00:00This week, the fastest horse of the week is brought to you by Nashville, one of those
00:07fast sires at Windstar Farm.
00:09They've got a lot of fast horses over there.
00:11We talk about life is good a lot of times.
00:13Hey, Nashville was pretty darn fast himself, but speed is the key to your breeding program.
00:18Take a look at this horse.
00:19After all, he was a track record setter at Keeneland, 107.89.
00:23Later the same day, the Breeders' Cup Sprint was nearly a second slower than that.
00:29Nashville won a six-furlong race at the Fairgrounds, 108.61, the fastest at the time in two years
00:34at the Fairgrounds.
00:35At Saratoga, he was a rising star.
00:38He won by 11 lengths at six-and-a-half furlongs, covered the first six furlongs, the internal
00:42fraction of that race, 107.92.
00:46Blazing fast, son of champion sprinter and sire of sires, Spikestown and Nashville's
00:51first weanlings will sell this November.
00:54Now, this is a perfect segue, right?
00:57This is the horse of the week, ran in Nashville, essentially, AG Bullitt at Kentucky Downs
01:03in Franklin, Kentucky, in the Ladies' Turf Sprint, run one race after, the very next
01:09race after the Nashville Derby.
01:11AG Bullitt, trained by Richie Baltus, started off this winter and spring at Santa Anita,
01:18winning the Wishing Well in the Monrovia at six-and-a-half furlongs, had a bad race at
01:22the Distaff Turf Mile at Churchill Downs on Kentucky Derby weekend on a good course that
01:26was kind of quirky at the time at Churchill Downs, came back in July at Del Mar, won the
01:30Osanitas wire-to-wire at a mile, then they shipped AG Bullitt to Kentucky Downs and all
01:35she did in the Ladies' Turf Sprint, worth only a million-and-a-half dollars, opened
01:39up six lengths at the top of that long stretch, won by five-and-a-quarter in a buyer speed
01:45figure of 106.
01:48She'd run some fast races before.
01:50This was obviously the fastest, and it makes AG Bullitt our Fastest Horse of the Week.
