Mini Sermon wore down a determined Lady Marlboro to win the $150,000 Top Flight Handicap for fillies and mares by a nose Friday at Aqueduct. Mini Sermon was never far off the pace as the front-running Lady Marlboro fended off an early bid from Pool Land. Eibar Coa angled Mini Sermon three wide into the stretch and the 3-year-old prevailed in the final strides of the two-horse battle to the wire.
