Doha, Qatar: Shisospicy (Mitole), the talented 3-year-old filly, confirmed her class with a dominant victory in the Gr.2 AGS Music City Stakes over 1300m at Kentucky Downs in the US. The race, for 3-year-old fillies only, drew a field of 12.

Trained by Jose Francisco D'Angelo, ridden by Irad Ortiz Jr. and racing in the colours of Morplay Racing LLC & Qatar Racing Ltd., the filly was already a Gr.3 winner after her wide-margin triumph in the Mamzelle Stakes over 1100m at Churchill Downs earlier this year. With this latest performance, she has now risen to become a Gr.2 winner.

Breaking sharply from the stalls, Shisospicy went straight to the front, but soon had company as Gata Brazil (Into Mischief) pressed her on the outside. The pair set a strong pace, but as they reached the final bend, Gata Brazil began to weaken. Shisospicy, still travelling strongly, was left alone in front, with all her rivals under pressure behind her.

Once into the home straight, she quickened again, moving further clear with every stride.

She never looked in danger and crossed the line an impressive three lengths ahead. Cloe (Tiz The Law) finished second to give trainer D'Angelo a 1-2, while the British challenger Tabiti (Kingman) ran on for third.

Bred by Bill & Corinne Heiligbrodt, Shisospicy is out of Mischief Galore (Into Mischief), a triple winner, once on dirt over 1200m and twice on turf over 1000m at three.
