Saw Cableknit just scratched at the gate (1/2 sis to Speightstown) 1.7 million $$ yearling.

I believe she flipped.. hope she is alright and runs back soon.

This is true, but the main thing is I don't see any of her horses making large jumps in form which I think is the bigger question surrounding certain trainers.

she was just under 20% at the recent belmont meet , she had a total of 11 winners the entire spring meet at belmont - 3 + month meet , now she has 9 winners in less the 3 weeks up here at the spa .....come on if this was pletcher or dutrow or c brown almost matching their win total in less than 3 weeks vs an entire meet at belmont this place would be full of chatter....

Look at her winners:

Ahvee's Destiny - Got loose in a turf sprint and was a stakes winner over the Mellon turf before. (7/2)

Awakino Cat - Exited two decent turf sprints at Monmouth and benefited from a perfect trip. (9-1)

Gentle Ride - Got loose in a very weak maiden claimer dropping from MSW races. (2-1)

Good Prospect - Received a perfect trip coming off a win against comparable company. (7-1)

Fort McCoy - Exited a rough trip 5th at Belmont and had things go his way. (7-1)

Tahoe Warrior - Coming back on short rest off a poor effort sprinting he also got a perfect trip going long and benefited when the favorite received an uncharacteristically bad ride from Ramon Dominguez. (10-1)

Karakorum Legend - Capitalized on a lone E trip against a suspect field as the chalk. (5/2)

Willsboro Point - Received a cushy pace-setting trip against a bad field (5/2).

Mother Russia - Another wire-to-wire winner against a horrible field (2-1).

The common thread among these winners is that they were all relatively short prices and most benefited from great trips pace-wise. I really think she's getting the most out of her horses right now and things will definitely even out soon.

She had 11 winners at Saratoga in 2007 including a 6-10 run during closing week, so it's not like this is unprecedented.

so she wins 11 races in a 3 month meet and now has 9 winners in less than 3 weeks ....am i to believe if pletcher or dutrow did this miraculous feat and almost matched their spring belmont meet winners in less than 3 weeks that there wouldn't be an artice in the drf about what is going on here .... you can talk about all the perfect trips you want , i am to beleive that that her horses faced stronger fields and had bad trips at belmont and are now facing weaker fields and getting good trips in every race???
