When it comes to our stable, I try to compile horses at various claiming levels so that we are diversified and can easily find races at the various tracks. I have been trying to fill a void in our stable for a while - we were lacking a lower-priced female. We added a "cheap" mare today ($8k split 2 ways) - Secret Lies. She is a 6 year-old Florida-bred who at one time was a very nice filly. She has been off-form for a while and we thought she might be eligible to improve with a switch to Jamie's program. So far, she has checked out fine physically.
For those thinking about betting on Thursday's races, I think General would be the better option. I expect a better effort than we saw a couple weeks ago. Ravencliff is in a deep field and he might be a little hard-pressed to get the mile distance off the shelf. I would demand at least 4-1 or better before wagering on him.
