The name of this five year old mare fits my wife perfectly but that’s not the reason she made this listing. Off at 5/1 under leading rider J.J. Hernandez, this mare was in for the 1st allowance condition for fillies and mares 3 and up Saturday at 5/8 on the turf. She was pretty much […]
Three year old filly for Paddy Gallagher added blinkers to her equipment for the 1st time in her five race career and it clearly backfired on Saturday. Off at 7/5 and the second choice in the wagering in this one mile turf event for fillies and mares 3 and up that are still maidens, she […]

Two year old gelding for Todd Fincher made start #3 on Saturday in a maiden special weight at five and a half on the main. Off at 3/1 in a field of six “salty” runners, he challenged for the lead right from the get-go through solid fractions of 22.10 and 45.17 for the half. He […]
Two year old filly for Phil D’Amato made start #2 on Saturday and it was her 1st time on the lawn and 1st time going two turns. This daughter of Collected handled both assignments well as she broke her maiden in style with Hector Berrios in the irons. Breaking from the 9 hole in this […]
