Horse Racing: Triple Tiara for Bushfire?by Pete CataldoBushfire is on her way to the Triple Tiara, that's for 3-year-old fillies on the New York racing circuit. Bushfire added a win Saturday in the Mother Goose Stakes to the win she posted in the Acorn Stakes earlier this Belmont meet and now needs to win the Coaching Club American Oaks also at Belmont on July 22d to wear the Tiara. Bushfire paid $ 8.60 in the $250,000 Mother Goose as she came from behind to win by of a length in 149.4 for the mile and an eighth. Pine Island was second and Ready to Please was third. Jockey Edgar Prado rides Bushfire, what a twist of fate if Prado gets the Tiara after his heartbreak in the Triple Crown. Looking for the best in online horse wagering? BetUS.com is your place!

The handicap horses were in action this weekend and Invasor defeated a group of older horses in the Grade I Suburban Handicap ($400,000) at Belmont Park. Invasor, coming off a big win in the Pimlico Special, came from behind and won by 4 lengths. Ridden by 18-year-old Fernando Jara, Invasor, the Argentine-bred, has now won seven of his eight career starts. Invasor's next start if all is well will be at the Spa in the $750,000 Whitney Stakes on August 5th. That will be just one of the daily stakes races at Saratoga this meet, here are some of the "big" stakes races upcoming at the Spa: The Schuyerville Stakes $100,000 for 2YO Fillies on the 26th of July, the Sanford Stakes Grade II for 2YO at 6F on July 27th, and the first Saturday of the meet July 29th will feature the Diana Stakes for the turf runners at 1 1/8 miles for a whopping $500,000! The Jim Dandy Stakes is for half a million for 3-year-olds in which we will get our second look at the triple crown horses and a few new 3-year-olds who will add to the mix of the likes of Jazil, Bernardini, Bluegrass Cat and the boys. FURLONGS: A white filly will be put up for auction at the Fasig-Tipton yearling sales in Lexington, Kentucky this summer. Only 5 white racehorses were registered in 2005. The owners are Nancy and Mike Mazzoni and they will consign the filly to be auctioned through the Darby Dan Agency. She will be HIP#41, so if you have $30,000 or so, you can make a bid. LEFT COAST: Del Mar where the surf meets the turf, opens on July 19th with the Oceanside Stakes, and will close with the Del Mar Futurity for 2-year-olds on September 6th and give us our first look at the Derby hopefuls for 2007. The famous Del Mar Handicap will be run on August 27th and usually has some of the top older horses on the planet. Bet on one of the most popular races for the Triple Crown; betting Preakness Stakes has begun! BELMONT: I've been in Vegas for the last few days and my players at Belmont tell me the track is favoring come-from-behind horses...so if you like the speed be careful. It seems to be just the opposite at Hollywood Park, the speed is winning. Now the dog days of summer turn into the horse days at tracks all over North America. Two weeks to Del Mar and Saratoga, I can't wait! Are you ready for betting Belmont Stakes? The World's top 3 year olds return for the third leg of the Triple Crown!
