Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted July 19 Journalists Posted July 19 Scottish Lassie (f, 3, McKinzie–Bodebabe, by Bodemeister), winless in three attempts since breaking her maiden in style in last fall's GI Frizette S., got back on track in a big way with a runaway decision in Saturday's GI Coaching Club American Oaks Invitational at Saratoga. The 2-1 shot took over from champion Immersive (Nyquist) on the clubhouse turn and made her way to the rail in the scratched-down field of four. Scottish Lassie showed the way through fractions of :23.81 and :48.09, began to get away on the far turn and opened daylight form there to win by double digits. Immersive finished second. Pedigree Notes: Scottish Lassie is one of two Grade I winners for sophomore sire McKinzie. Scottish Lassie's dam Bodebabe was an $8,000 purchase by Ascot Health Farm at the Fasig-Tipton Winter Mixed Sale in 2018. She is also responsible for the unraced 2-year-old filly Scot's Law (Tiz the Law), a $50,000 KEESEP yearling; and a yearling colt by Corniche. Sales history: $50,000 yrl '23 KEESEP; $85,000 2yo '24 OBSMAR. Lifetime Record: 6-2-0-3.
