Round Four of the match between Turbulent Descent and Zazu, on Saturday in the Santa Anita Oaks, went to Turbulent Descent, giving her a 3-1 edge, but the manner in which both horses finished indicates the rivalry may be over. They are headed in different directions, with Turbulent Descent off the trail to the Kentucky Oaks, while Zazu is very much on it.
Turbulent Descent got first run on Zazu on the final turn of the Grade 1, $250,000 Oaks, but she just lasted to win the 1 1/16-mile race for 3-year-old fillies by a neck. It was the fourth win in five starts for Turbulent Descent, her second Grade 1 win, her second victory at 1 1/16 miles, and avenged her lone loss, which came in last month's Las Virgenes Stakes to Zazu.
