Triple Crown Notes
15-Apr - Injuries have knocked The Pamplemousse and Old Fashioned off the Derby trail. Last weekend presented the last of the major Derby preps and General Quarters and Papa Clem earned trips to the party at Churchill Downs. The Lexington next Saturday will probably send a couple runners to the Derby, but the Withers and Derby Trial will probably act as preps for the Preakness Stakes.
15-Mar - Friesan Fire and Pioneerof The Nile got the job done, Old Fashioned tired in the stretch and was beaten by a 56-1 shot and Musket Man rebounded from his Sam Davis loss to win the Tampa Bay Derby. Friesan Fire earned the top Beyer Speed Figure of the bunch with a 104, Old Fashioned earned a 98 losing to Win Willy (BSF 102). Pioneerof The Nile (San Felipe Stakes) and Musket Man earned BSF's of 90.
14-Mar - Saturday's four graded Derby preps should go a long way toward shaking out the pretenders from this year's crop of Derby hopefuls. Old Fashioned, Pioneerof The Nile, Friesan Fire and quite a few other are in action today.
09-Feb - Two of 2008's top two-year-olds (Midshipman and Vineyard Haven) are preping in Dubai, but 2008's top 2yo filly, Stardom Bound, is thinking of taking on the boys in the Santa Anita Derby, presumably with an eye toward the Kentucky Derby.
