OSCAR PERFORMANCE LEADS ALL THE WAY IN THE WOODBINE MILE!
~ T'would be wild if he repeated.
Battle of Midway needed a couple of fuel tankers. He ran out of gas in the stretch.
They kind of just threw him right into the big races, might have been nice for him to start in an allowance or ungraded stakes.
That's not in style any more. Owners want larger dollar signs. Making sense does not apply. Gotta make them cents!
I think Hollendorfer was going to out him in the hungraded Harry Brubaker at Del Mar but I guess other people wanted a graded stakes.
Collected couldn't find the pay window.
I wonder if 'Dude has changed hands? Or could he be there to get a confidence-booster in an easier spot?
He's 8, he's going to have to start dropping at some point. He won the Highweight last November at Aq, but I don't think he's done so well since then (including a trip to Dubai). Let's hope Jacobsen is as good to Dude as Dude has been to him.
Pretty lame field in terms of size... not that the juvenile preps are any better.
One of my main points of contention about the Breeder’s Cup........ I was at Del Mar when Tale of the Union broke his maiden. Looks like a real runner. Wasn’t he supposed to go in the Norf..., I mean Front Run...., I mean American Pharoah?
