We caught up with trainer Jena Antonucci today to discuss Nakoma's status as we were hoping to see her return to the work tab this past weekend.
Jena noted that the filly has been carrying some warmth in a tendon in her left front fore and for that reason she's remained patient/conservative with her training. There is no effusion and the filly hasn't been lame, but she's likely going through some sort of physical changes that Jena is hopeful are just typical "baby stuff."
If the heat persists through this week, she'll run some additional diagnostics (I.e. ultrasound the tendon), but as of this moment Jena isn't overly concerned.
We're in no rush with the filly and will just let Jena guide her along at the pace she deems appropriate.
