The Winning Pick

Congratulations to Read the Footnotes whose first winner, Sapphire Prince, won June 26 at Great Leighs . The Winning Pick Stamen went to the lead out of the gate, but Pick's Express cruised up to the front from the outside and left that one behind. He did tire a bit late, but had more than enough to...

Renda, Rachel, and Trifecta King; Maiden Watch Hits the Stakes

I have been debating how to treat races featuring Maiden Watch "graduates." Since they are no longer maidens, do they belong in this space? Plus, the type of analysis that I do is more appropriate for unraced and lightly raced horses where there is little or no past performance information. It is not...

The Triumph of Curly; Renda first winner for Medaglia d'Oro

Curly came out of the gate nicely and settled in third, much closer to the pace than usual. Meanwhile, Tiz Clever and Four Rivers sprinted ahead of the field and dueled through the first 6 furlongs (setting fractions of :23.87, :47.20, and 1:12.61.

Segal over Persian; The Cowboy runs again

Persian got out of the gate well and raced near the front for a bit before tiring. It was encouraging that he remained in fourth and didn't fall back farther. The winner was the top-seller from the race, Segal who started a bit slowly but soon took the lead. He then drew off like a horse with a promising...

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).
