One Last Punch Line Cruises to Louisville Win
Sometimes, as much as one horse might seem to be the class of the field in a race, things never work out that way. On Saturday in the Louisville, most the wagering money went to Life Is Beautiful, and for very good reason. However, we run these races for a reason, and it would be a horse that had run most of his races in 2024 at TUP to steal the show.
Spring Street Shows Up and Wins The Vagrancy Handicap
The question about Spring Street coming into the Vagrancy Handicap wasn’t whether or not she was capable of winning the race, as certainly she was. Instead, it was whether or not she would show that winning side of her, because we don’t see enough of it. Fortunately for trainer High Voltage, she would be at her best and the resulted in the victory.
Hobo Blues Doesn’t Disappoint in The Black Eyed Susan Stakes
Hobo Blues did not miss out on making the KYO field by much, but with none of the horses from that race making the trip to PIM for the Black Eyed Susan Stakes, she seemed like she would have a good shot. She would be our pick, and the betting public agreed, making her the post time favorite for the race.

Seven Head to The Gate for The Vagrancy Handicap
It’s time to take a look at the Grade 3 Vagrancy Handicap, which is a sprint for older females that runs for the 20th time. This is traditionally a race at BEL, but like others, it runs at the Big A this year. Purses for the race have historically ranged between $150.000 and $200.000 over the last two decades, so not much has changed here other than the location of the race.
