• Boss Spearman Lays Down the Law in AR Derby

  By Nynl Stables on March 30, 2025

  Earlier in the day, Daemon asserted himself as the KYD favorite with five weeks to go before the big race by winning the FL Derby. This would lead all eyes to OP, where virtual race fans looked to see if the other top contender, Extreme Jet, could also get a big win in the AR Derby.

It’s a bit of a shame that the OP Mile was not picked for one of the Pick ‘em races, because it would have been interesting to see how others saw this field.

• Domination Time for Distant Breeze in Ghostzapper

  By Nynl Stables on March 29, 2025

  The Ghostzapper was a wide open race on paper at least, and it was one that The Sidley Stud really wanted to win as the trainer entered three into the race. He would get what he sought to do, as Distant Breeze came away with a two length win at odds of 7/1.
