James Marvin

What the Nation is saying about the James Marvin...

In my opinion, there is one “utility player” currently in training today that stands head and shoulders above his peers. The only horse to win a graded stakes race at both six and nine furlongs in 2012 was Caixa Eletronica. Read More

  • ashley.tamulonis · His Charles Town Classic win shocked me. When handicapping that race, I threw him out because I considered him to be more of a sprinter. Boy was I wrong! · 78 days ago ·

  • Buckpasser · I've always liked this horse. We called them useful horses who raced a long time gave their all no matter what and many times if the circumstances were right could win the big one. Pity is that there are not enough of these guys racing. · 78 days ago ·

  • travel_vic · Last year JB closed easily on 44 flats. THis year in the last two it took him almost into the 46 range to do much....this one became ragged during the Belmont meeting and never has attained that kind of move since · 303 days ago ·

  • buds · Zito is fine. He has probably more knowledge on horses than all of os put together, but certainly mote than forego139:-) It was Rosies fault jackson bend lost. He needs to be the leader in such a slow paced race, 48 1/5 (if i remember correctly), is way to slow for 7F. · 303 days ago ·

  • cocoa2 · 7f is a whole new category, not just a distance between 6f and a mile. Takes a specialist, sprinters have trouble here and milers are caught off guard. · 306 days ago ·

Jackson Bend, who used last year’s James Marvin as a stepping stone to his victory in the Grade 1 Forego, will be looking for a repeat as he heads the list of probable starters for the Grade 3, $100,000 race on Friday, July 20, Opening Day at Saratoga Race Course.Read More

The excitement can’t be matched in thoroughbred racing, save maybe the Triple Crown and Breeders’ Cup.  The first of forty cards at Saratoga is on tap for this afternoon and if the first three cards give any indication, the racing this meet will be terrific.  Read More
  • MarkRodriquez · CHECK THIS OUT THESE POST TIMES: (eastern time) Calder race 5: 3:42; Ellis race 5: 3:42; Finger Lakes race 8: 3:43; Louisiana race 4: 3:43; Saratoga race 6: 3:46. Do the people in charge of these tracks know just how befuddled they leave the bettors? And wouldn't it be to THEIR advantage to go about 10 minutes before that group? · 668 days ago ·
