Last on the far turn, Reggane made a huge run on the far outside to defeat Miss Keller by a length in the grade I, $1,000,000 E.P. Taylor Stakes.
Ridden by Christophe Soumillon, Reggane sat well off of a slow early pace set by Akarlina. Second choice Shalanaya races in second, with Contredanse right there as well.
Rounding the far turn, Akarlina still led the way, but Shalanaya was making a run for the lead, as was Mekong Melody.
As the field turned for home, Miss Keller made a sudden, brilliant move to take the lead, but Reggane was charging relentlessly on the far outside and got up in time.
The final time was 2:03 and change. Shalanaya finished third, Contredanse fourth.
