What the Nation is saying about the 2009 Breeders' Cup Marathon (LS)...

They went 1¾ miles, and yet it was only an inch or two that separated victory from defeat Friday in the $454,500 Breeders' Cup Marathon. On the wire, it was the aptly named Man of Iron beating Cloudy's Knight in an exciting opening to the 2009 Breeders' Cup series at Santa Anita.Read More
Man of Iron just got the best of a game Cloudy's Knight in the '09 Marathon. The winner is out of outstanding producer Better Than Honour (Rags to Riches, Jazil, Casino Drive). Euros on the board early. Man of Iron (1st) - $14.80, $7.20, $4.40 Cloudy's Knight (2nd) - $7.40, $4.60 Mastery (3rd) - $2.40 $1 Exacta - $60.10 $1 Trifecta - $225.10 .10 cent Superfecta - $284.55 Gangbuster (4th)
With royal breeding, Man of Iron just outgamed Cloudy's Knight to the wire in the Marathon to kick-off the card at Santa Anita. Heavily favored Mastery was third.Read More

  • dustino140 · The BC brass realize that this is a boring race that nobody cares about, and they've positioned it accordingly on the schedule, at a time when half of their 'target audience' can't watch it. Too bad they couldn't switch it with the Distaff. · 866 days ago ·

  • ruby · Dustino - you're spot on... I was just trying to be nice about it. But I did hit the tri a couple times on this thing last year... so I do have a bit of a soft spot for the Marathon or whatever they call it... · 866 days ago ·
