Wednesday Rainout

I don't have much to report this week with In Over My Head. We had planned to qualify on Wednesday down at Balmoral, but Mother Nature had other ideas. Shortly before it was his time to hit the track, the track was hit with an extended heavy rain. The decision was made to not risk Mo on a sloppy, slick track at this point so we will just wait a little longer. What's another week after waiting 20 months, right?

Luckily, the day wasn't a total loss. Once the rain cleared and the track got a bit better, Mo got a good trianing mile in and he was excellent. More reason for hope.

The plan now is to try again on Wednesday. Early weather report looks good and since the predictions of weather are never wrong, we are feeling pretty good.

Stay tuned for more updates. I noticed that my hit count was up last week and I think it was due to a link on barntowire.com. Thanks to all of those interested in In Over My Head's comeback attempt!

Overview

Many people have asked me what it's like to own a racehorse. This blog is a play by play of one horse in particular. A three year old colt named In Over My Head that I own with my uncle...and although he doesn't have any dollars invested, my cousin is about as emotionally invested as humanly possible. It could end up being a story of success or failure, but if he's like all the others I've owned, it will no doubt be a roller coaster ride.
