Time to try dirt

Dave Shields · Post by **Dave Shields** » 17 years ago

Well I am not familiar with the Sire or Mare, but I am going to take a guess at saying you might try the horse on dirt. Although most of the blood seems to be turf, there is also dirt in there. Couldn't hurt to try.

Also, maybe drop back on the distance if you try the dirt. Like 1 1/16m or 1m. I would lay off the equipment, try to start clean as that might help with seeing how the horse takes to dirt.

Good Luck with him!

Personally, I think you're in the right direction with his next race. I'd try 1 1/4 miles. The pedigree really doesn't say dirt to me. The only other thing I might try is, in addition to the lasix, a tongue tie.
