UPDATES! 2yo's developing well..

[Kasept]

Just off the phone with Woody Payne at the Ingleside Training in Virginia, and the reports on the 2 year olds are generally excellent.

MY PAL OF PALS (City Zip) & TOY CANNON (Thunder Gulch) continue to be the most forward of the 4 New York bred colts, with all physical development progressing without a hitch, and both virtually in full training mode. Woody says the pair look like adults compared to most of the other juvies around the farm, and they will almost certainly be the first to come north to Belmont to begin racetrack careers.

SPONDULIX (Rockport Harbor) is next in terms of maturation, and is paused from full training for a couple of weeks having just undergone a growth spurt. Woody, who has a 3yo Rockport Harbor with Ferris Allen at Laurel, says our Rocky reminds him of that one a great deal, (recently 2nd in his debut), and expects him to fill out nicely with one more period of physical development yet to come.

CORYBANT (Johannesburg) is the least developed of the group, maturing slowly and trailing the others in training. He will be 'late' as they say...

We should have new photos of the boys in the next couple of weeks, and anyone planning to be through Virginia (Montpelier Station) should try andvisit the famed plantation. ("James Madison's Montpelier")

And of course anyone interested in taking part in the 2011 Dee Tee colts should drop me an Email at tpkasept@yahoo.com for more information!
