Frankel-sired Soul Stirring captured the second jewel in the filly's Triple Crown on Sunday, comfortably winning the Japanese Oaks at Tokyo Racecourse.
Runaway favorite Soul Stirring did her legendary father of 10 Grade 1 wins proud, bouncing back from last month's disappointment of finishing third in the first race of the series, the 1,600-meter Oka-sho, by nosing the line in 2 minutes, 24.1 seconds over 2,400 meters on firm going.
Jockey Christophe Lemaire guided the Kazuo Fujisawa-trained filly for a victory of almost two lengths ahead of sixth choice Mozu Katchan. The second pick, Admire Miyabi, came in third another 2-1/2 lengths behind.
