We have two running on Wednesday May 4. Killer Bird is back in the 4th and continues to train well for this one. Moves up facing winners.

Gelato Gal is in the 6th for her second start. In her debut at 5/8 on the grass she broke slowly and never had a chance to recover given the short distance. She is training well should appreciate the mile distance and are expecting improvement in a tough MSW race

Thanks again
Paul
CONGRATS!!!

Congrats; and loved the piece about getting them as yearlings and being patient.

Killer Bird is such, such a great name.

That was a real exciting win for Killer on the slop and now back to back wins. Gelato Gal ran a much improved effort in the slop getting 3rd place today. She needs more gate schooling and look for her to get back on the turf going two turns in about a month. Killer came out of her race in good order.

Chuck purchased a Stay Thirsty colt at Ocala 2-year old training sale a couple of weeks ago that we bought into and he is already starting week 2 at Palm Meadows training center.

The 2 Frost Giant 2 -year old homebred colts are training well in Ocala and are about to be shipped to Chuck at Palm Meadows in the next two weeks. They were bred to our Smarty Jones fillies Angry Dragon and Red Baroness.

Finally, Pennypennypenny is doing well at the barn in Palm Meadows before a decision is made whether to send her to Ocala and start a career as a broodmare..

Again thanks for all of the well wishes and we will have a lull the next 3-4 weeks before Oklahoma Den, Killer Bird and Gelato Gal make their next starts

Killer Bird was a nightmare as a baby. She flat out refused to carry a rider on her back for almost a month. She would either buck them off or throw herself on the ground. Needless to say she wasn't very popular with the riders.
She still has a few oddball things that she does but is really pretty close to normal now.
