Horse by Horse News
- Life on the Edge had a terrific work in company this morning at Palm Meadows (work below and video here). While it was the fastest work of the day, that means very little, what matters is how she did it. Kelly said she went great, that’s the real good news, not the workout time. She was entered yesterday and today in a great spot on the grass and when the race didn’t go we opted for a dirt race that did go, so she runs Friday at Gulfstream Park.
- Pango was scratched yesterday at Gulfstream Park. It was a large, very tough field of 11 horses and torrential rains created a very sloppy, sealed track. Ron Spatz said the horse is “doing great now, as well as he’s been in weeks” and he didn’t want to risk him running on a bad track and going backwards out of a really rough race. With us, the welfare of the horse always comes first. He’s ready to run and we’ll look for the next possible spot for him. We entered him today for Friday but that race didn’t go.
- Fire’s Finale continues to train exceptionally well at Gulfstream Park. It’s obviously still early in the process and no guarantees, but so far it’s all good news with this horse. He came into this with the pedigree and the conformation to make a very nice horse and it seems after a couple works he has a good mind and the desire to be a racehorse. We certainly have reason to be looking forward to his debut, which could be towards the end of June or in early July if all keeps going this well. Expect him to have some gate work in the next couple of days.
- Lookinlikeaqueen ready to roll! She had an absolutely super work last weekend and we entered her twice this week in races that did not go at Gulfstream Park, there’s another spot for her to enter this week. In the words of Ron Spatz “Lookinlikeaqueen worked like a queen, she went 48.3 and a decent gallop out. I was very happy with her breeze”.
- Seven Seven training strongly at Overbrook Farm in New Jersey. He’s looks absolutely great, what a strong, handsome colt.
- New Found Treasure, Giuliana Vee and No Good Deed all well at Penn National. Like everyone we are waiting for racing to resume in the northeast. The hoped for date for racing to resume at Penn is still unknown but we’ll have them ready to run in whatever race comes up for them.
- Rapstorerocks well at Penn National. Mark Salvaggio likes what he sees so far and thinks he has a shot to do well there this summer. He should be ready to run when racing resumes at Penn.
General News
- Good racing news as Belmont Park is cleared to resume racing June 1st. It’s a big step towards a full schedule of racing in the northeast, Monmouth Park is scheduled to begin their season July 3rd.
- Speaking of workouts, here’s a great article from TDN about works and workout times, nothing our people haven’t heard before but worth reading for sure…Published Workouts: Inaccuracies are Inexcusable
