Sweet Khaleesi wins Saturday Feature at GP



Sweet Khaleesi turned the tables  on Money or Love on Saturday, beating her by a neck in the $50,000 Sugarloaf Key Handicap at Gulfstream Park.

Sweet Khaleesi took the lead after a half mile and held off a late run by Money or Love to win the six-furlong dirt stakes for fillies and mares 3-years-old and up.  

Sweet Tooth Haven finished third, four and one-half lengths behind Money or Love, in the six-horse field.

Emisael Jaramillo rode Money or Love, who won in 1:10.34 on the track that listed as Sloppy and was sealed.

On July 29 at Gulfstream, Money or Love beat Sweet Khaleesi by a neck in the $50,000 Added Elegance Handicap at seven furlongs on dirt.

Emisael Jaramillo rode Sweet Khaleesi in the Sugarkoaf Key. He picked up the ride from Edgard Zayas, who was on board the 4-year-old filly in her three previous races.

Zayas was at  Saratoga Race Course on Saturday, and rode Gunnevera to a second place finish (behind West Coast) in the Travers Stakes (Grade 1).

Stan Gold trains Sweet Khaleesi, a Florida-bred homebred of Arindel.

The win on Saturday was the fourth for Sweet Khaleesi in fifteen career starts.
