Continued from COVER Jouster is out of the Street Cry mare Playtime, who is a daughter of champion 2-year- old filly Storm Flag Flying and granddaughter of multiple Grade 1-winner My Flag from the family of Champion Older Mare Personal Ensign. Jouster has won three of her last four starts with the lone loss coming by a nose to Domain Expertise in the mile-and-one- sixteenth Florida Oaks (G3) on March 6 at Tampa Bay Downs. “She’s a naturally fast filly and it seems like she’s starting to settle a bit," Pletcher said. "It’s Todd Pletcher/COADY PHOTO sort of a pivotal race for us in terms of which direction we go with her. If she can handle a mile-and-an-eighth, we may look at some of those races that are a little longer. If not, we’ll cut back in distance. We’re eager to find out how she does." Eclipse Thoroughbred Partners, Joseph Graffeo, Del Toro, Eric Nikolaus and Troy Johnson’s graded-stakes winner Con Lima, a daughter of Commissioner, boasts a record of five wins and four seconds from 10 starts. Con Lima, who has made her last seven starts at Gulfstream Park, made the grade via the disqualification of Spanish Loveaffair in the Grade 3 Herecomesthebride, a mile-and-one- sixteenth turf test on Feb. 27.

Back to Top Page 11 Spotlight On: FHBPA Board Member Tom Cannell Everyone has a story about how they got into horse racing. Tom Cannell’s introduction to the sport is one you probably haven’t heard before. “My mom and I would watch the replays from Thistledown on TV,” Cannell reminisced. “It was like watching Jeopardy every night. We’d pick a number and watch the races together.” The Ohio native may not have learned as much from the recaps as he could from the iconic game show, but those early memories with his mother developed into a lifelong love of racing. Cannell went on to become a dedicated handicapper, a reporter covering Thistledown for the local paper in Canton and, eventually, a horse owner. In 2009, he was persuaded to run for the Florida HBPA Board. He has served as an Owner/Director for 11 years, and Treasurer for the last three. Earlier this year, he was elected to the Board of the Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance. “When I first joined the Board more than six years ago, it didn’t take long before I realized Tom was the director with the voice of reason,” Florida HBPA
