Well, PRIDE AND JOY (Frisco View-Onager by Al Khawaneeg) showed her stuff by beating a mature field of imported runners at the Santa Ana Park also last Thursday. She was the crowd favorite and she did'nt disappoint.
She ran the 1500 meter distance in 19 24' 24 26'= 1:34 besting VIRGINIA, ARCTIC DESERT and other 4 year olds.. Remember that this horse is just 2 years going 3 yeards old in September...According to jockey Antonio Alcasid Jr., she was still a bit green in running and hopefully, she will improve in the next few weeks... In 6 starts, she won once, placed second once and , placed third also once...She's really earning her keep.
We'll change her training regimen and give her a longer distance capability..No question about her fighting heart, she will be a tough horse to beat when she campaigns on her third year...
Thank you, PRIDE AND JOY...
