[KirisClown]

When I click on properties it says Yappie winning the San Vincente ... but it sure the hell isn't that race ... as he was never clear on the lead at any point in a desperate win.... oh yeah .. and that isn't Santa Anita.

Looks like the '94 NYRA Mile.

Cigar winning. Devil His Due the black horse in the shadow roll in 2nd and Punch Line the gray horse on the outside in the white cap. Not really sure after that.

3 for 3 so far.. good call with Punch Line..

Yeah, I named it Yappy for anyone that would do the right click... Yappy ended up being sold to Robert Perez later in his career with a few other slobs Paulson couldnt be bothered with anymore..

Robert Perez owned the horse in the far right of the picture.. he ran last in that years Belmont Stakes..

[Holland Hacker]

As soon as I saw the photo I knew it was Cigar winning the NYRA Mile. Here is my guess:

Cigar
Devil His Due
Punch Line
Storm Tower
Harlin
Key Contender
American Chance
Bertrando
Itaka
Brunswick

And yes I did have to watch the race and google it but I couldn't find the chart for the race.

By the way this is a cool idea. I'll have to look through some of my photos and see I can come up with a photo for a trivia questions.

[The Indomitable DrugS]

Strut the Stage in the Sam Son colors and Del Mar Show in the Paulson colors.

That was pretty devious of you man. Of course, had I studied the pic a little I'd have noticed Robby Albarado on the SSF horse. I don't think he rode Sky Colony.

I can't make out the track, silks or jockeys at all

[KirisClown]

It's Saratoga... 1990s

[Holland Hacker]

I'm thinking the track is Saratoga.

I think the horse on the inside is a Claiborne Runner perhaps Forty Niner winning the Sanford Stakes.

I do not know who finished second.

[KirisClown]

You have the owner of the inside horse right...

It's not Forty Niner though...

[The Indomitable DrugS]

Boundary and Cherokee Run on his outside.

The sires of Big Brown and War Pass.

[Danzig]

who is that behind boundary with the shadow roll?

[The Indomitable DrugS]

who is that behind boundary with the shadow roll?

Either Dalhart or I Can't Believe.

If it's Loblolly colors he's wearing the former - if not - it's the latter. I can't tell with the black and white.

[KirisClown]

who is that behind boundary with the shadow roll?

I think it's Boom Towner...

[The Indomitable DrugS]

he would have Barry Schwartz's silks in that case.

Boom Towner actually won his debut in a 5K MCL at Rockingham Park. I can't think of many better horses from the 90's who debuted for a nickle.

Too bad that picture wasn't snapped a few feet later, I'd have been in the picture. That was '02, I remember that race well.

Del Mar Show trivia... name the BC Winner he defeated and the two graded races he won at now-defunct (at least for thoroughbred) tracks.

[The Indomitable DrugS]

He beat Volponi on the Saratoga turf. His two graded stake wins at now defunct tracks would be HIA and Rockingham.

Visionaire & Texas Wildcatter from last year's Gotham?


No, good guess though.. this photo is a bit older..

Here's a couple hints, it's from 2000... The inside runner was a very fast horse who set a Belmont track record as a 2yr old in his maiden race...

[pgiaco]

Kelly Kip on the inside? Outside horse is I think a Mitch Friedman former claimer who I can't for the life of me remember the name.:mad:

It's a two word name...

[Danzig]

bandini and high limit in the bluegrass?

[pgiaco]

Honour and Glory and Saarland

[Danzig]

Honour and Glory and Saarland


i thought those were cynthia phipps' silks! but i really thought it was bandini...but bandini was trained by pletcher-and that's not a white bridle! lol

[pgiaco]

I think one of them is wrong. I don't think that Honour and Glory and Saarland ever met. I should probably think before I type. The Tabor horse might be Mayakovsky in the Gotham.

[Holland Hacker]

I think I agree with Dr. G. that it is Mayakoyvsky defeating Sarrland in the 2002 Gotham at The Big A.

[KirisClown]

[KirisClown]

Last one for today...


http://img150.imageshack.us/img150/6946/instantfriendship.jpg

[The Indomitable DrugS]

There's no V on the back of the silks so it can't be her.

I actually thought those might have been Prestonwood colors (Da Hoss, Victory Gallop etc) when I first looked at the pic .. but the Prestenwood cap is green not red.

I know I've seen those colors a ton before but I can't put them with an owner for some reason.

[Hickory Hill Hoff]

Paradise Creek winning at the Spa?

It's at Saratoga.. but it's not Paradise Creek..

Cuvee with the rider for sure.

I can't remember who lost the rider in that race.

[Danzig]

i remember watching that race, but can't remember who did the dumping either!

[The Indomitable DrugS]

I got it wrong. I didn't remember any loose horse the year Cuvee won it - but he was always braided like that.

It's Private Vow (another Asmussen runaway winner of the Futurity) Asmussen braids a lot of horses up like that.

The loose horse was some Serpe longshot I think.

disco's son

[AeWingnut]

disco's son

Bailey's main concern aboard the odds-on favorite was outsider Disco's Son, who was running loose without a rider after dropping Javier Castellano following the start. Disco's Son behaved himself while galloping with Private Vow down the lane and the 2-year-old son of Broken Vow won while easing up as they approached the wire. The final time for the seven-furlong event was 1:24 on a fast track.

Obviously it is a Melnyk horse with Johnny V up. I do not know who it is but I'm thinking its a filly. I almost want to say Mery Vale or marmony Lodge but I don't think so. I could cheat and look at my American Racing Manuals, but that would be cheating.

You're right on Smith.. and around the right timeframe.. it's from 1994..
Take Me Out was a Firestone horse and that doesn't look like their colors. Who it actually is, I have no clue.

[free25]

could it be cheorkee run??? or Ajina for paulson???

Decent guesses.. but it's not Cherokee Run or Ajina...

[KirisClown]

Oh What A Windfall?

Not a bad guess.. but it's not her.

Oh What A Windfall was the sister of Heavenly Prize...the horse above is the half sister of another extremely good Phipps female...

[The Indomitable DrugS]

Educated Risk?

[KirisClown]

Educated Risk?

That's her... they retired her just as she reached her peak in early 95, I think she had won 5 or 6 stakes in a row.. if not for Inside Information and Heavenly Prize, she would have had a big year for herself..

[The Indomitable DrugS]

No doubt ... she won her last five career races all in hand, at the Graded Stakes level, and with Beyers of 114, 108, 112, 112, and 105.

Those blinks on the 6 are unreal..How the hell can he/she see?

called a pacifier I think.. They looks pretty cool. I think of them as a equine equivalent of those stupid Kanye West sunglasses

[Sightseek]

The other chestnut is Pavo.

[RolloTomasi]

Timber Country, 94 Champagne. Sierra Diabolo was 2nd.

Was On Target favored?

[KirisClown]

Yup, It's Timber Country and Sierra Diablo.. very good..

Not a bad guess with On Target.. but he was second choice.. the favorite was based on the east coast...

[Gauchos0522]

Was it Montreal Red? I know he won the Sanford and the Saratoga Special in 94, and maybe the Futurity or Hopeful as well can't quite remember.

Say Florida Sandy?

[KirisClown]

Yup, very good..

[RolloTomasi]

The combination of pink silks and the white shadow roll were the only things to go on (aside from the track appearing to be Aqueduct) for me. Didn't really follow him.

[KirisClown]

Name both...

High Yield. I had to go and look at the chart and found the picture as well.

Yup, High Yield with Pat Day...

I took it when he was a "bloodstock agent" so he had no rights!

Chief's Crown, Gate Dancer (Hard to miss with hood) and Vanlandingham.

It's not really fair if I name them....;)

[RolloTomasi]

Cherokee Run between horses. Perhaps Say Florida Sandy on the rail, although those look like Giles Brophy's silks. An Overbrook horse on the outside.

You took it? I had a bunch saved in a folder, I think from Flickr..

Nice work as usual.

Correct on Cherokee Run, Say Florida Sandy was born the year the photo was taken.. The Giles Brophy horse on the rail was a NY bred. The outside Overbrook runner sired Menifee among others..

Harlan is the Overbrook colt. I think the only time I saw a race of his was the BC Sprint. I thought he was a lighter color.

Ii can't recall the Brophy horse, but there appears to be a Robert Perez horse taking its usual position among the back markers. Cherokee Run was second in the Preakness to Prairie Bayou and coming in third, edging out Derby winner Sea Hero was the Panamania wonder horse...El Bakan.

Yeah, that's Harlan..

The Brophy horse will probably only be familiar to people who watched a lot of NY racing back in 93,94,95.. He won the Empire Classic in one of those years..

That Perez is Kyoko, a former Paulson runner... Perez used to purchase a lot of horses from Paulson.. the following year they came back with Yappy in the same race.

Birdonthewire was the favorite.

The winner is.......Itaka?

[KirisClown]

Yup, thats Itaka with Pat Valenzuela.. taken on Super Saturday 1994..

Virginia Rapids was the favorite.. Birdonthewire had fallen on some hard times in 94 and hadn't regained the same form from the previous year..

A really nice son of Foolish Pleasure. :) Do you have any others from that day? It's probably the best day Ive ever spent at a racetrack.

I will send them to you full size. Lots of good stuff.

You don't happen to have broadcasts of the 1976 Triple Crown or know where I coul gt that?

That would be really great.. thanks a lot.

Unfortunately I don't have anything from the 76 Triple Crown right now.. it's difficult to come across stuff that far back. Sometimes old broadcasts will pop up on ESPN Classic.

If I ever come into possession of it I will post it..
