  • Mary Z. · No way is Turbulent Descent going to get the Female Sprint Eclipse. First off, not all of her wins can be considered sprints and her sprint wins weren't exactly fast, which is sort of the main theme of a sprint if I can for once openly like speed. Musical Romance is likewise not a fast sprinter. Too bad the fast females had injuries, like Hilda's Passion or Sassy Image-another one that had some bad races at Gulfstream. Here's a handicapping minor rule I use: throw out bad finishes for fillies at GP and any bad race by a horse that was stuck on the rail there. So I don't really have a pick for top female sprinter but I would really like some explanation as to why Switch was not run on dirt at 7f. as much as possible this year and not all the other experimentation? Not that I'm owed an explanation. Just put one in my stocking if inclined, thanks. Male sprinter: simply put Amazombie. Want more detail? I'll whip out equibase or it's there for all to review. Add in his DQ as a win cuz, truly not long ago he wouldn't have been taken down. Nowadays, yes, ancient times, probably not. · 170 days ago ·

Turbulent Descent and Zazu both turned in excellent performances on Saturday, proving the 3-year-old filly division remains strong, and form has held up exceptionally well during the year.Read More

  • BigAConfidential · Nice work as always, Brian. Agreed on Zazu, game in defeat. Very interesting to see where she goes from here. Love to see her come east for the Beldame. · 296 days ago ·

  • KyOaksRunner · Thanks Joe. I'm guessing they'll send her back against her own age group next time. If she doesn't she risks losing the award if another filly (like It's Tricky) continues to dominate their age group. · 295 days ago ·

  • Thoroughbred44 · Only time will tell if she can come back to her 2010 form. Hopefully she can, I'm a fan, she's a great filly, too bad she had to miss a lot of basically her biggest season. · 359 days ago ·

  • KyOaksRunner · I hope she comes back and is able to run at the same level she left at, that would be very special. Hopefully she'll be able to put together a strong season in the last half of the year (and maybe next year as well). · 356 days ago ·

  • icyhotboo · AK and Brilliant Speed will be in my mix.If you watch the KD replay you'll notice that Brilliant Speed ran an excellent race and I would look for better this time.As for AK he probably is the best horse in the race as he can run good no matter how the race shapes up at 1 1/2 mile · 359 days ago ·
