Shugs still a master isn't he? Shes gonna go in the Gazelle and try and beat Bushfire to get a shot for divisonal champ. After that I think he may train her up to the Cup. I cant see him going on three weeks rest and then firing back in another prep and then the BC. Just too much. I think the plan is to go in the Gazelle and train up to the Cup.

i don't know that i'd get in a two page argument over just a feeling, but that's just me.


i can't believe everyone is getting on pine island! lol no doubt shugs sleeper success last year has something to do with it. her second-itis no doubt is from going against the top of the crop so quickly, third time was her charm.

ought to be plenty of pace for her to run at late.

i was on her for her stakes debut, and have enjoyed watching her progress. she's a legit threat for nov 4.

Thanks......

I think Fleet Indian will lose if she runs in the Distaff. Round Pond will not be the winner, however. I am a Happy Ticket fan, so I hope she can win.

just read the write up in the newest bhorse (i love the mail on fridays!) and duh me! didn't realize til today that the guy who bought fleet indian in january is none other than Saylor, who owned ashado.

they plan for her to go next in the beldame.
