I would just like to say my time as a residency has been not only been a busy one , but quite enjoyable, hectic and even learned a few things a long the way. Its amazing how long it takes to put a overall plan in place, and damned if your wrong and you have to start all over again. I hope all in my residency are enjoying it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Having said all this, have A Merry Christmas & A Happy New Year to you all. Sim players regardless of where they decide to play are what make this great game just keep moving on. And a special thanks to all who designate their time to make this game just that much better, including the story writers, the BTB and of course Mike himself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here is a look at the race brought to you by The Canadian Thoroughbred Residency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

RING WALK 7 -1<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From the canadianstar stables, this colt has 3 wins from 7 starts, and his daddy right now, Point Of Entry, is a superstar stud right now. He has been in the money 6 of his 7 races as well , but in his last just did not fire like normal in a race he should
have handled quite easily, finishing 6th, well back, even with accomplished jockey J Hernandez on his back. He will get a jockey switch on this day with, G Skaggs taking over the mount, and in hopes of changing his racing luck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SADLER’S DYNAFORMER 8 \u2013 1<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although he is a perfect 3 for 3 on the podium, his connections are a little disappointed with his final positioning. In each of his races he has shown signs that he could come storming in, but always just finishing short. It is obvious he needs a little more space, and he will run for 7f for the last time today, before he stretches out next season. With any luck, he will make his move at the right possible time. S Brownridge will take the laces for the Ontracing stables.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ONTARIO DEFENCE 12 \u2013 1<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So far during his campaign he has tried the stakes competition twice and failed, not miserably, but not convincing runs either. He may have woken up at the right time last time out in a 43000 ALW taking home the top prize, and the highly regarded rookie jockey R Edwards takes over the mount.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

KURAI SHOSAN 5 \u2013 1<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anytime a Survivor Series breeding turns out to be something of a hot shot, we here at the CTR will celebrate, and this is where we are with this horse. Four for seven lifetime in the win column, he has tried the stakes level once, and although he did not hit the podium, he showed signs of hanging tough. He left it just a little late that day, but has since been seasoned, and banged off a nice win last out. L Jenkins will take over for the mohawkpark stables<\/p>\n\n\n\n

POINTING UPWARD 6 \u2013 1<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another Point Of Entry colt, Pointing Upward comes off a nice win in the ALW levels last time out scoring his second win in 7 starts. He is nicely bred, and suggests a real possible threat in this race if he can get his way on the lead. The canadaclass stables are certainly hoping this is the case. K Wakeman has the reigns, and a win here would not be a major upset.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

BREWSTER’S POINT 8 \u2013 1<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Seven podium hits in 8 tries, 4 of those being wins including her last two. She seems to be always sniffing around the winners circle, even when not capitilizing, but she will find these much tougher than what she has been racing. Having said that, knowing which stable she is coming from, she is hitting all cylinders right now and could be the one. She is sent out by the mississauga stables and is a nother POINT OF ENTRY baby.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WELL CANADA 12 \u2013 1<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even though Well Canada was coming off a winning race two back, she was more of an after thought when coming into the Res. Race, and with a surface switch to boot, she did not disapoint, showing real signs of life in the stretch, improving 6 positions in the stretch, to eventual winner Deep Divots who is also in here.
Time for revenge possibly ?
Sam stables will send this Cape Canavaral filly out to try to make a solid impact with B Ironside in the saddle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WHERE’STHECANDYAT 8 \u2013 1<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This Where’s The Ring colt is right now searching for his place in the 2 year old rankings, being one of only two in here, with very little racing experience. He has hit the podium in both of his races trying both surfaces, and now will get a bit of an acid test, giving him an idea where he may stand in the future. The Candy Ride pedigree is prominent in todays race, and could be a real deciding factor. R Heenan has the drivers seat for the canadianstar1 stables entry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ART ENTRY 4 \u2013 1<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another POINT OF ENTRY colt Art Entry has had an interesting campaign up to this point. He certainly has the ability to make strides at the lower levels, but when asked upon at the stakes levels, he has suffered lag in his game, and his results have shown. I believe in this colt, and he probsably just needs a little more seasoning before being a major impact at those levels on a permanent basis. Rollinstables certainly believes in his abilties and today could be his calling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ROCK U BABY 12 -1<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sonnycanuck stables sends out Rock U Baby for his third try of the season, using established henchman B Renfroe in the saddle. His SP has been decent in his attempts, but his last race was a bit of a bummer seeing his SP production take a drop, along with his performance, and he is hoping for a bounce back from that race. Inexperience will more than likely be a calling factor for this one on this day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DEEP DIVOTS 12 \u2013 1<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Odds , What Odds ?
This 2 year old filly who just keeps defying the betting public, and just goes about her business, as was the case in her last when winning the CTR res race she was in at better than 7 to 1 odds, beating out Well Canada , another in here that day. She has won 4 of her 5 races, with her only blemish being a third coming off a claim by the joffre stables. C Orza has the mount on this day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Race Predictions
Being a bit bias here I have to go with Sadler’s Dynaformer for the upset over Kurai Shosan and Brewster’s Point. Quite simply , there are just too many possible scenarios this race could take and the odds are out the window.. Good Luck to everyone.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
