What the Nation is saying about California Flag...

Bad start. He was pinned and he had no ways
Can't say he'll win but I'm excited to see him make a run. The downhill course at Santa Anita is *always* fun. if only Caracortado could've made an appearance.

We’re just hoping that 6 ½ (furlongs) is in his range. His optimal races have been at 5 and 5 ½, but he did run well here as a 2-year-old.”Read More

  • byebyebernie · I'm telling you right now, WATCH OUT for Richard's Kid in the classic, I think he's got a good shot to win it. I'm still trying to figure out why they didn't ship Shanghai Bobby out to California sooner. · 202 days ago ·

  • rafirox · Richard's Kid has lost to Game On Dude a bunch, and Nonios, he is always fast closing for third, he needs more distance. Game On Dude's best isn't ten, but he has wins at the distance. I disagree, he should have been placed in the marathon. · 202 days ago ·

Like mother, like daughter. No doubt that is what many fans were thinking after Ran Jan Racing’s Moulin de Mougin won Sunday’s seventh race, a maiden event, in her second career start. Trained by Richard Mandella and ridden by Corey Nakatani, the filly was making her first try down Santa Anita’s uni...Read More

Good news. California Flag breezes 3 furlongs in 35.40 at Del Mar yesterday!
Does anyone know what is going on with California Flag? I heard there haven't been any works for him..
Four races after the venerable California Flag registered his seventh career stakes victory in Saturday’s Grade III, $100,000 San Simeon Handicap, another 5-1 shot, 4-year-old filly Capital Plan, gained her first stakes win in Santa Anita’s 64th running of the Grade II, $150,000 Santa Barbara Handic...Read More
