I always trusted his judgment.” WORTH REPEATING Trainer Larry Jones, about Ramon Dominguez’s riding “It was the culmination of a 3-year-old filly season like no other. If your description of it is, ‘it doesn’t get any better than this,’ you are accurate. If you say, with all common sense, ‘I can’t believe I just witnessed that. That just doesn’t happen,’ you are correct.” Trainer Steve Asmussen, on Rachel Alexandra’s 2009 Woodward victory “I would have liked to have seen him ride Kitten’s Joy. He was a little before Ramon came to prominence. At his peak, he was the best horse I ever had and I would have liked to have seen how he would have gotten along with him. Kitten’s Joy listened to his riders and would have 800-523-8143 loved Ramon.” Trainer Dale Romans, on teaming up with Ramon Dominguez “If that ain’t Saratoga, nothing is.” NAME OF THE DAY Kerry Cauthen on Alfred Nuckols’ colorful jacket, bright green pants and bowtie for Tuesday’s session of the Saratoga sale Irish Fix, fifth race.Isabelle de Tomaso’s 2-year-old filly is by Paddy O’Prado out of Contested Election. “What do you want me to talk about, I’m from Fargo, North Dakota.” The Special’s Annise Montplaisir after being reminded she was again talking about her favorite subject, South American-breds running at Saratoga YOUR SOURCE FOR NY-BREDS “Are we ever not in the weeds?” Phone: (518) 423-2028 www.saratogaglenfarm.com The Special’s Linzay Marks, to the daily “Weeds” comment made by editors on the status of the paper “That’s the last one we’re doing on camera today.” NYRA television host Jason Blewitt, sweating through Thursday’s first-race prattle Building Speed for the Future...

They are confined to a brief period of great excitement in Baltimore, viz, after the riot of April 19, 1861, when Federal troops were attacked by the mob while being marched through the City streets, up to May 13th of that year, when General Butler, with a large body of troops occupied Federal Hill, after which Baltimore was substantially under control of the 1 Some months before his death in 1942 the late Charles McHenry Howard (a grandson of Charles Howard, president of the Board of Police in 1861) placed the papers here printed in the Editor's hands for examination, and offered to write an introduction if the Committee on Publications found them acceptable for the Magazine.

  • Horse Racing That Ultimately Rewards Those Who Seek Any Means, Legal and Otherwise, to Get an Edge
    NEW YORK TIMES November 5, 2009 Barred for Drugs, Horse Trainers Return to Track By JOE DRAPE ARCADIA, Calif. — In 2007, Kentucky racing officials found cobra venom, a powerful painkiller, in the barn of Patrick Biancone, a horse trainer with prestigious victories from Hong Kong to France. He was barred from the sport for a year. Steve Asmussen, the nation’s leading trainer, served a six-month suspension in 2006 after one of his horses failed a drug test in Louisiana, and is appealing another six-month suspension handed down in Texas for another medication viola- tion. Both, however, will saddle horses in the Breeders’ Cup, which begins Friday here at Santa Anita Park and will bring together horses from around the globe to compete in 14 races worth more than $25.5 million in purse money. Biancone and Asmussen are not alone: more than a half-dozen other trainers with multiple and serious drug violations will have contenders in the starting gate of one of thoroughbred racing’s greatest events. In fact, of the top 10 American-based trainers in purse winnings this year, only one, Christophe Clement, has never been cited for a medication violation, according to industry records. “Ten years ago, you were embarrassed to get a medication suspension,” said Clement, whose Gio Ponti will compete in the $5 million Classic. “Now trainers get suspended and go away, and when they come back they get more horses and more owners than they had before they left.” It is part of an evolving culture in horse racing that ultimately rewards those who seek any means, legal and otherwise, to get an edge.
