Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted July 28, 2020 Journalists Share Posted July 28, 2020 Spendthrift Farm’s Cinco Charlie (Indian Charlie) was represented by his first winner Tuesday when Patricia and Daniel Yates’ Big On Big scored a hard-fought victory in his career debut. Showing a mostly pedestrian local worktab until perking up with a five-furlong bullet in 1:02 4/5 (1/7) July 18, the dark bay took a late punch to be 28-5 at the off and led narrowly as the middle marker in a three-way pace duel through a sharp :22.40 quarter. Starting to find a bit of daylight past a :47.26 half, he repelled the challenge of Armada (Paynter) and kicked away past the eighth pole before holding sway from late-running longshot Brig (Midshipman) for a 1 1/2-length success. The winner has a yearling half-brother by Jimmy Creed named The Real Guy. Cinco Charlie, a $190,000 OBS March purchase in 2014, captured the GIII Bashford Manor S. as a juvenile, added a pair of stakes wins and a runner-up finish in the GII Woody Stephens S. at three and annexed the Duncan F. Kenner S. at four. He stands for $5,000 at Spendthrift.
