  • Funny Cide's Epic Kentucky Derby Victory Is Ten Years
    Funny Cide’s Epic Kentucky Derby Victory is Ten Years Old By Bill Heller Can it be ten years since a three-year-old gelding named Funny Cide, and a yellow school bus carrying a group of high school friends who owned him, rearranged the racing industry’s position on New York- breds? “I don’t believe it,” his retired Hall of Fame jockey Jose Santos said Tuesday. “It went by too fast.” Funny Cide’s trainer, Barclay Tagg, agreed: “I do have trouble believing that.” Asked what’s the first thing that comes to his mind when someone asks him about Funny Cide, Jose said, “That he was the best three-year-old in my racing career.” These days, Jose has a new career running a feed company, Instride International, which began operating in 2012 and now serves three Florida tracks: Calder, Gulfstream Park and Palm Meadows. “Basically, I’m running the whole thing,” Jose said. “I’ve been selling to the trainers. They are friends of mine.” His client list includes a bunch of New York trainers who winter in Florida, including Todd Pletcher, John Kimmel, Linda Rice, Rick Violette and John Terranova. Funny Cide, a son of Distorted Humor out of Belle’s Good Cide by Slewacide, was bred by WinStar Farm and foaled at Joe and Anne McMahon’s Thoroughbred farm just outside Saratoga Springs. He was originally purchased for $22,000 before Tagg bought him for $75,000 for Sackatoga Stable, an entity formed when several old friends got together for a Memorial Day barbecue in their home town of Sackets Harbor.

When racing does resume, it is expected to be at Belmont Park, which is currently scheduled to open Apr. 24. New York Governor Andrew Cuomo raised the possibility of making Aqueduct a temporary hospital at his press briefing Friday, and said he would seek the required permission from the federal government to serve the borough of Queens with a 1,000-plus patient overflow facility at the track. Cuomo has set a goal for New York State to provide COVID-19 patient overflow facilities in each New York City borough as well as Westchester, Rockland, Nassau and Suffolk counties.

  • The Animal Kingdom Story
    June 7, 2013 THE ANIMAL KINGDOM STORY ‘READS LIKE A HOLLYWOOD SCRIPT’ AMERICA’S BEST RACING CATCHES UP WITH STAR BEFORE HIS SWAN SONG HOME-BRED HAS MADE THE MOST OF RARE SECOND AND THIRD CHANCES From America’s Best Racing comes the following: Catching Up With Animal Kingdom The story of Animal Kingdom reads like a Hollywood script, but even then it would be hard to believe. The colt entered the Kentucky Derby after a win in the Spiral Stakes, a race run over an all-weather surface. In fact, the Kentucky Derby was his first race on dirt. Trainer Graham Motion and owner Team Valor International were coming in to the race looking to make history if they won with a horse that, it’s safe to say, wasn’t taking a conventional path to the Derby. But Animal Kingdom laughed in the face of Derby convention. He pounced on the leaders late in the race and bounded away to win by 2 ¾ lengths. The Derby win was the first for all of the horse's connections with jockey John Velazquez getting his first win in the race after picking up the mount the day before. “I like to try to make history if I can, and we made a lot of history today,” said Barry Irwin, Team Valor’s co-founder and CEO. “This Animal Kingdom schmoozing with Katherine (left) and Cindy Dillon at Palm Meadows. is the first horse that came to win this race with only four previous races since Exterminator in 1918, the first horse to win after a six‑week layoff since Needles in 1956, so that means a lot to me.“ Animal Kingdom headed to Pimlico with bettors giving him more credit in the second leg of the series.
