  • zatt · He was pressured early and stuck on the rail, but that was a disappointing performance. Meanwhile, Pleasant Prince looked like the horse that won two Derbies last year. · 147 days ago ·

Flat Out, the longest shot on the board at 13-1, barreled widest of all into the lead at the top of the stretch and onto a 6 ½-length upset in Saturday's 125th edition of the Grade 2, $300,000 Suburban Handicap at Belmont Park. Ridden by Alex Solis, the 5-year-old son of Flatter stayed within hailin...Read More
Saturday afternoon at Belmont Park, a pair of 6-year-olds squares off in the 126th edition of the Grade 2, $300,000 Suburban Handicap, which drew a solid field of six as graded stakes action commences for the three-day Independence Day weekend.Read More
Colizeo controlled the pace but could hold off Apart in the Grade 3 William Donald Schaefer Memorial at Pimlico on Preakness Saturday. Colizeo was in command setting comfortable fractions of :24.38, :48.83, and 1:13.19 under John Velazquez but Apart was never far back. Garrett Gomez made his wide mo...Read More
Apart, the 5-2 morning line favorite in Saturday's Grade 3 William Donald Schaefer Memorial at Pimlico, tries to end a 4-race losing streak dating back to last November.   Al Stall Jr.'s consistent son of Flatter began his roll at Louisiana Downs last summer and after winning the Super Derby an...Read More
S. S. Stone, aways well placed under Julien Leparoux, kicked clear in the lane to beat Jackson Bend by two lengths in the 24th running of the Grade 3 Skip Away Stakes at Gulfstream Park on April 3. Solid 2-1 favorite Colizeo set the pace for six furlongs but S. S. Stone was never father than a 1/2 l...Read More
  • 12 Clip · I hit a the late pick three at one of the So. Cal tracks when S.S. Stone broke his maiden. It was the last race of the day it was a nice score if I remember correctly. · 311 days ago ·

The Florida Derby (Race #10) is being run on a Sunday for the first time in its storied history and Gulfstream Park has assembled a terrific 12 race card.  Also included are three other graded stakes, the Swale as Race #3, the Appleton as Race #9, and the Skip Away as Race #9.  Let’s take ...Read More
Colizeo took plenty of action when he easily beat last year's Belmont Stakes hero Drosselmeyer in Tampa Bay's Challenger Stakes last time. Those two meet again in Sunday's Grade 3 Skip Away, and the 9.5 furlong event at Gulfstream Park also attracted Jackson Bend. Todd Pletcher's improving colt Coli...Read More
He looked really good winning the Challenger Stakes at Tampa, I mean really good. He's progressing with age, and at 4 he could be a prime contender for the Stephen Foster, I'd say a likely goal considering he's experienced over the Churchill oval including a win in the G3 Northern Dancer last June. Belmont Stakes winner Drosselmeyer finished 4th in the same race, and I actually believe the 2nd place finisher Jardim is talented with his top achievement being a romp in the Michael G. Schaefer Mile Stakes at Hoosier on Indiana Derby Day. In that race Jardim beat recent G3 Mineshaft winner Demarcation by 7 lengths, and Z Humor, who just won the Maxxim Gold Cup at Sam Houston, followed another 1 1/4 lengths behind Demarcation.
Drosselmeyer, winner of the 2010 Belmont Stakes, will make his long awaited 4-year-old debut here at Tampa Bay Downs on Saturday as the overwhelming favorite of a field of 11 older handicap runners in the $60,000 Challenger Stakes at 1 1/16 miles.Luis Garcia will handle Drosselmeyer at 122 pounds un...Read More
Nordic Truce, whose four-race winning streak was snapped by Krypton in the Grade 3 Hill Prince at Belmont Park, looks to turn the tables Friday afternoon in the 26th running of the Grade 2, $150,000 National Museum of Racing Hall of Fame Stakes at Saratoga Race Course.   Trained by Christophe ...Read More
Trickmeister realized his potential Saturday, going wire-to-wire to win the $100,000 Barbaro Stakes in the mud at Delaware Park.Trickmeister and jockey Gabriel Saez had to wait out a steward's inquiry before the win became official. Coming down the stretch, Trickmeister drifted to the inside toward ...Read More
Six 3-year-olds have entered Saturday’s Long Branch Stakes at Monmouth Park, all perhaps with an eye on the Jersey Shore’s top prize - the $1 million IZOD Haskell Invitational on Aug. 1. But before anyone makes plans on facing Kentucky Derby winner Super Saver in the IZOD Haskell, they need to pass...Read More
Wertheimer and Frere’s Colizeo outlasted Worldly by a neck after a stretch-long battle to win the 13th running of the $136,375 Northern Dancer (GIII) for 3-year-olds on Saturday afternoon at Churchill Downs.   The race was a near repeat of when the two colts met here last fall as 2-year-olds in...Read More
Saturday’s pick six from Churchill Downs includes a carryover of more than $57,000 (races 6-11). Five Graded races are part of the sequence including the Grade 1 Stephen Foster Handicap for 3-year-olds and up traveling nine furlongs on the main track. Rachel Alexandra tries to get back on the b...Read More
Heiligbrodt Racing Stable’s homebred Crider ran a good second in the May 8 Lone Star Derby (gr. III) last out, which should set him up well for the $125,000 Northern Dancer Stakes (gr. III) at Churchill Downs June 12. The Northern Dancer is the third of five graded stakes on the Churchill program he...Read More
Colizeo was looking like a potential Derby product until he got ran into the ground by First Dude and Fly Down.
  • Barbados Buck · Zito was very high on Fly Down going into the race. I wonder where he'll run him next? · 717 days ago ·

  • cigar · Colizeo's maiden win was against a super soft group of horses. It shows in that Pletcher decided to put him in an allowance race instead of one of the many stakes available for 3-year-olds. · 716 days ago ·

Of the 23 individual betting interests in the Kentucky Derby Future Wager, 10 are running this weekend and six ran last weekend. That means the fabric of this year’s Derby picture is going to be greatly altered by Sunday. It also means that a good number of Future Wager tickets will be virtually wor...Read More
Well, we have our Top 23 Future Wager horses. Of course, old reliable “all others” is the morning line favorite, which every year provides bettors with the worst odds imaginable. But what if you matched the Top 23 with and second-tier group and see which group proves more successful and sends the mo...Read More
A few years back when interviewing Tony Dutrow, he told me he was in the racing business to make money and that every horse was for sale. Now that he has WINSLOW HOMER on the Derby trail for julep-yearning owner Rick Porter, it will be interesting to see how his philosophy changes now with a sip of ...Read More
