Paulick Report Special: What's in a Number?

Only the most obsessive and committed handicappers take the time to see every race at their primary track, and even then a horse sooner or later will ship in from points largely unknown – say Woodbine, for example – and complicate the understanding of a race.Read More

Alabama Profile: Devil May Care

Better known as a top breeding operation that has produced more than 120 stakes winners, including Venetian Way (1960 Kentucky Derby) and Pike Place Dancer (1996 Kentucky Oaks), Glencrest Farm has remained relatively low-profile when it comes to racing horses. This year, however, the small s...Read More

arazi · I saw this coming a mile away. No, it's not enough for Pletcher to have 6 Derby contenders out of 20... when he can have 6 out of 19. Yes, next will come the talk of how they are not sure about Devi May Care, and then want to cross-enter her in both races. Ultimately, the plan will be to scratch and leave one less competitor on the sideline. Don't put it past these guys. · 660 days ago ·

mdracing69 · You might be right arazi. Latest quote from Pletcher regarding Devil May Care - “Actually, I checked with the racing office and we can enter her in both races. We’re aware of how that can affect other horses and we don’t want to be in the way of keeping horses out of either race, but on the other hand we’ve got to do right by our horse, too. You might have a case where she might draw the 20 (post position) in the Derby and the six in the Oaks and that would play into any decision. We’ll have to see.” · 656 days ago ·

bband · That's really spineless of the Churchill racing office to let him do that. So basically, according to these rules, you could take any Oaks runner with decent earnings, supplement to the Derby, and start excluding horses left and right. Nice rules. · 656 days ago ·

What's in a Name?

I don’t know about you guys, but when it comes to handicapping a race, the name of a horse is a huge factor for me. Even though I can read a program and tell you what each statistic means, and whose past performances are the best, the name still stands out above everything else on the page.Read More

luvzenyatta · I'll never forget the first time I saw the name "Invasor", I was in Vegas and I immediately strode to the window and put $$$ down, and I'll be damned...the horse won! I know you guys want to know my favorites:LOL,,they are Zenyatta of course,very befitting a champion, her dad, Street Cry, Barbaro, Storm Cat(love him), and my derby horse Sidneys Candy, I've always been in love with Candy Ride and his name, some disagree with me but I think Secretariat was an awesome name too. Let's hear from you guys...what names do you like? :) · 665 days ago ·

ruby · If you look at the list of Derby winners, they almost all have a Derby-winning name - Street Sense, War Emblem, Charismatic, Real Quiet, Silver Charm, etc. Lil E. Tee is the worst exception. · 665 days ago ·

humphrey · There is an unwritten rule in horse racing: NEVER name a horse something that would not look good hanging over your mantle as odd named horses hardly EVER become champions. Equipoise, Esterminator, Domino, Imp, Stage Door Johnny, Run the Gauntlet....great names. · 665 days ago ·
