Celestial Insight Is by Scat Daddy – the Hottest International Sire in the World PASSPORT OVERVIEW Coming off of a career best performance (91 Beyer) in her most recent start, Celestial Insight is by Scat Daddy – the hottest international sire in the world.

She has proven a consistent and hard knocking filly that has come into Graded Stakes form right in time for this summer. Below is a chronological timeline of her race career with some highlights: 2015 SEPTEMBER 19TH, 2015 - MAIDEN SPECIAL WEIGHT AT BELMONT PARK (6F) Celestial Insight established herself as a precocious and talented filly going undefeated in her 2 year-old year with trainer Wesley Ward. She impressively broke her maiden at 6 furlongs against a tough New York-based field and followed up that effort with gutsy7 ¾ length victory in Allowance company going one mile.

As she was gearing up for the Daliah Stakes at Laurel in early April she got sick and needed additional time off, but upon her return to the work tab, laid out several impressive workouts which encouraged new trainer Graham Motion to ambitiously start her in Graded Stakes company for her 5 year-old debut.

  • Numbers Don't Lie. but They Can Be Perplexing
    MONDAY, AUGUST 30, 2021 NUMBERS DON'T LIE. BUT MEDINA SPIRIT RETURNS A WINNER IN SHARED BELIEF THEY CAN BE PERPLEXING Zedan Racing Stable's Medina Spirit (Protonico), whose GI Kentucky Derby title still remains in limbo due to a betamethasone positive, returned to the winner's circle with a wire-to-wire victory in the Shared Belief S. at Del Mar Sunday. The dark bay colt, sent off the 4-5 favorite, went quickly to the lead and was tracked by second choice Rock Your World (Candy Ride {Arg}) through a quarter in :22.52 and a half in :46.92. The two favorites were swarmed by longshots nearing the stretch as GI Santa Anita Derby winner Rock Your World drifted out slightly in upper stretch and Team Merchants (Nyquist) and Stilleto Boy (Shackleford) exchanged bumps, but Medina Spirit ran straight and true and powered home a one-length winner over the resurgent Rock Your World. Following an inquiry into the infractions in upper stretch, the stewards determined Team Merchants, who finished fourth, was responsible for the interference with third-place finisher Stilleto Boy and allowed Essential Quality overtakes Midnight Bourbon | Sarah Andrew the order of finish to stand.

    The Kentucky Derby is a part of the American fabric. During “The Most Exciting Two Minutes in Sports,” the country turns its eyes to Churchill Downs in Louisville, Kentucky, to see which 3-year-old horse will win the “Run for the Roses.” This Inside Track to the Kentucky Derby is a combination of some of the best handicapping forces in the country. The Racing Dudes have been at it for years, offering handicapping picks and analysis daily for over 7 years. This year, all hands are on deck. Racing Dudes Aaron and Jared have scoured over the Kentucky Derby field for months, while Mike "Saratoga Slim" Spector and Mike Somich have also been busy at work. Mike Somich is known for his massive multi-race scores. He is fairly new to the team, but is already making many fans with his Pick 4 and Pick 5 analysis and picks. Saratoga Slim is the master at crushing major tickets on big days. Last year, he cashed in HUGE at the Kentucky Derby and Belmont Stakes. In addition to his handi- capping skills, Saratoga Slim is also an award-winning Kentucky Derby pace writer. And a special bonus this year, Jonathon Kinchen will be contributing to this Inside Track to the Kentucky Derby! Jonathon was the 2015 NHC Tour champion and remains the only player in NHC history to have both of his entries qualify for The Final Table. Jonathon’s work has been seen with DRF, as well as more recently on Fox Sports. You can also check out the In The Money Players’ Podcast, which he does with tournament expert Peter T.

  • Saudi Cup Prize Money Being Withheld
    TUESDAY, APRIL 14, 2020 SAUDI CUP PRIZE LITTLEPRINCESSEMMA DELIVERS HALF-SISTER TO AMERICAN PHAROAH MONEY BEING WITHHELD by Christie DeBernardis Littleprincessemma (Yankee Gentleman), dam of Triple Crown hero American Pharoah (Pioneerof the Nile), produced a Tapit filly around 10 p.m. on Easter at Jane Lyon=s Summer Wind Farm in Georgetown, Kentucky. Weighing in at over 130 pounds, the filly was born chestnut with three white socks and a unique semi-circle on her forehead. However, the silver around her eyes and muzzle and flecked through her coat indicate she will turn gray like her famed sire. AShe was a very large foal and probably the longest-legged foal Emma has ever had for us. She is the sixth of her foals that we have delivered,@ said Lyon with the tones of a proud mother. ABefore I went to the barn, I said, >Let=s see, this filly will be bright chestnut with a lot of white [like Emma=s last three foals]. Everybody was laughing.

    FIRST OUT OF THE GATE BELMONT CHILD CARE ASSOCIATION, INC. There are only so many moments in life you’ll remember forever. The Finest Horses The Greatest Experiences The Perfect Partnership Partners in some of the best moments of your life. Partnership Interests Now Available 888-606-7223 CENTENNIALFARMS.COM And They’re Off... Our one-of-a kind charity has been sustained for many years thanks to the incredible generosity of the many caring horsemen and women in the thoroughbred racing industry. Belmont Child Care Association’s Anna House was built to create a safe and nurturing environment for the children of backstretch workers at Belmont Park, Aqueduct Race Track, and Saratoga Race Course, and Bright Horizons was engaged to operate an early childhood education and development program to teach our children English and provide them with the fundamental learning blocks that most of us take for granted. Following graduation from Anna House, our children enter kindergarten in the local public schools at the same level as their peers. Our graduates now join us in our school-age enrichment program before school, on the weekends, and during vacations. Thanks to our Olivia’s Herd after-school program, they are provided with free tutoring during elementary school and middle school. Anna House is open 365 days a year to accommodate the schedules of the backstretch workers, and BCCA also funds several programs for children in Saratoga during the summer meet. Over the past five years, BCCA has worked to make its mark in the community, and we are now the proud recipients of grant funding from local and state governments, family foundations, and individual and corporate donors.

  • TDN AMERICA TODAY Poetic Flare (Ire) (Dawn Approach {Ire}) with an Impressive WIT FINDS IT EASY LIKE a SUNDAY MORNING Success in Wednesday=S G1 Qatar Sussex S
    THURSDAY, JULY 29, 2021 WIT FINDS IT EASY LIKE GRITTY WHITMORE 'STILL THERE BEING HONEST' by Mike Kane A SUNDAY MORNING SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y.--To illustrate his point about Whitmore (Pleasantly Perfect), trainer Ron Moquett stepped into the Eclipse Award winner's stall Sunday morning saying, "This is not the time to do this," and rubbed his star's coat with a small towel. Showing his displeasure, Whitmore promptly kicked the wall. Hard. "He is as consistent as the day is long," Moquett said, smiling. "He will do everything the exact same way. Our job is to get done, working with him, knowing his idiosyncrasies." Moquett and his staff live in Whitmore's world, ruled by the 8-year-old gelding who is scheduled to make his 42nd career start--the 13th in a Grade I--in the Alfred G. Vanderbilt H. Saturday at Saratoga Race Course. Dependable as he is gritty and irascible, Whitmore, who was 19th in the 2016 GI Kentucky Derby, has flourished in the sprint division and was the 2020 champion.

Kentucky Derby favorite Tiz the Law gallops Wednesday morning under exercise rider Heather Smullen at Churchill Downs. @Coady Photography 9 . 2 . 2 0 PAGE 1 Tiz the Law, Fellow 3-Year-Olds Look to Parlay Derby Glory into Classic Success A Kentucky Derby delayed by more than four months didn’t deter 17 3-year-olds from tackling 3-5 morning line favorite TIZ THE LAW in Saturday’s Run for the Roses at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Ky. While a win the 1 ¼-mile Derby clearly ensures immortal status in the pantheons of the sport, 3-year-olds in general have a long and storied history of success in the $7 million Breeders’ Cup Classic, and will surely look to add to the leger Nov. 7 at Keeneland. The Derby is the obvious highlight of an abbreviated five-day Churchill meet that also offers Friday’s Kentucky Oaks (G1) and a showdown between superstar 3-year-old fillies Swiss Skydiver and Gamine, along with the “Win and You’re In” Iroquois (G3), which will award an automatic starting berth into the TVG Breeders’ Cup Juvenile presented by Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance (G1), and Thursday’s “Win and You’re In” Pocahontas (G3), which will offer an automatic starting berth into the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies (G1).
