(Saturday, October 12, 2002) - No Tools Required, a 3-year-old filly facing older horses for the first time, won her third consecutive stakes race this year with a powerful finishing kick in Saturday night's Gr. 3 Rheudasil Handicap at Lone Star Park in Grand Prairie, Texas. The Texas-bred daughter of Jody O Toole won the 350-yard contest in 17.55 seconds, a neck ahead of dead-heat second place finishers In The First Place and Mena Magic.

Eddie Cox Jr. rode the winner for owner Julie Pilgrim and trainer Ronald Wayne Gilmer.

No Tools Required raised her career earnings to $117,209 with the $12,000 winner's share of the purse. The filly has won nine of 13 starts, including two stakes at Sam Houston this summer.

Austiana, Eye This Chic, Style With Substance, Feefifowho, Easy Te Form, The Cheetah and Mystical Rainbow completed the order of finish.
