Weekend update
Fresh from his 1500 career wins milestone earlier this week, Mike Stidham sends out four runners over the next three days, including Indygo Bo in a listed stake at Remington Park.
Owner Mark Breen’s two-year-old son of Indygo Shiner is one of six to line up tomorrow in the $50,000 Razorback Futurity, over six furlongs. Stidham’s runner is the early morning line 1/2 favorite, but he looks like he might have a scrap on his hands out there in Oklahoma – All Aboard, next in the betting, is coming off a nice maiden win at Keeneland last time out. Discount Indygo Bo’s run last time out though, when a slow start prevented him from getting into contention. This looks a fine opportunity to get back into winning ways, and jockey M C Berry takes the mount.
Stidham’s other three runners this weekend can all be found at Churchill Downs: Sounds of Freedom today, lovely Liz Pendens tomorrow and Alyczara on Sunday.
Check back in again next week for a round-up of the weekend action.
