Chatain

Postby Stevie Belmont » Fri Jan 05, 2007 5:55 pm

Runs in tomorrows Hals Hope at Gulfstream. I was impressed with this horse stride and build. He is talented and expect some good things from him. Connections are sharp and have taken thier time with him. Should be a decent price tomorrow. The expected favorites will be Sweetnorthernsaint and Strong Contender. SNS is working extermely well and the mile is right up his ally. The Florida Stakes season is underway.

Thanks for the comments

I was impressed from the fist time I saw this guy run at the Meadowlands. And I don't impress easily. Wonderful looking speciman with a long fluid stride. Popped a track record in the process. A new record, nontheless a record.

You will never see 7/1 again. Class horse from top to bottom.

They've just got to hold this horse's feet together. Is the Donn going to be next for him?

I was impressed with his win yesterday. He stalked the pace and then held off Sir Greely to win. I think the pace may have cooked Sweetnorthernsaint a little, but Trombetta said the gelding's performance was alright by him. It is going to be interesting watching the handicap division take shape over the next few months.

And Chatain campaigns in the silks of the Lazy F...Forego's colors...right on!

Well the plans were to run in the Donn next.

Just like the connections said, if he comes back good, he should be on target. See what happens.

This horse has unlimited potential. Really look foward to seeing him again. Hopefully all his ailments are a thing of the past.

What is wrong with his feet in particular?

He has had some issues with quarter cracks.
