Wednesday Update

The horses that ran this weekend have all come out of their races in good shape. Ship's Cabin will be running back in a maiden $40000 race going 1 1/16th at Keeneland on the 23rd. Albin will be pointed for November 1st at Churchill Downs going 1 mile on the turf in a maiden special weight. Plans for Makutus are still in the air, though a turf start may be possible.


Graphite Halo had an educational trip today in the 5th at Keeneland. We weren't looking a huge effort first time out but wanted her to have a good trip and gain some experience. Diego Rodriguez did a good job in schooling her early in the race, coming up the rail inside of horses and finishing up strong in the lane. Though it does not look like much on paper, her race was something that she will improve upon.


We postponed this mornings works due to a muddy track at CDT. Tomorrow, weather permitting, we will work Comeback, Carl S., Aldebutante, and Appoint.



Bill Recio reports that Shades of Hope has really turned the corner in his training at the Classic Mile training center and his silly behavior seems to be a thing of the past. He will join the main stable shortly.



Richwood Silver continues to train well and Campaneris is also progressing nicely. Bubble Berry has also been doing well and at BEC, Galaxy Lady, Sugarland Star and Italiano Operetta have been improving.
