What the Horse Racing Nation is talking about...

We saw three Kentucky Derby preps run last weekend with the Eclipse Award winning 2YO of 2009 returning in style, an emerging speedballer in California winning, and a resilient colt proving he has a “never say die” attitude at Tampa.  Let’s take a look at the updated Top 10 in my Derby Countdow...Read More
In the past seven graded Triple Crown preps contested at Oaklawn, five have contained at least one starter based on the California synthetic tracks. Of those five Oaklawn invasions, the West Coasters own four wins and a second-place finish. Keep that in mind as you analyze Saturday's Rebel and recal...Read More
While the top four stayed the same, there were some interesting developments in the Paulick Derby Index brought to you by Vinery LTD. The most obvious was Awesome Act’s giant leap to number nine in our poll. Last week, the British invader did not receive a single vote from our 29-vote panel. While A...Read More
Well it’s been a month and many of the top Kentucky Derby prospects have run, some have left the trail, and more have emerged.  Here’s my most recent Derby Countdown.  Each Tuesday leading up to the Kentucky Derby I’ll go through my Top 10 Kentucky Derby prospects, starting with this week....Read More
Times are tough all over for horse racing. And nowhere are they tougher than in New York, where the same troubles besetting the industry everywhere - declining interest and investment in the game, and a stalled economy - have combined with a dysfunctional state government to present what some consid...Read More
This post will cover the winners of the Gotham and Sham Stakes as well as a new contender for the 2010 Queen's Plate by the name of Captain Canuck. I was well pleased with my handicapping of the Gotham Stakes. After correctly tossing out the horses coming out of the oddly run Whirlaway Stakes...Read More
The top three finishers from Saturday's Gotham S. (G3) -- AWESOME ACT (Awesome Again), YAWANNA TWIST (Yonaguska) and NACHO FRIEND (Friends Lake), respectively -- could all square off once again at Aqueduct in the April 3 Wood Memorial S. (G1). Gotham winner Awesome Act was bright and energetic in hi...Read More
Kentucky Derby watchers everywhere have passed the point of no return.  Inside of eight weeks, it is put up or shut up time.  Connections and horses are now in full scramble mode to prove that they have what it takes to make a serious run for the roses. Yesterday we saw impressive runs...Read More
GOTHAM QUOTES     Jeremy Noseda, winning trainer of Awesome Act (No. 4): “He handled the dirt today. You would think a horse by Awesome Again would handle the dirt. For the first time, it’s all we could ask for. He’s a horse that is reminding me all the time of [2004 Breeders’ Cup Juvenile...Read More
Nice race by Awesome Act and great ride by Leparoux to take the Gotham. Here comes the hype on this one...
A diverse field of ten 3-year-olds, ranging from a recent maiden winner to the first three finishers in the Whirlaway to an English colt who last ran in the Breeders’ Cup, look to take the next step in their careers Saturday at Aqueduct Racetrack in the 58th running of the Grade 3, $250,000 Gotham ...Read More
There are so many top 3-year-olds who still have questions to answer it makes it tough to come up with a list of 12 horses each week that you’re perfectly happy with.   There are always going to be horses you’d love to include who just haven’t done quite enough to warrant supplanting the more a...Read More
All of a sudden the Derby Trail just got a whole lot downer and derbier with several important preps being run yesterday. The theme of the day was Mr. Todd Pletcher, who scored with three Derby prep wins, topped by a scintilating score by Eskendereya. All of yesterday's preps...Read More
  • wickedstyle · Enjoyed the read - I was somewhat surprised to see you put Eskendereya at #2, not that I disagree after the FOY, but it still surprised me. No Vale of York? Just a Cali fluke? And also no love for Discreetly Mine? · 22 days ago
  • cigar · Eskendereya's Fountain of Youth is by the far the best performance any 3-year-old has put on the track this year. He should be #1. · 21 days ago
Jeremy Noseda is eyeing a crack at the Kentucky Derby with his exciting prospect Awesome Act. The three-year-old finished a close-up fourth in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile at Santa Anita in November as he is now set to head back to America with a view to a tilt at the 'Run For The Roses'. "I am happy ...Read More
Ran a decent 4th in BC Juv Turf. Noseda is going to run him over poly and if decent he could come for the Gotham.
A quiet week at Down and Derby Central with no changes among my Top 20. Things will change next week with considerable action, highlighted by the first major prep in California, the Robert B. Lewis Stakes. Expected entrants include American Lion, Tiz Chrome, Hawaiian Springs, Dave In Dixie, and Cara...Read More
Blind Luck, the runner-up in voting for 2-year-old filly champion, has been nominated to the Triple Crown, though trainer Jerry Hollendorfer said Tuesday that he has no plans “at this time” to run her against colts. "But I wouldn't rule it out," he added.Read More
Less than 100 day to go until Derby Delirium. The Derby trail officially began in earnest today with thr Lecomte at the Fair Grounds and the Holy Bull at Gulfstream Park, where no less than four of the participants appear in the top half of this week's Down and Derby Top 20...Read More
