NEW YORK (AP) Holiday's Jewel split horses in deep stretch to win the $77,000 allowance feature for fillies and mares Friday at Belmont Park.

It was a bumpy run through the lane with Pebble Beach Baby, the second-place finisher, being disqualified to fifth for interference.

Holiday's Jewel got up by a nose, her fourth win in 30 starts. The 5-year-old ridden by Israel Rodriguez and trained by Mitchell Friedman ran the mile in 1:37.66.

Holiday's Jewel paid $17.60, $7.80 and $5. Rock Me Mama, elevated into the place spot on the disqualification, returned $24.20 and $9.20, and Whispering paid $5.40 to show.
