Superfecta is back from her family emergency and normal updates will now resume. It has been a busy news week; obviously Barbaro’s condition is the biggest worry right now. The Washington Post details the latest surgery and the problems in the other hind leg; the NY Times covers much the same territory, but with some […] Although Barbaro’s cast change went well on Monday (articles here and here) and his x-rays look great, it seemed he was a bit uncomfortable with the new cast and so it was replaced again. The good news is that there was no obvious reason for his discomfort, so fingers crossed it’s just one of those […] Our rundown of the weekend’s events was a bit delayed thanks to yesterday’s short-but-powerful storm which knocked out our television, internet connection and commuter line until a good 24 hours after the event. I’m sure I had a number of witty and/or clever comments which have since left my brain, so here are the remainders: […] Brass Hat’s DQ was upheld by the Emirates Racing Authority; while it’s not an unexpected outcome, it is disappointing since he truly deserved his second place finish and the resulting purse. Stateside, trainer Steve Asmussen’s suspension for ‘medication infractions’ was similarly upheld in Louisiana. While the types of drugs in question are quite different in […] Well done to Showing Up for his fantastic effort in the Colonial Turf Cup! It was a very impressive race; insane fractions were set by longshot Kip Deville who was something approaching 15 lengths in front at some points and who hung on for a strong second. Not only was the victory notable for the […] There’s a nice article on the Jacksons and their hopes for Showing Up in today’s Colonial Turf Cup in the Washington Post today which includes some very upbeat (perhaps unexpectedly so, based on his reputation) comments about him from Barclay Tagg as well as his thoughts on Barbaro’s injury and recovery. The other recent Barbaro […] Just a few quick links before I dash off this morning; there are two fine articles on the Jacksons at the moment, one from the local press that also mentions Showing Up and a great one from the Baltimore Sun with some new photos. All indications remain positive. More on other news (i.e. the Colonial […] Indulge me, dear reader, in a slight departure before I get into the horse racing. Today the latest album by The Divine Comedy, “Victory for the Comic Muse,” is released in the UK and Ireland (it’s been out in Europe for a day or so already). I strongly urge you to purchase this album, either […] We saw a few dramatic finishes on Saturday — not least from Happy Ticket/Oonagh Maccool in the Fleur de Lis and Seek Gold/Perfect Drift (left) in the Stephen Foster. The US did a great job as well, especially considering they seemed to be playing against the ref as well as Italy. A win would have […] We’re back to the first Saturday in ordinary time now that the Belmont has come and gone, and it should be a good one. Oonagh Maccool and Happy Ticket are in action in the Fleur de Lis, and Brass Hat meets Buzzards Bay and Perfect Drift in the Stephen Foster. Although it’s a race Perfect […] |
