What the Horse Racing Nation is talking about...

It’s been nearly two years since George and Lori Hall’s Ruler On Ice and Pants On Fire faced off in the Haskell Invitational in 2011. But this Saturday, the duo, collectively known as “Fire” and “Ice” are entered in Monmouth’s $75,000 Majestic Light Stakes at a mile and 70 yards. Read More

Running in claimers! $32,500... hmm, that's a lot of bottlecaps
Any mares bred to him yet?
  • likin sparks · Hope so, I will always remember his last two races going 1 1/2 gate to wire, Ramon Dominguez was awesome with him and let the horse do the work. · 38 minutes ago ·

News?
@ Mary Z-He's entered at Canterbury Park on Sunday May 26th in race #6 going 7 1/2 F on the turf. I didn't know if you were aware of it or not.
  • Mary Z. · Yes, gelded1, I saw that he's going shorter and up against the one that beat him at Turf Paradise. Still have to check this race out further, but Porfido is in my virtual stable, so I receive e-mail alerts, but thank you for remembering that I follow him. I might just watch the Canturbury race, if available at espn, and wait until Monday to wager. · 52 minutes ago ·

I don't think he gets enough credit as a sire and I really wish he would get some good mares
Was a surprise guest tonight a Charles Town, he dusted the field in a 6 1/2f gallop, never broke a sweat. Huge horse, looked great Kathy!
It wouldn't be a huge upset, because she'll likely be from between 4-1 to 6-1 by the time they go to post, but I very much like Viztoria's chances to pull the upset and win the G1 Irish 1000 Guineas on Sunday. In 4 career starts to date, Viztoria has done almost everything right. She's 4-3-1-0 with a listed and G3 win and a G2 2nd behind Penny's Picnic in France. 1st-Viztoria 2nd-Big Break 3rd-Just The Judge 4th-Snow Queen.
For Johnny V, the path to 5,000 goes through the Belmont Park multi-graded stakes race card on Memorial Day. With mounts in all four of those stakes, he has a good chance at getting closer to that milestone on Monday.Read More
  • BrianZipse · Winning #5,000 on Memorial Day would be a neat trick ... Johnny V has been one of the best for a long time now. · 1 hour ago ·

He hates synthetics and should never be put on it agaiin.

  • Dressage3295 · Good, but not great. Like likin said- he should have been given a prep race. You can't expect a horse to perform at his best after a year off. He had no business being in that G3 race. With that being said, he could very well like synthetics, though I think they should just stick to dirt with him. Don't fix what isn't broken. On a side note, I don't think that 8f is his best distance. Personally, I'd like him to try 10f · 1 hour ago ·

  • Floridaf · That sounded a bit snarky, so I do apologize. It's hard to explain. I do like the colt because of his sire, but his markings have a lot to do with it, too. He reminds me a bit of Shackleford due to the large blaze he sports. · 1 hour ago ·

A ground-saving ride from jockey Luis Saez helped Tannery overcome soft turf, stiff headwinds and odds of 10-1 to score her first American victory in Saturday’s 55th running of the Grade 2, $200,000 Sheepshead Bay at Belmont Park.   Read More
  • yukichan · I wasn't that tuned into this race until hearing discussion on HRTV about betting the Irish horse, because the turf would be very soft and weather cool at Belmont. Especially at her morning line odds. On a whim, and thinking about comments TV has made (bet the Irish on turf), I decided she was worth $10. :) Happy, happy, happy! · 2 hours ago ·

Brown Almighty's connections stated via his official Facebook page that the Big Brown colt would be given a 90 day break after finishing a disappointing 9th in the G3 Arlington Classic as the 4th betting choice.
Will have Rosie up for the Belmont after their great run in Race 13 on Preakness Day.
At the distance, Kizuna may prove too much to handle for Logotype in tomorrow's Japanese Derby.

Another tough race for this one but still got second.
P4 alive to this one will pay a tad under 5K. Also alive to the Headley firster who I actually like to win the finale. Another favorite getting hammered on the board in the 9 which I didn't use and don't like to win.

70th so far, he has never been huge on the sire rankings with 22nd last year, 24th the year before, but without To Honor And Serve, Stay Thirsty, the sire of New York runners may be done.

  • kay.robinett · Darley did send world class mares to him for his first crops (rumors have it that they turned down Oatsee!!!). Not sure about later crops. I actually have more respect for both Tapit and Malibu Moon from the Slew line. Both worked their way up into being prominent stallions starting with lesser mares and lesser stud fees. Now that they are getting really good mares, their next few crops should only get better and better. · 3 hours ago ·

Scares me the most in the 8th @ BHP. Didn't use him in my tix, looks great on the track, and is sitting pretty @ double digit odds right now. :/
