Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted December 13, 2024 Journalists Share Posted December 13, 2024 6th-Gulfstream, $40,000, Msw, 12-13, 2yo, f, 1m, 1:41.21, ft, 1 1/4 lengths. RUTH (f, 2, Uncle Mo–Peppy Rafaela, by Bernardini), bet down to 3-5 favoritism for Todd Pletcher and owner/breeder Frank Batten, was a close-up third behind early pacesetter Queen in the Deck (Cairo Prince) through the opening quarter in :24.81. Fanned out widest of the group around the far turn and relegated back several slots, Ruth responded in kind to urging from jockey Irad Ortiz, Jr. and found a high gear coming to the line, powering past the leader to win going away by 1 1/4 lengths. Ruth is a full-sister to Mopotism, GSW & MGISP, $876,090 who sold for $1,050,000 at FTKNOV in 2019 and has already produced $825,000 FTSAUG yearling Journalism (Curlin) and $1.5m FTSAUG yearling Nitro Tap (Tapit). Ruth is her dam's last reported offspring. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $24,000. Click for the Equibase.com chart or VIDEO, sponsored by FanDuel TV. O/B-Frank T. Batten (KY); T-Todd A. Pletcher.
