What the Horse Racing Nation is saying about Omega Star...

I am going with him today as it has been a stellar day for me...I think he'll like the extra distance.... 8-1 not bad.
After chasing Flashback and Goldencents in his final two starts of Santa Anita’s Winter/Spring meet, Tiz a Minister will drop in class for the $300,000 Snow Chief Stakes Saturday at Betfair Hollywood Park.Read More
Tiz a Minister, who finished third in the Grade II San Felipe Stakes and fourth in last Saturday’s Santa Anita Derby, and Doinghardtimeagain, who won the inaugural Soviet Problem Stakes last Dec. 9, are among 203 nominees to the 14th California Gold Rush.Read More
happy to see him win the Echo Eddie stakes today:)

Joe Talamo hopes hard work pays off when he rides Omega Star in Saturday’s San Felipe Stakes. The 23-year-old jockey will be aboard the California-bred son of Candy Ride for the first time in a race when he tackles heavyweights Flashback and Goldencents in the Grade II test for 3-year-olds at a mile...Read More

  • travel_vic · AIR is beautiful but it usually takes 36 hours or more to dry out. You see the surface not the softness below. Fast tracks, on the whole, don't drain that effectively when wet...They have a great thing at Anita in these little plastic strips in the dirt that take up moisture so it does not float on top....Great addition where it rains a lot. Same technology is at Hastings. · 74 days ago ·

Friday’s Santa Anita Park Recap – March 8 Wet fast main track and off the turf again. A pair of six furlong wire jobs. Rafael Bejarano and Garrett Gomez both booted home a pair. On the ticket front I tabbed three Primary (Toledo Eddie, Castletown, Callous Effect) winners and one Secondary (Mum’s Tru...Read More

If he lives up to his potential, watch out
As Trevor Denman says, "Omeeega Star" worked 6 furlongs yesterday in 1:13.80 (2/13), in preparation for the upcoming San Felipe stakes.
Omega Star breezed 6 furlongs at Hollywood Park on Monday in 1:14 flat (4/14) in preparation for the San Felipe Stakes.
Weewinnin, who blew out the Betfair Hollywood Park toteboard at 60-1 to win the state-bred King Glorious Stakes on Dec. 16, will tackle two turns for the first time in Saturday’s $300,000 California Breeders Champion Stakes at one mile. Read More
looking forward to seeing him run saturday R7 at SA:)
Has to be one of the best strides I've seen on a 3YO to date. This gelding could be for real if Shirreffs even points him towards the Derby
John Shirreffs' other buzz horse breezed 5 furlongs this morning on Hollywood's all-weather track in 1:00.20 (7/44).
John Shirrefs' classics breezed 4 furlongs "handily" this morning at BHP in :50 flat (27/30).
Just finished updating this one's profile--Steve Haskin's first list of Derby contenders came out today and he was the only one I hadn't heard of. His debut at Santa Anita (on December 31, which highly conveniently allows him to avoid the so-called "Apollo curse") was quite impressive, and he's by Candy Ride out of a Fusaichi Pegasus mare, inbred to Lyphard and from the same Alzao line on his damside, much like Japanese Triple Crown winner Deep Impact. I've been a sucker for a good Shirreffs horse for several years, (and I ain't gonna mention no names ;) so this one will definitely be on my watch list as we go down the Triple Crown trail!
Nice win by this young gelding. One to watch to improve off this win
