Terra's Angel gets a break, might go in Remington Oaks

The multiple stakes winner Terra’s Angel was scheduled to return to her Lone Star Park base Thursday night after spending the past month racing at Prairie Meadows, according to co-owner and trainer Terry Eoff. Terra’s Angel won the $65,000 Panthers on June 7 at Prairie and most recently finished an uncharacteristic ninth in the Grade 3 Iowa Oaks on July 5.
“She got hit pretty hard coming out of the gate,” Eoff said. “She’s body sore pretty bad. We’re going to give her a little time off, get her back 100 percent.”
Eoff said that provided Terra’s Angel responds well, she will target the Grade 3, $200,000 Remington Park Oaks on Sept. 30. It will be the first graded running of the 1 1/16-mile stakes, won last year by champion Champagne Room.
Eoff plans to have 40 horses at Remington. He brought 18 to the track last year in his first venture to Oklahoma City.
The Panthers was the third stakes win for Terra’s Angel, who last year at 2 won turf stakes at Del Mar and Retama Park. She was a May 5 allowance winner at Lone Star. Eoff owns Terra’s Angel with Johnny Evans.
