1990 San Vicente Stakes [01:11]
Chris McCarron was speaking for a lot of people when he yelled to Gary Stevens with about an eighth of a mile to run in the $106075 San Vicente Breeders' Cup Stakes Saturday at Santa Anita. "I guess he's the real thing," McCarron shouted after Mister Frisky had surged past favored Tarascon in the seven-furlong San Vicente. Chris McCarron was speaking for a lot of people when he yelled to Gary Stevens with about an eighth of a mile to run in the $106075 San Vicente Breeders' Cup Stakes Saturday at Santa Anita. "I guess he's the real thing," McCarron shouted after Mister Frisky had surged past favored Tarascon in the seven-furlong San Vicente. The pride of Puerto Rico, 13 for 13 before leaving the island, proved he can compete on the mainland. The first 2-year-old to be named Horse of the Year in Puerto Rico since Bold Forbes, Mister Frisky defeated Tarascon by a length in 1:22 3/5, and it was another eight lengths back to Top Cash. In front every step in almost all of his previous races, Mister Frisky, the Marsayas colt, was fourth after breaking a step slowly. He moved up to join Tarascon, the 13-10 choice, nearing the quarter pole, then took charge and provided Stevens with his fourth winner of the day. "This is a helluva good horse," said trainer Laz Barrera, who didn't do badly after taking over Bold Forbes 14 years earlier. "This sucker can run. "When my friend in Puerto Rico (Enrique Ubarri) told me he's as good as Bold Forbes, I believed him. The day he left Puerto ...

1999 Hollywood Gold Cup Grade I [09:44]
With an eighth of a mile to run in Sunday's $1-million Sempra Energy Hollywood Gold Cup at Hollywood Park, Mike Pegram--the owner of 9-10 favorite Real Quiet--was hardly a fan of jockey Jerry Bailey. "I wasn't a happy camper," said Pegram, questioning the riding tactics of Bailey at that point. With an eighth of a mile to run in Sunday's $1-million Sempra Energy Hollywood Gold Cup at Hollywood Park, Mike Pegram--the owner of 9-10 favorite Real Quiet--was hardly a fan of jockey Jerry Bailey. "I wasn't a happy camper," said Pegram, questioning the riding tactics of Bailey at that point. Proving again that horses can have troubled trips no matter the size of the field--in this instance four horses--Real Quiet lacked room along the inside entering the stretch, then was blocked again while trying to rally. But room finally developed when Bailey, one of the world's best jockeys, moved back to the rail and Real Quiet got up to beat Budroyale, the longest shot at nearly 8-1, by a half-length in 1:59 3/5 for the 1 1/4 miles. This made trainer Bob Baffert a winner with his first starter in the Gold Cup and left Real Quiet, who needed every bit of the 10 furlongs to win for the sixth time in 20 starts, unbeaten in four tries at the distance. The $600000 winner's share pushed his career earnings to $3271803. Of course, it also left Pegram feeling differently about Bailey, who rode Real Quiet--the 1998 Kentucky Derby winner--for the first time Sunday after Gary Stevens decided not to ...

2000 Santa Anita Handicap Grade I [02:07]
career. That Budroyale is such a warrior. He just fights and fights. Any brown I had in my hair is just white now because of him. It's a big thrill for me to win the Big 'Cap." Day said Cat Thief, the 2.20-to-1 second betting choice, had no excuse. "Budroyale went by him and he just didn't insist. He normally plays cat-and-mouse at that point. He didn't do that today," he said. The $600000 winner's purse raised General Challenge's career earnings to $2596920. Six Big 'Cap starters went to ...

2000 San Pasqual Handicap [01:43]
1/2 lengths behind Budroyale and a neck in front of Moore's Flat. Smile Again was fifth, and Puerto Madero (Chi) trailed all the way in an inauspicious comeback. Budroyale, no longer the underdog after a 1999 campaign that was capped by a runner-up finish in the Breeders' Cup Classic (G1), carried highweight of 122 pounds, six more than the winner. "Maybe he doesn't have the speed he once had, and maybe he just got outsprinted," said trainer Ted H. "Teddy" West of Budroyale, the 1.30-to- ...
