What the Horse Racing Nation is saying about the Acorn...

As dominant as Kauai Katie has been sprinting, Monday's Acorn Stakes should represent a major challenge.Read More

When it comes to the Breeders Cup you either come in loaded and ready rumble, or you have your one big horse in your one big race. This year there are a couple connections ready to roll into the Breeders Cup with guns a blazing. One of those is the infamous Bob Baffert.Read More

  • Floridaf · Baffert does look to be sitting pretty this year, especially since he has the home track advantage. I'm not sure that he'll win all that he has horses in; I have a few that I like better than his contingent, but he is rather loaded. · 249 days ago ·

  • dani.pugh · It is never a given that you'll win everything. The juvenile has a few nice horses. Turbulent Decent is a very good filly, the sprint division still has some nice horses and the Classic division is as deep as i've ever seen. · 249 days ago ·

  • notobsessed · Not to knock Johhnny V, but Shackleford justs runs as fast as he can from gate to wire, usually in the lead, does it really matter which jockey is on him? · 361 days ago ·

Contested earned her first Grade 1 victory in front-running fashion Monday afternoon at Belmont Park, leading at every call to win the 82nd running of the $300,000 Acorn Stakes.Read More
I’m just disappointed that the most horses we can hope to see in the three big grade 1 races at Belmont on Monday add up to a grand total of 17. I pray there are no scratches.Read More

  • annmatt · Sorry you are having a bad day, Brian! You should be pleased your Mr. Commons has a nice field of 11 in the American coming up tomorrow. One of my favorite new horses is a filly by the name of Aqsaam, and she's running in the Sheepshead Bay S at Belmont tomorrow in a FIELD OF FOURTEEN!! · 364 days ago ·

  • KyOaksRunner · Both solid numbers and I do think It's Tricky seemed to relish the slop more than Turbulent Descent. Good race by both fillies but I definitely agree, It's Tricky ran awesome. · 709 days ago ·

  • fastcarsandfasthorses · It's up on DRF now - 105 Beyer! This is the highest Beyer of any three-year old (colt or filly) going a mile or longer all year. Either this filly really loves the slop or she is maturing into a monster, or both. · 712 days ago ·
