Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted April 6, 2019 Journalists Share Posted April 6, 2019 As is the norm for Chad Brown in top-rung Keeneland turf events, the trainer offers a pair of representatives in the GII Appalachian S. at Keeneland Sunday. The more experienced of the two is Regal Glory (Animal Kingdom), who won her first two trips to post, including Aqueduct’s Stewart Manor S. Nov. 11. Well supported last time in Gulfstream’s GIII Sweetest Chant S. Feb. 3, the Paul Pompa Jr. runner proved second best to the classy A Bit Special (GB) (Mukhadram {GB}), beaten 2 1/2 lengths. Hoping to duplicate her latest effort but jumping up in class, fellow-Brown trainee Clause (Speightstown) enters this following a come-from-behind victory over the Gulfstream turf Feb. 9. Aboard for her debut score, Irad Ortiz, Jr. is back in the boot for her stakes bow. The Mark Casse-trainee Catch a Thrill (City Zip) was good enough to take her career bow sprinting five furlongs over the Gulfstream turf Jan. 13 before finishing second behind the progressive Play On (Country Day) in the Melody of Colors S. over that course and trip Feb. 23. Norm Casse, former assistant to his father Mark, is also represented by Hard Legacy (Hard Spun). The winner of her first two starts for owner Marylou Whitney-including the most recent in an 8 1/2-furlong test at Gulfstream Dec. 23, the bay tries to rebound off a fifth in the Sweetest Chant. Julien Leparoux gets the call. View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
