Kilograeme again in the DRF

By Jay Privman, DRF

The first two times Turbulent Descent and Zazu met, Turbulent Descent prevailed. But in their most recent meeting last month, Zazu finally got on the scoreboard. Round four between the two most accomplished 3-year-old fillies on the West Coast takes place Saturday, when they square off in the Grade 1, $250,000 Santa Anita Oaks.

The Oaks is being run as the fourth race on an 11-race card topped by the Santa Anita Handicap.
