Barbaro pre kobnog starta "Preakness Stakes"
29.01.2007
Barbaro, borac velikog srca, uspavan je danas nakon naglog pogoršanja. Dr.Dean Richardson je sa svojim timom pokušao sve ali najgore se nije moglo sprečiti. Pobednik derbija, neporažen do poslednjeg fatalnog starta, napokon je našao nadamo se toliko priželjkivani mir. :: Barbaro
Roy Jackson, vlasnik Barbara:
" We just reached a point where it was going to be difficult for him to go on without pain. It was the right decision, it was the right thing to do. We said all along if there was a situation where it would become more difficult for him then it would be time. "

Invasor forever
Invasor, "Breeders' Cup Classic" i "Dubai World Cup" pobednik, završio je trkačku karijeru usled frakture sezamodine kosti zadnje desne noge. Povreda je ustanovljena nakon brzog rada u petak, tokom priprema za "Suburban Handicap" 30.juna. Impresivne pobede, brzina više od svakog protivnika. Izgledalo da mu nko ne može izaći na crtu. Od 2008 će započeti sezonu pripusta na Shadwell Farm. Velika šteta za galopski sport.

"He changed my life and enriched my family's life. It was just a pleasure and an honor to train him. He's obviously the best horse I'll ever train and it was just a great feeling to go to the barn every morning and see him." (Kiaran McLaughlin, trener)

Lanfranco Dettori je načinio podvig dobivši engleski i francuski derbi iste godine, čak istog vikenda. U tome su do sada uspeli Lester Piggot (1972), Willie Carson (1980) i Pat Eddery (1990). Dettori se našao u selu pobednika, jer je regularni jahač Lawman-a, Olivier Peslier morao po ugovoru da jaše No Dream.
"I don't feel anything anymore. I don't know how to express my feelings anymore. I am over the moon." (Lanfranco Dettori, Lawman)
"I have lost my head completely. Dettori is magnificent and I was, of course, hoping he would do it. It is a victory for all the team and for Frankie to have doubled this weekend has seen him pass into the history books." (Claudio Marzocco, vlasnik, Lawman)

John Henry - 32.rođendan
" John Henry is the American story. Nobody wanted him. He was an ugly little horse. He didn't come from racing royalty. He didn't come from a heritage barn. The mention of his name didn't open of opportunity for success and privilege, but he went up to those doors and knocked them down."

John Henry
- won't trick me -
Preračunato u ekvivalent ljudskog roda, John Henry danas puni 96 godina. I dalje je onaj pravi, stari, mušičavi JH. Čak i na fotografiji koju vidite uočljiv je njegov namćorasti duh; odbio je da pozira Sue, koja nam je i poslala ovu fotografiju. Zato je njegov prvi komšija Cigar bio ljubazan da stane pred objektiv, uz izvinjenje za ponašanje svog suseda. Živ nam i namćorast bio JH!
