Preakness Stakes Field

Wednesday, May 14th, 2008

The only horse with a shot at the Triple Crown will be Kentucky Derby winner Big Brown.

Eight Belles, Kentucky Derby Results,

Sunday, May 4th, 2008

Hes a monsterous horse in size, he looks great, and he tore through 1 1/4 miles like it was a walk down the street. He even had enough energy after the race to bite his accompanying horse on the ear a few times. But unfortunately, that great story about the homeless trainer who comes back [...]

George, a middle-aged immigrant from Jamaica, is looking down at a crumpled NY Post horse racing column. I should have trusted myself, he says. I would have picked a trifecta.
