#2 Terrific Phoenix – January 7  :18.6 at 350 yards                                                    

Solo Work: Fly Thru The Fire gelding returns to action after an impressive rallying third in his trial to the Golden State Million Futurity. He posted this solo work in preparation for this race. He was a little antsy before the start, broke slow and shifted in. He raced greenly for the first part of the work, was going in and out for about 100 yards until settling into a nice groove and solid from there. He was under a big stranglehold at the wire and continued under a hold in his gallop out.
