Tamara 'about six weeks' away from return
?q=100)
ARCADIA, Calif. – Tamara, the Beholder filly who scored a dazzling victory in the Grade 1 Del Mar Debutante before misfiring as the favorite in the Grade 1 Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies, is scheduled to work three furlongs this week and could be ready for a comeback in early June.
“She’s doing great,” trainer Richard Mandella said Monday. “She’s had two little quarters; she’s going to go three-eighths this week.” Tamara worked a quarter-mile April 4 in 25.20 seconds, and April 10 in 23.80.
Tamara came out of her seventh-place finish in the Breeders’ Cup with a splint injury that healed without surgery. “She’s coming along great,” Mandella emphasized, adding he expects her to be ready in “about six weeks.” Sired by Bolt d’Oro, Tamara has won two of three starts for owner-breeder Spendthrift Farm.
