Twin B Shasta steamrolled over the foes she faced in the second division, winning by 4-3/4 lengths in a time of 1:55.3 for the tandem of driver Nick Steward and trainer Ray Farmer. Race favourite Inca Queen was second best, with Lady With A Weapon grabbing the show dough. The seven-year-old daughter of Million Dollar Cam is owned by Mike Kastel of Garfield Heights, OH.
