What race is Pappacap pointing for? Working a hole in the wind at the Casse private training center.

Never mind Baffert, it won't be the Derby unless that barn shoehorns one in, even if the only decent race was over 6 months ago. Plus would he be the only representative from that great renewal of the BC Juvenile?

Going forward, when you refer to Pappacap, please call him "Steve Byk's Eclipse Finalist PappaCap."

Thanks in advance.

I don't think you realize how important the Best Pal Stakes is. Neither does the Graded Stakes Committee, because I think they downgraded it for this year...

It has produced 2yo champions Roving Boy, Timber Country, Lookin at Lucky and Nyquist, so it's association with the Eclipse Awards is well established. Furthermore, in my opinion other winners of the race, namely Best Pal, Officer, Dixie Union, and Roman Ruler could have easily been Eclipse champions were it not for racing greats like Wilko, Declan's Moon, and Anees being in the same crops.

The race has also been productive in the near term. 2021runner-up Finneus just placed in the Turf Paradise Derby and the 2020 winner Weston is entered for a $18k claiming tag next week at Santa Anita.

Plus he's the best named horse outta this 3yo crop.

Late TC nominee BYE BYE BOBBY (Fincher) will try to augment 20 points earned in Sunland Derby placement in the Lexington..

Kasept 03-31-2022 04:52 AM

Also from the late nominee list, SUMMER IS TOMORROW (Seemar) to take up a slot in the Derby gate off 40 points earned in qualifying race held abroad over the weekend.

Fortunately they have over a month to come to their senses.

Tough decision ahead for Ken McPeek...

Does he prep for the Derby Stakes in the Kentucky Derby or the 2000 Guineas?

I would go with the latter. If he doesn't then the horse has no shot at the English Triple Crown...

Alabama Stakes 04-02-2022 07:56 PM

Pretty tough not to go to the Kentucky Derby after that effort today.

RolloTomasi 04-02-2022 08:09 PM

Who called the Jeff Ruby Steaks on the NBC telecast?

Loved his style. I think his approach is basically: 1) Call the correct horse on the lead and 2) never let on that you have no idea who the other horses are or what position they are in...

He even winged it on the name of the race right before the start. Pretty sure he called it the Jeffery Stakes.
