Simply Enchanting Draws In but Fails to Fire

Simply Enchanting failed to fire this afternoon at Churchill Downs R#5 and checked in last under Flavien Prat. 

Our daughter of Nyquist broke okay, but was caught four wide heading into the first turn. But from there on out, she gradually lost ground and never seemed to be engaged with running today. Late in the race, Prat wrapped up and brought your filly home safely.

This effort was a bit of a head-scratcher for all of us and trainer Phil D’Amato’s feedback out of the race was:

“She scoped well and cooled out well. Legs look very clean and jogs sound. Not tired at all. I will take blood tomorrow. She didn’t even run more than a 1/2 of a mile. Either the blood will show she is working on something or the humidity played a big factor. Those are the only things I can think of now.”

We will follow up with any additional updates regarding her status.
