About Ed Hess
Expertise
Have trained thoroughbreds for 30 odd years. Have been a licensed trainer for that long of time. I continue to train my race horses and thoroughly enjoy every day.

Experience

Experience: Licensed trainer for over 30 yrs. Have had lots of winners in all different types of races - from bottom claimers to top quality stakes winners. My best money winner was Aristocratic Cross (multiple stakes winner). My best claiming horse was Navajo Family, winner of 12 races in one year. I still enjoy racing a modest stable of horses each year.

Subject: urgent filly race stakes

Question
hi i have a 2 years filly in mexico, Pat kaut this saturday works 7 furlong its very tired, 30 september she will race a stakes in 7 furlongs i have 3 weeks to train her, she ran 31 August 7 furlong, she came last, horrible ride, started first, finished last. How should i train her to make a good race...

Answer
hi well i am not sure why she was tired after the 7 fur  work out???   and you said she raced 7 fur  started first  ran last  but a awful ride. have you checked her breathing???  not knowing your fillie. it would be hard to tell you why she is not working or running well. does she run with blinkers?? 2 yrs old do get shin problems and also have polips in their throat sometimes. i would have your vet check her for those 2 things to see if she has any problems. some fillies do not like a lot of training and will run better with a mild training program. i have mentioned a few things for you to check on  hope this helps you  thanks ED HESS
