Y15 March Week 3

[Sammy]

She can be run here, I put a request for her to be scratched on the Wire.

[Kenren]

Thunderstorm Stakes
WIN Get Loose
PLACE Master of Tides

[Kenren]

MOTION SPRINT*
WIN Lilith Wind
PLACE Chatoyant
SHOW Siren Call

Very, very close between the top two - however, Lilith Wind struck me as the sort of tenacious horse to get her nose in front in a tight race. Obviously I love Siren Call, but I just didn't see her nabbing one of the top spots today.

Stuckinajam Stakes - G4 8F T
Win: Proteus Prince
Place: Daring Vision

[S u N f r O s t ~]

Red Stakes - 11F D
win A True Hero
place Night Visions

A shut-down last week pushed Hero over the line here. Fierce fierce race. I was staring helplessly at both of them for a while.

Magnificent Stakes - 10F T
win National Treasure
place Stalking The Stars
show Livin' The Jazz
fourth Lost In Memories

National Treasure is a filly people should not forget. I remember what a terror she was last season...going inactive was a tragedy for this ultra talented mare. She was sitting on a win and she took it in style today.

Stalking The Stars - Built up a lot of class from last season and nearly nabbed the win here. I can see her moving up to HOTY races based off of her last season's results, easily. Just needs a win to boost her there.

Livin' The Jazz - Awesome record, but met very determined opposition here today. This third hasn't stopped him any. He's absolutely blooming this season and I expect some HOTY upsets out of him.

Lost In Memories - Absolutely solid horse, but just could not get the job done today against these three. This was how the cards fell today. Keep up your good work and you'll pick up another win in no time!

[S u N f r O s t ~]

London Sprint - 6F D
win Attractive Flight
place Alucard

That ridiculously hard fought win in the Carter Handicap boosted Attractive Flight up a lot...not to mention six furlong success runs in his family. Alucard, need I even say I love him, but Attractive Flight was a handful this time around.

[Cruisey]

Sun Stakes
WIN Ramirez
PLACE Predator
show Van Guard

[Sammy]

Garnet Stakes - G3 10F D
Win: Barely Legal (neck)
Place: Beyond Perfection
Show: Lethal Dose
4th: Dreaming of Glory


Barely Legal: She was sitting on a win today and I see her gaining more wins here quickly. She used all of her will with this race as she was my favorite this race.

Beyond Perfection: This horse is a tough case but I see him finding a win within the next few weeks. He put on a good show and with at most best he is maturing well. Keep him with the distances he will push forward for you.

Lethal Dose & Dreaming of Glory: It was hard placing them here they have such good potential but I felt the top two were very much ready this time out.

FIRST LADY CUP* - G4+ 8F D F 4yos+
Win: Reflected In Water
Place: Sophie's Voice
Show: Mardi Gras

[Deleted]

BLUE GRASS STAKES* - G5+ 3YO 9F D
WIN Casualty Of War
PLACE Speak Easy
SHOW Meritorious
fourth Shenanigans

What a strong field, all of these horses have the potential to go on to do big things which made it very difficult to separate them. The colts outran the fillies, but not by much!

Rising Sun Stakes - G5 12F D 2yo
WIN Uno Momento
PLACE Dark Intentions
SHOW Wyvern
fourth Seems Legit

This field seems to complement each other, and there was a clear structure to the field as they made their way through the main stages of the race - Dark Intentions led with Uno Momento just behind him, a length back to Seems Legit with Wvyern rounding out the group. The pace was a little on the quick side but nothing too furious and things were very tight in the final stretch.

Uno Momento's HoTY experience gave him an edge here, and after the crushing blow in his last start was more than determined.

Seems Legit ran valiantly, but was not up to the level of the other runners.

[Deleted]

Please disqualify Radiation Therapy. He is now owned by me and I wasn't aware he was entered in this race. Apologies!
