Raging Sea Runs Down Idiomatic Under The Wire In Personal Ensign Upset

[Wandering Eyes]

In a race billed as the renewed rivalry between Idiomatic (Curlin) and Randomized (Nyquist), it was 6-1 upsetter RAGING SEA (f, 4, Curlin–Stormy Welcome, by Storm Cat) who got there in the shadow of the wire to earn Grade I glory in the GI Personal Ensign Stakes at Saratoga Friday. One of two entries for Chad Brown, the last-out GII Shuvee Stakes winner was poised to pounce on a pace duel that developed early between stablemate Randomized and champion Idiomatic. With only Brad Cox's Idiomatic left at the top of the lane, Raging Sea launched from the center of the track and gained with every stride, overtaking last year's Eclipse-winning older dirt female just in the final jumps to get her first Grade I win and top the Curlin-sired exacta. Lifetime Record: 11-6-1-1.
