Battlenote

[Nena Olson]

I love this colt! After his first two bullets on all weather, I knew he was going to be special. He debuted week 14 and won going 1 mile in 1:40.61 with a Speed Figure of 63. It was faster then the stakes race held at the track at the same distance! We worked him this week since he won't be able to race until a 3 year old and he went 5f in 1:01.3. This colt is brilliant and I hope you guys remember his name

He is now two for two, as he just won the Stable Conditions Stakes and received a SF of 62. The finishing time was 1:47:22 which I think is a good time, but I'm not sure.

Now if there were only G2/G1 races for the All Weather horses

The talented Battlenote is now a G3 winner and undefeated in 3 starts. He just won the Derby Dreams Stakes by 1 1/4 lengths with a SF of 65, in the time of 1:56.77!

Congratulations to him!!

[Alex Puderbaugh]

Definitely a very nice colt-congratulations and good luck in the future!

Battlenote is now 4 for 4!

The very talented 3yo won the White Horses Stakes by 2 1/2 lengths, going a mile in 1:40.01 and earned a career best SF of 71! This win also boosted him up to the #2 spot as top ranked 3yo AW Colts.

Now the question is... week 11 or week 12?

This lovely grey colt will be attempting to go 5 for 5 in the G2 Rain or Shine stakes on Friday! It will be his last prep before the AW Championship, so I am extremely nervous and hope it goes well. Battlenote has been nothing but awesome so far though so I do have a bit of confidence that he will do fine.

Gooo Battlenote!

[Nena Olson]

He won!

He is now 5 for 5! He won the G2 Rain or Shine Stakes by 1 3/4 lengths in the time of 1:47.22 and earned a 61 SF. Hope this was a good prep for the AW Championships. He is resting on the farm and will get a 4 week break into the race. Best of luck to Battlenote!

Congrats Janena. He is one heck of a horse.

[Nena Olson]

Well, Battlenote is on his way back to the track and entered into the AW Championships! He is coming in off of a 5f work going 1:01.22 which is his best 5f AW time, so hopefully thats a good sign!

[Bill Outsilver]

Very impressive work Janena! Best of luck in the AW Championships with him!

[Nena Olson]

Thanks!

I am so incredibly nervous, my boyfriend even keeps asking if he has raced yet haha. I also cannot wait until I can order him a headshot! At least he has a win over this distance and a win against older horses so I can breath about those. This will be his toughest race yet!

[Alex Puderbaugh]

Good luck!

[Nena Olson]

Battlenote is ending his 3yo season with a win in the AW Championships with an amazing SF of 77! He ran the 8.5f in 1.46.53 which was close to the record set by Magician of 1.46.41.

For all you Battlenote fans, you will see him as a 4yo as long as he stays healthy and sound. His goal is to get that G1 win next year! I am so proud of him!
