Jerold’s Princess let the early leaders duel, then went outside for the stretch run en route to a 1 1/2-length victory in the 2-year-old fillies’ division of Sunday’s $69,590 Louisiana Futurity.

It was Jerold’s Princess’ second consecutive victory for the GB Bowknot Stables.

Ridden by Richard Guidry and trained by C. D. Delahoussaye, Jerold’s Princess was fifth through much of the 6-furlong dash and finished in 1:14 4-5ths. She paid $8.80, $4 and $3.60.

Lance’s Live, the 3-2 favorite, rallied from fourth and paid $3 and $2.80. Classy Bayou showed for $4.20.

The winner, a gray 4-year-old daughter of Navajo, was ridden by E. T. Baird, who won Saturday’s Illinois Breeders Futurity aboard Silence At Dawn.
