Workout for CAULFIELD CUP*
The mare was four years old and this season her record is amazing, with nine wins, six seconds and three thirds. With just one bad performance in the star festival it didn't really matter. The mare is expected to have at least a bad day once in while, it happens. As the horse and rider working together, as their were one it was magic. Chocolate loved and trusted Skye with her life, when you met this mare a year ago, you wouldn't believe it was the same horse.
Now the cream beast machine was breezing on the turf, allowing herself to get settled. The workout wasn't going to be hard, it was simple a freshen up exercise kind of thing, to get the monster settled, fit and ready for the Caulfield Cup. So far there was one running along with her, hopefully there would be other runners, to gave the cream mare a challenge for the first place.
Breezing more with another horse of ours, a future champion, a chestnut colt which was named Special Edition, he have been given third place for the GHF Leader board and he was the winner in the colt sector. They were side by side, and as the turn came the mock race was on between them, for the final two furlongs.
As Skye gave the signal with the reins, Chocolate responded and increase her speed like magic, for the two furlongs more to go on the track, the mare took the lead from the chestnut colt, and held onto it strong. Skye wanted to push a little more from her, without hesitation the mare increase more, spreading her limbs as far as they could go. This speed stayed for five minuted, Chocolate would have gone more if she allowed. But since it was just a breeze workout for preparation for the race, she pulled her up and cooled the sweaty mare off for a few before aheading back to the yard.
