Cathryn Sophia wins Kentucky Oaks at Churchill Downs (The Associated Press)
Cathryn Sophia took charge entering the stretch and rolled to victory Friday in the 142nd Kentucky Oaks Friday at Churchill Downs. After running third last month in the Ashland at Keeneland, she got a good start along with favorite Rachel’s Valentina in the $1 million showcase for 3-year-old fillies. Cathryn Sophia found her opening at the top of the stretch, overtook the fading Lewis Bay and pulled away to beat Land Over Sea by 2 3/4 lengths.
