Mike in SB · I think the best horse to win the Sprint, maybe not the best pure sprinter but the best horse, was Precisionist way back in 1985. · 222 days ago ·

Winplacsho · There are some very fond memories in the top 10 for me, but my favorite would have to be the 1995 Sprint that Desert Stormer. It was my 18th birthday & I loved Lit de Justice in the race. Well, Lit de Justice & Desert Stormer were a coupled field entry, so I won on a technicality. Plus, LDJ came back to win the next year at Woodbiine! · 222 days ago ·

rayjay · I remember Our Mims, who won the 1976 Alabama at Saratoga at 6-1. I was there that day, and was lucky enough to back her. Also, she was the older half-sister to Alydar, one of my all time favorites. I remember Elmhurst as being a really good sprinter. · 276 days ago ·

Father’s Day Should Be a Family Day

June 19th is Father’s Day. It is the day when we Dads get to share our favorite activity with our family. So on Sunday at Monmouth Park you will see many families filing into the picnic area with coolers and grills, and Racing Forms tucked under arms – all to make sure that Dad has a great day.

zatt · As a relatively new father, this one especially resonates with me ... I will never tire of bringing my family to the races. By the way, Kendra (turning 3 in a few weeks) rode her first pony ever on Sunday. :) · 347 days ago ·

12thCrown · I agree Matt. My wife couldn't tell a T'bred from a mule until we met, yet she has given me the nod on several big racing trips w/out her. She'll go an entire day at Lone Star without even making a bet, but now that we have a 2YO filly loves visiting her at the farm. Happy Fathers Day, sir! · 342 days ago ·
