Your opinions on this filly, in terms of distance pedigree, stamina influences, linebreeding, etc.: CENTEROFATTRACTION (by With Approval.)
We acquired her at the Feb. mixed sale at Timonium. She had only made 3 lifetime starts, all on dirt. She was hound-gutted, ribby and sad looking, having been forgotten in a field. She does however, have perfectly beautiful feet and is very correct.
Since she's been with our trainers for the last two weeks, she's put on at least 50-75 pounds, has stopped stall weaving and cow kicking, is eating 3 squares a day, and is turned out with a companion in the mornings.
She won't be ridden for at least another 6 weeks.
We hope to have her ready for Colonial Downs in June, but you know how these things go.
For George and Bill

Hi
If she shows any talent, and you get her to the track, her profile reads like this.
7-8-1-8-3 (15/11) 1.53. Sprinter/miler type, with maybe 1 1/8th miles or a liitle more within her limits.
Good luck , and bless you for rescuing her.

For your profile. Someone at her previous farm told us she had shown some foot in workouts on the grass, so why they never even tried to race her on it is beyond us, expecially with the turf influences top and bottom. Rumor has it she was quite headstrong in training, therefore no one wanted to even try to fight with her. Instead, they forgot her.
Our trainers need to work to build up her hind end quite a bit, so long, slow hilly gallops are in her future. Jogging will help as well. It's good to know she may get 9F, at least on paper, if she gets to the races. Fillies who can go long on the lawn are a focus for us.
I've nicknamed her Dotty. She's bright copper penny red, but has a peculiar splash of white spots on her chest. Somebody thought it might have been a rash or skin ailment, and the hair grey back in white.
I'll have to get a picture of her posted, once she looks a little better. Just seeing how she's progress in only two weeks is wonderful. And she's turned out with my nasty mare, who can't be turned out with any other horses. Apparently, she has a soft spot for this little orphan, too.
