This Weekend, Last Weekend and the Sales

August 11, 2014

THIS WEEKEND

The action doesn't get any hotter than this weekend as Donegal runners go for two Grade I's. 

Finnegan's Wake (who breezed well yesterday) goes Saturday in the million dollar Grade I Arlington Million. The next day O'Prado Ole goes in the Grade I Sword Dancer back here at Saratoga.

If you need tickets or hotel rooms for the Arlington Million let us know by tomorrow as we have to release any unused rooms and also arrange for tickets. Also let us know if you need tickets for the Sword Dancer in Saratoga. We do have bedrooms available through Monday at Saratoga.

LAST WEEKEND

Two Donegal runners last weekend. Culprit ran a game third after a nearly year long layoff. I expect him to win next out with that comeback race under him.

Puca made her debut at Saratoga. We knew she wanted to go longer but needed to get her started. Look for Bill Mott to send her two turns (maybe on the grass) in her next out and make some noise. She looks fantastic!

THE SALES

Donegal worked through 511 horses in Saratoga and purchased, well...nothing. Not one horse lived up to Donegal standards and so we bought nothing. Not to worry as September is coming with 4,100 horses cataloged at Keeneland. We didn't buy anything here last year either and our two year olds are pretty fair ;).

What a weekend coming up!
