Crisp continues to impress the hell out of me. She is training like a monster. She acts a little nervous until she settles into her gallop and then she's a total professional. She seems to like the track fine, although we'll see how she works over it. Also saw Beautician and Champagne D'Oro this morning, both are beautiful fillies but didn't train as impressively as Crisp did. Also got a glimpse of Paddy O' Prado, who had a nice and relaxed gallop before break.

Three new horses in the barn this morning, including another "project" horse who is a total doll and really fun to ride. His name is Bold, he's a 3 y/o colt. I was cautious as always when getting on a new horse, but this one (although slightly nervous at first) was a complete professional who really listened and did as I asked. Here he is:

The other new guys are 2 y/o Value Plus babies, one a colt and one a gelding. They aren't named as of yet so we are called them Salty and Margy, after their dams. Both were lovely to ride and had nice strides. I rode Margy and Sas rode Salty:
And to tie up a lovely morning, Gem worked his second 3/8th's and not only cruised home ahead of his company but also got the bullet. So impressed with him and we are very excited about his future!Tomorrow should be a busy day, with 18 trackers and "special" training hours to allow a time slot for only Derby and Oaks horses to train. I love my job...I am so very blessed to work with these people and these horses and to get to watch the best 3 y/o's in the country train every day.
