May have found a new home on the turf as he seemed to race much better with the surface switch. While he raced in midpack throughout, he seemed to give it his best in the stretch and didn’t seem to lose a lot of ground. The gelding has a long stride and may be more […]
Comebacker was a victim of the “Ortiz drift” in the stretch and this may have cost him the race. There was clear sailing in between horses, before Ortiz drifted out causing Kuchar to steady a bit in midstretch. The jock was going to go in between horses once again, but the gap closed and he […]
Didn’t break the best and was caught four wide up the backstretch while tracking four others in front of her. She made a big move around the turn, but couldn’t keep up in the final furlong. A better trip and better break can only help her chances next time. Next Upcoming Race: Alpine […]
Is usually forwardly-placed, but was allowed to trail the field up the backstretch. She began her rally entering the stretch and looked like she had a shot at the win in midstretch, but flattened out late to finish 4th. Expect her to show more early speed and possibly move forward next time out. Next Upcoming […]
Made his local debut after three starts in Florida and received a tracking trip up the backstretch. He loomed a bold threat on the far outside entering the stretch and was lightly-bumped as well. Jock had to hold him in the stretch as he kept trying to lug in and the jock just basically took […]
Showed a lot more early speed today in what may have been an experiment for his new barn. The gelding was four deep in a five horse battle for the lead up the backstretch. He took over the lead around the turn and was in between horses throughout the stretch. He was keeping up with […]
Entered this in poor form, but the blinkers were removed for this and he set the early pace. He was hooked up with a rival around the turn and fought on gamely in the stretch along the rail in a three horse driving finish at the wire. The gelding held 3rd and he may be […]
Appeared to have some equipment issues a few strides out of the gate as she drifted far back of the field while racing out near the middle of the track up the backstretch as the jock kept looking down and pulling on the bit. She was allowed to settle and actually caught up to the […]
Raced with first time blinkers for this and the filly never really looked comfortable until the final furlong when she got up late for 3rd. She was bumped out of the gate and the entire field lined up for the lead a few strides out of the gate. This gal was then wrestled back to […]
Led throughout in his debut, but was outrun for the early lead in start #2. He kept dropping back up the backstretch and went to the back of the pack around the turn. The jock didn’t seem too confident in him entering the stretch, but as he started to catch the others he really turned […]
