This horse has won me Boatloads of Cash. I hope the rest of his career as a stud goes well for him. He always gave you an honest race and seemed to try hard everytime. Seeing him win that BC mile made me flip!
  • travel_vic · Before the Woodbine mile, he registered the fastest closing time I have ever calcuated on the grass in over three years. That big kick was not around for his next 11 or so starts, but somehow came back to him the day he needed it the most. · 33 days ago ·

Breeders' Cup (BC) Saturday is always one of the most exciting days of the year in thoroughbred racing. This year was no different, wherein 65,000 plus showed up to witness a rollercoaster ride of an afternoon.

The head-spinning Breeders’ Cup has come and gone, and in some respects should not have been a surprise given how head-spinning the rest of the year has been (think way back to the ups and downs of the road to the Triple Crown).

Court Vision stuns Turallure and Goldikova in BC Mile.   
  • winwinwin · Too many race fans forget quickly that Albarado was scheduled to ride May's Derby winner Animal Kingdom and has patiently waited for this 2 million race and what better horse than his favorite Court Vision who almost ran down Goldikova and Gio Ponti last year finsihing 2 lengths behind them after being blocked twice . · 89 days ago ·

  • Cigar16 · The debacle that occured on Thursday from the fallout of CD's decision to not open the turf course for training has become a situation that I now find to be just as humorous (somebody please take Michael Stoute's deplorable trackside rant and make a comical YouTube video of it!) as it is shameful! Shameful for both entities. Despite CD's effort to make trainers aware by broadcasting on several occasions via the PA system the possibility of grass course training closure due to a threat of precipitation, a mess still ensued. WHY, did CD close the course a nanosecond before the scheduled opening? HELLO? I get that it was for legit reasons, but making that decision without facilitating your freaking public/horsemen relations department etc in preemptive coordination with the Euro's was appalling. This is not a normal event. Sorry, but CD definitely dropped that ball! But on the flip side is who the hell does John Gosden, and the most obnoxious, self entitled jackass Michael Stoute think they are in that they feel they can remedy their inconvenience by doing as they please in disregarding the closure, attempting to DISMANTLE the railing, and helping themselves to the course as if they were at home and having a backyard BBQ??? OMG! I was embarrassed for them! We can only hope that this will be at the very least a learning experience for the future.. All of that being said, and being one of the last people to look the other way as protocol is not adhered to, I do not speak lightly when I say that in the grand scheme of things, 10, 20, or a 100 years from now as an American racing fan I DO NOT WANT the unpleasant stigma that would have been ours FOREVER had the stewards DQ'ed Goldikova to LAST, therefore forever tarnishing her image. I am so glad the stewards proved diplomatic, thought of the consequences, and made the RIGHT DECISION! · 89 days ago ·

  • likin sparks · Hey, what better way to entice more foreign horses to complete in the BC races, no harm nor foul for bumping. Also CD should have had all the PR and grounds crew out after the rain subsided drying the track off with hair dryers it wasn't good enough! · 89 days ago ·

  • mshutty · Court Vision has won only one race this year and it was the 2010 edition of the Woodbine Mile. He's another year older and other horses are improving at the right time. I like the Side Glance but Courageous Cat appears to be the one to beat. Turallure and Right One deserve some consideration underneath or even as possible upsetters for the win · 139 days ago ·

Fifteen years ago, Skip Away won the last edition of the Woodbine Million, ushering in a new September event at Woodbine. Was the switch to the Woodbine Mile an evolution or a devolution from its long-lost predecessor? Read More
  • zatt · I loved the old Molson Million, Prized, Izvestia, Peteski, Dramatic Gold, and of course Skip Away, but the Woodbine Mile has also been an excellent race, and fits in with Woodbine's turf emphasis in the fall. Having said that, this year's field does look a bit weaker than usual. · 141 days ago ·
