SHILLELAGH BACK ON TRACK

Champion 3-year-old colt in Canada SHILLELAGH SLEW opened his lungs a bit with his first prep of the year at Palm Meadows. The son of Chief Seattle worked an easy 3 furlongs in :38 2/5, his first workout since undergoing ankle surgery last fall.
It is expected that every one of last year’s champion runners in Canada will be racing in 2007.

EDENWOLD 5TH

He runs his races a weird way now but EDENWOLD was a reasonable 5th behind star colt LAWYER RON in an allowance race at Gulfstream yesterday. The colt broke sharply but then dropped way back before closing mildly. Maybe the Plate winner needs a set of blinkers to get him more motivated?
