Rags to Riches, the 3-year-old filly out of trainer Todd Pletcher's barn, became the first filly since 1905 to win the Belmont Stakes as she bested Curlin in a spectacular stretch run Saturday.
Getting five pounds from her six male rivals, she moved four-wide off the final turn and took dead-aim at the Preakness winner, nosing in front at the top of the stretch and staying there to the delight of the crowd.
