Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted April 7, 2019 Journalists Share Posted April 7, 2019 THE MACKEM BULLET (Ire) (Society Rock {Ire}–Elkmait {GB}, by Trade Fair {GB}) stalked the pace and had plenty left in the stretch to capture the GII Appalachian S. on a rainy Sunday at Keeneland. Away in good order, the bay secured an ideal spot tracking the pace from second through a half-mile in :49.21. Cued up to seize control coming off the final turn, she kicked clear in upper stretch and maintained a comfortable margin to the wire as Regal Glory (Animal Kingdom) closed belatedly to complete the exacta. The final time for a mile over off going was 1:39.31. The Mackem Bullet campaigned in Great Britain last year for trainer Brian Ellison and came to the States to run sixth in the GI Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf in the autumn. Subsequently transferred to the care of Wesley Ward, she wintered in Kentucky and won once from two starts over the synthetic track at Turfway Park. Lifetime Record: GSW, 10-3-2-2, $305,358. Sales History: $11,633 yrl GOUKSI ’17. O-Katsumi Yoshida. B-Tally-Ho Stud (Ire). T-Wesley Ward. View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
