GRAND PRAIRIE, Texas - Plans for Storm Mesa are reset. After being considered probable for the Delaware Oaks, she is instead headed to Prairie Meadows for her next start in a decision reached Thursday, said her trainer, Bret Calhoun.
"We changed gears and we're going to the Iowa Oaks," he said.
Calhoun said travel arrangements factored into the decision. He said a flight could be secured to Prairie Meadows, but not to Delaware Park. Calhoun said he also believes Storm Mesa will handle the Prairie Meadows surface better than she would the main track at Delaware.
