Royal Alibi Wins Off Layoff
May 10, 2010
In May, we shipped Royal Alibi up to Finger Lakes Racetrack to compete in a NY-bred race for three-year-old fillies. She went off as the chalk and won easily. During the race she suffered a bone chip which has since been removed at Ruffian Hospital. We expect her to heal 100% and be back in race training with Linda Rice before the end of the year.

The colt is out of Gold Tribute, sire of ten crops of racing age and producer of three champions. Gold Tribute is the son of all-time leading sire Mr. Prospector and on the colt's dam side his bloodlines include Secretariat and Kris S.
