What a Sight to Behold

Photo Courtesy of Horse Racing Nation Beholder has developed into one of the greatest mares of modern times with earnings of $4.4 million dollars, and 15 wins in her remarkable career including 9 grade one stakes victories and 2 Breeders Cup wins. Even more remarkable then her stellar race record is a list of horses she has beaten, and not just beaten, but thoroughly embarrassed most of the time. The list includes millionaires multiple grade one winners, and horses that were undefeated. Here is the amazing list of horses Beholder has conquered there are plenty others, but these are the ones that really stand out. Royal Delta- 2 time Breeders Cup Distaff winner also won the Gr.1 Alabama earned $4.8 million in her remarkable career. Princess of Sylmar- Kentucky Oaks, Alabama, CCA Oaks, Beldame, and earner of just over 2 million dollars in her career.

Derby Six for 3/17/18

1.  Bolt D' Oro  Medaglia D'Oro- Globe Trot by AP Indy Jockey: Javier Castellano Trainer: Mick Ruis Owner: Ruis Racing LLC Career Stats: Starts: 5 Wins: 4 Seconds: 0 Thirds: 1 Earnings: $816,000 Derby Points: 64  Analysis: He rested all my worries about him not being 100% in the San Felipe. This horse is bred up and down for the Derby distance and with his acceleration and his versatility this is a horse who should handle the Derby with aplomb.   2.  McKinzie  Street Sense- Runway Model by Petionville Jockey: Mike Smith Trainer: Bob Baffert Owner: Karl Watson, Mike Pegram, & Paul Weitman Career Stats: Starts: 4 Wins: 3 Seconds: 1 Thirds: 0 Earnings: $350,000 Derby Points:40  Analysis: Another who rested my doubts about him in the San Felipe this is one tough hard knocking colt. He does still need to get his stretch antics figured out but that being said he is still a strong force to be reckoned w...

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...
