SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y. – Lady Eli, the undefeated Grade 1-winning 3-year-old filly, continues to do well in her battle against laminitis, trainer Chad Brown said Thursday.

Brown has spent the better part of the last two weeks at Belmont Park, where Lady Eli is based and is getting 24-hour care by his staff and weekly visits from a top-notch veterinary team. Brown, back in Saratoga for opening day Friday, said Thursday that doctors are “extremely pleased with her progress, and they’re cautiously optimistic she’s putting this behind her.”

Brown said the veterinary team caring for Lady Eli has established a set of goals for the filly to achieve on a weekly basis, and thus far she has met them.

“I am personally pleased with how she’s moving and her overall condition and attitude,” Brown said.

Brown said Lady Eli will remain at Belmont Park because “that’s where she is most comfortable.”

Very good news. Thanks for posting the update.
