Off to Grosbois first thing Friday morning after watching Riposte run 4th at Enghien the previous evening. All four of the 2yos Marion, Bernard and David took qualified respectably, but not brilliantly, in the 1.20 to 1.21 km rate range (for 2000m) Of course everything was new to them and 3 false starts used up a lot of Sierra's energy. (Sierra top pic, Superbowl below). But the time has come to get the ecurie in hand (with Tina and Twilight coming into work any day!)and so all four were worked exactly the same way on Sunday. The fillies had progressed the best, so Sierra (along with Salima, the other Lutin Malin filly) will stay but Superbowl (along with Seul, the full brother to Querido) will go the sales at the end of the month. (Rosario with them.)
David reports that Porto is jumping out of his skin and that Orlando is trotting perfectly for the moment. No need to say that everything is crossed. (Nov 18 will hopefully be D day.)
