Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted December 19, 2025 Journalists Posted December 19, 2025 7th-GP, $70k, Msw, 2yo, 1 1/16mT, 3:18 p.m. ET Epic d'Oro (Medaglia d'Oro), a full-brother to the once-in-a-lifetime Rachel Alexandra, makes his first career start for Todd Pletcher going two turns over the Gulfstream lawn. He brought $1.35 million from the fledgling Las Vegas-based Epic Horses at last year's Keeneland September Yearling sale. The bay was bred in Kentucky by Dede McGehee. “He is a really good mover,” the operation's advisor and CEO of Town & Country Farms Shannon Potter said at KEESEP while declining to reveal the names of the new owners. “He has a good walk and has a lot of hip and a big shoulder. We loved the way he looked.” Epic d'Oro, drawn widest of all in post 12, is listed at 6-1 on the morning line. Irad Ortiz, Jr. has the mount. TJCIS PPs 3rd-FG, $55k, Msw, 2yo, 6f, 2:45 p.m. ET Coronado (Nyquist), a $95,000 KEEJAN short yearling turned $550,000 KEESEP yearling, looks well-meant for his debut for Wathnan Racing and trainer Brad Cox. He was produced by the stakes-placed Quality Road mare Slimey. Luis Saez has the mount on the 3-1 morning-line favorite. The field of 10 also includes Phipps Stable and St. Elias Stable homebred Golden Tempo (Curlin), a son of GSW & GISP Carrumba (Bernardini). He debuts for Cherie DeVaux.
