BALTIMORE – Sweet Vendetta, under Channing Hill, rallied past Shes All Eltish in deep stretch to win the Grade 2, $200,000 Black-Eyed Susan Stakes Friday at Pimlico.
Seattle Smooth finished third with Highest Class finishing fourth. Bsharpsonata, the 5-2 favorite, finished seventh in the eight-horse field.
Sweet Vendetta, a New York-bred daughter of Stephen Got Even, was making her first start since winning the Andover Way Stakes over a sloppy Aqueduct inner track in March. She is owned by entertainer David Cassidy and Team Penney Racing and trained by Gary Contessa.
Sweet Vendetta ran 1 1/16 miles in 1:49.60 and returned $17.40 to win.
