2013 Noble Damsel Stakes Race Favorite Entries

Better Lucky - won the Grade 1 Matriarch at 35-1 odds to conclude her 2012 campaign and was an OK third in her first start of 2013 - in the Grade 1 Jenny Wiley Stakes behind Centre Court among others at Keeneland April 13. Last time out she continued to look good - a second to Stephanie's Kitten in the Grade 1 Just a Game Stakes on this track in June. She has placed in four straight starts - all Grade 1 stakes. If there is one thing we know about Better Lucky it is that she will be competitive each and every time out. She is the 9-5 favorite on the morning line and rightfully so, she carries the top weight of 123 pounds and she departs from post 3 with Javier Castellano aboard.

Hungry Island - Shug McGaughey trainee won the Grade 2 Churchill Distaff Mile in May 2012 and followed that up with a decent third in the 2012 Just a Game Stakes a month after that. She was a disappointing fifth in the Grade 1 Diana Stakes last July but looked good after that - a second in the 2012 Ballston Spa, a third in the Grade 1 First Lady Stakes, a win in an Allowance at Keeneland April 7, a third in the 2013 Just a Game Stakes behind Better Lucky to follow a respectable second in the 2013 Churchill Distaff Turf Mile May 4. Last time out was her first off-the-board finish in over a year - a fourth in the Grade 2 Ballston Spa at Saratoga August 24. Hungry Island is the second choice on the morning line at 2-1 odds and departs from the outside post with John Velazquez in the saddle.
