Co-owner Curtis Larrimore told harnessracing.com Thursday morning that the 3-year-old filly trotter Snow White is on the road to recovery after undergoing throat surgery earlier this year, although he admits there is still some uncertainty as to her future.

Larrimore said the reigning Dan Patch Award winner is training well, and that although trainer Kevin Lare has heard her make some noises, he was told that was to be expected.

�The doctor told us to expect that (noise),� said Larrimore. �She�s trained down pretty good and hopefully in a couple weeks we�ll qualify her. I don�t want to go the route of additional surgery. We won�t know until we get going a little faster how she�ll respond, but she�s been training great.�

Four divisions of the Casual Breeze for sophomore filly trotters will go behind the gate at Mohawk Friday night, which would have been Snow White�s first stakes engagement of 2008 had she not been sidelined after the throat surgery.

�We knew we�d be missing the Casual Breeze and Elegantmage, but we�re shooting for the Historic (June 27 at the Meadowlands), the Delvin Miller and the first Saturday in August (Hambletonian Oaks or Hambletonian),� Larrimore said of Snow White, a daughter of Self Possessed who won 11 of 13 races last year and earned a record $1,252,646. �Hopefully everything goes well there, or wherever we go. I don�t have much good or bad to tell you; I�m just kind of in limbo until we know which we way we have to go.�
