    $400,000 Pat Day Mile Presented by LG&E and KU (Grade III) 95th Running – Saturday, May 4, 2019 (Kentucky Derby Day) 3-Year-Olds at One Mile on Dirt at Churchill Downs Stakes Record – 1:34.18, Competitive Edge (2015) Track Record – 1:33.26, Fruit Ludt (2014) Name Origin: Formerly known as the Derby Trial, the one-mile race for 3-year-olds was moved from Opening Night to Kentucky Derby Day and renamed the Pat Day Mile in 2015 to honor Churchill Downs’ all-time leading jockey Pat Day. Day, enshrined in the National Museum of Racing’s Hall of Fame in 2005, won a record 2,482 races at Churchill Downs, including 156 stakes, from 1980-2005. None was more memorable than his triumph aboard W.C. Partee’s Lil E. Tee in the 1992 Kentucky Derby. He rode in a record 21 consecutive renewals of the Kentucky Derby, a streak that ended when hip surgery forced him to miss the 2005 “Run for the Roses.” Day’s Triple Crown résumé also included five wins in the Preakness Stakes – one short of Eddie Arcaro’s record – and three victories in the Belmont Stakes. His 8,803 career wins rank fourth all-time and his mounts that earned $297,914,839 rank second. During his career Day lead the nation in wins six times (1982-84, ’86, and ’90-91). His most prolific single day came on Sept. 13, 1989, when Day set a North American record by winning eight races from nine mounts at Arlington Park.

Rather the opposite is the case during recessionary times--breeders tend to fall back on the proven commodities, and the unproven sire becomes a more difficult sell. You can particularly see this when, as now, the prices on proven sires have fallen so much.

  • Oscar's 2008 Travers Green Sheet
    OSCAR’S 2008 TRAVERS GREEN SHEET “IT’S A GRADE I STAKE, BUT WHERE’S THE BEEF?” The table is set ($1 million place setting); the venue is outstanding (what could be better than the SPA in summer?). There’s even a top class restaurant nearby (Siro’s is only a sprint distance away), but as for the menu? To quote from the dearly departed octogenarian Sara Peller, “Where’s the beef?” Racing fans are always hungry for a good stake. The Travers usually satisfies our appetite by presenting a selection of the best 3 year-olds in the country. This year, however, the menu contains a lot of Kentucky Derby leftovers. What would have been the prime choices are either passing the race (Big Brown), deceased (Eight Belles) or injured (Denis of Cork). What’s left on the menu is competitive in ability, if somewhat disappointing in talent. There is the Belmont winner Da’Tara, but the Belmont was his only win outside of his maiden score. There are the Derby also rans Pyro, Colonel John, Tale of Ekati, Cool Coal Man and Court Vision; none of whom whet the appetite the way they once did leading up to the Derby, and now more truly represent the Derby’s sponsor Yum Brands – running more like fast food than the Galloping Gourmet! What about some new ingredients to spice up this stake? Tizbig, Mambo in Seattle, Amped, Harlem Rocker, and Tres Borrachos? Actually they are more like salt and pepper than curry powder! Some additional flavoring but hardly Fra Diavolo.

    COMPILED SPECIFICALLY FOR Tempo BROODMARE ANALYSIS REPORT A broodmare’s nicking analysis with up to 50 potential stallions Copyright © 2011 The Jockey Club Information Systems, Inc. BROODMARE ANALYSIS REPORT TrueNicks: An Explanation Nicks in History Compatibilities between stallions from one sire line with mares of another sire line has helped shape the breed since the Eclipse/Herod cross of the late 18th century. These successful crosses, called nicks, have impacted Thoroughbred development through such examples as Hermit/Stockwell, Lexington/Glencoe, Bend Or/Macaroni, and Phalaris/Chaucer. In the modern era, the prolific Mr. Prospector/Northern Dancer cross has produced outstanding racehorses and sires such as Kingmambo, Distorted Humor, and Elusive Quality. Fast-Forward to the 21st Century Computer databases have made it possible to measure and rate nicks, giving rise to a commercial market for such statistics. The first nick ratings offered to the public, though popular, were compromised by incomplete data and yielded results based on hypothetical rather than actual opportunity. This statistical gap was the impetus behind the development of TrueNicks. A Statistically Valid Approach Unlike other ratings that are calculated based on hypothetical opportunity within a limited group of horses, TrueNicks references the international database of The Jockey Club—the world’s most complete record of Thoroughbreds and their performance—to produce a sophisticated rating based on all starters and stakes winners on a given cross. The Statistics The TrueNicks rating is derived from two statistical elements: the Sire Improvement Index (SII) and the Broodmare Sire Improvement Index (BSII). Each figure compares the percentage of progeny stakes winners to starters.
