BGR Invades Philly Park!

We have two runners at Philly Park this weekend in Cool Clue and Richwood Silver. Cool Clue runs Friday, December 18th, in the 6th race going 1 mile and 70 yards. We are looking forward to seeing him run in this spot. Richwood Silver runs Sunday in the 4th race going 1 mile. It looks to be a very good spot for her and we were able to attain Tony Black, who is a 27% jockey for both mounts. He is known for his uncanny ability to get a speed horse home. Richwood is most definitely that!

Down in Florida, the horses are all getting ready for their first work down there or their next race. Mizz Liza worked today going 4 furlongs in 50.20 in what Chuck described as a very deep tiring surface. We are hoping to find a race for her in the 2nd condition book at Tampa Bay Downs. Albin readied himself with some interval training going up and down hills within a huge field at the Classic Mile Park. He is targeted for a race on the 23rd at Tampa. It is also reported that he, along with Big Shake (targeted Dec 26th race) have been loving the turnout paddocks and both of them have found every possible piece of mud within their respective paddocks.

Gondorf has been getting over some dental work and another minor aliment and we are hoping to have him ready to go the first or second week of January. Colonel Klink is readying for what should be a mid January return to the races, we are hoping for some good weather so we can take advantage of the ability to work over the Classic Mile Park turf course. Rochelle Rochelle is doing good and while we missed a race for her on the 16th due to clerical error, it may have been a blessing as there is another hopefully less competitive race towards the end of the December.

Have a good holiday season,
BGR
