βThe major yearling sales are still a few months out, but to Kristin Brennan they are right around the corner. The yearling manager at Colin Brennan Bloodstock at Highlander Training Center isn't concerned because she's always dialed in.
As part of a family of horsemen, including her father Niall and brother Colin, who helms the operation at Highlander in East Texas, Kristin has literally grown up around the sport of horse racing.β

This week's @theTDN Fastest Maiden is Highlander graduate, RANGE GOAT (by Bolt d'Oro). See the race replay video in the link below.
"1. RANGE GOAT, EVD, 5/9-5th, 7 furlongs (VIDEO)
Beyer Speed Figure- 90
(c, 3, by Bolt d'OroβTaylor's Tourist, by Midshipman)
O/B-Levings Racing/Brian Levings (Ky). T-Juan Larrosa. J-Joel Dominguez.
After a couple of warmup swings, Range Goat brought his βAβ game to the course. He was a solidly beaten second at Delta in February at 7-1 odds followed by a third at 20-1 in the Lafayette Stakes in April at Evangeline, earning Beyers of 65 then 67. But last weekβboom!βhe ran off by 10 1/2 lengths on sloppy footing at odds of 1-10. Obviously, the competition wasn't stiff, but he made them look even worse." - TDN
