Going by what you post it must be difficult for you living with yours. All those dark clouds. ------ Well that ends that topic. No doubt the subject will be added from time to time to the narrative of the anti's and moaners. Oh well back to counting whip strikes. Stuff putting any real energy into getting useful change. -

Code Review (Uncle Mo) was the subject of much pre-race chatter and lived up to the hype on Gulfstream debut Jan. 25, making all the running en route to a 1 1/2-length victory and 'TDN Rising Star' presented by Hagyard plaudits. The bay was given an entry for Saturday's Virginia Derby, but connections opted to ship in for this considerably softer spot, for which he was made the 1-5 mortal. Code Review hopped slightly as the gates flew back, but he quickly stepped away to a clear lead before Tyler Gaffalione took a tug, allowing 22-5 second choice I Did I Did (Curlin) to slide up into a pace-pressing position. Clinging on to a narrow advantage on the turn, the heavy chalk looked to be making hard work of it on the inside of the rain-affected track, but he dug in determinedly when it looked as if he might be passed and held on to score narrowly. A $200,000 Fasig-Tipton November weanling turned $575,000 Keeneland September yearling, Code Review is a full to Laoban, GSW, $526,250; and to the dam of Sovereign Award winner Mr. Hustle (Declaration of War), GSP Malibu Coast (Malibu Moon) and GSW Abientot (Not This Time). This is also the female family of dual Grade I winner I'm A Chatterbox (Munnings). Chattertown is also the dam of a yearling filly by Practical Joke and was most recently covered by Uncle Mo's son Golden Pal. 2nd-Colonial Downs, $78,400, Alw (NW1X), Opt.

By Michael Guerin Alexandra Park awakes from its summer slumber tonight to set up northern harness racing’s two biggest months of the season. But with the meeting the first step down a long and steep path for many it provides punters with challenges trying to balance the sheer class of some against the race fitness of others. The $40,000 Lincoln Farms Founders Cup (7.56pm) is the best example of that as well as the night’s best race. It sees Republican Party return to the track where he has won two Auckland Cups and just about everything else that matters in the last 15 months, but facing barrier 7 over 1700m with a ton of speed inside him. “I almost didn’t put him in this race,” admits co-trainer Cran Dalgety. “I almost trialed him on Tuesday to get him fitter and went to next Friday. “Don’t get me wrong, he is fit enough to win, but I don’t think he is fit enough to be driven hard and win so I’d like to see him tucked in and get one run at them.” The best version of Republican Party wins tonight’s race at least five times out of 10 and if he is eased early but then still finds himself dragged into the one-one later he will probably win it tonight. Aiding his cause is the fact his big gun rivals Akuta (barrier 6) and Merlin (8) are in the same boat and all three could be driven conservatively early and sting punters. Making their cause even more difficult is the gate speed of rivals like The Lazarus Effect (1), Rubira (3) and Sooner The Bettor (4), the latter one of the fastest beginners in the country. Trainer Barry Purdon has both Merlin and Sooner The Bettor entered and says he’d like to see junior driver Harrison Orange head forward on Sooner The Bettor and wouldn’t be unhappy to see him stay in front. Over 1700m with the millionaire pacers likely to be driven cold, that makes Sooner The Bettor at least the best value bet at around $7 if not the best winning chance. While the Founders Cup contains many of our elite pacers, it has plenty of competition for what might ultimately prove the night’s highlight. Here is an overview of the other major races: Race 4, Alabar Classic, $60,000, 2200m: 6.19pm Some very, very good three-year-old pacers here including Jumal (6) and the only two horses to have beaten him, Allamericanplayer (3) and Freeze Frame (4). Jumal set the bar very high to start this campaign when he beat The Lazarus Effect fresh up but Freeze Frame was almost as impressive pushing Better Knuckle Up close here in an open class race last Friday. And while Allamericanplayer’s last start win was in an easier field he has already shown his best work can measure up to the southerners. Jumal may have the widest draw but is super quick off the gate and that could be the deciding factor. The bet: Jumal to win but his $1.40 no spoil so maybe the multi anchor. Race 5, Caduceus Club Ladyship Stakes, $70,000, 2200m: 6.58pm This looks All Of Me’s (3) race to lose after she drew significantly better then her main rivals. Trainer Cran Dalgety warned punters she was vulnerable last Friday and so it proved as she blew out at the 50m mark and Alecto grabbed her. Tonight she is drawn to run to the lead and Dalgety says she is “bang on” for the Group 2. The bet: All Of Me is $1.80 as the Box Seat Boost (under Futures on TAB site) and that is great value. Queen Lizzie the best place bet. Race 6, Majestic Horse Floats Greenlane Cup, $40,000, 1700m: 7.31pm Sees the return of potentially our best trotter in Hillbilly Blues (4) who was wonderful in the back end of 2025. He has good gate speed and should improve with his trial last Friday so if he runs to the front the big boy probably wins. But there is gate speed outside him from Belle Neige (6), who is his stablemate so that could be good or bad, while Meant To Be (7) and Bet N Win (8) could add to the early pressure. Watching that all unfold will be the old marvel Oscar Bonavena (11) who isn’t well suited by the distance but becomes a chance if they go crazy up front. The bet: Hillbilly Blues the best winning hope so if he gets close to $3 take it. View the full article -

Civil Liberty (Independence Hall), third-place finisher in last summer's GI Del Mar Futurity and a maiden of four career starts, will look to graduate in the GII Wood Memorial S. at Aqueduct Apr. 4. The 1 1/8-mile Wood Memorial offers 100-50-25-15-10 Kentucky Derby qualifying points. “That's definitely our goal,” trainer Chief Stipe O'Neill said of the Wood Memorial. “He acts like the distance won't be a problem for him at all. It wasn't a problem for his pops–his dad could run the distance. We're excited about him.” Carrying the colors of Great Friends Stables and Mark Davis, Civil Liberty was a close second behind 'TDN Rising Star, presented by Hagyard' Crude Velocity (Beau Liam) going 6 1/2 furlongs at Santa Anita Mar. 7. “It was a great effort,” O'Neill said. “It was a strong field of maidens, and he ran a winning race. I'm very proud of him. He came out of it in great shape.” The post Maiden of Four Career Starts Civil Liberty Aiming for Wood Memorial appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
