 Don't mention it to Hard Spun unless you want a kick in the head--but in recent years, the one-mile Southwest Stakes at Oaklawn has helped propel such horses as Smarty Jones, Teuflesberg, and Lawyer Ron on the Kentucky Derby trail. On Monday, February 18, 2008, the Southwest Stakes makes its graded debut at Grade III. The upgrade makes the Southwest Stakes an even more significant prep for Derby contenders to win, as based on the most graded earnings, only twenty Kentucky Derby contenders can make the Kentucky Derby field. This year's contenders may include undefeated Denis of Cork, trained by David Carrol; and 2007 Delta Jackpot winner Turf War, trained by Mark Casse. |

 Could Pyro roast a weenie so hot that even he couldn't eat it? The answer may or may not be revealed this weekend as the run-up to the 134th Kentucky Derby charges on with the Grade III, 8 1/2 furlong, Risen Star Stakes at Fair Grounds. Steve Asmussen, trainer of reigning Horse of the Year Curlin, will hope to advance Pyro on this year's Derby Trail, beginning with the $300,000 Risen Star, Saturday, February 9. The Risen will also be the three-year-old debut of Pyro, who last finished second to War Pass in the 2007 Breeders Cup Juvenile. |

 Thoroughbred mud-wrestling has been cancelled at Santa Anita this Saturday. Despite closing down for consecutive days due to rain soaking the soon-to-be-reworked Cushion Track, the racecourse is open again for The Sunshine Millions, which will also air on ESPN 2 beginning at 5:00 PM Eastern Time. The two-hour event features eight stakes races from California's Santa Anita Park and Florida's Gulfstream Park. Cal-breds and Fla-breds battle it out for stakes ranging from $300,000 in the opening Sunshine Millions Sprint, to the $1 million prize in the main event, the Sunshine Millions Classic. Here are the post times, free PPs, and more. |
