Much the same kind of results as Cat, our guys either ran really well or really bad.
Betrothed made her first start in over a year and her first start for us since we purchased her from the Select Auction. She wired the field in a dirt maiden for fillies and mares and came home in front by 2 lengths. 1st/6
We recently leased Bockatay and she made her first start for us today in a turf NW1 for fillies and finished an encouraging 2nd/7.
Double Luck seems to be back on form knocks on wood since winning an OA last out she finished a determined 2nd/14 in the Ungraded Schenactady.
Her past 6 starts Romantic Memory has been facing stakes company and holding her own. We sent her home for 2 weeks rest and figured we’d bring her back and give her a bit of a breather and hopefully a confidence boost in an OA for fillies. It seemed to work as she gamely fought off a challenge deep stretch to win. 1st/6.
Not too bad overall; several finishers from today decided their BC fate, though.
2yo
[color=blue]Personable Joe (A.P. Indy) finished 2nd/8 in his NW3.
[color=red]Daytona Weekend (A.P. Indy) ran 5th/9 in her OA.
[color=blue]Spirit of Autumn (Lasting Spirit) ran 4th/8 in his OA.
Recently-purchased [color=green]Rite of Passage made back his price by finishing 3rd/6 in a NW2, with stablemate [color=blue]Moonstorm 4th.
[color=green]Scrambled Egg continues to flop for no reason and ran 8th/14 in his OA.
[color=red]Luv a Drama finished 8th/12 in her OA and has been sent home for rest.
[color=red]Hot Nurse ran 2nd in the G1 George Ryder Stakes.
Definetely better than last Saturday. We claimed a cute 2yo filly [color=red]Mattie North by Point Given, and she finished second in her race. She will start some training in Woodbine.
Not a bad day. No wins either, but a decent percentage hit the board… and, an unexpected place!
[color=blue]Set On Fire managed a show in his allowance. He seems to have inherited his parent’s endurance preference, but has yet to show a real preference for surface… I’m personally rooting for SC, but we’ll find the lowest class turf endurance first.
[color=red]Notoriety (No Duplicate), [color=red]Sardonyx, and [color=red]Nonchalant (No Duplicate) kinda floundered in 5ths and 6ths, but they were all entered in higher qualifying classes… but! They seem to be figuring things out. Slowly.
[color=red]No Alibi and [color=red]Magical Kisses (Must Be Magic) ran neck and neck in their maiden for 3rd and 4th, respectively.
[color=red]Payday, [color=blue]Gotta Be Nice (Gotta Go), [color=blue]Sovereign Ruler, [color=red]Party Crasher and [color=red]Silk Cut are still finding their running legs. Like silly 2 y/os, they all finished off the board…
[color=blue]Peak of Perfection (No Duplicate) was a nice surprise. He fought for a place in the G.1 Turf Classic Invitational! We’ve been pulling for this guy for awhile and entered him in this race after his recent impressive allowance win (expecting him to be pretty outclassed). He’s finally reached millionaire status, which is great! His dam, A.P. Diamond had a stellar 4 y/o year over SC, so we’re hoping that he finishes the year on the turf and possibly transitions to SC in the following year.
Sent out 16 horses and had some very disappointing runs , and a few surprises, am really upset with Kichiro totally bombing his stakes race,I probably won’t run anyone in the BC races at this rate, I wont have the money unless my auction does well.Some of these horses are in the auction.

[color=red]Molly Girl-6.0f NW3 Allow, 2yo,[color=red]7th no idea why she didn’t try
[color=red]Danzin on a Star-5.0f Allowance for 3yo+ F, [color=red]1st she is coming back to her old self and her stablemate was right with her at the finish
[color=red]High Wire Dancing-5.0f Allowance for 3yo+ F, [color=red]2nd. Happy with her really seems to be finding her stride
[color=red]Zyree-6.0f Ungr. Schenactady for 3yo+ F, [color=red]11th completely acted up and refused to run
[color=blue]Kichiro-12.0f Gr. 1 Turf Classic Invitational 3yo+, [color=blue]11th completely bombed it, very dissapointed ,he has never done so bad! 16(2)-2-3-1-3 $93,200
[color=blue]I’M NO FOOL added his 11th grade one to his impressive record with a win in the George Ryder Stakes. He’s now just one stakes win away from becoming only the sixth Final Furlong Champion (joining his sire). He is also equal third for the most stakes wins overall (with King David at 25 wins). I’m super happy with him and even happier I finally bred a ‘monster’. He’ll have a couple of starts before the Breeders’ Cup races.
[color=red]MAKEMEAMATCH had her first start for me in the tough Flower Bowl Invitational (Gr.1). She managed fifth which isn’t too bad given her last start was early May. She’ll try a lower grade stakes next start - she’s only five points off Grand Champion status.
