2009 Kentucky Derby Prospect The Pamplemousse

[randomblond92]

Gosh I love that horse. Such a powerful mover.

[fancigal]

"Ohhh! He's getting frisky!" Alex Solis is so awesome, my favorite jockey.

[Zenyattaisqueen]

This video is great. Love his response to the "Square Eddie" question. No problem! Was my top Derby pick too. My heart broke when I heard he was sidelined. The big guy will come back bigger and stronger, then they all better look out.

So far the runners are: Old Fashioned, Dunkirk, Betthoven, Square Eddie, Pioneerof The Nile, Friesan Fire, Desert Party, Quality Road, I Want Revenge, Win Willy, Mafaaz(GB), Regal Ransom, and Hold Me Back. Horses that are off the Derby trail are: Stardom Bound, The Pamplemousse, Midshipman, and Vinyarde Haven.

2. Fresian Fire

3. Win Willy

4. Square Eddie

its to bad he got pulled out of the derby he was going to be my top pic

[lovedbysweetie]

do u know what exactly is wrong with his tendon? Lets us know????

[clarinet161]

He has heat in his tendon.

[avagoodava]

what happened to him today at Santa Anita Derby? was so looking forward to seeing him.

[clarinet161]

The vet looked at him this morning and said he was stiff and the vet didn't want to take any chances. I don't blame the the vet.

[Roadie02]

He had some heat in a tendon, so they chose to scratch. But he will be back to crush al rivals in the Derby!

[clarinet161]

Unfortunitly, he scrached from the Derby too.... I hope that Gato Go Wion gets in the Derby! I'll be rooting for him!

[avagoodava]

too bad...liked that Pamplemousse! How's Dunkirk's prospects?

[clarinet161]

Dunkirk is in the Kentucky Derby if he doesn't get injured.

[clarinet161]

I mean Gato Go Win

[Lauratherider]

lil jumpy at :48

[jtwisted7]

i have read in many articles that he (the pamplemousse) has one of the most awkward strides ever. he was over looked by many when he went to sale as a young horse. but just look at him fly. he is a beautiful big strong gray.

[Jorizon]

I say he wins the roses

[lengua92]

I just love that stride

[joeyowtby]

Could be a great horse, but the Derby field is tough and is Quality Road will be my pick. i do like the Mousse in the Preakness and I'll be there.

[carlykaiser]

Grapefruit!!! :D

[householdersss]

The Mousse is loose! Kafwain's mama actually has some stamina via Hatchetman and Quack. I do see the Cherokee Run influences as limitations though. Like him much better for the Preakness.

[slanguage1]

Awsome video of a fine speciman of a horse. Keep them coming of this guy I think we have something special here. Cant wait so see him upclose and center at the Santa Anita Derby!!

[FutureJockey1]

I'd like to see him run on more dirt tracks rather than synthetic, but he's one of my picks for the derby!

[sugarpuppy137]

I love Pamplemousse!

He was outstanding today in the Sham Stakes, he romped with 6 lengths.

I believe we might have a Kentucky Derby winner here x)

[rcherasaro]

wow..this is great..he is a really well made horse..his motor is huge!! i think i love him

[ilovehorses096]

i cant wait to see who will win him or maybe old fashioned or stardom bound

[kimzinnie]

Did a future wager with this guy-- fave word in my French classes last year!

[Janosita]

Very interesting horse - beautiful head, excellent attitude and nice speed and distance abilities.

[creepycoyote]

"Ohhhh he's feeling frisky!"

What a cute reaction! I couldn't tell who his exercise rider was. Was it Alex Solis?

Thanks for posting this. But I think The Pamplemousse believes you're stalking him.

[kmnmiamisax]

I'm really starting to like this horse... he has great personality. I loved that reaction when you said he had a small head! lol! :o)

[larryzapeye]

i shoot them myself...i post many videos...enjoy

[cowgurlmeup]

were did you get the clips

[mingorules1returns]

man! that horse is a cruiser! cant wait to see what he can do at churchhill downs!

[creaturelover]

impressive win in the San Rafael!!! Just needs to transfer that way to dirt!

[Rock8mywork789]

An excellent win today, very impressive. He just needs to run on the dirt now!

[Rock8mywork789]

I've heard so much buzz about this horse, I'd like to see him win this weekend.

[seggymon]

THE PAMPLEMOUSSE!!! he's too cool. I hope he runs big this weekend!
