  • travel_vic · Gulfstream has been running early on the main just abou the while meeting. Any horses not closer than about 4 lengths at the 6 furlong call in routes, have not done well.....When it is wet that is even more a factor · 8 hours ago ·

  • Rossington · There's really no getting around this point in 2011. The middle distance turf horses that have been shipping over to North America from Europe are just superior to the middle distance turf horses from North America themselves. That's not a knock, just a fact. Cape Blanco, Treasure Beach, Stacelita, and now Wigmore Hall have all shipped to North America and won at least one major G1 turf stakes. In the case of Cape Blanco, he's shipping back from Ireland for a crack at his third G1 turf stakes in North America. For as good as Acclamation has been carrying the middle distance turf banner for America this season. It's difficult to see past one of the European contenders winning this year's BC Turf. · 142 days ago ·

  • Rossington · I knew that if Cape Blanco cape back into somewhere near his form of the Irish Champion Stakes that it would be very difficult for Gio Ponti to beat him in this race. Cape Blanco, at his best, is a very talented, very legitimate G1 horse for sure. This was really a nice win for Cape Blanco to add to his two G1 win's in the Irish Derby and Irish Champion Stakes. Plus his G2 Dante Stakes win over Workforce in the UK. Beating Gio Ponti in the G1 Man O' War Stakes will look really good on Cape Blanco's resume' when he finally goes to the breeding shed. I think Aidan O'Brien should send Cape Blanco next to the G1 Arlington Million while he has the horse in America. The field in the Arlington Million would be quite a bit deeper than he faced in the Man O' War today, because the Million usually draws a large European contingent, too. But seeing Cape Blanco pull 2 or 3 length's clear of Gio Ponti today at Belmont, I have no doubt that the Arlington Million would be another very winnable G1 turf stakes in America for Cape Blanco.
