I heard he galloped out 3 furlongs in :34. By the way, the track this week is more than a 1/5th of a second slower (for a 1/8th of a mile work) than what we usually see at these sales. Last year when this sale was at Adena Springs, there were 3 horses that worked :9 4/5 and about 30 horses that worked :10. This year not a single horse worked :9 4/5. Only one horse worked :10. There were only 12 horses that worked :10 1/5. So it was easier to wok :10 last year than it was to work :10 1/5 this year.
If there wasn't a deluge of rain on Saturday we might have seen no one break 11. Track has been oddly deep at GP though after the rain storm it has tightened back up
