Sumwonlovesyou breezes!
18 months after last appearing in a recorded racetrack performance, Sumwonlovesyou today officially returned with a 3f breeze at Trackside.
Slated to go a quarter mile between the three-eighths and eighth poles, our 5 year old Came Home mare was clocked at :25.0 for the quarter and :38.3 to the wire on the gallop out. The splits were 13.0,: 12.0 and :13.3, and Chuck promptly declared that it couldn't have been drawn up any better. The drill came without urging, as Cherie never asked the stable standardbearer for run. Cherie said that SWLY tired predictably at the end and was a bit clunky in her mechanics, but felt strong and eager under her. It has been an arduous year and a half since Sumwon's last race the day after Travers 2007. Starting with a muscle tear early in 2008 and a subsequent bout with a hoof infection that flirted with laminitis, having Dee Tee's first runner reach the worktab again represents the welcome next step in having her back. With no residual fitness to rely on, she has a long way to go to get race ready, but she was in no hurry to drink any water after the work, which is a good sign that she is already gained some condition. Without hyperbole, it's easy to say that this was as special a 3f workout as those connected with a horse will get to see. Ashley has pictures that she will hopefully put up later today.

Didn't think it was possible. Feel better for her than us.

How perfect. She must be one tired mare today, having to work again. I really look forward to seeing her back on the track again.

Very nice work for her. While as Steve said there is still a long way to go this moves her into the actual full training phase which is a big step.
