What happened with CW?
Trainer Ben Perkins wasn't thrilled to see his 3-year-old sprinter Well Spelled, under Pablo Fragoso, last and 13 lengths off the pace in the first part of Saturday's $300,000 Gallant Bob Handicap at Parx.Read More
Currency Swap and Trinniberg will go at it again Sept. 22 in the $300,000 Gallant Bob Stakes at Parx Racing, but both seem vulnerable nearing the end of a long 2012 campaign. Read More
One of the most commonly used phrases in racing today is: draw a line through it. In racing many people use that catch phrase to narrow down their handicapping choices and trainers frequently talk about their horse’s chances based on those words.Read More

  • Floridaf · When it comes to the end of the year, this is going to be one of the races we "draw a line through." In all seriousness, I'm having a heard time betting against Alpha. · 271 days ago ·

  • ashley.tamulonis · Just going by what his trainer said, Paladin, but I agree that Fort Loudon is a Calder monster, which is why I think FL is a throw-out for this race. · 273 days ago ·

GO Currency Swap, I believe in you!
On Sunday, Saratoga Springs native Terri Pompay brought her big horse, Currency Swap, to the Spa, where he delivered another devastating performance, collaring leader Doctor Chit with a sixteenth of a mile to go and rolling through the stretch to victory in the Grade 2, $200,000 Amsterdam for 3-yea...Read More
He should be rated a bit higher after his Amsterdam preformamce.
I wonder if he could challenge the mile division with Shackleford and others. If not, him and Trinniberg can duke it out at 6F
  • gelded1 · 6f-7f looks to be his limits against top competition. Anything longer in distance he would have to drop in class to be competitive in my opinion. · 297 days ago ·

I'd honestly throw out his Illinois derby effort, because he is great in 6 1/2 or 7 Furlong races. Also won the Amsterdam very nicely today.
Currency Swap returns to the scene of his Grade 1 Hopeful triumph when he takes on six rivals in Sunday's Grade 2 Amsterdam at Saratoga.Read More
I knew Currency Swap was going to do great in the Woody Stephens, I was shocked that he went off at 8-1 he had already beaten Trinniberg and has been rounding into shape since his injury he's going to be a dangerous colt!
A resolute Trinniberg, dogged through the early going by Currency Swap, put away his rival in the Belmont Park stretch and went on to a 1 3/4-length victory in Saturday’s 28th running of the Grade 2, $400,000 Woody Stephens presented by VisitNassauCounty.com.Read More

Currency Swap is a great sprinter people will be hearing his name a lot coming down the stretch!
With a measured victory in the $85,000, seven-furlong You and I stakes on Saturday at Belmont Park, Currency Swap showed the form that marked his 2011 juvenile campaign, which included a win in the Grade 1 Three Chimneys Hopeful at Saratoga Race Course.Read More
