Del Mar: Mo Forza wins second straight turf derby

Mo Forza ($7.60) closed from a stalking position to win Saturday's Grade 1 Hollywood Derby, his career debut at the highest level, second straight stakes win and third consecutive victory.

Ridden by Paco Lopez, Mo Forza finished three-quarters of a length in front of 5-1 Neptune's Storm, who was a half-length clear of 7-1 Standard Deviation.

Digital Age finished fourth, followed by Succeedandsurpass, Originaire, Proud Pedro, Henley's Joy, Nolde, Mr Dumas, Moody Jim and Uncle Bull.

Mo Forza, who was favored, ran 1 1-8 miles on turf in 1:48.57 on a good course for trainer Peter Miller and owners Bardy Farm and OG Boss.

Mo Forza, a colt by Uncle Mo, won a maiden race on turf in his sixth start at SAnta Anita on Sept. 29 and his stakes debut in the Grade 2 Twilight Derby at Santa Anita on Nov. 2.
