Jeremey Day's analysis of the Sunday 4/19 card at Balmoral Park.
A hotwalker who in December was charged with murder was judged in late March by a Los Angeles-area court mentally incompetent to stand trial, according to a California Horse Racing Board investigator.
Dan Farrell, an Eclipse Award-winning photographer who worked for the New York Daily News for four decades, died Monday due to pneumonia, the paper reported. He was 84.
She didn’t put her best foot forward early, but Stellar Path certainly put several strong steps together late, winning her U.S. debut in Friday’s $95,000 Plenty of Grace Stakes at Aqueduct.
Lloyd Romero, a retired trainer and the father of Hall of Fame jockey Randy Romero, died Thursday night at his home in Erath, La.
The unbeaten stakes winners Kitasan Black and Satono Crown, and the 2014 champion 2-year-old colt Danon Platina, are among 15 colts in Sunday’s $1,700,824 Japanese 2000 Guineas at Nakayama Racecourse.
This week, we have two “Bet This” plays plus a “Not That” one. Again, let’s use DRF Formulator to look at a few plays around the country. Formulator allows you to see the lifetime past performances of horses who have run in the past five years for any trainer who has horses entered, as well as charts, replays, filters, and more. With access to this database and with one-click access to replays, it can allow you to see some things that aren’t readily available to the betting public.
Lubash was older but perhaps never better than he was at age 7, finishing first or second in all seven of his starts in 2014. Sunday, he tries to continue that trend when he makes his 8-year-old debut in the $100,000 Danger’s Hour Stakes going one mile over Aqueduct’s turf course.
Home Run Kitten is back on Santa Anita’s hillside turf course for Sunday’s $100,000 San Simeon Stakes at about 6 1/2 furlongs. Trainer David Hofmans is hoping there will be ample speed among the eight runners to aid Home Run Kitten’s rally.
