Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted January 22, 2021 Journalists Share Posted January 22, 2021 CADDO RIVER (c, 3, Hard Spun-Pangburn, by Congrats) made good on his 'TDN Rising Star'-worthy graduation with a facile first stakes score in Oaklawn's Smarty Jones S. Away well from the outside post, the 3-5 chalk seized the early advantage and clocked an unpressured opening quarter in :23.12 and a half in :47.16. Extending clear with ease on the backstretch run, the bay rolled home the easiest of winners under a hand ride from Florent Geroux. Caddo River was second in his first two attempts, debuting at Saratoga Sept. 5 and running next at Belmont Oct. 11. He took the field from gate to wire next out at going a mile at Churchill Nov. 15, romping by 9 1/2 lengths. Lifetime Record: 4-2-2-0. O/B-Shortleaf Stable Inc. (KY); B-Brad Cox.
