Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted August 17, 2019 Journalists Share Posted August 17, 2019 Transitioning to the grass off a 14 1/4-length maiden victory against the boys over the Arlington Polytrack July 21, FAIR MAIDEN (f, 2, Street Boss–Shieldmaiden, by Smart Strike) turned Saturday’s Catch A Glimpse S. into a one-horse affair, streaking home by an eyecatching seven lengths. The 3-1 joint-second choice to the previously unbeaten My Dear Girl S. winner Fast Scene (Fast Anna), Fair Maiden was content to sit about three lengths off the free-wheeling 6-5 favorite for the opening 3 1/2 furlongs before cutting into the margin approaching the entry to the long Woodbine straight. Able to sustain her momentum in upper stretch, Fair Maiden tackled Fast Scene with better than a furlong to travel and careered away to stamp herself as one of the ones to beat for next month’s GI Natalma S. Fast Scene faded to fourth. The 36th stakes winner for her sire, Fair Maiden counts 2000 GI Mother Goose S. winner and GI Alabama S. runner-up Secret Status (A.P. Indy) as her third dam. Shieldmaiden changed hands for $30,000 when in foal to Animal Kingdom at Keeneland November in 2017 and most recently delivered a colt by Passion for Action. Lifetime Record: 3-2-1-0. O/B-Godolphin (KY); T-Eoin Harty.
