BLUE ME AWAY WORKS FOR THE BREEDER'S CUP JUVENILE TURF
Blue's stride was energetic, and Blaze could feel the power in him just waiting to burst out, like a volcanic eruption just waiting to happen. This morning's workout was bittersweet. Sweet because he was he was getting to ride this magnificent animal in the Breeder's Cup, bitter because the colt would be returned to Silver Stride Stables after the race. Blaze hoped with all his heart that he could continue riding the thoroughbred, but he knew it was unlikely. Someone else had ridden Blue to six of his seven wins, and that someone deserved to ride the colt again. Besides, Blaze definitely didn't want to give up his job here.
The cameras were flashing, and Blaze imagined how wonderful they must look. Blue's black coat gleamed in the morning sunlight as he took powerful strides over the turf.
