Doubledogdare Stakes Race Favorites

Pachattack - will make her first start of 2012 after a fairly productive 2011. Last time out Pachattack was third in the Grade 1 Breeders' Cup Ladies Classic and before that finished second on this course in the Grade 1 Juddmonte Spinster Stakes on October 9th. She also had a second in the Grade 1 Personal Ensign Invitational Stakes at Saratoga a month before that. Pachattack has raced in five straight graded stakes races with a win, two seconds, a third and a disappointing eighth in the Grade 1 Beverly D. Stakes at Arlington last spring. She loves the big races and fares very well in most!
