  • Tracy Ann's Legacy ran them off their feet under Paco Lopez in the opening day feature race at Gulfstream Park today, making the lead and never looking back to win going away by better than 3 lengths. She came into the race doing really well and when she drew the favorable outside post we knew with a good break she’d be very tough to beat despite facing a highly competitive field. As explained so many times, much of racing is the trip and we got it here as she broke like a shot and Paco played ‘catch me if you can’ for the entire race. Tracy picked up a very generous $28,900 winning purse as a Florida bred, her second win in four starts since being claimed for just $22,000 in July at Monmouth Park (she was 2nd in an allowance and 4th in a stake in her other two starts for us). You couldn’t possibly dream up a better start to Gulfstream’s premier meet than winning the opening day feature race, or a better start to the final month of what has been an outstanding year for Kenwood runners with 17 wins from 90 starts and counting. A huge congratulations to trainer Kelly Breen and his hard-working crew and all the happy owners in our incredibly successful active racing group #58!
  • Fire's Finale got the worst possible post #1 in an overflow 15 horse field for the Pa. Nursery Stakes at Parx next Monday (the exact opposite draw to Tracy Ann above who drew the perfect post). He gets the leading rider at Parx, Mychel Sanchez, has been training exceptionally well for this and comes into it fresh and fit with an experience edge over most of these. In a field this large especially breaking from the rail it’s all about the trip he gets (as it is with most races but even more so here). It should be an exciting day and hopefully a good ending to a great two year old year for him. Please email George@kenwoodracing.com if you plan to attend. Remember Covid restrictions can change day to day in terms of access so please check with us before you go to Parx, at the moment owners ARE admitted. After the race, Fire’s Finale will head down to Ocala for a little R&R to have him fresh and fit for a big three year old campaign next year.

  • Life On the Edge shipped to Rory Huston at Overbrook Farm to resume training yesterday and arrived safely The brief bit of R&R did her a world of good after a long campaign this year and she looks ready to get back to action now. After about 30 days she should be ready to ship into Kelly Breen at Belmont Park and if all goes well she’ll be running in New York this winter.
  • Adhwaa good out of a nice maintenance work and we’re looking for a race for her anywhere in the northeast. She’s doing excellent, sitting on a win. We’ve entered multiple times now at multiple tracks, usually not so hard to get a race to go for a maiden. We hope to get her in the entries shortly somewhere.

  • Seven Seven is expected to go back into training at Overbrook farm in January, doing excellent.
  • Pango well and happy in Ocala at de Meric farm. He’ll get turnout in a nice paddock for about 30 days, then daily swimming for about 30 days, and then go back into training with the goal of having him fit and ready to return to trainer Mark Salvaggio at Penn National by the end of the winter and ready to run when the first turf races appear in the northeast next spring. He had a terrific year for us, ending with two straight impressive wins, and we are looking forward to another big year with him in 2021.
  • Lisa Limon and weanling by Liam’s Map both very well in Kentucky. We’re pleased to announce Lisa will be bred to the very popular young sire Bolt d’Oro in 2021. An exceptionally fast and beautifully bred horse, Bolt d’Oro was bred to 214 mares in 2019 and his first foals to hit the sales ring averaged over $90,000 as weanlings this year. Lisa is due to foal in early March.
