  • Sysonby · if he's coming back from that long of a layoff and had a flipped palate as well, a poor performance would be all you could expect. I wouldn't call that an excuse. · 81 days ago ·

Went The Day Well returned to the worktab in late June. He breezed 4f in :48.40 (1/14) at Fair Hill on 6-23 and traveled 5f in 1:01.20 (4/16) on 6-30.
Just got beat by 3 superior horses
HIs Preakness performance was not a bounce. I hope there is nothing seriously wrong with him but that was not the same horse. Reminded me of Super Saver and that's not good. I hope he is healthy but I can't seem to find a word on his condition. He's a brilliant horse and I hope he is fit.
