Annika was sent out months in advance to California, in the fall, to acclimate and run in the Sunshine Millions. Cerin got his hands on her, and presto-- he found problems that kept her from running. After she missed the Millions, we brought her back, gave her to Asmussen, and presto-- no more problems.
The other two fillies were shipped out right before the race, in the dead of winter.
Relax, Richie. Others with more at stake got the worst of that trip as well. And I don't blame the rider-- if one of the others had either been good or bad there would have been someplace to go.
