It always nice to get a win and the competition here was as tough as some of the others too. It's definitely a step in the right direction and it was a lot better than last time out (Webster City Invite); we just need to stay healthy. |
It's nice to see Roxanne finally get her first win because she's been a good runner for us for four years. These girls are all realizing this philosophy of letting the horses take off and then tagging them later actually works. |
The girls ran well as a pack. This is by and far the best girls team I've ever had here. We just need a fifth place runner to fill that gap — it will be a good year if that happens. |
They ran good as a whole (yesterday) and ran a lot smarter. They're buying into what we're preaching in practice, which is picking people off as the race goes on. |
Thomas is a really tired kid right now, because he just back from a soccer tournament this weekend and we're trying to work with that right now. We're just battling some nagging injuries and we'll have to work through that. |
