He then won the Grade 3 Robert B. Lewis, also at eight-and-a- half furlongs at Santa Anita on Feb. 1 before his disappoint- ment in the San Felipe. After the San Felipe, Baffert said that Thousand Words was closer to the :22.84 first-quarter pace set by Authentic than he had expected. ”I know they were going quick and I knew Thousand Words was closer and I probably learned a lot from him,” Baffert said. “He doesn’t want to be that close. He sort of flattened out at the end. I was disappointed with him.” Bred in Florida by Amy Tarrant’s Hardacre Farm in Ocala, Fla., Thousand Words has earned $235,000 in his four starts for owners Albaugh Family Stables LLC and Spendthrift Farm LLC. By Pioneerof the Nile out of the multiple graded stakes- winning mare Pomroy’s Pistol, by Pomeroy, he first received notoriety as a yearling at the 2018 Keeneland September Yearling Sale where the Albaugh Family and Spendthrift pur- chased him for $1,000,000 from the Brookdale Sales consign- ment. Saturday, Thousand Words will start from post four and Joe Talamo will ride for the first time. Background will be making his fourth career start for Giddyup Stables LLC after winning his first race by four-and- a-half lengths in his second start against special weight maid- ens at Oaklawn going a mile-and-one-sixteenth on Feb. 17. In his only start since, the chestnut son of Journeyman Stud stallion Khozan was third behind winner and Oaklawn Stakes foe Taishan in a first-level $80,000 optional claiming race over a sloppy and sealed mile-and-one-sixteenth at Oaklawn on Mar. 14. However, he had a bit of an excuse that day after breaking slow from the starting gate. Background is out of Ephyra, by Corninthian and he was bred in Florida by Brent and Crystal Fernung of Ocala. He has won one of three starts with earnings of $68,500 and Joseph Rocco Jr. will ride from post 11. Taishan, who is trained by Richard Baltas for Calvin Nguyen and Joey Tran, was also based in Southern California where he finished fourth in Authentic’s Grade 3 Sham Stakes at a mile at Santa Anita on Jan. 4 before shipping to Oaklawn to finish fifth in the Grade 3 Southwest Stakes won by Silver Prospector at a mile-and-one-sixteenth on Feb. 17. His only race since was the victory in the Mar. 14 optional claiming event for his second career win in four starts.

Trainer Steve Asmussen will saddle two for the Oaklawn Stakes in Gold Street for owner Mike McCarty and Basin for Jackpot Farm. Gold Street won the $150,000 Smarty Jones Stakes at a mile on a muddy track at Oaklawn before finishing ninth in the Southwest after traffic trouble early.

  • Eoin Harty in Profile by ED GOLDEN Turf Writer
    Eoin Harty in Profile By ED GOLDEN Turf Writer There was always an air of levity at Bob Baffert’s barn when Eoin Harty worked there. Not that the game they played wasn’t serious. It was. Preparing 1,000-pound equine athletes with spindly legs to perform at their peak on the world’s stage is not a job for anyone in short pants. During the seven years Harty was Baffert’s assistant, they won the Kentucky Derby twice–with Silver Charm in 1997 and Real Quiet in 1998–and missed by a heart-breaking nose with Cavonnier in 1996. But in between the regimented tedium, there was always time for a good hoot. Fact is, it was and still is part of Baffert’s DNA. “He’s got a sense of humor,” Baffert said of Harty. “He has a good disposition and we liked to have a lot of fun, so he fit in well.” But work came first, and Harty had his priorities in order. His foundation was ingrained. Lean and sinewy with chiseled features, Harty hails from a family of Irish horsemen that extends back at least five generations. His grandfather, great grandfather, and great-great grandfather were trainers in their native Ireland. Eoin (pronounced Owen) began to hone his craft under the learned wing of the late John Russell before joining with Baffert, who saw a © BENOIT PHOTO master in the making. “Eoin showed up every day,” Baffert recalled. “He works hard and he’s passionate about what he does, and I like that in all my assistants.

  • Goldencents Set to Run Next in Cigar Mile
    Goldencents Set to Run Next in Cigar Mile By Steve Haskin, @SteveHaskin BloodHorse.com Photo: Dave Harmon Goldencents won the 2013 Breeders' Cup Dirt Mile. Goldencents, winner of the Breeders' Cup Dirt Mile (gr. I), will make his next start in the $500,000 Cigar Mile (gr. I) at Aqueduct Racetrack Nov. 30, according to majority owner Glenn Sorgenstein. "After the Breeders' Cup we looked at the race and thought (the Cigar mile) might come up little quick, but Doug (trainer O'Neill) and I decided to watch the horse and let him tell us," Sorgenstein said Nov. 7. "He bounced out of the race as if he hadn't run. Each day, his ears were pricked, he was alert and ready to go, and he was looking for his food. He showed no signs of stiffness and has been perfectly sound. "Originally, I had told Doug that the Malibu Stakes (gr. I) makes sense, because we wouldn't have to ship, it was his home track (Santa Anita Park), and we'd be assured of good weather. But then I started thinking, 'What the heck; from the polls we've seen, he's second to Will Take Charge as leading 3-year-old, and sending him to New York would give the East Coast writers an opportunity to see him race. And Aqueduct is a good fast track where speed holds.' "It took while, but we've finally figured out the jockey situation and we feel confident with Rafael (Bejarano). We feel he'll (Goldencents) do great in New York and we owed it to him to get him out there.

  • Tht Bloodstock: Patterns of Motion Analysis with Kerry Thomas and Pete Denk
    THT BLOODSTOCK: PATTERNS OF MOTION ANALYSIS WITH KERRY THOMAS AND PETE DENK KENTUCKY DERBY 147 | MAY 1, 2021 | THT BLOODSTOCK: PATTERNS OF MOTION | 1 KENTUCKY DERBY 2021 HERD DYNAMICS ANALYSIS A personal note from Kerry M. Thomas This year’s Kentucky Derby report was in jeopardy. Not because of all that has been going on in the world, but because the uncertainty and overwhelming emotional stress in my personal life had me close to pulling out the white flag. My dearly beloved life-partner Tonia, who had been battling cancer since the summer of 2018, passed away in March. Breast cancer had traveled to her brain, (my father died of brain cancer, also at home, in 2002) and two days after my birthday on October 22, 2020, we were told Tonia had 6 months to live. She passed on March 6th, 2021. Two days after Tonia left us, my mother, who I also am caregiver for, fell and fractured her hip. At the writing of this very sentence my mother is yet in a rehab facility struggling to recover. It goes without saying that as March churned into April, doing our 11th derby report wasn’t high on my list of things to do. But there was something that wasn’t right about not doing our analysis of the contenders. It was a quiet nudge I was unable to ignore. I just couldn’t let the horses run away from me. I began to realize that not doing the report wasn’t an option, I needed the distraction. Horses are my passion and racing is the sport I love.

  • American Pharoah: Just One of the Triple Crown Winners You’Ll Find Floating Down the Mississippi Written By: Amanda Duckworth March 19, 2018
    American Pharoah: Just one of the Triple Crown winners you’ll find floating down the Mississippi Written by: Amanda Duckworth March 19, 2018 The 120-foot long American Pharoah is the largest of the Turn Services New Orleans fleet. Photos: Turn Services Anyone in New Orleans for the Louisiana Derby should keep an eye out on the riv- er for American Pharoah. Not THE American Pharoah, of course, but rather M/V American Pharoah, one of about two dozen tow boats named after famous race- horses that make up Turn Services’ fleet. While it might be unexpected to see the likes of Secretariat and Seattle Slew floating down the Mississippi River, Turn Services was founded in 1990 and is one of the largest independent fleeting and shifting compa- nies in the United States. The company’s current chairman, David Fennelly, was born in Ireland, and when he came to the United States to make his way in the world, he started as a groom at Spendthrift Farm. “He decided to try to make the American Dream happen, and he moved to Lexington to become a farm hand,” said Mario Muñoz, the president of Turn Services. “Mucking stalls and doing whatever he could do, that was his first foray into business here. He came to the U.S. with about $400 in his pocket, got a job at Spendthrift, and the rest is history. He’s always loved horses.” 1 The Native Dancer: “There are a lot of great horses from the past that have captured the hearts and minds of the world when they were racing, and we try to honor them,” says Turn Services president Mario Muñoz.
