    • for Race 4 @ Winton today.  Major Medley paying $1.70 driven by Brent Barclay "appeared" to be doing handstands in the one-one sit. It almost looked a times and margins job for the entire race. Blind Freddy would know, hear and even see horses making their runs inside the last 600. Brent didn't move. Nek minute he's gone from being a good thing to virtually no hope. Caller described Major Medley as being "unlucky" but was he? Perhaps there was an issue with the horse I couldn't see?  Race was won by Big Boys Toys trained and driven by Kirstin Green paying $34 fixed odds.     
    • thanks for that, I wonder why they would do something like that? driving people sky$ way?   It will be interesting to see what the TAB comes up with? including suggesting you approach.
    • Edited Press Release The American Association of Equine Practitioners (AAEP) requests participation from Thoroughbred trainers and owners in the research phase of the AAEP's initiative to assist with the implementation of wearable biometric sensors to improve early detection of musculoskeletal injuries. In November 2023, the AAEP Racing Committee released a Request for Proposal (RFP) soliciting proposals from applicants for a joint project involving the development and application of wearable biometric sensor technologies that would be employed on all Thoroughbreds for all races and recorded workouts in the U.S. From 12 submissions received in response, six companies have been invited to submit a full-scale proposal detailing their implementation plan for meeting the AAEP's requirements for the “proof of principle,” or validation phase, of the initiative. Each company moving forward in the process has been asked to recruit 100 two-year-old Thoroughbreds to wear their sensor from Jan. 1 to Dec. 31, 2025. Data will be collected on each horse during this period and analyzed to determine accuracy of the sensor. Due to the large number of two-year-olds in training and racing that will be required to successfully test six unique sensors, the AAEP encourages racing managers to consider participating in this effort as sensor manufacturers begin recruiting horses for the project. “We are very excited for the next phase as it brings the sport much closer to utilizing this emerging technology as another important tool in injury detection and prevention,” said Dr. Sara Langsam, AAEP Racing Committee chair. “This effort benefits the entire industry, and we hope trainers and owners will embrace the opportunity to participate.” For more information, contact Sally Baker, AAEP director of marketing and public relations, at sbaker@aaep.org.

    • Same. Don't bother watching now with 1/4 screen max. Just watch selected replays on Love Racing later though full screen works live there too.
    • Sunrise at Old Hilltop, an event which offers fans a chance to take a behind-the-scenes walking tour of Pimlico Race Course, will once again be part of the Preakness week lineup in 2024, it was announced via presser Friday. Admission is free to the tours–which run on a first-come, first-served basis between 6:00 and 9:00 a.m. from Tuesday, May 14 through Friday, May 17–and patrons can sign up at the registration tent on the track apron. It will not be required to register ahead of time in order to take a tour. In addition to enjoying the sunrise, fans will watch horses work on the track before meeting them up close; meet and greet horsemen; and learn some Preakness history. Tours begin with a jockey demonstration and stops along the way include the jockeys' room, the Pimlico stakes barn, and a visit to the track blacksmith, concluding inside the grandstand for a discussion on aftercare with representatives from Beyond The Wire, the Thoroughbred Makeover Project, and the Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance. Parking for the Sunrise at Old Hilltop tours is in the Rogers Avenue lot at the intersection of Northern Parkway and Woodcrest Avenue. Fans are encouraged to arrive early as spots fill up quickly. The lot will be closed and locked promptly at 10:00 a.m. More information can be found on the Preakness website.
