While Movement is enjoying some R&R at what I can only assume is a 5 star resort given the day rate they're charging, I have dipped into the owners account once more. On August 18th we claimed Super Likit (pictured left with budding horseman Troy Thomas) out of a 4k condition claimer where the filly finished a game 2nd. I'm blessed to be in partnership with long time owner BJ, and first time owner Alex--great gentlemen, both. BJ, or Bob James as you'll see him listed regularly in the past performances, is one of the most enthusiastic owners you could ever meet. The long time racehorse owner brings a wonderfully contagious energy and lust for the game every time he graces the grandstand.
Alex too has a history with horses, growing up in Northern England where he took in days at the races at Doncaster Racecourse. I got to know Alex shortly after moving to the west coast, and I have been pestering him furiously for years to go in on a horse with me. It wont be long now before I find out if he curses my name or sings my praises for railroading him into this shaky endeavor.
Super Likit is entered in the 2nd race on Friday at Bay Meadows. She drew the 4 hole and will be adding blinkers in the five and one half furlong affair to be contested over the main track.
