Racing How'd You Do?

17 out, 11 hit the board including one 2yo I was most excited about!

17-3-2-4-2 $83,800

Wins:
[color=red]Nephthys (5yo, Akhetnaten) in a NW2 Allowance.
[color=red]Tendresse (2yo, Dark Continent) in a NW3 Allowance. Very happy! Tendresse is the 2nd foal out of my favorite mare and most accomplished horse, GCH. June My Love, and this was her debut race. I was excited over breeding her to DC, so it’s nice to see we’re off to a good start.
[color=blue]Raashid (4yo, High On Love) in a claiming race and stays home.

Places:
[color=blue]Postmaster (2yo, Foolhardy) in a NW3 Allowance.

RC Bee lease [color=red]July Confection (3yo, Invasor) in a maiden.
[color=blue]Honeydew Snort (3yo, Point Given) in a claiming race and stays home.
[color=blue]Light The Tropics (3yo, Black Light II) in a NW1 Allowance. First start for us after being claimed.

[color=red]Ch. Little Black Dress (5yo, Bellagio) 8th in an Allowance.
[color=blue]Divine Comedy (3yo, Double Cross) 6th in an Allowance. Probably the biggest disappointment of the day. He won 2 of 3 starts as a 2yo, bowed a tendon in September, took the rest of the year off and he’s just struggling at 3.

30(10)-3-3(2)-6(2)-2(2) $262,500

Promising performances by two of our 2YO’s but, apart from them, the rest of our 2YO’s continue to be very backward. We’ve probably had more 2YO’s finishing last so far this year than finishing in the money. One consolation is that they will hopefully learn from this experience and do better next time out (they can’t really do worse than finishing last!!!).
