Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted February 16 Journalists Share Posted February 16 In the lone GI Kentucky Oaks points race on Sunday, Runnin N Gunnin (Gun Runner–Charity Belle, by Empire Maker) deposited the top prize of 20 points into her account as she took home the Sunland Park Oaks. Facing a tough customer in 'TDN Rising Star' Maysam (Game Winner) who was the overwhelming favorite on the tote for trainer Bob Baffert, Runnin and Gunnin had plenty of fight in her as the chalk endured a challenging trip during the first half of the race. The Steve Asmussen trainee rolled from the back of the pack to gain the advantage around the far turn and she was full of run down the lane to secure the score. Her stablemate Enchanting (Gun Runner) helped to complete the exacta. Maysam ended up sixth. The final running time was 1:40.09. The top five finishers received the following: 20-10-6-4-2. Lifetime Record: 6-3-0-0. Sales History: KEESEP '23 $250,000. O-Douglas Scharbauer; B-Dixiana Farms, LLC (KY); T-Steve Asmussen. #2 RUNNIN N GUNNIN ($13.80) circled the field from last to first to easily win the $250,000 Sunland Park Oaks at Sunland Park and earn 20 points towards the Kentucky Oaks.
