Our trainer has decided not to enter Sassy in the Stormy Blues Stakes. We’re disappointed of course, but it is in her best interests to get a race in before running against such stiff competition. So now she’ll have an extra week’s work in her and she’ll run […]
The nominations and past performances for the Stormy Blues Stakes race are up on the Pimlico website. There are 22 horses nominated. This race gives preference to horses with the highest earnings on the turf in 2013 and 2014, and we are fifth in turf earnings, so we […]
Sassy is ready for her first race of the season! We have nominated her for the Stormy Blues Stakes, which is a $100,000 race for 3 year old fillies, on the turf, going 5 Furlongs. Sassy had a work from the gate today as her prep for the […]
Sassy is now off her winter’s break and she’s back in training! She returned to Fair Hill in early February and she’s been legging up in preparation for the upcoming turf season. Her training started with what they call “shedrowing”, which is where they ride the horse at […]
Sassy won her first race yesterday! She ran a perfect race and we all couldn’t be happier. Here’s a recap of the day from my point of view: The horses started walking over from the backside, and Sassy wasn’t the first this time. Last race she was the […]
Sassy got in the race! For her 4th race she’ll be running in a Maiden Special Weight on the turf at 5.5 furlongs. There were 17 entries, but only 11 horses will run, so again she’ll be in a large field. Sassy has the 6 hole, which is […]
We visited Sassy today (Saturday) and she is looking good. It has been pouring rain recently, but lucky us, there was a break in the weather for her morning gallop. The Tapeta (all weather) track was full of horses, but she was easy to spot because her rider […]
Sassy ran a great race on Friday October 4th and came in a strong second. Overall it was a fabulous race! The assistant trainer who ran her got her to the paddock first. She had a few minutes there by herself to take things in. They saddled her […]
Tomorrow Sassy will be running her third race. This will be her first time on the grass and we’re hopeful that she shows some of the speed we know she is capable of. She is the #2 horse in a 10 horse field. She’ll have to stand longer […]
Sorry for lack of posts on Sassy, things have been really busy. Sassy had some improvements in her second race which was on Sept 7th, but still a disappointing finish at 10th place. She was in the 11th hole, just next to one of her stable mates who […]
