Horse-by-Horse Analysis
Happymayleidy (Post 4, 2–1): Runhappy filly with sharp early speed. Santiago excels at Camarero sprints. Likely pace-setter.
Holly Grace (Post 8, 3–1): Volatile filly, strong late kick, Ortiz Jr. replacement rider J.C. Diaz Jr. gives tactical edge.
Strike Dancer (Post 3, 7–2): Rock Your World filly, Morales barn hot. Midpack closer who benefits if pace collapses.
My First Legacy (Post 6, 4–1): Midnight Storm filly, Navarro aboard. Consistent stalker, dangerous if pace is honest.
La Pasionaria (Post 7, 9–2): Maximus Mischief filly, improving each start. Figueroa’s aggressive style could put her in the mix.
Legendary Princess (Post 1, 10–1): Needs big improvement; rail draw helps but class test looms.
Wingy (Post 2, 10–1): Tactical filly, but lacks finishing punch against top tier.
Lesliani (Post 5, 10–1): Outsider; allowance form doesn’t match graded company.
Summary
The Clasico Accion de Gracias Stakes 2025 is shaping up as a speed vs. closer duel. Happymayleidy is the likely pace-setter, but Holly Grace and Strike Dancer loom with strong finishing kicks. My First Legacy and La Pasionaria are live exotics players. Expect a fast track, honest fractions, and a stretch battle between the top three.
