Tuning Up at the Farm

As you've heard us mention before, the particular challenge with racing from the farm this time of year is it really is not feasible to get breezes in at Calder. And the convenient and available track at OBS is synthetic, and not like the heavy stuff in Miami. At this point in TS Fay's training, she needs full out, lung expanding breezes, that challenge her and stress her so that she comes back stronger and "racier" (remember that tight abs look we talked about wanting in her last race?). We can't do that in the grove, so, we end up using races as breezes with light conditioning between. It does not do much for our numbers, but it works. Fingers crossed that we will see some improvement form Fay in her next outing.
And Irish Eagle is looking healthy now. We'll be entering him soon...
