Two in Today: Weslynn Warrior and Luvin Affection
Quote from Lonnie on August 5, 2024, 8:15 AMThis afternoon Weslynn Warrior will be making his second start for us. He was much improved last week. He's got post 2, and is listed 15-1, which doesn't make sense after last week. I expect further improvement today.
This evening, Luvin Affection makes his first start for TheStable and me. Hoping for good things from this one.

The last half was time 56 3/5ths, so his last half was faster. He finished third, losing just by 1 1/4 lengths. I'm very happy with his effort.

However, Luvin Affection rolled offstride in the first turn. I'm not sure why they started him on a half mile track when all he raced on before was Hoosier Park a 7/8th mile oval. I'm guessing that his next start will be on a 5/8ths track like Scioto Downs or The Meadows.

Just saw the replay. WW finished with authority, and I liked how he behaved weaving thru traffic in the stretch. I think he is really liking that Red Mile clay surface. Best of luck moving forward.
