New York Marathon Winner Tests Positive For Performance-Enhancing Horse

Thu, 05 Nov 2009 23:28:26 GMT

NEW YORK—Officials from New York Road Runners stripped American Meb Keflezighi of his 2009 ING New York City Marathon victory Wednesday after a blood sample taken from his fetlock was found to contain high levels of performance-enhancing horse.

Keflezighi finished the race in 48 minutes and 12 seconds, easily setting a new world record and defeating his nearest competitor by one hour and 20 minutes.

Course workers, spectators, and event sponsors have all presented damaging evidence pointing toward Keflezighi's use of equine enhancements. Volunteers working refreshment tables during the race said Keflezighi took water only twice—at miles nine and 17—consuming roughly 10 gallons each time, and was the only professional runner in the men's event to request an oat, carrot, and sugar lump station. In addition, a spokesman for Nike told reporters the company provided Keflezighi with six shoes for the marathon, four of which required special construction before being nailed onto his feet.

Breeder’s Cup 2009 Preview: Classic brings out lady

Watch out, It’s Billie Jean vs. Bobby Riggs all over again this weekend, except for the fact that this Billie will have to beat TWELVE Bobbie’s. The 5-year old female sensation Zenyatta will race against twelve males in the Breeders Cup Classic, second only to the Kentucky Derby as the biggest race of the year. It will be the mares first time in the Classic and first time running against the boys.

For the rest of my eliminations, and final picks for the Classic and all the Breeders Cup races, be sure to join me at bet republic come Saturday. See you there….

I start by tossing out the Birds – Mine That Bird and Summer Bird.

To me, ‘capping the nags is more a matter of eliminating also-rans than picking the winner. I haven’t completed all of my work, but I have my identified the first two horses that do not make my cut.

In Horse Racing Picks Zenyatta had the second shortest odds at the 2009 Breeders Cup than any other entry outside of Rip Van Winkle. Her odds were initially listed at +400 at Betrepublic but these odds are subject to change and had already dipped to +350 so lock them in now.

Owners Jerry and Ann Moss could have taken the easy way out and had their unbeaten 5-year-old mare defend her title in Fridays Breeders Cup Ladies Classic. She would have been an odds-on favorite to win and finish her career 14-for-14, at Horse Racing Picks .

Zenyattas amazing rally has brought her from last or near last to first in each of her starts. But those were just races against mostly ordinary horses. This is the race against an extraordinary group of horses.

Zenyatta will get a lot of wagers regardless. Betrepublic continues to monitor Zenyatta 2009 Breeders Cup odds.

Friesian Horses

clipper's remarks: Friesians are one (#1, in my opinion) of the most magical and beautiful breeds of horse.
If I had enough money, time energy, etc..., I would have 50 of them with plenty of beaches and forests and pastures and hills for them to run and play all day. And, I'd spend all of my time painting pictures and taking photos and movies of them to share with you!

One of the outstanding characteristics of the Friesian horse is its very long mane and tail. These are never cut and often reach the ground. The breed also has abundant feather and long leg hair reaching from the middle of the leg. The color is always black, and only a white star in the forehead is permissible. The head of the Friesian is carried quite high and the face is expressive. The neck is carried rather vertically and is low-set. The legs and quarters are muscular yet smooth. It stands at 15 hands and has an excellent disposition.

A Word On Conflict ~ What Horses Can Teach Us (Puny Humans)

If you've ever been on the back of a bucking horse you've not doubt felt the power of these magnificent creatures...along with the pure exhilaration and absolute terror of the moment. When it happens, all you can do is hold and and hope it doesn't kill you. I've experienced this more than a few times, and I can tell ya...it's something you never forget.
