Just a reminder that if you are feeling like you are in a black hole, I - and so many others - am here to listen. I know it's hard to feel like you can talk to anyone when you're in a place like that but there are so many people in the world who love and support you.

Justify won from seven furlongs to 1 1/2 miles as a racehorse and he's passing on that versatility to his runners with his three stakes winners on Saturday covering that distance span while finding success on both the dirt and turf.

@GloriousAllianc @ABRLive 11 years ago? Time flies!

[Melissa Bauer-Herzog - Pyrois Media @PyroisMedia]

It was a big weekend of racing between the second woman in four years training a @BelmontStakes winner and multiple breeding crosses letting their success be known in races on both sides of the Atlantic. Safe to say, it was a racing nerd's dream from start to end this week!

Him not even moving on her when the rest of the jockeys were riding hard then going back to sitting still once she was clear is insane. That was some performance

Wow. Wow. Wow! 😱

It's always fun seeing what @joeclancy65, @bySeanClancy, @SaratogaTL, and the rest of the team on the ground produce every edition

This weekend showed the @coolmoreamerica stallion barn has a successful cross on its hands with current resident Tiz The Law showing that he crosses well with the late Scat Daddy (which bodes well for Justify mares bred to the stallion as well).

@Doogievet Thank you!

[Melissa Bauer-Herzog - Pyrois Media @PyroisMedia]

.@coolmorestud/@CoolmoreAus's Starspangledbanner was the star of the show this weekend with his three European stakes performers including two classic winners, adding to his total of stars produced by Sadler's Wells and Danehill granddaughters.

[Melissa Bauer-Herzog - Pyrois Media @PyroisMedia]

Arguably no one had a better weekend than @LanesEndFarms, whose stallion barn played a huge part in the @PreaknessStakes results.

[Melissa Bauer-Herzog - Pyrois Media @PyroisMedia]

@tanyagun @johndgunther She was one of the best 😍. All good over here, hope you're having a big celebration tonight!

[Melissa Bauer-Herzog - Pyrois Media @PyroisMedia]

Two legs of the Triple Crown done ... two horses co-bred by women! Congratulations @tanyagun and @johndgunther!

This one is extra cool for me because Napoleon Solo's granddam is one of my favorite mares I ever worked with.

[Melissa Bauer-Herzog - Pyrois Media @PyroisMedia]

Liam's Map 🤝 Scat Daddy daughters

That cross is striking at 26.1% stakes performers, led by 2 G1 winners, with both those Grade 1 winners (Napoleon Solo & Burnham Square) still active. NS was also G1W at 2 while Burnham Square won the G2 Elkhorn last month.

[Old Friends @Oldfriendsfarm]

We are excited to welcome our newest Old Friend for Life!

As part of the @PreaknessStakes card today, Wickeddivine won the Old Friends Purse, and guaranteed himself lifetime retirement with Old Friends. We'll be here if he should ever need us. Congratulations Wickedivine!

If you are visiting Keeneland to watch Golden Tempo train we had this special rub pad made to easily find him. He leaves the barn at 8 Sun-Thursday, breezes Friday (generally) at 7:30.

[Melissa Bauer-Herzog - Pyrois Media @PyroisMedia]

Did you know that if all 14 horses entered start, Saturday's @preaknessstakes field will be the biggest field we've seen in the Preakness since there were 14 in 2011?

The full field of 14 have started the race twice since 2000 & the average field size has been 10 starters.

[Melissa Bauer-Herzog - Pyrois Media @PyroisMedia]

While most of the attention around Uncle Mo's legacy is focused on his higher priced sons, at @darbydanfarm Modernist is working hard to create his own chapter with three stakes performers in 10 days to end April and start May.

[Melissa Bauer-Herzog - Pyrois Media @PyroisMedia]

It was a huge weekend for stallions in the G1 Kentucky Oaks, G1 @KentuckyDerby, G1 2000 Guineas, and G1 1000 Guineas with three of them dominating classic races and the fourth capping off a very productive first classic experience for a freshman sire!

[Cherie DeVaux @reredevaux]

Left one at barn 14, it was Chuck’s barn where it all started
