Stalking the pace Desert Law, when asked, took control of the race with a powerful run through the stretch to score by seven widening lengths.

“I’ve been working him the last three weeks and he’s been training amazing. I told Carla, anything, six or 6 ½ (furlongs) and he’ll be tough. I thought the speed would go today and it worked out good for us” rider Rafael Bejarano.

Winning trainer Carla Gaines, “He has been training fantastic, he loves the track. He’s one of those that just glides over this deeper racetrack. His works have been phenomenal and he’s run out of conditions.

“The Cal-bred program is great because you are restricted to Cal-breds, so it’s all good!”
