Hope everyone had a nice holiday weekend. The weather couldn’t have been better here in Louisville. Churchill’s meet ended last week. The stable won a race over the last weekend with the filly JANE’S HEIR who won two at the meet. She was claimed at Keeneland in April 2014 for $16,000 and she won for claiming $25,000 and then came back and won a starter allowance for new client Alharbi Stable. They were quite thrilled and treated the whole barn to carrots and apples!

Opening weekend at Ellis Park we won a race with KERISMA for Joseph Fowler and Penny Lauer owners.  This summer we will be mostly running at Indiana Grand or Ellis Park and might run a few at the old River Downs Track that has been renamed Belterra Racing and Casino. I am sure we will venture out somewhere else, just not sure where yet. Churchill Downs will be back with a September meet as well as Kentucky Downs who will run their five days on the European Grass course.

The stable has won over $300,000 so far this year. Not as well as we had hoped at this point. We always do better the second half of the calendar year. We have run only one two year old so far this year and she ran 3rd. I was quite pleased with her performance.

The yearling auctions start next week, and included in that is a Horses of Racing Age sale with approximately 100 entries. It would be a good place to find a ready made to run horse if anyone is interested in expanding your stable. It is also a very good place to buy yearlings to run next year as two year olds, but does require more patience.
