What the Nation is saying about Sensational Slam...

Brilliant Speed, unhurried in the early going under Joel Rosario, stormed down the middle of the track to nip Twinspired at the wire in Saturday's Grade 1 Blue Grass Stakes at Keeneland. Read More
  • bband · Good work if you had Brilliant Speed. This horse was tough to have in a wide open race. I agree that Twinspired ran very well. But it's hard to bank on any of these doing well at Churchill. Then again, Paddy O'Prado looked like a turf horse last year, before running a good third in the Derby. · 407 days ago ·

The field was drawn today for Keeneland’s historic Blue Grass Stakes with 12 three-year-old colts entering to run for the winner’s share of the $750,000 in the traditional Kentucky Derby prep. Heading the field will be last fall’s Kentucky Jockey Club Stakes winner, Santiva. The bay colt is trained ...Read More

  • miracleshappen · i think king congie will be able to pull of a win and upset santiva. today while I was in school the name king congie just popped into my head from out of nowhere. It seemed familiar but I couldn't figure out where i heard the name from. turns out he is in the blue grass. was it a sign? i don't know but im not sold on this santiva colt yet. · 408 days ago ·

  • ArturoLaguna · Thead"or- I hope for the sake of the horse and the connections that my ruminations are proven incorrect. As a former international corporate banker, I just don't see Mr. Repole the successful entrepreneur that we know would even countenance gelding a 2 yr old champion. Even if UM doesn't run in or win the KD, he will still be on much demand as a commercial sire in view of his precociousness. · 412 days ago ·

  • Thead'or · If Uncle Mo isn't a longer distance horse as we hoped, he would do the racing world a severe justice in gelding this horse. We need sturdier horses, and IF, and I say IF, Uncle Mo isn't that. Why take him to the breeding shed? Hes a very wealthy man, he doesn't need the money. Uncle Mo could be an icon of the racing world. · 412 days ago ·

I love the way he kept coming and coming in the Capossela. It would be neat to see Bobby Flay in the Derby limelight but I think they'll be smart with this one....maybe go the Kentucky Derby Trial route. He could be something special in 6 to 7 1/2 furlongs as a sprinting closer.
Grade 3 Gotham hero Stay Thirsty, Grade 3 Tom Fool victor Calibrachoa and Fred “Cappy” Capossela winner Sensational Slam all came out of Saturday’s stakes wins in great shape, assistant Jonathan Thomas reported from trainer Todd Pletcher’s barn.   “They look great, they ate their dinners up, a...Read More
Sensational Slam, returning from a six-month layoff and competing over conventional dirt for the first time, made an inexorable charge to win the $65,000 Fred “Cappy” Capossela for owner Bobby Flay on Saturday at Aqueduct Racetrack.   A two-time stakes winner against Ontario-breds over Woodbin...Read More
Juveniles take to the turf Friday for the seventh renewal of the Grade 3, $100,000 With Anticipation Stakes, which trainer Todd Pletcher will attempt to win for the second consecutive year.   In 2009, Pletcher saddled Interactif to an eye-catching 4 ¼-length victory in the race after being imp...Read More
A $240K OBS Select Two Year Old, Sensational Slam has a fantastic pedigree. He has Rasmussen Facto inbreeding (inbred to a superior mare within five generations) to two excellent dams. The first is Tamerett. She is Gone West’s second dam, and she produced Tentam, the second sire of San Romano. Sex Appeal is the other notable mare. She produced Sensational fourth dam, Northern Prancer and her full brother El Gran Senor, who is Gone West’s damsire. Additionally, Sensational Slam’s dam was a multiple stakes winning sprinter.
