Good Cheer, one of three undefeated graded stakes-winning 3-year-old fillies from the Brad Cox barn, is set to make her season bow in the $300,000 Rachel Alexandra Stakes (G2) Feb. 15 at Fair Grounds.View the full article -
Just an observation...I do feel that the races aren't policed adequately, and officials- in the main - have little idea about what good or bad tactics might be or what practices are potentially dangerous until an accident happens. If you watch overseas jurisdictions, in ( for example) Japan, and the Americas particularly, there isn't this habit of 'stacking' fields which leads to all sorts of schemozzle behind the leaders. Add some who think it's ok to dive under the necks of other horses or close a gap suddenly and it's not hard to see how riders can clip heels, especially the younger ones. If races were run at a solid clip and deviations from a line strictly dealt with, the whole thing would be much safer. In the UK/ Ireland it is common to put in a pacemaker to ensure this, which i think is a good practice. -
Yes, and I can't think of an instance anywhere in the world in the last 50 years where a horse dropped dead in a race due to EIPH. Pulled up maybe. That sort of catastrophising is simply ill-informed and frankly unhelpful.

Horseplay, an exhibit showcasing over 50 rare and antique board games focused on horseracing, will be displayed at the National Horseracing Museum in Newmarket beginning on Apr. 4. The games are on loan to the NHM from a private collection, and the exhibition is thought to be the largest display of horseracing-themed board games ever opened to the public. The games on display range from a wooden box with a hand crank dating from 1880, to a madcap drinking game where nobody can visit the loo before a 'pee break' card is drawn. Others include antique playing cards, a board game endorsed by a Hollywood legend and another invented by a famous composer. Visitors follow a Grand National-themed racetrack through the exhibition, rolling a giant dice to proceed, and pausing at interactive stations named after the jumps at Aintree. Along the way, people can view antique and contemporary games, and have a go at playing on replicas. Tickets for the NHM are £15, with children under 16 free of charge. the NHM is open Tuesday-Sunday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. To buy tickets and find out more about the Horseplay exhibit, please visit the NHM website.
