CYPRESS, Calif. – Queen Bee to You joined trainer Andrew Lerner’s stable in mid-June. By the end of the month, she had provided the 30-year-old trainer with his first stakes win.
Queen Bee to You recorded an upset victory in the $100,351 Bertrando Stakes for California-bred milers at Los Alamitos on Saturday, holding on by a nose over 16-1 Tule Fog. Queen Bee to You was the only filly or mare in a field of six.
“I knew she was sharp,” Lerner said. “She was on her toes. I knew she’d put in a good effort.”
