UPDATES! 2yo's developing well..
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!

I'd encourage those interested in the 2yo's to make their move sooner than later...

Seeking Info
Steve,
Any news on the 2YO? I'm thinking forward to the next few months and hope that a trip to NY is in the mix to see Toy Cannon's maiden run. Are things progressing? I'm a newbie, so not sure of timing but I thought that these guys would start to see some race action this summer. Am I right about that - if so, tell us what you know. Thanks.

Hello everyone,
I am a new Dee Tee'er. I will be in northern VA next weekend (Memorial Weekend) and am planning on going by Montpelier to see the new two year olds. I will take pictures and post them. Hopefully, I can see them training in some capacity. Really excited to be part of Dee Tee!!!

Well, we visited the two years olds!!! We had a great morning, Woody and the people at Ingleside could not have been more welcoming. I highly encourage everyone to go visit!!! I put up some pics of all of the two year olds on the Facebook page. I even got to watch Toy Cannon and My Pal Of Pals gallop, they look good!!!
He told us a lot about each one of the boys, too much to get into one post. If anyone has any questions, feel free to ask.

Big Blue-Woody said that My Pal of Pals is almost race-ready. Toy Cannon, he said, should be ready to go by fall. Spondulix and Corybant are going to be a minute, still growing.

Puddle Jumper- I will tell you that Spondulix is FULL of personality. He was the first one of all the boys that we saw. The others are in the back row of stalls, so when we walked in, he was right there. He's a little thing, but Woody says that he still has a lot of maturing to do. He's also a cribber (not that it has any relevance, just an observation!!). We didn't get to see him train, just messed with him at the stall. He's very personable, but full of the devil at the same time!!! After the other two got done training, Woody had the groom bring he and Corybant out just so we could get the pictures. Again, can't say enough about how great Woody and his people were.
