Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted December 22, 2022 Journalists Posted December 22, 2022 Sponsored by Alex Nichols Agency 8th-FG, $50K, Msw, 2yo, f, 6f, 5:45 p.m. Purchased for $650,000 out of the OBS April Sale after a sharp :9.4 breeze, ROXY'S BALL (Bolt d'Oro) was the most expensive filly and the second-most expensive overall by her freshman sire (by Medaglia d'Oro) from the sale. From a heavily-Australian influenced family, her third dam produced MG1SW Toledo (Aus) (At Talaq). Closer up, her own dam is a multiple stakes winner and multiple graded-stakes placed in her native Australia before being imported in 2018. Conditioned by Keith Desormeaux, Roxy's Ball posted a pair of back-to-back bullet works at Fair Grounds, going five furlongs over a sloppy track from the gate in 1:01 4/5 (1/15) Nov. 26 and again in 1:00 (1/18) Dec. 3. A homebred filly for Clearsky Farms and Three Chimneys Farm, Amisfield (Justify) is a half-sister to a pair of graded stakes winner in MGSW Handsome Mike (Scat Daddy) and GISW Union Strike (Union Rags). She posted a bullet of her own Nov. 25, going five furlongs in 1:01 1/5 (1/10) and checked in just behind Roxy's Ball Dec. 3 with a five-furlong work in 1:00 3/5 (3/18).
