re: Dubai World Cup 2014 Thoughts
What works in Ireland and GB will not necessarily work in the US. There, horses TYPICALLY have only one prep for the Guineas if any. And all horses are on the same timeline, since turf racing doe...

re: Dubai World Cup 2014 Thoughts
I put my money in Pools 1 and 2 on Cairo Prince. The only horse I think can beat him if he is right is Social Inclusion, assuming he gets a good post position. Those who have been questioning...

re: Icabad Crane, No Headless Horseman Here
Thanks for such a cool update on Icabad Crane, Adam. He has always been one of my favorites as well and I'm so glad to see him getting off to such a good start in his new career. Thank you!
re: Icabad Crane, No Headless Horseman Here
Icabad Crane was a consistent sort... as was Jason Shandler,for nefarious reasons though.lol! "Snoopy... I mean Jason,come home"!
re: Icabad Crane, No Headless Horseman Here
It's an incredibly fine feeling to know that this good racehorse found a second career. He looks gorgeous jumping. I wish more race horses were given this kind of opportunity.
re: Icabad Crane, No Headless Horseman Here
Eventing is every bit as grueling as racing. Can't they find a nice quite retirement for the poor animal so he doesn't break a leg and have to be put down????? He's earned it, no?
re: Icabad Crane, No Headless Horseman Here
I have his half brother, DavidDavinci by Tapit on my stable watch
re: Icabad Crane, No Headless Horseman Here
Just this last week was browsing through old articles of racing and wondering where Icabad Crane ended up- thrilled he is excelling in his new career!
re: Icabad Crane, No Headless Horseman Here
I have found that horses who were that classy on the track, generally turn out to be that classy in their next careers too. And with the advantage of starting under Phillip Dutton, Icabad has a c...
re: Icabad Crane, No Headless Horseman Here
I remember this horse and was a fan! So happy he has a 2nd career. Thanks for the article.
re: Icabad Crane, No Headless Horseman Here
What great news to hear he has moved on to a second career! Best of luck!

re: On Location: Hipodromo Camarero in Puerto Rico
I feel very proud to see my hometown racetrack in this blog. But its true what edrul427 says about the hay-days. I remember this great races with horses such like Vuelve Candy B, Tatra Voltage, E...
re: On Location: Hipodromo Camarero in Puerto Rico
Any way you could possibly scan and email me a copy of the front of the program? I would appreciate it.
re: On Location: Hipodromo Camarero in Puerto Rico
Thanks for the story. I wish the BloodHorse would include Puerto Rico in their state/regional sire lists. After all, they are American bred horses running in a US territory for US dollars! ...

re: On Location: Hipodromo Camarero in Puerto Rico
Thanks everyone! Sorry about the watermarks, but they are my personal images and I get tired of people lifting photos without asking. If there are a few you would like to see larger or without a ...
re: On Location: Hipodromo Camarero in Puerto Rico
It looks like a very nice track. Those photos leave something to be desired however with "Blood Horse" plastered across them.
re: On Location: Hipodromo Camarero in Puerto Rico
I wish you would have seen what this racetrack was on its heyday.Last i visit about 4 years ago i felt so bad because that was my home for many many years.It is not even a shadow of what it used ...
re: On Location: Hipodromo Camarero in Puerto Rico

re: Arson Squad Storms the Keeneland Paddock
IC2001KY A couple years back I donated a modest amount to I'm Charismatic. When he first came to Old Friends I followed his progress. Was in Kentucky in Feb and got to see him and his friend Ar...
re: Arson Squad Storms the Keeneland Paddock
Great Story. I am the lucky owner of four OTTBs...none were very good (in fact one never even placed in any of the races he was in) but it is an honor to care for these backbones of the industry....
