Bad news as Comeback is running a slight fever and will have to be scratched from tomorrows 9th race. While it is disappointing I am glad that we caught it prior to him running and will be able to treat him before it becomes full blown sickness. He got an 11 on the Thorograph speed rating for his first start which is a very solid number for a first time starter.
The good news is that Shades of Hope has been training very well at Classic Mile. Our patience has served him well and he is finally set to arrive in Kentucky next week. We are sending a couple of two year olds down to Ocala on Sunday and Shades will be heading back on the return trip. Bill Recio remains high on the horse and says he is a few solid works away from being ready to run.
Cool Clue came out of his work on Tuesday in good shape. He went in 49.20 under a snug hold from Hector Rosario and is looking better with every work. He is another horse that appears to have has benefited from our patience with him.
Graphite Halo zipped around the track in 36.60 and returned full of energy. I dont know why she ran so poorly last time but I am going to remove the blinkers. I think that we should take a look at a maiden $30000 race at Turfway on the 20th going a mile on the polytrack.
Normanruth and Sugarland Star both came out of their easy works in good shape. Sugarland hates the mud. Normanruth has gotten a little chubby due to the recent inactivity.
Fading Light is quite pleased with herself at the moment and it shows in her training. She is not far from a return to the races.
Kickin N Screamin is also going well. She needs a few more works and she will be ready to roll also.
Richwood Silver is sharp and will be tough if the race on the 16th fills.
