Navy Wings Wins 16K Claimer

[PICSIX]

I want to thank Tom & Lisa Schell for the great job (hands on) they did preparing Navy for his race today! What an exciting finish and perfect ride by Pedro! Hope this is the 1st of many wins to come.

Thanks,

Thought I placed this in "General Racing Discussion"..........sorry.

[Helles]

JonHanover thanks them too! Nice hit.

[PICSIX]

Any figure makers in the house? The interior fractions and final time of this race are extremely fast in comparison to other turf races this weekend. As it stands, now, the Beyer figure is an 82. That seems low to me, but I'm biased.

Thanks,

Mike

[Beachbabe]

Congrats Mike.
Nice time for 16k claimers. Good luck with him going forward.

[CryingForTheHorses]

No, we don't own Navy Nurse. Currently, we own Three Part Harmony, Bruce N Autumn & Navy Wings. All are at Calder & are trained by Tom Schell (McSchell Racing).

What a month we have had in the barn.Winning 7 out of 9 is astounding!..Funny how the people give the trainer a pat on the back for their horses victories.When in reality its the horse that does the running.All we can do is look after them the best we can.Congrats to you Mike,Navy is a keeper!..Owners like you come around once in a lifetime.Here is a pic of him yesterday morning out for his walk after his race.Have to give Pedro Monterrey a big congrats also He is a very good rider and is very underrated.He listens to instructions to a tee.We may have the highest trainer/Jock percentage in the nation.

[Beachbabe]

Congrats to both you guys.
7 for 9 is a very nice record. Watch out, you may be labeled the new "supertrainer". ;)

[PaceAdvantage]

Watch out, you may be labeled the new "supertrainer". ;)I was just thinking the same thing! :lol:

Very impressive run, congrats Tom.

Wow... Glad I clicked on this thread... Congratulations on a fantastic streak!

Navy Wings was claimed for 10k at GP, McSchell now has a two race winning streak with him on the Calder turf, for 16k, and Allowance Optional Claiming 16k, and Beyers of 80, and 83, in back to back races! :)

[Si2see]

The otb in Richmond, VA sounded like being live at the kentucky derby when Sweet Bourbon won her comeback race. We are lucky to be along for the ride. Thanks Tom , Lisa and especially the horses !!

[CryingForTheHorses]

Navy Wings winning on july 6.He is a awesome guy!

[lamboguy]

good job tom, but don't be afraid to take the credit on your good run. we both know that bad trainers don't win, you are doing a great job down therefor years. you even did a great job with a maiden last year.

McShell-

Isn't there an additional bonus from the Illinois breeders fund for him winning two open co. races?

[CryingForTheHorses]

McShell-

Isn't there an additional bonus from the Illinois breeders fund for him winning two open co. races?

He doesnt get any extra florida bred money here.I dont think he would get anything from the fund in ILL as he isnt on their turf course or runing in their state where he was bred.

[lamboguy]

i get a check from the state of kentucky and louisiana breeders funds that don't run in their states at all.

never had an illinois bred though.

[tbwinner]

McShell-

Isn't there an additional bonus from the Illinois breeders fund for him winning two open co. races?

Any breeder fund bonus would go to the listed breeder rather than current owner of the horse anyway. If the horse was running in Illinois he'd be eligible for 40-60% additional purse money for owner awards and 11.5% to the breeder for purse money here. For sure wins in Florida don't get any owner bonuses and pretty sure the listed breeders doesn't either.

Below is how Florida does it, Kentucky allows for horses that race in the USA to get breeders awards as long as they race in eligible races.
2011 Florida-Bred Breeders' Awards


Under the current plan, beginning in January 2011, Breeders’ Awards will be paid to the breeder of a Florida-bred registered with the FTBOA that finishes in first, second or third place in a race at a Florida Thoroughbred track as follows:

1st place—Ten percent of the announced gross purse, less any Florida Owners’ Awards included therein, with each such Breeders’ Award limited to no more than $10,000;
2nd place—Three percent of the announced gross purse, less any Florida Owners’ Awards included therein, with each such Breeders’ Award limited to no more than $3,000; and
3rd place—Two percent of the announced gross purse, less any Florida Owners’ Awards included therein, with each such Breeders’ limited to no more than $1,500.

Nice Job (Tom, Lisa & Pedro) with Sweet Bourbon today!!! Congratulations on being named, "Barn of the Month!" This is a great accomplishment, IMO, for a 7-8 horse barn. You should be proud of your hard work!! :ThmbUp: :ThmbUp:

[CryingForTheHorses]

Here you go Mike.The pic that every owner strives for.Thanks again..

[PICSIX]

Navy Wings is entered in the 7th at Laurel Park today. He is now owned by Midwest Thoroughbreds and trained my Jamie Ness :( . IMO there's not any speed to set it up for him....who knows, with the new connections he may go wire to wire. :rolleyes:

I hope he has a safe trip and returns from the race sound :ThmbUp:

[PICSIX]

He got up at the wire. I'm happy for the horse :)

[PICSIX]

In today's 7th at Laurel....#5.

[Stillriledup]

GO WINGS!

I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly
I'll do what it takes til' I touch the sky!!

[PICSIX]

Did the new connections not study one ounce of film? Had Navy up way too close to the early pace and tried coming up the rail with him....he absolutely hates having horses to his outside!! :bang: :bang: :confused: :confused:
