After a last place finish in her debut, it didn't look like Twinpost was going to pan out for us. But after finding her right level, she went out today on a high note and won her final race while being claimed away. With her tendency to quit near the end of races and her physical problems, it was a good time for her to find a new barn. We might have been able to squeeze a couple more good races out of her, but she will be in need of a rest soon. While selling here for 1/2 what we paid for her, she was able to win enough on the track to pay for herself. Best wishes TP.
Today's race wrapped up a great weekend - 2 wins in 2 races. Chief grinded out a victory at a nice price (6-1). With Thornton getting hurt the day before and Paul out of town, we were fortunate to have Tanner available to pick up the mount. He and Chief seem to get along well. The 2 wins this weekend makes 20 on the year!
Next race - Stage Glitter makes her debut on Friday (race 5). I have not looked at the race in detail, but we are the morning line favorite. That's a good sign.
