PROMISING JUVENILES 750 HORSES EVACUATED FROM GULFSTREAM, OTHERS STAY PUT WITH KEESEP KIN By Bill Finley With Hurricane Irma bearing down on the Florida coast, Gulfstream officials have ordered the evacuation of the barns they felt were most vulnerable to damage from the storm. According to Bill Badgett, Jr., a member of the upper management team at the track, about 750 horses have already left the track. Trainers were given the option of either sending them to Ocala or to Palm Meadows. The barns that were evacuated were the ones closest to the backstretch entrance on Hallandale Beach Boulevard. Not only are they the oldest barns on the Gulfstream backstretch but they are in a lower-lying area than other barns are more prone to flooding. Cont. p5 (Click here)

He was a lovely foal, an expensive foal, but he went upward and onwards from foal to yearling. He was a beautiful yearling, and there was quite a bit of interest in him--he was going well and was vetted nine or 10 times. He was going to sell well, one way or the other, but it was pretty evident that when Wayne saw him first, I knew he was keen on him." O'Callaghan recalled Lukas bringing Mack and Baker to the barn to visit the colt, and the trio gave every indication that they intended to make a purchase.
