Tough decision - would love to come down for the race. Crescent Moon Dr is running in the 1st race of the day too, one of my favorites in Gary's barn. Frigid temps may keep me home....Hoping for a heat wave!

Just off the phone with Gary who was pleased overall with what can only be called an encouraging effort from the filly. Chucky liked her a lot and said she felt great. She bobbled at the break, but he gathered her and got her out quickly. She was starting to tire a bit at the top of the stretch and the bump kind of took a little more out of her, but she finished with interest. The winner was not losing today obviously, but being beaten 3 lengths by the other trio likely earns Ausable towards a high 50's Beyer, back in the right direction.
Clearly, getting her out of the blinkers was a key, and Gary has been changing up her training and some other things as well. He's having her jog more and gallop less, as one thing he wants to see from her is some weight gain. There was also some tweaking done by the farrier. We'll get other starts in over the winter, but turf sprinting is likely the right target for Ausable come spring. More tomorrow to see how she came out overnight. In the meantime, Lloydobler came out of his race Thursday in excellent shape, and may consider a 6f MSW at Philly February 6.

Encouraging Effort...
she showed signs again today that there is potential...needs right group, conditions, and pace scenerio....analyzing her races bears this out...first race didn't like the mud in her face....second out wired field in a green effort...third out on pace between horses in stake and tired...throw out fourth and fifth races with blinkers and tough fields...today much improved on the engine after bobble and then bumped while starting to tire but still finished ok (throw out the winner and she was close enough to the others after doing the dirty work on front end)...Steve summed it up beautifully in his post as to the tinkering in the training etc...the thing we need now is patience as Gary tinkers and Ausable matures.....The trees that are slow to grow bear the best fruit -Moliere
