Redaspen takes the Foxy JG in fine style
Redaspen won her first stakes race, winning the Foxy JG, a 3yo filly PA stakes race. Here is the chart (race 7). She broke on the outside, stalked the pace down the backside, got close going around the turn (again on the outside) and then took the lead in the lane and drew 1 1/2 lengths clear by the wire. An impressive performance.
Victor Molina, who gave Redaspen a confident ride (he has ridden her in all eight starts to date) was very complimentary about the condition of the filly and seems excited with her prospects for the summer. Its always good to have someone with such experience giving you positive feedback on the your horse's progress, and having the consistency of Victor's services for each of her starts.
Redaspen seems to have come out of her race in good order. We are thinking of keeping her in PA bred stakes for now, and perhaps run her back in late July.
fantastic race! congrats on a job well done!
