INGLEWOOD, Calif. (Nov. 16, 2008) - Evita Argentina, last much of the way, closed from eighth at the top of the stretch under jockey Tyler Baze to score a dramatic 1½-length victory over front-running favorite Mi Chiamano Mimi in Sunday's $111,100 Moccasin Stakes at Hollywood Park.
Evita Argentina, who beat Stardom Bound in the Sorrento at Del Mar before chasing her home in the Del Mar Debutante and Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies, was 11th entering the far turn and only had three fillies behind her when she straightened for home.
