  • amfuller · Ok I feel a little better about the weight, I looked back at the Vanity and with the exception of Life is Sweet, which was carring 122, the other entries were btw 13-18 lbs lighter. Things can be different on any given day but this makes me feel somewhat better about the wieghts for today. · 795 days ago ·

  • grey32 · First I'm glad Zen's lousy connections finally realize what a terrific horse she is and now are going to let her prove it. Instead of trying to cheat their way in. Second there's way to much made of the weight, remember Zen is a very big girl and she most likely out weighs her rivals by 100-200 pounds or more. She's up to the task. Maybe this year she will run as she should have last year(no fault of hers) and HOY will be hers. RA was hands down HOY 2009, doesn't mean she was the better horse but; she sure had a better campaign. · 795 days ago ·

Tuscan Evening arrived in this country a little more than a year ago, winless in 11 starts. Since then, under the care of future Hall of Fame trainer Jerry Hollendorfer, she has developed into one of the best female middle-distance grass runners on the West Coast, with an admirable 7 wins in 11 star...Read More
Santa Anita officials on Friday said they are "discussing the possibility" of changing the conditions of the Grade 1, $250,000 Santa Margarita Invitational on March 13 from a handicap to a stakes race, a development that could result in Zenyatta carrying a much more favorable weight assignment.Read More
The presence of Stardom Bound, the champion 2-year-old filly of 2008, didn't scare anyone out of the $150,000 La Canada Stakes (gr. II) Feb. 14 at Santa Anita. Fourteen 4-year-old fillies are entered in 1 1/8-mile Valentine's Day event over the Pro-Ride main track.Read More

Heavy choice Tight Precision, closing fast on the outside, surged past Bootleg Annie and Pretty Unusual close to home to post her first stakes victory in the $300,000 Sunshine Millions Filly & Mare Turf at Santa Anita.Read More
Trainer Barry Abrams is known for frequently bringing back his horses on short rest. When he saddles Grade 3 winner Unusual Suspect in the $500,000 Sunshine Millions Classic Stakes on Saturday at Santa Anita Park, however, he will do so following a layoff of more than 3 1/2 months.Read More

Jockey Chantal Sutherland earned her second grade II victory in as many days when she guided 29-1 outsider Pretty Unusual to win the El Encino Stakes at Santa Anita Jan. 17. Favored Stardom Bound was second.Read More
Jockey Chantal Sutherland, who finished second in the standings at Woodbine last year, gave Pretty Unusual a smart ride to pull an upset in Sunday's Grade 2 El Encino Stakes. Sutherland ranged up behind the leaders with a quarter-mile remaining. Just when it appeared she may have to check her mount,...Read More
An overflow field in the American Oaks lead by Gozzip Girl is the highlight for Sunday's racing action. The daughter of Dynaformer has won three of her last four starts but faces a quality field including Well Monied and Mrs. Kipling.Read More
  • mshutty · Drysdale reported this morning in a taped interview that he has doubts about Mrs. Kiplings ability to get the distance in the Oaks and the outside post position isn't going to help. · 1046 days ago ·

  • christiecat · Good to know. From the replays, the other local Well Monied who has two very good wins at 1 1/8, looks like she has more to give and will appreciate the added distance. Gozzip Girl comes out of the Sands Point, which IMO was weak on competition for a G2. Warm Shower (2nd) was coming off a MSW win on the poly at KEE and Bluegrass Princess (3rd) ran 6th in the G3 Boiling Springs at MTH. I pay attentioni to trainer quotes and Zucker, trainer of Well Monied, called Euro Apple Charlotte "scary." · 1046 days ago ·
