I think we'll all be thrilled if she shows the improvement she's promised in her training, because then you can spot her where you'd really like her to be

She was purchased in the Fasig-Tipton February Mixed Sale.. You get all kinds in it.. Broodmare prospects that could continue to race for new owners or be taken straight to the shed.. Horses like Sumwon that are early in their career.. Older horses being liquidated by stables leaving the game.. whatever. It's a "mixed" bag. Sumwon was a newly-turned 3 year old at the time, and with the win under her belt could have been bought a broodmare or to continue to race. She fit our the interests of our undertaking well as horse in training with some upside that had residual value as a broodmare prospect potentrially down the road.

How did you come up with Trensa as your play of the day. I would love to know the angle used for this pick. My hat is off to the" Ky. killing machine" for the pick, but I can't see how anyone could like this horse based on the pp's in the drf. Please tell me what you saw.

Default Wow.. it's really happening

I have to drive over 6 hours 1 way but I am tickled to go.
This is great.
I think she will jump up 10 points on the surface switch
10 more on the change in distance and another 10 with Chuck.

She will be competitive. as long as I(the heaviest $2 in racing), don't bet her she could actually WIN

and I'm setting down the pipe now

Can someone tell me what is the proper etiquette on placing a bet for the jockey is?

wow.. going to Keeneland and watching my horse run

John,

Buy a ticket for Jimmie and in the paddock he'll slide it into his boot for luck..
