Poolside With Slim

Sent off at just over even money to stretch her current winning streak to three, Kehoe Beach (Omaha Beach) was allowed a very soft time of things on the front end in a race which appeared to have plenty of speed on paper and made every pole a winning one in Friday's GII Mrs. Revere Stakes at Churchill Downs. Having won allowance races at Kentucky Downs--over seven furlongs in September--and going a mile at Keeneland last month by a combined 13 1/2 lengths in her two most recent trips to...

Trainer Brad Cox sends out the top two chances on the morning line for Friday's GII Clark Stakes at Churchill Downs, and those who support the duo from a pari-mutuel perspective will be looking for some positive cashflow to get a head start on their holiday shopping.

The George 'Rusty' Arnold-trained import Poolside With Slim ran out a gritty winner of the $150,000 contest under Frankie Dettori at Penn National last week leaving Bromagen convinced that there are more fat cheques to be cashed with the progressive three-year-old.

Rigney Racing homebred Buchu (f, 3, Justify--Flowering Peach {Ire}, by Galileo {Ire}), winner of the GII Jessamine S. over this course last year at two, made her 3-year-old debut a winning one and kept her Keeneland record perfect with a late-closing score in the $400,000 GII Appalachian S. Saturday. California shipper Mo Fox Givin (Mo Town) and last-out GIII Florida Oaks third Dancing N Dixie (Neolithic) chased her home in second and third, respectively. Buchu broke smoothly from the nine hole and quickly settled into a midpack spot on the...
