SCORECARD: Weekend of Parity
15 graded stakes have been run since Friday's kickoff at KEE... (Granted the races are far flung with regions represented widely (BEL-MED, LRL, KEE-HOO, SA), but the success is still being remarkably spread around..
15 different trainers have won the 15 races, (including Rusty Arnold, Lynn Whiting, Ben Perkins Jr., Frank Brothers and John Glenney).. An interesting sidelight? No Pletcher-Velasquez.. No Mott-Desormeaux.. No Biancone-Leparoux.. And mercifully, only one Asmussen.. 13 different riders on board, (including Jimmy Graham, Larry Melancon and Jamie Theriot)... with only Corny Velasquez (MED Cup, Jamaica) and Robby Albarado (Breeders', IN Derby) gettings pairs.. The winning trainer-jock combos through Sunday: ALCIBIADES (Gr. I): Frankel-Bejarano (Country Star) MED CUP: Dutrow-C. Velasquez (Diamond Stripes) IN OAKS: Brothers-M. Smith (Tessa Blue) SYCAMORE: Glenney-Graham (Transduction Gold) SHADWELL (Gr. I): Proctor-Theriot (Purim) BREEDERS (Gr. I): Arnold-Albarado (Wicked Style) CHAMPAGNE (Gr. I): Zito-C. Velasquez (War Pass) FRIZETTE (Gr. I): Baffert-Gomez (Indian Blessing) HIRSCH (Gr.

Parity in horse racing would go along way to the sport. With Pletcher on the outs and our French buddy brought down while at the same time DT stables expanding at an incredable pace, the future's looking brighter all the time.

I go with Wicked Style as well. Just an overwhelming victory winning from a bad post running the most difficult style for the track.

Thought Vacare ran a really nice race. Only one to really make up ground on the Frankel. And how about some love for War Pass who dashed away from anyone who tried to get to him.

I thought War Pass was more impressive than Wicked Style. . . I guess WS ran against the grain on the poly but the fractions were awful slow and it's not like he lost ground from the post. . .
