Dutty John Crow Wins The Peter Pan at 39/1
For some reason, the bettors were not high on Dutty John Crow, and made him a 39/1 longshot. We were higher on him, making him one of our picks after watching him finish second in the Coolmore Lexington, which was run in the mud.

Absolutely Creepy is Absolutely the Favorite in Valentine Stakes
It was looking like the Valentine Stakes was not going to fill, but on the last day, we would get our fourth nomination, so the race is a go! Three of the four runners here do have recent experience, so we still should get an entertaining race.

It’s Time for The 2021 KYD
It is the race that we all have in mind when we took on this journey to become virtual horse racing trainers.

Number Nine Looks Fine on Lead to Win Bewitch
Number Nine has made her living going long in races like this, but she does it in an impressive fashion, by going right to the front and hoping to stay there until the end. Prior to the Bewitch, three of her six most recent races saw her go wire to wire to get a win, with the races distances being at least a mile and a quarter.
