SHELBYVILLE, IN—OCTOBER 25, 2025—A sharp late rally carried Absolute Domination to victory in the $30,000 Miss Roxie Little Juvenile Stakes on Saturday at Horseshoe Indianapolis.

The Indiana-bred two-year-old gelding covered 400 yards in 19.045 seconds, earning a speed index of 85, over a fast track under cloudy skies and a 7-mph crosswind.

Ridden by Fernando Morin, Vikina remained prominent throughout the race and was outfinished in the final strides to earn $6,000.
