Feeling Fancy, dominant in three races at Emerald Downs, aims for another stakes victory in the $50,000 Irish Day Handicap on Sunday, June 6.

A dozen 3-year-old fillies are nominated to the Irish Day Handicap, a one-mile test on the road to the Aug. 14 Washington Oaks.

A Kentucky-bred daughter of Sky Mesa, Feeling Fancy (6-3-0-0-$51,835) is three-for-three at Emerald Downs—by a combined 16 ½ lengths and comes off a 2 ½-length victory over Knight Raider in the May 9 Federal Way Handicap. Her trainer, Frank Lucarelli, has been on fire at Emerald Downs, leading the standings with 19 wins including stakes triumphs by Feeling Fancy and Posse Power in the Auburn Handicap.

Knight Raider, Top Juvenile Filly of 2009, is winless in two starts as a 3-year-old for trainer Doris Harwood. Nevertheless, the Washington-bred by Tribunal ran a good race as the runner-up in the Federal Way, and she was hampered by a wide trip while finishing sixth in the May 24 Emerald Downs Handicap on the bullring at Hastings Racecourse.

Sis’s Sis, two-for-two this season for Jim Penney, appears ready to tackle stakes horses, while another Penney runner, Private Fortune, is stakes placed twice at Emerald Downs including a third in the Federal Way Handicap.

New shooters include Ghost Girl, a nicely-bred Ghostzapper filly who finished second and third in recent allowance sprints in Southern California; Sheza Foxy Jackpot, a five-time winner including four wins around two turns in Northern California, and Tapit So Lightly, a daughter of Tapit who won a maiden special weight at Golden Gate Fields following a second-place finish in the Oregon Oaks at Portland Meadows.
