Smart Shopping '21 Update

Smart Shopping ‘21 enjoyed his scheduled mini break of a few weeks off from training and returned to work today at Wavertree. Like Secret Crush and others, the son of Arrogate’s kept his fitness level up by swimming in the farm’s pool and taking strolls in his paddock. 

As he returns to training, the 2-year-old will begin with field work and then proceed to the training track for his daily exercise. 

Ciaran remarked to our team that he would like to see Smart Shopping ’21 get stronger physically. Depending upon how the next month goes in his training, he might be ready for his first piece of what we refer to as “speed work” — a sixteenth of a mile breeze. But Ciaran will allow the colt to let him know when he is ready to take that next step. 

We’re expecting to have video of Smart Shopping ‘21 training in the coming days and will share in our next update.
