At Gulfstream Park, private purchase Zofelle fell perilously short of picking up her second consecutive win, just missing by a nose to the multiple G1 winner Got Stormy in the G3 Honey Fox.
Owned by Heider Family Stables, Zofelle came into this race off a win in the G3 Marshua’s River. She earned a career best 95 Beyer Speed Figure for her efforts.
