Great article, I love Pomeroy's Pistol. Once she straightens up, she is gone. I just bought into a Pomeroy yearling and I couldn't be more excited. His offspring have been really impressive, both male and female. Ours is a grey, looks just like Flashpoint. His progeny seem best suited for sprints, but you never know. Many seem to show world class speed at 6 furlongs, that's for sure.

I don't know what Analyzer is complaining about, 25-1 show paid me dearly for Ready Signal, but I bet considerably more than $2...

Good story for a strong willed lady.

Although I am extremely disappointed by her choice of the jockey for a clearly better horse (Ready Signal) in the Ginger Brew Stakes. Horse would have won if a better jockey was the pilot and not a so so one. The workouts prior to the race points to that fact. Would have made a good bundle if not for that bungled choice of a jockey. Pls. next time, be more careful in your choices expecially with a live longshot.

Why does she make such a statemnt what does this mean ?

Tarrant started out at 2-year-old sales, then began buying yearlings “after I realized some of those 2-year-olds shrink after you buy them like the air was let out of the balloon.”

Love reading about the "backside" lives of the sport. Thanks for this insight into Pomeroy's Pistol and Amy Tarrant...she is a remarkable lady and am glad to get to know a little bit more about her. Will be watching for her horses in the future, and wish her well for PP's 2012 year.
