Today the stable had a great day, winning 3 out of the 5 starts. All three wins were at Hoosier Park. All three winners are home breds and raised on our farm.

U HUSH was the first winner of the day paying $11.40, $4.80, $3.20. This is one great gelding with loads of personality!. The girls have always wanted to keep him home on the farm and make him into a trail riding fellow.

The second winner of the day was ON Z RUN ($16.80, $5.80, $4.00) for owners/breeders Penny Lauer and Jerry Merritt. This was her third win this year, earning over $108,000. She is out of the mare MY LITTLE RUNAWAY who also had a two year old winner today for the same owners/breeders. SNEAKIN AWAY was the third win of the day paying $3.00, $2.40, $2.20.

I went to Keeneland to saddle the one horse that was running there, while I left the Hoosier horses in the hands of my assistant. Before I left the house I called Keeneland just to check on the simulcasting of Hoosier Park and today they told me they do not carry Hoosier. They take Hoosier every other day, but not today. This really aggravates me. I do not understand why they shut out simulcasting for one day of the week when they take it every other day they run. Had I known this earlier in the day, I would have had another assistant saddle at Keeneland and I would have been at Hoosier myself. Instead I had to settle for watching them on the computer and then dash out to Keeneland.

We are at 52 wins for the year.
