Rain Shower 4th

Rain Shower was 4th today in the 6th at Arlington today. She broke a step slow and trailed through glacial fractions in 9th place before putting a mild rail rally to be 4th, beaten about 3 lengths. It wasnt a bad race but it gets frustrating having so many turf closers and so many races without any pace. Chart

Fading Light worked well this morning at Churchill Downs getting four furlongs in 49.20. We changed her shoes around and it seems to have helped her. She is being pointed to an allowance race at Arlington on September 5th.

Makutus blew out extremely fast this morning going 3 furlongs in 34 and being credited for his gallop out time of 46.40 as his official time. The race he was entered for at Arlington did not fill for Saturday and was brought back for Sunday's card which may be good for us as it gives him one more day to recover from such a fast work.
