Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted September 5, 2020 Journalists Share Posted September 5, 2020 A market firmer at 23-10 and equipped with a set of blinkers for the first time, ‘TDN Rising Star‘ MYSTIC GUIDE (c, 3, Ghostzapper–Music Note, by A.P. Indy) sat much handier to the pace than when last seen in the GIII Peter Pan S. on opening day of the Saratoga meet July 16, weaved his way through traffic to be within striking distance turning for home and kicked on gamely to win Saturday’s repositioned GII Jim Dandy S. at the Spa. A bit hesitant to load, the homebred dropped out to the tail of the field, but trailed dueling pacesetters by just about a half-dozen lengths down the backstretch. Rallying underneath odds-on Dr Post (Quality Road) on the turn, Mystic Guide was asked for his best a quarter mile out, was spun four wide into the lane, overhauled Jesus’ Team (Tapiture) at the eighth pole and staved off a late charge from Liveyourbeastlife (Ghostzapper) to score by a tight length. Dr Post was a lackluster fourth. O/B-Godolphin (KY); T-Mike Stidham.
