  • Buckpasser · Glad the old timer won. I was hoping for the Phipps horse in the race as it would be a nice dbl. victory for one of the few old time stables that are still active · 314 days ago ·

It seems to me like there are a lot of things happening this July 14th! Not only is it my birthday, but it is my cat Stormy’s birthday, my sister in law Jolene’s birthday, one of the Dukes of Hazzard guy’s birthday, and it’s also a holiday in France (Bastille Day)! In addition to that, it is my seco...Read More

  • LAZMANNICK · A filly that was just beginning to run at the longer distances where she thrived. In races from 8.5F and longer she won 5 of 6 including her last four. In 21 other races all at shorter distances she won only 7 of 21. What could have been? They finally get her figured out and then tragedy. RIP girl. · 650 days ago ·

Yes, I know Banned has looked great in winning his last two races at Churchill Downs, but anyone at Arlington Park this afternoon for Million Preview Day, has to have a similar thought as me right now … Willcox Inn is in the running to stake claim as the finest sophomore turf horse in the land.

  • christysontheweb · I thought that the Modest was a great race and that Fantasia (albeit a little green in the stretch switching leads) was impressive and most importantly she found all the right openings to give her a great trip given the running style. All I can say is WOW Willcox Inn and Robby A!!! MOST impressive indeed I say they go for the big one. Tajaaweed won nicely too but WI was a tough act to follow...great racing coast to coast yesterday! · 685 days ago ·

Augustin Stable’s Fantasia made a four-wide rally in the stretch to overtake the front runners and hold off a late charge by Romin Robin to win the Grade III $150,000 Modesty Handicap by a length on Saturday.  The time of 1:53.80 for the mile and three-sixteenths over firm turf set a stakes rec...Read More

Tuscan Evening figured to get loose on the lead in the Modesty Cap, and she did, setting an exceedingly slow pace. So when she won by a half-length over 16-1 Eclair de Lune, the first response was, 'meh.' But this actually was better than merely meh. Yes, TE got a favorable setup, but she flew home....Read More
William Deburgh’s Tuscan Evening kept her 2010 record intact with a front-stepping half-length victory at Arlington Park in the Grade III $150,000 Modesty Handicap, one of three graded stakes that makes up the track’s annual Million Preview Day card.   Trained by Jerry Hollendorfer, the Irish-...Read More
Couldn’t you just imagine Jimmy Durante being a huge fan of Hot Cha Cha?
