SWLY and KnS sighting

Benny Leger · #1 11-23-2007, 10:29 PM

Got a good look at our gals this morning before the card at CD. Both look great. SWLY was as fiesty and frisky as ever after her gallop. Cherie let me give her a few of her favorite treats after she returned to her stall. I tried to give KnS one but she doesn't like them. She still seems a little shy and nervous but I'm sure Cheries TLC will have her as playful as Sumwon in no time. Sumwon looks like a battle tank(strong and sturdy) while KnS is more streamlined, sleek and shiney. She looks fast standing still. Cherie, TC and Team Dee Tee are on top of everything and continue to do a great job. Here's my recap of the days events: Gas money from Cincy to the "Ville" =$45...Breakfast and a Racing Form on the backside = $12....Chattin" with Cherie and TC at the barn = priceless....Trying to cap the CD card afterwards = painful

I concur!! I was hovering around the winners when I went through the card but wasn't getting much money down on them which was extremely aggravating given the prices that were going up ONE AFTER THE NEXT!!!

Painful moment when Russian Gypsy took one for the game. I hate it when one of these beautiful animals is euthanized on the track.

I also stopped in to see SWLY (and KnS) Fri morning around 7AM. I feel out of my element on the backside so I just try to stay out of the way. TC was very inviting and so was Cherie. TC gave me an overview of the clocker tower, for which the best use at this time of year is the heater, if you ask me! Good grief it was cold. Those guys earn their $$$ on cold mornings like that. Most-used phrase of the barn staff was "Muy Frio." I heard that one a few times.

Absolutely the worst fatal breakdown I've ever witnessed. Happend directly in front of the section my seats were in. This horrible incident ruined an otherwise perfect day.
