Stonestreet Stables’ stakes-winning filly Wink was made the 3-1 morning line favorite in the field of 13 three-year-old fillies entered in Saturday’s $110,000 Mamzelle Overnight Stakes at Churchill Downs.
The five-furlong Mamzelle, run over the Matt Winn Turf Course, is carded as the featured Race 10 with a post time of 5:26 p.m. The first of 11 races will go at 12:45 p.m.
Trained by Wesley Ward, Wink enters the Mamzelle following a victory in the $75,000 Melody of Colors Stakes in late March at Gulfstream Park. Wink is one of three Ward-trained fillies to enter the Mamzelle. Her stablemates Amanzi Yimpilo (IRE) and Illegal Smile both enter the affair following stakes victories in their most recent starts.
In Amanzi Yimpilo’s last start, the daughter of the former Ward-trained No Nay Never, won the $102,000 Speakeasy Stakes at Santa Anita in late September. Illegal Smile enters the Mamzelle following a victory in the $100,000 Stewart Manor Stakes at Aqueduct in early November.
Ricardo Santana Jr. will ride Amanzi Yimpilo from post No. 7, Tyler Gaffalione will be aboard Illegal Smile from post 3 and James Graham has the call on Wink from post 4.
