What the Nation is saying about Sidney's Candy...

Trainer John Sadler reported his undefeated Oceanside Stakes winner Twirling Candy in good shape Thursday morning following the 3-year-old colt's impressive victory in Del Mar's opening-day feature.   "We'll be looking at a number of races for him," Sadler said. "If we go the traditional route...Read More
The performance of the week was turned in by Paddy O’Prado in the Grade 2 Virginia Derby. The Kentucky Derby show finisher has clearly relished a return to turf racing. He followed up a facile tally in the Colonial Turf Cup with another smashing performance over former top ten member Interactif on S...Read More
In what was essentially a match race from start to finish, Skipshot wore down Sidney’s Candy in the final strides to win the $196,000 Swaps Stakes Saturday at Hollywood Park.   The 4-1 second choice in the field of four, Skipshot tracked the prohibitive 1-5 favorite, dropped back a bit early i...Read More
The most accomplished 3-year-old in California during the Santa Anita winter meeting was Sidney's Candy, who won three stakes, including the Santa Anita Derby. The most disappointing California-based horse in the Kentucky Derby on May 1 was Sidney's Candy, who faded from contention on the final turn...Read More
Multiple graded stakes winner Sidney’s Candy will make his first start since the Kentucky Derby on May 1 when he takes on four other 3-year-olds in the $200,000 Swaps Stakes Saturday at Hollywood Park. The Swaps, which is run at 1 1/8 miles over Cushion Track, is one of a pair of Grade II races on ...Read More
For the next 10 days, the focus of the final weekend of Hollywood Park and the opening day at Del Mar is on 3-year-olds - the established main-track stars and the up-and-coming hopefuls on turf. Hollywood Park concludes its spring-summer meeting this Sunday, and the most lucrative race of the final ...Read More
Santa Anita Derby winner Sidney’s Candy and “now” horse Golden Itiz turned in their final works Sunday for the $200,000 Swaps Stakes at Hollywood Park Saturday. The Grade II Swaps is for 3-year-olds at 1 1/8 miles on Cushion Track.Read More
Alexis Barba, trainer of Alphie’s Bet, glanced at a sheet with only eight nominees for the $200,000 Swaps Stakes July 17. “It’s not big, but it’s tough,” said Barba of the Grade II test for 3-year-olds at 1 1/8 miles on Cushion Track. Expected to join Sham and Snow Chief stakes winner Alphie’s Bet a...Read More
The performance of the week was turned in by Paddy O'Prado in the Grade 2 Colonial Turf Cup. The Kentucky Derby show finisher graduated in the Grade 3 Palm Beach over the Gulfstream weeds and clearly enjoyed his turf return. He sat a ground saving tactical trip before switching out and making a deci...Read More
It is now more than two weeks since the conclusion of the Triple Crown and more than seven weeks since we have seen many of the horses that started only in the Kentucky Derby (gr. 1) presented by Yum! Brands. Four of the contenders from the Derby-Preakness-Belmont trail returned to the races recentl...Read More
The performance of the week was turned in by Trappe Shot. His razor sharp Allowance win on the Belmont Stakes undercard earned him a 105 BSF. The promising son of Tapit has now won three straight in easy fashion and will try two turns next. Trainer Kiaran McLaughlin is expected to shoot for the Trav...Read More
With spring racing nearly at an end, I find myself utterly disappointed by the quality of this year’s 3-year-old male crop. There, I said it. I know some contrarians out there will disagree, that I'm being too harsh, but after the results thus far (not to mention one of the slowest Belmont Stakes in...Read More
The performance of the week was turned in by Ibboyee in the Spend a Buck Stakes at Monmouth Park May 23. The NY-bred, trained by Todd Pletcher, turned the tables on Afleet Again and verified the strength of the G3 Withers Stakes. Note that Withers show finisher Spangled Star is pointing to the Belmo...Read More
The performance of the week was turned in by Preakness hero Lookin At Lucky. Kudos to Bob Baffert for going against the grain and giving Martin Garcia the nod over Garrett Gomez. The latter was not to blame for a troubled Derby journey but needed to be replaced from a karma perspective. The move pai...Read More
The performance of the week was turned in by Fly Down in the Grade 2 Dwyer Stakes at Belmont Park. The promising Nick Zito runner earned a 100 BSF for his romping off the pace win over Drosselmeyer and must be viewed as a major player in the Belmont Stakes. Zito also has Derby runner-up Ice Box...Read More
Up — TV ratings: The Derby overnights were the best they had been since 1992, the year Lil E. Tee won the Run for the Roses. Not sure the reason for the increase, especially considering the expected favorite, Eskendereya, dropped out the weekend before with an injury. Nevertheless, the numbers bear ...Read More
The Derby Top 10 has been changed to the Triple Crown Ten after the 136th running of the Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs May 1. Congrats to the winning team of Super Saver, Calvin Borel, Todd Pletcher, and WinStar Farm. Everything fell into place for their colt on the first Saturday in May...Read More
Todd Pletcher, Calvin Borel, and WinStar Farm do not evoke images of Cinderella. There are no ragged clothes, glass slippers, or handsome princes scripted in their story. All have been to the ball and achieved enough fame and glory to last a lifetime.Read More
Let’s be honest. This year’s Kentucky Derby was an ugly horse race. Certainly the grim weather had much to do with it, and was something we cannot control. But still, the race was ugly. Twenty horses broke out of the gate. Garrett Gomez, riding the favorite, Lookin at Lucky, broke from the inside po...Read More
WinStar Farms Super Saver, under a perfect ground saving stalk and pounce ride by Calvin Borel, won the 136th Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs, giving Todd Pletcher his elusive first Derby trophy. Read More
