Bolt d'Oro

Opening for bidding with 31 offerings, the 2026 Inglis Digital USA June Sale is now online, and is led by in-form racing prospects coming off strong recent performances--namely Gigabit (Dialed In) and Range Goat (Bolt d'Oro). The former is a 3-year-old filly last seen earning a 92 Beyer for her allowance victory at Horseshoe Indianapolis by a widening 6 1/4 lengths. She is a half-sister to multiple stakes winner Twirling Queen (Twirling Candy) and they're both daughters of MSW Adventurous Lady (Kantharos). Gigabit is consigned by Lantern Hill Farm, and...

2nd-MTH, $45k, Msw, 2yo, 4 1/2f, post time: 1:19 p.m. ET A $1.4-million graduate of the 2024 Fasig-Tipton Saratoga Yearling Sale, REGENT'S PARK (Bolt d'Oro) kicked off his career from the rail at the Jersey Shore. The bay colt is a son of the three-times stakes-placed Spark (Speightstown), also the dam of SW and Irish Group 3 placegetter Launch (Omaha Beach). The colt's second dam Mon Belle (Maria's Mon), a full-sister to 2001 GI Kentucky Derby hero Monarchos, dropped six winners, including SW & GSP Supreme (Empire Maker),  whose son...

Drawn into post nine, the honor of being the morning line favorite for Preakness 151 went to GIII Gotham Stakes hero Iron Honor (Nyquist) as a competitive, wide-open cast came together Monday evening during the post-position draw. A full field of 14 contenders, the largest since 2011 when Shackleford won, are set to go for this year's running of the middle jewel of the Triple Crown contested at Laurel Park. The race was moved as renovations continue at Pimlico downstate. Iron Honor will carry the colors of St. Elias Stable,...

The sixth-place finisher in the GI Kentucky Derby will be heading to Maryland this week as trainer Riley Mott revealed that Incredibolt (Bolt d'Oro) will be entered into the GI Preakness Stakes. "The horse is doing extremely well," Mott said by phone from Louisville Monday afternoon. "He came out of the Derby in good shape, and we have been clocking the field of [Preakness] horses and we thought it would be the right opportunity to try the horse back." He also added that Incredibolt would train at Churchill Tuesday morning...

Undefeated Taj Mahal (Nyquist) has been all the rage in the lead up to the GI Preakness Stakes, and his move Saturday morning will have done nothing to cool those feelings as the Brittany Russell trainee posted his fourth consecutive bullet move. Sent out to work five furlongs with exercise rider Alex Beitia aboard, he went in company with stakes winner Regalo (Maximus Mischief) early in the morning at 6:15am. Taj Mahal cruised through splits of :12 1/5, :24 1/5, :36 2/5, and :48 flat while leading his workmate throughout....

On a busy Friday morning at Churchill Downs, 138 horses recorded a published workout with GI Preakness Stakes possible Silent Tactic (Tacitus) headlining a group which also included the G1 Dubai World Cup hero Hit Show (Candy Ride {Arg}). The former, scratched from the Kentucky Derby due to an ongoing battle with a foot bruise, breezed four furlongs in :48.80 (48/111) for trainer Mark Casse. "He worked at 5:29 [a.m.], and I saw the video at 5:30," Casse said by phone from his main base in Ocala, Fla. "I thought...

by Jessica Martini & Stefanie Grimm OCALA, FL - With vibrant trade throughout the day, the Ocala Breeders' Sales Company's Spring 2-Year-Olds in Training Sale concluded its third session Thursday with figures still well ahead of its 2025 renewal and on track for a record-setting gross, average and median ahead of the auction's final session Friday. A filly by Bolt d'Oro became the auction's fourth million-dollar juvenile when purchased by Bill Childs's CSLR for $1.3 million. The session-topper was consigned by Raul Reyes's Kings Equine. Through three of four sessions,...

Later in Thursday's session, Hip 840, a daughter of Bolt d'Oro, brought $1.3 million from Bill Childs. Consigned by Kings Equine, the filly is out of GSW Gas Station Sushi (Into Mischief). Bred by Spendthrift Farm, the Feb. 22 foal breezed in :9 4/5 during last week's under tack show. Spendthrift purchased Gas Station Sushi for $675,000 at Fasig-Tipton November in 2018. The mare, a half-sister to GSP Miss Costa Rica (Hit It a Bomb), is the dam of Starlit Daydream, who in turn produced SW Sandy Bottom (Omaha Beach).

Not a day goes by when Dana Bernhard doesn't think of her late husband, Jim, and his passing at age 71 in November after a brief illness. "It's still an extremely profound loss," she said. But something has come along to lift her spirits: the recent success of Incredibolt (Bolt d'Oro) and Albus (Yaupon). Incredibolt won the Virginia Derby and Albus captured the GII Wood Memorial Stakes, giving both enough points to make it into the field for the GI Kentucky Derby. It is a remarkable achievement for Pin Oak...

Rome was not built in a day. So at a time when Derby dreams can only be maintained by one horse dashing those of several others, let's celebrate a revival that should give hope to any now finding themselves obliged to retreat and regroup. This time last year Built (Hard Spun) was slithering down the sophomore pyramid. He had started out thrashing a smart horse in the Gun Runner Stakes, but each of the three subsequent Fair Grounds trials went worse. He did make Churchill on the first Saturday in...

NEW KENT, VA--From one CD to another. In his second start of the year, Pin Oak Stud's Incredibolt (Bolt d'Oro) stamped his ticket for a return trip to Churchill Downs with a visually-impressive finish in Saturday's Virginia Derby at Colonial Downs. Under the tutelage of Riley Mott, the 6-1 choice is already proven under the Twin Spires when he finished out his juvenile campaign with a win in the GIII Street Sense Stakes in late October. And while his return to the track earlier this season didn't go quite as...

Turf mares sure know how to put on a show. It came down to a blanket finish in the GII Hillsborough Stakes at Tampa Bay Downs, but Destino d'Oro (Bolt d'Oro) showed her heart with an ultra-game performance to win the photo. Crowned the 2026 queen of the GII Pegasus World Cup Filly & Mare Turf Invitational Stakes in her most recent performance, via an equally exciting finish no less, the Brad Cox filly has now strung together three consecutive wins. The first of the group was a head decision...
