What the Nation is saying about Leroidesanimaux...

U.S. racing fans will tune in early tomorrow morning with bated breath to see if one of our racing heroes can conquer Royal Ascot. Make no mistake, it’s a noble undertaking Animal Kingdom will undergo in the Group 1 Queen Anne Stakes. An American at Ascot, especially one heavily favored to gain vict...Read More

  • AmbitiousD · Question for everyone. How does the horse know when to switch leads on a straight course? I see this as being tricky for Johnny V when the horse's typical que to change is entering or coming out of turns. I'm sure Mr. Motion will have AK ready for this, but the topic certainly has my curiosity. · 13 days ago ·

  • DanMunn1 · One thing to note - Sheikh Mohammed owns part of the breeding rights to Animal Kingdom. His Godolphin operation own Farhh. I feel it is highly likely that Farhh will scratch out of this contest and aim for the Prince of Wales' Stakes. It'd be very silly for Sheikh Mohammed to run both. He has a vested interest in Animal Kingdom winning · 13 days ago ·

  • matthewmartini · Just be thankful that he will be racing a few more times. We have all wanted to see the feats of which he could be capable when healthy and without interruptions in his training. 2013 will be that year. His success as a sire will be determined later, but I am thankful that we will see him on the biggest stages, where he belongs. What a great athlete. · 184 days ago ·

  • DeadHeat · Bearing our can indicate inexperience also. Most horses running in the Derby exert an effort that they have never had to do before, and bearing out in the stretch is also not uncommon, especially for a horse who was in his fifth lifetime start. He got ahead and probably lost focus, which a lot of horses will do. · 764 days ago ·

  • Mike in SB · I think he has a big shot at the Triple Crown. The Preakness winner usually comes out of the Derby and Mucho Macho Man looks like the only horse from the Derby that could beat him. The Belmont will be tough, but it seems to be a riders race and Animal Kingdom will have a great jockey for the Belmont This could be the year! · 763 days ago ·

This weekend's Derby prep races were rather uninspiring to say the least.
