American Pharoah’s Worth $50 Million
It was a show-stopping race for American Pharoah. He looked as is he was floating and his bloodlines tell the story. His father, Pioneer of the Nile, was 2nd in the 2009 Kentucky Derby and his granddaddy, Empire Maker (who we had in that race!), won the 2003 Belmont Stakes. “The sire line is very stamina oriented, but the female line of descent — the dam, the second dam, the third dam — they’ve all been very speed oriented horses,” says Sid Fernando, … [Read more...]

NBA at the Break: A Look Back at the First Half and Things Yet to Come
With the All-Star Break now in the rear-view mirror, the NBA now begins it's two-month sprint to the finish line, as the Playoff Picture becomes more and more clear.
