  • bigbrown2332 · I've been following him since his Connaught Cup score in 2008, it's nice to see the Canadian horses do well. I don't think he likes the surface at Keeneland though, but I think he should be a horse for the Breeders Cup Turf. I really like this horse and I think he's going to be really solid this year. · 755 days ago ·

Jockey Mike Smith has only ridden 13 mounts at Fair Grounds Race Course & Slots during a career that spans more than 26 years in the saddle, but his three victories here include a score aboard Daytona in the 2008 edition of the Grade II Fair Grounds Handicap and a win on Concern in the 1995 run...Read More
Alex and JoAnn Lieblong’s Telling, winner of Saratoga’s Grade I Sword Dancer Invitational the last two summers, was traveling Friday when Metzi Hobby, wife of trainer Steve Hobby but also groom, companion and chauffeur for the 7-year-old grass specialist, was reached somewhere around Lafayette, Lou...Read More
Alex and JoAnn Lieblong’s Telling, winner of the last two renewals of Saratoga’s prestigious Grade I Sword Dancer Invitational Handicap, will journey to New Orleans later this week from his winter home in Hot Springs, Arkansas, to shoulder the top impost of 122 pounds in the Grade III Fair Grounds ...Read More
Prince Will I Am, the talented 3-year-old who was disqualified from second to 10th in the Breeders’ Cup Marathon (gr. III) last out which led to an ugly post-race incident between jockeys, makes his return in the $150,000 W.L. McKnight Handicap (gr. IIT) Dec. 18 at Calder Casino & Race Course.Pr...Read More
Winchester unleashed a powerful stretch run to collar favored Paddy O’Prado and win the 34th renewal of the Grade 1, $500,000 Joe Hirsch Turf Classic Invitational at Belmont Park on Saturday afternoon.   Winchester sat well-reserved at the back of the pack as Interpatation, last year’s Turf Cl...Read More
In Saturday’s Grade 1, $500,000 Joe Hirsch Turf Classic Invitational at Belmont Park, top turf 3-year-old Paddy O’Prado will face a host of new challenges.   Opposing older horses for the first time in his career, Paddy O’Prado will also get his first test at 1 ½ miles. Given the way the colt ...Read More
Each year, it seems the Breeders’ Cup Turf (gr. IT) paints the same bleak picture for the American grass horses. Whether it’s Conduit, who captured the last two BC Turfs, or the 10-1 Red Rocks in 2006, or the 1,2,3,4 Euro blitz in 2005, the Americans have had a tough time defending their home turf. Read More

  • medlocke · Difficult, but not impossible. Goldikova is still on top of her game. But she has lost a step from her 2008 and 2009 Breeders Cup Mile-Turf victories. I think the 2010 B.C. Mile-Turf will prove to be Goldikova at her most vulnerable in any of her three attempts. If Sidney's Candy run's the 8 furlongs of the B.C. Mile anything at all like he ran the 8-1/2 furlongs of the La Jolla Handicap, setting a new Del Mar turf course record for 8-1/2 furlongs in his only lifetime start on turf, I think he has a big chance. He ran those 8-1/2 furlongs like he was in a 6 furlong sprint race. Also, if the Court Vision that showed up and won the 2010 Woodbine Mile run's that well in the B.C.Mile-Turf? He's got a very realistic chance at beating the Euro's as well. I'd say the Euro's have an advantage. But America does have a couple of turf mile contenders in Sidney's Candy and Court Vision that are more than capable of springing the upset. JMO. · 976 days ago ·

Telling demonstrated his affinity for Saratoga Race Course on Saturday by rallying along the inside to win the Grade 1, $500,000 Sword Dancer Invitational for the second straight year.   Deftly ridden by Garrett Gomez, Telling received a clear trip as he raced in midpack behind fractions of 48....Read More
Saturday’s $500,000 Sword Dancer Invitational at Saratoga Race Course has attracted an intriguing group that includes a horse who could give his locally based trainer his first Grade 1 victory, two horses who have combined to win the last three renewals of the race, and a pair of runners who are shi...Read More
A field of nine, including five Grade or Group 1 winners, will assemble at Monmouth Park this Saturday for the Grade 1, $750,000 BetFair/TVG United Nations Stakes. The U.N., one of the most anticipated events of the summer season, will go as race 10 on the 12-race program. Among those entered in th...Read More
A strong field of older horses, including a couple of wild cards, is lining up to go in the $750,000 Betfair/TVG United Nations Stakes (G1), which kicks off the Independence Day weekend festivities on Saturday, July 3.

One of these days 9-year-old Brass Hat will show signs of slowing down. It might be later this year, it could be in 2011, or maybe, it won't be until he is in his teens. When that time comes, Buff Bradley, who trains the remarkable homebred gelding for his father, Fred Bradley, will be the firs...Read More
In the sale ring, on the racetrack and in the breeding shed, A.P. Indy has been a star. The son of Seattle Slew topped the 1990 Keeneland July yearling sale when he sold for $2.9 million. He was the champion 3-year-old and Horse of the Year in 1992, ...Read More
Though three of the Euros top distance horses -- Mastercraftsman, Rip Van Winkle, and Twice Over -- are being pointed to either the Classic (gr. I) or Dirt Mile (gr. I), they still hold the upper hand on the Americans for the Nov. 7 Turf.Read More
The fourth time was the charm for Interpatation, who staged an improbable come-again upset over odds-on Gio Ponti to win Saturday's $600,000 Joe Hirsch Turf Classic as the rank outsider at Belmont Park. Read More
Castleton Lyons’ Gio Ponti, the undisputed leader in the U.S. turf male division, will bid for a fifth consecutive Group 1 win on grass in the $600,000 Joe Hirsch Turf Classic Invitational Stakes (G1) on Saturday at Belmont Park.Read More
  • Medlocke · I really can't see this colt losing on grass, even at a 11/2. I'd just love to see what he could do on dirt or sythetics. The only other horse that would remotely have a chance to beat Gio Ponti on grass, in my opinion, might be Battle of Hastings. But even though he too is an excellent turf horse I'd say even his chances would be slim. I don't think either of them have ever been a 11/2, but I like Gio Ponti's chances to win at that distance better than BOH. · 1329 days ago ·

  • horses · Gio Ponti is awesome. The only way I see him losing Saturday, is if Presious Passion freaks on the lead and never stops... but it would have to be pretty firm turf for that to happen... · 1328 days ago ·

One of the biggest prices on the board, Telling sat the cozy mid-pack trip and took advantage of a strong pace to win the Sword Dancer. The old veteran Better Talk Now ran a valiant second while Brass Hat was third.Read More
