Brant and Brown Continue Domination of First Lady Presented by UK Healthcare

Baldo Hernandez, assistant to Chad Brown, reported the trainer’s three runners from Saturday’s First Lady (G1) Presented by UK HealthCare exited the race in good order with immediate plans to be determined. 

Peter Brant’s Gina Romantica and In Italian (GB) finished first and second, respectively. This is the third consecutive First Lady victory for Brant, who now has won eight graded stakes here – all Grade 1 races – to earn a Keeneland Tray as part of the track’s signature Milestone Trophy Program.

Brown recorded his third consecutive 1-2 finish in the race. He has saddled the winner of the First Lady Presented by UK HealthCare the past six years. 

Brown’s other runner, Whitebeam (GB), finished fourth.
