After having only 1 horse beaten at the end of the first few calls, Vyjack comes storming down the stretch to win handily and remain unbeaten in this year’s 2013 Gotham Stakes. This was a change from his other 3 starts and wins where he was on or near the lead the entire trip.
Siete de Oros finished 2nd and the 8-5 favorite Overanalyze came in 3rd after he couldn’t find another gear in the stretch.
#1 — Vyjack
#2 — Siete de Oros
#3 — Overanalyze
Orb runs down heavy favorite Violence in the stretch to win the 2013 Fountain of Youth Stakes. This moves Orb into the #2 position in the new 2013 Kentucky Derby point standings, one place behind leader Ive Struck A Nerve and one place ahead of Violence.

2011 Coaching Club American Oaks – It’s Tricky
By Michael Lipack for HorseRacingInside.com…
What a difference the day makes. After having a good yesterday at The Spa we, unfortunately, bombed today. Our entry pick of Seaside Retreat and King’s Command had plenty of action but ran 4th and 7th in the NBC televised race #9. The back class of Seaside Retreat and returning to races after three years caught our interest. Miguel Mena did have to check him but he failed to rally in the stretch. King’s Command swung 4-wide in the stretch but finished a well beaten fourth.
Our fifty dollar wage never had a chance.
In the guaranteed Pick-4 we were finished in the first leg. Our $37.50 ticket never got off the ground.
The winning combo was 11/4/5/5 and paid $362.00 for a $0.50 bet.

Last updated May 4, 2011 at BloodHorse by Triple Crown Insider…
| 1 | Dialed In | Has possessed the best Derby profile from Day 1, and love his ability to accelerate and his nose for the wire; There is concern over his cautious handling. |
|---|---|---|
| 2 | Uncle Mo | Champ still likely to be the Derby fave and deserves this ranking as the fastest horse; But one must be concerned about whether or not we’ll see his best. |
| 3 | Mucho Macho Man | Storylines abound with this colt and he’s done little wrong this year; Expect a big effort but question this grinder’s ability to out-kick them all to the wire. |
| 4 | Soldat | High-energy and classy colt loves his job and should rebound Saturday; Becomes even more dangerous if the track comes up wet. |
| 5 | Archarcharch | Handled with an old-school style, blowing out a half-mile 4 days after his bullet five furlongs; Looks great and will be a factor if he can run back to his Ark. Derby. |
| 6 | Nehro | Condition looks good despite a pair of big performances in a 3-wk span; Now must run even better to win in what will be another quick turnaround. |
| 7 | Midnight Interlude | The best is ahead for this colt, and he’s equipped to handle the classics with his big, strong frame and tactical speed; Has caught eyes at Churchill. |
| 8 | Shackleford | Looks like Romans’ 2011 version of Paddy O’Prado, as he has trained as well as anyone locally and appears to be sitting on a big race; Must be rateable for success. |
| 9 | Brilliant Speed | Liked his 5/2 work on dirt, albeit slop, and think he’ll handle the surface when evaluating his female family; Blossoming at the right time and has the look of a live longshot. |
| 10 | Santiva | Honest colt is already a graded winner at CD and had an excuse in the Blue Grass; Wanted to see more out of his training in recent weeks. |
| 11 | Pants On Fire | La. Derby victor has been consistently good since arriving at CD, but the concern is his forward style and whether or not that can hold up Saturday. |
| 12 | Stay Thirsty | Hard to know what you’re going to get with him, but he did look like he was going better than ‘Mo’ in their final work together. |
| 13 | Animal Kingdom | Still not sold he’ll be as effective on dirt, but his 4/30 work was an encouraging move; Certainly a good colt that has accomplished a lot in just 4 starts. |
| 14 | Master of Hounds | Checks a lot of boxes, with the only big question being how he’ll handle the surface; Could be the right year for a Euro to have Derby success. |
| 15 | Decisive Moment | This longshot has quietly compiled a solid resume and had excuses in both the Risen Star (soft tissue injury) & Spiral (on fast pace). |
| 16 | Comma to the Top | Honest and hard-trying gelding earned his opportunity to run; Adds speed to the Derby fray. |
| 17 | Twinspired | Only dirt start was his worst performance to date, but that came while shipping as a 2yo; Bred to handle it and bred to stay, with a fitting name to boot. |
| 18 | Derby Kitten | He’s obviously improved, but it’s hard to imagine him turning in a big performance on dirt to win a race like the Derby off just 2 weeks rest. |
| 19 | Twice the Appeal | Twice the Appeal – Borel aboard a Derby longshot from Sunland, sound familiar? Won’t be the longest shot on the board now. |
| 20 | Watch Me Go | Watch Me Go – Disappointed against a weaker bunch in Ill. Derby, and the Tampa Derby form has not held up; But has physically looked good at Churchill. |
