Ken McPeek's HORSE RACES NOW app (iPad/iPhone) has a sire alert function.

Henny Hughes had one of the most textbook perfect under-tack workouts you'll ever see at a 2-year-old in training sale.

At Barretts March 2005, he worked an unblinkered 1/8th of a mile in under 10 seconds flat.

Here's the video of his work at Barretts March in 2005:

Pretty good 2-year-old season. He wasn't always a good gate horse, though. He won the Tremont Stakes at Belmont by 15 lengths going just 5.5 furlongs despite stumbling at the start. He had gate problems in his debut as well.



His performance in the BC Juvenile with first lasix was a nice one. He did all the dirty work on a hot pace -- before Stevie Wonderboy came from way off the pace to nail him late after getting a great setup.

I use the HRN app, but couldn't find a Sire Alert function. Were you thinking of another one?
