Y13 November Week 4

<sub>ACCELERATION STAKES*
WIN Canjun Moon
PLACE Lynara's Kingdom
SHOW Sweetness Unlimited

Okay. So here's how it all went down. ha. Lynara was the heavy favorite and with no front runner, she took the charge. Sweetness Unlimited was hot on her heels the entire race and Frenchie ran solidly in the back unchallenged. Nothing changed for the duration of the race, each horse waiting for that final challenge and when it came, BOY did sparks fly. Lynara charged for the finish, running strong, but she was a might overconfident and when Frenchie came roaring up it was just too late to catch the colt who had been denied win after win this season. Lynara woke up enough though to hold off Sweetness Unlimited. Congrats, you all have great horses.

Comments: Sorry Frost I didn't wait for the workout. To be honest I didn't even really glance at the workouts, but went more so off of leg types and need for the win.</sub>

Thank you so much Cavvy for that win. I'm very pleased even though I'm relatively shocked at the result

Kenny: That's the first time I've placed a two year old for the win all season. I'm pretty picky about two year olds and I'm easily the most consistent person when it comes to this rule. Restricted Access had an amazing workout with elders and she's been sitting on a victory like this since she returned. And while Gallant Knight is older and more experienced, I feel that Restricted Access has run against the similar level of competition that Gallant Knight has been facing and done just as well as shone by her consistently in the money record. Cav has done three workouts with the filly since her return and all were extensive and pushed her above Gallant Knight. With no true leader, Gallant Knight and Restricted Access basically took it down to the wire where Restricted Access notched the win by a head.

Normally Lynara would have been the dead give away winner because of her grade and number of starts, but for some reason I just saw her underestimating the field and Canjun took complete advantage of those few precious moments to steal a win from the heavy favorite.

_{To be 100% honest, I wasn't paying attention and I thought Megs judged that, not you Ripley xD My bad. No yeah, that's fine. It was thinking that Megs judged them both that I made the comment at all. Like I said, I'm pretty indifferent to the result xD}

VELOCITY STAKES
WIN Axis Mundae & Feline Frenzy
PLACE Sugar Jayde

I shuffled the placings about 10 times before I actually decided - but the reason I dead heated was because I just couldn't separate. It about killed me just thinking about it.

All great horses guys... Ripley please don't retire Fee.  She's amazing and will do even better next year now that she's proved herself under Witch Creek's name - congratulations on Grade One.

<sub>Palm Tree Paradise Invitational
1 - Euphoria's Warrior
2 - Paradise Island & Sweet Inferno
3 - Red Herring
4 - Fire Dancer

Sweet Inferno was uncontested for the lead, and took her place easily up front. However, she had a harrying duo on her tail. However, she'd been passed up by both of these horses before after falling for their tricks, and she's learning. She didn't respond to Red Herring and Paradise Island pressing her as much as she has in the past, and was more prepared for the stretch. However, there were still two horses toward the back looking for a fight as well. Euphoria's Warrior had an easy ride from the back during the race, though the same couldn't be said for Fire Dancer - she stumbled coming out of the gate, and had to exert more effort than normal to get back to the pack, and she was settled near Euphoria's Warrior instead of pushing ahead to her normal position, which would have taken even more out of her. When Euphoria's Warrior made his move, Fire Dancer went as well, but just wasn't comfortable and didn't have as much left in the tank as normal, so she just wasn't able to catch the group. Euphoria's Warrior, however, had a clear path four-lanes out and took advantage of it as the wire neared. With that closer flair, he was perfectly timed to get a nose in front. Paradise Island was able to draw next to a wildly fighting Sweet Inferno, and the two went under together, Red Herring just behind. Fire Dancer crossed about a length back.

I think Euphoria's Warrior was just too strong this time out. The next three could have gone in practically any order, so leg type had a lot to do with it. Absolutely nothing wrong with Fire Dancer, I just didn't see her with the top horses this time around. Great job, everyone!</sub>

Well I am very happy with Sweetie! Fire really hates the GHF track xD

Megsy could you please give me ANY feedback for Infinite Warcry? I have seriously worked SO MUCH with him and it NEVER comes through. Eight solid workouts this year and he just doesn't win for me. I want to get him in a winning mood in time for the BC xD

Yayy so happy with my boys!! <3 Thanks for judging everyone
