  • Grade Ii Louisiana Derby Jumps to $750000
    GRADE II LOUISIANA DERBY JUMPS TO $750,000 AND WILL BE RUN AT 1 1/8 MILES ON MARCH 27 BIG EVENT SCHEDULE CHANGES & TWO NEW RACES FOR FILLIES & MARES HIGHLIGHT FAIR GROUNDS’ RECORD $7.24 MILLION, 66-RACE STAKES MENU NEW ORLEANS, LA (Tuesday, Aug. 11, 2009) – Fair Grounds Race Course and Slots has raised the purse of the Grade II Louisiana Derby to $750,000, increased the distance to 1 1/8 miles and moved the 3-year-old fixture to Saturday, March 27 – five weeks prior to the Kentucky Derby. The significant changes to its signature race and accompanying races, as well as the addition of two new dirt races for fillies and mares, highlight a record $7.24 million, 66-race stakes schedule for the 2009-2010 Fair Grounds meet. The 85-day Fair Grounds meet will have its earliest start date ever when the historic New Orleans racetrack opens on Friday, Nov. 6, a week earlier than last year and well ahead of the old Thanksgiving Day opener of years past. Closing day for the action-packed 21-week season will be Sunday, March 28. In recent years, the Louisiana Derby, which produced Kentucky Derby winners Black Gold (1924) and Grindstone (1996), had been a $600,000 race over 1 1/16 miles and was carded seven weeks prior to the Kentucky Derby Presented by Yum! Brands. The momentous switch of the 97th Louisiana Derby to closing weekend, along with moving the Grade II, $400,000 Fair Grounds Oaks to headline a stakes quartet for fillies and mares on Friday, March 26, has altered both series of races.

  • Preakness Analysis
    PREAKNESS ANALYSIS By Jerry Brown When we analyzed the Derby a couple of weeks ago, we pointed out that in recent years only two or three horses per year were running tops on the first Saturday in May. Sure enough, although three of the first four finishers equaled their previous top, only two ran new tops. While two of the three fastest horses in the Preakness come out of the Derby, this race has a decidedly different flavor, from a sheets handicapping point-of-view several of the slower horses have a chance to run new tops. CHEROKEE’S BOY got very good last fall, banging out a series of very good numbers. It looks like his connections were intent on making hay while the sun shines with this precocious colt, racing him 11 times since last September without a real break, which may be why he hasn’t broken through. Still, he has held up very well, and two of his last three are lifetime tops. He goes into this race a couple of points too slow to be a serious contender, but since he has only developed one point from his 2yr-old top a new top may be coming, and with four weeks rest it could happen now. Unlikely winner, but has a chance for a check. Since 1998, Capuano has had 133 starts with spring (March 1 to June 30) 3-yr olds. Only 23% have run a new top, with another 13% pairing up previous tops—both the new top and combined percentage are the lowest of any trainer in this race.
