AmbitiousD · Brian, we must have had similar wavelengths today in our thinking. I was pondering which of AP Indy's sons will be remembered as "The greatest producing son of AP Indy." Right now Malibu Moon is certainly one of 4 that come to mind, with Pulpit, Bernardini, and Mineshaft being the other three. · 9 days ago ·

Beholder Sizzles in Santa Anita Sprint

Exciting juvenile filly Beholder demolished a first-condition allowance field at Santa Anita Thursday, winning by 11 lengths while completing the six furlong distance in 1:09.00, the fastest clocking of the Autumn Meet.Read More

mdracing69 · Beholder, smashing 11-length winner of Thursday’s six-furlong fourth race in 1:09, fastest clocking at that distance thus far this meet, likely will go on to the Breeders’ Cup at Santa Anita on Nov. 2 and 3, but Richard Mandella was undecided on the race for the 2-year-old daughter of Henny Hughes. “I’m 50-50 between the Juvenile Fillies and the Juvenile Fillies Sprint,” the Hall of Fame trainer said Friday morning. “Depending on how she acts next week, we’ll make a decision. She cruised along so easy it’s just amazing. Garrett (Gomez) said he felt like he could do whatever he wanted with her, so we’ll wait and see.” · 228 days ago ·

medlocke · There's a few horses coming to Woodbine from the UK for this year's Woodbine Mile. But the best of the lot will definitely be Side Glance, IMO. Side Glance has been on a bit of roll in the UK of late in mile turf races. He won the listed Paradise Stakes at Ascot and the listed Royal Windsor Stakes at Windsor over a mile. Went back to Ascot and finished 3rd behind Dick Turpin in the G2 Summer Mile Stakes. And most recently, Side Glance just defeated Dance and Dance at Salisbury in the G3 Sovereign Stakes over a mile. Dance and Dance will also be in the Woodbine Mile field as well. · 616 days ago ·
