Dear Partners,
 
High Test worked an easy
half yesterday in 49.60, 31 of 47 at the distance. Mike just wanted a maintenance work because we are waiting until the next condition book to run. Mike liked the work but High Test did bleed again, not bad but
still a concern. We have room to up the medication so we are hopeful we can get this thing under control. I will keep you posted.
 
Scott

Dear Partners,
High Test breezed a half mile yesterday at
Hollywood Park in 49.1, 22 of 29 at the distance, and Mike actually had him in 48 and change. Joe Talamo was out to breeze High Test, and Mike wanted him to go nice and easy today before the race Saturday. Joe did
just what Mike asked and let High Test relax and just cruise over the ground with his big stride. It was visually very impressive and Joe liked how High Test moved over the ground. We are all set for Saturday's race,
and we will enter Wednesday. We will send out an update after entries.

Dear Partners,
High Test had a final blowout yesterday at Hollywood Park. Joe was out for the work and High Test went a half in 49.1, 22 of 29 at the
distance. The work was exactly what Mike was looking for, something nice and easy, just to keep him sharp. Nick will be sending out an email with a video of the work. High Test's race did fill for Saturday with 9. High
Test drew the 2 hole and Talamo will be in the irons. There is plenty of speed in the race so it should favor our running style and off the layoff I would expect Joe can keep us from dropping too far out of it. I haven't
heard Mike this confident in High Test in a long time, let's hope he is right! Our race is the 7th on the card and goes off at 4:05. Being that it's Derby Day it will be crowded so if you are interested in Turf Club
seating please get back to Nick by noon tomorrow. Glad to have him back!

Dear Partners,
High Test breezed 5 furlongs yesterday at Hollywood Park in 1:00.3, 3 of 25 at the distance. High Test breezed by himself and was into stride very nicely
cruising down the backstretch. As he hit the top of the lane he kicked it into another gear and powered home striding out beautifully. He finished very strong through the wire and galloped out well. Mike was very
pleased with the work and said High Test couldn't be doing any better. He will have a blow out next week before his anticipated start on Saturday May 4th.

Dear Partners,
High Test breezed 5 furlongs yesterday at Hollywood Park in 59.3, 3 of 37 at the distance.
He breezed by himself and Ward had him into stride nicely on the backside. When he hit the top of the lane he kicked it into another gear and came home very well striding out beautifully. It was a quick time but
he still did all within himself. Mike is very happy with his progress and it looks like High Test is right on track. The Hollywood book is out and we are pointing to a first condition race on May 4th at 6 furlongs on
the main track. We are pointing to a 6 furlong race because Mike feels that going a route of ground off of a lay off would be asking too much based on his past bleeding history. The way he is training and the fact that
High Test has run his biggest numbers over Hollywood's main track we all feel High Test will have a big shot to win this race. But we do plan to stretch him out down the road. We have also secured Joe Talamo for the
race and he will be out to work High Test next week. High Test will have 2 more works before the race. On we go.

Dear Partners,
High Test breezed 5 furlongs yesterday at Hollywood Park in 1:00 flat, 3 of 25 at the distance. High Test broke off nicely from the 5/8ths pole just
cruising his way down the backstretch. As he he came around the turn and down the lane, he switched leads right on cue and was reaching out with his huge stride doing it all on his own nice and easy. He finished
strong and galloped out very well past the 5/8ths pole. Mike was very happy with the breeze because it looked so effortless, and he still went in a quick time. Mike also scoped him and High Test was completely clean,
great news! He will breeze again next week.

Dear Partners,
 
High Test worked 4 furlongs
at Hollywood Park yesterday in 47.4, 8 of 60 at the distance. I spoke with Mike and he said it was a little quicker than he would have liked but he did it all within himself. Mike said he is holding his weight and feeling good. We scoped him after the work and he was as clean as a whistle and that is with half the maximum dose of lasix. It will be Mike's job to walk the fine line with the lasix once we start asking for a little more. We don't want him to bleed of course but we don't want to pound him with lasix because it will be hard to keep the weight on. He seems to feel pretty good about where he is at right now. I'm sorry there is no video because Nick took some time off. On we go.

Dear Partners,
High Test breezed 4 furlongs yesterday at Hollywood Park. Unfortunately, there was heavy fog all morning so I was only able to see High Test for the last 1/16th of a mile. The exercise rider came back and said that he traveled very nicely throughout the work at a good
pace, much like last week. The work was not recorded because the clockers couldn't see him either. He will breeze again next week.

Dear Partners,
High Test breezed 3 furlongs yesterday officially in 37.3 and Mike had him in 36 and change. With this being his first breeze back Mike just wanted him to go nice and easy. He worked by himself and got into stride beautifully. As he came down the lane he was just skipping over the ground effortlessly like he does with that beautiful stride. He had a nice gallop out and was not tired when he came back. This was a great first breeze as Mike gets him ready for Hollywood Park. Our goal is to get High Test at least a couple of races at Hollywood Park since it has proved to be his favorite track where he has earned his best Beyer numbers. Mike scoped High Test after his breeze and he was completely clean, so on we go. He will breeze another 3/8ths on Monday.

Dear Partners,
High Test breezed 5 furlongs yesterday at Hollywood Park in 1:01.4, 24 of 47 at the distance. Mike wanted High Test to breeze another 5/8ths this week and do it very easy all within himself as we get one week closer to his anticipated start on the 17th. He was into stride nicely just cruising along and as he came into the turn he picked up the pace a little kicking it into gear. As he came down the lane both Scott and Greg talked about how beautiful his stride is as he reached out so well finishing strong. He had a good gallop out past the 5/8ths pole and didn't come back tired. He is carrying better weight than last week and looks great, so giving him a week off from breezing looks like it did him well. He will either have one more breeze or a series of long gallops leading up to his anticipated start on Saturday the 17th.

Dear Partners,
High Test did not breeze today and will not breeze again until next week. Mike feels that since we are pointing to the race on the 17th he would like to get 2 more breezes in him before that time, so he felt taking a week off this week would be a good way to spread it out while at the same time keeping a little more weight on him leading up to his race. High Test is dead fit and is doing great still jogging and galloping everyday. Mike plans to breeze him again either this coming Sunday or Monday, we will keep you updated.

Dear Partners,
High Test breezed 5 furlongs yesterday at Hollywood Park in 1:00.3, 5 of 39 at the distance. The plan was to get him another strong 5/8ths breeze to continue to maintain his fitness. He got into stride a bit slow on the backside as he does, but quickly kicked it into gear coming into the turn and started cruising. As he came home striding out beautifully like he does down the lane I couldn't help but think what great action he has as he throws his legs
out with his huge stride and is so efficient as he strikes the ground and does it again. He finished strong with a little reminder from the rider to do so, and galloped out very well. The Hollywood Park condition book came out and there is a first condition allowance race at 1 mile on the turf on Saturday November 17th. We will point to this race and if everything goes as planned he should have time for 3 more breezes before this race.

Dear Partners,

High Test breezed 5 furlongs yesterday at Hollywood Park in 1:01.3, 9 of 39 at the distance. High Test had a very solid 5/8ths work, doing exactly what we asked of him. All on his own he kicked into gear working alone and without any urging from the rider and just traveled beautifully over the ground, striding out nicely. Mike felt that having him work on the easy side today would be a good plan seeing that there was nothing written in the last Santa Anita condition book for High Test. They wrote a first condition allowance race at 1 1/8th miles on the turf, which we all feel would be too long to start him at, and they also wrote a first condition allowance at 7 furlongs on the dirt, but Mike feels that because he runs down so much on the dirt this would not be a potential spot for him. The Hollywood Park book should be out any day so there should be a race for him written in that book and then we will be able to point to a race.

Dear Partners,
High Test breezed a half mile today at Hollywood Park in 50.1. With this being his first breeze back since his last race Mike wanted him to just get out there and stretch his legs over the track. High Test worked by himself and got into stride easily just skipping over the ground like he does with his smooth stride. He came around the turn powerfully all within himself and finished strong past the wire and wanted to keep running. His gallop out was great and he didn't come back too tired. The final Santa Anita book should be out the middle of next week so we will keep you posted once we have reviewed the book.
