  • Fierceness shows how talented he is, as he demolishes the field in the Grade 1 Florida Derby at Gulfstream. He is firmly now a Kentucky Derby contender...

    Looked a lot like the trip Laurel River had in the Dubai WC today - got away from them early around the turn and opened up on them coming into the stretch.

      Get the feeling he might be another Flightline. A horse with a very small race record that wins one "big race" and is retired immediately after for the big bucks at the breeding shed. Never personally understood the hype around Flightline.
      The field in this race was weak and iirc the race was quite slow so Fierceness may be outpaced and out of his depth in the derby.

      @@PootisDaLoopisyou weren’t just getting his on the track performances flightline pedigree was monster. He’s out of Tapit who probably would’ve won the derby if given the chance to run in it and he was the hottest sire at the time. His mom has Indian Charlie who in his own right was a monster of a horse and most of his stock came with speed. Case being, Flightline had much promise no matter where you looked being on the track or his tree.

      @@TechDoneRight1 That is true, but I personally don't think pedigree is everything. Thoroughbreds are getting more and more inbred and nearly all of them are from the Goldolphin lines. Byerly turk is all but gone except for a few Saudi TBs, and I think the Darley lines are practically gone.

  • @capiche7396
    @capiche7396 6 месяцев назад +4

    110 Beyer and he was eased in the stretch. He is very light on his feet. He almost glides across the track. He reminds me of American Pharoah in his running style and how easily he moves. I'n not saying he's the next American Pharoah but he has a very efficient running style. I thought this was a wide open Derby with the post-time favorite going off in the 7-2/4-1 range. I think Fierceness will be more in the 5-2 range when the morning line is set.

  • @thecockerel86
    @thecockerel86 6 месяцев назад +4

    Average early pace allowed the favourite to settle in well and control the race from the front, with enough energy saved up to finish spectacularly. He won't have that luxury in the derby and it will be quite a different test pacewise, especially early on.

      The Florida Derby winner usually takes the Kentucky Derby too. I believe it has to do with "peaking." The colt that wins the Florida Derby is "peaking" at just the right time to also win the Kentucky Derby.

It's not about the times, every track is different with different condistions....that will change the time up, If it's a deep track, it doesn't matter how fast you can move your legs....it's gunna slow you down...if it's weathered, same thing....he could have gone 22/45 on a different track with that performance.
