Conquest outlaw, the horse that beat Mighty Sky in his first race ($32,000 maiden claimer) is entered in an allowance race Sunday at Woodbine. So, if Conquest Outlaw is good enough to race in an allowance race, then Mighty Sky should be good enough for MSW races. In their first race (Conquest Outlaw's second), Mighty Sky went off at 7 to 2 odds whereas Conquest Outlaw was 15 to 1. Mighty Sky was claimed. Conquest Outlaw was not claimed.

Anyway, hope to see Mighty Sky in a MSW race soon.

I have a bad feeling about this. Mighty Sky has not had a public work since his last race on 5/31/14. It looks like he might have been injured in his last race or sometime later. Otherwise, I think we would have seen a work out by now. Just hope that he is OK and whatever is keeping him from the track is nothing very serious.

Another Casse/Oxley colt that was claimed in his first race is a 2YO named Sky Heart. He was claimed for 80K by trainer John Saddler for the Hronis Racing Stable on 8/7. The race was at Del Mar. Sky Heart is bred similarly to top Casse/Oxley colts Skyway, Sky Captain, and Dynamic Sky, being inbred to Mr. P 4x4 (a very popular cross) with the same sire (Sky Mesa) and is inbred to Northern Dancer 4/5/7 (same as Dynamic Sky). His works were not particularly impressive, so the stable, who tried to sell him as a yearling (37K RNA) got 80K for him with the claim.

Maybe his new stable should try him on grass. It seems to have worked for Dynamic Sky (3rd and 2nd in first 2 races on grass in races that were graded stakes).
