Overanalyze charges late to win Arkansas Derby

HOT SPRINGS, Ark. (AP) ? Mike Repole wasn't sure what to make of a disappointing start of the year for his standout 3-year-old, Overanalyze, after a fifth-place finish at the Gotham Stakes last month.

The owner decided to give the colt a six-week break afterward, a move that paid off in convincing fashion Saturday.

Ridden by Rafael Bejarano for the first time, Overanalyze stormed down the home stretch to pull away and win the $1 million Arkansas Derby ? making a three-time winner out of trainer Todd Pletcher.

The colt, who struggled so mightily in his only other start of the year, once again found the form that made him a winner in three of five races last year as a 2-year-old. He won by 4? lengths and earned Pletcher his first win in the 1 1/8-mile Kentucky Derby prep since winning back-to-back Arkansas derbies in 2000 and 2001.

He also more than made up for his difficult first start of the year, a race in which he was favored and among the leaders on the final turn before fading.

"I think he more than redeemed himself," Repole said. "... I was waiting for the move, and the move came. It just came six weeks later in the Arkansas Derby."

Repole was counting on Overanalyze to be a Kentucky Derby contender this year, particularly after the colt earned more than $350,000 last year, and he wasn't sure what to make of the colt's first start in three months on March 2 at the Gotham.

"He kind of sat down," jockey John Velazquez told Repole. "It just looked like he needed a race."

Overanalyze made a prophet on Saturday out of Velazquez, who ceded his position on the colt to Bejarano due to injury. The colt also confirmed for Repole that is was indeed the right decision to rest him for six weeks after the Gotham.

"He really took a lot of steps forward since the Gotham race," Repole said. "I'm not really surprised that he won. I think I'm really shocked how easy he won and by how much he won."

Trained by Pletcher, Overanalyze started in the No. 9 gate in the 10-horse race and trailed with a second group for much of the race. He charged ahead after the final turn, however and easily pulled away from runner-up Frac Daddy and third-place finisher Carve.

Overanalyze paid $9.40, $5.60 and $4.60. Frac Daddy returned $16.80 and $11, and Carve paid $8.60 to show. Overanalyze earned 100 points in the race for a spot in the Kentucky Derby, while Frac Daddy earned 40 and Carve 20.

Bejarano, who won the 2009 Arkansas Derby on Papa Clem, said he even pulled up on the final 1/16th of the race in order to save stamina for Overanalyze.

"I'm sure he's going to be ready for the Kentucky Derby," Bejarano said.

Overanalyze had run only once previously this year after his stellar 2-year-old campaign, his fifth-place finish at the Gotham.

The Repole Stable-owned 3-year-old had no such problems on Saturday in front of 66,158 in attendance at Oaklawn ? running in 1:51.94 and holding off a field that included two Bob Baffert-trained horses.

Baffert's pre-race favorite, War Academy, pulled up on the back stretch before walking off the Oaklawn Park track under his own power. The colt garnered much of the pre-race focus after two wins in three races before backing out of the gate before the race and breaking stride on the back stretch.

"He was just very uncertain over the surface and I tried to get him to settle," jockey Mike Smith said. "He was OK on the first turn, but then he took four or five really awkward steps.

"I didn't see anything major causing it, but I just felt really awkward on him and figured better safe than sorry so I pulled him up. I didn't want to take any chances."

The Hall of Fame trainer's other horse, Den's Legacy, also generated plenty of attention as Baffert attempted to win his second straight Arkansas Derby after Bodemesiter's win a year ago.

It was Pletcher, however, who stole the show with Overanalyze. The former assistant to trainer D. Wayne Lukas, and 2010 Kentucky Derby winner with Super Saver, won his first Arkansas Derby since Graeme Hall in 2000 and Balto Star in 2001.

Overanalyze earned $600,000 with the win, while Frac Daddy ? at 24-1 ? won $200,000 and Carve $100,000.

The race's other favorite, Oxbow, never threatened. The Lukas-trained colt, second in the Rebel Stakes, finished a disappointing fifth.

There was no such disappointment for Overanalyze, who made a three-time winner out of Pletcher in the Arkansas Derby and a first-time winner out of Repole in his first race at Oaklawn.

"This is why I got into the game," Repole said.

Ouya details their shipping schedule for early backers of the console project

Ouya shipping schedule

All backers still on-track to receive their unit by May 25, one quarter of which will come before the end of April

Ouya founder and CEO Julie Uhrman has sent out a message to the Kickstarter backers of the Ouya console that gives a peek at their projected shipping schedule. We see a sharp uptick today, and another near the end of the month when "larger-scale" weekly shipments are expected.

She also mentions that they have made a tweaks to the process that could shave days off the shipping time. We imagine building, sorting, and shipping out consoles to all the backers is not an easy job. Things can (and often do) go wrong, throwing off projections. Here's hoping everything goes smoothly and backers have their unit in hand soon.

  • Sophie Coldwell's parents blame no one for her death and hope what happened to her can help save other lives

By Hugo Gye

PUBLISHED: 05:14 EST, 11 April 2013 | UPDATED: 06:22 EST, 12 April 2013

A teenage girl died from a rare form of leukaemia just 10 days after doctors told her she was only suffering from tonsillitis and fatigue.

Sophie Coldwell, 17, had been feeling tired for some time, but her parents attributed it to the increased burden of schoolwork.

In fact, she was suffering from a cancer so aggressive that a hospital consultant said he had never seen anything like it - and now her family hopes to save others by raising awareness of the devastating condition.

Tragic: Sophie Coldwell, 17, died after falling victim to a rare and aggressive form of leukaemia last month

Sophie visited an NHS walk-in centre on March 7, but was sent home after being diagnosed with chronic fatigue, tonsillitis and inflamed gums.

But her condition failed to improve in the following days, and on March 16 her parents called an ambulance to their home in Yardley, Birmingham when her breathing became shallow and raspy.

She lost consciousness on the way to Solihull Hospital and although she was later transferred to Heartlands Hospital she never recovered, dying in the early hours of March 17 from suspected acute monoblastic myeloid leukaemia.

Sophie's father Andy, 46, a manager at Jaguar Land Rover, said today that he hoped the news of her sudden death could save lives in the future.

'Sophie wasn't feeling that well,' he said. 'She couldn't eat because her mouth was that sore. She had a tough 10 days, really.

'She felt tired. At the time, we put that down to it being her first year in college, it was longer hours - it didn't really raise any concerns at the time.

'As a father, I question everything I did and whether any more could have been done. The fact it took everybody by surprise doesn't mean you still don't do that as parents.

'The consultant said teams would learn from this because of how aggressive and quickly it happened.'

Her mother Sherry, 46, a receptionist at a doctor's surgery, added: 'The consultant said he had never seen anything so aggressive. How quickly it happened was just something he had not seen before.'

Sophie was a student at Solihull Sixth Form College, and had been going out with her boyfriend Matt Robinson since November last year.

The 18-year-old knew his girlfriend was unwell, but had no idea how serious her condition would turn out to be.

In a moving last text he wrote to Sophie, he said: 'You've gone from a girl I added on Facebook to being my life, my heart, my soul, my world, my rock, my shoulder, my everything.

'You're just amazing. Everything about you is stunning, from your smile to your eyes, from your hair to your half-painted nails, from your freckles on top of your shoulders to the freckles on your forehead my perfection.'

Her sister Katie, 14, wrote a poignant letter to Sophie which was printed in the order of service at her funeral.

SYMPTOMS OF LEUKAEMIA

The five most common signs of cancer in young people aged 13 to 24 are persistent and unexplained pain, extreme tiredness, weight loss, an unexplained lump, bump or swelling or changes in a mole.

Other symptoms of acute myeloid leukaemia include: pale skin, breathlessness, having repeated infections over a short space of time, unusual and frequent bleeding (such as bleeding gums or nose bleeds).

Easily bruised skin, excessive sweating and bone and joint pain are others.

She wrote: 'Your life was only just beginning, there is so much that you're going to miss out on, but I know that you will be watching over me and making sure that I make the right decisions, which is all I can ask from you.

'I hope that you are okay up there and I bet you're still saying "Get out of my room". One day, we will be together again. I just wish that I was there to say goodbye.'

Mr Coldwell said: 'Every day is a struggle, and that's really down to how quickly it happened. It's taken a while for us to get our heads around.

'We have had really fantastic support from family, friends and Sophie's friends, who are taking Katie out and promise to look after her.

'She met Matt in November. I'm a typical father but Matt, right from the start, hit it off with Sophie and with us. From a dad point of view, he ticked all the boxes straight away. You could almost see the connection they had.'

Amino Acid Mix as an Alternative to Protein PowderTammy's Health ...

Amino Acid Mix as an Alternative to Protein Powder Photo Credit Comstock/Comstock/Getty Images Branch-chain amino acid powders are a common supplement choice for exercisers and sports enthusiasts. Unlike protein powder, branch-chain amino acids supplements claim to improve athletic performance by boosting the effects of the individual amino acids in your body. However, creatine protein powders have been a long-time staple among bodybuilders and athletes, and have been studied more extensively. For best results, compare the different benefits of either mixture to help you choose the supplement that best meets your nutrition and exercise needs.

Branch-chain amino acid supplements are formed by combining different essential amino acids, such as isoleucine, leucine and valine. According to a report published in a 2005 issue of the ?Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition,? amino acid supplements are theorized to enhance athletic performance by increasing the secretion of anabolic hormones and modifying the use of fuel during exercise. Branch-chain amino acids are also purported to prevent some adverse effects of overtraining, while preventing mental fatigue. This happens as a result of the relationship between branch-chain amino acids and serotonin levels in the brain, which may delay central nervous system fatigue. Because of these purported benefits, some exercisers prefer to take amino acid supplements in place of standard creatine protein powders. Creatine is one of the most common chemicals used in the creation of protein powders and exercise shakes. Like all types of animal protein, creatine also contains certain types of amino acids. What makes branch-chain amino supplements so distinctive is the individual combinations of different amino acids that they combine in specific doses. However, according to a study published in a 2008 issue of the ?Journal of Sports Medicine and Physical Fitness,? branch-chain amino acid supplements are more effective at boosting muscle recovery and immune regulation than muscle building. Comparatively, creatine protein powders have been linked to increased muscle mass in athletes and older adults, according to MedlinePlus. Based on the available information, creatine protein powders are likely to be more beneficial in building muscle, while branch-chain amino acids are more effective for muscle recovery and injury prevention. If you are currently focusing on building muscle mass through weight lifting, creatine protein powders are more likely to provide the best results for your exercise goals. However, endurance and aerobic athletes may prefer the delayed fatigue and accelerated recovery perks of branch-chain amino acid supplements. If possible, try out one or the other for three months at a time, to see which type of supplementation provides the best results for your activity.Talk to your doctor before taking any type of protein or amino acid supplement if you are currently taking prescription or over-the-counter medications, dietary supplements or herbal remedies. While no specific interactions have been recorded for amino acid-based nutritional supplementation, Drugs.com lists 37 different brand name and generic drugs that interact with creatine, including: Xanax, fish oil, DHEA, Crestor, L-arginine, gingko biloba, Lyrica, Singulair, valerian root, coenzyme Q10 and Viagra.
