Devil His Due outran Bertrando in the $500,000 Philip H. Iselin Handicap today in their continuing duel for racing's highest honors. But while they were duking it out, both were outrun in the final yards by Valley Crossing, a horse with a 14-race losing streak, who rocketed through the deep homestretch to win by the length of his head.

It was the first time that Valley Crossing had won since March 22, 1992, and he picked a good time to do it: Devil His Due, with four stakes victories already this year, seemed to be taking giant strides in the direction of the ultimate honor, the title Horse of the Year. All the candidates still have some milestones to pass, and Devil His Due still has shining credentials, but some mischief was added to the rankings today by the outsider who ran past the two favorites in the Iselin.
