Medaglia d’Oro Filly Off the Mark at First Asking in NOLA

[Wandering Eyes]

Let go at debut odds of 21-5, better than twice her morning line of 2-1, Spendthrift Farm homebred SOCIAL DILEMMA (f, 2, Medaglia d’Oro–Singing Kitty, by Ministers Wild Cat) worked out a good trip beneath Colby Hernandez to graduate at first asking going an extended mile Friday afternoon at the Fair Grounds. Three wide around the first turn, the $575,000 Fasig-Tipton Saratoga buyback stalked the pace outside and poked her nose in front with about a half-mile to travel. Going well on the second turn, she cut the corner into the stretch and came away to take it by the better part of five lengths. Stillchargingmaria (Pioneerof the Nile-Stopchargingmaria), a $1.9-million weanling purchase at FTKNOV in 2018, chased three deep approaching the stretch and kept on well to be second at overlaid odds. Spendthrift Farm acquired the three-time stakes winner and GSP Singing Kitty with this filly in utero for $750,000 at Keeneland November in 2017. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0.
