What the Horse Racing Nation is saying about Zeewat...

Update on Kentucky Derby contenders that are off of the trail, or that have missed training time. (As of March 31, 2013) Read More
off the Trail after coming out of a bad trip in the El Camino Real. 60 days off at least.
G3 El Camino Real Derby at Golden Gate Fields, run at 1 1/8 miles over the main synthetic Tapeta surface. In 31 runnings (1982-2012) the El Camino Real Derby has produced just one Kentucky Derby winner (Charismatic-1999) and two Kentucky Derby runners-up (Cavonnier-1996 and Casual Lies-1992). Read More
Southern California shipper Dice Flavor, whose only four starts had been on grass for trainer Paddy Gallagher, burst away from the field past mid-stretch to easily win the $200,000 El Camino Real Derby (gr. III) in an upset at Golden Gate Fields Feb. 16. Read More
Zeewat looks to win Northern California's major Kentucky Derby prep for the home team. Read More
Was moving very well until he got caught up in the chain reaction traffic and lost his hole to go through.
There were no stakes races on the Kentucky Derby 2013 trail last weekend but graded action heats back up this week with the El Camino Real Derby, San Vicente, and Southwest. Before the aforementioned U.S. Derby preps commence, my former top ranked juvenile Fortify makes his much anticipated sophomor...Read More
I am very interested in this horse to see what path he takes on Derby trail.
Vyjack jumped onto many Kentucky Derby watch lists after his tenacious victory in the Jerome. How far will his pedigree take him? Read More

It was another impressive performance from Zeewat. The Jerry Hollendorfer trainee continued Nor Cal dominance on Saturday, winning the $100,000 California Derby by a measured half-length. The margin of victory was small but the race itself was large in the scope of things. He broke slowly under jock...Read More
  • BrianZipse · Great shot of the start, Don ... unfortunately, I am on the doubter side of things. This one does not have the same kind of potential that we saw in Nonios last year. · 130 days ago ·

  • marylandgq · Nice insight on Zeewat, Don. I'll take the counterpoint (or "non-doubter" side). That unimpressive loss in the Tim Conway came at 6f, a distance no Harlan's Holiday runner relishes. As you pointed out, the winner (Merit Man) came back to destroy a quality field in the "Bid" stakes @ GP. Add the fact that Zeewat has won on dirt (@ Santa Rosa) and this (CAL Derby) was part of the maturation process. To throw in some "Doubter" fuel... on Sunday @ GG (day after Cal Derby), a 1 1/16 race was run in the same exact time (1:46.50), by $4k Claimers, OUCH! Regardless, Zeewat is on my Watch List, but he'll eventually have to ship to get enough Derby points, cuz 10 (if he wins El Camno Real Derby) won't be enough to run in Derby. · 129 days ago ·

He looked good yesterday.
He is a good one and keeps looking better in each race.
Saturday, the $100,000 California Derby will be center stage at Golden Gate Fields. Seven three-year-olds will walk up to the starting gate, with Kentucky Derby hopes at least somewhere in the minds of their connections. Yes you heard right. Seven horses. Seven. The California Derby used to be race ...Read More

So now we look ahead to 2013. The easiest prediction centers around Baze. Barring injury, Baze should eclipse the 12,000 win mark in his career as he needs just 186 wins for the milestone. Assuming Baze has his usual three hundred plus win season, he should hit the mark sometime around June. Now we ...Read More
