High Five / Low Five
High Five!
Day Two at the Spa, High Five!
High Five!
Opening day at the Spa. High Five!
Low Five!
Los Alamitos seems to be the common denominator for all the jockey Covid positives at Del Mar. Low Five for Los Al….Get Well fast to all infected and affected…
Low Five!
Luis Saez, Flavien Prat and Victor Espinoza are the latest Covid-19 positives. Maybe we should have our riders staying at their home tracks for now…Fast recoveries to Luis, Flavien, and Victor and all stricken or ill.
High Five!
High Five War of Will. Wins the Preakness on the dirt, sticks around and wins the Makers Mark Mile, a Grade 1 on the grass. That’s nice to see and not all that common. High Five Rushing Falls, a Grade 1 winner at two, three, four and five. You don’t see that every day. How about her trainer Chad Brown, 100 Grade 1’s and counting. High Five Chad!
High Five!
High Five Vekoma, George Weaver and all the connections on a big win in the Met Mile! High Five Mishriff, John Gosden and his connections for a big win in the Prix Jockey Club at Chantilly. High Five Tacitus, finally delivered a big race and ran away with the Suburban.
Low Five!
Old news already with these guys. LOW FIVE NYRA Stewards. News Flash, herding matters. It does affect the outcomes. No DQ on Factorization and Jose Ortiz was a bad Non-Call. The horse under left hand whipping came out not once, but twice. Maybe even three times. That’s a DQ 101. On a positive note hang tough guys, you’re due to get one right soon.
High Five!
High Five Miguel Mena, 2000 career wins and counting. Nice follow up to Tom’s D’ Etat. High Five Love, Ryan Moore, Aidan O’Brien and Michael Tabor. Huge win in the Investec Oaks. She looked like she could have done another lap. High Five Serpentine, E.J. McNamara, Aidan O’Brien and all the connections, a big GATE TO WIRE win in the Investec Derby! A separate High Five to Aidan, takes home the two big trophies.
Low Five!
No reflection on Newspaperofrecord and her nice win Gate to Wire in the Just a Game. The ground was wet however, so a Low Five to all the “experts” claiming she’s back and doesn’t need soft or yielding ground. Question, how do we know that off a wet turf win?
