Jockey Krista Carignan rides Golden Sunset to victory in Fort Erie Slots Cup.

The daughter of Mutakddim won by 1 ½ lengths under leading rider Krista Carignan for owner/trainer Tony Adamo.

Golden Sunset sat 3rd in the early stages behind early pace setter Snow Rite. When Carignan asked the 6-year-old chestnut mare for her best, she kicked into another gear. “We broke great, stayed out of the way and then I brought her home,” explained Carignan. This is Krista Carignan’s first stakes victory. “I could get used to this,” said the jubilant jockey.

Golden Sunset is now 7 for 8 lifetime at Fort Erie. Adamo claimed the mare on April 11 for $8,000. She has won 3 of 4 starts for her new connections.

Golden Sunset paid $8.20, $5.40 and $4.00. Snow Rite, at 56-1 held on for second and paid $40.80 and $10.90. The favourite Mindemoya finished third and returned $3.50.

Parking and Admission is always free.
