Street Cry, making his first start since he won the $6 million Dubai World Cup for his owners, Godolphin Racing, on March 23, drew off to win the Grade 1 Foster by 6 1/2 lengths over Dollar Bill, who finished another 2 1/4 lengths ahead of Tenpins in a field of eight older horses.
Street Cry, a homebred 4-year-old by the Mr. Prospector sire Machiavellian, returned $6.20 after finishing in 1:47.84. The clocking was the second-fastest in the 21-year history of the Foster, topped only by Victory Gallop in 1999.
Congaree, the 6-5 favorite under Pat Day, faded to finish sixth, beaten 11 1/2 lengths. Congaree was the third losing favorite in the last five runnings of the Foster for trainer Bob Baffert, who also was defeated with Silver Charm in 1998 and Captain Steve last year.
