1989 Alabama Stakes [03:38]
For those hard-to-please critics who had been complaining that Open Mind is a brilliant horse with a bland style, the 3-year-old filly responded with a gritty performance on a rainy day at Saratoga. At the top of the stretch of the $232400 Alabama Stakes, Open Mind's chances appeared to be as gloomy as the day itself. She was ahead of only one horse, stablemate Lea Lucinda. She trailed the front-running Dearly Loved by more than five lengths and was running in the middle of the track, where the muddy surface had the consistency of butterscotch pudding. Open Mind had gone into Saturday's 109th Alabama with a nine-race winning streak dating to last November, but now, at 1-5 odds, she looked hopelessly beaten. Her critics were ready to add Open Mind's name to the list of fallen Saratoga favorites, which includes Man o' War, Gallant Fox and Secretariat. Before a crowd of 30309, Open Mind chose not to become a part of that gallery. "Of all the fillies I've ridden," Angel Cordero would say later, "I've never been on one who tries as hard as this filly. If she were a person, she'd want to work seven days a week." Cordero went to his whip 16 times--seven times from the right and nine from the left--and it took that 16th whack to get owner Gene Klein's filly to the wire, a neck before Dearly Loved. Open Mind might win 10 more races in a row, if she is allowed to stay on the track long enough, but no victory will come any harder than Saturday's. Jean Cruguet was aboard Dearly Loved ...

Sea Butterfly - 17/08/2012 - Yellow Cap (green/black stripe) Race 2 - num 1 [01:33]
SINGAPORE RACE 17/08/2012 RACE 2: RESTRICTED MAIDEN (2&3YO) (WFA) (2) - 1200M (POLYTRACK) After clocking a winner trial with 1.75L winning and timed at 1.01.13. on 24 Jul 2012 KRANJI R3 B (Barrier Trial) 1000m G. This horse has looked like a better sort and improved. The current company not too strong and will soon register a easy win on 1100 poly to 1200m poly. This horse look smart and keen in this recent 3rd in the video... based on the run and the odds of 100++ , the jockey did not go all out. If recent races odds fall below $50 (10 decimal) will be on full cylinder firing. Not a class 5 material and will advance pretty soon. Watch closely.

It Doesn't Get Much Better Than This [03:03]
End of another year in SOHSET. Congratulations to all the state qualifiers. I tried to include as many events and as many schools as I could. Stuck myself int he bareback games as a filler because I didn't have video of anyone else bareback! Dangit, next year for sure I'll get some good shots. If you see a partial of your run/event, I most likely have the full pattern/run on my laptop. You can send me a message. Some things I just got snippets of. I might also have some not featured here, you can send me a message with your school, number, event, and description of the horse and I'll do a search through my files for you.
