The next race for Kickin n Screamin looks like June 8th at Philadelphia Park. The race is the same condition as her last race on Tuesday, $5000 nw since Dec 8, 2009. The distance is 1 1/16th and gives her three weeks between starts. She came out of the race is good order and should be ready to go again on the 8th.
Redboard King had a very good work yesterday, going 5 furlongs in 101.22. Entries are drawn on Monday for his race next Friday.
Still no date for Lloydoblers next start as Gary figures out where to go with him . Missus Mayflower will probably have her first work back later in the week.

Kickin tomorrow!
Kickin n Screamin is in tomorrows (May 18th) 4th race at Philadelphia Park. The race came up pretty light save for the number #3 horse, Marcianne, who is the 2/1 morning line favorite. Kickin drew post position number one and Tony Black will be riding her. She is listed at 5/1 on the morning line. There is a strong possibility that the race will be contested over a muddy track as rain is forecast for the Philadelphia area tonight and tomorrow. I don't know if that is a positive or negative since she has limited experience over an of track but I know Kickin n Screamin will give her best as she has in every one of her 25 starts for Dee Tee Stables.
Redboard King came out of his race in great shape and May 28th at Philadelphia Park looks like his next race. That spot is the same maiden claiming $40000 that he just ran 2nd in, going six furlongs.
Lloydobler also came out of his race at Belmont no worse for wear and there are a number of spots that we are considering for him including a possible turf start.
Missus Mayflower has been galloping and isn't far from her first breeze since her shins started bothering her.

Lloyd and Redboard
63 Beyer for Redboard King in his excellent 2nd start. What became apparent to Chuck via Tony Black the last couple of weeks following workouts, was that the kid who rode Redboard in his bow simply stopped riding the gelding early on and just went around with him. This was the kind of performance Chuck expected from Redboard first start, and he continues to improve as he builds strength in his hind quarters. He's going to be a nice horse by the summer, and thanks go out to Tony for suggesting this race. The 3-5 favorite would have had to fall down to lose, but Redboard's effort was very solid as he learns lessons. Grass and 1 mile or more is likely where he'll prove best, so this was a great next step in his career development
74 Beyer for Lloydobler in a run that was actually better than it looks at first glance, as he paired up to his previous best figure which came on the Wood undercard five weeks ago. Having missed a handful of days due to an achy stifle and lousy weather over the last three weeks, Lloydobler tired three-sixteenths from the wire after chasing the first half mile in :23.0 and :46.2. He will likely turn around in 3-4 weeks for a spot that might include a move to grass, and he should be at premium fitness. The problem our Smarty Jones colt faces is that he may being falling into that quirky middle ground between Maiden Special and $50,000-$65,000 Maiden Claiming company. The A.P. Indy-Got Koko son Cocalero who won rather easily, will receive at least a 91 Beyer for his debut. That shows the challenge we face now with the big barns back from Florida, as there may always be a Cocalero, or 2, in every MSW this time of year.
