Default You know who aimed for toga

Since I've been designated the official green monkey cheerleader here, I thought I'd post this and share the warm cuddly feeling this gives me!



On Sunday, The Green Monkey, the $16 million 2-year-old-in-training purchase who has yet to make it to the races, breezed four furlongs in 49.59 seconds. It was his second breeze since returning to Pletcher's barn this spring. He had been sidelined since last fall after suffering a pulled gluteal muscle.

Pletcher said he has been pleased with what he's seen thus far from The Green Monkey, who last year breezed nine times from May 14 to Aug. 2.

"Much more forward and aggressive than he was last year," Pletcher said. "Seems more enthusiastic and eager to work."

Pletcher said that if all continues to go well, The Green Monkey could debut at Saratoga.
