Anyone heard of a racehorse called Pine Tar?
358630
Pinetar is the name of the renowned show horse kept by Cordo Carraher of Oxford, Maryland, USA. On March 25, 2006, Pine Tar broke through his electric fence subjecting himself to previously unforseen danger.\n\nEDIT: additional info:\n\nI guess the only thing else I can offer of help would be to contact some of the horse breeders in Alabama by phone to see if they might have heard of him:\nhttp://www.magicyellow.com/category/Horse_Breeders/Cities.html\n\nAlso try posting your question on horse bulletin boards/forums on the internet.\n\nIf you add more information it would be easier as well. If you know what he used to race in, what places he might have finished, the time and dates, last known trainers, anything else you can think of, etc.

Art Success, campaigned by J. R. and T. A. Mobbs and K. D. Wikeley, sealed a winning trifecta for New Zealand breds in the last stride of the 2006 Queensland Turf Club Brisbane Cup (Aus-G1), run over 3,200 meters (15.91 furlongs) at Eagle Farm on Monday. \nFirst run in 1866, the Brisbane Cup closes the Brisbane Winter Carnival and is the last Group 1 event held in Australasia for the 2005-'06 racing season ending on July 31.\n\nSculptor, fourth in the Queensland Derby (Aus-G1) on Saturday, was first out the gates, pursued by Holidazzle, Gorgeous George, Bazelle, and Mahtoum.\n\nHolidazzle quickly took over in a brave attempt to lead all the way, but wilted near the home turn. Gorgeous George, Sculptor, and Pentathon drew away from the pack in the stretch, looking to fight out the finish when Art Success, ridden by Anthony Pattillo, made a bold move. \n\nRacing wide down the outside the four-year-old Pentire gelding joined the leaders in a line of four racing stride for stride. Pentathon was the first to yield, but Art Success, Gorgeous George, and Sculptor refused to give in until, right on the post, Art Success got his head in front for a long neck win. \n\nGorgeous George was second, with Sculptor third by a long neck. Time was 3.22.45 on a track rated dead.\n\nTrainer John Collins said that Art Success gave him no cause for anxiety leading up to the race.\n\n"He had a trouble free preparation, hasn't put a foot wrong," Collins said. "I'm delighted with him."\n\nPattillo was almost incoherent with emotion, thanking the owners for sticking with him in such an important race, and giving him the chance to win his first Group 1 race.\n\nArt Success, out of the Zabeel mare Zabelette, has won six of 19 career starts, including the Chairman's Handicap (Aus-G3) on May 13.—Delamere Usher\n\nAUD$500,000

Whoa, Im confused reading your question. What does this have to do with horse racing?

The superfecta paid a North American record last year, but that bet needs substantial capital and multiple combinations.  I would prefer the daily double-pick a few horses you like in the rece immediately preceding the KD and wheel with Sweetnorthernsaint, Point Determined, AP Warrior, Brother Derek.  With a full field of 20 in the Derby should get some juicy payoffs

Yes, macarthur, there is a logical reason to bet on certain horses in this race. I threw out several with one quick glance at the pp's. The reason? Because these throw outs will be dang tired when they get to 10 furlongs. And the Belmont Stakes is 12 furlongs.\n\nWho will stop first? High Finance.\n\nWho will make the distance with energy to spare? I see four. Oh So Awesome, Jazil, Steppenwolfer, and Bluegrass Cat. I've been looking forward to seeing Steppenwolfer run in this race, but Oh So Awesome has grabbed my attention. I rate him as just as good as Steppenwolfer, and even though he's a turf runner from overseas he does have one race under his belt on the Belmont track (last race, in the slop, 8 1/2 furlongs, 3rd place, Jockey was Mike Smith, and comment line is "Good finish inside."). His morning line is 20-1, he has Mike Smith (who won the Derby with Giacomo last year), and it's suppose to rain at Belmont tomorrow.\n\nDoesn't Oh So Awesome sound like the best value bet? My predicted order of finish is Oh So Awesome, Steppenwolfer, Bluegrass Cat, and Jazil.

Arguable, Arkle was awesome-\nbut most people would probably name Red Rum,\nfor all those Grand National wins.\n\nHEY- The first link below says\n"Arkle has seen off Desert Orchid and Red Rum to top a poll of the all-time favourite racehorses in Britain and Ireland."

Brother Derek is the likely favorite. His odds will probably be in the 3 to 1 range. Those odds would pay $8 on a $2 bet to win. The best value bet to win the race is Steppenwolfer who will probably have odds in the 20 to 1 range. Those odds would pay $42 on a $2 win bet. I'm a handicapper... e-mail me next Wednesday and I'll send you what I will be betting on in the Derby. No charge. No guarantee, either.\nYes, I had a bet on last year's winner Giacomo, although I wish I had bet more. I did not have enough confidence in him. At least I broke even.\n\n\nEdit:  Barbaro has not raced in five WEEKS, not months. This is what the trainer planned, although it is a bit unusual. And Sweetnorthernsaint has NOT been scratched (as of April 30). Verified on www.drf.com

Posted: 6/10/2006 9:14:18 PM\n\nBelmont aftermath: How the runners-up fared\n\n\nFollowing are comments from the trainers and jockeys of the 11 horses who finished behind Jazil in the 138th Belmont Stakes (G1) on Saturday at Belmont Race Course.\n\nBluegrass Cat, second; Sunriver, third\n\nTodd Pletcher, trainer: "We had a rough trip with Bluegrass Cat. He lost a lot of ground on the first turn. He never stopped trying. Sunriver had a good trip. He dug in and tried hard. He ran a big race. Fractions were about where I thought they would be. I know sometimes, the strategy on the first turn is to stay out in the middle of the track, but basically, every race has been won on the rail all day. So, it was kind of a strange tactic. If it were anyone besides me, I was rooting for Kiaran [like Pletcher, a former assistant to Hall of Fame trainer D. Wayne Lukas]. He is one of my best friends, a great person, and I am very, very happy for him. I'm disappointed. There is no consolation in second for me."\n\nJohn Velazquez, jockey of Bluegrass Cat: "This race just goes to show you that it doesn't matter how old you are, if you have the horse and the patience, you can win. It cost me so much going so wide around the first turn. I was right on the other horse's heels, where I couldn't get him inside. I had two horses to think about – Jazil and Steppenwolfer. On the second turn, I dropped in and thought that when the other horses started coming to me, I would go. Jazil came to me much quicker than I thought he would. I was at the three-eighths pole and he was head and head with me. I got after him little by little. He fought the whole way and ran a huge race. "\n\nRafael Bejarano, jockey of Sunriver: "My horse broke good. I put him in good position early and he was comfortable. When I asked my horse, he ran really well, but Jazil had a lot of horse. The pace was okay. I was right behind the leaders. My horse fought hard. I was happy with his effort."\n\n \n\nSteppenwolfer, fourth\n\nDan Peitz, trainer Steppenwolfer: "I'm disappointed and that's all I can tell you. He didn't run the race I expected. When we turned down the backside, we were right where I thought we would be. By the time we got to the half-mile pole, I didn't think we had a horse beat. I didn't understand that at all. He (jockey Robby Albarado) said he had horses in front of him." \n\nRobby Albarado, jockey: "I really liked my horse coming in, especially the way he had been training. He put in his patented run in there, it just wasn't good enough today. Jazil got there a little earlier than expected, since everyone thought he would be flying late. That was the only surprise – how quickly he got up there. I was about where I figured I would be, but they just sprinted out away from me."       \n\n \n\nOh So Awesome, fifth\n\nJimmy Jerkens, trainer: "I don't know what happened to him. He never showed any sign before of breaking through the gate like that."\n\n \n\nHemingway's Key, sixth\n\nNick Zito, trainer Hemingway's Key: "He was following the winner. He had just a little bit of difficulty there. He was moving with the winner. That would have been sweet. He ran sixth. He's a cool horse."\n\nJeremy Rose, jockey: "I was having a good trip. I got stopped a little on the turn. Before that, he was right there with the winner." \n\n \n\nPlatinum Couple, seventh\n\nJose Espinoza, jockey: "He broke really good. We had beautiful position. He made a huge move from the three-eighths pole to the eighth pole, and then he got tired. The winner was much the best and he obviously liked the distance."\n\n \n\nBob and John, eighth\n\nBob Baffert, trainer: "I thought my best chance was to steal the race. I didn't think anyone would want the lead. But that didn't work out. No one was going to let me do that. I told Garrett (Gomez) to le

I just love Derby trivia. Ok the first was Regret in 1915, then Genuine Risk in 1980, and finally Winning Colors in 1988. I worked on the farm where Colors is now a broodmare, and just so you know she is one of the hatefullest mares to ever live. This is common opinion by the way. Just an interesting tidbit about her, she was in foal to Unbridled in 2001, the foal would have been the first to have Derby winners as both dam and sire, but unfortunately she aborted due to MRLS and as yet she has not been bred to another of the Derby winners standing stud.
