With the scratch of Domestic Product, we would be left with just five horses going in The Pasco Stakes at TAM on Saturday. However, the winner, Le Freak, may have felt that he was the only horse taking part, as he jumped out to the early lead and was never bothered, cruising to a three length victory.

Likely Exchange Stakes Fills at Last Minute, Draws Five
For a while, it looked like the Likely Exchange Stakes was not going to fill, but in the end we would get our field of five. That means that this race will run for just the fifth time in its history.
Balanced Field of Six in The Pasco Stakes
The Pasco Stakes is a seven furlong race, much like it’s companion race for fillies, the Gasparilla Stakes. This race was first contested back in 2005 for a smaller purse, and today will run for $150.000, which is the most offered by the race during that stretch of time.
Let’s Get Back into It with The Gasparilla Stakes
It’s time to start another year of coverage, and the first race on my 2025 schedule will be the 21st running of The Gasparilla Stakes down at TAM. This is a seven furlong race for three year old fillies on the main track, and the $150.000 offered is a new high for the race, up $25.000 from where it had been previously.
