Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted October 5, 2018 Journalists Share Posted October 5, 2018 ‘TDN Rising Star‘ Restless Rider (Distorted Humor) took advantage of her low draw in Friday’s GI Darley Alcibiades S. to sit the box-seat trip and pulled away through the short Keeneland stretch to post a convincing three-length victory and earn a spot in the gate for the GI Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies in 29 days’ time. Drawn three and adding Lasix after suffering her first loss in three starts at the hands of Sippican Harbor (Orb) in the Sept. 1 GI Spinaway S. at Saratoga, Restless Rider was part of the early pace before coming back nicely to Brian Hernandez, Jr., who settled the filly in third with cover behind pacesetting Meadow Dance (Jimmy Creed), a latest third behind Into Trouble (Into Mischief) in the Arlington-Washington Lassie S. Given a bit of rein to take closer order entering the second turn, Restless Rider was guided to the outside of Meadow Dance midway on the bend, kicked into a clear lead and was in hand the final 40 yards. Reflect (Trappe Shot) sat a ground-saving trip beneath James Graham and came with a mild close to finish a clear second, while Meadow Dance held for third. Chocolate Kisses (Candy Ride {Arg}) closed from last to be fourth, albeit well-beaten. Restless Rider becomes the 17th Grade I winner for her sire and 18th as a broodmare sire for Unbridled’s Song. Lifetime Record: 4-3-1-0. O-Three Chimneys Farm LLC & Fern Circle Stable; B-Stonestreet Thoroughbred Holdings LLC (KY); T-Ken McPeek.
