One of two mares in the field, Party At The Banks found a seat fourth from post eight before Dave Palone sent her on her way.  The 5-year-old daughter of Break The Bank K-Beach Party As quickly overpowered the leader, Whats The Word, and defeated Donatover by 4-1/2 lengths. Barn Girl, the other mare in the race, earned show. The time equaled the mark established by Cowgirl Hall in 2014.

Ron Burke trains Party At The Banks, who lifted her career bankroll to $312,173, for Burke Racing Stable and Weaver Bruscemi LLC.

Mike Wilder piloted five winners on the 13-race card.
