MAYBE EYE'LL CALL (c, 2, Improbable–You Caught My Eye, by Can the Man) became the first winner for his sadly departed stallion (by City Zip) with an easy second-out success. Facing considerably easier competition after finishing 10th in his June 20 unveiling at Churchill Downs, the 7-10 chalk was able to avoid a messy start caused by the veering-in Govenor Hank (Govenor Charlie), was nursed along on the front end and proved four lengths best on the wire. You Caught My Eye, a half-sister to City Zip's Canadian Horse of the Year and multiple Grade I winner Catch a Glimpse and to the productive Ontario-based stallion Old Forester (Forestry), was purchased by Nate McCauley's River Oak Farm for $65,000 in foal to Violence at Keeneland November in 2019 and was resold to this breeder for $230,000 pregnant to American Pharoah the following fall. The mare also has a yearling colt by Maxfield and a filly foal by American Pharoah. Sales history: $95,000 RNA Ylg '23 KEESEP; $75,000 2yo '24 OBSAPR. Lifetime Record: 2-1-0-0, $20,325.

(MA) Meet Winks, an adorable and incredibly strong puppy with a heartbreaking origin. Winks was found unmoving on the side of a road with severe injuries. He had several very infected wounds and was barely holding on when his rescuers rushed him to the vet. Once there, x-rays revealed the horrifying truth that Winks had been shot numerous times around his face and neck. These injuries resulted in him having his eye removed. Despite that, Winks has made a miraculous and full recovery. He certainly does not let his handicap slow him down at his new foster home.

If you want to know what endures, you need to know what has changed. To know what really counts, then, you must talk with the guys who have been around longest. “I remember when the first ultrasound scanner came to town,” Padraig Campion says. “A guy called Dr. Norman Rantanen brought the machine in, to show us, and the first mare he scanned was Gold Digger. And sure enough, there's twins there. We didn't know. Down the road we realised it was pretty normal, that a lot of them just go away. But the old guys in the barn, every time it showed twins, they would say, 'Goddam, it's that machine causes them.'”
