Siouxbiscuit Prevails in a Photo Finish in Dogwood
Over the course of her three year old campaign, Siouxbiscuit has been highly productive, but a series of close calls at the wire has likely left Mb Stables thinking that the filly could have done so much more. She’s been a little snake-bit, and her last race where she missed the headbob at the wire in the Grade 1 Test is a good example of that.
Wyatt Langmore Is Too Much for His Harrods Creek Competition
The Harrods Creek ran for the third time on Saturday, with a field of ten looking to pick up the winners portion of the $300.000 purse. Getting the upper hand here would be the Fractious- trained Wyatt Langmore, a gelding by Count The Stars that the trainer picked up with a $25.000 claim in February.
From The Gate, At The Gates Is Dominant in Bourbon Trail
When we last saw At The Gates, he struggled mightily in the slop at the Travers. Surely, he was a better horse than that, as his prior race on a sloppy track, coming here at CD, was also very poor. There was no reason to worry about rain this time around, as the track was fast, and the opportunity was there for At The Gates to redeem himself.
Wavy Girl Runs Away With Cotillion
Every year, the Cotillion can be counted on for having a great field that will send several runners to the BC Distaff. That won’t be any different this year, and winning the race can be a great way to make a statement that you should be one of the favorites for that race. Holding that distinction will be Wavy Girl, who was the post time favorite going in.
Retaliate Furthers His BC Case with Gallant Bob Stakes Win
The BC Sprint is in six weeks, and it is safe to say that we have our favorite for the race. That would be Retaliate, who came into the Gallant Bob Stakes off of wins in both the Grade 1 Crosby and the Grade 1 Jerkens Memorial Stakes, which would be enough to make him one of the favorites on that basis.
Mamba Has Little Trouble in Winning PRX Dirt Mile
Over his career, Mamba has been a successful horse that has finished in the money for most of his races, but actually winning a race had not happened much. In his prior start, he would win for only the second time in 16 starts, making us wonder if he could make it two in a row.
