Just a quick update as to what has been going on with Tech No Prisoners. She moved with Randy and his horses to Ellis Park, and Randy said that she has taken to her new surroundings very well, and did so immediately. He said that she is very happy, and has been training forwardly.
Techy has had two works since she has been at Ellis. She worked 4f on 7/27 in :50 4/5, and again yesterday, Sunday 8/3 - she worked 4f in company in :49 2/5, which was a bullet of 14. Randy said that she worked with a horse which had already won a couple of races, and worked very well, getting a little tired at the end. He was pleased with the work. She has also been to the gate a few times, and has handled it very well. She hasn't broken from the gate yet, just been loaded, closed in, and walked out.
The plan is still to get her started at Ellis. I asked Randy yesterday if he thought she would be ready by then, and he said he thought so, but said that she would tell us when she was ready.
Changing the subject, we have sold 48 of the 50 shares at this point. I want to have them all sold by the time she makes her first start. If anyone has someone interested, let them know. If we haven't sold them at that point, Nancy and I will buy the remaining two shares.
Hope to see everyone soon at the races. Contact me with any questions.
