Stirring up the heat

PASSION HEART Ridden by Terri Lane

The August Juvenile Maiden was coming up and Passion Heart was entered in it. Terri Lane would rest the black filly after this and felt she deserved it after these past few months. It turned out that Lawrence Kaine's 3 year old Ruler's Secret broke his maiden and Terri Lane would get Passion that far hopefully soon. The filly was all fired up and she was a bit moody this morning but, Terri managed to calm her down with a few oats and a some love.

"Come on Passion I know you want to prove to all those other racers that your tough but, how bout we just go out there and just to run for the fun of it." She said rubbing Passion behind her ears cause Terri knew the filly enjoyed being rubbed there from time to time. Angela was going to be here but, she was back at the stables working on paper work to interview new employees for Bowen Acres since they were a tad bit under staffed.

While on the filly's back she walked her out onto the track and she danced onto it like dancing at the ball. Passion was a bit of show off while walking onto the track making sure everyone would notice her was part of her signature way of saying 'look at me!' Terri could only laugh towards the dancing filly. She then urged the thoroughbred to come to a prance until Passion moved at her own pace to move up to a small run and then coming up to the back stretch she came to a full gallop holding her head right and extending her stride with every furlong.

Passion whinnied when slowing down wanting to go further but, was refrained so from Terri to slow her down. "Save that temper Passion it's okay girl." Terri said taking a deep breath knowing the temperament of this filly she had to take risks. Passion Heart was calm near her brother and other horses in the same paddock as hers but, she wasn't much fond of stranger horses and so it was rather difficult for her to enter the gates for that reason.

Terri then walked her off the track to get a bath after to wait for the race day to come. As a two year old filly she will find her path to become a champion. She was a front runner that preferred distances on turf tracks it would be amazing to see her become that next big filly.
