American trainer, rider win at Royal Ascot againJun 17 2009 12:15PM
Associated Press ASCOT, England (AP) Jealous Again has given trainer Wesley Ward and jockey John Velazquez a second win in two days at Royal Ascot with a victory in the Queen Mary Stakes. Bursting out of the starting gate, the 2-year-old filly overpowered the field and finished five lengths ahead of Misheer in Wednesday's race. A day earlier, the Ward-trained Strike The Tiger, with Velazquez aboard, became the first American-trained horse to win at Royal Ascot in the Windsor Castle Stakes. Also Wednesday, Vision D'Etat won the Prince of Wales's Stakes by a half length over 6-4 favorite Tartan Bearer. The 4-year-old colt from France made a powerful run from last to first in the final eighth-mile to win the Group 1 race. (Copyright 2009 by The Associated Press. All Rights Reserved.)
