3 for 3 for Maiden Watch including Saarland's first winner, Collegiate

A red-letter day for Maiden Watch as we had 3 starters and 3 winners (a fourth entrant, Speight the Halo did not draw in from the Also-Eligible List). It was especially nice that all three were by different sires. Collegiate got the ball rolling at Belmont, going to the lead straight out of the gate...

There's Peace in this Town

This was a very impressive debut for Peace Town. He sat off the pacesetters, Great Love and Dont Pass Em and then exploded to win by 8. I'd have to look it up to make sure, but I think this is our largest margin of victory so far. Rockaroundthepark closed well to pick up 2nd at 20-1 and Great Love hung...

Jojo goes by them all

It looked like our two horses, Medaglia d'Onore (colt; Medaglia d'Oro - Always Ready by Dixieland Band) and Persian (colt; Peace Rules - Lady Cheryl by Williamstown), took the match race reference to heart as they finished just a head apart. Unfortunately, they finished 4th and 5th respectively and did...

You ought to know Mr Mistoffelees

You ought to know Mr. Mistoffelees! The Original Conjuring Cat - (There can be no doubt about that). Please listen to me and don't scoff. All his Inventions are off his own bat. From "Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats" by T. S. Eliot I think we all will be getting to know Mr Mistoffelees. He made his...

Royal Card gets One Hot Toddy

Didn't make it to Keeneland to watch this one and too bad as it was an interesting race. I hope some of you were able to catch it either in person or on TVG. First, One Hot Toddy was getting some mention and air time from the TVG personnel. This is usually not a good thing. Then, the fun really began...

Curly no match for an Orientate Express

Curly was devoid of early speed, spending the early part of the race hanging out in the back of pack (strangely enough with Curly Cameli). But, he did make a nice middle move, passing a few before tiring. He ended up 7th at the finish. It will be interesting to see where he runs next, since Saturday...
