OKLAHOMA CITY - Carsoncityprospect made her turf-racing debut a winning one, taking Sunday's featured $33,660 allowance race for fillies and mares. The bright gray 5-year-old moved through an opening at the rail as she left the turn in order to draw away to victory.

She pulled clear in the turf sprint to win by 2-1/4 lengths over Pure Platinum, who battled until late in the stretch. No Tears in Heaven came on with a rush through traffic to gain third.
