Distaff Turf

-- Black Mamba rallied from far back to win Sunday's $150,000 Beverly Hills Handicap at Hollywood Park by 1 1/4 lengths over Solva, with Green Lyons third. Black Mamba, a 5-year-old, New Zealand-bred daughter of Black Minnaloushe, ran the 10 furlongs on firm turf in 2:01.25. Garrett Gomez rode for trainer John Sadler, who dominated the weekend's stakes in Southern California. "We wanted to have a good clean trip," Sadler said. "She had a lot of trouble in the last one, so we were more concerned that she got a smooth trip today. I told Garrett that she's very steady and not hard to ride."

-- My Princess Jess got a big lead at the top of the stretch in Saturday's $150,000 Boiling Springs Stakes for 3-year-old fillies at Monmouth Park, then held on to win by a neck over Much Obliged. Forest Trail finished third. My Princess Jess, a Florida-bred Stormy Atlantic filly out of the Pleasant Colony mare Jewell of Jewels, ran the 1 1/16 miles on firm going in 1:39.81. Joe Bravo rode for trainer Barclay Tagg.
