Steinlen, making his first start since finishing second in the Breeders’ Cup Turf race behind 1988 champion turf filly Miesque in November, withstood the challenge of Peace to win the $60,000 Project Hope Purse at Santa Anita Thursday.
Ridden by Laffit Pincay, Steinlen equaled the turf course record of 1:34 1/5 for one mile while carrying 118 pounds. Peace, with Bill Shoemaker up, finished 5 lengths ahead of Exclusive Partner in the field of six.
Steinlen paid $3.40, $2.60 and $2.20.
