A\u00a0half dozen\u00a0older distaffers will greet starter Otis Campbell in this week’s South Carolina feature, The ALVARELLA(IRE) Handicap, to be contested at the distance of nine furlongs\u00a0over the Andy Taylor turf course.\u00a0 Let’s meet the\u00a0six classy Southern belles\u00a0in post position order.<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
Breaking along the hedge\u00a0will be Rafa Stables’ razor sharp Teresita<\/STRONG>.\u00a0 The striking daughter of Hennesy and Teresa (Kayf Tara) will be seeking\u00a0a fourth victory in her last five tries.\u00a0\u00a0Last time out, in\u00a0North Dakota’s\u00a0The Green Ham Memorial which was also run over nine grassy panels,\u00a0the NWRC based mare stalked the speedy Nightsong for\u00a0six furlongs\u00a0before putting that graded placed foe away.\u00a0 She then dug in gamely and held favored Pressure Drop safe by a diminishing neck at the wire.\u00a0 Teresita\u00a0will most likely use her excellent tactical speed to be on or near the\u00a0lead throughout.\u00a0 Looms a major threat.\u00a0\u00a0<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
The Residency of Anarcho-Syndicalist Hermits will be well represented in this contest as R. A. S. H. guru Donny Beisbol’s Alotta Balata<\/STRONG> will proudly carry\u00a0his red and black colors into combat.\u00a0 Donny’s homebred comes off a rousing victory in New Zealand in a conditioned claimer at this week’s distance.\u00a0\u00a0I asked Donny about his filly’s name.<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
“I named\u00a0here for esteemed Canadian trainer Balata,\u00a0who has a penchant for Northern Dancer inbreeding…and golf.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0One day, in the chat, he shows me all his horribly inbred, super fast runners.\u00a0 <\/FONT>So I breed a horse using\u00a0three different grandsons of Northern Dancer, all out of Habitat mares (you know, for extra EXTRA speed),\u00a0and guess what?\u00a0 She can actually run a bit!”<\/FONT><\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/FONT>\u00a0<\/SPAN><\/DIV>
<\/SPAN>\u00a0<\/DIV>
<\/SPAN>\u00a0<\/DIV>
<\/SPAN>Far be it from this reporter to\u00a0tarnish a fellow conditioner’s reputation,\u00a0particularly one I call friend, but there\u00a0IS<\/STRONG> a reason\u00a0the King of King’s filly wasn’t claimed out of that race.\u00a0 Let me just\u00a0point out\u00a0that\u00a0NOBODY has\u00a0yet improved one off of Donny “Needle Man” Beisbol.\u00a0 I’m not saying Donny B uses a lot of hormones or steroids on his stock, but Alotta Balata has an awfully low pitched whinny.\u00a0 If you see the vet’s truck in front of the D B barn this week, RUN to the windows!\u00a0 On a serious note, it should be pointed out that Donny’s filly is three for three lifetime at the distance on grass.\u00a0 And we all know that anything can happen in a horse race.<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
Do not let the\u00a0price scare you off.\u00a0 Damigella<\/STRONG> is much better than those 48-1 odds might indicate.\u00a0 Fastnfirm is a rock solid trainer\u00a0who has earned his reputation and impressive statistics (\u00a013.5% Wins, 44% ITM) by placing his stock where they can compete.\u00a0 His big daughter of Pivotal and Cat Linda (Acatenango) won two straight before encountering road trouble in her two most recent outings.\u00a0 She has hit the board in four of six starts for this barn and a return to the surface over which\u00a0she broke her maiden at first asking may bring improved results. \u00a0<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
Whether you’re talking Eclipse Champions,\u00a0stc claimers, or anything in between, the name Kaif is on most everyone’s lips.\u00a0 The popular and controversial conditioner with the big\u00a0ego and talent to match\u00a0sends out one of his all time favorites for this contest.\u00a0 Her name is Jumron’s Memory<\/STRONG>.\u00a0 And she is very special to Greg.\u00a0 Jumron x Northern Dancer x Mr. Prospector might look like a colossal waste of credits to you or me, but Greg has a soft spot in his otherwise hard heart for Jumron.\u00a0 <\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
In the mid 1990’s, Greg was eking out a meager living betting horses, playing poker and working odd jobs when the handsome son of Sharpo and the French mare, Flambera, caught his eye.\u00a0\u00a0Jumron’s final crop\u00a0is now five years old and consists of only seven horses.\u00a0 Two are stakes winners.\u00a0 Both were bred by Greg.\u00a0 Jumron’s Memory prepped for this stake with a very quick (1:48, SP 107) allowance tally in South Dakota.\u00a0 Leading jock Victor “Spider” Webb gets the leg up.\u00a0<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
Kf Stables sends out marathon mare First Lady<\/STRONG> for this tilt.\u00a0 The long winded daughter of Fasliyev has won three stakes between twelve and sixteen furlongs.\u00a0 Two back the huge (17 hands) filly blew the doors off a fine field at Woodbine in the two mile Round Well Stakes.\u00a0 First Lady raced mid pack until roused by jockey Linville in head stretch.\u00a0 At that point, Kf’s charge virtually exploded past her startled rivals.\u00a0 As track announcer Dan Loiselle called it, “First Lady has it by four and she’s lookin’ for more!”\u00a0 Looms a major threat if she can shorten up successfully.<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
Rounding out\u00a0our compact but classy field is the lightning quick, DelPenn based, Dam The River<\/STRONG>.\u00a0 Carrying the familiar\u00a0but forbidding colors of Black Label\u00a0Stables, the speedster will be trying the turf for only the fourth time in her career.\u00a0 Trainer Sdmf\u00a0is hopeful that his Green Desert X Vice Regent five year old can make the transition smoothly.\u00a0 Dam The River turned in her fastest career speed figures (102 and 103) two and three starts back finishing second both times in allowance competition.\u00a0 Her first three turf tries were not encouraging and she will need to take a big step forward here in order to justify her short odds of 2-1.\u00a0 <\/DIV>
