Sitting just off the lead for much of the race, Afleet Express made a bold move around the turn to win the grade III $200,000 Pegasus Stakes by two lengths.
Afleet Again rallied late to grab second, completing an Afleet Alex exact.
Soaring Empire finished third, with Nacho Friend fourth.
Amazingly, Jackson Bend, the favorite, faded in the homestretch to finish either fifth or sixth. I'm not sure. Schoolyard Dreams was back there with him.
I'm so excited! Afleet Express is now a stakes winner!
