Conditions

So we are having a hard time finding a race for Rafflesia. In horse racing the goal is to get your horse into races that give your horse the best chance of winning. You are always trying to race horses with similar conditions to increase your chances of sipping champagne and smoking cigars. The problem is that we are currently trying to run her in an allowance race for Fillies three years old or older with no more than 1 win. Being that Alberta is a relatively small market a race like this is not filling with at least five horses. This is the magic number you need to hold the race at Northlands. If we want to see our girl run we may need a change.

So we have two choices:

1- We run her under different conditions.

2- We wait and hope more horses turn up and fill the races she is currently entering.

Tim and his staff are icing Raffy's ankles and say she is dong well but she will need to race to improve her competitive edge. She is eager and ready to go we just need to find a spot for her to race.
