Joss Sabille, assistant to trainer Michael Matz, said Somali Lemonade
was feeling great the day after she won Thursday’s JPMorgan Chase
Jessamine (G3) and earned a spot in the starting gate for the $1 million
Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf (G2) on November 4 at Churchill
Downs.
“She’s really happy with herself,” he said about the 2-year-old daughter of Lemon Drop Kid who races for Caroline Forgason.

said Somali Lemonade, who is now unbeaten in her two career starts,
would remain at Keeneland until the end of the Fall Meet before heading
to Churchill for the Breeders’ Cup. She’ll have today and tomorrow off,
jog on Sunday, have a day off, and gallop on Tuesday.
