  • travel_vic · From an ESPN article: "At Oaklawn Park, there will never be a Cougar Day, a Mike vs. Chantal match race, or an advertising campaign featuring exotic dancers; there will never be night racing, or camel racing or ostrich racing. At Oaklawn Park, horses and racing matter. " · 18 days ago ·

  • 12thCrown · Not sure how many of you frequent Oaklawn, so while there won't be a "Cougar Day" per se, there are plenty of eligible ladies and dudes hanging around the second level sports bar. Seriously though, it's an extremely social place where people do care about the horses. · 14 days ago ·

  • shadowno · Unless Stay Thirsty pops and wins the BCC this should be a no brainer for Animal Kingdom. He won the race they all wanted to win, ran a big Preakness and was injured likely during the running of the Belmont. Even with a BCC win it doesn't get any bigger than Kentucky Derby. · 116 days ago ·

  • RaTalk_Girl · shadowno, interesting thoughts. I cannot disagree that every 3 year old wants that Derby win, but is it really enough. I do think that your argument about his Preakness run could change my mind. He looked great in the Derby and I do not think the way he ran in the Preakness is second to anyone. It will be interesting to see what the rest of the season brings. · 116 days ago ·

“Rest in Peace, Kensei.” I saw those words last week on Facebook, and my heart just sank.

Broke his maiden at first time asking while equaling the track record at 5 furlongs. Has any of the top 2 year-olds in the country done that or have bettered his time?

  • DeadHeat · Tiznow, nobody said she was not a special filly, but saying she is in the running for HOTY? We have horses like Awesome Maria and HDG who are both unbeaten this year. Rail Trip, Tizway, Sidney's Candy, and Twirling Candy are all capable of leading the male division with wins in their next starts. That is the biased. Yes, most of the males i listed are west coast but the females are both on the east and are unbeaten and dominant against their own sex. If any female should be in the discussion it should be HDG and AM. Another point of biased, RA loses two races to previous stakes winners then wins her next two, yet I heard many people saying there was no way for her to get HOTY. What is the differnce? Why is BL a vailid candidate and RA was not? · 221 days ago ·

Now that The Derby has come and gone, it’s time to turn our attention to the often overlooked “middle child” of the Triple Crown series.

  • DeadHeat · IMO Animal Kingdom is so versitile that it may not matter what the pace is like. He has been on the lead, stalking, mid pack and dead closer and has always performed well. DI may be running well at the end if he does not drop too far back. Astrology, IMO will be sitting fourth or fifth and should have a shot to. Based on this I would not play Flash, Shackle or DC. · 262 days ago ·

  • Tremendous Machine · Dialed In's your horse here. DI still managed to nip Shack in the Florida Derby despite speed holding up all day and Shack having a great trip. Shack went on to take the lead and beat all but 3 horses in Louisville, so you know his speed is legit and he will be pushing the pace. The half will fall in 46 and change and DI will be roaring up the stretch, only this time DI will not have to navigate through such a huge field. DI's last half mile in the KD was 47 flat, which was considerably faster than Zenyatta at the same treack in the BC classic, only the KD track that day was rated as much faster which is why the Beyer and other speed figures were slower for the KD. Bottom line, DI will benefit from a faster pace and a smaller field and will be coming fast. He may not win, but he will certainly hit the board and won't miss by much if he doesn't win. · 262 days ago ·

  • annmatt · Jockey changes are nothing new. And, it wasn't as if Albarado was AK's regular jockey. Had Robby ridden those two days instead of taking off, he would have been the rider on AK. AK's connections were right to wonder whether Albarado would be 100% when Albarado himself by taking himself off his mounts caused a question to arise! · 265 days ago ·
