Steeds fail to score

Two of Comedy Central’s entrants in the Breed My Steed ran last week and both failed to score. 

Johnny Bird, trained by Psyduck, made his second start for an improved 60sp, but went from second in debut to seventh on his subsequent attempt. The Colonel John colt, bred by Leung, may well be headed for the lawn next.

Dastardly Dennis regressed from a 55SP in debut to a 46SP in second start while also moving from a fast well-groomed Florida track to a muddy Ohio mess of a track. Cutting back from 6f to 4.5f may also not have helped the Smarty Jones filly.  Look for the Goldsmith-bred to either go to turf or a longer dirt sprint in the sunshine in a few weeks under the guidance of trainer Simaddict.

Summer Sensation currently holds the lead in Breed My Steed. The Summer Bird filly is graded-placed for trainer Sluggy and breeder Hawkz after two starts.
