General News

With NJ racing finished for 2022, our horses are on the move to their winter quarters, which is detailed in this update.  Some important news about our NYRA claiming group is detailed below by our Racing Manager Scott Schaub.

"In an effort to open up our NYRA claiming group to a few more individuals we will be offering all claimed horses on an individual basis with those who participate getting priority for participating in any future NY claims but with no obligation to participate in any additional claims.  The team is already closely monitoring entries for our first claim at Aqueduct, and your 5% share in the first single horse group can now be reserved for just $4,500 which includes six months of training and management expenses. Any prorated training expenses are returned if we own the horse for less than six months. This amount allows for up to a $40,000 claim with any unused purchase funds returned if the claiming price is less. Simply reserve your spot now for our first NY runner, and its your choice to proceed with future runners, or not. We hope you'll join us for this exciting opportunity to run for lucrative purses at Aqueduct all Winter long, but space is limited with the group nearly sold out."

To reserve a spot or for any further information on the program, please contact Scott (Scott@Kenwoodracing.com) or George (George@kenwoodracing.com)

Horse by Horse News

  • Easy as A.B.C. is well at Palm Meadows Training Facility in Florida after a smooth trip south from Monmouth Park last Sunday.  He was on the track Wednesday for a very light jog and Kelly will continue to increase his workouts over the next week. If all continues to go well, we will be looking for a race in a couple of weeks at Gulfstream Park.   
  • Torn Jeans is well after her last race and shipped to Mark Salvaggio at Penn National on Tuesday for the Fall - Winter meet.  She will get some class relief there and we look for her to move forward under Mark’s expert care.  Looking for a good spot for her in the next few weeks.
  • Both Ellie's a Riot and Without a Net are doing fine at Overbrook Farm, as they continue to mature and develop physicallyScott was out to see them on Thursday morning and you can see his report below.

Without a Net and Ellie's a Riot are both doing great at Overbrook Farm with their time away from the track, and Kelly Breen stopped by today to get his eyes on them before he transitions down to Florida with his string of horses within the next couple of days.  See photos of both in their stalls at Overbrook this morning, and as Kelly reported, “Both look great.  Good coats, good weights.”  One thing we have been concentrating on with Rory Huston during this brief freshening is trying to maintain their weights since we are looking to get both back into training ASAP. They have both been doing great with their eating and maintaining weight, a sign of happy and healthy horses!  With Kelly Breen taking the bulk of his string to Palm Meadows and Gulfstream Park, including our 2yo Easy As A.B.C., we are going to send both fillies down to Ocala to start their progression back to the track, and then ultimately into Kelly’s barn at Palm Meadows Training Center when the time is right. 

  • U Kant Whip It is enjoying his turnout at Sunset Meadow Farm, according to Jeanne and we will be planning a visit to see him sometime in November.
  • Our Palace Malice-Lisa Limon ‘21 filly has been sent to Manuden Farm with Nick and Jaqui de Meric for breaking and training towards the Spring Sales. 
  • At Hidden Brook farm, Lisa Limon and her Vino Rosso filly are both doing well.
