Forest Uproar on Saturday ran the slowest 1 1/16-mile race you may ever see in North America – and in so doing became a stakes winner.

A complete pace void in the Marie Krantz Handicap on turf led to a glacial pace, with early leader Caminadora, who usually is a deep closer, setting splits of 28.65 seconds for the opening quarter-mile and 55.85 for the half. Forest Uproar tracked the pacesetter, took over in the stretch, and won the Krantz by three lengths, running 1 1/16 miles miles in 1:51.30, which would be a modest time for a 1 1/8-mile race.
