two sapphires

WORKOUT FOR THE SAPPHIRE STAKES

NATURALLY CHARISMATIC AND SARAH STAR
SILVERIANNA AND STELLA MACKENZIE

Both fillies were really on their toes by now, Silverianna especially. The grey filly hadn't raced since January, where she'd gone up against the colts for a second in the Unicorn Horn Juvenile. Charis on the other hand hadn't run in about six weeks, after breaking her maiden on her second try. The thoroughbreds seemed to dance as they trotted along the dirt, both raring to go. They were pretty equal, in terms of just about everything. They both had impeccable breeding, both had a record of 2-1-1-0. Both extremely competitive. The only thing that set them apart was their attitudes off the track - Charis was a complete honey, while Ianna was quite fiesty, and a little mean at times. A trait from her dad, they guessed, as Bank On Silver was an absolute sweetheart.

Breaking into canter, the two horses excitement grew even more. They both leaned on the bit, fighting to stay in front of one another.
