What the Nation is saying about Escapefromreality...

Revolutionary was not the most impressive winner yesterday; Animal Kingdom and Dreaming of Julia saw to that. He hasn’t beaten the most impressive horses out there; the unheralded duo of Escapefromreality and Mylute were the second place finishers in his two stakes wins. He is not even the most high...Read More

  • kedez2012 · I really like him, and that surprises me. I had actually favored Orb for a while, but I found myself talking about Revolutionary to a friend yesterday, and I realized just how high I am on him. I like that he does tend to get himself into trouble, but he also knows how to get out of it. Love those Lane's End breeds. · 48 days ago ·

Trainer Dominick Schettino today confirmed that Calvin Borel will be aboard MeB Racing Stables’ Always in a Tiz in the $1 million Wood Memorial. The 3-year-old Tiznow colt enters the 1 1/8-mile Wood off a fifth-place finish over a sloppy 1 1/16 miles on February 18 in the Grade 3 Southwest at Oaklaw...Read More
The Derby Trail heads north to the The Big Apple for its only legitimate (i.e. Derby point system) prep race of the weekend. Do you think Johnny Velazquez took the mount on Overanalyze, leaving warm sunny Florida for chilly New York just because he could also take in a Broadway show? Read More

  • Sully · I decided to put a pre-scratch P6 together. I'm positive there will be some scratches though. My P6 spread ticket is 4-1,8 w 1,4-3 w 2,4 w 2,9 w 1,7-3 w 4-1,7. If anyone wants to know how spread tix work, just let me know. Just like everything in life, they have their positives and their negatives, but I like them to include "what-if" options. · 80 days ago ·

The Gotham Stakes gets its name from the nickname for New York City. Gotham became popularized when in 1940 the Batman comic book identified the home of the caped crusader as Gotham City. Read More

Escapefromreality Ran a great race but Revolutionary was just full of run at the end. That horse deserves the win after that much traffic. Hope we get to see this horse get some revenge in the Gotham. Great effort!
There are three (3) Derby prep races on Saturday... The Withers @ Aqueduct, Robert B. Lewis @ Santa Anita and Sam F. Davis @ Tampa Downs. All 3 are graded, carry a purse of $200k and run at 1 1/16 miles, yet only 2 out of 3 award the all important "Derby Points". Read More

  • icyhotboo · "I agree 100% about picking & choosing your spots, but as a service to HRN readers, I provide my opinions on Derby preps as well as MD races. To think that in every one of those races, my opinion MUST NOT be the M/L favorite is insane."Gary Quill/Yes, your position is much different than someone making a wager only for themselves. As you stated you have other considerations which would seem apparent, but obviosly there not. After a while you'll get used to having to explain what should be an easy assumption. I'm a little tired so I didn't look at all your plays but, your selection and wagering structure on the SAM F. DAVIS was something I especially liked. Hope you don't mind, but if you did, or were to wager on that race privately (SAM F. DAVIS) without regard to your article, would you have included the superfecta? Anyway nice job. I'll keep you on my radar. · 104 days ago ·

  • marylandgq · @icyhotboo; To answer your question, YES. I play what I post, so the Sam Davis play was a nice hit. As far as SUPERFECTA's, I don't play them.... never ever! Just not my style, but thanks for pointing out that I should have had the SUPER based on the horses used in my TRI. · 100 days ago ·
