  • LAZMANNICK · When I look at the great Woodward's of the past it really makes me appreciate the past and the grat horses that USED to run in this race. · 163 days ago ·

Bethany (Dayjur-Willamae, by Tentam), the dam of Met Mile (G1) winner Tizway, had good reasons for failing to produce a foal of any merit until her sixth season as a broodmare–I mean, besides her body refusing to cooperate in her fourth and fifth seasons. Or maybe she…Read More
  • xMystix · Haha! This is quite a hilarious read. Hopefully, Bethany will find success again with Tiznow. If I read this piece correctly, she went back to Tiznow in 2010, so she should have foaled sometime this year? Does anyone know? · 252 days ago ·

My last post emphasized the importance of the class of runners representing a given breeding method, as opposed to a high strike rate from opportunity. A conflict between the two arises, for example, in the case of foals that are by Malibu Moon and inbred to Mr. Prospector, which has yielded some fe...Read More
Pedigree aficionados know that the determined Breeders’ Cup Classic winner Blame and the equally determined runner-up, that photogenic mare called Zenyatta, have similar bloodlines—a mixture of Roberto through Kris S. and Mr. Prospector. I’ve written about it here before. They were really the o...Read More

It was May 18, 1974, the day of the Carter Handicap at Belmont Park. As I looked at the tote board, I couldn't believe the odds. Favored at 7-5 was Forego, who obviously was running in the Carter strictly as a prep for the Metropolitan Handicap, having come off back-to-back victories at 1 1/4 miles ...Read More
  • cigar · Pedigrees don't matter once they've already started running! You assess their ability to go longer based upon how they're finishing up in their races. · 1023 days ago ·

  • mdracing69 · The Belmont Stakes is probably one of the last dirt races that breeding still matters. That's why the Triple Crown is so hard to pull off. · 1023 days ago ·
