Labor day works

Carl S. and Comeback went great this morning, going three furlongs in company in 37.20 under Ryan and Cherie. They worked much more professionally today, staying together, switching leads and finishing up well past the wire. They will move to four furlongs next week when we move back to the training center.

Appoint, Campaneris and Normanruth went 1/4 mile in 26 while in company. Appoint went nicely and Normanruth did fine but Campaneris may need a little more seasoning before progressing to three furlongs. Normanruth was on the inside of the three and held his ground well and Appoint did a good job while between horses but Campaneris wanted no part of the others and needs more schooling before we start going too fast and far with her.

Rampillion and Graphite Halo worked well this morning though the clockers apparently missed a lot of the work, giving them a 38.20 clocking despite their working four furlongs and galloping out fast enough to get credit for another eighth. Rampillion broke off outside of Graphite Halo and was going a a good clip passing the 1/2 mile pole. They stayed together through out the work and both galloped out strong. They will work another half mile out of the gate next week, probably on the 6th or 7th.
