they have clm 35 and 50k for n2l so maybe that's a little more realistic than an allowance race ..think I'd want the extra protection of the latter for my first shot and then drop if necessary ..be interesting to see where he winds up



.

latter being clm 50k and not the allowance race

[JBEX]

Agree JBEX. That was the race to take him if you were going to.

honestly I would not want to lose this horse for $20k and I believe there's a good chance they will if they run him in the same type of race next out..think he may have needed that effort as it was such a long time since he'd been in all out competitive race..when in shape I think he could possibly win a turf sprint or even an allowance race down the road

Agree JBEX. That was the race to take him if you were going to.

[/COLOR]
Straight No Chaser had his final breeze in preparation for the G2 Riyadh Dirt Sprint on Monday morning. Working under Juan Landeros, Straight No Chaser broke off from the 800 meter pole and cruised over the Riyadh main track in :48 and change. In the video above it will take you through your son of Speightster's morning including the pre-work instructions from trainer Dan Blacker to assistant Juan Landeros, the work itself and Dan's opinion on how the work went.
He cooled out in great shape after the work, scoped clean and all we can do is hope everything continues in good order over the next few days. We are very pleased with how everything has went to thus point. Straight No Chaser will likely have a walk day tomorrow which is his usual schedule a day after a work but depending on his energy in the morning, he could potentially head out for an easy jog on the training track if necessary. He is also scheduled to have is first day of paddock schooling tomorrow morning. This will be a very quick introduction to the paddock and as we mentioned, he is scheduled to also school Wednesday and Thursday in the afternoons. https://cdnb-media.myracehorse.com/b...9788888353.mp4

Looks great Batt.

on the lead while facing serious pace pressure from the 1/4 to well past the 3/8th ..held together pretty well to finish 2nd by 1.5 lengths ..good chance to win at or around this level next out

Nice to see this horse get the class relief it needs.
I think the horse fits with these.
I think he is worth solid consideration .

[/COLOR]
Real Savvy is doing great at Wavertree Stables and most recently breezed three furlongs this past Friday. His next breeze will likely come at the Ocala showcase on Saturday, February 22nd and that will be his final breeze before shipping back to trainer Christophe Clement the following week. Farm trainer Ciaran Dunne believes the time has done Real Savvy a world of good, allowing him to fill out into his frame. We are excited to see what 2025 has in store for this son of Authentic.

What a heck of a horse race! Caldera lost the head bob... I thought he was going right on by "getaway car" but hung a little galloped out nicely though!

What an excellent effort Batt ! Great to see.

it was and possibly going as wide as he did cost him towards the end ..cost them $160k and I believe 10 pts but more importantly he moves forward as a derby contender..the filly version going half furlong shorter was 6 seconds off the track record while the derby was 2 seconds off so potentially the figure caldera ran might be very good

It certainly adds another dynamic to a tough game. One man's $40 is another's 40K.

OP R7 #5 A Mule/ Gia Causeway. Why shouldn't he be able to go forever? I kinda like the 8.

Thats true! Missed the race... distracted by Caldera stuff

That late money stuff drives me nuts..... for sure.....
