Trainers Steve Asmussen and Jayde Gelner sent a couple of stakes winners to the track Wednesday morning in preparation for the upcoming Remington Park Thoroughbred Season that begins Friday, Aug. 8.
Asmussen, the 18-time training title winner at Remington Park and all-time conditioner in the history of the game, had Glee on the track, while Gelner worked Ghost Hero. Both worked handily at the half-mile distance on the work tab. Wednesday morning training took place over a fast track, under sunny skies with temperatures ranging from the high-70s to low-80s.
Glee is a 3-year-old Texas-bred filly by Honor A.P., out of the Bluegrass Cat mare Red Tabby and is a multiple stakes winner. Glee was a two-time winner of black-type races last year at Remington Park, taking the E.L. Gaylord Memorial Stakes by 15-1/2 lengths on Sept. 29 and the Toby Keith Stakes by 10-3/4 lengths on Dec. 13.
