What the Horse Racing Nation is saying about Eton Blue...

Connections for three colts informed the Keeneland racing office Tuesday morning that they would like to take a shot at Saturday’s $750,000 Toyota Blue Grass Stakes (G1) if they can get in the starting gate.Read More
“He’s coming to the (Toyota) Blue Grass (G1),” trainer John Terranova said Monday morning of West Hills Giant after the New York-bred colt worked five furlongs in 1:00.47 over a fast Belmont Park training track.Read More

Once again trainer Dale Romans shipped a contender from his Churchill Downs base to Keeneland to work a week before the Toyota Blue Grass Stakes (G1). Last year, the horse was Donegal Racing’s Dullahan, who won the race by 1¼ lengths.Read More
A full gate of 14 three-year-olds likely will be the order of the day for the 89th running of the $750,000 Toyota Blue Grass Stakes (G1), the centerpiece of the 16-day spring meet, to be run Saturday, April 13.Read More

This year’s G2 Tampa Bay Derby has turned into a Florida Filly Dark Horse Derby pick fest! Five of the nine entrants hail from my Dark Horse selections, but they will all be trying to make a statement. A total of 85 points are on the line. For Java’s War, Dynamic Sky, and Falling Sky, earning any of...Read More

With a few more 3-year old stakes races on the books, it is time to take another look at some newcomers that have made some noise on the Derby trail but are not necessarily mainstream picks.Read More

  • travel_vic · Early horse on an well known EARLY track........IF this one can reproduce that effort anywhere close (and against an honest, realisitic pace) then the giant might be something to consider. These three year olds sometimes get good quick as Paytner did last year. · 103 days ago ·

  • mark.colgan.5 · If you know anything about this years Derby crop, there hasn't been much to get excited about. Shanghai Bobby doesn't have the pedigree nor the running style to be there in the Derby. He's Had Enough looks like he's had enough, Vyjack??? Not likely. Verrazano runs 22.4 - 45.2 and then pulls away from the field and wins by 15 1/4? I loved his Maiden win, this one puts him at the top of my Derby list. If you weren't impressed you were either blind or do not know what kind of horse you are seeing. · 134 days ago ·

  • cocoa2 · "Tracks shorten distances to please trainers." I can't say why they do this, but I know it isn't to please trainers. Tracks pressure trainers to run horses more often than they should to get full cards while threatening to take away stalls should trainers not fill a huge margin that they are forced to. The classic distance is the median, the middle distance in which all horses are comfortable. I can tell you that if our horses are stretching out to 10f, or "can't get it", 10f is not the classic distance. Icy has been suggesting that 9f is our classic distance but I'll go one further - 1 mile is our classic distance. How do we fix this? We need to find a Vanderbilt who will take what happened with Pimlico and make it work with all the tracks in the country. But how do we get all the tracks together to make this one big decision or rule? A center horse racing GOVERNMENT like the senate! Each track will get a vote on bills and there will be a president. How do we achieve this? Dissolve NYRA and other small corrupt boards. Why should we do this? To improve the breed as the saying goes, to keep drugs outlawed and enforce it, to reduce the number of breakdowns and for heaven's sakes to get a grip in the Eclipse Awards and get this east coast bias the hell out of there. · 156 days ago ·

Did we see a potential star born today? I speculated on BloodHorse earlier this week that Nick Zito might hold the hot hand come Derby time with two of my favorite Derby prospects, Mountain Eagle and Declan's Warrior; but he unveiled another one to watch today in the 9th at Gulfstream, a one-mile MSW in which this Giant's Causeway son of Kentucky Oaks winner Bird Town (half-sister to Belmont winner Birdstone) scored a battling win in his second start. Watch out for this one down the road!

  • goblin · I believe BH MaidenWatch will have the replay posted tomorrow. I was impressed with the Curlin colts, Dyker Beach and Air Squadron, closing rapidly to finish second and third. Dyker Beach came from far back to get second; Air Squadron was in traffic on the rail until moving to the outside late in order to be a close third. · 163 days ago ·
