$70,000 Lakeview Thoroughbred Farms Stakes
FIVE STAR MEETING

INGLEWOOD, Calif. (Apr. 26, 2003) -- Five Star Meeting pulled away late in the stretch to take the $70,000 Lakeview Thoroughbred Farms Stakes by one length Saturday on Gold Rush Day at Hollywood Park.

The daughter of General Meeting, out of the Star de Naskra mare Star Eighty Eight, was bred by Clydene Boots and sold at Barretts as a yearling for $50,000. She is a full sister to the stakes-placed Star's Millennium and a half-sister to the stakes-placed Reno Hightower.

This was Five Star Meeting's second win in three career starts and raised her earnings to $77,520.

Five Star Meeting, the lukewarm favorite at 3-1, is owned by Capestro & Emerald Q Partners, was trained by Paula Capestra and ridden by David Flores, who picked up the mount from Mike Smith. She ran the seven furlongs in 1:23.29.

Watermelon Wine was second and Saxony was third.
