We broke our first 2 yr. old maiden for 2014 with LIMEDABOSS, a filly that we bred and have taken on some partners with. It is her second time out and she won by 3 lengths. This put us over $400,000 for the year which is less than we want, but at least we are warming things up.

We ran our second horse at Saratoga today, finished 4th and she was claimed. We had claimed her for owner Barry Ostrager the last day of Churchill for $20,000, then ran back here for $25,000 where there was a nine way shake for the claim.

Something you want to remember about claiming in Indiana is after the claim there is no rise of 25% as there is at other tracks. You can also take your claimed horse and run where ever you like. Claim today and run tomorrow at Saratoga if you choose.

In September Kentucky Downs runs a six day meet (all grass) where maidens run for $90,000 and Allowance races start at $100,000. So, good time to claim one and get in the business.
