Chuck, I assume Tuesday is shipping day for your two? Does Sumwon go out on the track Wednesday morning to jog around, see the sights, etc?

No she will get to see the track during her race. Once you've raced at Mountaineer in the winter nothing much will bother you

She running 1m right?

Post doesn't really matter that much IMO in these 1 turn mile events.....If anything, you don't want the rail, I have seen alot of horses duck the 2nd turn out of the chute.

here's what I've seen for AP... you don't really want the rail for a mile and if you have your choice going around the turn, you're better off being toward the middle of the track than the rail. It's better to be 2 or 3 or even 4 wide from the days I've been there this year.

Her natural speed will put her where she needs to be, if she could be sitting 3rd and get first run, the race will be over, unless Dreaming of Anna enters. (She worked today which is why I say something like that, joking of course)

To maximize our chances for a win. The $300 is well worth it to have a rider who knows exactly what the horse is capable of.. exactly what the horse's indiosyncracies are.. exactly what to expect when asking the horse to go, to rate, to back off, etc..
