Do we have anyone near Charlestown who could inquire about him?
I have asked two people. No info yet. But worth reaching out.
One thing that is good — they have a strong aftercare program there. On their website they say they only take horses that have made a start at CT (he has not) but one friend said she thinks they would help him regardless.

I would hope 2 almost starts, along with his past scratches might help, particularly since the owner/trainer persists on entering him.
Sigh!! Silipo is entered in a1-1/16 mile 28.4K Allowance race on 10/6.

Scratched again!
Please JJ_sLuckyTrain, check with your contacts again. Keeping this horse in work so that he can be entered and scratched again, and again and again, ls unfair and unintelligent. If he is at all salvageable he needs a long layup and possibly more.

Color me confused!!! Looking at results, at Charlestown, Silipo is listed as coming in 2nd.
This, when the day before had him and at least two others, marked as scratched.

From what I see, Silipo was scratched from a race on 10/6, and was 2nd on 10/7.
Ah! Missed the date change. So I assume it was a trainer scratch.
Wish I could watch a replay.

He was a stewards scratch 10/6.
You can watch a replay on CT’s website.
10/7, race 6.
No one I know knows the person who has him.

Hi everyone !
I am Alexandra Hillegass Owner/Trainer of Silipo
I was not a member of this forum page but came across it on google and felt I should post to clear the air regarding Silipo !
I would first like to say it is nice to see people who love him as much as I do .
He is happy and healthy !
And He will never be in any danger of a bad situation after racing as long as he Is in my care !

I post pics of him frequently
Charlestown offers live races and replays if you google “Live racing Charles town racetrack “
He should have won his last race (slammed on breaks out of gate was 15 lengths out of it and then circled the field on a bull ring to get beat 1 1/4 lengths )

Has anyone any info on Solvent? She posted two good w/o at 3 furlong, then a very bad one at 4 furlongs on 9/8. Since then nothing.
And a big Thank You to Alexandra Hillegass for checking in with us.

A back of the pack finish won’t buy many oats for Filipo.
