Spendthrift Farm's Kingsbarns (Uncle Mo) earned an automatic berth in the GI Longines Breeders' Cup Classic with a dominant victory in the GI Stephen Foster Stakes at Churchill Downs Saturday. The 2-1 shot rated just off the pace as First Mission (Street Sense) and Skippylongstocking (Exaggerator) took the field through a moderate opening quarter in :24.13. First Mission, the 4-5 favorite, took charge as the half went up in :48.38, but Kingsbarns was rolling up three wide to grab control into the stretch. The favorite attempted to fight back, but Kingsbarns had all the momentum and soon kicked away to a clear advantage. Pyrenees (Into Mischief), who reeled in Kingsbarns in the final strides to win the GIII Pimlico Special in May, chased home in vain Saturday.

Rick Pitino was once considered a villain in Kentucky after trading his Wildcat blue for Louisville red. The head coach has made amends, in a way, with NIL support to his former employer. But while that’s excited Kentucky fans about the future of its athletics programs, it’s further strained his relationship with the Cardinals. That’s […]

Many believe the cryptid Ozark Howler is simply a folk monster like Momo. The Ozark Howler has been brought forward in oral traditions as a creature of the Ozark Mountains. The Ozark Mountains span parts of Missouri and Arkansas and have been home to this legendary creature that has captured the imagination of many. This elusive animal has been described as a large, black, and shaggy creature. Some say it looks like a very large cat. It's also been reported in numerous sightings, stories of which have been passed down through generations. Many wonder if the Ozark Howler is a real creature or simply a myth.

Georgetown (Ky.) Great Crossing 4-star center Malachi Moreno has become a top priority for Mark Pope since he was named new Kentucky head coach back in April. Pope called Moreno the first day he took the job, then had a keen eye on him during the first live period in May. Then, Pope flew to Colorado Springs over Memorial Day weekend to watch Moreno compete at the United States U18 National Team trials. Earlier this month, Pope also scouted Moreno at the prestigious NBPA Top 100 Camp in Orlando and then again at the KABC Titans/Rockets Shootout in Shelbyville.

I can't stress how big of a deal this is. PMT hosting KSR is always one of the funniest days of the year because so many of my fellow Cat fans have no idea who Big Cat and PFT are. They just lose their minds over obvious jokes/trolls. This is why we're Big Blue Nation though. We're not rational people. We're hardly normal. We live and die over Kentucky sports and take everything as serious as it gets.
