The BC Distaff is the biggest race of the year for female horses, and this year seemed a little different for them with the high amount of success that fillies and mares had over the males, especially early on with their larger weight allowance. Karloffs Monster was no stranger to that route, running in both the TAM Derby and the AR Derby before eventually running in the BEL.

Gran Z Rides the Rail to Win BC Dirt Mile
Gran Z came into the BC Dirt Mile looking like one of the best horses in the field with wins in two of his prior four races.

Nothing Lazy About Shoo Fly’s BC Juvenile Win
Nine months ago, a horse named Rain Shower went to post at TUP for a new trainer, Lazy Eye. They had operated a virtual stable before, and had spent a lot of time in their preparations prior to their first race.
