NITROGEN epitomizes class as does the Green family as she captures the G1 Ogden Phipps. The kind of filly one can truly only dream of in a performance that we will never forget.

@mocowgirl15@TrackPhantom Yep they do. I don’t think people realize the misogyny that is inherent in the sport. It’s changing slowly thank goodness but there’s still a lot of change that needs to happen.
A homebred of the late R. Larry Johnson, Future Is Now earned a sentimental victory while gutting out a nose victory in @Keenelandracing's Giant's Causeway Stakes (G3T) April 13. Read more: https://t.co/wrvDQdfiI9 @BH_SCollins
Franklin Stakes winner FUTURE IS NOW (MD) kicks off her 2025 campaign in today’s Grade 3 Giant’s Causeway Stakes @keenelandracing for trainer Michael Trombetta.
Can she add another win to her resume?

A DUEL TO THE WIRE!
📸 goes to FUTURE IS NOW ($6.96)! @Pacolopez1018 did not let her quit when Pandora's Gift (IRE) challenged her in the $350,000 Giant's Causeway Stakes (G3) at @KeenelandRacing. @trombetta_mike trains the five-year-old mare.
Homebred turf sprinter of the late R. Larry Johnson, Future Is Now (inside), gutted out a victory in the Giant’s Causeway Stakes-G3T (worth $250,000 to non-KTDF runners) going 5 1⁄2 furlongs on the grass at Keeneland on Sunday.
#MDBred champion Future Is Now defends her title today in the $200K Intercontinental-G2 at Saratoga (Race 7). Winner of 5 of her last 6, including Keeneland’s Giant’s Causeway-G3, she’s 5-for-7 at 5½f.
She is trained by Michael Trombetta for the Estate of R. Larry Johnson
What a comeback for #MDBred Future Is Now!!! She showed all her heart to win the Giant's Causeway Stakes in a nosebob photo.
She's now the fourth-highest earning progeny of Great Notion, training Fille d'Esprit, Anna's Bandit, and Coastal Mission.
Paco Lopez crosses the wire first in the nightcap, winning 6 of the 11 races today at @MonmouthPark.
When discussing his horsemanship only...I have never in my life seen a rider who can steer horses the way he does and seen so many horses so willing to make the moves he asks them to produce. We all hear that negative phrase, "Horses just don't run for that guy..." Well....horses RUN for Paco.
Great jockeys are difference makers, and he's certainly a difference maker. He wins on very live horses but also second-tier/price horses too.
The criticisms of him in the past have been warranted as have the consequences that have come along with the issues. That said, in my opinion when he's at his best he's an unbelievable horseman.
FUTURE IS NOW gets her fourth stakes win in her last five starts as she wins the Grade 3 Caress Stakes with @Pacolopez1018 up for trainer @trombetta_mike.
#MDBred FUTURE IS NOW (Great Notion), last seen winning the GII Franklin Stakes at Keeneland this past October, returns to the Lexington track today to make her 5-year-old debut in the GIII Giant's Causeway Stakes.
She was a four-time stakes winner last season.
