Escape Clause, a $5,000.00 yearling from Manitoba is in to go in the Ogden Phipps and here’s hoping she gets the job done.
She finished 4th of 5 after showing some good early speed. But I bet her owner had a blast regardless (and she still earned him a nice chunk of change.)
She has raced and traveled a ton. And stayed sound, and a trier. I love her. After her initial narrow loss to Midnight Bisou I was hoping for a closer race in the Phipps, but she sure has proven herself already.
Plus her breeders are very supportive of TB aftercare (and horse welfare in general) - I am happy for them to have bred such a nice horse.
She is something for out here - they HAD to travel with her since she ran out of competition in 4 provinces
