Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted June 5, 2020 Journalists Share Posted June 5, 2020 A competitive field of eight sophomore fillies are set to line up Saturday for the GIII Dogwood S. at Churchill Downs. Four Graces (Majesticperfection) looks to follow in the hoofprints of her MGSW half-brother McCraken (Ghostzapper) and secure her first black-type victory here. A debut winner at Gulfstream Mar. 1, the Whitham Thoroughbreds homebred was fourth in a Hallandale optional claimer Apr. 10 and returned to winning ways in another optional claimer over this track and trip May 16. ‘TDN Rising Star’ Ain’t No Elmers (Goldencents) looks to return to winning ways in this black-type bow. A dominant first-out winner at the Fair Grounds Feb. 15, the bay romped by nine lengths next out in NOLA Mar. 18 and was fifth when trying two turns at Oaklawn May 2. Fellow ‘TDN Rising Star’ Magic Dance (More Than Ready) also looks to get back on track here. The half-sister to MGISW Guarana (Ghostzapper) opened her account with an impressive win going five panels here last June and took the track-and-trip Debutante S. three weeks later. Third in Saratoga’s GII Adirondack S. in August, the dark bay was benched for the season and finished fifth when next seen in a two-turn allowance in the slop at Oaklawn Mar. 28. John Sadler saddles another promising runner in Edgeway (Competitive Edge). Capturing her career bow in Hot Springs Feb. 29, the dark bay was third to Kimari (Munnings) in a sloppy renewal of that venue’s Purple Martin S. Apr. 4 and won an optional claimer there Apr. 26.
