Kennedy's Corridor: Win And You're No More Likely To Be In
http://kennedyscorridor.blogspot.com/2009/10/win-and-youre-no-more-likely-to-be-in.html
Wednesday, October 21, 2009. Win And You're No More Likely To Be In. Earned a guaranteed spot in the Filly and Mare Turf through her E.P. Taylor victory, Channon. Expressed skepticism about the Breeders' Cup Win and You're In program, noting the prohibitive fees for horses not nominated to the Cup. In that sense," he said, "Win and You're In is a bit misleading.". The excerpt above was taken from the Daily Racing Form and I think Mick Channon. Has just voiced the sentiment of many people in racing. If sh...

Kennedy's Corridor: Breeders' Cup Top 5
http://kennedyscorridor.blogspot.com/2009/10/breeders-cup-top-5_16.html
Friday, October 16, 2009. Breeders' Cup Top 5. 2 Music Note (3). 3 Careless Jewel (4). 5 Icon Project (1). It has become rather popular to go against Zenyatta. I did believe in Icon Project. But her latest fitness issues put her firmly on the fence. She realistically may not even make the race. Has the ideal running style for a possible upset of Zenyatta. To the list not because I thought she ran a better race than Proviso but because I think she has a better chance of repeating that performance than Pro...

Kennedy's Corridor: The End Of The Hall
http://kennedyscorridor.blogspot.com/2009/10/end-of-hall.html
Friday, October 23, 2009. The End Of The Hall. So why am I choosing to end things now right before the biggest day of the year? Basically I have decided that I no longer want a space dedicated to my opinion. In the beginning, despite the illusion of humility, I think I really wanted a chance to make a name for myself. I wanted to share ideas I had like the Thoroughbred Championship Rankings and the 20/20 systems. Things that were a bit different from what you could get at the mainstream sites. I created ...

Kennedy's Corridor: Breeders' Cup Top 5
http://kennedyscorridor.blogspot.com/2009/10/breeders-cup-top-5_20.html
Tuesday, October 20, 2009. Breeders' Cup Top 5. All of the major preparation races are over so this week's top 5 rankings will be the last for this years Breeders' Cup. It's kind of useless to be putting out top 5 lists when you could be pouring over the entries making actual selections. Pre. Entries will be drawn sometime next week and from here on in it will be all about workouts, post positions and proposed tactics. 1 Rail Trip (1). 2 Rip Van Winkle (2). 4 Richard's Kid (new). Can't handle the youngst...

Kennedy's Corridor: Weekend Review
http://kennedyscorridor.blogspot.com/2009/10/weekend-review_19.html
Monday, October 19, 2009. Woodbine hosted the major action of the weekend and the races provided a good mixture between being formful. And downright crazy. I was surprised to see Champs Elysees. Made the favorite in the Canadian International. I would have thought that Jukebox Jury with his flashy European form would command most of the attention but the public got it spot on. Lahaleed. Did so well against their elders. Lahaleeb. And Rainbow View completed the exacta. The standings have finally been upda...

Kennedy's Corridor: Rail Trip
http://kennedyscorridor.blogspot.com/2008/12/rail-trip.html
Tuesday, December 09, 2008. The winter is a great time to unearth horses with hidden potential or at least horses with obvious potential that no one has bothered to notice. I spend a good deal of time watching video during racings. Off season". Essentially I'm just looking for things that stick out. Because it's a Tuesday and I can't think of any other topic to pontificate about I thought I'd briefly highlight one horse who really stuck out to me. I spend way too much time perusing Internet. He out-broke...

Kennedy's Corridor: Track This
http://kennedyscorridor.blogspot.com/2009/10/track-this.html
Wednesday, October 21, 2009. Not sold on the usefulness of individual timing or ground loss data? How about this use for Trakus. In a lengthy explanation to the Keeneland. Publicity staff, Michael Ciacciarelli. Chief executive officer for Trakus. Was traveling about 2.2 feet per second faster than Proviso at the time of the foul. Had there been no foul and if the two horses had kept a constant speed for the remaining 380 feet of the race, Mushka. Would have won by about 1 1/2 lengths, Ciacciarelli.

Kennedy's Corridor: Breeders' Cup Top 5
http://kennedyscorridor.blogspot.com/2009/10/breeders-cup-top-5_23.html
Friday, October 23, 2009. Breeders' Cup Top 5. This is the last installment of the Breeders' Cup Top 5 for the Female side. I had already posted my last run down for the male side. Just in time for Rail Trip (my #1 Classic horse) to be removed from consideration. I'm not going to go back and edit that list but Rip Van Winkle now becomes my #1 and Summer Bird moves back onto the list at #5. The pre. 2 Music Note (2). 3 Careless Jewel (3). 5 Life Is Sweet (new). Sadly the time came to drop Icon Project.

Kennedy's Corridor: Gauging Europeans
http://kennedyscorridor.blogspot.com/2009/10/gauging-europeans.html
Thursday, October 22, 2009. Two days ago Nick Luck looked to answer the question of which Europeans might be vulnerable at the Breeders' Cup. It's a good question and I thought he wrote out his analysis well. But there is another side to the coin that was not discussed and that is the statistical record of Europeans that fit specific profiles. And Dylan Thomas all failed pretty badly. Ace and Banks Hill actually ran better races ( ie. Achieved an improved finishing position) in the Breeders' Cup than the...
