The stable has had a good week. We won three, two at Hoosier Park (one was a 2 yr. old maiden) and one at Penn National. If you want to see a great race watch the Penn National race and ride (7th race #6 on 10/18). If it this doesn’t get you pumped you need to check your blood!
Total stable purses have now gone over $1.4 for the year.
Hoosier and Keeneland wrap up next week and then on to Churchill’s meet. Great place to claim.
We ended the month with a bang running two horses in two different states and won both! Our first win was for owner John Stogsdill with ZIPPITY DUBAI at Hoosier Park. The other winner was at Presque Isle in Erie, Pennsylvania with YANBIEN EXPRESS taking her lifetime earnings over $100,000 making it her 4th win in 13 career starts for owners Margaux Farm and Penny Lauer. We broke two maiden two year olds this month as well with JOINT TENANT who is a homebred and THAT’S JUST DANDY for owner John Link.
These last two wins takes the stable over $180,000 for the month and $1,258,000 year to date.
The Keeneland Yearling Sales concluded last week with positive numbers and a lot of buys. There are some other small yearling sales coming up in October as well as Keenelands opening day this Friday, October 5th. Hoosier Park will run until the end of October.
October, over the last couple of years, has been our biggest month as Hoosier Park in Indiana runs a lot of Indiana Bred Yearling Stakes. We hope to continue that force this year!
Always a good time to claim at Keeneland or to buy privately. We are busy breaking yearlings on the farm and are always looking for some partners.
