• Annie’s Candy run a huge race at Sacramento this evening from last with a rush in the stretch to finish 2nd, beaten ¾ of a length for the win. A few steps after the wire he was in front, another fine effort for this super-consistent runner. Will run back at Santa Rosa in August and then back to Golden Gate where he has a truly incredible record.
  • Bullion had a nice easy breeze at Churchill Downs (below) after joining trainer Steve Asmussen’s string there. Steve reports he’s in good shape and he will be looking to get him in the entries shortly.
  • Exchanging Ember doing fine since retuning to training at Penn National last week, fingers crossed for a return to the races next month. Here is a  photo of her training at Penn National over the weekend (she’s the horse in front, not a great photo but you can see she’s training towards a start now).

  • Solar doing super, not a bad step or issue since claiming him at the end of last month. He’ll be entered this Wednesday for next weekend.  He’s ready and looks like he’s sitting on a big debut effort for us.
  • Our most recent addition to the Kenwood family, New Found Treasure is doing very well, claimed for Kenwood and group #54. With the Red Rocks (IRE) colt, now named Rapstorerocks in group #54 doing super, should be a lot of fun this summer
  • Life On the Edge doing well post-race, looking to breeze her in about 10 days and hopefully make her next start in August. She showed a ton of speed and talent, battling head to head for the lead in a fast pace for most of her debut. With the speed she showed she should be tough to beat with a race under her belt next time out.
  • Works below for Magic Musketier (should run in August at Del Mar), Starring John Wain (race for him July 31st at Del Mar), both doing excellent.
  • Lisa Limon fine at farm in Kentucky, in foal, will be sold in November or January. Her covering sire, Liam’s Map, just had his first winner today at Saratoga, breaking his maiden impressively in a $90,000 maiden special weight race.

Finally, so many of you have written about the debacle at the Haskell. We share your feelings and your frustrations. So do a lot of others, “Watchmaker: Heat wave leads to one strange Saturday “
