Anybody know what Flash Mash got in the first at Fairgrounds yesterday? Thanks!

Not yet available..

That was a good effort and it ended up being the fastest 6fs of the day. It also seemed like the track was drying out as the day wore on because they had a ton of rain on Friday. She's a nice looking horse.

I see no stars in this group.

The Remsen winner ran the same figure as the Clark winner. There's never been a year like this where the top 2yo's are almost as fast as the top older males.

Whenever the number is available, I'd like to know how Tiz Blessed did in the Display Stakes at Woodbine. 5 1/4 length win, first time synthetic runner for Chad Brown. The DRF article said he had some trouble at Monmouth before, but I didn't know the story there.

85

That horse won one of the worst baby races at Toga this past summer.

I'd love to know Alcindor's fig when it's released.

102

Thanks. He looks like he has a good deal of talent. Wouldn't bank on him staying healthy for long though.

Ya - he has a few full brothers. Half Ours was the healthy one, and they all went for over a million.

I think Shackleford may be ok. Very nice dam ran a solid race. Also Depeche Chat in a super debut beat a highly thought of Archarcharch in a nice stretch run. Archarcharch will show up opening day in Hot Springs and pay $3.80.

Hopefully healthy enough to run in the Malibu at Santa Anita.

From Thoroughbred Daily News before he debuted:

Alcindor is one of four very expensive full-brothers out of the Storm Cat mare Zing. Grade II-winner Half Ours sold for $625,000 in ‘04 as a yearling at KEESEP, then fetched a record $6.1M as a three-year-old at KEENOV after winning the Three Chimneys Juvenile S. Zong brought $1.7M as a KEENOV weanling in ‘05, but is unplaced; Europe, who was in utero when Zing went for $3.6M at KEENOV in ‘05, sold the following year as a yearling for $2.6M at KEESEP, but is also unplaced; and Alcindor was knocked down for $1.15M at KEESEP in ‘08. Zing was barren in 2008, and has an unnamed 2009 filly by Distorted Humor who went for $275,000 at this year’s KEESEP sale.

Wasn't Half Ours sold in November of his 2YO season?

Nevermind, guess he was sold for that much coin as a 3YO, and that was after a gang of early career injuries. A fool and his money...or something.

It wasn't a random sale. Is was essentially, as I recall, one partner buying out another. I believe it involved Barry Schwartz and Aaron Jones....but you should be able to look it up without much effort. Myself....I'm going to dinner.

The loss of Lookin At Lucky was a big blow to the Malibu, but with Alcindor, Noble's Promise, maybe both Twirling Candy and Sidney's Candy, Caracortado, and, who knows, maybe Tahitian Warrior and Thisskyhasnolimit it still could be interesting.

Of course, racing fans who don't get their racing news from Oprah, 60 Minutes, or Monday Night Football, probably would have been salivating at the prospect of another Lookin At Lucky-Noble's Promise showdown (they were never separated by more than 3/4 of a length in 4 matchups).

Could have been the greatest pointless rivalry since Silver Charm v. Free House back in the late '90s.

I think the brain trust already sent Tahitian Warrior on a plane because he worked on 11/20 and hasn't since.

Yeah, I saw that, too. However, I thought there was still a week til December so it didn't register that he should have worked again by now.

Not that it means Tahitian Warrior stayed, but didn't I read somewhere that Godolphin was going to leave a sizable string (in Florida I presume) this winter?

I hope so. Even if they demote him to Darley and leave him with McLaughlin, he has no business going to Dubai, it obviously didn't work last year.

That horse is a total joke. I'm surprised he is being mentioned for a g1 race. He would be demolished.

It's age-restricted. Didn't see his Bold Ruler effort vs. his elders, but certainly his allowance races this summer were more than enough to take a shot.
