Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted May 3, 2019 Journalists Share Posted May 3, 2019 CONCRETE ROSE (f, 3, Twirling Candy–Solerina, by Powerscourt {GB}) flew by 1-5 favorite and previously undefeated Newspaperofrecord (Ire) (Lope de Vega {Ire}) in the lane to spring the upset in the GIII Edgewood S. at Churchill Downs Friday. The 5-1 shot saved ground in fourth early as a keen Newspaperofrecord dictated terms through early splits of :23.53 and :47.87. Advancing into second turning for home, the dark bay showed a furious turn of foot in the stretch to charge past the chalk and win by a widening four lengths in 1:43.34. Newspaperofrecord was second and Winter Sunset (Tapit) was third. A debut winner sprinting at Saratoga Aug. 20, Concrete Rose followed suit with a win in the GII Jessamine S. at Keeneland Oct. 10 and was eighth to Newspaperofrecord in the GI Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf over a yielding course at Churchill Nov. 2. She entered this test off a win in the GIII Florida Oaks at Tampa Mar. 9. Lifetime Record: 5-4-0-0. O-Ashbrook Farm & BBN Racing; B-Ron Patterson (KY); T-George Arnold.
