Jess’s Dream sidelined for year
By David Grening
ELMONT, N.Y. – Jess’s Dream, the first foal out of Rachel Alexandra who was dynamic in rallying from far back to win his debut at Saratoga, is sidelined for the remainder of the year, trainer Kiaran McLaughlin said.
McLaughlin said Jess’s Dream developed a problem in his right hind leg and is nearly halfway through a 60-day break at Stonestreet Farm in Lexington, Ky. McLaughlin said that in 30 days, Jess’s Dream will move to Stonestreet’s farm in Ocala, Fla., where he will stay for an undetermined period of time before moving back to McLaughlin at Palm Meadows in Florida.
Jess’s Dream, by Curlin, rallied from at least 18 lengths out of it to win his debut going 1 1/8 miles at Saratoga on Aug. 24. He earned a 90 Beyer Speed Figure.
