Like everyone else with horses stabled at Santa Anita Park, West Point Thoroughbred CEO Terry Finley is eagerly awaiting the March 29 resumption of racing at the beleaguered Arcadia, Calif., racetrack and hoping for a safe and peaceful weekend.
Surgery to repair a condylar fracture that sidelined top 3-year-old Gunmetal Gray went smoothly but the horse's prognosis for returning to competition is a long way from certain.
West Point had a highly memorable week filled with two runners in Triple Crown preps at Oaklawn Park March 16 and a spending spree earlier in the week at the OBS 2-Year-Olds in Training Sale that included taking home the $2 million sale topper.
With the racing at Santa Anita Park suspended and the influential San Felipe Stakes (G2) canceled, Oaklawn Park's Rebel Stakes (G2) March 16 emerged as California's backup plan on the road to the Kentucky Derby Presented by Woodford Reserve (G1).
