  • Winplacsho · I haven't looked at the PPs, so I'm not sure how much speed in there, but from her first 2 races routing doesn't seem like it will be a problem. · 130 days ago ·

  • mdracing69 · Applauding was withdrawn from Saturday's Silverbulletday Stakes due to a mild case of colic that developed overnight. “I would say she just had a slight tummy ache when I got here this morning,” said trainer Al Stall, Jr. shortly after training hours on Saturday. “She responded to treatment immediately.

  • 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. · 153 days ago ·
