Just a workout update on Vekoma.

Feb 10 - 5f: 1:02.47 (3/3)
Feb 16 - 5f: 1:00.73 (3/6)

Encouraging to see from him. Hopefully he’s gearing up for the Fountain of Youth.

Agreed. Looks like they eased him back and are now putting him to work. Can’t wait to see when he runs.

I haven’t heard anything like that. He just put in another nice workout earlier today.
