Horse by Horse News  

  • New Found Treasure “went easy, nice” Giuliana Vee “worked good, doing fine” Rapstorerocks “Julio Hernandez worked him, never works horses fast and he likes him” and No Good Deed “doing real good” – (comments from trainer Mark Salvaggio) all worked at Penn National yesterday. Like everyone we are waiting for racing to resume at Penn. Unlike neighboring states where racing is set to resume, Pennsylvania is in the midst of a political battle and the date for tracks to re-open are still unknown, although news this morning indicated a possible agreement for racing to resume in June. Mark is looking at alternate tracks to run at beginning next month if racing is not officially scheduled to resume at Penn. It’s a challenging situation for everyone and we will keep you posted.
  • Fire’s Finale had another excellent work yesterday at Gulfstream Park. Went under wraps and still showed speed. Trainer Ron Spatz took this brief video of him at the track and thinks he’s about 30 – 40 days from his debut at this point. 
  • Seven Seven  also doing really well, he’ll ship into Monmouth Park as soon as trainer Kelly Breen’s other horses arrive from Florida very shortly. Owner Ralph Pastore was on hand for his training yesterday at Overbrook Farm, took these photos and commented “He is doing very well, the rider said he is her favorite and will follow him throughout his career as he has a great ease when working”.
  • Pango, good out of an improved 4th last weekend at Gulfstream Park. It was without question a step forward and hopefully he’ll be ready for another move forward next time.
  • Life on the Edge  ok out of a mess of a race last weekend at Gulfstream Park. Her body turned the wrong way when they opened the gate, was caught flatfooted and squeezed, and after pressing the pace stopped to a walk and was eased to the wire. Fortunately she seems to have come back ok out of this, went back to the track today and trained fine at Palm Meadows. She will have the opportunity to make amends at Monmouth Park, she’s schedule to head north with the bulk of Kelly Breen’s Florida horses very shortly.

  • Lisa Limon and her handsome Liam’s Map foal at Hidden Brook Farm, both doing excellent. Here’s a nice video of the foal learning to walk under the direction of a handler yesterday. They are taught lessons from a young age and you can see he’s calm, growing rapidly, and looks absolutely fantastic…
