I bet the local photographers loved this result!!! By David K. Li Dark horse Seize the Grey galloped to a Preakness Stakes victory in Baltimore on Saturday, denying Mystik Dan a place in history and delivering another garland of black-eyed Susans to legendary trainer D. Wayne Lukas. The number of horses to win the Triple Crown will remain at 13 after the Kentucky Derby champion Mystik Dan finished in second place. The last Triple Crown winner was Justify in 2018. The mild 9-1 long shot Seize the Grey is owned by 2,750 micro-investors, making for a wild scene in the winner’s circle. “Can you imagine how many people are going to relish in this and enjoy it,” Lukas told NBC Sports moments after the race. “It’ll be really something.” Seize the Grey’s triumph marked the seventh Preakness win for the 88-year-old Lukas, who now has seven garlands of black-eyed Susans after previous victories in 1980, 1985, 1994, 1995, 1999 and 2013. Lukas could barely take a step to the winner’s circle without being mobbed by competitors and fellow trainers who wanted to congratulate him. “I think they’re trying to get rid of and probably want me to retire,” the joyous Lukas joked. Seize the Grey led at the top of the stretch when Mystik Dan kicked it into high gear and looked poised to take the lead. But Seize the Grey never relented and ended up pulling away in the final strides for a comfortable, 2¼-length victory. The Preakness winner paid $21.60 for a $2 win bet, as 2-1 favorite Mystik Dan took place and Catching Freedom show. Mystik Dan’s trainer, Kenny McPeek, had nothing but kind words for the trainer who denied him a possible Triple Crown. “Wayne’s an amazing guy and he’s a guy I’ve always idolized, and if I’m going to be beat, it’s fine to be beat by him,” McPeek said. “Actually, over the years, I’ve been beat by him plenty of times.” Only Bob Baffert, with eight Preakness wins, has more than Lukas. The Pat Day Mile winner, Seize the Grey, was guided to victory on Saturday by 25-year-old jockey Jaime Torres. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/sports/preakness-winner-2024-horse-race-rcna151757?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAAR07zwcr6-heWC0yKWEdNUVrQjdJjh9D6CFtu15JmGDvWdjieCwjb9CKNIY_aem_AX5Sk1p5iR2-hGsQmGzHf5p5QshFml5dcKftnd58Kmj3Hp51QFVEX3HbGjkDkLIL2DXebeMPeYXW7vt_ZIDOknon

How Willo handles public criticism ====================== Melbourne Cup winning jockey Craig Williams has explained how he handles the public criticism that comes with being a high-profile jockey, like he is. Williams was at his best on Saturday, guiding Bella Nipotina to victory in the G1 Doomben 10,000. However, he’s also found himself the target of online vitriol from punters and criticism from connections when he’s been defeated on top gallopers like Giga Kick and Mr Brightside this season. “I don’t always get it right on a racetrack and also some people have other opinions on what they believe is right and wrong, what’s possible and impossible,” Williams said. “My job is to just to consistently ride well and make less mistakes than the next person because I am human, I am going to make them. That’s all I worry about doing and making sure that most importantly, that my core business is comfortable with me. My job is about riding winners and keeping rides, securing the next future horse that’s coming on. “Unfortunately, in sport and with different outlets now or different means, people think they’re experts, they think they have a right to say something, but I guess I’ve already learnt that you can only control the controllables. That is what I do and how I handle what I do, rightly or wrongly.” Williams’ success aboard Bella Nipotina on the weekend was his 77th group one victory in his career and his second straight win in the Doomben 10,000, after taking it out last year on Giga Kick.

great result! I have always attempted to be of help to them, its been a long long road, lots of patriarchal prejudice to hurdle along the way!

Good to see progressive be made with the likes of this. How healthy are the servings in jockey room cafes?

just happened log on to tab and the full page is back working, with thanks!

the joys of fast fibre... via 60" tv and two laptops...

(asking for a friend!) at what age does that old kick in? ps, we don't waste a cent of the likes of $ky etc, know how to stream all sports for free (legal to)

Actually, try using the ruling class, who as well as having economic control, also have hegemonic over info and propaganda that is acceptable within the industry! racing is a classic for understanding that sort of thing! ps, they love having others! chirping the party line for their interests...

In 95 when I spend a year 'researching racing ownership in nz', where I had full access to all info in the NZRC Head Office Library, it rather appeared that here was a Industry with very little 'research', (a few Royal Commissions, lots of moaning contained in them!) almost nothing on the costs etc or owning etc.. I believe that was because, especially in the first 30 years of the TAB's life, it was very much, CASH being counted at the end of the day, a few expensive here and there. odds on? there were never any costing done...

pardon, Are you serious!

It seems to me that a lot of the changes are on the sports side, for which the sport of baseball there are a couple of nice little tweaks. You can now bet on so many events for each match, of course! the majority of those types of bets are totally on offer for your average dumb punter! Another thing I'm not keen on is the way that at the top of the page, it always seems to open with the likes of your balance being shown, you have to hide it manually! With the old system one could click hide and if you wanted to show it then you could click show! Only a small thing but strange that they seem to have taken that option away?

Finally got a reply. "Thank you for your email and apologies for the delay in getting back to you, We have received a lot of feedback surrounding the lack of the full screen format and the team are looking into this! Please bear with us whilst the team look through all the feedback received over the last couple of weeks. Ngā Mihi, "

Jason Kelce @JasonKelce I’m sorry everyone, wasn’t trying to get people riled up, I really thought it was just known that in the 70s steroid use was rampant. I’m not trying to take away from Secretariat’s, or anyone from that eras legacy. You’re right, without proof it is unfair to assume these things publicly, I apologize. 4:22 AM · May 10, 2024 · 2.8M Views

Jason Kelce apologizes after suggesting Triple Crown winner Secretariat used performance-enhancing drug The former Eagles center took some heat from horse racing fans this week Former Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce found himself in deep trouble with the horse-racing community this week. Kelce suggested that Triple Crown winner Secretariat was on steroids when the horse went on its historic run in 1973. Kelce's comments even drew a response from the family that owned Secretariat. During a recent episode of the "New Heights" podcast, Jason and Travis Kelce were discussing the latter's experience at the Kentucky Derby. When the topic of Secretariat came up, Jason said the horse was doing some major doping when it shot to the top of the record books. "It's not that wild because Secretariat was juiced to the gills," Kelce said. "What are we talking about here? Secretariat just so happens to be right in the heart of the steroid era? In 1973, every NFL player, every baseball player, they were juicing to the gills? You don't think Secretariat was f--king juiced to the rafters? Of course it's the fastest horse of all time. They didn't drug test Secretariat the way they did Mystik Dan." Shortly after that episode was released, Kelce found himself in some social media battles with some of Secretariat's biggest supporters. While admitting it is "impossible" to know whether Secretariat really was on steroids, Kelce pointed to the horse's enlarged heart as further evidence for his argument. All of that discussion reached the family of Secretariat owner, the late Penny Chenery. John and Kate Tweedy, the son and daughter of Chenery, wrote that their parents raised and trained Secretariat with the utmost integrity. "The fact is Secretariat was never given performance enhancing drugs," Kate and John Tweedy wrote. "Indeed, both our mother Penny Chenery, who managed Secretariat, and our grandfather Christopher Chenery, who bred him, were morally committed to the rule that horses should only be given healthy feed, water and such medical treatment as is required to maintain health." After plenty of back-and-forth, the former NFL star issued an apology on social media, saying it was unfair to accuse Secretariat of cheating without hard evidence. Kelce might have finally made some peace with the horse-racing community, but he should probably keep his distance next weekend when the Preakness Stakes run in Baltimore. https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/jason-kelce-apologizes-after-suggesting-triple-crown-winner-secretariat-used-performance-enhancing-drugs/
