Win. Impressionable
Place. Final Conquest
Show. Night Visions
Non of these guys particularly struck me as marathon savvy horses. Impressionable's conditioning and recent runs at the distance this season propelled her to a gutsy victory over the stallions.
GALLOP TO THE GALLOWS STAKES** - G5+ 10F D 2YOS THE YOUTH CHALLENGE SERIES
WIN Aristaeus 300,000 S u N f r O s T ~
place Amnesty 150,000 ripley
show Flashbang 50,000 Scotia
4th Samaritan Hero
5th Charmed Weapon
Boy do I love me some dirt routers *.* Aristaeus took this race to heart as this distance and this track is his stomping grounds. He was ready from the get-go and managed to take this track head-on. Amnesty brought up the back of the pack and gave a strong closing kick that overpowered Flashbang from his comfort zone towards the wire.
For Charmed Weapon, I think he's made it quite clear that he has no interest in going the extra distance and prefers 8-9.5 furlongs. He'll be a great contender for the TW Red Mile as a three year old and perhaps even the BC Mile come next season.
AJC SIRES PRODUCE STAKES** - G5+ 10F T 2YOS THE TURF CHALLENGE SERIES
Win. Rising Wonder 270,000 Rendezvous
Place. In My Remains 135,000 Sammy
Show. Hyperion 45,000 S u N f r O s T ~
Fourth. Wings of Angels
Fifth. Peacebreaker
Wings Of Angels: Although you've been running her on the turf, her pedigree screams dirt to me. Her sire was a monster on the dirt and her dam-line is strictly classic dirt. She might stand out far more on that surface. Definitely should give a thought to pointing her for the dirt filly races, later season dirt distance series races because she might be a tough cookie.
Note: Sammy & Isabelle: You both have In My Remains and Wings of Angels as winning the Sanford Stakes, May Wk 4 at TW. Since, I don't believe we have deadheats any longer, one of these two lost that race or it was judged twice.
CARNIVAL CROWN STAKES** - G5+ 7F D 2YOS THE YOUTH SPRINT SERIES
WIN Icarus Flight 240,000 Rendezvous
PLACE Foxy Passion 120,000 Cruisey
SHOW Kallisto 40,000 S u N f r O s T ~

RUSHY RUSH RUSH STAKES** - G5+ 7F T 2YOS THE GREEN SPRINT SERIES
WIN Wayward Lass 210,000 ripley
place Constitution 105,000 Ender
show Final Velocity 35,000 Cruisey
4th Everlasting Gift (nose)
5th Miss Abilene
Well then. Everlasting Gift was the sure favorite to win this race today, but the odds didn't seem to in the colt's favor today. The top three horses were all incredibly competitive horses that set a very fast pace out on the turf at GHF. The top four horses were incredibly competitive and fought hard to cross the finish line. Everlasting Gift was raring to go from the start and broke out of the starting gate early.
The top three horses have excelled at this distance, but Everlasting Gift has shown promise at the 5-6 furlong range. The top three horses have the makings of milers and were able to handle this challenge with ease.
Miss Abilene, although a good filly, couldn't keep up with such a competitive group of horses. However, don't let this get you down, she had the tenacity to hold her own in order to cross the finish line.
