Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted July 26 Journalists Share Posted July 26 World Record (c, 3, Gun Runner–Marwa {GB}, by Exceed And Excel {Aus}) added blinkers and never gave the field a chance in the GII Amsterdam Stakes. A frontrunning winner at second asking May 27, and third last out June 30 in the Maxfield Stakes, both at Churchill Downs, the bay sped through a first quarter in :21.56 and a half in :44.64 as 4-5 favorite Jefferson Street (Street Sense) gave pursuit. Turning for home, it looked like the latter would briefly mount a rally but ultimately the winner proved too much for his rivals, winning with air to spare. Valentine Candy (Justify) ran third. World Record (6-1) doesn't set one in GII Amsterdam but the 3-year-old runs pretty darned good, winning by 6 3/4 lengths for Flavien Prat and @BrissetRodolphe.
