Post Super Bowl Report

What does the Super Bowl have to do with the stable? Outside of the fact we have a light out in the office at Westampton... nothing but the end of football season means we are inching closer to the end of Winter. Had a pretty productive week of training and did manage to win another race which is always a good thing.

Southern Access won her 2nd race in a row Friday night at Penn National. In her 1st race against winners, she quickly moved to the lead, maintained a clear margin and won by 10 lengths. We will look to make it three in a row on March 6th at Penn.

One Revolution a 3 year old Langfuhr filly owned by Dee Tee stable arrived from Virginia last week and has blended right into the stable seamlessly. She worked in company this morning with another newcomer Nose First, going an easy 3 furlongs in 38.20. She did everything right and should maintain a regular work schedule.

Nose First is a 3 year old PA bred by Outflanker owned by his breeder Laura and Larry Ensor's Gum Tree Stable. He did well in his first dirt work and also will move right along in his training.

Malibu Murmur has been entered for Thursday afternoons 8th race at Laurel. The race is a 35000 nw3 claiming race going 1 1/16th and we drew post position number 5 in an 8 horse field. Josean Ramirez who rode her to victory in her last will go down to ride her.

Pleasantly Miranda worked in company with Frosty Merry Eri this morning, going 51.20. They broke off a bit slow and picked it up nicely, finishing the last 1/8 in 12.00 under no urging. Both fillies cooled out well and will work again next weekend.

Lyle's Angel two minute licked 1 1/4 this morning and did really well. She may have an easy work next weekend if she has a good week of training.

Oklahoma Den worked a solid 102.10 today in company with Bourbon County. We are looking for a spot for him to make his return to the races. Bourbon County also worked well and should be ready soon.

Lyford is not progressing as we had hoped and is going to be sent back to the farm.

All Peace N Quiet is hand walking as she recovers from injury.

Tango Master worked in 51.00 by himself this morning. He finished up the work with good energy and is developing nicely.

Small Town Talk was back on the work tab on Saturday. We will work him four furlongs this week as we develop a game plan to get him back to the races though potentially an allowance race at Laurel at the end of the month as a prep for the Excelsior at Aqueduct in March is a possibility.

Made to Love Her had a maintenance work on Friday going 1/2 in 50.80 at Penn. Hopefully we can find a race for her soon that attracts a sufficient number of entries to allow it to go.

Coax Liberty continues to improve and if we can get a patch of good weather it will help her progress immensely.

Mustang Island was back under tack this week, jogging a few miles this weekend. He will gradually return to full training and we hope to have him ready to run once turf season opens back up at the area tracks.

Frostys Whirl worked a solid 101.60 from the gate on Friday at Penn and is about ready to go back into the entry box.
