Timer Moses, a 9-year-old maiden, had a one-race career. After finishing sixth of seven in an $8,500 claiming race for maidens at Turf Paradise on Friday, Timer Moses was sold privately over the weekend, according to owner and trainer Chad Story. “He’s going to West Virginia to be a trail horse,” Story said. Timer Moses broke slowly from an inside post in Friday’s race at five furlongs. He trailed by 10 lengths early and was beaten 6 3/4 lengths as the 5-2 second choice. Rocksalot, the 2-1 favorite, won the race by a nose over 7-2 River’s Benchmark. Story said in advance of Friday’s race that the inside post would be a hindrance to Timer Moses. :: Access the most trusted data and information in horse racing!

By Mineshaft, Timer Moses had two three-furlong workouts at Turf Paradise in 2020 but did not race that year. Story said in April that Timer Moses was sidelined for legal reasons after the death of owner Anita Anderson earlier this decade. Story said last month that he acquired Timer Moses a few years ago after previous trainer Kathy Schenk retired. Timer Moses had seven workouts in 2024 before he was sidelined. He resumed workouts in January of this year. The Turf Paradise meeting ended on Saturday. Story said he sold some of his small stable and plans to give a few runners a summertime rest in Arizona before the 2026-2027 Turf Paradise meeting begins in the fall. Age was a factor in the decision to sell Timer Moses. Most tracks do not allow maidens older than 5 to race. Turf Paradise is an exception. “If it was earlier in the meet, I’d try him again,” Story said. “I don’t want to give him the summer off and bring him back.” :: Want to learn more about handicapping and wagering?
