Sagamore Racing, Allen Rosenblum and The Club Racing, LLC’s Miss Temple City became the first filly in 22 years to win the 31st running of the $1,000,000 Grade 1 Shadwell Turf Mile Stakes at Keeneland Racecourse in Lexington, Kentucky. Before that, her last victory came by way of the Grade 1 Maker’s 46 Mile Stakes. Miss Temple City is the first filly to ever win the race.
Trained by Fair Hill, Maryland-based Graham Motion and ridden by jockey Edgar Prado, the four-year-old filly by Temple City out of Glittering Tax has an already historical 2016 campaign and now prepares for the Grade 1 Breeders’ Cup Mile.
“This is 100 percent about the filly Miss Temple City,” said Hunter Rankin, president of Sagamore Racing, after the Shadwell Mile. “We’ve believed for a long time that she is an elite horse and she proved it again today. This is a true team effort with Graham Motion, Edgar Prado, The Club Racing, LLC and Allen Rosenblum, and we couldn’t be more proud to be associated with these special people.”
Miss Temple City also made an impressive showing this year finishing 4th in the Group 2 Duke of Cambridge Stakes at Royal Ascot in Berkshire, England. In her inspiring 2015 visit to Royal Ascot, Miss Temple City finished 4th in the Group 1 Coronation Stakes – a mere two lengths behind the winner.
