Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted August 1, 2021 Journalists Share Posted August 1, 2021 Ramroma Stable's MUNNYFOR RO (f, 3, Munnings–Repartee, by Distorted Humor) completed a quick-fire stakes double for her outstanding sire, overcoming a tough trip from a double digit gate to take out Sunday's C$500,000 Woodbine Oaks in Toronto. Settled behind midfield through the opening furlongs, the $65,000 Keeneland September yearling purchase traveled four and five wide down the backstretch and began working into it entering the final half-mile. Four deep for the run around the second turn, she sustained a long run despite the ground loss, hit the front in upper stretch and stayed on nicely to defeat Emmeline (Violence). Il Malocchio was third. A latest runner-up in the GIII Selene S., Munnyfor Ro could take on the boys in the Aug. 22 Queen's Plate over a mile and a quarter, according to winning trainer Kevin Attard, but would need to be supplemented to that first leg of the Canadian Triple Crown. A handful of minutes prior to the Woodbine Oaks, Munnings's daughter Miss Alacrity won an off-turf renewal of the Colleen S. at Monmouth Park. Those two new stakes wins takes the Coolmore stallion to 49 black-type winners. Sales history: $65,000 Ylg '19 KEESEP. O-Ramroma Stable; B-Daybar Ltd (ON); T-Kevin Attard.
