Title: Straight Line
Post by: Wrongly on September 06, 2006, 03:38:18 PM
To Straight Line\'s connections, nice hard fought win today.  Any thoughts on trying him on the grass again?

Thanks, gutsy performance, been kind of frustrating year, some small injuries and not many places to run in Midwest. The goal all year  has been to get back to the ACK ACK at Churchill, Breeders\'s Cup day. He won that race last year and they upped the purse to 200k. I guess plan is to find one race before that, any ideas?

Hi Huck-

I am a longtime fan of your horse and trainer (Vanier).

How about the $100,000 KY Cup Sprint (G3) on September 30 as your prep?

The Danzig line runs very well on Polytrack. Boundary is 8-36 (22% winners) over the Turfway surface.

Good luck!

Saw the first horse advertised as a potential \"polytrack\" sire in current issue of TB Times - Leroidesanimaux

\"Keeneland, Turfway, Santa Anita, Del Mar, Woodbine are all building for the future with polytrack .... are you?\"
