Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted November 30, 2024 Journalists Share Posted November 30, 2024 WinStar Farm's 'TDN Rising Star' IMPULSE BUY (f, 2, Speightstown–Jojo Warrior, by Pioneerof the Nile) took advantage of wicked fractions for the opening half-mile of Saturday's Fern Creek Stakes at Churchill Downs and raced past her rivals in the final furlong to record a comfortable victory. Off as the 9-4 third betting choice, the homebred was away only fairly from her outside draw and was second last early on as favored 'TDN Rising Star' Shisospicy (Mitole) was pressed through a quarter in 21.70. Impulse Bay made eye-catching progress at the rail leaving the 3 1/2-furlong pole and was guided to the outside by Tyler Gaffalione for a clear crack at the leaders nearing the stretch if good enough. Shisospicy battled on bravely despite the swift pace, but Impulse Buy went to her under a full head of steam approaching the sixteenth pole and drove clear. The previously unbeaten Echo Sound (Echo Town) was up for second over Shisospicy. Sales history: $200,000 Ylg '23 KEESEP. Lifetime Record: 4-2-2-0. O/B-WinStar Farm LLC (KY); T-Rodolphe Brisset.
