Ellamira has Plans for a Sunday Honeymoon

From Santa Anita Publicity

ARCADIA, Calif. (May 26, 2022) — A two-time stakes winner at Golden Gate Fields, the Steve Specht-trained Ellamira is the lone California-bred entered in Sunday’s $100,000 Grade III Honeymoon Stakes for 3-year-old fillies at Santa Anita.

Allamira rallied for a solid one length win going a mile on grass in the restricted Campanile Stakes on May 1 and will hope for a lively pace Sunday with Frank Alvarado riding her back.

A California-bred filly by Street Boss out of the Ghostzapper mare Tuedays With P, Ellamira is owned by her breeder, Cole Ranch Partners, LP and will be making her third start on the Santa Anita turf, having run a pair of credible fourths in both the Grade III Sweet Life Stakes at 6 ½ furlongs down the hillside Feb. 12 and in the Cal Cup Oaks at one mile on turf four starts back on Jan. 15.  With three wins and a second from eight starts, she has earnings of $136,806.
