Piloted by Robby Albarado, it was an easy 4 3/4 length victory for J'ray at Fair Grounds' nine-furlong Grade III turf race for fillies and mares four-years and older.
Following a slow pace from fourth position, J'ray made her bid for the win from the turn and drove clear in the stretch. Assistant trainer Anthony Tamborino saddled the winning horse for Todd Pletcher. Second place was a nose to Scarlett Butterfly trained by Mark Frostad, with the pace-setter Candy Ball completing the trifecta.
French import Royal Copenhagen was scratched, along with Christmas Lily and Baghdaria.
