Lampoon Foals Straight Line Colt-Thursday June 2, 2011 Lampoon became a mother for the second time when she had a nice looking colt Memorial Day weekend at Fairberry Farm. The colt is chestnut and is by multiple stakes winner Straight Line, whose first crop of racing age will be hitting the track this year. Lampoon was bred to Posse the previous year which resulted in a filly that is now a yearling and looks very powerful in the hind end just like her mother. She will be getting 2011 off and will be bred next year. Seguro Wins In The Slop!!-Wednesday April 20, 2011After heavy rains cancelled all turf racing, Seguro took to the sloppy track with a convincing three length win Tuesday afternoon at Hawthorne Racecourse. Breaking from post position eight he settled in his normal spot in the back of the pack down the backside before unleashing a sustained wide bid and was drawing off at the wire. Seguro Loses Shoe Finishes Fourth-Thursday March 17, 2011With a speed bias working against him, Seguro used his patented late run to finish fourth yesterday at Hawthorne. It was discovered after the race he had lost his left front shoe and is not known when it came off. He returned to the barn in good shape and was walking well the following morning. Seguro Wins 2011 Debut!!!-Monday February 28, 2011With a sustained sweeping move around a full-field of twelve, Seguro made his 2011 debut a winning one last Saturday at Hawthorne Racecourse. After trailing the field down the backside, Seguro started his bid on the far-turn and continued to pick up horse after horse down the stretch with urging by jockey Eddie Perez for a one length victory. Seguro Missed It By...that much!!!-Sunday October 24, 2010Even though he wasn’t running on what is his best surface, Seguro put together a game effort on Friday to finish second by a nose at Hawthorne Racecourse. He tracked the field and while being forced wide on the turn for home, he made a strong sustained bid that fell just short and would have won with one more jump at the wire. Seguro came back to the barn in good shape and cooled out well. Let's Try This Again-Sunday August 15, 2010After a disapointing outing in his last where it was discovered that Seguro was suffering from a slight case of the colic, it’s time to make amends this Friday at Arlington Park. Since then, all bloodwork reports have come back clean and Seguro has been burying his head in the feed tub and if his last work is any indication, he looks to be ready to go. After his initial effort on the grass in his last start was more of a learning experience than anything else, Seguro will look to make amends in the eigth race this Thursday at Arlington Park. From the starting gate to the wire it never seemed that Seguro was comfortable while finishing sixth beaten only two lengths at the wire. After continuing to balk at the gate for several minutes, jockey Diego Sanchez needed to dismount before Seguro would even load. After settling at the back of the pack, Seguro made a sustained bid starting in the far-turn and was widest of all entering the top of the stretch. He continued to pick up ground on the leaders but began to veer out to the middle of the track even with a right handed whip by Sanchez. With a fourth place finish in the Springfield Stakes in his last start, Seguro will be headed for the turf this Thursday in a NW1X event for Illinois breds at Arlington Park. There is a full-field of twelve going postward with Seguro breaking from the ten hole with regular rider Diego Sanchez in the irons. After being bumped at the start and spotting the field over fourteen lengths down the backstretch, Seguro was swung wide and picked up momentum to finish fourth beaten only four lengths. Jockey Diego Sanchez said after the race that Seguro seemed a bit lazy and needed extra urging to get in the race. He came back to the barn in good shape. |
