Valadorna

Valadorna won her second career start at Keelenand Race Course after a runner-up finish in her debut in September 2016 for owner-breeder Barbara Banke's Stonestreet Stables. She then finished second in the Grade 1 14 Hands Winery Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies in her first attempt in a stakes race.

The bay Curlin filly returned in 2017 and made her first race as a 3-year-old a winning one with a half-length win in an allowance race at Fair Grounds in January. She then ran third in the Grade 3 Rachel Alexandra Stakes at Fair Grounds, after which she was given an extended break from training. She returned in November at Churchill Downs and ran second in an allowance race. She regained her winning form in her next start when taking an allowance race at Fair Grounds. Valadorne closed her 3-year-old season with her first stakes victory in the Tiffany Lass Stakes at Fair Grounds on Dec. 26.

In her 4-year-old bow, Valadorna finished sixth in the Grade 3 Houston Ladies Classic Stakes at Sam Houston Race Park. She followed with her first career graded stakes win in the Grade 3 Hilliard Lyons Doubledogdare Stakes at Keeneland, where she rallied from seventh, more than five lengths off the pace, to prevail by three-quarters of a length.
