  • Floridaf · Animal Kingdom looked good in his return. He did not face the toughest of fields, but the race was certainly a nice stepping stone. I am eager to see how it goes from here. · 91 days ago ·

  • JohnNicoletti · Shackelford is one tough horse, who loves to be in front. Not necessarily on the lead, but close. Love that horse. He always gives a giant effort. · 95 days ago ·

  • tonyzag · I was looking fora better performance from others in the race. Hymn Book is a nice horse. Handicapping the race, I felt others were positioned better to win. He was a complete surprise to me · 97 days ago ·

4,8,10 box exacta

The main track at Gulfstream was still listed as sloppy today. Unless the track does some quick drying out, Ruler On Ice's chances are looking better and better, as are Flat Out's.
when AK will run?......
Shackleford is just one many hoping to answer big questions in the 56th running of the Donn Handicap...Read More

  • travel_vic · Gulfstream has been running early on the main just abou the while meeting. Any horses not closer than about 4 lengths at the 6 furlong call in routes, have not done well.....When it is wet that is even more a factor · 102 days ago ·
