10/5 (KEE): Spinster (Gr. I); Bourbon S. (Gr. III)

[Pedigree Ann]

Carriage Trail drifted out all during the last furlong to finish closer to the outer rail than the inner. Didn't slow her down at all. Had her in the Kee online contest, thank goodness. Was beaten by a nose and a head for the wins in the two turf contests in the contest, the 7th and the 10th. Bummer.

going with rosinka in the spinster.

He is fine and came back with a lot of energy. It was an incredible day all around even with the tough finish and some posturing by Douglas as he tried to get off Albin to get on Bittel Road. Can't say I blame him for asking, but maybe he could have gone a little less wide on both turns and not basically pulled him up in front of the grandstand? Oh well...

Keeneland treated us all wonderfully and I think we stuffed down enough comped food (chickens everywhere should be scared of Chuck and Satan's Twin) and drinks amongst our group to recoup some of the entry fee. It is a great facility with great people and it was an honor to run last in a stakes race there..lol.

glad to hear that all is well with the horse, as well as with everyone's appetite! sounds like you guys had a far more interesting day than i did. i kept tvg on most of the day (except of course during the 'skins game) and kept wondering when mr b. was going to pick anyone other than the heavy favorite...
