Today’s Topic: A nice workout with the addition of blinkers can indicate a
turnaround in performance in the afternoon.

Equipment changes accompanying good drills in the morning can lead to
improved efforts in a horse’s next race. Entered in the 4TH race on January 14
at Aqueduct, PARISIANA (Mutakddim) had a recent workout with blinkers on for the
first time. She won strongly and paid $11.

As reported in HR’s Daily Clocker’s Report:


PARISIANA
BEL 12/17/04 B FT 36.3B


Wore blinkers, and looked
good thru the stretch. Got to wire in 36/4, and galloped out well in
49/2. Looked good finishing.
