  • DeadHeat · Jaycito likes to finish second. Did it a lot as a 2yr old, did it when facing PrePeg, and again here. Now the talk will be UE vs Game on Dude should the latter come to win today. · 4 days ago ·

  • Floridaf · As much as I like Game On Dude and his gritty style, I think I might have to go with Ultimate Eagle should the two meet up in the Big Cap, DeadHeat. · 3 days ago ·

  • icyhotboo · @buckpasser- Kelso was awsome!!! he ran on anything at any distance if someone were to say he was the best it would be hard to argue against him. Curious I never saw Kelso live but I did see almost all of the others and Buckpasser was the best looking of them all, not to mention one of the best and a personal favorite of mine. If Damscus and Dr. Fager had caught him in his prime when he wasn't worn down from years of injuries I think it would have been a rude awakening for both. · 57 days ago ·

  • buckpasser · @icyhotboo. Kelso was incredible in person and when he retired, it just wasn't Saturday at Belmont or Aqueduct without him. I loved Buckpasser, which is obvious, but I agree I think Damascus and the great Doctor Fager might well have gotten the shock of their lives running a fit and uninjured Buckpasser. I never thought he reached his potential due to his recurrent quarter cracks and other problems.. Richard Sone Reeves always said conformation-wise Buckpasser was close to the perfect horse. · 57 days ago ·

Allowed to float on the lead through moderate fractions, Ultimate Eagle repelled all challengers through the stretch and lit up the tote board as a 34-to-1 long shot in the $150,000 Oak Tree Derby (Grade II) over a mile and an eighth on Santa Anita's turf course.Read More

  • icyhotboo · Spectacular Bid would go 1:43.0 at 1 1/8 on that track. for that matter a 30k claimer will do 1:47.0. besides Hollywood in the 60s that's the fastest track ever.BTW now that "humphrey" is gone somebody has to push a button now and then.

Saturday’s pick six from Santa Anita includes four grass races and features a pair of Graded events. First up is the Grade 3 Thunder Road (8th race) and Colgan’s Chip might get brave if able to shake loose early. Victor’s Cry is the logical late threat. Twirling Candy looks like single material in t...Read More
