Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted September 3, 2018 Journalists Posted September 3, 2018 MIND CONTROL (c, 2, Stay Thirsty–Feel That Fire, by Lightnin N Thunder), privately purchased out of a maiden win a little over three weeks ago, shook off some early pace pressure and dug in late to hold off heavily-favored ‘TDN Rising Star’ Mucho (Blame) in the GI Hopeful S. at Saratoga. Second on debut behind returning GII Saratoga Special S. hero Call Paul (Friesan Fire) July 5 at Delaware, the Red Oak Stable homebred convincingly broke his maiden next out Aug. 12 at Monmouth, after which Sol Kumin’s Madaket Stables bought in. Given a 10-1 chance in this closing day feature, the bay broke well and dueled early on with ‘Rising Star’ Nitrous (Tapit) through splits of :22.96 and :45.68. Cutting the corner into the lane, he appeared likely to be overhauled by the imposing Mucho in the three path, but kept on finding to deny that one by just under a length in 1:22.99. Lifetime Record: 3-2-1-0, $238,400. O-Red Oak Stable & Madaket Stables LLC; B-Red Oak Stable (KY); T-Gregory D. Sacco. View the full article Quote
