Somebeachsomewhere remained undefeated on Saturday night as the 3-year-old pacer won his first start of the year in the $100,000 second division of the Burlington Stakes at Mohawk Raceway Saturday night.

Still one of the very dominant pacers early in the 3YO year, and one to definately keep an eye on. Congrats to the connections for a great return...

Love the fact that he's named after a Blake Shelton song. That is wicked cool.

this is a huge story up in Canada, he has become a major star on the front page of the toronto papers. if you ever get a chance to see this colt dont miss it, I went to Spring Haven farms in Ohio were he was bred to look at yearlings, and to say he stood out from the rest of the crop would be a drastic understatement. WOW! what a fantastic looking individual. A great colt for good people, unlike some other owners in the press today.

Best race of the day including the Tbreds ...

This one is seriously good, and betters himself while thrashing the others ..

Last year he set a world record for twos, this year he bested his own record of 1:49 for the mile, and finished up in 26 and change after wiring the field ...

He is 10 for 10 and it looks like the only competition is himself ... WOW ...

Everyone should do themselves a fav and watch probably the greatest standardbred pacer ever, he can only beat himself.

Totally agree. He's a specimen. The fact that PMac had him wrapped up in 1:48.3 on Saturday nite at the Big M was incredible to watch especially when contrasted with the fact that Mister Big, one of the best older pacers in the country, was all out to win the Haughton by a head in 1:49.

From what I've seen -- very serious horse. Incredible. He goes 27 quarters and does it under wraps, easy. I would like to very much see him win it.

One thing about the Meadowlands Pace though -- the Meadowlands has often been the boulevard of broken dreams, LOL. Many big stakes races, a horse, 2, maybe 3 take a run at you, can sit and go and potentially beat you. Maybe 2 or 3 are considered legit contenders. The Meadowlands Pace is a bit different -- there are usually 4, 5, sometimes more horses who can and will run at you. There are that many or more who can legitimately win.

Anyway -- I want to see him win it. The sport needs another truly great horse to come along . . . haven't had one since Artsplace.
