Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted July 17, 2021 Journalists Share Posted July 17, 2021 In a repeat result from last month's GI Just A Game S. going Belmont's mile turf configuration, Godolphin's ALTHIQA (GB) (f, 4, Dark Angel {Ire}–Mistrusting {Ire}, by Shamaradal) and Summer Romance (Ire) (Kingman {GB}–Serena's Storm {Ire}, by Statue of Liberty) proved too strong for the American counterparts, this time in the nine-furlong GI Diana S. at Saratoga. As she did downstate, Summer Romance cut out the running Saturday afternoon, tracked closest by Vigilantes Way (Medaglia d'Oro) as Althiqa raced with just two rivals behind down the backstretch. Summer Romance continued to hold Vigilantes Way at bay as they raced around the second turn, with Harvey's Lil Goil (American Pharoah) looming a threat three deep and Althiqa following that one's move into the stretch. Produced off heels with a furlong and a half to race, Althiqa needed the best part of those final 330 yards, but was along late to best Summer Romance. La Signare (Fr) (Siyouni {Fr}) rallied for third. Lifetime Record: 11-6-2-3. O/B-Godolphin; T-Charlie Appleby.
