Training

The Midshipman return race was entertaining. 9-5 co-favorites Midshipman and Just Ben in tandem most of the race through blazing sub :45 fractions with "on the muscle" Just Ben according Durkin. Just Ben giving zero understanding of going toe to toe with the Breeder's Cup champ, lol! Midshipman won floating out. Maybe with a little more Just Ben stamina training, and Godolphin might have been eating his dust. I should check who that Just Ben trainer was! Oh my, Barclay Tagg.
Training:
Wed. 9/16. Both horses are off. Art with a swollen left hind.

Thurs. 9/17: Rod in prep for speed work friday slow gallops: .8(.21)+.8(.18)+.8(.18).
Art's leg has ballooned up again despite the antibiotic, but Fri. morn its on the improve again.
