That didn't take long. Gulfstream is off the turf today. Sloppy track. Tapeta is now to be run with six races.

It’s supposed to be nice for the next week.
So I guess they will be off tomorrow to save the
course for the weekend.

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

Thursday, December 1, 2022

Aqueduct (New York):

• Race 8: Tap the Faith (Joel Rosario/Christophe Clement) persevered under the guidance of the rider who was idle all day except this mount. Rosario was replaced on his other scheduled ride, in the opener, and this seemed like a "too good to be true" bet even at the small odds of 2-to-1. Why would Rosario ride once, late in the day, on a maiden? Bet of the year!

​

• Race 1: Narciso Dali (Katie Davis/Amira Chickaly) opened the card with a gate-to-wire 8 1/2 length romp. Davis won for the first time in 2022, her eighth mount. She was absent due to maternity leave. Trevor McCarty, her husband, was injured last month and among his extensive injuries was a broken collarbone.

Gulfstream (Florida):

• Handle: $3.9 million.
• Surface: What was to be the first day of turf racing in about half-a-year didn't develop. The day began fast and firm but soon turned into a sloppy dirt track and no turf racing.
• Leonel Reyes had a strong day going 7 3-1-2. He was mostly an under-the-radar rider for a while but has blossomed in the past year. He brought home bombs but for now is a consistent option.
• Race 9: Summer Shandee (Luca Panici/Frederick Labo) was the longest shot on the board at 35-to-1 but paid $73 in victory. The double paid $938. The $.50 Pick 4 was over $30,000. The Pick 5 and Pick 6 bets paid to those who had a loser in each exotic. The trainer dates to the 1970s but sent out a horse for the first time since 2006. Amazingly, he had four wins since 1995 with few starters.

​

• Race 6: Jolly Miss Jill (Leonel Reyes/Ralph Nicks) and Brown Eyed Beauty (Frank Villalobos/Diley Dakin) formed an exacta with both horses sent off at 12-to-1. I don't know anything of the jockey/trainer on the place horse as both had just one lifetime start entering today.
• Race 2: Kentucky Pride (Leonel Reyes/Richie Silvestri) edged Perfectly Kimbely S. (Jaime Torres/Joe Catenese) as two of the three longest odds came within a nostril hair at the wire. Silvestri doesn't send out too many horses and won for the seventh time in his career.

​

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

It’s supposed to be nice for the next week.
So I guess they will be off tomorrow to save the
course for the weekend.

Two of the three scheduled races for turf are off today. As of now, Race 8 is on the turf.

Tapeta is 1, 2 5, 6 and 9.

Cumberland Raceway continues winter festival open now;

[Cyclones Rock]

The influence of Churchill Downs gaining ownership of Turfway Park has yet to be fully recognized. Mostly a night track, Turfway opens its extensive meet(s) tomorrow (Wedn.) with enhanced conditions including $70,000 MSW. The track is undergoing $145 million in renovations. This is the only live T-bred racing in Kentucky until April. The current meet ends December 31 and the winter/spring meet ends April 1. All racing is done on a Tapeta surface. Turfway has no turf.

I do have to mention that the grandstand is a complete disgrace. It's a multipurpose room with no permanent seats. It's essentially a luncheon/job fair/small concert facility with a few big wide screens. Unreal that it was approved by the Racing Commission.

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

Friday, December 2, 2022

• Steve Asmussen remains 45 wins shy of 10,000. He has an unusually quiet week approaching with just 10 entered Friday through Sunday.
• Richard Baltas was hit with a one-year suspension, which will be appealed, starting later this month. Horses were given an anti-stimulant and an anti-inflammatory meds. Baltas has been training for about 30 years and never reached triple digit-wins in any given year.

Aqueduct (New York):

• Race 9: The $1 Pick 6 paid over $30,000.

Gulfstream (Florida):

• Race 8: The first turf race at the track in about half-a-year.

Saturday's card @ FTC-Cumberland Raceway is running despite the rain

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

Saturday, December 3, 2022

• Cancelled: Turf Paradise (Arizona) and Woodbine (Ontario) due to inclement weather.
• Countdown: Steve Asmussen remains 45 wins shy from 10,000.
• Jeiron Barbosa won three times including a pair under the lights at Charles Town. He is 17 6-1-4 in December. As stated a few times, my pick for leading bug rider in 2022.

Aqueduct (New York):

• Handle: Roughly $11 million.
• Race 9: Mind Control (John Velazquez/Todd Pletcher) won the Grade I $750,000 Cigar Mile by a head bob at 3-to-1. Velazquez was off his mounts yesterday for a travel day from California in order to ride in his old stomping grounds. Mind Control has been retired with a record of 29 12-3-6 including 8 5-2-1 at Aqueduct.

​

• Race 8: Dr. B (Irad Ortiz, Jr./Butchy Reid) won the $200,000 Grade 3 Go For Wand and with the win the jockey earned his 77th stakes win of 2022, a single-season record-high in North America annals.

​

​

• Race 7: Dubyuhnell (Jose Ortiz/Danny Gargan) won the Grade 2 $200,000 Remsen Stakes and with it 10 points towards entry into the Kentucky Derby. The 2-year-old is a son to Good Magic. It was Affirmed vs. Alydar out there at the Big A. A dandy.

​

• Race 6: Julia Shining (Luis Saez/Todd Pletcher), a 2-year-old daughter to Curlin, is now 2-for-2 lifetime after winning the Grade 2 $200,000 Demoiselle Stakes. Just what Pletcher needs: another rising star.

​

Laurel (Maryland):

• Race 9: My Super Sally (Richard Monterrey/Christine Clagget) won as the longest shot on the board at 40-to-1.
• Race 8: Post Time (Eric Camacho/Brittany Russell) was the slight favorite and impressed in winning the Maryland Juvenile Stakes. The 2-year-old Frosted colt is 3 3-0-0 this year. The rider has had all three mounts. Prior to this year, his most previous win came in 2016 as he mostly gallops in the mornings. Post Time is someone to follow: "A Maryland bred star in the making," per the Laurel track caller.

​

Tampa Bay (Florida):

• Race 9: Super Chow (Chantal Sutherland/Jorge Delgado) wired the field to win the $100,000 Inaugural Stakes. The 2-yea-old son to Lord Nelson is 5 4-0-1. Nice looking horse.

​

Fair Grounds (Louisiana):

• Race 8: Oeuvre (Jareth Loveberry/Chris Block) won the $100,000 Pan Zareta Stakes. If the daughter to Shackelford was considered only a star at her home track of Hawthorne (IL) where she is 8 6-0-2 that notion was dispelled. She is now 14 8-3-2 including 8 7-0-1 in 2022.

Del Mar (California):

• Handle: Roughly $16 million.
• Race 7: Liguria (Flavien Prat/Chad Brown) was sent off the favorite and won the $100,000 Grade 3 Jimmy Durante Stakes. Prat doesn't blow too many opportunities and he has a gifted 2-year-old daughter to War Front. Prat could very well be a finalist for Jockey of the Year. Brown is an exceptional turf trainer but doesn't ship to California very often.

​

• Race 9: Speaking Scout (Juan Hernandez/Graham Motion) won the $400,000 Grade I Hollywood Derby at 8-to-1 and topped a 4181.90 $1 exacta in a surprising result. Speaking Scout has raced at 12 tracks among his 14 lifetime starts, a well-traveled specimen.

​

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

Del Mar closes out its meet today. The pools are likely to be excessive today. Del Mar is probably dark until the near-middle of 2023.

 

[CHRDANHUTCH]

BETTER Weather today as Sunday card is underway @ FTC-Cumberland Raceway

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

The pre-race buzz at Gulfstream included Brittany Russell's Post Time...at Laurel! That speaks volumes. The horse is ridden by a jockey who gallops in the mornings and is 3-for-3 this year.

Russell won the opener today with her husband returning from injury and riding L Street Lady who looks like another star for her stable.

===========

And now the DRF has an article:

Post Time now 3 for 3 with Maryland Juvenile triumph

Post Time remained unbeaten from three starts after a dazzling last-to-first victory on Saturday in Laurel Park’s Maryland Juvenile.

www.drf.com

LAUREL, MD. - Post Time remained unbeaten from three starts after a dazzling last-to-first victory on Saturday in Laurel Park’s Maryland Juvenile.

The Maryland Juvenile was co-featured along with the $100,000 Maryland Juvenile Filly Championship. Both stakes were restricted to Maryland-bred or -sired 2-year-olds and run at seven furlongs over a sloppy main track.

Trained by Brittany Russell for octogenarian Ellen Charles’ Hillwood Stable, Post Time broke a bit slow from the inside post and settled in last as Maryland Million Nursery winner Johnyz From Albany set fractions of 22.76 and 45.81 while lightly pushed from the outside by Coffeewithchris.

Johnyz From Albany dispatched Coffeewithchris late on the turn and opened a two-length advantage, but Post Time was in full flight on the outside under jockey Eric Camacho.

Post Time swept past Johnyz From Albany inside the three-sixteenths pole and jaunted home under a mere hands-and-heels urging to win by 3 3/4 lengths in 1:23.98 seconds.

Johnyz From Albany was second by the same margin over Coffeewithchris. Tiz No Clown was fourth followed by Feeling Woozy, California Ghost and Tidewater.

Post Time, a son of Frosted out of stakes-winner Vielsalm, returned $4.00 as the betting favorite.

“That was a wow,” Russell said. “I was watching the move on the turn and wondering if he could keep going. He cruises. He just does things so easy. It’s amazing.”

Earlier this week, Russell told Daily Racing Form that the immature Post Time “has a little bit of a funny brain,” but the gray colt was far more professional on Saturday than in his prior two starts.

Russell is looking forward to stretching Post Time out in distance and mentioned the early 3-year-old series of stakes races in Maryland and New York as potential options.

Post Time’s story wouldn’t be complete without discussing Camacho, who won 785 races between 2004 and 2016, including graded stakes at Gulfstream Park and Churchill Downs. Camacho now works as an exercise rider for Russell. Post Time is the only horse he has ridden in 2022.

“Life throws you curveballs,” Camacho said. “I was getting a little sour with it in 2016 towards the end. Opportunities were becoming less and less, so I had to figure out what to do with the rest of my life.”

Camacho worked as an assistant to trainers Tom Morley, John Robb, and Jeremiah O’Dwyer before becoming Russell’s main breeze rider.

“I think becoming an exercise rider really made me learn a lot about these horses,” Camacho said. “I wish I rode a little bit more because I’d be a little more polished, but when you have a horse like this, you don’t need to be polished.”

When asked whether a full-time return to the saddle is in the works, Camacho replied, “Right now, I’m obligated to Brittany. I work for her. I’m lucky they’ve given me this chance and had all the confidence in me to get the job done. This is big-time.”

Sunday, December 4, 2022

Aqueduct (New York):

• Handle: $6 million.
• Steve Asmussen -- now 43 wins away from 10,000 -- entered two horses, both won. Both were ridden by Jose Lezcano.
• Race 6: Juliana's Rose (John Velazquez/Mark Hennig), an otherwise non-descript filly, was the rider's lone mount and that sent a curious vibe to astute handicappers; however, the horse was passed in the stretch. Those senses don't always win.

Laurel (Maryland):

• Race 1: L Street Lady (Sheldon Russell/Brittany Russell) won by more than seven lengths. The Munnings daughter looks like a potential stakes runner.

​

​

​

Gulfstream (Florida):

• Race 5: The $.50 Pick 5 was a staggering total of $186,000+. No favorite won in the sequence but the biggest winner was only 13-to-1.
• Race 7: A potential DQ was nullified when a 45-to-1 shot was kept on top. Interesting connections involved including heavyweights Michael Dubb, Michael Maker and Michael Trombetta. The $1 double close to $500. The $.50 Pick 3 returned over $5,000.
• Race 8: The $.50 Pick 3 paid over $2,300.
• Race 10: The $.50 Pick 5 was a gigantic $98,000+.

Hawthorne (Illinois):

• Race 2: Hard Like Holly (Javier Tavares/Earl Hughes) paid $144.80 in victory. The 71-to-1 shot topped a $1 super that returned over $17,000.

Del Mar (California):

• Closing Day: Today was closing day at the facility which bills itself as "Where the turf meets the surf." Del Mar is dark until July. The 2023 Southern California season will consist of race meetings as follows:

• Santa Anita: Dec. 26 (2022) to June 18 and Sept. 29 to Nov. 5
• Los Alamitos: June 23 to July 9, Sept. 15-24, and Dec. 8-17
• Del Mar from July 21 to Sept. 10 and Nov. 10 to Dec. 3.

• Leading Jockey: Flavien Prat won his sixth Del Mar title. He won at 36%.
• Leading Trainer: Phil D'Amato won his fourth Del Mar title.
• Flavien Prat as I stated in yesterday's recap "doesn't blow too many opportunities" and today put the hammer down with six victories which is one shy of the track record. He finished 8 6-0-1. He won his first four mounts today.

​

• Handle: Exceeded $17 million.
• Race 8: Tisquantum (Kent Desormeaux/Rolando Quinonez) gave the Hall of Fame jockey his first win since January. The rider was idle due to his persistent ongoing battles away from the track.
• Race 7: Regal Glory (Flavien Prat/Chad Brown) won the $400,000 Grade I Matriarch Stakes. The 6-year-old daughter to Kentucky Derby winner Animal Kingdom finished her career 23 13-6-0 with $2.6 million earned.

​

• Race 5: Speed Boat Beach (Flavien Prat/Bob Baffert) won the $200,000 Grade 3 Cecil B. DeMille. The $200,000 Florida-bred son to Bayern is 4 3-0-0 lifetime. Baffert doesn't send many horses out on turf but he was successful here.

​

• Race 1: Mi Hermano Roman (Flavien Prat/Mark Glatt) was the lone first-time starter and won at 7-to-1 in a field of 11. Lone first-time starters that offer value, an often-stated betting angle, can prove beneficial.

Woodbine (Ontario):

• Race 7: Wentru (Rafael Hernandez/Martin Drexler) nearly wired the field at 42-to-1 to win the Grade 3 $150,000 Valedictory Stakes but finished in a dead-heat with Who's the Star (Emma-Jayne Wilson/Mark Casse). The 1 1/2 mile race was one of the most thrilling graded stakes in North America this year.

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

Total handle for Del Mar in 2022 was $744.68 million which established a track record. The Ship & Win program has become very resourceful and is a magnet for those in other parts of the country. California can be hindered on the racing stage by geography but Del Mar presented an opportunity that has been welcomed by not only the connections but handicappers who appreciate deep fields especially with turf racing. Weather and turf was used to an advantage.

After a few days this month at Los Alamitos, Santa Anita holds regional shop into June 2023. As is the norm, the racing world will focus on much of that meet.

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

$11,360,902,118 has been wagered on U.S. racing in 2022 which is behind last year's record by about $40 million.

The strongest numbers are in purses with nearly an 11% bump from last year.

Cody's Wish and the related story to Cody Dorman, the teenage boy who has Wolf-Hirschhorn Syndrome, was named winner of the Secretariat Vox Populi Award. A remarkable story highlighted by the horse's Breeders' Cup win.

"A story made for Hollywood was made right here in Lexington, Kentucky."

In 2018, Richmond, Kentucky native Dorman was offered a tour of Godolphin's Gainsborough Farm as part of Keeneland's Make-A-Wish Day. Dorman's condition, Wolf-Hirschhorn Syndrome, renders him unable to speak and relegates him to a wheelchair. During Dorman's visit to the farm, an inquisitive 6-month-old foal walked over to young Cody and put his head in the boy's lap. And with that, the bay colt earned his name: Cody's Wish. Nearly four years later, the special bond and sweet interactions between the two continue, including just days before this year's Breeders' Cup when the now grown-up and strapping racehorse reconnected with his longtime pal.

Cody Dorman and connections after winning the Breeder's Cup Dirt Mile at Keeneland with Cody's Wish
"Cody's Wish and his namesake Cody Dorman forged an instant bond that would grow to connect millions of fans to their inspiring story of hope and determination," said Kate Chenery Tweedy, daughter of Penny Chenery. "Not only did Cody's Wish win the Breeders' Cup Dirt Mile, as Cody predicted, but both Cody's won the hearts of people everywhere. Their uplifting story exemplifies the best ideals of the Vox Populi Award, just as Mom wished."

Bob Baffert has many of the top 2023 Ky. Derby contenders as of now. Interesting to see some of the trainers listed including Brittany Russell with three longer shots. The potent young sires are represented wit Justify, Gun Runner and others. A long way to go to May but this is a good source to follow into the winter months.


Following were the Kentucky Derby 2023 futures odds listed Monday by Caesars Sportsbook of Nevada, shown with last week’s prices:

[Marco 85]

Watching the races on TVG from Fairgrounds.
Judging by the look of the turf course.
They will not be racing on the turf this month.

If they get any rain at all in the near future.
I wouldn’t be surprised if turf racing is not
run until February.

With Churchill’s acquisition of Colonial Downs.
I wonder how long it will be before they have
problems with their turf course.

Do you think the burden falls entirely or Churchill at FG and the home track?

Do you think Tampa Bay could reap the rewards if FG closes until Feb or will some head west and take advantage of the racing there? Gulfstream is an option, too.
