Good Luck today with Catching Fireflies at Laurel...I am going to try and use her in a couple of plays. Safe trips for rider and horse.

Thanks, Casp!

Big field. Definitely worth using some longshots. Anything can happen in these turf sprints. Assuming a decent break, CFF figures to be up close to the pace. Would love to see her finish like she did in the Windley Key Stakes at GP. If she duplicates that effort, she could be in the mix. Arnaud says she's working very well up at Fair Hill.

Good luck today. Hope you cash some tickets!

Cheers,

Otis

Thanks, Casp!

Feargal did a fantastic job on the turn to snap her head to the left and let her know it was business time. That's a long stretch at Laurel and she sustained a very fast pace to the wire. Kudos to Arnaud for getting her back in form. He is great with turf sprinters.

Cheers,

O

Thanks, knicks and Steve!

Sentimental victory, as she is the first horse I bought into. Great to see her in the winner's circle after 20 months.

Cheers!

Otis
