CHAMPAGNE D'ORO WON!!!

In a shocking upset, Champagne d'Oro held off favored Amen Hallelujah and Tanda to win the grade I Acorn Stakes by a half length.

Ridden well by Martin Garcia, Champagne d'Oro was rushed out of the gate to take the early lead and got a perfect ground saving trip.

Amen Hallelujah, who was forced to go four wide into the stretch, closed well but could not find enough late. Tanda, who circled the field seven wide, finished third.

More updates soon. . .
