G. Watts Humphrey’s Frivolous, the three-time Churchill Downs stakes winner who was fifth in the Breeders’ Cup Distaff (GI), is under consideration to face males in the 141st running of the $500,000 Clark Handicap Presented by Norton Healthcare (GI) on Friday Nov. 27, which would be the final start of her career according to trainer Vicki Oliver.
The 5-year-old daughter of Empire Maker, a winner of five races and $750,718 in 24 starts, has a record 7-3-0-2 at Churchill Downs. She won last year’s Falls City Handicap (GII) at odds of 19-1, this summer’s Fleur de Lis Handicap (GII) at 32-1 and the Locust Grove in September as the 6-5 favorite.
“She’s already won the Falls City and this will be her last race,” Oliver said. “She’ll get some weight since she’s a filly and it’s a handicap race. If she gets some light weight it’s worth a shot. We’ve got nothing to lose.”
