Union Jaque was a filly who was beginning to make her mark on the track. Since starting as a two year old and falling short of the win in her last start, she wasn’t able to go to the Breeders’ Cup as planned, instead, Winning Touch joined and took the place behind Georgies Girl. Jackie was ready for her seventh start of the year, which would be in the LaBroquerie Derby over nine furlongs on the turf. The race would be her first grade four start after she had achieved four wins and two places throughout the year, making her one of the most successful lightly raced horses on the Wire track. It was planned that she’d go to one of the Breeders Cup races for experience, but it didn’t look likely.
She was racing against four opponents today and would be starting wide, in Gate Five. In Gate One, Arachne would be starting. This filly showed that she could kick some derriere* by taking six wins this year. She was one win away from Grade Three, a huge accomplishment.
*Derriere is french for behind... or bottom.
