This was Monomoy Girl's first race since November 3, 2018 when she won the Longines Breeders' Cup Distaff (G1) which was also at Churchill Downs.
Red Dane finished second and Miss Bigly finished third in the fourth race at Churchill Downs, the first time the historic racetrack held races since March due the coronavirus pandemic.
There were no fans in attendance to watch the races.
