How did Chocolate Candy look, as far as future races?

How do the Candy Ride offspring do on the synth, grass and dirt?

Choc Candy won, but it was alot closer than what I though it would have been. I'll take a wait and see as to what he'll do on dirt, as all of his races in CA will be on some type of synthetic... and they all play different. Was hoping for a larger win, especially with Axel Foley nowhere to be found.

Tomorrow's two races should bring in many points if Old Fashioned does not falter(it is a contentious race)

Help me out here, y'all. I have 7 horses in my RTTR stable running in contest races Saturday.

I've got I Want Revenge and Atomic Rain in the Grade I Wood.

I've got three horses in the Grade I S.A. Derby: Pioneer of the Nile, The Pamplemousse and Chocolate Candy

Two horses in the Grade II Illinois Derby: Perfect Song and Free Country

And I've got Capt. Candyman Can in the Grade III Bay Shore


Despite getting less points for a G III win, I figure I have to include likely winner Capt. Candyman

Though I'm concerned about I Want Revenge duplicating his last effort, I have to take him(?). Probably toss Atomic Rain

The Ill. Derby is weak so I feel I should use untested Perfect Song and the disappointing Free Country.

But, I need to toss another besides Atomic Rain, so from the SA Derby I can't keep three horses(?) and will toss Chocolate Candy

Thoughts?
