She was raring to go after a lay-off but Jose Ortiz managed to get her settled at the back of the pack in the mile and a quarter turf race at Belmont last evening. He moved her up gently and she was not going to be denied the win after battling with her stablemate Palamos […]

Blame Debbie All The Way
Gate to wire leader Blame Debbie set a sedate pace in today’s one and a half mile Searching Stakes at Pimlico. She’s proven in her last few races that the extra distance is a preference for her and even today’s good turf was not a bother. Congratulations to Eclipse Thoroughbred Partners, Michael P. Cloonan and […]

A “Mean” Bite of The Big Apple
MEAN MARY thrilled her many, many fans again this afternoon with a tremendous performance in the $750,000 New York Stakes-G2. The day turned into a real nail-biter with severe storms, heavy rains and dangerous lightning slamming Belmont Park about an hour before post time. The race prior to the New York Stakes – the Bed […]
Wicked Hot
We are lucky to have patient owners and it makes all the difference. Wicked Hot did not start until this year as a three year old as she came in to us late last year. This month she ran a good second at the beginning and now a first at the end – by twelve […]
Tonal Verse
First time out after a long break worked wonders today for Tonal Verse on the opening day of Delaware Park. She tracked the leader until the stretch in today’s seven and a half furlong race and was a length ahead at the wire. Congratulations to owner Michael Sabatine of Heights Stable.
Jarreau
Nice win today for Jarreau at Belmont. By Pioneerof The Nile out of the SWEETEST of mares Sweet Tune, this is his first win of hopefully more. Owned and bred by Jack Swain, III, congratulations to him.
Mean Mary Wins Grade 3 Gallorette
Another lady who likes things her own way! Always a front runner, Luis Saez did a good job to rate her today as it was shorter than her preferred distance and first time out of the year she was sharp! One of the best moments of the day has to be for her owner and […]
Alda Prevails In The Hilltop Stakes
She likes things her way and they did yesterday in the Hilltop Stakes at Pimlico. She wasn’t rushed, allowed to bide her time following the rail before John Velasquez timed her run to the wire to the minute. Many congratulations to owners and breeders Wertheimer et Frere. See the closing stages below. #3 ALDA takes […]
Dance Some Mo
After one start on the dirt in February he was swung right back to a turf race where he finished second and enjoyed the surface. Since then his entries have been ‘off the turf’, ‘also eligible’ but yesterday he got his chance again at Churchill and loved it! Nice win for owners and breeders Sam-Son […]
