00:09We got the big mare shred the gnar like she wouldn't give us the time of day if I didn't
00:13have any peppermint so at least she's being nice but you know she kind of threw craps at us in
00:20Florida but you know we always kind of felt that she did better up in Churchill and my dad decided
00:26to train her up to the La Troienne and she was doing so good going into the race we really
00:31kind of were
00:32pretty confident that she was going to show up for her to give Dutchman their first grade one win on
00:36Oaks day on my dad's birthday it was a really incredible she's come out of the race great we
00:42decided to kind of just she seems like a filly that does well when she has some space in between
00:46her races and wait until the Florida League kind of made the most sense for us and she's trained on
00:52great since since the La Troienne and we're really excited to run her next Saturday though he he ran
00:58an allowance like derby week and he kind of had a bit of a rough trip but he's come out
01:05of the race
01:05really good and we're pointing towards the the Hanschen closing day going a mile so he didn't
01:12really have much of a chance his first start at Gulfstream he got packed out wide and coming off the
01:17layoff he really put in a better effort than the forum says we've entered him in a race it didn't
01:22go
01:22so we figured we'd just sit on him until closing day but he seems to be doing really well
01:28this is banana frost she's a two-year-old filly by authentic she won first time out last wednesday
01:36five and a half she kind of went gate to wire got out of there real well she's always been
01:40a filly
01:40she came in early at palm meadows and hasn't missed a day of training she's just very very balanced
01:46filly very pretty so um very straightforward we're excited for her future for sure
01:53this is thira this is an on race two-year-old filly by oscar performance she has shown a lot
01:59of talent in the morning so far and she hasn't really been here that long she's just up to a
02:04couple of three-eighths but we really like what we're seeing she's a full sister to a colt we train
02:10named zakynthos who just ran a really good race here in a other than last week so um you know
02:16we
02:16really believe in oscar performance so when we get the chance to bring his babies into our barn we're
02:21always excited so this is fancy sailor he's a three-year-old colt by justify he just knocked out
02:28a other than last week at churchill and uh he's been a cult that my dad's always really been high
02:35on
02:35since he came in as a two-year-old we trained his dam and she was very talented herself he's
02:40got a
02:40bit of personality to him for sure but he's just a horse that when you watch him train in the
02:45morning
02:45he just kind of carries himself in a way that a lot of the the good ones do i'd say
02:49later down the
02:50year looking towards kentucky downs we got a lot of got high hopes for him for sure this is maytown
02:56she's a four-year-old by motown and she is very talented she has not been off the board in
03:03any of
03:03her starts she knocked out three in the row last year as a three-year-old won the p patch
03:08had a
03:08bit of a setback we got a race into her a couple of weeks ago she ran second to a
03:12very nice mayor of
03:13kent sweezy's who was coming off a big win on preakness day so looking forward to her rest of
03:18the year kentucky downs type for sure this is storm's wake three-year-old philly by oscar performance
03:25grade winner of the appalachian or grade two winner of the appalachian in keeneland this spring
03:31uh just uh been really kind of a you know barn favorite since she came in she beat the boys
03:37in
03:38an allowance in her second start as a two-year-old and she's kind of a horse that she needs
03:42a trip and
03:42she needs a pace to run at but you know she hasn't really had a race where she doesn't have
03:46something
03:46at the end this is blue this is probably the actual mvp of the barn there is definitely not a
03:53horse that goes out for more sets than him every day this is prize pick he's a three-year-old
03:58colt
03:59by tis the law he's actually a full brother to tis tastic who was in last year's derby and uh
04:05he's
04:05one of those horses that really took him a lot of time to put it together in the afternoon and
04:09he ran a lot of good races in florida but they just kind of weren't get enough good enough to
04:14get it
04:14done but as soon as we got him back up to churchill he won a maiden special weight on the
04:20last race of
04:20derby day very impressively and he came back and knocked out the ailer then in his next start like
04:26even more impressively this is hey tough guy tdn rising star son of life is good
04:34one by seven first time out going five and a half my dad found him at the sale he's just
04:40like the
04:40ultimate racehorse just has that mentality like he goes to the track trains nothing silly goes does
04:47his job comes back eats and sleeps the rest of the day so um you know we're really excited for
04:52him he's
04:52gonna run in the bashford manor this is where luck lives tdn rising star when she broke her maiden
04:59at keeneland she uh is a daughter of nyquist half sister to vava so she came in as a two
05:06-year-old and
05:07really was one of our favorites in the group she really ran a bang-up race first time out
05:12beaten by very little going five eights on the dirt at ellis she had a bit of a setback and
05:17we brought
05:17her back in florida she never missed a beat and uh she really acts like she could be
05:24a very special filly and uh you know we're pointing towards probably some races up at saratoga later
05:29in the summer this is the famous houseboat party uh daughter of flight line she ran third first time
05:37out last week going five eights on the dirt i mean obviously ultimately goal with her be two turns
05:43down the road uh she's shown some things in the morning you don't really see a lot from two-year
05:47-olds
05:48so uh you know we thought she ran really well the best part of her race was probably right when
05:53she
05:53got to the eighth pole she really started getting going um and she galloped out great so we're just
05:57gonna probably wait until they start running baby races a bit longer one turn and just let her fill
06:03out put on some weight get some miles under her belt but uh we really think a lot of this
06:07filly
06:08this is betty's pearl a three-year-old daughter of munting she just won a other than a couple weeks
06:15ago at churchill she ran a 90 buyer she really was a filly that always was kind of trying hitting
06:21the
06:21board and when she kind of broke through at gulfstream she kind of figured it all out and expect
06:25um really when we put the blinkers on her too that was the kind of the the key i think
06:30that
06:31really got her figuring things out in the afternoon and she was very impressive last time out at
06:36churchill so we uh probably pointing towards stakes uh later on in the summer for sure
06:42this is epic proud mary recent maiden special weight winner here at churchill she was pretty
06:48impressive broke from the 12 hole and went wire to wire she had a race at keeneland in the spring
06:53it
06:54was her first start had a bit of a troubled trip she got another race endure at churchill and she
07:00ran
07:00second to a very talented filly of will walden's named movie night and uh you know going into this
07:05third start we were pretty confident that she was going to finally be able to kind of show how
07:09talented we think she is she was a workmate for where luck lives all winter at palmettos and it was
07:15like 50 50 who you asked who liked who more in the barn come here what's up he's a ladies
07:23man i swear
07:24he doesn't like dudes this is angle file winner of the 2023 dueling grounds derby at the time i believe
07:31it's the nashville derby now but uh he's just been an old war horse for us like he has danced
07:36a lot of
07:37big dances and uh very kind of horse that needs a trip and needs a pace but he just keeps
07:43running those
07:43good races that that keep you believing him in enough to keep entering him in those stakes and if
07:48you watched him breeze like last week you you say he's got plenty of gas left in the tank
07:53if we're going to talk about anybody we're going down the shed road you cannot not mention
07:58my main man right here julio and antonio guys that have been with us for years and you know
08:03they make it all happen without good staff and good people around your horses it's uh
08:08it makes it 10 times harder so you know believe me we're so thankful for everything they do every day
08:15got one of the big mares sister troyen three-year-old filly by munnings kind of i don't think really
08:21needs much of an introduction at this point she had a quite the winter down at gulfstream we gave her
08:27a
08:27bit of a break after the race at keeneland and got her back here about a week or two ago
08:31she's just
08:31starting back up galloping now but um you know we're hoping for big things later in the year
08:36definitely ellis parker kentucky downs and just a lot to like about her it's really been since november
08:44at last churchill we've kind of been on a roll but you know i i really think my dad is
08:49an amazing
08:49horseman and um you know we've just built up such a great group of clients you know 20 30 years
08:55of work
08:55on my dad's part to get to this so you know some people might think it's just out of nowhere
09:00but
09:01really you know my dad's been training horses and winning big races for a long time so to be a
09:05part
09:06of it and to be his assistant at churchill and the crew we have and the clients we train for
09:11just
09:11everybody makes it so much fun it's like my third year working for my dad as an assistant for him
09:16full
09:16time i grew up working in the barn obviously every summer break school break but i started working
09:22pretty seriously thinking about a career in horses around 16. i worked at windstar grooming on the
09:27weekends and i worked at taylormade right out of high school for a summer prepping yearlands as soon
09:33as i graduated i went to work for brendan walsh for about two years and then came back to my
09:38dad so it's
09:39been pretty full on but i literally could not imagine doing anything else i would probably go insane
09:44it's just an amazing opportunity for me
