  1. Maryland business helps top jockeys see their way clear

    Not a lot has changed in the jockey goggle business since 1947, when Israel Kroop first stitched trim around a molded sheet of plastic, added two brass vents from a mattress, and attached a strip of elastic.

  2. Union Rags tracks down Paynter in final stretch to win Belmont Stakes

    <strong>Elmont, NY</strong> &ndash; Paynter stayed where he was, a few feet off the rail, charging toward the finish.
    Elmont, NY – Paynter stayed where he was, a few feet off the rail, charging toward the finish. Everyone whose heart had been broken by Union Rags before must have had the same thought: he's not going to squeeze through. But then, delivering upon...

  3. Graham Motion says Velazquez right choice for Union Rags; Animal Kingdom improving

    Really, the frustration began at last year&rsquo;s Belmont.
    Really, the frustration began at last year’s Belmont. That’s when Animal Kingdom, Graham Motion’s finest horse to date, was cut off and, while veering away, clipped heels and almost tossed his jockey. It took a thunderous run at the end...

  4. What they're saying about I'll Have Another's scratch at Belmont

    You heard some derivative of the phrase over and over yesterday:
    You heard some derivative of the phrase over and over yesterday: "I've been around horse racing a long time, and I've never seen something like this." Or: "In all my years covering sports, I haven't had many days like this." And, so, here are some...

  5. Five years later: Barbaro's death remembered

    Alex Brown knows just where he was in 1977, when he learned of Elvis' demise. And in 1997, when he heard that Princess Diana had died. And on Jan. 29, 2007 &#8212; five years ago Sunday &#8212; when he got the news that, after a game fight for life, a champion racehorse named Barbaro had passed away.

  6. Questions persist for Derby contender Union Rags, and for his handlers

    Michael Matz and his assistants are tired of the question &mdash; most trainers and riders are by this point in the week before the country's most talked-about horse race &mdash; and give mostly a perfunctory answer.

  7. Kentucky Derby picks: Keep your eye on late-charging Dullahan

    The computer program came up with Hansen, and he certainly has a shot. However, Hansen's last prep race was very telling, and not in ways that suggest he can win. Many observers felt his Breeders' Cup Juvenile victory last fall demonstrated some distance limitations, and those concerns seem to have been validated in the Blue Grass Stakes, where he gave up the lead in the stretch. Additionally, his owner suggested that he would not go to the lead in the Blue Grass, but he surged to the lead and carved out fairly solid fractions. If he can rate, he is talented enough to have a shot, but there is little to suggest he can or will rate.

  8. Going to the barns on the day after Derby brings up one question: what if?

    What&rsquo;s left after all the bourbon is poured and money bet, after the hats are soaked through with the sweat of those elated by a validated hunch or devastated by&nbsp; a sure thing who wouldn&rsquo;t go, after tension built over years and years is furiously unraveled by 100-pound jockeys riding 1,200-pound horses, after the track has been swept clean of the history-making hooves, is this:

  12. Rick Dutrow brings Zetterholm to Preakness under cloud of suspicion

    Rick Dutrow knows there's a difference coming into Preakness with a horse that has won the Kentucky Derby and one that didn't even make it to the starting gate at Churchill Downs.
