It doesn’t happen all that often but it looked like it today for Master Shade in the Middle Stage Stakes at Aqueduct.  Master Shade came over from Italy and has taken a couple of races to get used to it over here but she put all her learning experiences together in one go today!  Rated beautifully just off the pace, Alan Garcia was able to pull her out at the head of the stretch to win with a hand ride.  Congratulations to Team Valor International.{jcomments on}
