Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted August 11, 2019 Journalists Share Posted August 11, 2019 COLLUSION ILLUSION (c, 2, Twirling Candy–Natalie Grace, by First Dude) seemed to come under a bit of a ride heading for home, but leveled off late and fended off a bid from tough-luck Wrecking Crew (Sky Kingdom) to go two-for-two in Saturday’s GII Best Pal S. at Del Mar. Away well, the $300,000 OBSAPR (:10 flat) acquisition sat second last in the early going with only Wrecking Crew–who totally missed the break–behind him. The bay was scrubbed on by Joe Talamo to take closer order into a :45.28 half, but the whip was out by the top of the lane with favorite Fore Left (Twirling Candy) digging in and Wrecking Crew (Sky Kingdom) winding up down the center. Collusion Illusion continued to plug away, however, and kicked on to prevail by about a length in 1:11.34. Wrecking Crew, the $875,000 Fasig-Tipton Gulfstream buy, did very well to rally into the place spot. Sales history: $50,000 yrl ’18 KEESEP; $300,000 2yo ’19 OBSAPR. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0.
