Derby Six for 1/31/16

1. Mohaymen  Tapit- Justwhistledixie by Dixie Union Jockey: Junior Alvarado Trainer: Kiaran P. McLaughlin Owner: Shadwell Stable Career Statistics:  Starts: 4 Wins: 4 Seconds: 0 Thirds: 0 Earnings: $559,830 Derby Points: 20  Absolutely love his Holy Bull win. He showed a fantastic ability to relax on the inside of runners and finish with an absolute flourish. Kiaran has even said this colt is ahead of Frosted and Cairo Prince at this stage in the game those are some pretty talented horses. He easily crushed Greenpointcrusader who I thought would give him more of a challenge then he did. The way Mohaymen re-broke at the top of the stretch gave me goosebumps this is one very special racehorse. Hopefully he stays sound and we will see just how incredibly special this colt is.

Derby Six for 1/10/16

1. Brody's Cause  Giant's Causeway- Sweet Breanna by Sahm Jockey: Corey J. Lanerie Trainer: Dale L. Romans Owner: Albaugh Family Stable Career Record: Starts: 4 Firsts: 2 Seconds: 0 Thirds: 1 Earnings: $523,138 Derby Points: 14  Extremely talented individual with a ground covering stride that looks like he'll get better with age. If he handles the transition from two to three he's going to be one tough costumer this winter. His third in the Juvenile is not discouraging he simply did not have enough time to make up ground as he was really far back in the Juvenile. Has yet to work since his last effort, but that's not too concerning expect him to make a return in either the Fountain of Youth or Rebel Stakes. Last Win:  2015 Breeders Futurity Last Race:  2015 Breeders Cup Juvenile Last Race Finish:  3rd 2. Sail Ahoy  Bernardini- Matlacha Pass by Seeking The Gold Jockey: Joel Rosario Trainer: Claude R. McGaughey III Owner: Phipps Stable
