This is the first good Blame 2 year old that I've seen. The ones at the 2 year old sales were horrible. I must have seen 10-15 of them and I didn't see one good one.

A couple of the new sires' offspring were extremely disappointing. Both Blame and Eskenderaya's 2 year olds worked very poorly. The Super Savers, on the other hand, worked very well.

Warriors Reward with another big winner today! He's got 1 in a stakes at Churchill tomorrow. Warriors Reward and Eskendereya 2 of my all time favorite horses.

Yes, Warrior's Reward is off to a great start. He's been on fire so far. With regard to Eskenderaya, I loved him as a racehorse but I don't like what I've seen at all of him so far as a sire. You get to see a pretty nice sample size at the 2 year old sales and when you see 10-20 horses from a sire and practically none of them look like they can run, it's not a very good sign.

Blame has a 2 year old filly that worked really fast at the Keeneland April Sale and had a pretty nice way of going. I hadn't seen that video until now. She is probably the best one (by Blame) that I've seen. She's running tomorrow (Sunday) at Churchill. I don't know how she will run. Her work was on the synthetic and the race is on the dirt. In addition, she is from a consignor who trains them really hard so I don't know if she's still in one piece.

Raced awfully well after a rough start. The Lukas horse can obviously run as well...his 1st-timers don't usually look like that.
