Down the Stretch for February 12, 2024

This week we have the Sam F Davis Stakes from Tampa Bay, James MacDonald with another great night at Mohawk and a thoughtful little video posted by Woodbine for Black History Month. Trainer Barbara Anderson-Heads talks about her terrific mare, Infinite Patience and wonders why her 19 for 25 record might not be good enough for a Sovereign Award. Keith McCalmont of NYRA explains why the Belmont Stakes will be run at Saratoga this June. Jockey Katie Davis tells us how thrilled she is to be repping the U.S.A. in the International Jockeys Challenge in Saudi Arabia and we have a race from Yonkers that had two horses with nearly identical names and it reminded us of the funniest all-time race call.
