Oscar’s Hope secured a 1 1/2-length victory in the $150,000 Ozark Stakes for 3-year-old sprinters at Oaklawn on Monday. The horse, ridden by Luis Saez, denied trainer Mark Casse a stakes win as the favorite Ewing finished sixth after a poor start. This sprint race marked a strong return for Oscar’s Hope following a distant finish in the Smarty Jones Stakes.
