NEW YORK (AP) Theophilia, the odds-on favorite, won the $69,000 allowance feature for fillies and mares on Friday at Aqueduct.
Never worse than third in the five-horse field, the lone 3-year-old in the race took charge at the top of the stretch and sped away to a 2 1/2 length win over Sustainable.
Jose Lezcano was aboard as Theophilia improved to 3-0-2 in six starts.
It was second straight Aqueduct feature for Hall of Fame trainer Bill Mott. Gigi's Kitten won on Thursday at 14-1.
