Haven't posted in a while, but some of you may remember when I made this post about Winter Memories.
Posted: Fri Sep 03, 2010 5:38 pm Post subject: Winter Memories
Beautiful 2YO daughter of El Prado from millionaire, Memories of Silver showed above average ability in her first career start for the Phillips Racing Partnership and trainer Jimmy Toner. Keep your eye on this one. TJ
This season at Palm Meadows, I witnessed another of Jimmy Toners young fillies being brought to hand in a similar manner....only this filly could really run on the dirt. Her name is Moment In Dixie (won first out at Belmont in yesterday's 6th race) and in my opinion may be as good (if not better) on the dirt as Winter Memories turned out to be on the turf. Put this one in stable mail and watch her run through her conditions. TJ

How are you? Got that Florida tan going on? I like her too, who do you like for the Derby? I like Bodemeister a little but I think Julian will be hard to beat with Union Rags. I will key Union Rags, Bodemeister and Creative Cause using Hansen, Gemologist and Dullahan see if I can get the Super. Good to hear from you.

Hi DDT,
All's well....yesterday was a good day at Belmont for late developing fillies. In the following race Gio Ponti's 1/2 sister (by Bernstein) galloped first out over the turf course.....her name is Antonia Autumn. I think both these fillies will be heard from. Still working on the Derby... waiting till Wednesday to see the post positions before deciding. TJ

Hi Strat,
I don't think we'll see a big price on her again....she lit up the tote board yesterday. If she stays sound, she will be a good one. TJ
Hi DDT,
After the draw I will stick with Union Rags (he trained at Palm Meadows and was an impressive sight).....even though the post position may hurt him since he will be forced to break sharp and be used earlier than desired to gain position. I think Hansen and Gemologist drew well being outside in the auxiliary gate, both have speed and both can keep an eye on the other speed inside of them. Alpha is a gutsy little horse, but the post he drew has him entering the gate first, he will have to stand well while the other 18 are entered, not an easy chore for him as he's had problems being fractious in the gate. If he remains calm, he could run well. Take Charge Indy, Bodemeister and Creative Cause will be put in the mix for the gimmicks. TJ
