Just one out today; and it’s less than three hours till Pegasus!
Places:
[color=blue]Thom Browne (3yo, I’m No Fool) in a NW2 Allowance - both his parents were best as 4yo’s so I hope that he’s going to be slowly improving…
To be honest, not as bad as I expected so there’s that.
Places:
[color=red]Innovation (6yo, Crystal Rainbow) in a maiden - I thought she was going to finish just ahead of Queen’s Command and be left in the dust by the younger horses, but maybe this means there’s still hope for her to get in some decent races before retirement?
Fourths:
[color=blue]Ready Player One (4yo, Player) in a NW1 Allowance - Still always in the money, but never a winner
Fifths:
[color=red]Queen’s Command (6yo, Foolhardy) in a maiden - This mare is a lease, and she seems pretty done with running. At this point, I think at this point the goal is to get her through her 10 starts and then send her home to her owner to be a broodmare
[color=red]Silver Sparkler (4yo, Formal Occasion) in a NW3 Allowance
Also Rans:
[color=blue]Secret Chord (3yo, Hidden Destiny) 10th in an Allowance - He had a decent 2yo year and now can’t find his feet anymore. Hopefully as the year goes on he’ll be better.
[color=red]Infatuation (3yo, Demand the Best) 8th in a maiden - Another 3yo that I’m hoping is maybe a late bloomer?
Train wreck day. At least having a horse claimed + winning a claim broke even, as they were in the same race, lol.

[color=blue]Skellig (3yo, Lord Nelson) in a claiming race and goes home with Sakura Springs.

Fifths:
[color=red]Tottenham High St (3yo, Tottenham Hotspur) in a claiming race. Excited to snatch up this daughter of Tottenham Hotspur out of a platinum mare. Spent more than I wanted, but those lines + strawberry roan means I had to take a chance. We’ve sent her home for a long rest then will return in the late spring.
Also Rans:

[color=blue]Alpha Quadrant (4yo, I’m Your Angel) in a NW3 Allowance
[color=blue]Skellig (3yo, Lord Nelson) in a claiming race - this one was pricier than I normally go for, but his race times looked pretty good, I still have money from Color Wars to invest, and I am in desperate need of some better stock, so… here’s to hoping! XD
Fifths:
[color=red]My Lady’s Fool (7yo, Foolhardy) in a NW2 Allowance - no surprise here. I’m just running this lady till she has enough races under her belt to retire to broodmare.
Also Rans:
