    • Moi??  joie de vivre moi! However in life (apart from Trumpeske lunatics) there's always rules...ok? Even 'scrum rules' where in the dark depths non rules based thuggery...da boys will sort it out themselves..thuggery rules ok? And THE industry that requires rules more than ANY other is the gambling industry If someone is cheating...aka Sam Collett...by smacking horses in places forbotten...or using 40% more strikes than the next jockey...beaten a neck Then obviously...that cant be tolerated So if Sammy is smacking some horse indiscriminately  over the head and flattening ears, contacting eyes et el ...and Winnie's general public finds out...the narrative is the thoroughbred industry loses the 'social licence' to operate and you'll end up betting on two up in dark alleyways...is that what you really really want?
    • There you go Shab's given you the answer! They even let you back every single runner to win 5K...enables you to be like Pro HK punters who back 2/3/4 runners at times to fit their 'whatever' profit margins Always remember of course these 'big bets' you see on the telly..winning over the set limits...are obviously long term losers! Or do you think they have 'special' punters they let on for any amount to avoid bad publicity in restricting 'big time players' in the industry...aka mates rates?
    • So Happy (Runhappy) took the lead in midstretch, and refused to come back, keeping his perfect record with a strong win in the GII San Vicente Stakes. In no rush to reel in the leaders as Acknowledgemeplz (Bucchero) and Greenwich Village (Quality Road) posted fractions of :22.03 and a half in::43.56, he was the looming danger coming through the final bend after six panels in 1:08.41. The former had tried to give the field the slip coming off the bend, but So Happy was rapidly closing the gap into the final sixteenth with 'TDN Rising Star, presented by Hagyard' Buetane (Tiz the Law) calling on his outside.  He dispatched his competition passing that marker to hit the wire in 1:21.12 with air to spare. Betting favorite Buetane grabbed second while Acknowledgemeplz gamely held on to third. So Happy was last seen breaking his maiden at Del Mar Nov. 22 by three quarters of a length over a field which included two next out winners and GSP Blacksmith (Liam's Map). Sales history: $12,000 Wlg '23 KEENOV; $20,000 Ylg '24 FTKOCT; $150,000 2yo '25 OBSMAR. O-Norman Stables LLC and Saints or Sinners; B-Leverett S. Miller (KY); T-Mark Glatt.   The post Runhappy’s So Happy Denies All Challenges, Claims San Vicente appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.

    • 'TDN Rising Star, presented by Hagyard' EXPLORA (Blame) made easy work of Saturday's Santa Ynez Stakes, going from last to first and drawing off to pick up the win for trainer Bob Baffert. Last seen running second in the GI Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies, the 1-9 favorite was scratched from the GII Golden Rod Stakes in late November. Last of the five-horse field, Explora trailed for much of the run down the backstretch before ranging up four wide at the top of the stretch and handily putting this field behind her under a confident ride from Juan Hernandez. Lifetime Record: MGISP, 5-3-2-0. O-Pegram, Michael E., Watson, Karl and Weitman, Paul; B-Mesingw Farm, LLC; T-Bob Baffert. Sales History: $22,000 ylg'24 KEESEP, $350,000 2yo '25 EASMAY.   The post Explora Last To First In Santa Ynez appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.

    • Accoring to DRF Formulator statistics, from near-enough a 100-horse sample, Hall of Fame conditioner Bill Mott strikes with about five percent of his first-starters, but Wathnan Racing's THUNDEROUSLY (c, 3, Gun Runner–Princess Warrior, by Midshipman) made it two very taking debut scorers Saturday at Gulfstream when he kicked off his career in rousing fashion around two turns. Off at odds of 19-5, the $300,000 Keeneland September purchase bounced alertly from gate three and settled midfield on the inside as Ramajay (Knicks Go) galloped them along through even sectionals. Given the hurry-up by Junior Alvarado with a bit less than three furlongs to race, Thunderously gained ominous ground, swooped in front with just under an eighth of a mile to the short-stretch wire and streaked clear to take it by five lengths. Hailing from the deeper female family of champion and GI Kentucky Derby hero Unbridled, Thunderously is kin to the 2-year-old colt Henriques (Not This Time) and a yearling Nyquist filly. 8th-Gulfstream, $68,000, Msw, 1-10, 3yo, 1 1/16m, 1:45.87, ft, 5 lengths. THUNDEROUSLY (c, 3, Gun Runner–Princess Warrior {GSW & GISP, $456,664}, by Midshipman) Sales history: $300,000 Ylg '24 KEESEP. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $40,800. Click for the Equibase.com chart or VIDEO, sponsored by FanDuel TV. O-Wathnan Racing; B-Evan Trommer Jr, CDM Bloodstock & Crocket Farm (KY); T-William I Mott.   The post Gun Runner’s Thunderously Another First-Out Winner for Mott appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
