  • Dressage3295 · Did she get lucky? We don't know. All we know is that she finished just under 6 lengths behind DOJ, who I consider to be a tough filly. I expect Private Ensign to get better and better. · 89 days ago ·

Live Lively announced her presence on the Kentucky Oaks trail in a huge way with a front-running win over heavily favored Dreaming of Julia in the G2 Davona Dale.Read More
The odds will not be great due to the size of the field, but if you’re looking for a filly with a legitimate shot at beating Julia, look no further than Private Ensign.Read More

  • Mary Z. · ashley, floridaf, I'm going with Private Ensign, too, since we know she already likes Gulfstream Park. I see the race similarly to your view, with Dreaming Of Julia and Live Lively going for the lead, Private Ensign just winning by a small margin after closely stalking. · 92 days ago ·

Drosselmeyer’s first foal and the retirement of Redeemed have many throughout the industry discussing speed versus stamina and the implications of both. With everything revolving around money, instant gratification becomes the norm. The problem with that, however, is that early winners who break the...Read More

  • cocoa2 · "Tracks shorten distances to please trainers." I can't say why they do this, but I know it isn't to please trainers. Tracks pressure trainers to run horses more often than they should to get full cards while threatening to take away stalls should trainers not fill a huge margin that they are forced to. The classic distance is the median, the middle distance in which all horses are comfortable. I can tell you that if our horses are stretching out to 10f, or "can't get it", 10f is not the classic distance. Icy has been suggesting that 9f is our classic distance but I'll go one further - 1 mile is our classic distance. How do we fix this? We need to find a Vanderbilt who will take what happened with Pimlico and make it work with all the tracks in the country. But how do we get all the tracks together to make this one big decision or rule? A center horse racing GOVERNMENT like the senate! Each track will get a vote on bills and there will be a president. How do we achieve this? Dissolve NYRA and other small corrupt boards. Why should we do this? To improve the breed as the saying goes, to keep drugs outlawed and enforce it, to reduce the number of breakdowns and for heaven's sakes to get a grip in the Eclipse Awards and get this east coast bias the hell out of there. · 132 days ago ·
