With regard to the Pleasantly Perfects, I know they are bred to run long. I'm not concerned with their workout times. I'm concerned with the way they move. I've only seen a limited sample, but the PPs I've seen have not had a nice way of moving at all.
And you know that horses don't really grow out of their way of moving. Can't wait to check out the previews. Thanks for the update, and good luck

Oh yeah, and congrats with WA and RBD today You were right about WA. We always knew the other one had a lot of potential. Glad to see Ron finally got him straight. He looks fantastic!

I got to see about 2/3rds of last week's breezes, and one that looked nice to me was Hip 138, a Proud Citizen filly out of an American Chance mare. Richie mentioned Lion Heart and Speightstown, and there were colts by both that prospective buyers were talking about.. Hip 114 is Lion Heart via Deputy Minister mare VVS Flawless, and Hip 228 is the Speightstown from a Meadowlake mare.

And good luck today to Kenny Lejeune, who is training Aldebutante at Ocala. He has Hip 12, a Macho Uno filly named In the Evening, and Hip 95, an Officer filly, in the sale.

Well, being that Hip #228 and Hip #114 were the horses that I was talking about without giving them away earlier to the board in this thread because Rupert Pupkin would have known which two I was talking about...well...

The BEST in Ocala, bar none as far as I'm concerned. Kenny is an awsome guy and an amazing developer of talent. If I didn't have so many irons in the fire already I would have loved to jump in on her - Best of everything to Dee Tee - Mr. Simon certainly know what he's doing!!
