  • SandySwenson · Good race. However, his stablemate, Believe You Can, a 3-yr-old filly who won the Silver Bullet Day Stakes earlier in the day, ran faster for the identical distance and won by 2 lengths. She also lead all the way, running the first quarter in 23 and change. · 14 days ago ·

As one of the finest trainers going, Larry Jones knows good horseflesh when he sees it, so when he says he’s very happy with a young horse this time of year, it makes sense to listen. Clearly Havre de Grace, likely to be rewarded with the Horse of the Year in a matter of days, is the stable star, bu...Read More

  • waya · I think you are right about Jones. He has already done it with the fillies, maybe Mr. Bowling will be his first real Derby, Preakness, and Belmont threat. · 26 days ago ·

  • mdracing69 · Baffert on Liaison and Secret Circle: “I got him going seven-eighths in 1:23 3/5,” said trainer Bob Baffert, who has the Grade II Robert Lewis penciled in for the son of Indian Charlie owned by Arnold Zetcher, who was on hand for the drill. “He relaxed really well,” Baffert said of Secret Circle, who suffered his first loss in the one-mile Sham Stakes on Jan. 7. “I worked him in company to try and get him to settle down during a race. I have no plans for him right now, but the San Vicente is an option.” · 19 days ago ·

  • 12thCrown · I think FG spacing the race as is hurts their chances for top contenders. Very few will wheel back for another race like Nehro did last year. But it's shocking they don't draw better candidates with the $1 million purse! I love visiting that track... can't believe Asmussen is heading west this winter. · 41 days ago ·
