What the Nation is saying about the 2010 Kentucky Derby (G1)...

Gemologist is coming into the 2012 Kentucky Derby at the top of his game. He boast a top class pedigree and an undefeated record. I believe Saturday will be the day he proves just how much class and talent he has.Read More

  • HorseDynasty · Paddy O' Prado is one of my favorites as well. One that I was really looking forward to watching continue his career. Extremely versatile. In addition to Northern Dancer, he has Kris S on his dam's side in that generation, another stallion often considered an outstanding sire. · 553 days ago ·

Also, the farmcam is an awesome idea to show fans a behind the scenes point of view.

Is it just me, that some of the horses that run in the Kentucky Derby lose their interest in racing? Please say that it is not just me. It didn't happen to Devil May Care or Sidney's Candy or Lookin at Lucky. But look at Mine That Bird and Supper Savor, has not won a race since.
  • Thead'or · Mine That Bird and Super Saver where trained at their peaks for the Derby and Triple Crown. MTB is obviously the better horse because he placed in all 3 races, but Super Saver just happened to be peaking at the right time. So that explains it. · 820 days ago ·

  • icyhotboo · They should not allow horses to races until age 3 nor retire until age 5 or 6. It not only would save many of these disasterous injuries began as 2 year olds but by making them race until 5 I believe the resulting increase stakes races would bring back a lot of interest.At least more than there is now · 963 days ago ·
