We’re All Still Waiting for the Race Between Rachel Alexandra and Zenyatta

When will it happen? Everyone I know was greatly disappointed this past July when Rachel Alexandra did not race in Saratoga. Instead, she would take part in the Lady’s Secret Stakes. Rachel Alexandra won easily and offered little excitement or thrill as it was a completely one-sided affair. But maybe one can still have the [...]

Trouble in the Texas Horse Racing Business? Hold on To Your Saddles

There is trouble brewing in Texas. It’s about the last place you’d expect difficulties in the horse racing business, but there you go. It’s true. The Texas Horse Racing Commission voted to allow Retama Park in Selma, Texas, to reduce its fall thoroughbred schedule from 30 days to 16, to be staged on weekends in [...]

The Big Saratoga Giveaway Days Announced

You’ll forgive me this week if I concentrate on Saratoga Raceway. I am partial to Saratoga. I worked for a number of years near Woodstock and travelled up to Saratoga in the summer for my horse racing fixes. Yeah. That’s right. I have a horse racing fix. Don’t you? Anyway…. This summer, the troubled raceway [...]

All Hail Drosselmeyer; 13-1 Longshot Takes the Belmont

I love the Derby, but I grew up 15 minutes away from Belmont Raceway so the Stakes holds a place dear in my heart. Wherever I live, I watch the Belmont Stakes and it takes me back to when I was a kid. Meanwhile, I loved the race. And I’m glad First Dude lost. Nice [...]

Successful Homecoming for Jockey Nakatani, Wins Riding a 21-1 Long Shot at Hollywood Park

This, from our correspondent in Whittier, California. It’s a cool story about Corey Nakatani, who left Southern California earlier this year for a fresh start. Well, he enjoyed a happy homecoming June 1 when he rode 21-1 long shot Victor’s Cry to a victory in the $250,000 Grade I Shoemaker Mile at Hollywood Park. Nakatani, a [...]

All Hail Super Saver, and Super “Jockey” Calvin Borel, Kentucky Derby Winners

Well, I shouldn’t have been surprised. The 136th Run for the Roses ended with jockey Calvin Borel winning AGAIN, the third time in the past four years. This time, on Super Saver. The horse went off at 12-1 odds. So winning the Derby was nothing new for this great jocket (from Louisiana)…not so for trainer Todd [...]

Kentucky Derby Preview: With Eskendereya Withdrawn, Who is the Favorite Now?

Ok. Now we have a problem, as bettors. Eskendereya, whom I would have bet on this Saturday, in the 136th Kentucky Derby has been withdrawn. Eskendereya, for those who aren’t aware of the horse, won the Fountain of Youth Stakes and Wood Memorial. He would have been a strong favorite in Saturday’s Kentucky Derby, but [...]

Zenyatta’s the “Apple” of My Eye; Her Win in Hot Springs Proves She is One of Best Ever

Absolutely no question now. Zenyatta is one of horse racing’s all time greats. She won the Breeder’s Cup Classic ($5 million) in November. Last week, in Arkansas, she won her 16th straight race, with an easy 4.25 length win the the $500,000 Apple Blossom Stakes. Now, she’s up there with such greats as Citation, Cigar and [...]
