III) June 4 at Thistledown.It was the first graded stakes victory for the 3-year-old son of Posse, who was 12th in the April 16 Arkansas Derby when unable to overcome a bad start. Tr...Read More
Stakes performers Caleb's Posse and Wilkinson are the cream of a well-matched field of 10 three-year-old thoroughbreds competing Saturday at Thistledown in the $100,000 Ohio Derby. Caleb's Posse began the year with a victory in the $100,000 Smarty Jones at Oaklawn Park in Hot Springs, Ark., but the ...Read More
Al Stall Jr.'s highly regarded 3-year-old colt Bind, a sharp Feb 19 debut sprint winner at Fair Grounds, lost for the second time as the heavy favorite.

Highly regarded 3-year-old colt Bind makes his third career start in an entry level allowance race on the Kentucky Derby undercard. Bind, trained by Al Stall Jr., made an instant splash with a facile six furlong tally in 1:08-4/5 at Fair Grounds on Feb 19. He was the overwhelming choice in an option...Read More

  • gardenesque1 · You are right about THAS, Arbouwkamp. He was a short horse for sure. The next race will tell the story. He needs to pull a R Heat Lighning - flat first time back followed by a romp. · 454 days ago ·

  • KyOaksRunner · Soldat ran great, I loved the way he continued to kick away at the head of the stretch after leading all the way around. To Honor And Serve is a good colt but I don't like the idea of him only having one more race before the Derby. · 454 days ago ·

It is now 2011 and that means we have officially embarked on the Kentucky Derby trail. Here in the East it’s been difficult to see even the slightest hint of rose blossoms buried beneath 20-30 inches of snow drifts. But, heck, they’ve already run the first Derby prep (the Count Fleet Stakes at Aqued...Read More

Saturday's third race at Gulfstream features a field of six three-year-olds who could become Derby contenders with a strong performance in the 1 1/8-mile test. Read More
  • arazi · This is a deep allowance and any of these could step up in here. Shadow Warrior could be tough in here, but I'm curious to see what El Grayling does around two turns. He ran very well against Brethren at Churchill and ran a deceptively good fourth while wide last time. · 477 days ago ·
