  • First up Life On the Edge sat a good stalking trip off a very slow pace, made a move turning for home and flattened out, finishing 4th. No excuse except perhaps she’s tailed off a bit after a long, competitive summer. She did the same about this time last year and after a little time off last winter, came back to have a huge year for us at Monmouth Park so we’ll give her a brief freshener at the farm now and bring her back this winter.
  • Next up Rapstorerocks was 5th at Penn National with no excuse. Sat a good trip, made a bold move turning for home and simply flattened out in the stretch. After the race both rider and trainer felt he’s better sprinting than going long, so we’ll try turning back to a sprint next time.
  • Pango runs tomorrow at Penn National. Not the ideal spot; a longer distance than his best plus a jump in class, but as with New Found Treasure turf opportunities get very limited this time of year and the horse is doing great. He’s in great form so if he can handle the 2 turns he’ll run well in here.
  • Fire's Finale doing excellent. Runs Oct. 12th for a very nice purse at Parx which for him as a Pa. bred has a 40% bonus. He’s the logical favorite here and with his best effort and a decent trip, should be tough to beat.
  • Adhwaa is ready to run, race didn’t go last week at Monmouth Park so we entered her at Parx and that didn’t go either. There’s a race at Monmouth Park to enter in tomorrow for Monday, and a couple of out of town options to look at if that doesn’t go. We are anticipating a good debut from her wherever she runs.
  • Highwaytwentyseven doing really well; was entered at Monmouth Park but the race didn’t go, we are looking for other options for him.
  • Itsgottabemyway had a nice maintenance work at Monmouth Park and is ready to run, just looking for a spot for her.

  • Blu Candy has come to hand quickly at Monmouth Park after returning from a brief layoff at the farm. Once a horse starts working that generally means they are 8 weeks +/- from a race, so there’s a good shot she makes it to the races this fall.

  • New Found Treasure well out of her race at Penn National. Hoping to find another turf spot somewhere for her before grass racing ends in the region for the season.
  • Giuliana Vee will be entered this Friday for next Friday at Penn National, doing well, no issues.
  • Tracy Ann's Legacy very well out of her 4th in the Buddy Raines stakes. There’s an extra race at Monmouth Park that’s perfect for her (the same race she won for us previously), if we can get them to hold off using it for another week we think she’ll be able to run back in it. Stay tuned. She’s been a very profitable horse for us and we expect lots more good races to come with her.
  • Seven Seven well at Sunset Meadow farm, all good.
  • Lisa Limon and weanling by Liam’s Map both very well in Kentucky.
