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

With Triple Crown Mania come and gone, can someone just tell me who the best three-year-old is?Read More

just wondering? where did all the loyal D.Wayne Lukas fans who trashed him prior to the triple crown series go to and hide.they made it seem as though he actually forgot how to train.as a friend of mine and a very classy trainer. J J Toner always tells me. "you would be amazed how top of the shelf horses make you such a better trainer "

  • Buckpasser · One should be grateful to Henri de Kwaikowski for buying Calumet lock stock and barrel and setting up a trust fund for it as those trophies were going to dispersed to God knows where or even melted down as a number if them I believe the 75th Derby trophy was solid gold. Happy this great farm is on the upswing. · 5 hours ago ·

For what it's worth: Going into the Preakness no horse had a lower top Beyer than Oxbow. Coming out, no horse has a Beyer as high Oxbow.

With only a few more preps to run, Revolutionary has moved to the top of the list as Zipse's most likely winner of the 2013 Kentucky Derby.Read More

Orb may not be the immortal everyone thought him to be, but one loss at the hands of a bad post takes nothing away from him. He can still be great.Read More

Glad this horse could win a big one. He's a "Hard Knocking" kind of horse and took a tough route to get here so far. No one can deny it. Cashed out big on the Special/Preakness DBL, Across, and last minute a 6/All exacta! Thanks to Jon Court as well for his early rides.
Trainer D. Wayne Lukas said almost immediately after the Preakness that he hoped to try Oxbow in the 1 ½-mile Belmont Stakes.Read More

The Triple Crown series of 2013 has so far provided racing fans with thrills, chills, highs and lows. It almost seems like any other year - that is, until we consider the connections of these three year-old colts.Read More
There were nothing but smiles on the faces of those working in D. Wayne Lukas’ barn at Churchill Downs on the Sunday morning following Oxbow’s upset victory in the Preakness (Grade I). Read More

Trainer Shug McGaughey was back at his Belmont Park barn Sunday afternoon, the day after Orb’s Triple Crown bid ended with a fourth-place finish in the Preakness.

  • AmbitiousD · I've seen a lot of discussion of the slow time of Oxbow's Preakness win. He was nearly a second faster than Last Gunfighter who won by over 4 lengths at the same distance the day before. I think Pimlico was really just playing really slow this weekend. I was truley impressed with how in the consistency in Oxbow's splits (23.94, 24.66, 24.66, 24.88, 19.40). · 1 day ago ·

  • PPRS · Didnt really dawn on me until last night - but after leaving very crowded (thousands) local simulcast facility after the race how quiet it became - the air was sucked out of the place even though many tracks and much more racing going on. Made me realize how horseplayers and the gambling public in general are starving for a Triple Crown winner or at least the excitement of the possibility of one heading to the Belmont. · 1 day ago ·

I honestly hope that his odds are sensable...;o)
If you asked me what his next start should be. Id pick the G3 Matt Winn, G1 Haskell, G1 Travers, Breeders Cup Classic any argument thats not the best route for him?

Congratulations to Preakness 2013 hero Oxbow. Nobody wanted the early lead and Gary Stevens was more than happy to canter around the track and win this second jewel of the Triple Crown.Read More
The historical context of the Phipps family winning the Derby and Calumet winning the Preakness in the same year seems so "throwback" for 2013. It sure would have been something to see Oxbow and Gary Stevens wearing red and blue silks in the winner's circle today.

Oxbow did pull a Shackleford. Outstanding! Never seen a horse get dogged all year with bad post draws like Oxbow. I think it only added to his toughness and seasoning leading up to the Triple Crown races. Couldn't be more happy for him and his connections.
1. Orb (Malibu Moon) – Tabasco Cat is the only horse in the last 41 years to win the Preakness Stakes from post one and Orb likes to make wide, sweeping moves. If he is a legit Triple Crown threat the inside post will not bother him and Rosario continues to ride great. I have always liked Shug’s col...Read More
Very proud of oxbow!!! i knew Gary Stevens must have seen something special in this horse well he was right..
Oxbow looked like a Schwarzenegger before the race.... great win
