Deep Impact

You are correct Zippy. Early Oct. That is only a 3 month layoff. I would be interested in seeing when they ship Deep Impact to France.

I was just thinking about it... with the BC being run on November 4 this year, maybe we'll see more Arc runners this year because of the extra week between the Arc and BC? That would be nice.

I doubt it.

The racingpost says that he might take in a prep like the G1 Irish Champion Stakes in September at my home track or the G2 Prix Foy in Longchamp. Deep Impact is amazing and the only horse that has beaten him is Hearts Cry who beat a nice field in Dubai and is oncourse to run in the King George and also possible in the Arc.

With Hurricane Run surprisingly losing at the weekend, one must say that Deep Impact is the best horse on the planet at this moment..

I like this horse, but every time he wins I get a little more pissed off that we don't get to watch these Sunday Silence colts run over here. This horse is 10 for 11 and the only horse to ever beat him (Heart's Cry) is ALSO by Sunday Silence. Sunday Silence is the horse that got me interested in the game and he will probably always remain my all-time favorite racehorse. I'd love to have been able to go to US racetracks all these years and bet his offspring (even the ones that aren't so good). I know its a business, but him getting sold to Japan STILL makes me mad. Especially when we see how great a horse like Deep Impact is.
Now that Sunday is gone, there won't be many of his progeny left on the track, so while they are around I'll root for horses like Deep Impact, even if his every victory angers me just a little bit more.

This is the only son of Sunday Silence on the east coast (to my knowledge) and there is one in Colorado as well. (Eishin Masamune (JPN).

I was laughing at the Japaneese race call. I had no idea what was going on or where he was, then I heard "DEEEPUHHHAHHH EIIEMMPACTO" I was like oh, there he is. It looked like somebody driving a corvette on the freeway passing a bunch of minivans.

That's one nice looking horse. His fee is very reasonable.
I wish they'd ship him up to NY, they'd make a fortune.
