Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted March 14, 2020 Journalists Share Posted March 14, 2020 ‘TDN Rising Star’ NADAL (c, 3, Blame–Ascending Angel, by Pulpit) kept his perfect record in tact with a gritty score in the GII Rebel S. at Oaklawn Saturday. A debut winner at Santa Anita Jan. 19, the $700,000 FTFMAR buy followed suit with a win in the seven-panel GII San Vicente S. Feb. 9 and was heavily favored in this first try around two turns. Seizing the early advantage, the bay ticked off opening splits of :22.89 and :46 flat under Joel Rosario. Showing the way into the lane, Nadal was confronted by longshot Excession (Union Rags) to his outside, but kept on finding to outlast that foe at the wire in 1:44.97. Lifetime Record: 3-3-0-0. O-George Bolton, Arthur Hoyeau, Barry Lipman and Mark Mathiesen; B-Sierra Farm (KY); T-Bob Baffert.
