Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted July 31, 2022 Journalists Posted July 31, 2022 NEWGATE (c, 2, Into Mischief–Majestic Presence, by Majestic Warrior) ran to advanced billing and overwhelming 1-2 odds Saturday at Del Mar to become the newest 'TDN Rising Star' to represent the powerful conglomerate nicknamed The Avengers. Purchased during the opening session of last year's Keeneland September sale for $850,000 and presumably named after Australia's Newgate Farm, the handsome bay was ridden along by Hall of Famer John Velazquez and found only stablemate Hard to Figure (Hard Spun) quicker in the early stages. He continued to require some pedaling to keep up through an opening quarter of :21.78, but was clearly getting the better of Hard to Figure as they neared the straight. He put his rival away for good near a :44.90 half, and was ridden out from there to do it convincingly by three or four lengths in 1:03.89. Longshot Arrowthegreat (Arrogate) ran past Hard to Figure for second. Sales history: $850,000 ylg '21 KEESEP.
