What the Nation is saying about the 2013 San Luis Rey (G2)...

  • rafirox · That's what makes Secretariat's 2:24 and change Belmont time so impressive. 23:3, 46:3, 1:09:4..... Very fast and kept steamrolling to finish in 2:24 and change, a record that won't be broken for a long time. Second, I wouldn't make much of these records. The turf course at Santa Anita has been producing incredibly fast times. That is why the "records" were a week apart. Twilight Eclipse was the more impressive of the two, as he drew away without much effort, IMO. · 87 days ago ·

  • Mary Z. · The Pellegrini was a long time ago, but it does look like a two horse race from the probables, Slim Shadey with Gary Stevens on again? trying to last on the lead, and Interaction appreciating the added distance. Last San Luis Rey, though, Slim Shadey didn't attempt to wire. · 99 days ago ·
