200000 Pocahontas $200,000 Pocahontas (Grade II) 48th Running – Saturday, Sept. 17, 2016 (September Meet) 2-Year-Old Fillies at 1 1/16 Miles on Dirt at Churchill Downs Stakes Record – 1:44.38, Untapable (2013) Top Beyer Speed Figure – 101, Unbridled Elaine (2000) Average Winning Beyer Speed Figure (Since 1992) – 85.3 (2,048/24) Road to the Kentucky Oaks Prep Season Top 4 Points: 10-4-2-1 Breeders’ Cup “Win and You’re In” Juvenile Fillies Division Name Origin: The race was first held on Thanksgiving Day, 1969, and was fittingly named for Pocahontas, the daughter of Native-American chief Powhatan who aided the early American settlers. Additionally, Pocahontas (1837-70) was an English Thoroughbred racehorse and the dam of three sires who had a great influence on the breed. Thoroughbred Heritage refers to Pocahontas as “one of the most influential Thoroughbreds of all time, male or female.” She produced three great sons – Stockwell, Rataplan, and King Tom – and five influential daughters. Stockwell is the most notable of the three, as he appears in the pedigrees of Phalaris, Nearco, and Native Dancer. She produced a total of 15 foals, the last at the age of 25. It is believed that Pocahontas may have carried the “X-factor,” a genetic mutation responsible for causing an enlarged heart. This is possibly because she had 13 crosses to Eclipse in her pedigree. Many stallions have had multiple crosses to Pocahontas, including: The Tetrarch (7), Man o’ War (9), Precipitation (27), Nearco (37), Raise A Native (175), Northern Dancer (272), Mr. Prospector (353) and Secretariat (249).

The show airs each Saturday morning on satellite radio from ten a.m. to noon. If you’re still in your car for the 5:05 post time of the Grade III Gotham for three- year-olds, follow the race when Finley and Johnson return to cover the action at Aqueduct.

  • Undefeated Maxfield Ready for Comeback in Matt Winn
    FRIDAY, MAY 22, 2020 TAKING STOCK: TJC APPLIES A BAND-AID UNDEFEATED MAXFIELD by Sid Fernando READY FOR COMEBACK IN Let's cut to the chase. The recent dictum from The Jockey Club (TJC) that North American stallions born in 2020 and forward MATT WINN will be limited to covering 140 mares in a calendar year is an attempt to divert mares from popular stallions to others not as in demand. It's a simplistic approach to a complex issue, and it's akin to applying a Band-Aid to a cut that requires stitches. These days, stallions that need help the most are third- and fourth-year horses and proven mid-priced bread-and-butter stallions with some age on them. Why? Because they aren't commercially popular in the sales ring. In contrast, first-year sires and elite-level stallions are, and they tend to attract the greatest number of mares because most breeders, especially in Kentucky, are planning matings for the sales ring.
