It's interesting that Asiatic Boy may be heading out of the Woodward because of the Fearsome Filly.

I hope none of you have forgotten Goldikova cos she put up an awesome performance on Sunday at Deauville and is worthy of being mentioned in the same breath as Queen Zen and Rachel Alexandra. She is a miler so i doubt they would meet but her record is tres impressive! (FRANGLAIS!)

Very nervous now because in about 12 hours Sea the Stars makes his bid for Juddmonte glory with only 3 Coolmore horses to beat! Therein lies the problem. I hope to goodness there are no team tactics. I am sure Aidan would not really approve of them but you never know. It has happened with Coolmore! Though they got done for it so perhaps would be more sporting now. Hope so anyway!

Sea the Stars deserves his chance to win fair and square. Mastercraftsma is good but really, really pray that Sea the Stars can beat everything easily and continue on his merry way to superstardom!

Love Kensei and Gio Ponti too of course and was absolutely thrilled with Telling's win!

In fact it has been a great few weeks for Seattle Slew's dynasty with many top races being won by them including the Russian Derby - A son of Malibu Moon!

Have a great week Adam!

God Bless

Best wishes

Hey Vince, there IS another horse worthy of acclaim. I believe Zenyatta is 12 for 12, and don't think for one minute Jess Jackson isn't ducking the BC because of plastic. It is because of the big horse named Zenyatta.

there is only one match-up anyone should care about and that is rachel alexandra against sea the stars, and if that doesn't happen then it is a crime. two best horses in the world. there are plenty of horses in europe that would beat gio ponti over 12 furlongs.

Art: That is a good point, Mr. Steve is not akin to the synthetics. It's just early to rule anything out and I am an optimist with hope the best in the country would go to the "Championships." Though I know about a third won't be there this year.

I think BIG DRAMA would destroy KENSEI

Considering who owns Kensei, what indication have you been given that he'd even be considered a possibility to run in the Breeders' Cup?
