PP's are up at DRF..

You're very welcome! I remember her first race because, of course, I was pretty psyched about it. I thought maybe she was going to be a plodder after that, but of course, Mott does not rush his horses and Orate is not bred to sprint. Seems he must have had turf in mind all along or she would have been given another chance on the main track. I was actually wondering today where she was, so this was a great thread for me to pop into....Love her full brother, who is a good grass sire, so I'm not surprised she took to turf. I'm crossing my fingers that she stays healthy!

Looking at it quickly look she's got in drawn into the
tougher of the two divisions. The horse just inside
her is also a Came Home filly

far from an easy spot

You never know if you don't try. Stranger things have happen

Breaking your maiden at Mountaineer/running second for open 20K at TP then on to a AX1 at Keeneland. Like I said an aggressive spot. It will be a tough race but its true anything can happen once the gates open. Came Home's do seem to like a little route as they mature. The Gone West line seems to enjoy the synthetic surface also.

Not too many spots for a horse like ours City. But we aren't undefeated and if she can be competitive with these we will be in good shape.

oh..ouch..just looked at pps..we should be a sturdy 28-1 after the whole stable dumps on her.......gottum right where we want um..:D

thanks, chuck and steve for ALL the HARD work!!!
GOOD LUCK Sumwon !
hope you can hear us cheer from las vegas !

i think her beyer will shake out at a 75..with a good ride we will get a check...

CannonShell, I wish you good luck. I didnt mean to offend at all I hope you didnt take it that way. I truly understand the difficulity in finding races. I have had a tough time with any route filly I have ever owned. They just dont seem to write many races in the 20-30K claim range goin long.

good luck!

and stay warm...

I did not see a work published for today. Looks like a pretty nice field. And SWLY will probably get the lead whether she wants it or not... good luck to us, and thanks Chuck for all the work getting the filly to this point. Looking forward to coming home and watching the race on Wednesday.

I agree with Hooves...but I'll take 28-1 in the tri or super.

Chuck has a pretty nice obscure trainer angle: 2nd Route Race (29 10% +2.65).... but perhaps more impressive, 20% off the 31-90 days layoff....3rd highest behind Pletcher and Proctor.

Let's hope it comes through and that Brisnet Prime Power Rating is turned upside down on its head for this race. :)

Hey these young'ens get better in no time at all. She's gotten bigger and she's had a little time between races to fill out. I hope she comes back sound and go from there. Like they say being the underdog they never see you coming. Keeneland Turf favors her style and although she's in with some tough ones I like her chances to hit the board.

A sturdy 28-1... IF we bet her. Lol.

We got a spot. We got an animal. Lets hope she behaves. My wife has looked at all the pictures and likes the animal but she says she sees lots of will. As in the will to do what she wants. Should be interesting.

here you go::
( hope this is allowed )

LOL - hey, as long as Mike Battaglia (bless his heart) doesn't think we have a chance, we have a chance ....

Never bet on a horse being asked to do something different - let alone doing two somethings different - for the very first time.

Unless you're one of her excited owners :D

i really really really hope she wins for you guys, but dam she's up against it

I hear trainer-speak (also known as "reality" :)

Didn't you pick her out as you thought there could be upside? This is probably not her spot, but as you've told us, the only way to find out where she belongs is to run her.

I think we'll all be thrilled if she shows the improvement she's promised in her training, because then you can spot her where you'd really like her to be :)

Best of luck to the connections. I'm routing for ya all. :)
