Training:
Sat. 1/17: after 4 weather days off, riderless play three miles intermittent with rests and some fast stuff. Enthusiasm. Each horse then walk-trot a mile tack.
Sun. 1/18: Stretching out Rod under tack till he learns his stuff. 1.8 miles for him today trot-walk-gallop and he was all over the place. Art's gallop aborted after .9 miles as Nob reports the slightly sprung right rear shoe giving trouble. Both horses went riderless about 3 miles with 2 miles of it continuous snappy slow gallop.

RR-
Looks like you have some rolling hills within your training track?
I've had nothing but great results from such gallops, especially in my female racers for some reason.
We gallop up strongly, then jog down slower on the back end - where the decline section is a bit deeper and sandy. Thinly disguised interval training.
