Citizen Bull wins the g1 American pharaoh stakes going gate to wire over getaway car and mckinzie street

Anybody know why Del Mar Futurity winner Gaming didn't run? He's had a couple of short works so maybe working up to the BCJ? Or did a wheel come off?

There was a DRF race preview for the American Pharoah and Baffert said he was training Gaming up to the BC Juvenile. If DRF had a search feature I'd link it but alas they hate us and don't.

They do, it's just odd. It's at the very very very bottom and you can only search by horse, trainer or jockey.

Brian Lynch debuted a HAP yesterday at Keeneland who I think is one to keep an eye on

TVG spent a lot of time on him a he’s absolutely massive - I don’t know for sure, but he must be 17h, and BL said he’s still growing. He's gorgeous, with a massive stride.

He broke terribly, and for much of the race was 16 or so lengths behind. He ran his next 3F in 34.64 to Nate up an enormous amount of ground - ultimately to finish 6th, with a strong gallop out. The replay is really impressive. Johnny V didn’t push him late - the colt was no doubt a bit tired.

Does he have a name so I can add him to my VS?

Good story about Rated by Merit a fast FL-bred son of one of my faves from the past Battalion Runner owned by Vintage Viola who is supporting the stallion with his own mares. https://www.thoroughbreddailynews.com/w ... contender/

I am a fan of this filly but since she has CQ on her dam side, and is from the family of Congaree, is that really a surprise?

She could be, as they say, any kind.

So far it seems her dam passed along her talent though! Wedding Toast was a nice mare.

Baffert has a potential monster in Cipriani, who blew the doors off her field. She’s by Bernardini out of a Successful Appeal mare, so not sure if she’ll want longer on that side, but she’s a huge filly
