There are few horses as wonderfully consistent as Boudoir, a 4yo allowance filly running at the Arlington/Hawthorn circuit. I have a soft spot for the racing up there with Bluesbdancing (who is one of my absolute favourites) and Battle Amour running successfully up there as well. All three of those share the same broodmare sire: Thirty Six Red.
In race 4 at Arlington, Boudoir ran her 10th race yesterday and celebrated with the 5th win of her career. She did it well too, especially considered that she hit the gate on the way out. In fact, by the quarter pole she was trailing six lengths behind. However, she was plenty game enough and closed strongly to lead in the stretch. She won by 5 lengths in the end, finishing full of run.
It was her first race since November and it looks like she is better than ever. There certainly should be a minor stakes race in her future. She might meet Bluesbdancing along the way!
Boudoir is owned by her breeder Dede McGehee and trained by James Gulick.
