Summer Vacation
I am off to Cape Cod for the week, trading in trips to the track for trips to the beach. Posting will resume on Saturday, or 25 days to Saratoga, as I’m thinking of it.

One last Suffolk Downs note for the week: Reynaldo Abreu, the former Nick Zito assistant who was hired as the private trainer for the Marylou Whitney Stables in May, earned his first win today in race five at Suffolk Downs, a maiden special weight. Abreu ran Caged Glory, a three-year-old filly making her fifth start. She won easily by more than 13 lengths, with jockey Winston Thompson sitting almost motionless throughout the race, except for a quick look back at the rapidly fading competition in the stretch.
