Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted April 30 Journalists Share Posted April 30 Just in time for the big weekend, a brand new half-sister to Derby favorite Journalism (Curlin) has hit the ground for Don Alberto Corporation in Kentucky, according to a post on X by Reed Ringler. By Flightline and out of GSW Mopotism (Uncle Mo), the filly who arrived at about 1:00 a.m. ET came in at 144 pounds. “Mopotism has thrown some terrific foals, and all have had plenty of leg and substance,” Don Alberto's Reed Ringler told the TDN. “She is a great mother, but all the foals have been independent and smart. She jumped right up and said 'here I am!' Our broodmare manager Raul Garcia is the best and he said she was an easy delivery. My guess is the filly runs in the colors of Don Alberto.” Acquired by the organization for $1.05-million at the 2019 Fasig-Tipton Fall Mixed Sale, her dam now claims four foals, with the highly-regarded Journalism being the first. Also of note, Mopotism's colt Nitro Tap (Tapit) was a $1.5-million buy for Flying Dutchmen during Fasig-Tipton's Saratoga Sale last year and this dam foaled a filly by Into Mischief, who currently is a yearling. @theTDN @FanDuel_Racing @BloodHorse late breaking news..Journalism has a sister, 144 pound filly by Flightline pic.twitter.com/ojdYRfmYSj — Reed Ringler (@ReedRingler) April 30, 2025 The post Journalism’s Half-Sister By Flightline Arrives In Time For Big Brother’s Derby Run appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
