00:04I'm going to start up here with a horse that just came in off a layoff. He'd been out for
00:08some time, had a little bit of an issue, but he's back training. He's a horse called First Resort
00:14that won the Jockey Club last year and was on the Derby Trail for a brief period. And he's coming
00:22back as a four-year-old. It's an Uncle Mo out of Fair Maiden. Owen Harty trains. Fourth in the
00:28stake at Woodbine. I think it was a grade one. And a nice colt. Was very authoritative in his win
00:35of the Jockey Club, so we thought we were in a good spot. That's racing. It'll give you a curveball
00:42every now and again when you don't expect it. But Grand Horse, straightforward. He'll train here
00:48until probably March or April and then go back to Owen. More likely he'll stay at Torfway for the
00:54summer. This is an intermischief out of Amircall Lake Avenue. She was a decent filly. Intermischief,
01:01you can see the old man in him. Had some same thing again. Had some condo bruising, got some time
01:07off. This one is Billy Motts. This, you can see a bit of the Stormcat and the old man in
01:12him. He's
01:14just back on the tack here for the last two weeks. We have gloves off, placed twice. Ran in a
01:22stake
01:22here in the fall. In over his head a little bit. Went to Florida with Owen and had a bit
01:29of bad luck.
01:29And Tampa, I think he fractured there and they did the surgery in Florida. He's here for the last three
01:35weeks. And this is the filly you just saw leave. Her name is Syncopate. She's a gun runner and she's
01:43just still immature. So she's heading out to the farm for a while. Okay. Nothing, you know, it's just a
01:49matter of
01:49giving her more time to mature. This is a nice filly here. This is a half sister to Knightsbridge.
01:57This is a street sense. She was supposed to go to Florida to build on that van that left on
02:03the
02:03first. But she had a bit of a setback here and lost a month of training. And this is a
02:08nice filly. And
02:09it was probably a month that she benefited from because she was very immatureish. But she's a nice
02:15filly. She breezed yesterday. She's a typical Corlin. She needs a bit more time to come to herself.
02:22But she's doing very well. I expect her to go back to Brad here during the meet. I'll get her
02:28up to a
02:29half mile before she leaves. That's about as far as I'd breeze them per se, you know. I mean to
02:35stay
02:35longer they breeze more. But I don't usually work them five-eighths anymore, you know. I like to let
02:40them have the transition when they leave here to keep forward. So she'd probably go over to him
02:44during the meet. And she's a nice filly. And we gave her plenty of time because she's a typical of
02:50a Corlin physically and mentally. But she's coming together really well. This is Rose Room. This is
02:59Mike Stidham's. This filly was fourth in a stake at Kentucky Downs. She's a winner. That's a massage
03:06machine. It's called a Niagara. It's a great machine. This filly got turned out. She just needed
03:12time. She's a ghost sapper. She'll get better with age. She'll go back to Mike here in the spring
03:17meet. And she's probably a stakes caliber at Colonial. And she likes the turf. Okay. This is
03:24Infinite Sky. This filly ran in the Breeders' Cup card out there. This is a filly. I think she was
03:29second with Brad Cox. And she went out to the Breeders' Cup turf. And we end up taking a chip
03:35out of her
03:35knee. So she got some time off. So she's just come back in under tack. And she'll go back to
03:41Brad Cox
03:42here during the meet. Okay. This filly is Mike Stidham's here. This filly is stakes placed in the
03:49sorority stakes at Monmouth. And a winner at Colonial, I believe. Needed time off. She'll go back to Mike.
03:56She'll end up going up to Colonial again. This is Connor. This is the most, that's Mike. This is the
04:04most noble of professions right here. The farrier. Thanks for fixing that shoe on your
04:11buddy there buddy. All right. This is, this is a colt to have a lot of, a lot of time
04:20for
04:20this horse. This is one of owns. Ran twice. Hit the board twice. He's an Uncle Mo. He's out of
04:27a
04:27mare called Mowity. She was stakes placed, greatest stakes placed and a stakes winner. And she's
04:35a Bernie mare. And she was a filly that we broke at the farm in James Lane quite a number
04:44of years back. And this is an Uncle Mo out of her. This is a horse by Nyquist out of
04:52a good
04:52mare called Octave. That's going back a ways now. Has limited talent. He's had a few issues.
05:00He ran once in Delaware last year. Didn't quite live up to par. Live up to the pedigree. There's
05:06nothing wrong with him. But this is a situation where this horse could end up in the rehoming
05:11program. Which is great because, you know, you got to look after him a little bit. And if
05:16he's not quite up to par, I mean there's nothing wrong with claiming races at the higher level.
05:21So, so we're still evaluating this guy. And we do the rehoming out of this barn as well.
05:27Okay. This is Jefferson Street. Didn't quite live up to his form. He came back here. Had a
05:37little setback. I've gelded him since. We don't keep a lot of five-year-olds in the program.
05:42But there's this guy here in Nash. Nash's stakes placed. They'll, this is Brad Cox's. And Nash,
05:49no, this is Bill Mott's and Nash's Brad's. They'll end up going back there probably after
05:55the meet. And they've got conditions if they can win a stake, right? Just think big. You
06:03probably know this guy. He's a stakes winner here. He's a sprinter on the turf. And he'll
06:08go back to Mike Stidham during the meet here. I think this horse was placed in a stake at Saratoga.
06:16This guy can run a little bit. Now, I had him here as a two-year-old into his three
06:20-year-old
06:21year. And at the time, he'd had a stress fracture in front. He was healed up good. And I was
06:27just
06:27looking, I said, Michael, we might be better just cutting this horse, you know, making a
06:31gelding out of him. And it turned out all right, you know. Like I said, he's a lot of fun
06:35to have
06:35in the barn. And he's a five-year-old, but these old sprinters get better with age, you know.
06:40And this is the other gelding I talked about, Nash. He'll go back to Brad Cox. Stakes placed.
06:47I think he's won three. So there's still a few miles on this guy. Most of the time,
06:51these families that come through here, it's just a matter of horses needing a bit more time.
06:57This barn's opened 20 years in October. So I've seen a lot of the dams popping up. And now the
07:02dams are
07:03the daughters of dams and stuff. Along the way, these mares will end up with a nice horse that
07:10will just have a little bit of a bump in the road, needs a bit of time to get caught
07:14up. And this is
07:15an ideal place to do it without losing much time, you know. And it helps them develop a little bit
07:20as well. So they're never really off the track unless they're in a paddock for a month. But it all
07:26benefits the horse in the end. We've had some good ones in here over the years. With Mystic Guide,
07:31winning the Dubai Cup was a big, big plus. And Highland Falls was a horse that I always had a
07:37lot of time for him, you know. I had the fortune to name him. Soventry was in the league of
07:44his own.
07:44He was a ton of class. He was here for a couple of months. And immersive I'd had a couple
07:51of times.
07:51She's doing very well. And good cheer. She was another filly that I saw her in Payson last month.
07:57She looks great. She looks great. She should come back a little stronger this year.
08:02In the first group that came in here, as I call it, the charter group, there was two fillies that
08:08I was quite fond of. One was Music Note and one was Cocoa Beach. And they were good fillies. But
08:15they
08:16just had Zenyatta was the only problem there. I think Cocoa Beach was second to her. And I think
08:26Music Note might have been second and third to her. And Music Note ended up, of course,
08:32being the dam of Mystic Guide. So they were two special fillies. And they were in my first group here
08:39that 2006, October. I trained publicly in Paris Pike for about 15 years. And then Jimmy Bell called me
08:49up and asked me if I would be interested in doing this. And I said, yeah.
