  • Floridaf · Very poignant piece, Scott. I believe that if I had been in your shoes, meeting and speaking with Randy Moss would have stood out the most (especially since I'm a Falcons fan anyway). But the point is that as much as I love football, horse racing is the only sport that can and has moved me to tears. I'm rooting to bring the sport to my home state of Georgia. In the meantime, I believe that with the added interest in Indiana racing lately, it is only a matter of time before the Breeders' Cup is run there. · 8 days ago ·

Rest easy my friends. After an afternoon of worry due to rampant rumors on social media, we can all take a deep breath. Rachel Alexandra and her Curlin foal are doing well. The following release is courtesy of Stonestreet Farms: 2009 Horse of the Year Rachel Alexandra and her six-day old colt by 200...Read More

There was quite the chat on twitter a couple of evenings ago regarding Rachel Alexandra and her new foal. Apparently, according to her caretakers, they were taken to the clinic but later proclaimed fine.Read More
She is just ranked way, way too high...but I do think she barely cracks the top 100.

  • jackie999 · She couldn't handle Persistently, Zardana or Sara Louise, so to think she ranks ahead of Sunday Silence, Easy Goer, Foolish Pleasure, Ack Ack, etc., etc., etc., really is silly. She ran some excellent races, but in the grand scheme of things she doesn't compare to the all-time greats. Zenyatta and Ruffian are in a different league from her. Lady's Secret and Inside Information are also a lot better. Rachel Alexandra is great, but if you had to give her a ranking, anywhere in the top 50 or 75 is way, way too high. · 12 days ago ·

  • racingrooter · I'm with winplaceshow. I think Ghostzapper is the best horse of the 20th century thus far. There are some other great horses mentioned here, but GZ would have left them all eating his dirt. · 14 days ago ·

  • travel_vic · From an ESPN article: "At Oaklawn Park, there will never be a Cougar Day, a Mike vs. Chantal match race, or an advertising campaign featuring exotic dancers; there will never be night racing, or camel racing or ostrich racing. At Oaklawn Park, horses and racing matter. " · 24 days ago ·

  • 12thCrown · Not sure how many of you frequent Oaklawn, so while there won't be a "Cougar Day" per se, there are plenty of eligible ladies and dudes hanging around the second level sports bar. Seriously though, it's an extremely social place where people do care about the horses. · 20 days ago ·

Many racing fans are prepared to state emphatically that Zenyatta and Rachel Alexandra are two of the best, if not THE best, fillies of the past half-century. The list from which to chose, however, is longer than most think. Below is a reminder just how extensive that list is. With almost half the y...Read More

She is ranked at #16 right now, which is about 100 spots too high. A very nice horse, but doesn't compare with the legitimate Top 100.

  • DeadHeat · I would say Grace gets it again for horse of the year. However, I do think 2012 will end the female streak. The male division looks loaded with some nice horses coming back in PrePeg, MMM, Nehro, AK, Trickmiester, etc. You also have many nice three year olds looking to step up. · 43 days ago ·
