LOUISVILLE, Ky. – Rudy Brisset is taking the good with the bad. The 35-year-old trainer was nearly giddy with the way Quip performed last week when second in the Stephen Foster at Churchill Downs, but he’s also saddened by the recent loss of one of his stable stars, My Majestic Rose. “I was extremely happy,” Brisset said of the way Quip fought to the bitter end in his neck defeat to Seeking the Soul in the June 15 Foster. “I thought he had it, actually. But he did nothing wrong. It was the first time he faced those really good older horses. It was a Grade 2 on paper, but really I think it was like a Grade 1.” Quip, who earned a career-high 104 Beyer Speed Figure in the Foster, is back in training at Keeneland and will soon migrate to Saratoga, where Brisset will take his best runners ahead of a meet that starts July 11. Either the Aug. 3 Whitney at Saratoga or the Aug. 17 Pacific Classic at Del Mar will be the next start for the 4-year-old colt, said Brisset. Unfortunately, the Saratoga contingent will not include My Majestic Rose, who was euthanized from injuries suffered to her left hind leg when training June 11 at Keeneland. “It was a freak accident,” said Brisset. “She pulled up at the quarter pole and we weren’t able to save her. She had never done anything wrong, never missed an oat. It’s always difficult when you lose one, but when you lose a horse like her, it’s very, very tough. I didn’t see this coming at all.” My Majestic Rose, a 3-year-old filly bred and owned by Judy Hicks, won a maiden race at Churchill on May 2, then won the Grade 2 Summertime Oaks at Santa Anita on May 26 in her final start. Brisset, who opened his own stable in April 2017 after a lengthy tenure as an assistant to Hall of Fame trainer Bill Mott, is dealing with other setbacks of a far less drastic nature. Stakes runners Preamble and Positive Spirit have been turned out until late summer, while Talk Veuve to Me has breezed twice at Keeneland since undergoing surgery for an entrapped epiglottis following a poor finish in the May 4 Humana Distaff. Brisset said Talk Veuve to Me might be ready to run again in the Grade 3 Chicago Handicap next Saturday at Arlington, “and if not, she would probably run at Saratoga.” A recent returnee to the barn was the 3-year-old filly Violencia, whose lone start resulted in an 88 Beyer when she won a maiden sprint on the Feb. 2 Holy Bull undercard at Gulfstream Park. “She almost ran too fast for her own good,” said Brisset. “We had to give her some time afterward, no surgery. She’ll go with us to Saratoga and we will look for a race for her at the end of the meet or maybe at Belmont soon after. We think she is a very good horse.”
