Since arriving Stateside Lelaps has put together quite an impressive resume to win two out of his four races, having won none out of five overseas.  Yesterday’s race at Churchill was 1 3/8 miles which for him, the longer the better!  Capably ridden by Joe Rocco, Jr. he won comfortably by a length.  Congratulations to […]

Her second place in yesterday’s Cardinal Stakes (Grade III) at Churchill is definitely worth a mention.  She was just beaten a head by Grade I winning filly Daisy Devine.  Julie had previously had a third place in a Grade III so she’s now wratched it up a notch.  Well done Julie.  Photo by Reed Photography.   […]

That’s how Joy and Classy Broad ran today at Laurel.  Pity when one has to win but that’s how it goes!  Congratulations to Dark Hollow Farm, owners and breeders of Joy.  They like to try and get one word names which is so uncommon these days.  I like that.{jcomments on}
