Churchill runner!

Dogwood Stable owns a 3yo colt named Stan the Man, by Grand Slam out of Vivalita. My mare Vivid Dreams is his older half-sis by Housebuster. He is entered at Churchill on Sunday 5-14, 6th race, PP#7. He needs rooters! Naturally I'd love to have a talented runner on my mare's catalog page under my mare's dam.

I've been involved in four Dogwood partnerships over the years, but the last one was in 2000.

I'll root for you and maybe try to help Stan the Man along for you. :wink:

Next mare is up in the barn and due to foal, so I can't PROMISE, but I'll try to head over there tomorrow and get a pic of him for you.

Stan the Man stumbled out of the gate, pressed the pace, and tired to finish 5th in maiden special company at Churchill. Hopefully he'll overcome some of these "beginner" problems soon, and start to respond to the jockey's wishes.

He'll learn, you will see. Was this his first race?

I'm pretty sure it was his second start, Ben.
