Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted August 2 Journalists Posted August 2 Second-time starter DELIGHTFUL CLAIRE (f, 3, Thousand Words–Izshelegal, by Maria's Mon), third in her Churchill Downs debut last month, returned in emphatic fashion Saturday to become the first 'TDN Rising Star' for her young sire. Positioned near the lead in this one-turn seven-furlong affair, the 3-1 favorite had to pull back pacesetter Lost and Found (Liam's Map) but turned for home alone on the lead and turned the stretch run into a parade route to come home an easy, geared-down winner. $2.3m yearling grad Metfardeh (Into Mischief) outran her 7-1 odds to lead the rest of the field in. Lifetime Record: 2-1-0-1. O-Rigney Racing LLC; B-Gmbracstables LLC, Mr. & Mrs. Ramon Rangel & Mr. & Mrs. Zachary Mad; T-Philip A. Bauer. Sales History: $65,000 wlg '22 FTKNOV, $250,000 ylg' 23 FTKJUL.
