Saturday
I thought when I started this blog that it could be a tool to help me figure out some of my horses. It really hasn't worked out that way, so this will probably be my final entry. I may still blog occasionally but it takes up too much time with no reward. With very few decent filler races this year I'm emptying my barn of almost all of my filler horses and next will be the broodmares. There really won't be too much to blog about.

Monday Year 27 Week 5
Already week 5, SIM time is just flying by. 25 running tonight, originally 26 but one must have slipped into a AE after I went to bed last night and got scratched. And apparently she was the lucky one! Worse racing night in a long while for me.
Coffee in Bed - 3-year-old filly - Homebred, this is her second start on AW, she came in second in her first AW start, time to see if she really likes it or was just playing with me. 15K msw, ten horse field. 3 47
Dvoyeveriye - 5-year-old horse - A hard-knocker that always seems to try his best, I've only had him for three races and I keep forgetting to geld him. 10K allowance, nine horse field. two confirmed monsters, at least. 4 58
Elfin - 2-year-old filly - Homebred, second start, came in third first out (52), tonight it's another msw for 15K and a seven horse field. 4 51
Face Value - 4-year-old gelding - Homebred running in a 10K NW2, eleven horse field. He usually runs as a filler for me, so not sure how he'll do. 8 37
Garbo - 3-year-old filly - Homebred that I had high hopes for but fizzled pretty quickly. She may be just waiting for me to put her into longer races. She's running in a 75K listed stakes, six horse field. 5 45
Golden Warrior - 4-year-old filly - She's done pretty well so far, earning something in each of her eleven starts. Hopefully she can continue to do so tonight in this 15K NW2, eleven horse field. 6 45
Ipswich - 2-year-old filly - First start. She will probably prefer longer but thought she may as well get the workout and the experience. 45K claimer, four horse field and a purse of 12K. 4 43
Irish Flight - 3-year-old filly - A $10 AJ buy, sent off to GP with only one work and no starts. This is her second start, came in third first out for me. Her female line traces back to Glorious Song the dam of both Unsounded and War Song. Hoping she can do well in this 12K msw, eleven horse field. 9 26
Johnny Rocks - 2-year-old colt - Homebred, first start. Another that will probably prefer longer but thought might benefit from the race experience. 75K "Top of the Line" stakes, five horse field. 5 42
Keep Me Safe - 3-year-old filly - From one of the Mallory Claire dispersal auctions, this is her first start. Grand dam is Embrace. She's in a 12K msw for her first start, nine horse field. 4 49
Kindness - 4-year-old filly - I would like to see this girl finally break her maiden, I've used her as a filler a lot but her female line goes all the way back to Once Wed, dam of T M Awesome O. She's in a 10K msw, four horse field. 3 48
Meet Your Waterloo - 3-year-old colt - Homebred who has done pretty well for me. Winning one stakes and placing in another. Tonight he's running in the 75K New Mexico Derby against a tough field of nine other horses. I'm hoping he can be up there at the end. 6 51
Orlando - 6-year-old gelding - Not great at chasing but fills nicely. Tonight he's in a 15K NW4, five horse field. 4 61
Paper in Fire - 3-year-old gelding - Homebred that is a twin, neither he nor his sister have shown much potential. 15K msw, nine horse field. 6 35
Parsells - 2-year-old colt - Homebred, first start, also will like longer but running in a 15K NW2 claimer, five horse field and a purse of 12K. 5 40
Philadelphia Flyer - 7-year-old gelding - Had a decent flat career and has three starts chasing with one second place finish. Tonight he's in a 15K msw, ten horse field. 6 53
Point Royale - 5-year-old gelding - Didn't do well on the flats, hasn't done too well chasing, but is a decent filler. Running in a 12K NW2, five horse field. 5 55
Rockabilly Blues - 4-year-old filly - Second start for me, won last out. Female line traces back to Silverbulletday. Running in a 25K sponsored NW3, seven horse field.
4 48
Sad Eyes - 4-year-old filly - Homebred that failed on the flats, now trying steeplechasing. This is her second start over the hurdles in a 15K NW4, five horse field. 1 74
Say Uncle - 2-year-old filly - Homebred, first start, will also prefer longer. Trying her out in the 60K Head For The Hills Stakes, five horse field. 5 44
Sensual Hall - 5-year-old mare - Another $10 AJ horse, female line goes back to Skyscraper. I'm hoping to get her earnings up a bit this year. 15K NW2, ten horse field. 10 29
Shroom - 4-year-old filly - Homebred that keeps knocking on the door of getting her maiden win but it hasn't happened yet. Running in a 25K sponsored NW2, five horse field. Trying to see if the longer distance helps her at all, though she is outclassed here. 5 42
Ultimate Best - 2-year-old filly - Second start, won at first asking. It's a little tougher for her tonight in this 15K NW2, six horse field. All are winners. 4 52
You Need Your Head - 4-year-old colt - Homebred who has done well for me. Trying him tonight in the 150K Grade 2 Pakistan Derby where he should relish the longer distance but it's a really tough nine horse field, including one that just beat him last out in the Liari Cup. 6 48
Yumling - 2-year-old filly - First start, running in the 75K Carnival Stakes, five horse field. 5 41
Earnings for the night - $24,310 (includes breeder award for Sad Eyes)

Sunday
I worked all of my yearlings yesterday, eventhough I was originally going to wait on some of them. Got some nice surprises and nice works, only one or two that were truly horrible and they came from other peoples breeding. The best works came from the Arabians, which is a shame since it will be two more SIM years before they will hit the track.
It'smybirthdaytoo worked 6F in a lighting fast 1:21.14, and was the second fastest yearling work at that distance from 40 Arabian yearlings that worked this weekend. Shingle (Haafiz) had the sixth fastest work at 1:21.20, ninth fastest was Rumor Control (Uday) with 1:21.28. Others of note were:
11th - Just Say It (Sayitsyourbirthday) - 1:21.36
19th - Duff (Thunder Nation) - 1:1:21.51
29th - Poke Poke Punch (Sayitsyourbirthday) - 1:21.68
34th - Sayitsyourminx (Sayitsyourbirthday) - 1:21.84 (breeder C. Everett)
36th - Thunder's Image (Thunder Nation) - 1:21.92
The sprinters didn't fare nearly as well but hopefully will improve at 2.
TB's did pretty well, nothing to knock my socks off, but some fairly fast works along with solid efforts.
Did a little more breeding last night and sold off two more horses.
Onto Monday.

Saturday
*My experiment in switching surfaces for some of the horses failed totally.
*The Steward-bred curse continues, except for Cry Silently who finally hits the board and breaks her maiden at the same time.
*I shouldn't complain since I've made over a million in four weeks of racing. Can't even claim mostly fillers as most of the races have gone to over five horse fields.
*I have almost 300 lifetime maiden wins.
*Only four stakes wins so far, been mostly running in condition and maiden races. Stuck at 5 2-year-old wins and 31 maiden wins.
*Unhappy with the lack of filler races for the horses I have but that's racing. Mixer races continue to have the lightest fields.
*Will be able to start giving yearlings workouts this week, which is always interesting.
*Longer races for 2-year-olds should be starting soon, may be able to get some of the milers going.
*Still have 49 TB's to breed

Country Cruise - 2-year-old colt - Homebred, first start, galloped HTT and didn't have very good works so I'm running him in a 95K stakes, five horse field. 5 42
Cry Silently - 3-year-old filly - Steward-bred that has yet to hit the board in four starts. I'm hoping she will get better as she ages and can run in longer races. Tonight it's a 12K msw, seven horse field. 1 65
Discordant - 4-year-old filly - Second start for me, one of the AJ $10 horses, I like her breeding. Tried stretching her out last time, that didn't work, so putting her back in sprints to night. 24K msw with a full field. 4 44
Eat and Run - 3-year-old gelding - Homebred that's been knocking on the door of breaking his maiden. I have him in a 15K maden claimer that I sponsored, five horse field and a 10K purse. At least one other should make this tough. 1 61
Euridice - 4-year-old filly - Usually a filler and tonight is no different. She's running in a 25K NW4 that I sponsored for her stablemate Night Race and one other horse showed up. 3 50
Expedite - 5-year-old gelding - Steward-bred that is getting up there in years for a sprinter. Trying him on AW for the first time, I thought maybe a softer surface would help him. 12K starter allowance with a full field. 12 1
Fancy Dreamer - 2-year-old filly - Homebred from one of my CAM's. She should probably like longer but also didn't have the best of works. So running her in this 12K NW2, three horse field, the other two are both winners. 3 43
Fifty Stars - 5-year-old mare - First start for me, I just bought her at auction because I like her dam side. She has two wins out of nine starts, hasn't hit the board in any of her other starts. Thought I would give her a couple tries at a different distance and maybe a try at AW before retiring her. So I sponsored a 25K NW3 for her, four horse field. I would like to improve her earnings, if she is willing. 1 62
Grateful Heart - 3-year-old filly - Steward-bred, she's running in a 40K listed stakes which has come up surprisingly competitive considering it's smallish purse. Seven horse field and one verified monster. Hoping she can be up there at the end.
5 52
Guns and Daggers - 4-year-old filly - Hoping she'll take to the AW at a better distance for her, she had a really good work on it. I like her dam side, would like to use her as a broodmare next year. She's in a 15K NW2, six horse field. 3 51
Holy Gabriel - 4-year-old gelding - Second start for me, won first time out but that was a maiden race. Trying him on AW for the first time in a 15K NW2, ten horse field. 8 30
Inspired View - 3-year-old filly - Another $10 AJ horse starting for the second time for me, she came in third last time in a maiden race. I'm using her tonight in a 125K Grade 2 stakes, five horse field. 4 50
Lighter Than Air - 3-year-old filly - Homebred that has actually done better than I had thought she would. Though she has never won a stakes she has been stakes placed three times in seven starts. I think I should have looked for a 3 yo race for her instead of this 10K NW2 with a full field with quite a few older. I guess I may as well see if she can hold her own. 6 52
Living a Lie - 6-year-old gelding - Steward-bred. First start for me, he's another $10 AJ horse, thought he might be a chaser but he failed that. I wanted to give him at least one chance in a race. 15K NW2, eight horse field. 5 38
Loquacious Lark - 5-year-old horse - Second start for me, yet another $10 AJ horse, won first time out for me with a 68 SF. I sponsored a race for him to see if it was a fluke or not, 25K NW3, six horse field. 5 43

Monster Heat - 4-year-old filly - Has three OTB finishes in seven starts, running in a 20K allowance, six horse field. Hope she can at least be in top five. 4 46
Mourning N Knight - 4-year-old gelding - Just bought him for a $1 as I need some 4-year-old geldings that are maidens. He was supposed to be a filler in this 15K msw, but a sixth horse showed up. I assume he'll be last as this is not a surface he should like. 6 4
Moving Pictures - 3-yer-old colt - Homebred, still needs to break his maiden. Running in a 20K allowance, eight horse field. I think it was a light field when I first entered him, otherwise I have no idea why I put him in here. 8 32
Night Race - 4-year-old filly - I sponsored this 25K NW4 for her, three horse field including stablemate Euridice. The other horse that showed up will make this a competitive race. 1 63
Nitric - 2-year-old colt - Homebred, second start, came in fourth first time out. Galloped with wings. had okay works. Tonight he's in a 15K msw, eleven horse field.
5 51

Shaedra - 4 - year -old gelding - Running in a 20K allowance, five horse field that looks to be really challenging. 3 56
Vertical - 2-year-old colt - Homebred, second start, came in 2nd first time out in a listed stakes. Galloped with wings and has good works. Tonight he's in a 12.5K msw, eight horse field with a few first time starters. 3 58

Binary Star - 2-year-old filly - First start for this homebred, will probably prefer a little longer but thought I'd give her a try in this 6.5F allowance with a small field of four first time starters and a 15K purse. 4 33
Can't Stop the Sun - 3-year-old filly - Homebred, went to dirt after racing on AW for her first four starts. Did pretty well so trying her on dirt again in a 20K msw with a ten horse field. 7 39

Monday Year 27 Week 4
43 running tonight, a mixed bag. I expect to still be getting some up and down results.
Acamas - 6-yeaqr-old chase gelding - Not very good on the flats, not very good over the jumps. Running in a 10K NW2, eleven horse field. 11 37
Arctic Heat - 3-year-old dirt mile colt - Homebred out of a CAM, galloped with wings, had good works - very disappointing so far. There's a chance he will get better as he gets older, right now he just makes me sad. Tonight he's in a 15K NW2, eleven horse field. 6 50
Autochthoe - 4-year-old turf sprint filly - Still trying to break her maiden, she's come close a few times. Running in a 10K msw, seven horse field. Looks like she might have a shot here. 4 48
Barefoot Dancer - 3-year-old AW filly - Every other race I swear I'm going to dump her but she's still with me. She's been okay as a filler, but I always think she would do better for someone else. Tonight she's running in a sponsored 22.5K maiden claimer, five horse field, 10K purse. 3 49
Best Be There - 3-year-old dirt sprint colt - Homebred, galloped with wings, he either wins or finishes off the board, though he still collects a check, so far. Has two wins in six starts, four fourth place finishes. Tonight he's in a 15K NW3, nine horse competitive field. 3 57
Brighter - 3-year-old dirt mile filly - She's a pretty reliable filler so far, probably a good lower level allowance horse. I like her better as a good filler, though. Tonight she's running in a 50K listed stakes, five horse field. She might have a shot at hitting the board here. 4 50
Broado - 5-year-old AW mile mare - I would retire her to the shed but she just started running on AW at the end of last year and she improved on it. I was running her in routes but I'm trying her at a mile as she just doesn't quite get there even in the shorter routes. Running in a 12K NW3, nine horse field. 3 50
Captured By Style - 4-year-old dirt filly - Really a not very good filler, trying her in a race with a fuller field. Her dam side is decent. Not expecting much. 15K msw, seven horse field. 4 43
Chickesaw - 4-year-old AW route filly - Seems to be doing better on the AW. Sponsored this restricted 25K NW3 for her, three others showed up. She'll be going to the breeding shed at the end of the year so trying to get her earnings up a bit more. Just noticing that this is the third race I have sponsored for this horse. I think I may give her one more spin on the dirt at a longer distance, since she has only run short routes on dirt and she seems to prefer longer distances. Best SF is 64 (dirt). 1 61

Arctic Heat - 3-year-old dirt mile colt - Homebred out of a CAM, galloped with wings, had good works - very disappointing so far. There's a chance he will get better as he gets older, right now he just makes me sad. Tonight he's in a 15K NW2, eleven horse field. 6 50
Autochthoe - 4-year-old turf sprint filly - Still trying to break her maiden, she's come close a few times. Running in a 10K msw, seven horse field. Looks like she might have a shot here. 4 48

Broado - 5-year-old AW mile mare - I would retire her to the shed but she just started running on AW at the end of last year and she improved on it.

Chickesaw - 4-year-old AW route filly - Seems to be doing better on the AW. Sponsored this restricted 25K NW3 for her, three others showed up. She'll be going to the breeding shed at the end of the year so trying to get her earnings up a bit more. Just noticing that this is the third race I have sponsored for this horse. I think I may give her one more spin on the dirt at a longer distance, since she has only run short routes on dirt and she seems to prefer longer distances. Best SF is 64 (dirt). 1 61

Friday Year 27 Week 3
26 running tonight and to be honest, I'm not even sure who is racing! I didn't have a lot of time to enter horses for tonights races and pretty much haphazardly threw horses in where I could. May be an interesting night...
Abacus - 4-year-old dirt gelding - Homebred, usually a filler, ended up in a six horse race because I didn't have time last night to double check entries. He needs the race anyway. 25K allowance, six horses, including stablemate Gremlin. Best SF is 54.

He's done well for me on the flats though with five wins and four seconds in twelve starts.

Tuesday Week 3
Friday and Monday were probably my worse racing nights this year and my stats took a pretty big hit. I think this is mainly due to the fact that there has been less need to fill races and most of the horses I'm running just can't cut it in open company. So I've needed to do some culling, quite a few have been the $10 AJ sale horses. Others are just no longer very useful for filling. The ones that should be good allowance horses that have wins and placings I have put up for sale on the New Player sales page for $1. Most of those were purchased. Ones that I'm not sure of I sent to GP to let the computer decide if they should go up for sale or not.
With that said I'm still sitting at 583 horses.
Not too much good to come out of last nights races, two of my three wins came in races that I sponsored myself and the speed figures weren't all that great. They were only maiden claiming races anyway. I'm not too fond of sponsoring claiming or maiden races but maiden claimers I like a lot more, not really sure why.
Onto Wednesday where there are usually more races to fill than with the TB's.

Monday Year 27 Week 3
30 running tonight as I continue to try to figure out which horses I want to keep and who is really beyond hope for me or just don't fit into my stable. One of the problems is I continue to buy horses even while culling. Argh!

Ain't Lost - 3-year-old AW sprint filly - First start for me, picked her up for 1K, hasn't really done well so far in her career on dirt. Thought I'd give her a try on AW. Her grand dam looks nice. Coming off of a maiden win last out, running in a 12K NW2, seven horse field. I can always switch her back to dirt if she hates the AW. Best SF is 63 (dirt). 6 37
Blue Water - 5-year-old dirt route mare - First start for me, second start overall. First out she ran in a sprint on turf. $10 AJ purchase.

Epic Farewell - 5-year-old dirt route gelding - Steward-bred, though he's never won a stakes he's been graded stakes placed a few times. Tonight he's running in a 10K allowance, ten horse field. There's a lot of good horses in here, despite the fact that it's only an allowance. Best SF is 71. 4 61
Golden Warrior - 4-year-old dirt route filly - Seems to be improving as she matures. Bought her as a yearling for 50K and has made her money back and than some. Broke her maiden at the end of last year, came in second her first race of this year. Tonight it's a 12K NW2, ten horse field over a sloppy track which she should like.
