Joyful Victory breezed five furlongs in :59 1/5 this morning at Churchill Downs. The gray daughter of Tapit looked wonderful doing so as she cut off splits of :11, :22, :34 1/5 and :46 2/5. She is preparing for the Kentucky Oaks and looks plenty ready to give it her best effort after that work.
This lass has been highly impressive in 2011 with wins in the Honeybee and Fantasy Stakes. She cruised in both wins and beat the up and coming Arienza in the Fantasy. She sat just off the pace in that race before blowing past Arienza like it was nothing.
