I was at the BC in 2001 when Jump Start suffered his injury. I left after that. Never saw the Classic. I was already emotionally strained after Exogenous suffered her injury. It was a rough day...the highs and lows of the sport. I was so happy they were able to save Jump Start. Twenty is too young ...

RIP to Jump Start
He was a beautiful, fast horse who consistently sired good racehorses.

Get over it.

Suburban may be next.

I thought his race was stellar. He’s a very powerful looking horse.

I didn’t realize Global Campaign is a 1/2 to Bolt d’Oro AND Sonic Mule! He just won the Peter Pan S (G2) today.

Small, but mighty, Channel Maker won his second Grade 1 today in the Man O War!

With Dignity, half sister to McCraken broke her maiden at Churchill today in her first start.

Do people not remember Country House ran 3 tough races in 6 weeks? And, that Mott generally takes his time with his horses and doesn’t run them into the ground? Why would Mott change his philosophy just to have a chance in 1 race? Prior to the Derby, Mott wasn’t entirely sure they would run him, bec...

Beyer numbers are bonkers.

I had Liora and Lady Apple in the right order yesterday... but I was wrong on the winner. Which is the story of my life.
Do you play matchups?

Nope. Would you tell me more about them?

Izvestia

That head on really shows it.

When I defended the decision, I actually had someone say the stewards violated a serious moral law yesterday...

Has anybody seen Country House in person? He looks like a big boy in photos.

He’s big. Mott has said he’s a strong, robust horse. I think he wasn’t as bothered by being slammed into because he’s a brick wall.

Izvestia

I think it’s a lot to ask Country House to come back in the Preakness. The horse ran 3 races in 6 weeks. Pimlico isn’t the track for big, long-striding horses. However, it would be fun if he did win!

How many people mad that Maximum Security was DQed are also mad that Bayern was not DQed? Question of the day for me I still believe Bayern should be taken down. These are top racehorses - if they cannot be in a race without causing serious trouble because they are green, they should not be in the ...

Well, I cannot actually believe it.

Gawd! I just love Bricks and Mortar. The horse knows how to win!

This race lost its lustre with Omaha Beach out... so without explanation because I am heading for a hike (in no particular order):

Tacitus

Safe trips for all.

The Derby is becoming a joke. It just goes to show you owner's don't care if trainers have killed horses in the past with unnecessary drugs, all they care about is winning. The sport is becoming a joke. Why don't we just reward Santa Anita for all their breakdowns while we are at it, and move the B...
