What Is Next For Soldat?
By: lee lane-edgar
Soldat has just finished fifth in Florida Derby almost endangering his contention for the Kentucky Derby this season. After having faired not well in his last race, expectations are dwindling. Since history has predicted winners; those who ran their prior race either winning it or finishing second, a 5th place beaten by 10 lengths looks unlikely. But again, there have been exceptions like Big Brown, who bounced back as a winner after a couple of disappointing performances. Nothing is predictable.(read

Brilliant Speed Rallies From Last To First To Upset The Blue Grass Stakes
By: lee lane-edgar
Looks like all races are getting as unpredictable as destiny would like them to be. Keeneland's Blue Grass Stakes experienced the incredible win of Brilliant Speed, squeezing himself all the way to the top from the last. Closing the first place by just a nose, Twinspired and King Congie closed second and third respectively. Even the favorites on bidders' lists went unnoticed as these 19-1, 24-1 and 13-1 odds went for the win. Blue Grass Stakes however, is run on polytrack and the results could be ignored owing to the drastic difference from the natural dirt. Anticipate any surprises too?(read

Triple Crown Flashback: Sunday Silence And Easy Goer - The Last Great Horseracing Rivalry
By: lee lane-edgar
Race horses depict rivalry extremely gracefully, the last one seen and adored was Sunday Silence and Easy Goer only in 1989 after the memorable Affirmed and Alydar battle for supremacy late back in 1978. Where Sunday Silence was a black west coast Californian, Easy Goer was a delicate chestnut east coast New Yorker. Winning three out of four, the east coast gave a relentless struggle for victory closing the Kentucky Derby, Preakness and the Breeder's Cup in favor and giving in when his arch-rival glided to first position at Belmont. Let's hope Uncle Mo and The Factor strike a similar spark allowing truck loads of action at the tracks this season.(read

An instant hit, Smarty took over the Count Fleet at Aqueduct followed by the Southwest Stakes, the Rebel and the Arkansas Derby at Oakland Lawns and headed untouched to the Run for the Roses. Having won the Kentucky Derby too, he succeeded Seattle Slew in the undefeated patrol followed by a thrashing 118 Beyer Speed Figure and another victory at Preakness. However Smarty lost the Belmont to a maturer 1-1/2 mile runner Birdstone and left behind an incomplete quest for Triple Crown but definitely an impressive one.(read
