Friday Year 26 Week 15

One more week to go of racing before the break. 21 running tonight, another pretty questionable group.

A Friend of Mine - 3-year-old AW route gelding - I sponsored a 25K NW2 for him and stablemate Big Guns, eight horses in the field. 4 55

Big Guns - 3-year-old AW route gelding - Same as the race above, this might be a little long for him, though. 5 52

Carnoustie - 2-year-old turf mile filly - A little filly I bought for $1, she's made 4K so I can't complain. Tonight she's in a 15K MSW with a full field. Not sure how she'll do.
1 64

Disbelieving - 3-year-old gelding - Hasn't done well anywhere, there's a chance he might make a chaser, trying him on turf tonight in a 20K MSW, three horse field and one of the horses is from AJ. Probably the only way this guy is going to earn any money. 1 46

Dream of Dreams - 2-year-old turf route filly - Third start. She's in a 15K sponsored maiden claimer, nine horse field and a 10K purse. She's well-bred but hasn't shown anything so far. 8 23

Euridice - 3-year-old turf sprint filly - There wasn't much out there for her, so she's in a 15K NW3, eleven horse field including stablemate Night Race. I doubt she'll be making any money tonight. 6 39

Expedite - 4-year-old dirt sprint gelding - Steward-bred that has just recently made his original purchase price back. Tonight he's in a 32K claimer with a full field and a 20K purse. Others look more likely here. 9 39

Inspired Past - 2-year-old dirt sprint colt - He has one win in four starts and has pretty much struggled since winning first out. Tonight he's in a 32K claimer, eleven horse field and a 20K purse. Others look better. 2 63

Its All in My Head - 3-year-old turf mile filly - Running in a 15K starter allowance, five horse field. She's the only maiden. 5 44

Joyful Bliss - 3-year-old turf sprint filly - Running in a 15K MSW, six horse field, don't know if she'll get up for a check or not. 5 27

Joyride - 3-year-old turf sprint filly - Running in a sponsored 25K NW2, eight horse field. Others look more likely. 7 33

Magic Mountain - 3-year-old turf route filly - She's entered in 15K MSW, ten horse field. This is only her third start for me but I think she might have a shot at getting up for some earnings here. 5 46

Night Race - 3-year-old turf sprint filly - Running in a 15K NW3, eleven horse field including stablemate Euridice. She has a better shot at getting up for a check, I think. 1 62

Peaceable Kingdom - 2-year-old turf mile filly - Running in a 20K NW2, nine horse field, this is her first try at a mile, not sure if she'll like it. 4 52

Performing Is Life - 3-year-old turf gelding - Trying him at a route for the first time in a 35K MSW, four horse field. 4 31

Rampant Sands - 3-year-old dirt mile filly - This is her third start for me, running in a 20K MSW, six horse field. I'll probably be dropping her down to sprints after this. 3 52

Stepping Out - 4-year-old turf route gelding - Running in a 300K Grade 1 stakes, six horse field. He was originally a filler but another horse showed up. There's one monster and a lot of other really good horses. Hope he can get up for a piece of it but not sure if he can. 6 33

Summer Pleasure - 4-year-old AW route filly - This is her second start on AW, won the first time out in a sponsored NW2. She's in a 250K Grade 1 stakes, ten horse field. This very well may be her last race before retirement so I'd like her to be able to get up for a piece of it but I have no expectations here. 9 23

Trundle - 2-year-old dirt sprint filly - Running in a 15K claimer, eleven horse field and a 15K purse. 5 49

Warm Heart - 2-year-old turf mile filly - Running in a 15K MSW with a full field. No idea how she'll do with this group. 10 33

Zeppoli - 2-year-old turf mile filly - Running in a sponsored, restricted 15K claimer, four horse field and a 10K purse. A fairly even group, it's a toss-up. 1 58 CLAIMED

Earnings for the night - $43,700
