  • Gotham Analysis and Selections

    Saturday's Gotham is the first chance for 3-year-olds on the Derby trail to earn graded stakes money in New York.

  • Jonesing for the Roses

    I don't like to pick one of the favorites for the Kentucky Derby.  I prefer to hone in on a well-bred longshot, and then to have my hopes and dreams dashed as my picks straggle in fourth or fifth... or nineteenth. But in recent years, I've had a feeling about a few horses. And I've almost felt guilty, because they were the ...

  • Using TrueNicks to Predict Racetrack Success

    With the first Northern Hemisphere 2-year-old races set to get underway shortly, we thought that this year we would do something that allowed us to follow TrueNicks as a predictor of racetrack success.

  • Quality Located

    A couple of weeks ago we noted how well Elusive Quality's 2005 crop had done. They are headed by the now-retired Breeders' Cup Classic (gr. I) and Queen Elizabeth II Stakes (Eng-I) winner Raven's Pass, and have been well-represented this year by the General George Handicap (gr. II) victor True Quality and Royale Michele, who took the Barbara ...

    A few years ago we wrote an article about pedigree trends to come.

Exchange Rate (TrueNicks,SRO) began his career in Florida but earned a move to Three Chimneys with a relatively ...
