A lousy week.\u00a0 Those three words sum it up.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Results<\/b><\/p>\n
CLOCKED OFF has been a pretty good sprinter and after a nice 92 speed in his last but at a long 8.25f I brought him back to a short 4.5f race. He also raced allowance in his last start so he took on a softer starter allowance with a tag requirement of $20,000.\u00a0 Bettors liked this move and made him the 3\/1 favorite in the 10 horse field.\u00a0 He came running late from the ninth spot but did not have enough ground left to make it to the top spot finishing fifth.\u00a0\u00a0 A measly little 2 BP\u2019s were picked up along with the G-sire card.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
MAKE IT SPARKLE also raced in allowance in last and brought down to a 6f claiming race after going a mile for the first time in his career.\u00a0 A 95 speed in the $150,000 pricey claiming races was a shiny, sparkly thing to see but finishing fifth and last was not.\u00a0\u00a0 Collected 5 BP\u2019s on this one and that popular G-card.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Two year old WESTERN COMEDY came back from the farm and ran in a maiden claimer and hopeful of some better things after finishing second in her debut.\u00a0 Fifth place out of six was not better but the speed nudged up to 53, not that great either.\u00a0 She brought back 5 BP\u2019s and a G-card.\u00a0 Like I\u2019ve done with other 2 year olds, this one will go back to the farm and rest up for her next start which may be a tryout on the turf.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Finishing fifth has become boring and KID ALLIANCE was looking to break this trend.\u00a0 He was transferred from turf where he has done his best to see if he could adopt to the dirt.\u00a0\u00a0 Well, he didn\u2019t.\u00a0 Nor did he finish fifth.\u00a0 He finished fourth but the low paying starter allowance points were all chewed up by travel costs.\u00a0 I did get an F-card out of the deal.<\/p>\n
Stable Changes<\/b><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
As mentioned above, Western Comedy is going back to the farm as I like to give the 2 year olds some decent rest between races.\u00a0 The open stable spot goes to BORN IN SEPTEMBER who is a 2 year old that has been resting at the farm, so you can say I\u2019m swapping\u00a0 2 year olds around in this dealing.\u00a0 Born in September is a sire card bred horse who finished fourth in her first start on a yielding turf track.\u00a0\u00a0 With Kingmambo, Sadler\u2019s Wells and Danehill connections in her pedigree, I think the grass will be tested again.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/b>Totals<\/b><\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/b>SIRE CARDS:<\/p>\n
The three G-cards and one F-card \u00a0earned this week which mirrored last weeks results giving me a total of 2 F-card and 8 G-cards.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
BP\u2019s<\/p>\n
A very weak result this week with only 12 BP\u2019s being added to the bank which just barely cracked the 700 level to nudge up to 701.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
