After her neck winning thriller over Theyskens’ Theory in Saturday’s Garden City Stakes (Gr. I), I began to ponder about all of the grey and roan thoroughbreds out there today. The greats usually come few and far between but last couple years have proven different as there are a handful of them whic...Read More

  • Forego139 · Of course you want him to stay in California your afraid for him to head your way and school your best horse's, that being said, Drill has the right trainer to turn this one into a Super Star of Racing and the talent is there and most likely will display that enormous talent in the Juvenile and will send him off as the future Kentucky Derby favoritel. · 212 days ago ·

Providing trainer Bob Baffert with an amazing tenth victory in the $250,000 Del Mar Futurity, lightly-raced but talented Drill survived a bumping skirmish in the final strides to win Del Mar’s traditional Grade I closing-day headliner for two-year-olds Wednesday. Read More

  • mrsmaryzinke · There is a doubt, because it was not a clean race. Not Drill's fault, but still, tarnished. It l remains to be seen who would win in a non-controversial race. · 265 days ago ·

  • ajump08 · All questions left by the sloppy running of the race, will probably be answered soon. If not in each horses next race, then in the Breeders' Cup (God willing all stay healthy). If Majestic City struggles around two turns though, he'll probably end up in the new BC Juvenile Sprint, along with the other Baffert runner (Gun Boat). Can't see Drill, Creative Cause, or Basmati not at least be effective going 8.5 furlongs. · 265 days ago ·

Just watched the video. Was the last furlong really run in less than 11 seconds!?!?! 1:20 1/5 is an impressive time especially with the infraction

  • ajump08 · It was actually 1:22 1/5, they came back and adjusted the incorrect teletimer. I thought something was fishy when i saw a first quarter over 23 seconds, and a 1:20 1/5 track record abolishing time. Still not shabby though. · 266 days ago ·
