What the Nation is saying about Fighter Wing...

A match up between last year’s Kentucky Oaks favorite and last year’s New Orleans Ladies winner appears likely this Saturday at Fair Grounds.Read More
Mrs. Yoshio Fujita’s Ravi’s Song, allowed to settle, launched a bold bid along the inside when set down for the drive and drew off for a convincing length and a half score in Saturday’s second running of the $100,000 New Orleans Ladies for older fillies and mares at Fair Grounds.   The winner, ...Read More
Mrs. Yoshio Fujita’s Ravi’s Song, unhurried early in Saturday’s featured $60,000 Pelleteri Stakes for older fillies and mares at Fair Grounds, closed with a crescendo by hitting all the high notes late to be best by a length and a half at the wire.   “She made a tremendous late move,” said trai...Read More
Ivan Dalos’s Avie’s Tale, heroine of Fair Grounds’ $58,000 Blushing K D Handicap on New Year’s Day when that race was taken off the grass and run on a sloppy main track, has been installed as the lukewarm 3-1 choice for Saturday’s 25th anniversary edition of the $60,000 Pelleteri Stakes for older fi...Read More
So, the “Race for the Ages” is off, and Jess Jackson says they now regret rushing Rachel Alexandra to make the New Orleans Ladies. When a horse doesn’t work for five months, it’s usually more than the weather that is to blame. It was obvious watching Rachel on Saturday that this was not the same fil...Read More

  • bancona · Would someone please look at the times on past performances for Rachel? Even when she whooped a field, the times posted were much slower than those of Zardana (and Zenyatta) at the same distance. · 694 days ago ·

$200,000 New Orleans Ladies Fillies & mares, 4-year-olds and up, 1 1/16 miles, inaugural running Jockey David Flores (Zardana, winner): “We had a picture-perfect trip. The strategy was simply to get her to relax and John (Shirreffs, trainer) said she would get the job done. The pace was perfect...Read More

  • amfuller · I don't think we will see RA at the AB. Even an 85% RA should have been what she was up against yesterday based on how she ran in 09. I think the best campaign won HOY in 09 not the best horse and now RA is paying for it. I am a Zenyatta fan, I just think what RA accomplished last year was great but she may never be the same horse again. I want RA and Z to match up when they feel RA is 100%. With Z yesterday, she go into traffic had to duck to the inside and still won going away and Mike never had to use the whip. Go Zenyatta! · 697 days ago ·

  • Arrrgy · If RA bounces back and can put in a 1 mi. work in 1:39 in two weeks, come back with a good 5F work, why not run in the AB? · 697 days ago ·

Based on her unprecedented success as a 3-year-old filly last year, Horse of the Year Rachel Alexandra has been installed as the prohibitive 1-5 morning line choice when she faces four female rivals in Fair Grounds’ inaugural running of the $200,000 New Orleans Ladies this Saturday in the super fil...Read More

  • Arrrgy · CS will jump up another notch and may be enough to beat a tiring RA. She needs a low tide and a super fast track to help. · 699 days ago ·

  • gardenesque1 · Clear Sailing is improving, versatile, 3 for 3 at FG, and she is capable of uncorking triple digit late pace figs. Has a fitness edge and will be finishing. That being said, any of Rachel's last 9 figs would get the job done. · 699 days ago ·

Because of the length of each diary, the number of parts have been increased. Tentatively, Part 3 will cover March 10 thru March 22; Part 4 will encompass my trip to Dubai (March 23 to 29) and comments from people over there; and the final part will be covering the race live.Read More
Will Horse of the Year Rachel Alexandra enjoy clear sailing in Fair Grounds’ upcoming $200,000 New Orleans Ladies March 13 when she makes her first start of the 2010 racing season?   Not necessarily. Among those possible to challenge “Rachel” in the inaugural running of the 1 1/16-mile test for...Read More
Veteran jockey Shane Sellers, lately surging as “The Comeback Kid” after being away from competition for four-and-a-half years, came from worst to first astride the appropriately-named Clear Sailing to win Saturday’s featured $60,000 Pelleteri Stakes by a neck to give Sellers a riding triple for the...Read More
