Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted April 6, 2024 Journalists Posted April 6, 2024 Rigney Racing homebred Buchu (f, 3, Justify–Flowering Peach {Ire}, by Galileo {Ire}), winner of the GII Jessamine S. over this course last year at two, made her 3-year-old debut a winning one and kept her Keeneland record perfect with a late-closing score in the $400,000 GII Appalachian S. Saturday. Poolside With Slim (Ire) (Churchill {Ire}) set early fractions of :22.88 and :47.25, while favorite Pounce (Lookin At Lucky) tracked from third and Buchu rated midpack in the clear. Midway on the turn, Buchu unfurled a sharp turn of foot as she circled the field and hit the lead in a no-nonsense effort. Mo Fox Givin (Mo Town) and Dancing N Dixie (Neolithic) chased her home in second and third, respectively. The final time for the one mile was 1:36.36. O/B-Rigney Racing LLC (Ky); T-Philip Bauer. BUCHU ($15.04) showed her love for @KeenelandRacing winning the $400,000 Appalachian Stakes (G2) under jockey Martin Garcia. The 3-year-old Justify (@coolmoreamerica) filly was trained by Philip Bauer!
