Mike in SB · Boy Mike Smith is picking up a lot of good horses, the Baffert 3 year olds and now Royal Delta. Royal Delta might be the best of the group, he could have a great Breeders Cup if he stays on all these horses. · 341 days ago ·

Mary Z. · Mike Smith knows what he has in Royal Delta. Oh, boy, does he want to say more. I bet he can't even believe how fortunate he is to ride the best horse in training right now. He probably can't stop grinning. · 341 days ago ·

amfuller · I know, right. I loved how as soon as she got her head past Afleeting Lady she pricked her ears forward as if to say to Mike, "relax I got this." I sure hope they go to the BCC with her this year. · 341 days ago ·

Mary Z. · First, I'm so glad Brian Appleton did this write up ! Facts presented in a flattering way, which isn't too hard considering the subject, and you have such an enjoyable to read writing style, Brian A. I love RD's owner's confidence in her. He might have her try the DWC again. Yes, "my" dear Princess Royal Delta is as ready as she can be to win at a track she has loved. Good to see that St.John's River has made it back, and I think she'll improve, too, just that Afleeting Lady could take second over SJR, for the reasons you listed as to why she will improve in her third race back from her close second last fall at CD at this distance. Does anyone ever mention that she is 1/2 to Shackleford? Has Oatsee won a broodmare award yet? She has the returning to training Stephanoatsee, too. But, that's another subject. Go Royal Delta! · 344 days ago ·

Mary Z. · Oh, wait. I'm supposed to be understanding if not thoroughly delighted that she's exercising in this??(I don't have a noun for it) and then she can theoretically go on to win was it 7 grade 1's throughout the rest of the year? I have not been that high in my life, and I will not take that back. · 436 days ago ·

Mike in SB · In the old day many trainers would bring a horse back off a layoff with a start in an allowance race, this is todays version of a prep race. I am going to bet Rosie's horse, Juanita, you never know, it happened in 2010. · 436 days ago ·
