Rosie's a cozy winner in Senorita

"Today, I moved her a little sooner than I wanted, but it worked out OK. This

was another good learning experience for her, and I think she'll move forward in

the American Oaks, if that's where they choose to run her."

Andina rallied to catch even-money favorite City to City by a nose at the wire. The

5-2 runner-up returned $4.40 and $2.40 while capping the $18.10 exacta ($1).

City to City, who had stalked the front-running I'mneverwrong (Ire)

(Compton Place) through fractions of :24, :47 4/5 and 1:11 3/5, took the

lead turning for home but soon surrendered the advantage to Cozi Rosie.

Third place gave back $2.10, and the $1 trifecta was good for $28.90.

Triple Cream (Tapit) rounded out the $159.30 superfecta (5-7-6-8) ($1)

and was followed under the wire by I'mneverwrong, Hasty (Ire)

(Invincible Spirit) and Pulpit Magic (Pulpit). Elusive Galaxy (Ire)

(Elusive City) was scratched.

Cozi Rosie first attracted notice when breaking her maiden smartly in her

third career start, but her two-turn debut, over Santa Anita's Pro-Ride in

January. The chestnut captured an allowance/optional claimer next time out,

defeating eventual Sunland Park Oaks winner Harissa (Afleet Alex). Cozi Rosie

earned a crack at the top level in the Santa Anita Oaks (G1), but failed to make an

impact and retreated to fifth. Switched to the turf for the first time in the Providencia,

she appeared to be moving well, and in striking position, before being shut off

in the stretch. Cozi Rosie avenged that setback in the

Senorita, advancing her mark to 7-3-0-1, $127,280.

Out of the winning Golden Fleece mare Felidia (Ire), the Kentucky-bred is a

half-sister to Grade 2 hero Lexicon (Conquistador Cielo) and multiple stakes

scorer My Captain (Conquistador Cielo), both sprinters. She also has a pair of

younger half-siblings, an unnamed juvenile filly by Forest Wildcat and an

unnamed yearling colt by Giacomo. This is the family of St Leger (Eng-G1) hero

Lucarno (Dynaformer), England's co-highweight three-year-old stayer in 2007.
