How does Game On Dude stack up against America's greatest geldings of recent years...Read More
  • Show All 11 Comments
  • ILuvTurfRacing · Before I say what I'm about to say, I'd like it noted for the record that I'm a huge fan of Game on Dude, and admire this horse a ton!! That said, I'm not sure the word "Great" actually applies to Game on Dude? I think he probably has as much heart and pure desire to win as any gelding racing in America, or any horse period for that matter. But 6-wins, 4-places, and 1-show in 15 lifetime starts is a long way from being labeled "Great" in my view. TJMO. · 466 days ago ·

  • xmango93x · Could be the best since Lava Man, but I am so biased toward Better Talk Now that I'm probably ineligible. I don't think I'll ever love a racehorse as much as I love that old gelding. Of course, that's because he was "THE horse" for me - the one who got me into racing when the most beautiful black horse I'd ever seen won the 2004 Breeders' Cup. This sport needs more great geldings that stick around and build fan bases. I don't think he was ever as popular as a horse like Lava Man, but to me Brass Hat was another one of those geldings that just stole my heart. The old, classy type that doesn't always win but always gives an honest account of himself. Evening Attire also comes to mind. Right now, I'll say Game on Dude is the best since Lava Man, but it'll take a lot to out-do that. Well Armed was a terrific horse on his day, also, but I'll put GOD above him based on consistency. · 462 days ago ·

While this Saturday's stakes races at Gulfstream are quite appealing, the rest of the card is full of intrigue with prime pedigrees in the 3-year-old races. In race 6, a maiden special weight going a mile on the turf for fillies, one of the most anticipated debuts of the season is…Read More

The role of leader for the $750,000 Santa Anita Handicap on March 6 is up for grabs. Either the $200,000 Strub Stakes for 4-year-olds next Saturday or the $150,000 San Antonio Handicap next Sunday should help fill that role.Read More

Wynn Las Vegas released their Future Book odds for the 2009 Breeders' Cup at Santa Anita. Leading the way in the Classic is the undefeated filly Zenyatta (10-1) and Einstein (10-1) as co-favorites. Read More
  • arazi · I think the future books are interesting as they are wide open this year. There are no standouts in the older division, and with polytrack, the Europeans are a factor more than ever. Some interesting plays to consider are: - Colonel John at 18-1 off his tremendous turf return at Del Mar - Rail Trip at 25-1 off a dominating run in the Hollywood Gold Cup - Macho Again at 30-1 based on his ability to run big in major events I'm not sure about 12-1 on a European that may or may not come, but would love to see super horse Sea the Stars come for Breeders' Cup. The Wynn put together a deep future book that should be great to get bettors started. I actually wish the Breeders' Cup still did those future wagers... they were a lot of fun. · 1371 days ago ·

  • mshutty · Look to hear more from Informed as the season progresses. Seems to be coming into his own at the right time. Gutsy peformance by Mast Track today in a race that set up perfectly for him. Well Armed was the perfect bet against coming off the layoff in his 6 year old season after a bias aided victory in Dubai last March. · 1385 days ago ·

There is this racetrack theory called the “Dubai Bounce,” which says that horses who make the trip to the Middle East emirate for the world's richest race, the $6 million Dubai World Cup in March, aren't the same when they come back from the trip. Not even the race winner.Read More
