Default Mercury Rising

Aldebutante's frequent workmate (whipping boy? ), Mercury Rising, is entered on Sunday at Finger Lakes, race 7. He is a half to NYB stakes winner and Woodward participant Dr. DFC. Chuck and I bought him at the NYB Saratoga Yearling sale last year, wish us luck!

LOL... I give ubrillo credit for taking a shot, he runs his best and the race falls apart behind curlin he could finish 3rd, which would be as good as winning a nyb overnight

Default Good Luck

Best of Luck Phil and Chuck and Team Simon.
Phil:
I believe I saw Mercury Rising being broken down in Texas in March and again at Churchill Downs training center in May. I know Scott down in Texas thought that your Phone Trick colt would be okay.... Best of luck in his debut.
