Owner Michael Scheffres got his first stakes win, when Factor It In won the Challedon Stakes at Laurel Park by 2 3/4 lengths. Under Jorge Ruiz, the gray 6-year-old rated off the pace towards the inside, then split horses as they entered the stretch. He overhauled early leader Backnthewoods in the last eighth and drew off from there. He ran seven furlongs in 1:24.16.
Trained by Carlos Mancilla, Factor It In is the 9th 2022 Stakes winner to have graduated from the famed Hidden Brook Florida training center.
