Listing

Well Armed may have had the most visually impressive victory on the Dubai World Cup card, but Timeform has ranked him the second-best horse in the world – with Dubai Duty Free winner Gladiatorus number one at a rating of 132 (in case you were wondering, the only other American-based horse apart from Well Armed […]

Catching Up

I’ve just returned from beautiful Seattle and have been getting up to speed on everything I missed, racing-wise (here’s the short version: a lot). While I racked up a lot of Road to the Roses points, upon reflection I would probably have further shaken up my top ten – here’s the current version:

(Early) Weekend Preview

Why, you may ask, is my weekend preview arriving so early? Easy: logistics.

Yesterday’s news that both Indyanne and Go-Between (pictured) had died was rather shocking; while Indyanne […]

Can You Go Buzz Buzz?

Zenyatta returned to the track yesterday; while she is still unlikely to make a start before the spring, it’s good to see her name pop up in a headline. Stablemate Tiago also went out for a jog and I’m just as pleased to see him back as a 5-year-old – I was more impressed by […]
