Sat. 4/25 (continued from page 3).......
Frosted just went 5/8ths at Palm Meadows covering the distance in 1:01.10. A solid move picking up speed along the way, going in splits of 12.85, 24.92, 36.74 and out 3/4's in 1:14.53.
Upstart also breezed at Palm Meadows going 5/8ths in 59.97, splits of 12.67, 24.46 and 48.01....strong finish
Keen Ice on the track with Tammy Fox getting ready to go.....
Keen Ice went 5/8ths in 1:02.04 with splits of 23.93, 48.80, 1:02.04, out in 1:16.05. Nice steady move. Tammy Fox has been Dale Roman's long time life partner.
El Kabeir very impressive working a 1/2 at Belmont Park in 46.4, with splits of 23.2, 46.4 out a strong 5/8ths in 58.4......
Firing Line worked an easy 5/8ths at SA under Gary Stevens going 1:02.1 galloped out 3/4's in 1:15. A simple maintenance work with Stevens never asking him for speed.
Dortmund followed suit going an easy 5/8ths at SA with Martin Garcia in the stirrups. He went the 5/8ths in 1:01 and galloped out 3/4's in 1:13.60. Just another easy maintenance breeze.
I think we're just about done with the major works (other then some short blowouts or two minute licks during the week)....just waiting to hear what Mubtaahij is up to? Mike de Kock said if he goes with that American horse he will run last. He said he will have him settle back off the Derby pace and make a run.
