Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted February 3, 2024 Journalists Posted February 3, 2024 Showing a flair for drama, LIFE'S AN AUDIBLE (f, 3, Audible–Catkins, by Data Link) waited until late and made it close in victory over last-out maiden winner Style Points (Oscar Performance) in the GIII Sweetest Chant S. at Gulfstream Park Saturday. The chestnut lingered second from last behind :23.59 and :47.06 early fractions before swinging out to the far outside on the turn for her rally. It was at the same time that Style Points found room on the rail from her stalking spot and the two made it a battle in the closing strides. Style Points actually got the first jump, but Life's an Audible at 9-5 wore her down to prevail by about a neck. Dynamic Pricing (Ire) (Night of Thunder {Ire}) was third. With an off-the-board finish in the GI Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf sandwiched between a second last out in Gulfstream's Jan. 6 Ginger Brew S. and another runner-up placing in the Oct. 4 GII Miss Grillo S. at Belmont at the Big A, Life's an Audible was winning her first black-type event in the Sweetest Chant. She was a $200,000 OBS March 2-year-old purchase last year by West Bloodstock, agent for Repole Stable after working in :10 1/5. The same connections also took the Sweetest Chant last year with Cairo Consort (Cairo Prince). O-Repole Stable; B-Susan Moulton (Ky.); T-Todd Pletcher; J-Irad Ortiz, Jr. The post Life’s an Audible Gets First Stakes Win in Sweetest Chant appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
