About
The Turfway Park R8 Queen Stakes feature Dala, a 5yo b foaled in the United States and trained by Eoin G. Harty. Sired by Hard Spun out of Lucknow, Dala has accumulated four wins so far. Its biggest triumph came on 17th Nov 2025 at Churchill Downs, where it claimed the $134000.00 Race 9. The horse has consistently been profitable for bettors, and backing Dala throughout its career would have yielded a 151% return on investment.
