+AUNTIE JOY (f, 2, Uncle Mo–Rejoicing, by Forestry), a half-sister to Divine Oath (Broken Vow), MGSW, $507,210, fired a best-of-12 bullet in :48 4/5 at Churchill Downs Trackside Oct. 23. A little chilly on the board at 8-1 here, she was settled in sixth while saving ground through fractions of :24.06 and :49. With Brian Hernandez Jr. in the irons, she began to make her move entering the far turn, was guided four wide at the top of the stretch and responded nicely to some left-handed encouragement down the lane to score by 2 1/4 lengths. Downside Scenario (Scat Daddy), favored at 6-5, completed the exacta. Auntie Joy becomes the 22nd winner for her freshman sire (by Indian Charlie). The winner's dam Rejoicing (Forestry), a $150,000 KEENOV purchase while in foal to Broken Vow in 2010, had a filly by that stallion in 2015 and was bred back to Pioneerof the Nile this spring. Auntie Joy's third dam is the great Personal Ensign. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $33,000. Click for the Equibase.com chart or VIDEO, sponsored by Fasig-Tipton.
