NEW YORK (AP) — Miss Da Point, a 12-1 shot, won the $75,000 Judy Soda Stakes at Aqueduct on Sunday for her third straight victory.
Emmanuel Esquivel was aboard for his first stakes victory. Miss Da Point, trained by John Toscano, Jr., won by three-quarters of a length. The time was 1:39.96 for the mile on the fast track in the race for New York-bred fillies and mares.
Tahoe Tigress was second. Dreaming of Cara finished third but was disqualified and placed fifth for interference.
Miss Da Point paid $27.20, $9.60 and $5.60. Tahoe Tigress returned $5.20 and $3.10. Carameaway, Dreaming of Cara’s entrymate, was elevated to the show spot, paying $2.90.
The card’s ninth and final race was canceled when a tractor broke down on the track and could not be towed.
