Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted February 15 Journalists Posted February 15 Jill Baffert's Bottle of Rouge (f, 3, Vino Rosso–Blues Corner, by Bluegrass Cat), the 2-5 favorite, survived a steward's inquiry to secure 20 qualifying points to the GI Kentucky Oaks with her victory in the Sunland Park Oaks Sunday evening in New Mexico. Winner of last year's GI Del Mar Debutante, Bouttle of Rouge was making her first start since finishing sixth in the Oct. 31 GI Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies at Del Mar. The gray filly stalked the pace three wide through fractions of :23.85 and :46.80 and moved up to take the lead into the stretch. She drifted out at the eighth pole and looked to brush with Pashmina (Constitution) before being straightened out by Juan Hernandez and pulling away to the wire. Touch of Magic (Into Mischief) was second and Pashmina third. The time for the mile was 1:35.82. Lifetime Record: 5-3-1-0. O-J Natalie Baffert. B-Kathie Maybee. T-Bob Baffert.
