Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted August 21, 2020 Journalists Share Posted August 21, 2020 GOLDEN PAL (c, 2, Uncle Mo–Lady Shipman, by Midshipman), still diploma-less despite two runner-up finishes and plenty of hype, put it all together Friday in Saratoga’s Skidmore S. A close second at 1-2 odds on the Gulfstream main track Apr. 17, the son of turf sprinting phenom Lady Shipman was just tagged late after showing the way in Royal Ascot’s G2 Norfolk S. June 19. He and stablemate Fauci (Malibu Moon) appeared to have this compact field at their mercy, and the public got it right in installing Golden Pal as the 2-5 chalk. Blasting out of his outside stall to immediately clear off, the Randall Lowe homebred doled out splits of :21.99 and :44.37 with Fauci in closest pursuit. The race already appeared won as they straightened for home, and Irad Ortiz, Jr. just gave Golden Pal a couple of shoulder taps as he cruised home some five lengths to the good of Fauci while stopping the timer in a sharp 1:00.88. Golden Pal is the first foal to race out of brilliant 13-time winner Lady Shipman (Midshipman), who missed by a neck in the 2015 GI Breeders’ Cup Turf Sprint. Lady Shipman has not produced a live foal since Golden Pal and was bred back to Omaha Beach for 2021. For more on Golden Pal and owner/breeder Randy Lowe, see Second Chances.
