The Royal Duet - Guinevere

With the Churchill meet coming to an end following the decision to move the remainder of the meet to Ellis Park, trainer Wesley Ward opted to ship Guinevere to Saratoga to continue her training. This means both horses in our Royal Duet pair are now at "The Spa." Saratoga offers the ability to breeze on the turf and Guinevere is scheduled to work on the turf on Monday morning pending everything remains well with her.

Mo Temptation News!

Mo Temptation (by Mo Town) had her first half-mile breeze yesterday morning at San Luis Rey Downs, recording a time of 49.20. Everything continues to move forward positively as the intensity of her training increases. She will remain on a half-mile routine for a few weeks before moving onto five-eighth’s works. While it’s still early, Mo Temptation looks like a great candidate to be ready for a debut early in the Del Mar Summer meet. (Earlier photo)

Lady Blitz Update

Really nice work on Lady Blitz today, from the gate, going 4f. She breezed in tandem with Silver Ticket, a 3YO daughter of Curlin, turning in a time of 48.80 with a really nice gallop out. 

Todd Pletcher's Assistant Trainer Stu Hampson provided a follow-up saying: ..she broke sharp and went around there pretty easy" and "galloped out in 1:01 and change." He also said "all things considered it was a pretty strong work out of the gate" and that they'd like to work her again next week either from the gate or not. 

If all continues on track, expect a debut announcement for her soon at Monmouth Park or Belmont.

Lady Blitz Workout Followup 

We were able to grab a screenshot from the video of Lady Blitz's workout two days ago at Monmouth Park, which really brought home just how well she performed. She breezed from the gate leaving her work mate--a very nice grey 3YO filly by Curlin out of a Tapit daughter named Silver Ticket--in her dust. Silver Ticket was just catching up to her in this screen shot near the end of the official work, but Lady Blitz was having none of that and refused to let her pass. Silver Ticket never caught her until well into the gallop out and even then Lady Blitz never let her catch daylight. We're starting to see that maybe all the hype about this filly may not be just hype and that the work numbers don't always show the total picture. She still has a lot to learn, but we're really looking forward to her expected debut around the middle of June.

Seize the Grey Update

After galloping out of the gate yesterday, Seize the Grey had an easy morning hand-walking, and snoozing in his stall. 

Hall of Fame trainer D. Wayne Lukas remains impressed by the colt as he continues to show progression week after week. 

Seize the Grey ("Caesar") could possibly return to the work tab over the weekend, but there is no rush after visiting the gate.
