After a ho-hum 4YO season, Ho’opa’i’s come back firing as a router. Surprised but also hopeful he can make a splash in some stakes races.

I’m more excited that Eighteen Karat sired the winner of today’s G1 Del Mar Oaks. He’s had a slow start, which doesn’t surprise me, but I was hoping his 3YOs will start getting good right around now. Looks like I might be right  ;D
