What the Horse Racing Nation is saying about Bet Twice...

I’ll Have Another will try to become the first Triple Crown winner since Affirmed in 1978 when he runs in the Belmont Stakes on Saturday, June 9. Since Spectacular Bid in 1979, eleven 3-year-olds have won the Kentucky Derby and Preakness only to fail in their Triple Crown quest at Belmont Park. Spec...Read More

  • AnnaK · Would love a Triple Crown, mostly because it would pull people in to the races, (already started I like to think), plus IHA is such a strong red engine and Mario is excellent, that it just might be. Can't see Dullahan doing it, 27 in the last q good to know, that fancy inefficient leg work, so IHA and UR and anyone else can duke it out. · 4 days ago ·

  • cocoa2 · Icy, Dullahan is the best Allowance horse I have ever seen, especially since he has won graded stakes. Or was I not to take you literally? · 4 days ago ·

Another one who is nowhere near being in the Top 100, but a nice horse.
Say what you will about how the pace unfolded in yesterday’s Super Derby, but one thing you cannot deny is that the winner is a horse on a roll … and a Derby roll at that. Undefeated now in four starts in 2011, Prayer For Relief first jumped on the Derby train with a win in Prairie Meadows’ Iowa Der...Read More

  • DeadHeat · He has not overly impressed me. It is easy to rack up wins when the competition you face is so inferior to you. I'm glad he is taking his game to a new level, but I don't see him hitting the board in the Classic. · 254 days ago ·

  • BrianZipse · Fantastic field, just a shame it was so wet ... didn't I say that about '81 as well? Java Gold was a powerhouse who seems to be somewhat forgotten. Mack Miller thought he was his best. · 274 days ago ·

Early in the summer I remember several of the Monmouth Park writers having a discussion about the quality of racing after The Haskell. Which hearkens the question: Is there life after The Haskell?Read More

Hello Haskell, my old friend. It's almost time for you again... A child of the Garden State, there is no race so deep in my being as Monmouth's signature mile and an eighth. I still have goosebumps begotten of great Haskell's past, like the day Majestic Light scorched the summer earth, or the way Fi...Read More

  • Mike in SB · Great blog, Silver Charm and Free House were two of my favorite horses, but I don't consider Silver Charm an eastern horse, he was trained and stabled in California and ran the majority of his races in California. I believe the best East-West rivalry of the 1980's was Sunday Silence and Easy Goer. · 316 days ago ·

  • skipaway2000 · I think the best rivalry that actually happened in the 2000's was among the Class of 2007 - Street Sense, Curlin, Hard Spun (& to a lesser extent Any Given Saturday) beat up on each other all year, in all of the major 3yo races. They all even showed up in the BC Classic. That's a great rivalry. Nice work on the retrospective :) · 316 days ago ·

I can remember the image like it was yesterday. And why not? I saw it enough times. The handsome bay colt, his regally arched neck so low you could swear he was looking between his legs. And those strides: smooth and effortless, always reaching out for more ground. Before the  term “in the zone...Read More
Ever since I was a very young racing fan, I have always looked forward to The Fountain of Youth Stakes.
