Oxbow Filly Lights Up the Tote in the Tempted

Oxy Lady | Chelsea Durand

Let go as one of the roughest chances in the field at 36-1, OXY LADY (f, 2, Oxbow-Renaissance Lady, by A.P. Indy) came with a rally into the final eighth of a mile and pulled away late to record a daylight victory in Friday's GIII Tempted S. through the fog at Aqueduct. The homebred showed decent speed from the gate and ultimately sat a covered-up trip from the box seat into the turn. Right on the heels of the leading trio nearing the lane, she was switched out four wide in upper stretch, was in front just inside the furlong and came away to become the second graded winner for her GI Preakness S.-winning sire (by Awesome Again). A debut second in the slop at Indiana Grand Aug. 15, the bay won her maiden first time long at Belterra Park Sept. 3 and was exiting a close third in a one-mile Keeneland allowance Oct. 10. Oxy Lady was giving former Doug O'Neill assistant Jack Sisterson his first graded winner out on his own. Lifetime Record: 4-2-1-1. O/B-Calumet Farm (KY); T-Jack Sisterson.
