A check in with the DMR trials fastest two-year-olds of 2025

The moral of this story is, if you have a yearling or a two-year-old and it’s not the fastest, not even the third fastest, do not panic. The best two- and three-year-olds in the game over the years have never been the fastest workers at the DMR Trials, in fact many of our best were just good workers for a long time. So, as we come to a New Year don’t start killing off your good workers and keep those superstar workers, just give them a little time.
