What the Horse Racing Nation is saying about Flashpoint...

I LOVE Flashpoint. Hes an amazing colt. Its dissapointing to hear hes retired. What will they be doing with him? I know if they sell him I would wanna buy him!
Flashpoint tore a suspensory in his front leg and has been retired.    
  • DeadHeat · Another retirement. I hope next year turns out to be much better. We have some great looking horses that look like they could make next year so much more exciting. Lets pray they don't get injured. · 216 days ago ·

Trainer Wesley Ward confirmed plans to take crack sprinter Flashpoint to the Grade 1 Foxwoods King’s Bishop on August 27, Travers Day. “It’s my reason for living right now,” said Ward, currently based at Aqueduct Racetrack, via telephone.

I've been following this horse since he beat simba story in his maiden....THIS HORSE IS THE REAL DEAL!!!! Won alot of money on flashpoint and will continue to do so!!
It is my opinion that Flashpoint has the capacity to be one of the leading (if not the leading) sprinters in 2011. He proved that point again this weekend with a seven-length victory in the Grade 3 $143,000 Jersey Shore Stakes at Monmouth Park. Flashpoint has now run five times in his brief career, ...Read More
The trio of Zero Rate Policy, Flashpoint and Chipshot battled through quick fractions of :21 3/5 for the quarter and :44 2/5 for the half mile before Peachtree Stable’s Flashpoint assumed command and drew off in the lane to capture the $150,000 Jersey Shore Stakes at Monmouth Park on Sunday by seven...Read More
After trying the nation’s top 3-year-olds in the Preakness Stakes last out, Peachtree Stable’s Flashpoint will go back to one turn when he breaks from post five in the Grade 3 $150,000 Jersey Shore Stakes at Monmouth Park on Sunday.   “We tried to stretch him out,” said trainer Wesley Ward.&nb...Read More
Sunday’s $150,000 Jersey Shore Stakes (G3) will bring out some very talented 3-year-old sprinters who might again threaten the track record for six furlongs.   Each renewal of the race brings the chance of very fast times, a tradition started when sprint champion Smoke Glacken won the 1997 rene...Read More

The speculation is now over. Sherwin Root, the ZATT Kentucky Derby Contest winner has announced that he will be sticking with Animal Kingdom as his selection for the 2011 Preakness. Root won the $200 win bet on the Preakness horse of his choice when he correctly picked the Kentucky Derby exacta of A...Read More

  • cugel the clever · Zatt said "Astrology has been beaten consistently by lesser horses, he's a possibility to turn it around, but I can't bet him". Nonsense. Astrology is one of only 6 horses in this race who has won a graded stakes race. And that six does not include Mr.C. Astrology has also placed 2nd in three other graded stakes races in his career. He belongs in this race more than does most of the field. I pick him for 4th but won't be surprised if he's closer. · 372 days ago ·

  • crazy horse · Mr Commons is my LS play along with Sway Away. I don't know why anyone would be more than a little worried about Dialed In, Astrology or Midnight Interlude and I'd be very worried about Flashpoint. Have you seen what Wesley does with 1stW/Trn? Of course, the only way he or any other front runner will win is if they run :47 or slower. · 372 days ago ·
