Poor weather has forced NYRA to cancel today's card at Aqueduct meaning Lloyddobler wont be breaking his maiden today. This Winters weather has been particularly nasty and even with the warmer temperatures that March has brought us, there are lingering issues both up North and down South. I am not sure what the immediate options are with Lloyd but hopefully we can get back into a similar race soon.
Missus Mayflower has had some issues with her shins crop up this week which may cause us to miss the Tampa meet and point towards Philadelphia and the mid-Atlantic area this Spring. After a few more days of therapy we will make a decision on how aggressively we are going to treat the shins.
Redboard King has trained really well and seems to have turned the corner towards becoming a racehorse. He is going to work on Monday, going 5 furlongs on the dirt. We are looking at an early April start either at Tampa on the turf or Philadelphia on the dirt. Options for him later this Spring and moving into Summer include Indiana Downs, Churchill Downs, Arlington Park, Delaware or maybe even the much hyped Monmouth uber purse meet.
Kickin n Screamin is going to work tomorrow or Monday depending on the condition of the track and be entered for $5000 nw1 in 6 months race next Sunday at Philadelphia Park.
