    • Seeing as it is a racing chat forum Here's a pretty tame topic for some of the many watchers to maybe have a post. Only rule, no sniping at other's selections Titicaca 13/3.90  Good value, made up a huge amount of ground in the Metropolitan (2600m), then failed in the NZ Cup, I presume due to the heavy track. Surprising as he is by Tarzino Adrian Bull is a renowned trainer of stayers and Kelly Myers gets the ride. Nereus and Ghazzah to also run well  
    • Reading HRNZ site 28 Southland horses in Ashburton tomorrow, tell me it had no effect on yesterday cup day and I won't believe ya.
    • California racing just got dealt another brutal blow. In a year when this sport should be doing everything possible to stabilize a fragile circuit, the loss of Grade I status for the Frank E. Kilroe Mile and multiple downgrades at Santa Anita and Del Mar is very concerning. When you strip premier events in the middle of a wagering and field-size crisis, you're not “protecting the integrity of the pattern,” you're accelerating the decline of one of the game's few remaining flagship jurisdictions. This outcome might look neat on a spreadsheet, but on the ground in California it means fewer top-class opportunities, weaker cards, and less incentive for owners to keep investing in this circuit. Hard to talk about “national balance” when Kentucky adds a Grade I turf sprint and fresh upgrades at Churchill and Kentucky Downs, while California absorbs a net loss in graded quality. At a time when the industry says it wants West Coast stability, this grading slate feels like the exact opposite of leadership.

    • Last seen beating Horse of the Year candidate Sovereignty (Into Mischief) in the GI Curlin Florida Derby in March but forced off the Kentucky Derby trail by injury, TAPPAN STREET (c, 3, Into Mischief–Virginia Key, by Distorted Humor) returned to the races Friday a winner in allowance company at Gulfstream. Sitting second on the long run up the backstretch in this one-turn mile spot, the 1-9 favorite let Steppe (Sky Mesa) do the heavy lifting from the rail but had to dig in to get by that rival as they turned for home. Steppe was game to the inside but ultimately second best on the day as Tappan Street drove past in the later stages to pick up the win for Brad Cox and Irad Oritz Jr. Lifetime Record: 4-3-1-0. O-WinStar Farm LLC, CHC, Inc., Cold Press Racing and Qatar Racing; B-Blue Heaven Farm; T-Brad Cox. Sales History: $1,000,000 ylg '23 FTSAUG.   The post Tappan Street Returns A Winner In Gulfstream Allowance appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
