Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted August 7, 2022 Journalists Posted August 7, 2022 In a race that came down to a pair of blue sheepskin nosebands, FAST AND SHINY (f, 2, Bernardini–Spotted Heart, by Lion Hearted) got the better of a final-furlong tussle with the better-fancied and commonly owned Doinitthehardway (Street Sense) under a cerebral ride from Florent Geroux. They lined up three across the track early on, Fast and Shiny, Doinitthehardway and favored Getthemoney (Midnight Lute) from the rail out, but Geroux elected to take a tug of Fast and Shiny and allow the other two to set the table for him. Despite losing a fraction of momentum when easing back off the speed, Fast and Shiny was steered out full of run outside of a weakening Getthemoney, joined her stablemate a furlong for home and did the better work through the final sixteenth of a mile.
