3/16

No money… but well, adventurous day.

[color=blue]Ch. Gold Tic was only 7th/10 in Swale Stakes, the winner was limping after the race. So at least he didn’t get injured. It’s his best speed figure this year.

[color=red]Akasha was 7th/11 in her steeplechase, also her best speed figure this year. Congrats to the owners of Minerva for setting a new speed record!

[color=red]Ellejolet was 8th/14 in her allowance for mares, better SF than before. Congrats to the owners of Ch. Valore di Bellezza for another speed record here!

None sent out but did bring one home  ::)

[color=red]High Expectations (4yo, Double Cross) won her claimer by six lengths. She’s lightly raced (5th lifetime start today) and has won three of her four races this year. Out of a SW mare she should make a nice broodmare in the future. Plus we’re short on her sire’s progeny so hopefully she’ll be a good buy.

Another good day. 6 runners sent out, they all brought back paychecks, taking our earnings for this year over the $10m mark.

3 Wins
[color=blue]Hogsmeade, (3yo, Highland Magic x Blarneystone Lane) 1/6 in an NW3 at Aqueduct. After winning his first ever race, he hasn’t finished in the first 3 in any other races, until today. He had been switched to SC’ing after his last race so hopefully he’ll start to emulate his older half-brother [color=blue]Ch. Hogwarts, who is an MSW and has already achieved Ch. status.
[color=red]Ch. Saucy Magician, (3yo, Magic Glory x Kinda Sassy) 1/10 in the G3 Swale Stakes at Gulfstream. 2nd consecutive win and 3rd in her last four starts. She came back limping so will be heading home to recuperate.
[color=blue]Ch. Bracton, (3yo, Rumor Has It x Lady of Honour) 1/10 in the G1 Cox Plate in Australia. 3rd consecutive SW (all this year) and 4th consecutive win. 2nd Starfish horse to have earned over $1m for this year. Will have one more race in Australia then will be headed to England for the English Classics.

1 Second
[color=red]Ch. Giant’s Debate, (4yo, Giant’s Causeway x Time’s Debatable) 2/10 in the Ung San Pedro Stakes at Santa Anita. Hopefully she’s getting back to her form from last year after two sub-par perfromances this year.

1 Third
[color=red]DashingCoronaRose, (3yo, Worth my While x By By Birdie) 3/14 in the G3 Gotham Stakes at Aqueduct. Definitely likes the jumping game and has 2 wins (including 1 SW) and a 3rd in her 3 races over jumps.

Also Ran
[color=red]Ch. Moony’s Fancy, (4yo, Moonopoly x Fanci Remark) 5/10 in the Ung Irish O’Brien Stakes at Santa Anita.

Ok day, no wins but we sent 6 out and half were in the money

[color=red]Bea Godsall (3yo, Highland Magic) ran 2nd in her NW2 allowance, turns out shes a turf gal

[color=red]Alluring Girl (3yo, Highland Bandit) ran 3rd in a maiden. Can’t get her to break her maiden… She likes 3rd. :confused:

[color=red]Solo Sunset (4yo, War Chant) ran 3rd in the Irish O’Brien Stakes. I don’t think I gave her a big enough break between races but i’ll take the 3rd!

Two out today, both flopped.

[color=green]Ch. GoToThe Devil ran in 10.0f SC Gr. 3 Gotham Stakes for 3yo+ and placed 8th/14. He was second toward the end until he dropped back. Too long, now I know.  :frowning:

[color=red]She’s Gawne ran in 10.0f NW3 Allowance for 3yo+ F/M (SC) and placed 5th/11. In the money, but still not great. One more race at a shorter distance will determine if she’s over her prime.

Four out, no winners, but two brought home paychecks so yay?

Homebred [color=red]Quorra is a slooooow filly, sigh. She placed in an 8.5f dirt NW2 for 3YOs. Yep, definitely keeping her in her conditions.

[color=blue]Little Lion Man finished fourth in a 9.5f dirt maiden for 3YOs. He ran with a SR this time, so we’re gonna shorten him up a bit and see if that’ll suit him better.

[color=green]Magnificent Red and [color=red]USS Enterprise both finished off the board. One is shortening up and the other is going longer for their next starts.

Sent out 5 today, & 2 came back with money!

[color=red]Lunar Princess (Ch. Moonopoly) won her first race! She was 50:1 so the fact that she won really surprised me!

[color=red]Egalite came in 3rd in a NW1 steeplechase.

Holy crap, if I hadn’t been ambitious with the two stakes entries, this would have been the best day in my FF racing history! Still darn good, though. Sent out 8 and 5 hit the board (4 winning!). We lost our claim but that was probably for the best.

[color=blue]Greatkingsofmen (Highland Laird) was 1st/7 in his NW1 by 5-1/2 lengths.
[color=green]Vuela Vuela (Point Given) ran 1st/6 in his NW2. Stablemate [color=blue]Dandywine (Highland Bandit) was 2nd.
[color=green]A Knight’s Tale (Must Be Magic) had an equipment change and was 1st/6 in his claimer and stays home.
[color=blue]Bandwagon (King David) ran 1st/6 in his starter allowance.

Also-rans: [color=green]Legal Strategy (9th/13 OA; no clue why he bombed since he’s been doing so well this year. I’ll blame the wet track), [color=blue]Breakfast in Bed (11th/14 G3; back to the OA’s), [color=blue]Nindalf (13th/14 G3; also back to the OA’s).
