Great writer and narrator of horse racing.

Sad. I believe he is the last son of Secretariat.
Tinners Way   1990 - 2017 RIP
He was quite a race horse.

I heard the Preakness winner is headed to the Dandy. Any other rumors. I ask this same question this time every year because I always head over for the race.

 

1./ Classic Empire - win
2./ Always Dreaming- place
3./ Gunnevera  - show

As noted before the Derby I picked Always Dreaming for the win.

Sounds like career ending, but not life threatening.

Both mom and filly are healthy according to the article.

I'm trying to figure out where he stands after winning the Travers ( track record ), BCC, Pegasus and DWC. Those are four huge races to win in a row. What's his future as a four year old.

Thoughts

I remember a horse that won the Derby , but was disqualified. Dancer's Image in 1968. Today what ever was in his system would be legal. I really got into racing in 1971 with Canenerro II, the horse from Argentina that won both the Kentucky Derby and Preakness. Little did I know in 1971 what was to come next. Riva Ridge, Secretariat, Seattle Slew and Affirmed.

I've never been real impressed with Victor. Too much Hollywood big shot. I would have loved to see Mike Smith on Chrome. We would probably have had a different outcome.

Great news. Charismatic heading to Old Friends end of November. Never forget the photo of jockey Chris Antley holding Charismatics injured front leg after the 1999 Belmont. Chris you are a hero. Thanks.

But winning the Santa Anita, Preakness and Haskell all grade I's should get him 3 yr old horse of the year. Also coming in 2nd in the Kentucky Derby will help.

After yesterday, I pose the question of 3 yr old male HOY ?

11 for 11. She runs so smooth and easy and fast. On to the Breeders Distaff. I also heard that Rick Porter plans on running her as a four year old.

May have to sneak over Sat.

Well I didn't see that coming. A 27 - 1 Laoban  wiring the field. Creator certainly didn't fire.

at Saratoga. Positive news about saving him.

I go to the Jim Dandy every year and I believe this is the first time since I've been going that we get two of the triple crown race  winners in the same year. I've seen Street Sense in 2007, Bernardini in 2006 and Palace Malice in I forget the year win the Jim Dandy. But never two from the same year entered.

I'm excited.
