The Pepsi Bassinet Stakes

Devil House wired the field to win the Pepsi Bassinet Stakes at River Downs on Saturday. The two-year-old daughter of Chester House captured her first stakes victory and extended her winning streak to three races. Taletobetold finished second. Beautiful Venue and V.I.P. Princess finished in a dead heat for third. Equibase's chart of the race is available free for the next few days. Marty McGee's report from the Daily Racing Form is available here. Thanks to my dad, Chuck Sonenshein, for providing photographs.
