TWO YEARS OLDS OF 2013
We started in January of 2013 with fourteen Two Year Olds and acquired an additional two during the summer. In June we knew four of them were not going to run until they were three. We ran the remaining twelve of the sixteen with two of the twelve only making one start. Of the remaining ten, five broke their maidens (four in maiden special) and one (MISTER POLLARD) winning and placing in Stakes Races with earnings of $128,584 and is one of the leading contenders for Indiana Bred Two Year Old Colt for 2013. The total earnings for the 2013 Two Year Olds were $294,684. We have higher hopes for them as next years three year olds.
REVIEW OF 2013
According to the Equibase Trainer Statistics, Mike was ranked 155th out of over 6600 trainers in North America, with 46 wins and purse money totaling $1,339,320. Six of the wins were in Stakes Races, two seconds and five thirds. On July 17th the stable had its biggest single day of racing winning three stakes and over $225,000 in purse money. We had set our goal at 50 wins and $1.5 in purse money for 2013 and got close. We will once again shoot for those goals in 2014.
Another major highlight of 2013 was when homebred DREAMIN BIG won her second stakes win of the year at TurfwayPark on December 7th in the Holiday Inaugural, fillies and mares going three quarters. She has won over a $522,000 in total lifetime earnings.
Many thanks go out to our employees at the track and at the farm and to our owners who entrust us with their horses which makes this all possible.
We are going to run a few at Turfway Park over the winter, but mostly we will be at Oaklawn Park in Hot Springs, Arkansas. It is a great little spot and you should come down sometime this meet, especially if you have never been. The weather is a good month ahead of Louisville and for the most part very pleasant. Racing is good and there is plenty to do in town. Fishing is exceptional.
