The fact that there was no training for 2 days was the biggest issue. The night of the concert was not a real big deal. Thunder over Louisville is worse.

The best news I heard all day, well...second best

A bullet work (1/25) of 5f in 1:00 2/5 under no urging from
chilli Willy. The week off may have made our girl hungry to return to the track. Let's hope she is refreshed and ready to roll !!!

Nice big rain across the midwest - good chance for everyone cool off next couple days, including Sumwon! Dumb question, where would she have been stabled this time last year - would have even been in training??

It is absolutely amazing the transformation that a little TLC and someone that has a clue can do with a horse. Horse have to have heart and she obviously has that but still. She was running 10k claimers at Da Mountain, to a 50k claimer at Churchill, and is a future stakes winner, and hell, PROBABLY a G3 winner if you can catch one of those spots.

And she's mentally a "happier" horse, more relaxed, with a healthier life. The horses deserve that.

Under Chuck's care I believe this filly is just starting to come into her own. If he would have had Sumwon from the start she would most likely have run through her conditions by now. Black type in her future imo.

I wonder how many people took a look at their Form and wondered what the heck was going on. You always hear some bitter person at the track cursing horses like Sumwon who move up with a new trainer when this was obviously very legitimate.
