Inside Info and Heavenly Prize.

Who was the undefeated favorite when Heavenly Prize won the Frizette in her next start.

I also believe Cordero ( as a trainer ) won with a first time starter ( at around 9-1 ) earlier on the Frizette card. Name him!
Strategic Manuever.
You have me on the firster though.

Well, if you got that answer you would have to get some sort of special award. That was probably even more random than your Dutrow horse.

I want to say it was Rogue's Walk but I'm not certain.

The only firster I remember him winning with was the where he told Jan Rushton in the paddock that the horse had been purchased to be a pony for the owners kid and wasn't fast. She reported this in the paddock report and the horse jogged home and paid a fortune. Lots of angry bettors that day.
Even for Angel, that wasn't very nice.

I had just told the person next to me that story. I think he told her the horse couldn't run, but would make a cute pony for his kids, and she actually repeated it ( much like how she repeated that Ernie Paragallo told her someone offered him $4 million for Daddy Joe before his debut...he eventually broke his maiden for a tag ). Cordero's horse promptly went from like 17-1 to 8-1 at the windows, she has a LOT of clout, and airballed.

One of the greatest moments in NY racing history.

Maybe for some, but I was not very pleased to say the least. I had the horse as a possibility in the pik-3's, and when Jan said what she said, I took my red pen and put a big x over him.
A truly spirited profanity storm followed that race.

Then you're an idiot.

I actually find her voice to be... soothing. Must be the southern accent.

Daddy Joe, Paragallo's 2005 version of Unbridled's Song... at least according to him.
As was Scanlon's Song this year... and i think he's still eligible for N1X.

Yeah, as I recall Ernie had him " pencilled in as the Wood winner " thus enabling him to win the Arkansas Derby with Achillies of Troy ( who actually WAS a good horse ).

Scanlon's Song got a blistering pace and speed duel to win his debut and as usual was butchered on his way to the shelf and I think may have recently run for a tag. It's too bad. The horse had at least a little ability once.

Achillies of Troy was a VERY good horse.

Agreed, is he ever coming back? He had the best figures of any 3YO early this year.
