Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted March 8 Journalists Share Posted March 8 Shortleaf Stable's 'TDN Rising Star' Quietside (Malibu Moon) returned to the Oaklawn Park worktab for the first time since taking the Feb. 23 GIII Honeybee Stakes, going a half-mile in :48 flat in the company of her stakes-placed stablemate Spankerboom (Mendelssohn). “Just a maintenance work,” Ortiz said of Quietside, who covered her final quarter in :23.40 and galloped out five furlongs in 1:00.20 according to track clockers. “Spankerboom always works with her. It was a good work for both. After the wire, I let her gallop out a little bit. Galloped out a minute and change. It was extremely smooth. I've worked her before, but it's been a long time. After this, she feels like two different animals. She's an athlete. She came out of that race breathing a different type of air.” Connections have Quietside pointed for a start in the Mar. 29 GII Fantasy Stakes, the final Oaklawn lead-up to the GI Kentucky Oaks on May 2.
