Chase has been making the rounds to a number of stables during his racing career, but he's landed back with NDM. We had some difficulty with him before, but with a new racing trainer here, we're eyeing him up for a fresh new foundation. He's been maturing while he's been away from us this past approximate year, so we're looking forward to moving forward with him. He's still as mischievous as he ever was, but this time he's got some studdish overconfidence going on, which has strengthened his antics. We're prepared for him though, with extra reinforced fencing and water buckets. It's lovely to see this copper stallion back among the green grasses of NDM, his random gallops with each gust of wind give everyone around a nice spectacle.
LEG TYPE: PRECEDER
This boy is still muscling around his trainers, but he seems happier about it, with a fuller will to go when asked. He's filled out wonderfully into a senior racer, we think he's finding himself now. The gate is super fun with him - he always puts up a fuss. Even though it takes a few tries to get him in, he usually ends up cracking everybody up by doing or squealing something hilarious. He remains a nice preceder, breaking well from the gate. He dislikes leading, so if he finds himself at the front, he'll pull a very sluggish pace, inviting any other preceders or mid-runners to get ahead by choice, or by surprise, so he can settle behind a pace horse.
We've stretched him out to the twelve furlong length, as he does much better the more room he has to go. He doesn't like being squished in a race, he'll avoid being too near more than one or two other racers. Fun is of the utmost important for Chasing The Sun, if his jockey becomes too serious he can suck back and hollow out. The more upbeat and happy his rider is, the better in tune he is with himself and with the track. We're finding he has a much better knack for knowing when it's time to pour on the last bit of energy in the last furlong. With a bit more fine tuning, this stallion has a bright future ahead of him.
