• Big Blue Brilliantly Stretches Out and Wins Transylvania Stakes

  By Nynl Stables on April 4, 2025

  A big turf race took place on Friday in the running of the Grade 3 Transylvania Stakes at KEE, and some rain came in to affect the track just enough for it to be downgraded to “good” status. That would not be a problem for Big Blue, a horse that ran in the BC Juvenile Turf Sprint last fall, and was stretching out for the first time.

  By Nynl Stables on April 2, 2025

  If you add together the purses for the other two KYD preps on Saturday, the Wood Memorial and the SA Derby, you get $1,250.000. That would also be the purse amount for the BG Stakes, by itself. KEE is certainly doing something right by increasing their purses, a stark contrast from SA, who lowered theirs for 2025.
