Kickin N Screamin back to work

Kickin n Screamin worked an easy half mile yesterday at AP in 53.60. In her first work since her paddock mishap, she broke off in a gallop and finished up down the lane galloping out in 106. We weren't looking for much more than that as we want to keep her fresh and were just knocking the edge off of her. The next possibilities for races are the 24th of July at AP going 1 mile for 18000 or July 26th at AP going 1 1/16th in 25000 claiming company. Jose Velez will ride her in either spot. Though I would prefer to keep her on the polytrack I will run in any race where she fits and has a chance in.

Aldebutante and Rampillion are going to work on Monday morning, weather permitting. Aldebutante is scheduled to work from the gate but Rampillion is not quite ready for that step. Realistically I would think that Rampillion may be ready to run at the end of the Ellis Park meet or more likely at Turfway Park in September. There is also the possibility of her making a start at Kentucky Downs, running up and down the hills.

Sumwonlovesyou will move Wednesday to Bluegrass Equine Center. I saw her on Wednesday and she looks great.

There's always Presque Isle Downs, I talked to Jim Cornes; assistant stakes coordinator there last weekend, he said give him a call and he would write a good spot for her to run.
