War Emblem is welcome to retire at my house, when they are done trying to make him breed.
A few hours before The Haskell Invitational Bob Baffert,@Midnightlute, was tweeting about the keys to Coil’s victory. Read More

  • AndyScoggin · Hey, if those hot dogs work that well for Baffert I better try them before I bet the Pick 5 again! Seriously, Coil was very impressive with that closing performance in a good time of 1:48-2. · 192 days ago ·

  • LAZMANICK · DeadHeat……….I’m not trying to argue with you and I’m no saying that you commented one way or another. I just wondered if you had ever heard of anyone calling the Travers Saratoga’s signature race. Regarding the fields for the Haskell. They seem to be getting deeper with talent in the past few years than they used to be and I think that one reason is the 9F distance. I also agree with Mike that the Travers is the greatest race for three year olds outside the Triple Crown. The Haskell to me has always been like a Blue Grass or a Florida Derby or a Wood Memorial, a top G1, but not on the same level as the TC races and the Travers. · 197 days ago ·

  • DeadHeat · I have heard it called that and I most certainly believe in that name. However, I would disagree with you on the level of the Haskell. I would actually liken it to the Preakness, the baby child when standing next to the Derby which has so much age and prestige. While it still draws some wonderful deep and talented fields, it in no way can be called equal to the Derby. · 197 days ago ·

It may not possess all the hoopla of the Kentucky Derby, or have the “Test of Champions” nickname like the Belmont Stakes, but make no mistake, it is the middle jewel of the Triple Crown that has become the most important barometer in naming a champion come year’s end in all of American racing.

  • RaTalk_Girl · Since my Preakness picks are up in the air, I may take another look at Mucho Macho Man. The Preakness is my favorite Triple Crown race because that is when I started appreciating horseracing for more than just a gamble. I think she went 8 for 8 that season. ;) · 272 days ago ·

Sometimes there is nothing more dangerous than good old fashioned speed, and that is something The Factor has in abundance. Making every pole a winning one, The Factor, under rider Martin Garcia, powered to the lead within the first few strides and rolled to an easy six length score in today’s Rebel...Read More

  • bobstaggs2010@yahoo.com · This Horse seems to me to have that added ingredient that will help him win the Derby....he loves to run.....I believe with Baffert's wisdom and experience he will have Factor ready.....Baffert is the best and Martin Garcia is an excellent hand rider and " find the hole " Rider... and knows when to make his move..... his only downside is he likes to play a little but after all he is still very young....he seems to get in front and tease the other Horses saying "Go ahead...catch me if you can...." Hopefully Martin can make him keep his minmd on his business · 314 days ago ·

Special to HRN:  By Jim Tierney  Hall of Fame Trainer Bob Baffert has never won a Breeders’ Cup Classic. Repeat. Hall of Fame trainer Bob Baffert has never won a Breeders’ Cup Classic.

The names given race horses have always interested me. As a pedigree aficionado, I particularly appreciate the witty twist of a well-named horse, but also admire those with compelling stories behind them. And then there are those poor unfortunate beasts with overly-witty, jaw droppingly-inappropriat...Read More
Every spring in the U.S., as many as 50,000 thoroughbred mares give birth. Perhaps every thoroughbred owner dreams that, this year, a champion will be born. The odds are against it. Only a fraction of all these foals will go on to compete. And only a fraction of this fraction will become as successf...Read More
June 8, 2008 NEW YORK (AP) -- War Emblem's remarkable run for a Triple Crown ended shockingly Saturday, along with his trainer's hope to avenge two close calls, when the colt was badly beaten by 70-1 shot Sarava in the Belmont Stakes. Read More
