  • Z One and Only

    It was 10 years ago today, on Nov. 7, that the mighty Zenyatta put on the show of shows. I am reprinting my recap of that special event in order to relive all the magic and excitement.

    FILLY AND MARE SPRINT - This race is full of talented fillies, but the obvious showdown is between Covfefe and Come Dancing.

But at 6 1/2 furlongs, seven ...

  • Friday Selections: Always Looking For Longshots

    JUVENILE TURF SPRINT – Although one might think this race is a vehicle for longshots, that doesn’t seem to be the case this year.
