Breeders' Cup Distaff watch: Sophie Doyle on Street Band
Jockey Sophie Doyle talks about Cotillion winner Street Band, on whom she won her first Grade 1 race, and taking the next step against older fillies and mares in the Longines Breeders' Cup Distaff at Santa Anita Park. Street Band is trained by Kentucky-based Larry Jones and co-owned by Jones and Ray Francis of Henderson, Ky., Medallion Racing and MyRacehorse.
As part of our coverage of Kentucky-based horses in the Breeders' Cup World Championships Nov. 1-2 at Santa Anita Park, we speak with Phillip Shelton of Medallion Racing about Distaff contender Street Band, the Larry Jones-trained and co-owned and bred (with wife Cindy and Ray Francis of Henderson, Kentucky). She comes into the Distaff off wins in the Fair Grounds Race Course and Slots Oaks, Indiana Grand Racing & Casino Oaks and Parx Casino's G1 Cotillion. Proud that Street Band earned her first victory last year at Ellis Park Racing
