Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted February 5, 2022 Journalists Posted February 5, 2022 3rd-Gulfstream, $53,000, Msw, 2-5, 3yo, 6f, 1:10.03, ft, 2 1/4 lengths. NITROUS CHANNEL (c, 3, Nyquist–Laurenmychanelgirl, by Afleet Alex) justified his $625,000 price tag when the Fasig-Tipton Gulfstream sale graduate (:10) produced an impressive performance here at first asking. Breaking sharply with first-time Lasix and immediately taking the early leader to task going up the backstretch, the George Weaver trainee was content to track from second to the outside of the pace. Hitting the turn in a drive, the chestnut fought off a game but leg weary frontrunner to take the lead by midstretch. Powering home, the 5-2 second choice kept Stay Restless (Empire Maker) at bay by 2 1/4 lengths. Palm Island (Uncle Mo), the $1.3 million full-brother to Dream Tree finished fifth after a very late start. The winner has a 2-year-old half-sister by Point of Entry and a yearling half-brother by Good Magic. The dam is expecting a foal by Connect this season.
