NEW YORK (AP) — Lady Cohiba, the 2-5 favorite, splashed to a 312-length victory in the slop over Lasamanamama in the $58,800 May Night Stakes for 2-year-old fillies originally scheduled for the turf at Aqueduct.
Lady Cohiba, an also-eligible who would not have run had the race remained on the grass, improved to 2 for 2 for trainer Christophe Clement. Jose Lezcano was aboard as she ran the mile in 1:41.38, paying $2.80, $2.10 and $2.10. Lasamanamama returned $3.30 and $2.50 while Court of Dreams returned $3.30.
