All Take Grabs the Win in The MTH Cup
After winning the New Orleans Classic in March, All Take would have two very disappointing efforts, so it was safe to see that it was important for him to bounce back in The MTH Cup.

Credit Crime Back Against Fillies in The CCA Oaks

Très Bien! Theresaplaceinfrance Wins My Dear Stakes
Early two year old stakes are often unpredictable, and that could not have been more evident when simply looking at the odds board for the My Dear. At 6/1, Theresaplaceinfrance was actually the post time favorite for the race, while also being our pick, and the longest shot on the board in the eleven horse field was 10/1.

It’s Party Time in The Quick Call
Mb Stables looks to continue his dominance in the Quick Call on Sunday, a race that he has won four years in a row, and five times overall. There will be eight horses running in this race that initially began as being a mile in distance, but a quick call was made to change to a sprint after a year.
