I know it's part of the game, but I'm still sad

where will sumwon be spending the stall rest portion of her convalescence? sorry to hear that she has suffered an injury, but thankfully it is one that only requires time and patience!

best of luck to kickin, hope she gets in the race, and comes back well.

Very disheartening situation regarding SWLY, but atleast we know she won't be rushed back and all precautions will be taken by Chuck and Crew. This just shows us all about the ups and downs of the game. Although I don't own any part of KNS and the other 2 fillies, it will still be exciting to see KNS race and the other progress in training towards their first starts late next year. Best of luck to everyone.

Happy Holidays to all. Chuck and Steve - Thanks so much.

Brian

One of the best parts of this partnership is that there is never a question that the horse comes first. There are plenty of outfits who would have run her for a tag and cut their losses. I am proud to be a part of the DT stable.

Default Unfortunate but part of the game

To put things in perspective: The first filly i bought two years ago never made it to the races. The second filly i bought raced four times and then was retired as a 3YO. The third horse is a colt who is fine but won't get his first start until next April when he is a three year old.


I appreciate just getting a horse to the races.. I am sorry for the setback with Sumwon but early detection will help and hopefully she will be back and running again in the middle of next year....

"torn muscle"

Could've been a lot worse. You can't succeed in this game without a ton of patience. We are all lucky that Chuck and Steve will absolutely do what is right by the horse.

Gotta love the optimism here. DeeTee does the right thing by SWLY ... brought her along slow, plenty of rest between starts, and a well deserved break. And the big gal gets hurt before her first real workout. Very frustrating.
This is definitely a game that requires a lot of patience and good fortune.

Best of luck to KNS.
