By Warren Eves Monzon has gotten no respect in early Kentucky Derby ratings. He’ll gain deserving recognition Saturday when he wins the 1-1/16th Sam F. Davis at Tampa Bay Downs. Unbeaten Brethren will be the favorite for Todd Pletcher under Ramon Dominguez. [...]

By Warren Eves Odds are pretty good Bob Baffert will have a say in this year’s Kentucky Derby. Nobody knows how good The Factor is. He’s going to stretch out February 20th at Santa Anita in the seven-furlong San Vicente. He won opening day in sparkling fashion by 8-1/4 [...]

By Harry “The Hat” Hacek (Part One of Two) This commentary will be uncomfortable to a handful of greedy, self-serving and/or incompetent(corrupt?) individuals. All of them play a major role in the destruction of California horse racing. The people I feel most sorry [...]
