A New Horse Joins the Stable

Previously I've discussed the chestnut filly Incredible Upside and her progress towards making the races.  This 3yo filly showed potential but ultimately injured her hind leg earlier this year and unfortunately has not yet raced.  She is currently re-cooperating in Brentwood, and I no longer have ownership interest but will update her development when she hits the track.

Recently I've acquired an interest in a 2yo filly named Blazing Reflection by Capsized out of the winning Silver Deputy mare Blazing Deputy.  She's a modest sized California bred bay filly who's currently in training at Golden Gate Fields and has already had a couple 3 furlong workouts.    She is inbred to Northern Dancer 4x5 and also has crosses of Bold Ruler, Neartic, and Raise A Native in her fifth generation.  So far it looks like she maybe a sprinter but she does have a dosage index below 3 and her "classic" points dominate her profile.  With the Northern Dancer cross she should handle the turf and her sire Capsized won the Grade II Fourstardave Handicap on the grass in the latter stages of his career.      

I'll try to put pictures up as I go to her workouts.  Barring any setbacks we hope she'll start racing in August.  Wish us luck!
