Frank's Rockette added to her already-full resume with a win in the Grade 2 Prioress Stakes under Junior Alvarado on Saturday, stalking a hot early pace and drawing away by daylight. The 3-year-old filly trained by Bill Mott was out of the gate quickly and settled in behind pacesetter Hello Beautiful along the backstretch. Reagan's Edge joined those two rivals through the turn, and the three briefly ran abreast before Frank's Rockette kicked clear mid-stretch, reaching a new gear effortlessly to win by 2 1/2 lengths.
Reagan's Edge held on for second and Center Aisle was third. The final time for the six furlongs was 1:08.89.
Frank's Rockette has finished first or second for her entire career, coming to this race off a narrow victory in the G3 Victory Ride. She also has runner-up efforts in the G2 Frizette, G2 Spinaway and G2 Adirondack to her credit for owner/breeder Frank Fletcher.
Frank's Rockette was bred in Kentucky and is the daughter of Into Mischief and Indian Charlie mare Rocket Twentyone.
Frank's Rockette was the race favorite and paid $5.10 to win. See the full chart here.
