What the Nation is saying about Desert Party...

First off I would like to start off by saying, I got to see the Derby Draw LIVE yesterday! I know, not a big deal, but for a college student who is stuck with no TVG or HRTV, this was a humungous deal. I sat on the edge of my seat waiting for each and every one of my top selections names to be calle...Read More

  • DeadHeat · With the scratch of Uncle Mo I would add MI to my top 4. I'm not expecting a win, but Baffert is a Derby trainer and is on fire this weekend. · 275 days ago ·

Godolphin Racing has retired multiple graded/group stakes winner Desert Party, who developed a soft tissue injury after scoring by 3 ½ lengths in the $200,000 Donald LeVine Memorial Handicap on June 26 at Philadelphia Park. The four-year-old Street Cry (Ire) colt out of Sage Cat, by Tabasco Cat...Read More
Vineyard Haven is one of the most talented horses in training that has never raced in a classic or a Breeders' Cup. For the last two years he has been at the top of his class, but for a couple different reasons has not made it to the biggest races. Hopefully, that will change in November... Read More
Godolphin Stable won eight races – including four Grade 1 races – from 14 starts during the last year’s Saratoga meeting, and the operation appears to have carried that momentum into the 2010 stand at the Spa after Vineyard Haven won yesterday’s seven-furlong James Marvin Stakes in the slop.  ...Read More
Philadelphia Park: Donald LeVine Memorial  Handicap 7f dirt, 3yo+ (8:15pm BST)DESERT PARTY (Saeed bin Suroor/David Cohen) makes his first US start since finishing 14th in the 2009 Kentucky Derby, a race  after which he underwent surgery to remove an ankle chip.Read More
Trainer Kiaran McLaughlin has always admired Uptowncharlybrown from afar. After having gotten up close and personal with the 3-year-old colt in the last 72 hours, McLaughlin's admiration has blossomed even more.

Godolphin's Calming Influence took over rounding the turn, opened up a commanding lead in the stretch, and held off Green Coast to win the $1 million Godolphin Mile (UAE-II) March 27 in Dubai.Read More
It's breakfast at Wimbledon for racing fans....I'd call it the Duel in the Desert, but there's really no big duel being touted on the Sheikh's biggest race day of the year. Not that we have one in the works here in the States (now that the Apple Bottom Jeans Handicap has been hijacked by Jess Jackso...Read More
Desert Party, a Kentucky-bred colt who has made the same number of starts in Dubai as he has in the United States, will try to make it two straight in Dubai as he takes on 13 rivals in the March 27 Godolphin Mile.Read More
Godolphin's DESERT PARTY (Street Cry [Ire]) made a good-looking comeback in the $200,000 Mahab al Shimaal (UAE-G3) at Meydan on Super Thursday. Sidelined since his uncharacteristic 14th in the 2009 Kentucky Derby (G1), which he exited with an ankle injury that required surgery, the Saeed bin Suroor ...Read More
In his first race as a 4yr.old, and if I'm not mistaken, his first race since the 2009 Kentucky Derby, Desert Party looked like the horse that soundly beat Regal Ransom in the 2009 UAE 2000 Guineas. He took to the inside, stalking the pace and opened up on the field to win the 2010 "Mahab Al Shimam" at Meydan racecourse in Dubai. An impressive return to the races for a colt that before being sidelined by injury after the 09' Kentucky Derby, looked to have a bright racing future ahead of him. IMO.
Having been off of the track since his injury in the 2009 Kentucky Derby, the now 4yr.old Godolphin colt "Desert Party" returned to the track a winner in the Mahab Al Shimaal on 3-4-10, at Meydan racecourse in Dubai. He stalked right off of the pace for most of the race, then slipped right up the rail into the lead to draw away by about 3 lengths to win. He really looked impressive in his return to racing, but Desert Party has always raced well in Dubai.
Godolphin's Vale of York is set to return to competition on March 4 in the $250,000 Al Bastakiya, the middle jewel of the United Arab Emirates Triple Crown and one of six lucrative stakes at Meydan.Read More
  • Medlocke · I'd be the first to admit that Vale of York looked impressive in his win in the Breeders Cup Juvenile at Santa Anita back in November. But other than that run that he made over the synthetic main track at Santa Anita, all of his other racing has been done on turf at race tracks primarily in Great Britain. If Godolphin is looking to make a potential Kentucky Derby contender out of Vale of York, you'd think they would be looking to race him in some of the conventional dirt track Derby Prep races, just to see how he's going to respond to the surface.

Based on how I figured the race out on paper, I think I’m going to structure plays around Friesan Fire and Deserty Party (I know, the post stinks, but he’s talented and offers good value). I will pair those horses up with longshot closers in third with a wide spread between them in second. I will al...Read More
 Rain is in the forecast for Derby Day, and my best advice is to see how the track is playing before making any final decisions. If it is wet, some may move up and some may hate it, but many will run their normal race. If you like a horse in the Derby, trust that the connect...Read More
