– The listed purse for the race is what is to be divided among all the participants. Several were on purse distribution and others had to do with horse identification.ġ) What is the purse distribution of a race and is the purse amount for the winner or split among all the horses? I’ve been gathering more questions and we’ll tackle them here. Posted in 2014 Racing Club, Canterbury Racing Club | Tagged Maryjean, Ry Eikleberry | 12 Replies No Race Thursday
We are aiming for TERICE to run on August 9. As a reminder, group 5 consists of Schneidermann – Ziegler. I will meet you all in the paddock prior to the race. Unfortunately (or fortunately), Friday night at the track is a very busy time and all the venues are booked so this is one of the rare times that the club will not have a place of our own for everyone to gather. Alex Canchari has opted to ride another in the race but we don’t miss a beat with Ry Eikleberry getting the mount. The race is the 5th going six furlongs over the dirt with a purse of $28,500. We had the option of possibly dropping her down to $5,000 claiming to get a race but the thought was that there are times when these first level allowances come up light and she’s been training excellent so we’d give her a shot there with the option of dropping down later in the meet. We entered her in a first level allowance race for horses that have never won a race outside of maiden, claiming and starters which is why she fits in this condition – she’s only ever won a maiden race and claimers. I think she can outrun VISUAL BLESSING and PRINCESS DINAH – I’m just not sure if she came overcome Platinum Lady. MJ may be coming from a bit further off the pace than she is used to in what promises to be pretty quick early fractions. If Dean Butler can rate the favorite off the pace and not get dragged along too quickly, they are going to be really tough when the running starts. This should hopefully push the pace along quicker than anyone (but us!) want it to be. A couple of things do play in MJ’s favor: PLATINUM LADY will want to be close to the lead but many of the others will want to be on or near the lead as well.
If PLATINUM LADY is the real deal then, like I mentioned above, we’re all running for second. A former Brinson runner, Clay does not think that she is out of our class at all.Ħ) Mount Stepney (Sweere/Escobar) – She’s hit the board in all three career starts and finished second behind an excellent performance by It’s Amore at this level last out in her first start of 2014 where she tried to come off the place rather than show the speed she did in her two 2013 efforts. She had a very solid two starts at Arlington over the polytrack there and had a respectable third in her first out here in June, though fialing as the favorite. She likes to be near the lead and with our girl’s running style, a pace prompter is always welcome.ĥ) Princess Dinah (Padilla/Canchari) – This is the lady that Alex is riding. It is worth noting, however, that she was beaten soundly by the top two. Speed figures appear to make her a cut below the rest in here but she does have some early speed which can be dangerous at Canterbury.Ĥ) Holiday N Newport (Brinson/Martin) – Clay’s other horse in the race is a $6250 claim who ran third at this level, off the turf, last time out. She finished 4th at this level two back before being outrun on Extreme Day in the 2 furlong dash.ģ) Informal Fannie (Bethke/Stevens) – Took a state bred allowance last out. Her huge jump in speed figures appears to be an anomaly, but may the addition of Butler made the difference? If her last is an indication of her true ability then we are all battling for second.Ģ) Visual Blessing (Bolinger/Martinez) – Hasn’t won since May of ’13. Let’s take a look at the field.ġ) Platinum Lady (Heitzmann/Butler) – She had two near misses in MSW company followed by a powerhouse win. MARYJEAN steps into allowance ranks Friday night and it does appear that her figures make her competitive here.
