  • DeadHeat · Capper the only problem I have with his race is that it was run in the slop. He did run a winning race, but with his record over a dry track, I can't help but be skeptical. If that race had been over a dry track he would be right there with Reveron for me. · 418 days ago ·

The ungraded, $100,000 Gulfstream Park Derby was the first stakes route opportunity for Kentucky Derby 2012 contenders to square off and newly turned three-year-old Reveron got the best of highly regarded Nick Zito runner Casual Trick. Gulfstream Park Derby (1-1-12) – 87 BSF (Reveron)... Read More
Trainer Agustin Bezara capped off a career afternoon on the New Year’s Day program when he saddled Reveron for a half-length victory in Sunday’s $100,000 Gulfstream Park Derby. Reveron, the first stakes success and third winner of the day for his trainer, pressed the early pace before taking and des...Read More
The inaugural running of the Gulfstream Park Derby at Gulfstream Park drew a tough, evenly matched field. Normally when handicapping races for two-year olds (three-year olds by race day), there are some factors that set a couple of entrants ahead of the rest of the field. This time, however, it woul...Read More

The 3-year-old class of 2012 debuts Sunday with the first running of the $100,000 Gulfstream Park Derby at 1 1/16 miles and a field of 11 with Michael Dubb’s Ancient Rome and Robert LaPenta’s Casual Trick among the likely choices to get early recognition on the Kentucky Derby (G1) and Triple Crown t...Read More
You don't have the most current races for some of these....Gold Megillah's maiden win at CD Nov. 16 was pretty impressive, with 18 1/2 length romp. Casual Trick did better in only his second race as a 2yo with a 2 1/2 length win! These are all greenies and they will improve with each outing, which these two certainly did, in a decisive fashion.
  • annmatt · For Gold Megillah, it might be important to also note that his impressive 18 1/2 length maiden win Nov. 16 was in the slop AND he has been the 1 1/16 mi distance! Just a thought! · 510 days ago ·

  • Floridaf · I am inclined to agree with you, Brian. AR gets some distance ability through his sire line, but his dam was a sprinter. He certainly looks like he will prefer the shorter distance. · 511 days ago ·

Trainer Anthony Dutrow admits he isn’t sure if his soon-to-be-3-year-old Ancient Rome will be able to stretch out around two turns, but by the time the field for Sunday’s inaugural running of the Gulfstream Park Derby hits the wire he should have a pretty good idea. “I honestly don’t know what to e...Read More
