Ravel
 
Anyone have any scoop on him? Supposedly the connections were going to give him a 100 days off after the Sham to recover from something (exactly what was wrong with him escapes me)....Is he coming back or is he destined to become another First Samurai in Clairborne's shed?

he had a 'possible fracture' in his left front cannon bone...out minimum of sixty days, but that was about 150 days ago.

I believe he worked at Arlington the other day.

I believe he's been working there for a bit now, even. It was in the paper a little while back.

Thanks, I didn't feel like digging through my stable mail.

Liquidity sure hasn't done anything after the Sham to flatter Ravel.
I liked Ravel after his win in the Sham, but I think he was a colt that generated more excitement because of his pedigree than because of his actual performances on the track. Still though, I would like to see him make it back.

I had Ravel in my stable mail before his Sham win, and this 3F posted workout is the first I've received since he was put on the shelf. It's seems strange that he worked at Arlington, since he was west coast based on the triple crown trail. Is he still being trained by Todd Pletcher?

Yes he keeps horses there and Tabor/Smith said they liked their horses on Poly which is why they had him in the west anyway.

Does he have 4 legs?
If so the answer is probably yes.

Yes but he broke his madien in a race on the undercard of the hollywood fut and his race was faster and he did it in style.

Miraja2,

Good point about Pletcher.
