Miss Frost Looks to Extend Streak in Riskaverse
Dogwood Stable's Miss Frost looks to extend her win streak to three races in Friday's sixth running of the $100,000 Riskaverse for 3-year-old fillies going one mile on the inner turf course.
Trained by Tom Albertrani, Miss Frost won an entry-level allowance on July 10 at Belmont Park before scoring by a half-length in the $100,000 Tenski on August 11 at Saratoga. The sophomore daughter of two-time Horse of the Year Curlin is 2-for-3 lifetime at the Spa, her only loss coming when third in the P.G. Johnson last summer.
Hall of Fame jockey Edgar Prado will ride Miss Frost from post 2 as the 3-1 second choice on the morning line.
The winner of the 2013 P.G. Johnson, Ken and Sarah Ramsey's Granny Mc's Kitten, returns as the 9-5 program favorite for the Riskaverse off a three-quarter length victory in a 1 1/16-mile allowance on August 2 at the Spa. She also has two wins from three career Saratoga starts, losing her debut by a nose last summer to Miss Frost.
Meet-leading rider Javier Castellano will be aboard the daughter of Kitten's Joy from post 5.
Also in the Riskaverse are Prayed For, a maiden winner at the Spa in her August 9 debut; Fashion Fund, third by a length to Granny Mc's Kitten in the August 2 allowance; Latique, who returned from a six-month layoff with an allowance win at Monmouth July 25; New York Stallion Series stakes winner Old Harbor; three-time Florida-bred stakes winner Scandalous Act; and Irish-bred Nishanora making her second North American start.
Faith Hall and Vero Amore are entered for main track only.
