Bluff WIN 12.26.12 FairGrounds [05:18]
The Bluff Man WON the 8th race at Fair Grounds on December 26th! What a nice Christmas present. Al pretty much called it. He entered Bluff MTO thinking that the race would come off the turf and it did. He thought the distance would not be a factor against this group many horses trying the turf as a last resort and it wasn't. He said the 2 week layoff would probably be just right as it would take the edge of and it did! The outside post actually did us a favor because Jumpin Jack Flash had to settle in behind the leaders and relax in third, then second going down the back stretch. Bluff was on the bit the whole way down the backside tugging the jock all the way to the head of the lane. When the time was right he launched his offensive and never looked back. Congratulations to all on our 2nd Victory at the 2nd best track in the US of A!

1994 Mother Goose Stakes - Lakeway [06:10]
Belmont Week came to a record-setting close yesterday when the California filly Lakeway won the Mother Goose Stakes by more than four lengths over Cinnamon Sugar and by 10 lengths over Inside Information, and pranced to the head of the class of 3-year-old fillies. It was one day after the California colt Tabasco Cat won the Belmont Stakes and moved to the head of the class of 3-year-old colts, and Lakeway gave an even more powerful performance. She not only won for the fifth time in six starts but buried the hometown favorite, Inside Information, who had won six of her seven races. And she did it by knocking one and one-fifth seconds off the record for the race in its 38th running. The two favorites ran together stride for stride for more than half a mile, but then Kent Desormeaux nudged his filly, and Lakeway took charge. She collared Inside Information with three-eighths of a mile to go, edged past her turning for home and widened the lead relentlessly down the stretch. As she flashed home, she had 4 1/4 lengths on Cinnamon Sugar, a 27-1 long shot, who in turn had six lengths on Inside Information. They cruised in fast fractions of 1:083/5 for three-quarters of a mile and 1:332/5 for the mile. And Lakeway completed the mile and an eighth in 1:462/5 , shattering the record for the race set in 1978 by Caesar's Wish, but still a full second off the track record for the distance set in 1973 by the incomparable Secretariat. It was also the fifth record set in three days of ...
