MAJOR CLASSIC 'PLAYER' EMERGES
George Hall and SportBLX's Max Player (Honor Code) provedhis bounce-back GII Suburban S. score in July was no fluke as heagain showed more speed and pulled away to an emphaticvictory in the repositioned GI Jockey Club Gold Cup at Saratoga.A fringe player on last year's Triple Crown trail, the SteveAsmussen trainee has stamped himself as a legitimate GIBreeders' Cup Classic threat in two strong efforts at 10 furlongs,and earned an automatic berth into the year-end championshipevent Saturday as part of the AWin and You're In@ series. Scrubbed on by adept gate rider Ricardo Santana, Jr. from theblocks, 7-2 Max Player locked on to even-money Forza Di Oro(Speightstown) through a half in :48.70 and six panels in 1:13.14.The dark bay cranked up the pressure heading for home as lastyear's Jockey Club winner and 'TDN Rising Star' Happy Saver(Super Saver) loomed a threat just in behind. Forza Di Oro cutthe corner and briefly looked like he might open back up, butMax Player hit his stride by midstretch and powered away fromthere, relishing the real estate, to post the four-length victory.Happy Saver picked off the chalk late for second. AIt was beautiful,@ said Asmussen, who took this historic eventin both 2007 and 2008 with fellow Hall of Famer Curlin andagain in 2010 when it was contested at Belmont Park. AMax, inthe Suburban, ran that race under different circumstances on anoff track. For him to do this on a fast track in the Jockey ClubGold Cup here at Saratoga, it is very satisfying. This is who he is,and I thought it was a dominating win.@ Cont. p3
ECHO ZULU FACES EIGHT IN SPINAWAY Winchell Thoroughbreds and L and N Racing=s Echo Zulu (Gun
Runner), tabbed a 'TDN Rising Star' following her 5 1/2-length
debut victory at Saratoga July 15, will attempt to add to her
freshman sire's growing list of graded stakes winners when she
goes postward in the GI Spinaway S. at Saratoga Sunday. Her
first-out effort earned her a 92 Beyer Speed Figure--the highest
recorded figure for a 2-year-old filly this year.
AThe idea was always that she could be a Saratoga 2-year-old,@
said Winchell Thoroughbreds' racing and bloodstock advisor
David Fiske. AShe showed some early speed, but for her to win
the way she did and to get the number she got, I don=t think
anyone was expecting that.@
Echo Zulu, a half-sister to Grade I winner Echo Town
(Speightstown) and a $300,000 KEESEP yearling purchase, will
add a furlong and a half to that effort in the seven-furlong
Spinaway and she could become fast-starting Gun Runner's first
Grade I winner. Cont. p13

AI was happy with him. Today, he broke good, so I was really
happy with it. The trainer is doing all the [work],@ said
Asmussen's go-to rider Santana.
Overcoming a tendency to start slow in his early outings, Max
Player finished fast to take the GIII Withers S. third out last
February for then conditioner Linda Rice. He finished well-
beaten thirds behind Tiz the Law (Constitution) in both the
GI Belmont S. and track-and-trip GI Runhappy Travers S. over
that summer, but was transferred to Asmussen ahead of a fifth-
place GI Kentucky Derby run. Fifth in the GI Preakness S. in
October, he was shelved until the lucrative Saudi Cup Feb. 20,
but that long journey proved fruitless as he checked in a distant
11th. He once again found himself too far back when sixth in the
GIII Pimlico Special S. May 14, but looked like a different horse
from start to finish last time when belying 11-1 odds in defeating
subsequently sidelined G1 Dubai World Cup hero Mystic Guide
(Ghostzapper) in the July 3 Suburban over a sloppy track.

Ricardo Santana, Jr. | Sarah Andrew
Jockey Club Gold Cup cont.
AI really thought we had a chance with him at Churchill [in the
2020 Kentucky Derby], the way he was training over the track,@
Asmussen said. AHe lost so much ground early in the race and
then fought the dirt from where he was. He didn't even begin to
level off until the last eighth of the race and still ended up fifth.
AHe likes good spacing between his races. Ricardo has done a
tremendous job of putting him into the race, so he can actually
perform.
AWe went back with him to the gate and started from a hand
open, just to leave the gates. Ricardo did a tremendous amount
of work with him there and knows the horse really well. It took
some riding from Ricardo today in the first three or four jumps
but immediately, when he got him going, 50 yards from the gate
[I thought] 'you get your chance, I'm glad to see this.'
This has certainly been a meet to remember for Asmussen,
who became the all-time winningest trainer in North America
last month. He and Santana took both the GI Forego S. and
GI H. Allen Jerkens Memorial S. a week ago, and have live
chances in both the GI Spinaway S. and GI Hopeful S. during the
final two days of the meet.
AIt's been a dream meet. It really has,@ he said. AWith achieving
the record here. With the fans coming back. With how it felt. At
Saratoga--not only do you have fans--you have educated fans.
They=re aware of racing. To set the record here and this is the
third Grade I win of the meet. It's been a dream meet and it will
be beautiful to reflect on, but we have two Grade Is left before
we're there.@Cont. p5

JCGC cont.
As for the beaten favorite, trainer Bill Mott said, AI=m
disappointed that he didn=t get the 10 furlongs. I just didn=t think
he had any excuse. We=ve got to see. There=s another race; the
[Oct. 2 GI] Woodward could be a possibility [at 1 1/8 miles], I
suppose. But it=s a little early to commit to anything.@
Pedigree Notes:
Sire Honor Code displayed his own affinity for the Spa, earning
'TDN Rising Star' status for a debut score on the closing
Saturday card in 2013 before adding the GI Whitney S. here two
years later. He has added a second and third highest-level
winner to his CV as a stallion at the stand, having also been
responsible for Santana-piloted GI Coaching Club American Oaks
upsetter Maracuja. All three of his graded winners have won at
the Grade I level, and he has seven stakes winners overall.
Dam Fools in Love was an $80,000 Fasig-Tipton Midlantic
yearling who racked up a sizable bankroll herself on the track,
but has proven even more valuable in the breeding shed. The
half-sister to MGISW International Star (Fusaichi Pegasus), from
the deep family of Halory Hunter, Van Nistelrooy, et al,
produced black-type earners with each of her first three foals,
including $750,000 KEESEP yearling and Group 2-winning
juvenile Seahenge (Scat Daddy). After foaling Max Player, Fools
in Love was put in foal to Speightstown and brought $1 million
from Cheveley Park Stud at KEENOV in 2017. She did not
produce a foal in 2018, but is responsible for Ulysses (Ire) colts
of 2019 and 2021 and a yearling filly by Frankel (GB).

War Like Goddess | Sarah Andrew
George Krikorian & Julien Leparoux shake hands | Sarah Andrew
Flower Bowl cont.
Four of the bay filly's prior starts had come at a mile and three
furlongs and farther, as she graduated by a convincing 3 1/4
lengths at Churchill last October before getting some time off. A
better-than-it-might-look fifth after trying to make a run from
last in the GIII The Very One S. at Gulfstream first off a four-
month layoff Feb. 27, War Like Goddess came with a furious
stretch rally to make the grade by a nose in the GIII Orchid S. in
Hallandale Mar. 27. She handled the extra furlong of
Keeneland's GIII Bewitch S. Apr. 23 with consummate ease,
scoring by 3 3/4 lengths, and made this track's GII Glens Falls S.
her third straight graded conquest with a 3 1/4-length defeat of
My Sister Nat Aug. 7.
La Signare (Fr) (Siyouni {Fr}) hit the ground running and set a
reasonably strong pace for the distance as Great Island,
extremely impressive in winning the GIII WinStar Matchmaker S.
over nine panels at Monmouth July 17, was ridden much
handier. War Like Goddess settled just behind midfield, with the
white-capped My Sister Nat content to caboose the field. War
Like Goddess, a bit headstrong through the lane for the first
time, settled much more kindly down the backstretch, but it was
Joel Rosario who was first to play his hand as he sent Great
Island after her front-running stablemate in an attempt to get
first run on the heavy favorite. Great Island claimed La Signare in
upper stretch, but Julien Leparoux had yet to move a muscle
atop War Like Goddess, and the duo hit the front, felt one left-
handed crack of the crop and pulled confidently clear. Great
Island drifted a bit in upper stretch and was home a half-head
better than My Sister Nat.
AShe=s a classy filly,@ said Leparoux. AYou can do whatever you
want and she=ll still give you that punch in the end. It's nice. It=s a
sign of the good ones, for sure. Bill Mott knows how to get them
to these Grade Is. They took their time with her and it has paid
off. For sure, the Breeders= Cup is the goal, so if she gets there
healthy, she=ll be going in with a big chance.@
Pedigree Notes:
The 12th worldwide Group 1/Grade I winner for Calumet's
under-appreciated English Channel, War Like Goddess is the
ultimate rags-to-riches story. With no black-type to be found in
her first couple of dams, War Like Goddess attracted a couple of
$100 bids at Keeneland November in 2017, but two fewer bids
at the September sale, when she was led out unsold for the
upset price of $1,000. She had a few admirers at OBS June in
2019, selling for $30,000. War Like Goddess is one of two of her
sire's 32 graded/group winners worldwide to be produced from
a Danzig-line dam (Irish Strait).
The dam of the 3-year-old gelding Market Economy, by
English Channel's son Optimizer, Misty North is responsible for
the 2-year-old filly Thecradlewillrock (Red Rocks {Ire}). She was
sold in foal to Calumet's Bal a Bali (Brz) for $1,000 at the 2019
November Sale and produced a colt last May now named North
of Bali.

Versatile Cal-bred None Above the Law charged up the fence
under a gutsy ride by hot-handed Joe Bravo to prevail in a wide-
open renewal of the GII Del Mar Derby Saturday evening. A
back-to-back stakes winner at Golden Gate this spring--once on
the Tapeta and once on turf--the grey was beaten a neck by
Jimmy Blue Jeans (James Street) in the restricted Snow Chief S.
going this distance at Santa Anita June 19. Ninth behind a
number of these foes in the opening day Oceanside S., None
Above the Law was stretching back out after cutting back to take
the Cal-bred Real Good Deal S. over seven panels of dirt here on
two weeks' rest.
Scraping paint in a perfect spot just north of midpack early,
None Above the Law was ridden quietly heading for home as
Bravo waiting for running room to materialize. Hockey Dad
drifted off the fence slightly in upper stretch, and that was all
the winner needed. He squeezed through to take command
passing the entrance to the chute, and strode out from there
with a bit more room to stretch his legs en route to an
ultimately comfortable success. Cont. p9

Del Mar Derby cont.
A[Trainer] Peter [Miller] told me this horse can do anything,@
said Bravo, who recently revealed that he will be moving his tack
permanently to California after leaving his longtime home base
in New Jersey due to the banning of the whip there. AHe wins
running seven eighths on the dirt; he wins going a mile and
one-eighth on the grass. We just saved all we could and I
showed him daylight turning for home. He really got up under
me. I'm having fun riding out here. Riding for good horsemen
and riding good horses in Southern California. What more could
a guy want?"
Miller added, "I know he went from a mile on turf, to seven
furlongs on the dirt to a mile and an eighth on the turf to win
this. You won't find that in any training manual, that's not the
way you do it. But this horse just does everything well. He's just
an overachiever and I just love this horse. The Robinsons are
longtime clients and what a ride by Joe Bravo."
Pedigree Notes:
None Above the Law's owner/breeders J. Kirk and Judy
Robison also bred Saturday's GII John C. Mabee S. winner Going
to Vegas (Goldencent), who was claimed away from them and
Miller for $50,000. None Above the Law becomes the fourth
graded winner and is one of seven black-type winners for
Karaktonie (Jpn). He was a $30,000 in utero purchase at the
2017 Keeneland November sale. Dam Legally Blanca was a
stakes winner going seven furlongs on the Belmont turf. She has
an unraced 2-year-old colt named Blue Cheese Olive (Danzing
Candy). Northern Afleet now is the broodmare sire of 15
graded/group winners (26 black-type winners)--mostly in South
America.

Louisiana-bred Cilla was already two-time Horse of the Year
California Chrome's lone black-type winner, and became the
Japanese resident's first graded scorer Saturday as she fought
hard to upset Saratoga's GII Prioress S.
Away on top but never expected to make the lead, Cilla settled
behind Midlantic shippers Oxana (Uptowncharlybrown) and Edie
Meeny Miny Mo (Upstart) as they knocked heads through a
:22.25 opening quarter. The former dropped back abruptly on
the turn, and Cilla inherited chasing duties as Edie Meeny Miny
Mo posted a :45.06 half and favored Souper Sensational revved
up out in the clear. Cillia and Souper Sensational easily put away
Edie Meeny Miny Mo in upper stretch, and Souper Sensational
briefly headed Cilla, but the gutsy longshot would not back
down and clawed back a narrow advantage late. The pair
exchanged a couple of bumps in the stretch run, but no change
was made. Cont. p10

GIII Beaumont S. Apr. 2. She appeared to have found her best
form after a brief freshening, romping in the restricted Louisiana
Legends Mademoiselle S. in the Evangeline slop June 5 and then
the rained-off Blue Sparkler S. at Monmouth July 10. She was
transferred from regular conditioner Brett Brinkman to Charlie
Baker for this start, and had raced officially for Bentley Combs in
her prior New York try.
"I don=t run any horses in New York,@ Brinkman explained. AI
may come up once a year and the girl that rubs this horse [Lisa
Whitaker] used to work for Charlie [Baker].@
As for taking on the tougher competition Saturday, Brinkman
said, AShe=s fast and she=s a 3-year-old. There=s limited
opportunities for those fillies. We felt like after we got her on
track a couple of races ago and that we were going to let her
step along and buy her way to the next one. She=s obviously
bought her way to this one.@
Pedigree Notes:
Likely future Hall of Famer California Chrome was exported to
Japan's Arrow Stud ahead of the 2020 breeding season. Cilla's
dam was a $30,000 yearling purchase by the connections who
won 11 of her 19 career starts including nine stakes in Louisiana.
Sittin At the Bar has produced three stakes winners from just
four horses to race. Her 5-year-old daughter Club Card, a
$120,000 KEESEP yearling, was a close second in the GIII Chicago
S. in June before annexing the West Virginia Secretary of State S.
at Mountaineer last month. Sittin At the Bar did not produce a
foal in 2019 but had a Lord Nelson filly in 2020. She was barren
to Frosted in 2021 was but revisited that Darley inmate this past
season.
Leading sire Into Mischief, whose daughters are just beginning
to be old enough to be represented by horses of racing age, is
the broodmare sire of four black-type winners--three of them
are out of Sittin At the Bar, and Cilla is the first to make the
grade.

Going to Vegas secured a pace-pressing position despite a
wide draw, maintained a tactical advantage over her chief
market rival Dogtag at every pole and kicked home gamest of all
for a second career victory at graded level in Saturday's GII John
C. Mabee S. at Del Mar.
Ridden for a bit of pace by Flavien Prat from gate six in a
scratched-down field of seven, Going to Vegas was already
down into the two path by the time they hit the wire for the first
time and from there was able to track longshot leader Nasty
(Street Sense), owned like Dogtag by LNJ Foxwoods, through a
moderate pace for the opening four furlongs. Pouring the
pressure on as the field raced into the final five-sixteenths of a
mile, Going to Vegas gathered in Nasty at will approaching the
eighth pole, pinched a break and easily held sway to the wire.
Dogtag, three wide, but with cover through the middle furlongs,
had no choice but to take the overland passage into the stretch
and she could not summon the necessary late finish. Bodhicitta
was third ahead of multiple Brazilian Group 1 winner Fast Jet
Court (Brz) (Courtier), who flashed home from the tail to be a
creditable fourth in her U.S. debut.
Claimed for $50,000 out of a victory at Santa Anita just shy of
16 months ago, Going to Vegas halted a seven-race skid that
included four consecutive runner-up efforts with a 3 3/4-length
tally in the GIII Santa Ana S. over a mile and a quarter at Santa
Anita Mar. 27. An alibi-free fifth to Maxim Rate (Exchange Rate)
in the GI Gamely S. in Arcadia May 31, the bay was exiting a
popular 3 1/2-length allowance victory up going this course and
distance July 16.
"She was where she wants to be [second, stalking position]
from the start,@ said winning trainer Richard Baltas. AShe'll rate
now, she used to not rate. I'm very proud of the horse coming
back fairly quickly from the [allowance win] at the start of the
meet to win a mile-and-an-eighth graded stakes.@
Pedigree Notes:
One of five graded winners for Spendthrift's Goldencents,
Going to Vegas is inbred 5x4 to Storm Cat and is kin to the

Already one of seven Tattersalls October graduates to win aSaratoga stakes this meet, Public Sector landed his secondgraded stakes win in a row while providing his meet-leadingowner and trainer with another highlight. A debut winner here last August, Public Sector was second inthe GII Pilgrim S. downstate Oct. 3 before finishing a well-beaten12th in the GI Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf Nov. 6. He resurfacedto finish second to recent Queen's Plate S. hero Safe Conduct
(Bodemeister) in a Belmont optional claimer in May, and clearedhis '1X' condition over yielding ground June 4 before missing bya head in the Manila S. a month later. He was 9-10 when hebecame Chad Brown's sixth GII National Museum of Racing Hallof Fame S. winner Aug. 6, and was the public's pick once againhere. Breaking on top from his rail draw, the bay settled in along thehedge behind the pace as second choice Never Surprised foughtrestraint on the front end. Asked for a bit more after a :49.19half, Public Sector looked ready to pounce as he was tipped outheading for the stretch. Never Surprised shook off Like the King,but was immediately tackled by Public Sector over the top andhad no real response for that one. "I wanted to save ground, get a pocketed trip and see if hecould square off with Never Surprised, who I think is a really,really good horse,@ Brown said. A[Public Sector] came into therace as the favorite, but this is the best horse he=s faced, exceptin the Breeders= Cup when our horse wasn=t right. "I was really as curious as anyone to see how he would kick onwhen he squared off with this horse in the stretch and of course,we had the benefit of having some race fitness, while the otherhorse was coming off a layoff. I=m sure he got a lot out of that.I=m so proud of my horse and the trip Irad [Ortiz, Jr.] was able toexecute with him. My team really kept him in good form andkept developing him.@ The GI Hollywood Derby this fall at Santa Anita will likely bethe main objective for Public Sector going forward. AIt=s a little far away and this horse will have to run betweennow and then one time. I'm not sure exactly which race yet,@said Brown. AWhat we=re seeing with him and a lot of horses likehim is as he matures, he should be able to stretch out a little bit.He certainly looked good doing this and I certainly wouldn=t beafraid of a mile and an eighth in the Hollywood Derby. For thisyear, that=s as far as I=ll run him. Then down the road, we=ll see.@

Public Sector Pedigree Notes:
Public Sector is one of 22 graded/group winners for highly-
regarded Juddmonte stallon Kingman, who is also the sire of the
same connections' leading older turf horse and fellow Tatts
October grad Domestic Spending. Public Sector's dam is a half to
Italian highweight Toi Et Moi (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) and SW Moi
Meme (GB) (Teofilo {Ire}). Parle Moi's only foal since the winner
is a yearling colt by Golden Horn (GB).
Spinaway S. cont. from p1
Gun Runner was represented earlier in the meet by
GII Adirondack S. winner Wicked Halo and by GII Saratoga
Special runner-up Gunite. Across the country, his Pappacap won
the GII Best Pal S. at Del Mar.
AShe came out of Steve [Asmussen]=s parents= operation in
Laredo pretty highly touted,@ David Fiske said. AWe have some
pretty big expectations for her. We were grateful that [co-owner
Mike] Levinson let us partner up with her. We bought a few
other yearlings last year and since he had Echo Town, he asked
about her. We looked at her and got her as well.@
Jim Bakke's Girl with a Dream (Practical Joke) is another
juvenile by a freshman sire coming into the Spinaway off an
impressive debut victory. The Brad Cox trainee pulled away to a
6 3/4-length score doing five furlongs at Ellis Park July 24.
Pretty Birdie (Bird Song) carried the colors of the late Marylou
Whitney, for years synonymous with racing in Saratoga, to
victory in an emotional opening-day GIII Schuylerville S. July 15.
A debut winner at Churchill June 18, the gray filly will look to
double up on her Saratoga graded haul Sunday for trainer Norm
Casse.
Gold Square's Sue Ellen Mishkin (Mohaymen) jumps to the
graded ranks after romping to a 7 1/4-length debut score going
six furlongs versus state-bred foes in her Aug. 13 unveiling.
ELM DRIVE, EDA FACE OFF AGAIN IN DEL
MAR DEBUTANTE Little Red Feather Racing's Elm Drive (Mohaymen) and Baoma
Corporation's Eda (Munnings), who were separated by just a
head after battling the length of the stretch in the GIII Sorrento
S. Aug. 6, renew their rivalry in the GI TVG Del Mar Debutante
Sunday. Elm Drive, trained by Phil D'Amato, romped by eight
lengths in her five-furlong debut at Los Alamitos June 26 and
refused to let Eda by when winning the six-furlong Sorrento.
Eda has yet to finish in front in her two-race career. The Bob
Baffert trainee inherited the victory via disqualification after
finishing a nose runner-up in her June 19 debut and couldn't get
by a determined Elm Drive in the Sorrento.
Michael Lund Petersen, who enjoyed Grade I success at
Saratoga last weekend when his champion Gamine (Into
Mischief) won the GI Ballerina S., will look to double up on the
West Coast when Grace Adler (Curlin) goes postward Sunday at
Del Mar. Co-owned with Willow Grace Farm and trained by
Baffert, the $700,000 Fasig-Tipton Saratoga purchase battled to
a 3/4-length debut score going five furlongs at Del Mar July 31.
She enters the seven-furlong Debutante off six-furlong drills
Aug. 23 and Aug. 30.
Baffert has won the last two runnings of the Debutante, with
Bast in 2019 and Princess Noor in 2020, and has won the race
nine times since 1995.

LUCRATIVE KENTUCKY DOWNS MEET OPENS
SUNDAY
By Mike Kane
FRANKLIN, Ky. - With huge purses offered during a mighty
short season all run over a distinctive European-style turf
course, the FanDuel Meet at Kentucky Downs has emerged as a
gem of American racing.
It's different, to be sure. Once an obscure little meet quietly
contested at a track called Dueling Grounds in a small town on
the border with Tennessee, much closer to Nashville than
Kentucky's big cities, Louisville and Lexington, it has flourished,
gotten noticed and embraced. This year it features six graded
stakes, three of them with $1,000,000 purses. Two of them are
part of the Sept. 11 program with five graded stakes card and
are Breeders' Cup "Win and You're In" races that will be
broadcast live on Sept. 11 on NBC.
The season opens Sunday and continues with the second
program on Labor Day. Following an off day Tuesday, the meet
rolls on with programs Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday and
Sunday over the undulating 1 5/16 miles course. Post time is
12:20 p.m. Central.
"All signs point to a spectacular meet," said Ted Nicholson,
Kentucky Downs's Vice President for Racing. "We think jockeys
will be thrilled with the extensive renovation to our turf course.
We know horseplayers love our full fields and large betting
pools. For the final four days, Kentucky Downs will be the center
of American racing, and we look forward to putting on an
outstanding show."
Horsemen know all about the purse money available, the
highest daily figures in North America, and fill the entry box for
the six-day season contested over eight days.
"The most difficult thing about Kentucky Downs is getting in
the races," trainer Al Stall Jr. said.
Full Fields
Reacting to the demand this year, track officials have split a
pair of races. When there were 31 entries for a maiden special
weight race for 2-year-old fillies on opening day, it was divided
into two full 12-horses divisions, with a total of seven on
also-eligible lists, and bumped the program from 10 to 11 races.
The $400,000 listed TVG S. on Wednesday drew 21 entries and
it was split into two divisions, both with $400,000 purses.
Horseplayers relish the large fields, the lowest blended
takeout rates in America and big payouts. In 2020, with no fans
on track, the all-sources handle for the first six-day meeting was
$59,828,441.
Track officials market Kentucky Downs as a bettors' paradise.
The $2 win payoff average of $16.73 keyed strong returns in
exotic wagers. According to the track stats, last year's average
return for a $1 exacta was $65.32, the $1 double average
payout was $75.99, the 50-cent trifecta average was $269.20,
the 50-cent Pick 3 averaged $374.06, the 50-cent Pick 4 average
payoff was $3,295.88 and the average payout for the 50-cent
Pick 5 was $23,076.
Ken Kirchner, the Director Wagering Development at Kentucky
Downs, spent many years in that role with the Breeders' Cup. He
said the meet is distinct in America because its large fields are
made up of horses from across the country.
"One of the highlights for handicappers and for fans is that you
get this amalgamation of horses from different racing circuits
around the country that you normally only get at a meet like the
Breeders' Cup," Kirchner said. "When you have more than
$2 million a day in purses, not only are your stakes races this mix
of New York, Kentucky, Florida, California and other horses, you
have that in the maiden and allowance races across the board.
It's just a fascinating exercise for the handicapper to say, 'Gosh, I
can find great value every single race of this meet.'"
Opening Day Purses average $218,890
In the decade since the pari-mutuel electronic gaming
machines, now called Historical Horse Racing (HHR), were
approved to fund purses at the track, the daily average purse
has skyrocketed from a nondescript $25,600 in 2011. The
average purse for the 11 races on opening day is $218,890.
Earlier this year, the HHR program survived a serious challenge
in the Kentucky legislature to the legality of the 3,625 machines
in the state. If the HHR pari-mutuel gaming bill had not passed in
the legislature, the track likely would have closed.
The three $1 million races are part of the $10 million that is
available in the 16 stakes scheduled during the meet. Including
that stakes money, purses total $15,259,400. The is a notable
jump from the $11.69 million in purses in 2020. The meet's
overnight races--maiden, allowance and claiming--are scheduled
to average $876,000 a day. Cont. p15

Kentucky Downs cont.
On Aug. 9, the track announced an eight percent increase in
the purses for non-stakes races, except the four $100,000
starter allowances that are qualifiers for the Claiming Crown at
Gulfstream Park in December. Maiden special weight races for
Kentucky-breds carry a purse of $135,000; first-level allowance
races $145,800 and second-level allowance races $156,600. By
comparison, the maiden and first-level allowance purses are
about double the purses Sunday for similar conditions at Del
Mar, while the maiden special weight purses at Saratoga are
$100,000 and the allowance purses are $103,000 and $105,000.
Two-time Grade I winner Got Stormy (Get Stormy) is the
headliner in the six-furlong $1 million FanDuel Turf Sprint where
she will face males again. She earned her second win over males
in the GI Fourstardave S. on Aug. 14. No filly or mare has won
the Turf Sprint, which was first run in 1998.
Got Stormy has won 12 of 30 starts, with five seconds and
three thirds, and $2,398,403 in purse earnings. In addition to
her Fourstardave victories, Got Stormy has finished second four
times against males in Grade I stakes in New York, California and
Canada.
In the Turf Sprint she is expected to face the Bill Mott-trained
Casa Creed (Jimmy Creed) in third consecutive race. Casa Creed
picked up his first Grade I victory in the Jaipur on June 5 while
Got Stormy was fifth. Got Stormy surprised in the Fourstardave
at 12-1 and Casa Creed was third.
Donegal Racing's Arklow (Arch) will try to become the first
three-time winner of the $1 million Calumet Turf Cup. He won
the race in 2018 and 2020 and was second in 2019. Arklow is
expected to face Calumet Farm's Grade I winner Channel Cat
(English Channel) and the 2019 winner Zulu Alpha (Street Cry
{Ire}).
Bloom Racing's veteran Snapper Sinclair (City Zip) will race at
the track for the fourth time when he starts in a division of the
TVG S. on Wednesday. He has won two stakes at the track and
last year finished second in the race now called the Mint Million
Mile.
"We always look forward to-actually point our stable to-this
boutique yet premium meeting at Kentucky Downs, said owner
Jeff Bloom. "It's unique and charming and it doesn't hurt that
that it provides incredibly lucrative purses."
Steve Sherack and Brian DiDonato give their best bet for each
day of racing during the FanDuel Meet at Kentucky Downs. $100
Win/Place format; highest bankroll at the end wins.
Steve Sherack: Race 2 - Don't think we'll see anything near the
20-1 morning-line quote, but Gamble's Orb can certainly run
this field off their heels at a price in her grass debut. She flashed
big speed in her first two goes in the Gulfstream slop, dueling
and finishing a close second June 25, then dueling and tiring to a
well-beaten third July 23. Her dam Forest Gamble (Forest
Wildcat) was a razor sharp winner in her lone career start over
the Woodbine synthetic, and she has produced a pair of stakes
winners over that surface as well. Orb, sire of grassy P. G.
Johnson S. winner Orbolution, is certainly capable of siring a turf
runner and Gamble's Orb blew out three furlongs over the Palm
Meadows turf in :34 3/5 (1/4) Aug. 24. Trainer Joe Orseno
shipped in from his South Florida base to capture last year's GIII
Runhappy Turf Sprint S. with Imprimis. Selection: #2 Gamble's
Orb (20-1).Cont. p16

Turf Pick of the Day cont.
Brian DiDonato: Race 6 - The 2-year-old maiden races are some
of the most interesting and typically wide-open events at
Kentucky Downs, and there were several babies who caught my
eye on this opening day card. I'll make Go Bali Go my play. He
ran a sneaky good race first out after getting squeezed out at
the start and making a middle move behind a very slow pace.
The fifth-place run when switching to the dirt can be
excused--he dueled through a pace rated fast that day on a
surface he probably doesn't prefer. His dam was dramatically
better on grass and her other progeny have leaned that way too.
Freshman sire Bal a Bali (Brz) was also a turf horse, and his early
runners have seemed turfy for the most part as well. I'm hoping
for a bit better than the 8-1 morning line, and think Go Bali Go
has a solid shot to put it all together this time around. Selection:
#4 Go Bali Go (8-1).
KY DOWNS & NYRA REACH SIMULCAST

MULTI-MILLION DOLLAR DEEP IMPACT COLT
DEBUTS VICTORIOUSLY by Alan Carasso
Dobune (Jpn) (Deep Impact {Jpn}), who cost new owner
Susumu Fujita a whopping -517.1 million (about US$4.7 million)
at the Chiba 2-Year-Old Sale this past May, overcame a wide
gate and belied his inexperience with a two-length debut victory
in a newcomers' event going 1500 meters (about 7 1/2 furlongs)
on turf at Sapporo Racecourse Saturday afternoon.
Off as the 17-10 favorite after trading at odds-on for the
majority of the wagering, Dobune more or less walked out of
gate 11 and was allowed to find his footing by Yutaka Take, who
settled the colt in the latter third of the 12-horse field. Asked to
improve his position about five wide on the turn, Dobune drifted
out a bit while rallying seven deep into the straight, gathered in
Speed Glamour (Into Mischief) with a little less than a furlong to
race and was punched out hands-and-heels to score with
relative ease (video).
Among the last handful of horses by the legendary Deep
Impact, who passed away in the summer of 2019, Dobune was
bred by Shadai Farm and is the fourth foal out of Premier Steps
(Ire) (Footstepsinthesand {GB}), Group 3-placed in England and
France before winning the 2013 Sweetest Chant S. when trained
by Chad Brown for Swift Thoroughbreds, Vintage
Thoroughbreds, Michael Kisber and Bradley Thoroughbreds. She
was third in the 2014 GIII Wilshire S. for trainer Tom Proctor and
was acquired by Shadai for $400,000 at the 2015 Keeneland
January Sale. Cont. p17
TDN HEADLINE NEWS • PAGE 17 OF 17 • THETDN.COM SUNDAY • SEPTEMBER 5, 2021
Dobune cont.
Deep Impact's current crop of juveniles also includes
Command Line (Jpn), a son of GISW Condo Commando (Tiz
Wonderful), who was accorded 'TDN Rising Star' status off a
facile debut defeat of Conch Pearl (American Pharoah) in early
June. The latter, subsequently third on the turf, returned to
break her maiden by eight lengths when trying the dirt for the
first time at Kokura Racecourse. The late Shadai stallion was also
responsible for heavily backed debut winner Candescent (Jpn)
Saturday at Niigata.
Dobune would be a candidate for races like next month's
G2 Saudi Arabia Royal Cup (1600mT) at Toyko and farther down
the road, the G1 Asahi Hai Futurity (1600mT) or the G1 Hopeful
S. (2000mT).

WAR FRONT COLT ULTRA-IMPRESSIVE IN
'TDN RISING STAR' DEBUT AT THE SPA
Annapolis (c, 2, War Front--My Miss Sophia, by Unbridled's
Song) was backed with supreme confidence as the 6-5 favorite
in a seemingly wide-open, two-turn grass maiden special weight
at the Spa Saturday, and he ran to the money with an
ultra-impressive 'TDN Rising Star' debut performance.
The Ramona Bass homebred's worktab featured a trio of
visually impressive drills over the Oklahoma training turf for Hall
of Famer Todd Pletcher, including a four-furlong spin in :50 2/5
(24/74) around the dogs Aug. 8.
He raced toward the back in eighth in between horses and
under some cover through an opening quarter in :24.33 and a
half mile in :49.68. The bay began to advance beneath Irad Ortiz,
Jr. entering the far turn, tipped out four wide midway around
the bend and powered home in style down the stretch to win
going away by 4 1/2 lengths. Annapolis covered his final five-
sixteenths of a mile in a sharp :28.71, according to DRF
Formulator. Nyquest Nix (Nyquist) was second.
Annapolis is the 18th 'Rising Star' for leading sire War Front.
The War Front/Unbridled's Song cross is also responsible for
GI Flower Bowl S. heroine Civil Union.
"He had a great turn of foot, kept going to the wire and
galloped out nicely," Pletcher said in the winner's circle on
Saratoga Live. "It was pretty much everything you could hope
for in a debut."
Bloodstock agent Steve Young went to $4 million for his GSW
& MGISP dam My Miss Sophia (Unbridled's Song) with the colt in
utero at KEENOV in 2018. That price was second only to the
$4.2-million Lady Eli (Divine Park). The 2014 GII Gazelle S.
winner and GI Kentucky Oaks runner-up, a half-sister to GI
Florida Derby hero Materiality (Afleet Alex), is already the dam
of Annapolis's 3-year-old full-sister Nevisian Sunrise, third in the
Wild Applause S. in June. This is also the family of MGSW/GISP
Eye of the Tiger (American Chance) and GISWs Afleet Express
(Afleet Alex) and Embellish the Lace (Super Saver). My Miss
Sophia produced a full brother to Annapolis this year.

QUALITY ROAD OBS APRIL TOPPER LIVES UP
TO HYPE, EARNS 'RISING STARDOM'
Corniche (c, 2, Quality Road--Wasted Tears, by Najran), the
$1.5-million OBS April topper earlier this spring, lived up to his
lofty reputation with a 'TDN Rising Star' debut performance for
Bob Baffert at Del Mar Saturday evening. Cont. p2

Corniche cont.
The 1-2 favorite caught a flyer beneath Hall of Famer Mike
Smith and cleared the field from his wide draw in post 10. He led
them comfortably through early fractions of :21.72 and :45.13,
kicked for home in complete control and cruised under the wire
after a shake of the reins to a facile 4 1/4-length victory.
Apprehend (Arrogate) was second.
The final time for 5 1/2 furlongs was a sharp 1:03.01. Corniche
becomes the 10th 'Rising Star' for Quality Road.
The son of six-time GSW and GI Matriarch S. runner-up
Wasted Tears (Najran) was led out unsold on a bid of $385,000
at KEESEP last year, but turned in a smooth sales breeze in
:10 flat to become one of two horses to eclipse the seven-figure
barrier in Ocala.
Wasted Tears, also responsible for the late, stakes-placed
Coffee Crush (Medaglia d'Oro), had a filly by Mendelssohn in
2020.
Speedway Stables and Baffert also teamed up for a win with
Quality Road's 'Rising Star' Roadster in the 2019 GI Santa Anita
Derby and a runner-up finish in the GI Malibu S.

KENDALL (Curlin) makes her first trip to the post in this event on
the second to last day of the Saratoga meet. Out of SP Issues
(Awesome Again), the $335,000 FTKSEL buy is a half-sister to
champion and five-time Grade I winner Accelerate (Lookin at

Amarish (Scat Daddy). Bill Mott also saddles a first timer with a
big pedigree in Summer Wind homebred Handbelle (Tapit).
Summer Wind's Jane Lyon went to $800,000 for Amazing Belle
(Midnight Lute) with this filly in utero at the 2018 FTKNOV sale.
Amazing Belle is a daughter of MGSW Queenie Belle
(Bertrando), who is also the dam of GI Breeders' Cup Ladies
Classic heroine Unrivaled Belle (Unbridled's Song). That
millionaire mare topped the 2016 KEENOV sale when bringing
$3.8 million from Mandy Pope's Whisper Hill Farm. She was
carrying a full-sibling to her two-time champion daughter
Unique Bella (Tapit) at the time. The latter's full-brother
Vanishing Point was runner-up in a 2000-meter turf allowance

FLIGHTLINE RETURNS AT DEL MAR8th-DMR, $72K, Opt. Clm. ($40K), 3yo/up, 6f, 8:00 p.m.
'TDN Rising Star' FLIGHTLINE (Tapit) makes his long awaited
second start Sunday while facing older at Del Mar. The $1-
million FTSAUG buy dazzled the racing world when running
away to a 13 1/4-length tour de force in his six-panel debut at
Santa Anita Apr. 24, earning a gaudy 105 Beyer Speed Figure.
The bay was originally being aimed for a race at the start of the
Del Mar meet, but was thrown off course by a foot abscess and
instead landed here. He has been working well in preparation
for this first try against winners, most recently breezing five
furlongs in :59 3/5 Aug. 30 (3/44). Bred by Jane Lyon's Summer
Wind Farm, which retained a piece of the colt, Flightline is out of
GSW & MGISP Feathered (Indian Charlie), who Lyon acquired for
$2.35 million in foal to War Front at the 2016 KEENOV sale.

Value Proposition | Bill Denver
Value Proposition had been knocking at the door of a black-
type win and broke through in style Saturday as the heavy
favorite in a field scratched down to four in the Red Bank S.
Racing off the fence, the dark bay was perched in third through
a :24.87 first quarter and sat just off the leaders through a
:49.15 half-mile. Moving up to press pacesetting Proven
Strategies on the backstretch, Value Proposition dispatched that
foe in early stretch and cruised home an easy winner.
AI just took a hold of him early on,@ said winning jockey Paco
Lopez, after riding his sixth winner of the day. AHe was running
so smoothly the whole way. When we got to the three-eighths
pole I moved him into position to strike and in the lane he just
cruised home. He was much the best and I rode him that way.@
Third in the Elusive Quality S. at Belmont Apr. 24, Value
Proposition captured an optional claimer there next out June 6.
A close second in Saratoga's GIII Forbidden Apple S. July 16, he
checked in third last out in that venue's Lure S. Aug. 7.
Value Proposition is the 150th black-type winner for his sire
Dansili. The winner is a half to English and French highweight
Speedy Boarding and the dam of MGSW Dashing Willooughby
(GB) (Nathaniel {Ire}). Dash to the Front is also the dam of an
unraced juvenile colt named Tuxedo Junction (GB) (Iffraj {GB})

Connie Swingle led home a one-two for owner/breeder Nick
Alexander, easily taking Friday's Generous Portion S. at Del Mar.
Last to load, the homebred was one of the first out of the stalls
and raced close up from the three path as they hit the turn.
Urged along at the five-sixteenths, Connie Swingle raced to the
front at the eighth pole and was in no danger whatsoever as her
stablemate Carmen Miranda rounded out the exacta.
A debut second after taking a bump at the break and racing a
bit greenly in her Los Alamitos unveiling July 2, Connie Swingle
was exiting a dominating 7 1/2-length defeat of Big Novel in an

Joker Boy | Benoit
Joker Boy took his record to two-for-two and became the
second black-type winner for his freshman sire (by Into
Mischief) with a decisive score in the Generous Portion S. at Del
Mar.
Rallying to win at first asking in a state-bred event here Aug. 7,
he was let go at 8-1 in this step up in class. Showing good early
speed, the dark bay contested the pace through a swift first
quarter in :22.03. Taking control, Joker Boy clocked a :45.29
half-mile and skipped clear in the lane for a decisive score.
"After he won we thought of this race,@ said winning trainer
Brian Koriner. AWe thought he might be good enough to go in
the [GI Runhappy Del Mar] Futurity. But then you've got Bob
Baffert freaks in there so we opted for the easier spot and it
worked out. Now on Breeders' Cup Day they have a Cal-bred
race [Golden State Juvenile S.] and that will be next. It should be
no problem for him."
Bandora did not have a foal in 2020, but delivered a Palace
Malice colt in 2021 and was bred back to Practical Joke. Click for

RISKY MISCHIEF (f, 4, Into Mischief--Risky Rachel {MSW,
$493,736}, by Limehouse) won a state-bred optional claimer on
the grass at Belmont Oct. 22 and was third next out in the grassy
Autumn Days S. at Aqueduct Nov. 29. Coming up a half-length
short over this course and distance Aug. 7, she was heavily
favored at 3-5 to go one better here. Racing off the fence in
fourth, the Empire-bred ranged up four wide in the lane and
surged to the front in the final sixteenth to win by 3/4 of a
length over Harper's In Charge (Malibu Moon). MSW Risky
Rachel's first foal Yale (Scat Daddy) brought a $1 million at the

over a fast strip there when in for a $62,000 tag in an allowance
optional claimer June 26, his final start for trainer Charles L.
Frock and original owner Gerald L. Burns. Privately purchased by
these connections out of that race, the gelding resurfaced at the
Spa July 17 and won a $50,000 starter allowance by 1 1/4
lengths as the 3-2 crowd=s pick. Sent off at 6-1 in this first try
beyond six furlongs, Baby Yoda pressed the pace in second as 2-
1 shot Ducale (Twirling Candy) sped an opening quarter in
:21.54. He drew even through a half mile in :44.08 as that foe
began to wilt and stormed home to win by 4 1/4 lengths in a
very sharp time. Olympiad (Speightstown) was second, with
Ducale another six lengths back in third. Out of a half-sister to

DQ. Adding blinkers for this switch back to the synthetic, the 5-1
shot was slowest away from his inside post and settled on the
fence with just one horse beat. Advancing up the fence on the
backside, the gray switched out three wide in the lane and got
up late for a neck success. Aim for the Sky (Sky Mesa) completed
the exacta. The winner is a half to Wild Medagliad'oro (Medaglia

Goddess was taken back to a rail-hugging third as Miss Bella Ciao
(Tapit) led Basilia (Cinco Charlie) through a :24.95 quarter. Still in
a close-up third through a :50.60 half, Queen Goddess didn't
bite as favored Moraz (Empire Maker) charged at Miss Bella Ciao
and the tempo picked up dramatically approaching the five-
sixteenths. Swung out five wide turning for home as Moraz held
a slight edge over Miss Bella Ciao, Queen Goddess collared the
front-runners midstretch, battled three wide late and was a
neck best at the wire over Miss Bella Ciao with the favorite
third. Royal Story is also responsible for a juvenile filly by Mailbu

extra 110 yards Aug. 7. Restrained early, but still pulling a bit
first time through the stretch, the 11-10 favorite looked to settle
better one out and one back at they raced into the second turn.
Under a long hold and unhurried from fourth down the
backstretch, England's Rose got the hurry-up a little less than
three furlongs from home. She carried a full head of steam three
wide into the lane, took command and galloped home a

next out in a nine-panel event on the main track here July 28, he
was run down late and forced to settle for a head second behind
the blue-blooded Vindictive (Uncle Mo), who came back to win

KOKO'S KANDY (g, 4, Candy Ride {Arg}--Daring Reality {SW &
GSP, $272,100}, by Include) had finished in front of just three of
23 rivals in his three previous trips to the races and was having
his first run since finishing well down the field in a Santa Anita
turf maiden in March 2020. Racing as a first-time gelding and off
as the 45-1 second-longest price on the board with Jessica Pyfer
claiming five pounds, Koko's Kandy was ridden along and was
speedy enough to get into fourth position, with a trio of leaders
in front of him, prior to the turn. Traveling well on the bend,
Koko's Candy was pulled into the three path in upper stretch,
lugged in with less than a furlong to race and edged clear to
cause the boilover. Daring Reality is the dam of the once-raced
American Reality (American Freedom), a yearling Honor Code
colt and a filly foal by Connect. She most recently visited Army
Mule. Sales history: $235,000 RNA Ylg '18 KEESEP. Lifetime

SO I'M TOLD (g, 2, Square Eddie--Bas, by Flower Alley), a 67-10
gamble making his career debut, was awkwardly into stride from
the inside gate, but settled in the box seat under go-to rider
Mario Gutierrez through the middle stages. Glued to the rail for
the run around the second turn, the Reddam runn was forced to
steady off heels leaving the five-sixteenths marker, veered out
under a left-handed stick in deep stretch, but clawed his way to
the front late to score by 3/4 of a length. Bas is the dam of a
yearling colt by this owner's Pavel and was most recently bred to
Mrazek. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $42,000. Click for the

BOSSY HOLIDAY (c, 2, Ami's Holiday--Bossy Saratoga, by Street

for trainer Joe Orseno June 26 and was subsequently
transferred to Josie Carroll. Given a 9-2 chance in this switch to
the synthetic in his home country, the dark bay seized the early
advantage, ticking off respectable fractions and kept on going to
win by 2 1/2 lengths. Hunt Master (Hunters Bay) filled the place
spot. Bossy Saratoga is also responsible for a yearling colt by
Ami's Holiday and a 2021 filly by Goldencents. She was bred

surfaces and at varying distances, most recently filling that spot
in a muddy two-turn off-the-turf test at Pimlico Aug. 1. Saving
ground in mid-pack, the 5-1 shot was well back off the pace
through a half-mile in :48.87. Three wide turning for home, the
$450,000 FTSAUG buy rallied in the lane, running down loose
leader Endless Front (War Front) for a half-length score. Elle
Sueno is a daughter of Southern Equine's GI Del Mar Debutante

FIRE ON TIME (f, 3, Not This Time--Sapphire Spitfire, by
Awesome Again) fired a five-furlong bullet over this strip
Aug. 23 and was sent off the 12-5 favorite to open her account
at this belated first time of asking. Bearing the same colors as
her sire, who broke his maiden by a whopping 10 lengths at the
Peapatch second time out five years ago, Fire On Time raced in a
comfortable second stalking pacesetting Catalan (Street Boss)
before heading that one at the quarter pole. Put to a left-
handed stick a furlong from home, the bay responded and was
taken in hand late. From the family of undefeated and stakes-
winning 'TDN Rising Star' Carribean Caper (Speightstown), Fire
On Time has a 2-year-old full-sister named Alarm Clock and a
yearling half-sister by Mo Town. Sapphire Spitfire was most

AMICHE (f, 3, Malibu Moon--Lady Melesi {MSW & GISP,

pair of starts on dirt last season, but turned things around in a
big way when just failing to wire a local 8 1/2-furlong maiden in
her turf debut July 9. Kicked straight into the lead from gate one
by Brian Hernandez, Jr., Amiche controlled the pace while
comfortably in hand, met two- and three-wide challenges at the
quarter pole and was ridden out to 'don' cap and gown. Amiche
is a half-sister to Liberated (Curlin), GSP, $169,808; Seruni (Saint

pace through fractions of :21.74 and :44.92. In front turning for

MAC'S TIME (c, 2, Not This Time--Free Money {SP}, by Street
Sense) finished fifth in his unveiling going a furlong shorter here
Aug. 8 and was overlooked at 8-1 this time around. Slipping up
the fence to contest the pace early, he stuck his head in front as
the first quarter went in a snappy :22.33. Dueling a pair of rivals
through a :45.10 half-mile, the homebred turned for home in
front and held off a determined Ignitis (Nyquist) to win by a half-
length. SP Free Money produced a full-sister to the winner in
2020 and had a colt by the connections' Grade I-winning Brody's
Cause in 2021. She was bred back to Honor A. P. Free Money is a

LITTLE VIC (c, 2, Practical Joke--Rock and Glory {MSW,
$244,018}, by Rock Hard Ten) breezed a half-mile in :46 4/5
(2/104) over this strip on Aug. 28 and was 5-2 to get off the
mark in this career bow. Hustled up to contest the pace over the
sloppy surface, the bay had established a one-length lead
through an opening quarter in :22.68. His advantage had grown
to three lengths in upper stretch, with only favored
Superstitieux (Upstart) trying to make a race of it in the lane, but
Little Vic had a 3 1/2 length cushion at the wire. The 12th winner
for his freshman sire (by Into Mischief), Little Vic is a half-
brother to a yearling filly by West Coast and a weanling Flatter
colt. Rock and Glory, who won several stakes races in Canada, is
the best foal of her dam, the GII Hollywood Breeders= Cup Oaks
heroine Brooke=s Halo (Southern Halo). That trend continues, as
third dam Salty Lady (Salt Lake), runner-up in the GIII Honey Bee
H., did not produce any other black-type horses except for

and never looked back. She earned her diploma by five lengths

Slightly in front while drifting out to the four path turning for
home, Fascinated maintained a narrow advantage in early
stretch, however, Saint Ives drifted outward, slightly brushing
with Fascinated. Carrying the most forward momentum late,
Saint Ives outlasted Fascinated by a head, but after a post-race
review by stewards, Saint Ives was demoted to second behind
eventual winner Fascinated. Roll Your Eyes dropped an Army

Emaraaty Ana (right) defeats Starman | Racingfotos.com
EMARAATY ANA EDGESSTARMAN IN CUP THRILLER
It was tight at the end of Saturday=s G1 Betfair Sprint Cup at
Haydock, with Andrea Atzeni celebrating a black-type treble on
the day on Sheikh Mohammed Obaid Al Maktoum=s Emaraaty
Ana (GB) (Shamardal) who denied Starman (GB) (Dutch Art
{GB}) in a photo.
Revived of late, the 5-year-old who had been second in the
five-furlong G1 Nunthorpe S. at York Aug. 20 tanked along early
off the pace but had plenty left to take over approaching the
final furlong. Clinging on late as the even-money favourite found
his stride under a Tom Marquand drive, the line came in time for
the 11-1 shot who held a short-head verdict there, with Chil Chil
(GB) (Exceed and Excel {Aus}) 3/4 of a length away in third.
AHe deserves it--we=ve started riding him patiently and the
horse has come alive for doing that,@ trainer Kevin Ryan said.
AI=ve had huge faith in the horse and I=m delighted he=s done it.
He=s as good a horse as I=ve trained--his work in a morning is
brilliant and all my team at home have done a great job.@
Emaraaty Ana=s future was already bright as he landed York=s
G2 Gimcrack S. three years ago, but after a flirtation with the
mile Classics the following spring, he gradually slid into relative
obscurity. By the time the decision was made to geld following
his last-of-eight in the G1 Nunthorpe S. last August, the bay was
already something of a forgotten horse but on his return this
year had a clean slate to work from. Cont. p2
NEW NAME, SAME ETHOS FOR SOMERVILLE
SALE By Kelsey Riley
The bloodstock sales market proved extraordinarily resilient in
the face of the global pandemic last year, and one of the true
highlights was the Tattersalls Ascot Yearling Sale staged for the
first time at Park Paddocks. A move from the sale=s traditional
home at Ascot Racecourse that was necessitated by public
health restrictions appeared a truly inspired one at the close of
trade last Sept. 7, when 81% of the 250 youngsters offered
changed hands for an average of 11,533gns that was up 13% on
the year prior. Making that rise all the more extraordinary was
the fact that the catalogue was up 56% in size due to the switch
to the larger venue. The Tattersalls Ascot Yearling Sale staged at
Park Paddocks grossed 2,341,350gns, while the median was
likewise up 5% to 8,000gns. Cont. p12
TDN EUROPE • PAGE 2 OF 21 • THETDN.COM SUNDAY • 5 SEPTEMBER 2021
G1 Betfair Sprint Cup Cont. from p1
Positive tactics, which had been employed in the 2019 G1
2000 Guineas, were again used for his first five starts this term
beginning with an underwhelming second in Doncaster=s Listed
Cammidge Trophy Mar. 27. Third in Newmarket=s G3 Abernant
S. Apr. 15, he was dropped from six furlongs to five for the G3
Palace House S. at Newmarket May 1 but the result was the
same as he wound up at the bottom of the trifecta once again
before trailing in seventh and 11th behind Starman in York=s G2
Duke of York S. May 12 and in the G1 July Cup at Newmarket
July 10.
It was only when connections opted to stop trying to force the
issue and give him a chance in a five-furlong Hamilton conditions
race at the end of last month that the real Emaraaty Ana
stepped forward on the slick summer surface he needs. Visibly
revitalised by the switch to hold-up tactics and a soaring sense
of belief, he got closest to the flying Winter Power (Ire) (Bungle
Inthejungle {GB}) in the Nunthorpe with the likes of Dragon
Symbol (GB) (Cable Bay {Ire}) and Suesa (Ire) (Night of Thunder
{Ire}) behind so it was a surprise to see double-figure odds freely
available here.
Still tending to over-race despite the customary generosity of
Art Power (Ire) (Dark Angel {Ire}) up ahead and the more
immediate target of last year=s G1 Middle Park S. hero
Supremacy (Ire) (Mehmas {Ire}), he was able to capitalise on
Starman=s Aflat spot@ to get first run on the favourite and get to
the post in the nick of time.
AHe was a great 2-year-old and he lost his way a little bit.
Sheikh Mohammed Obaid has been very patient,@ Kevin Ryan
said. AWe were riding him wrong. This is his trip. Last year he
was a little bit disappointing, but he has come back to this level
and I=ve had every belief in this horse. I always thought he would
get back to the top level. I would say we would go for the
Breeders= Cup. I can=t see why not, as he would be tailor-made
for it as they would go a fast pace on fast ground.@
Atzeni, who had earlier partnered the exciting juvenile Triple
Time (Ire) (Frankel {GB}) to win the Listed Ascendant S. for these
connections before doubling up on the G3 Superior Mile winner
Artistic Rifles (Ire) (War Command), was ending a relative
drought at this level. AHe=s a horse that everyone kept faith with
throughout his career and I can=t tell you what it means to me to
win another Group 1, it=s been a couple of years since the last
one,@ he said. AThings can go a bit quiet, but it=s all about the
horses and I had a very good one underneath me here. He is a
horse that we usually ride fairly forward, but as he ran so well in
the Nunthorpe giving him a chance we wanted to do the same.
He travelled like the best horse in the race and when I let him
down he picked up good. To be fair to the horse, when the
second horse came to him he found a little bit more and held
on.@ Cont. p3

G1 Betfair Sprint Cup Cont.
Starman=s trainer Ed Walker said, AThere are no excuses, it=s
disappointing.@
Pedigree Notes Given that Emaraaty Ana=s dam Spirit of Dubai (Ire) (Cape
Cross {Ire}) signed off her career with success in the 12-furlong
Listed Princess Royal S., it is no surprise that Kevin Ryan had the
Guineas in mind but this is clearly a runner who is defying his
pedigree. Spirit of Dubai is kin to another middle-distance
performer in the G3 Prix Corrida and G3 Prix de Flore winner
and stakes producer Trumbaka (Ire) (In the Wings {GB}), while
this is the family of the G3 Prix Cleopatre winner Alexandrie (Val
de l=Orne {Fr}). She is the dam of five black-type winners headed
by the G1 Prix du Jockey Club-placed sire Poliglote (GB) (Sadler=s
Wells) and is also the second dam of the GI Eddie Read H. scorer
Special Ring (Nureyev). Spirit of Dubai=s as-yet unnamed
2-year-old filly by Ribchester (Ire) was bought by Nigel Tinkler
Racing and Jamie Piggott for 140,000gns at the Tattersalls
October Yearling Sale Book 1.

G2 T Von Zastrow Stutenpreis Cont.
Successful on debut over 10 furlongs at Compiegne June 26
before running third in conditions events at Chantilly July 15 and
at Clairefontaine Aug. 11, the i110,000 Arqana Deauville
August Sale purchase was anchored towards the rear of mid-
division early by Alexander Pietsch. Taking the shortest route to
the line as the field turned for home, the 12-1 shot headed the
G1 Preis der Diana runner-up Isfahani (Ger) (Isfahan {Ger})
approaching the final furlong and stayed on strongly to score by
1 1/2 lengths from Walkaway (Ger) (Adlerflug {Ger}) who
denied Isfahani by a nose.
AIt was not easy to relate Waldbiene=s form in France to here,
but she was always behind better horses so we decided to give it
a go and it worked out really well,@ trainer Waldemar Hickst
said. AI am very happy for her owners, who sadly could not be
here today.@
Pedigree Notes Waldbiene is out of the G2 Diana-Trial runner-up Waldjagd
(GB) (Observatory), making her a half-sister to the useful listed
scorer Urwald (GB) (Le Havre {Ire}). The second dam Wurftaube
(Ger) (Acatenango {Ger}) captured four pattern races, with her
runaway victory in the G2 Deutsches St Leger the pinnacle,
before proving an even better producer. Her G1 Deutsches
Derby-winning son Waldpark (Ger) (Dubawi {Ire}) is the pick of
her immediate progeny, while she is the ancestress of the G1
Prix de l=Arc de Triomphe hero Waldgeist (GB) (Galileo {Ire}), the
G1 St Leger hero Masked Marvel (GB) (Montjeu {Ire}), the G3
Hackwood S. winner Waldpfad (Ger) (Shamardal) and this year=s
G3 Gordon Richards S. scorer Waldkonig (GB) (Kingman {GB}).
Also connected to the GI Man O=War S. hero Wake Forest (Ger)
(Sir Percy {GB}) and the G1 Criterium de Saint-Cloud winner
Wonderment (Ire) (Camelot {GB}), Waldjagd=s unraced
2-year-old colt by Almanzor (Fr) is named Funding Gap (Ire).

Kitty Marion | Baden Galopp/Marc Ruhl
GOLDENE PEITSCHE GLORY FOR KITTY
MARION Further boosting the credibility of the Spanish racing scene,
Kitty Marion (GB) (Iffraaj {GB}) provided a watershed moment
on Saturday when upsetting the home team in the G3 Goldene
Peitsche at Baden-Baden.
Given short shrift by the punters, Gonzalo Usandizaga
Gaminde=s 30-1 shot whose previous black-type had involved a
second in the San Siro=s Listed Premio Certosa Apr. 18, was sent
straight to the lead by Vaclav Janacek. Harried by Majestic Colt
(Ire) (Clodovil {Ire}) and briefly headed by that 4-1 favourite
inside the final furlong, the game chestnut kept responding to
eke out a neck success as they pulled four lengths clear of the
third Manjeer (Ire) (Footstepsinthesand {GB}).
Pedigree Notes Kitty Marion, a 3,000gns Godolphin cast-off at Tattersalls July
last year, is out of Pretty Primo (Ire) (Kyllachy {Ire}) who is a
full-sister to the Listed Winkfield S. third Mister Hardy (GB) and
a half to the G1 Prix Jean-Luc Lagardere-winning sire Wootton
Bassett (GB) also by Iffraaj. Also a half to the dam of the triple
listed scorer Katla (Ire) (Majestic Missile {Ire}) and to the G2
Sapphire S. third Rapid Reaction (Ire) (Shamardal), she is related
to the G1 St Leger and G1 Coronation Cup hero Silver Patriarch
(Ire) (Saddlers= Hall {Ire}) and the G1 Ascot Gold Cup hero

The proud winning connections of Kitty Marion | Emma Berry
VIVA ESPAYA AS KITTY MARION HAS THE
WHIP HAND By Emma Berry
BADEN-BADEN, GermanyBBIt is not often you hear the Spanish
national anthem ringing out across Germany but there was an
emotional rendition of the >Marcha Real' on Saturday as Kitty
Marion (GB) (Iffraaj {GB}) became the first Spanish-trained
group winner at Baden-Baden racecourse in the G3 Goldene
Peitsche.
Guillermo Arizkorreta is well known in his native country as
the multiple champion trainer with the largest string based at La
Zarzuela racecourse in Madrid. He has also made a number of
international forays in the past, to France and Dubai, but this
was the first time he had brought any runners to Baden-Baden.
Along with Kitty Marion, he saddled Hold On Now (GB) (Farhh
{GB}) to finish fifth in the Listed Wackenhut Mercedes Benz
Fillies Cup earlier on the card. On Sunday, he will be represented
by Rodaballo (GB) (Lope De Vega {Ire}) in the G2 Kronimus
Oettingen Rennen.
"This is an experiment, our first time here," said the trainer. It
is unlikely to be the last.
Jumping smartly to take an early lead under Czech-born jockey
Vaclav Janacek, the well made chestnut filly bossed the race
along the six furlongs of Baden-Baden's curved sprint course,
hanging on defiantly to repel the fast-finishing favourite
Majestic Colt (Ire) (Clodovil {Ire}).
Previously trained in France by Henri-Alex Pantall, Kitty Marion
was let go by Godolphin last July for 3,000gns at Tattersalls,
where Edgar Byrne selected her for his friend Arizkorreta and a
group of 10 owners made up of friends and family of Angel
Saenz. A group of 20 supporters made the trip from Madrid to
the outskirts of the Black Forest to cheer the mare home.
And they have had much to cheer about in the 14 months that
they have owned the 5-year-old. Kitty Marion won over 1600
metres on debut as a 4-year-old for Godolphin at the rural
French track of Lignieres en Berry. Two disappointing starts
followed before she was sent to the sales. Since moving to Spain
she has won three of her six starts in the country as well as
finishing runner-up in the Listed Premio Certosa at San Siro back
in April.
Bred by Julia Scott, formerly of Glebe Stud, along with her
brother James Dean and Lady Fiona Trenchard, Kitty Marion has
only enhanced what was already a very promising pedigree as
her dam, the six-furlong winner Pretty Primo (GB) (Kyllachy
{GB}), is a half-sister to Group 1 winner and sought-after sire
Wootton Bassett (GB), who shares his sire with Kitty Marion.
"We bought her at Tattersalls and since we dropped her in trip
she has improved a lot," said Arizkorreta after welcoming his
new stable star back to Baden-Baden's winner's enclosure.
"Sometimes she doesn't jump very well from the stalls but today
she was very quick, and she was very brave to hold on. She had
run very well in a listed race in Milan but this is our first Group 3
win."
As the translation of the race name suggests, the race trophy is
a gold whip inscribed with the previous 150 winners of the
historic contest. Cont. p7

Viva Espana Cont.
The list includes the former Spanish-trained Silverside
(Pleasantly Perfect), who won the Goldene Peitsche 10 years
ago when it was still a Group 2 contest, but he was based in
France at the time of his victory.
It will be worth keeping an eye Rodaballo, last year's Spanish
2000 Guineas winner, in his Group 2 contest on Sunday.
The highly consistent colt, bred by Spencer Chapman's Aston
House Stud, has won four of his eight starts in Madrid and
finished runner-up in the other four, as well as being
listed-placed in France last September. He too was bought at
Tattersalls, but this time from the Ardglas Stables draft at the
2019 Guineas Breeze-up Sale.
Arizkorreta said on Saturday, "It is a tough race but we were
actually more confident about his chances than for Kitty
Marion."

SEPTEMBER SUCCESS FOR HAMISH Lowering the colours of Hukum (Ire) (Sea the Stars {Ire}) is no
mean feat, but William Haggas had an ace up his sleeve in
Hamish (GB) (Motivator {GB}) and it was played to devastating
effect in Saturday=s G3 Unibet September S. at Kempton.
Taken out of last month=s Ebor H. due to the lack of rain, the
family-owned and bred gelding who was last seen finishing
fourth in the G2 Hardwicke S. at Royal Ascot 442 days ago
enjoyed the perfect trip in third against the rail throughout the
early stages. With Shadwell=s dual G3 Geoffrey Freer S. winner a
touch laboured here, the 9-1 shot was able to slip up the inner
after the cutaway two out for Pat Dobbs and beat that 30-100
favourite by a neck.
AI didn=t think we=d beat Hukum, I must say,@ Maureen Haggas
commented. AHe was fit and well, but has obviously been off the
track for a long time and was a bit fresh and gassy today. He
needs soft ground and we ran him today, as we needed to get
out and give him a race and it=s a kind surface here.@
Coming to the fore when winning York=s prestigious Melrose H.
over 14 furlongs in August 2019, Hamish had signed off that
season with a second to Trueshan (Fr) (Planteur {Ire}) in a
conditions event over an extended 13 furlongs at Newbury and
it is a measure of his inherent class that he was able to run such
a creditable race in the Hardwicke on his only outing of 2020.
AIt=s been a real big team effort to get him back. Laura Thomas
did all his treatment and rehab for his tendon injury with the vet
Jeremy Swan and Andrew Tinkler has ridden him a lot at home,@
Maureen Haggas added. AHe=s a talented horse. He had great
form as a 3-year-old and ran a really good race in the Hardwicke
last year, where unfortunately he picked up his tendon injury.
He needs rain, so he will run where it rains. We=ll aim at the
stayers= race [the Oct. 16 G2 QIPCO British Champions Long
Distance Cup] on Champions Day at Ascot and work back from
that.@

the G1 Doomben Cup and G3 John Porter S. respectively, while
this is the family of the G1 Prix Ganay winner Execute (Fr) (Suave

ARTISTIC RIFLES TAKES THE SUPERIOR MILE On a day when being up with the pace paid at Haydock, Zaro
SRL=s Artistic Rifles (Ire) (War Command) benefitted from man-
of-the-moment Andrea Atzeni=s guile to register a career-best
and provide a breakthrough for the Ed Bethell stable.
Already an eight-times winner in this country and in Italy, the
Mar. 27 Spring Mile H. scorer had earned a tilt at this level with
an impressive success in a mile handicap on the same Hamilton
card that the day=s feature hero Emaraaty Ana (GB) (Shamardal)
graced at the end of last month. There was no fluke to this, with
the 15-2 shot winning the race between the four and the three-
furlong marker with an employment of pace which took him
beyond the reach of the eventual 1 1/4-length runner-up Bell
Rock (GB) (Kingman {GB}).
James Bethell, who handed over his Middleham stable to his
son at the start of the year, was on hand and said, AEd has gone
to a wedding in Ireland. I think he was very reluctant to go, but
his girlfriend made him so she can get the blame. I would have
waited until next Saturday and gone for a ,50,000 handicap at
Doncaster, but this was entirely the trainer=s idea.@ Cont. p9

Bethell added, AHe went through the sales last year for ,4,000
and didn=t get a bid. I should think he would probably think of
going to Dubai after that. He loves fast ground and that is what
he really enjoys. He is at his best when he is out in front. When
he won the Spring Mile at Doncaster he made virtually all the
running, which is difficult to do up a straight track in a
handicap.@
Pedigree Notes This win comes just days after the winner=s Kodiac (GB) half-
brother was bought for ,75,000 by Bobby O=Ryan for Ben
Haslam at the Goffs UK Premier Yearling Sale. The dam Chatham
Islands (Elusive Quality), whose Balty Boys (Ire) (Cape Cross
{Ire}) also took this race in 2015 to give her a unique double, is
out of the Listed Flying Fillies S. winner Zelanda (Ire) (Night Shift)
who produced three black-type winners. They are headed by
Chatham Islands=s G3 Prix de Ris-Orangis-winning full-brother
Time Prisoner, while this is also the family of the G3 Prix des

responsible for the G3 Prix Thomas Bryon winner and G1
Criterium International runner-up Earnshaw (Medaglia d=Oro),
the dual Group 3-winning Lockwood (GB) (Invincible Spirit {Ire})

EVE LODGE IN SIRENIA UPSET Further advertising her first-season sire Ardad (Ire), Mathis

Runner-up to the subsequent G3 Dick Poole Fillies= S. winner
Romantic Time (GB) (Time Test {GB}) in a five-furlong Yarmouth
novice July 7, the bay enjoyed a perfect tow into the contest as
the G3 September S. winner Hamish (GB) (Motivator {GB}) was
to later on the card tracking the leading pair under Jim Crowley.
Using the cutaway to seize the lead approaching the furlong
pole, she had to be tough to see off the previously-unbeaten
Hierarchy (Ire) (Mehmas {Ire}) and Wings of War (Ire) (Dark
Angel {Ire}) but was equal to the task to beat the latter by a
length.
AI=ve always believed in this filly,@ commented trainer Charlie
Fellowes who was landing a first pattern race on home soil. AI
am incredibly proud of what we have achieved so far, but when
there is a monkey on your back like this one has been you can=t
help but think about it every time you go and run one. I am also
delighted for her owners, who bought her after her first win and
that she has repaid their faith and my faith in her. I do think she
is a very good filly.@
Eve Lodge, who opened her account over five furlongs on soft
ground at Lingfield May 22 prior to running 10th in the G3
Albany S. on heavy at Royal Ascot June 18, had run into a smart
rival on a surface that was contrasting at Yarmouth.

been as the winner went and won a Group 3 on Thursday. She is
a good size and I am sure she will train on next year. I think she
idled a bit in front and could have done with something helping
her out a little bit more. I=d be very confident there is more to
come. Ardad=s generally want a bit of cut in the ground and she
doesn=t want rattling ground, which it can be at Yarmouth and in

Snow Lantern (grey) | Tattersalls
BIG TEST FOR BAAEED ON SUNDAY Occasionally, a division leader can come from nowhere during
the course of a season and Shadwell=s unbeaten Baaeed (Ire)
(Sea the Stars {Ire}) fits that bill as he looks to step closer to the
title of king of the milers in Sunday=s G1 Prix du Moulin de
Longchamp.
Not seen in public until after Poetic Flare (Ire) (Dawn Approach
{Ire}) had run in all three of Europe=s 2000 Guineas, the full-
brother to the more stamina-infused Hukum (Ire) gave early
indication of his innate ability on his debut at Leicester June 7
and shouted it loud 12 days later in a Newmarket novice.
Demonstrative again with a four-length success in the latter
track=s Listed Sir Henry Cecil S. at the July Festival July 8, the bay
did nothing to bank the flames of excitement with a 6 1/2-length
verdict in the G3 Thoroughbred S. at Goodwood July 30. William
Haggas has spoken of his desire to protect what he sees as a
long-term project, but has had
his hand forced by the manner
of Baaeed=s progression and
this small and select affair will
provide connections with a
clearer picture of where they
stand.
AHe=s going up another couple
of grades and there=s no point
jumping the gun--let=s see if
he=s up to it,@ Angus Gold
commented. AWe=re taking on a
very good filly who is obviously
a Group 1 winner already and
very highly thought of. It=s going
to be a big test for him and
we=ll see if he can live up to the
hype now. I=m told it=s going to be nearly good ground. They
might get a little bit of rain, but not too much. He=s won on
good-to-soft, so I don=t think the ground will worry him unless
they get a downpour and it goes heavy or something.@
Despite the visual and technical impression of Baaeed=s
successes, he has yet to meet a rival of the calibre of Snow
Lantern (GB) (Frankel {GB}), who holds the bragging rights of
being the winner of one of the season=s leading contests, the G1
Falmouth S. That July 9 Newmarket contest has thrown up the
subsequent winners of the G1 Sussex S., G1 Prix Rothschild, G1
Nassau S., G2 Celebration Mile and G3 Atalanta S. with sheer
class running through the form top to bottom. Rockcliffe Stud=s
TDN Rising Star, who was behind the Falmouth third Alcohol
Free (Ire) (No Nay Never) when rain intervened both in Royal
Ascot=s G1 Coronation S. June 18 and the Sussex at Goodwood
July 28, was supposed to be building up slowly to the G1 Sun
Chariot S. later this month. Like Baaeed, she is here purely on
the basis of her wellbeing and should make this a genuine clash
with experience and the sex allowance in her favour.
Ballydoyle=s contenders can never be discounted from these
races, but Order of Australia (Ire) (Australia {GB}) and Lope Y
Fernandez (Ire) (Lope de Vega {Ire}) have to find significant
improvement on their best efforts this term when third in the
Aug. 15 G1 Prix Jacques le Marois and second in the June 15 G1
Queen Anne S., respectively.
That also applies to Godolphin=s Victor Ludorum (GB)
(Shamardal), who has not at any time since exceeded the level
of his promising success in the 2019 G1 Prix Jean-Luc Lagardere
to any major degree. Even a confidence-boosting win in a soft
renewal of the G3 Prix Messidor at Chantilly July 18 failed to
have the desired effect, as he was a poor seventh in the Jacques
le Marois and it will take all of Andre Fabre=s considerable guile
to conjure the requisite revival
here.
Godolphin=s Lisa-Jane
Graffard summed it up when
saying, AVictor Ludorum ran
below expectations last time,
but pulled out fine afterwards
and appears to be well in
himself both physically and
mentally. We have no real
explanation for that run and
would love to see him return to
his best form here, although we
are realistic about the task in
front of him.@

headed by Godolphin=s July 30 G3 Glorious S. scorer Passion and
Glory (Ire) (Cape Cross {Ire}). One of Saeed bin Suroor=s crew of
improvers, the 5-year-old has won five of his last six starts on
European turf and Polytrack and is lightly-raced and unexposed
for his age. APassion and Glory has been in excellent form since
coming back to the UK this season,@ his trainer said. AHe
deserves to take his chance at this level following a nice win at
Goodwood last time. His best performances have been with give
in the ground and it was soft at Baden-Baden earlier in the
week, although it looks as though it will dry out for Sunday. He
heads out there in good form and we are looking forward to
seeing how he gets on in a big race like this.@ Cont. p12

Tattersalls Somerville Yearling Sale Preview Cont. from p1
The Tattersalls Ascot Yearling Sale was incorporated in 2017 as
a boutique auction laser-focused on the type of sharp,
precocious youngsters that were gaining so rapidly in popularity,
and it turns out the desire for that kind of animal has not waned
one bit. Off the back of last year=s excellent resultsBwhich built
on the year-on-year gains the sale had achieved since its
inauguration--heads went together at HQ and it was announced
that the Tattersalls Ascot Yearling Sale would be permanently
relocated to Park Paddocks and re-branded the Tattersalls
Somerville Yearling Sale. The first edition of the sale under its
new guise takes place on Tuesday with 292 catalogued.
AThe success of the Tattersalls Ascot Yearling Sale at Park
Paddocks last year posed the question to everyone here,
Ashould we hold the sale here permanently? And I think it was a
pretty straightforward decision to do that,@ explained Tattersalls
Marketing Executive Bobby Jackson. AAnd moving it here, we
felt it would need a new name and its own identity.@
It was decided the sale should honour Somerville Tattersall,
the last member of the Tattersalls family to lead the firm, he
having done so through another very turbulent period in history,
the first half of the 20th century.
ATattersalls is all about innovation and moving forward, but
also tradition, and Somerville Tattersall encompassed all of this,
and it felt right to give the sale that name,@ Jackson said.
ASomerville Tattersall shaped the modern Tattersalls as everyone
knows it now. We felt you could compare his story to the Ascot
Yearling Sale, and how in a short space of time it has been thrust
into the limelight and come quite a long way.@ Cont. p13

Tattersalls Somerville Yearling Sale Preview Cont.
One aspect of the Ascot sale that endeared it to its loyal
vendors and buyers was the personal service offered by the
Tattersalls Ascot team, and Jackson noted the Tattersalls team is
committed to maintaining that. Jackson and fellow Tattersalls
marketing executive Chloe Pitts have joined forces with
Tattersalls Ascot=s Matt Hall and Shirley Anderson-Jolag as the
dedicated team working on the Somerville Yearling Sale, with
Ollie Fowlston doing the yearling selection.
ASomething people liked about the Tattersalls Ascot Yearling
Sale was the personal touch that the Tattersalls Ascot team
had,@ Jackson explained. AThat=s something we wanted to keep
going with the Somerville Sale. Even though it=s now called the
Somerville Yearling Sale, we=re keen that it still has that personal
touch that the Ascot Yearling Sale had.@
Jackson was likewise keen to stress that the move to Park
Paddocks does not mean that the Somerville Yearling Sale will
become amalgamated with the two-week October Yearling Sale
that begins four weeks later. Helping keep that identity separate
is the fact that the sale has produced so many big-name
graduates in its short historyB10 stakes winners in the last two
years alone, led by the G2 Lowther S. victress Miss Amulet (Ire)
(Sir Prancealot {Ire}) and the G3 Molecomb S. winner Steel Bull
(Ire) (Clodovil {Ire}), graduates of the 2019 sale at ,7,500 and
,15,000, respectively. The second renewal of the sale in 2018
proved a bumper edition, producing group winners Shadn (Ire)
(No Nay Never) and Liberty Beach (GB) (Cable Bay {Ire}) as well
as listed winners Summer Sands (GB) (Coach House {Ire}) and
Flippa The Strippa (Ire) (Outstrip {GB}).
Summer Sands, bought for a mere ,2,000, evolved into an
85,000gns breezer and six months later was hammered down
for 625,000gns at the Tattersalls Autumn Horses in Training Sale
after winning the Listed Redcar Two-Year-Old Trophy and
finishing third in the G1 Middle Park S.
Last year=s sale has already produced three stakes winners
among its 41 winners thus far: 17,500gns purchase
Windstormblack (GB) (Brazen Beau {Aus}) won the G3 Premio
Primi Passi in June, while 10,000gns purchase Chipotle (GB)
(Havana Gold {GB}) scaled some of racing=s highest peaks the
same month when winning Royal Ascot=s Listed Windsor Castle
S., having already taken the Brocklesby Conditions S. and the
Royal Ascot Two-Year-Old Trial Conditions S. for
trainer/purchaser Eve Johnson Houghton. Saturday marked the
victory of 12,500gns purchase Eve Lodge (GB) (Ardad {Ire}) in
the G3 Sirenia S. at Kempton.
Jackson said horses like Chipotle are exactly what the
Somerville Yearling Sale has, and will continue to, target.
AWe were conscious as a team that we wanted the Somerville
Yearling Sale to remain about the precocious, early, athletic 2-
year-olds that had been known to come from the Ascot Yearling
Sale, and that=s definitely what has been catalogued in the
Somerville Yearling Sale,@ he said.
Steadfast supporters of the Tattersalls Ascot Yearling Sale have
gotten behind the Somerville Yearling Sale with some of their
more precocious yearlings: Tally-Ho Stud brings 19, Barton Stud
and Rathasker Stud 11 apiece and Trickledown Stud 10. And
some of the circuit=s leading vendors are bringing drafts to the
sale for the first time, like Yeomanstown Stud, Lynn Lodge Stud
and Castledillon Stud. The catalogue includes half-siblings to
stakes-winning graduates Windstormblack (lot 2, a filly by Adaay
{Ire}) and Flippa The Strippa (lot 222, a colt by War Command).

the family of multiple group-winning juvenile and productive
young sire Gutaifan (Ire). The stakes-winning and Group 1-
placed Baileys Jubilee has a colt by Twilight Son set to sell (lot
206).
AThere are half brothers and sisters to 44 group and listed
performers catalogued,@ Jackson noted. AAnd there are 108
siblings to 2-year-old winners and 80 out of 2-year-old winning
dams. It=s still definitely the early, precocious 2-year-olds, which
is what we wanted to keep in the catalogue going forward.@
The aforementioned daughter of Sahool is one of four by the
ever-popular Kodiac in the book, and other proven Group 1 sires
represented include Showcasing, Night Of Thunder (Ire), Dark
Angel (Ire) and his sire Acclamation (GB), Ardad (Ire), Dandy
Man (Ire), Holy Roman Emperor (Ire), Mehmas (Ire), Oasis
Dream (GB), Starspangledbanner (Aus) and Zoffany. Currently
popular young sires like Cotai Glory (GB), Galileo Gold (GB),
Profitable (Ire) and Ribchester (Ire) are also represented. First-
season sire Havana Grey is the most represented sire in the
book with 21, and other first-crop sires with progeny on offer
include Cracksman (GB), Expert Eye (GB), Harry Angel (Ire),
Kessaar (Ire), Sioux Nation, Tasleet (GB) and Zoustar (Aus) with
his first Northern Hemisphere crop.
The Tattersalls Somerville Yearling Sale begins at 10 a.m. on
Tuesday. All yearlings offered are eligible for the ,150,000
Tattersalls October Auction S. as well as the new ,100,000
Tattersalls Somerville Auction S., which will be held five weeks
apart in 2022 with the Tattersalls Somerville Auction S. taking
place over six furlongs on the Newmarket July Course in late
August, with prizemoney paid down to 10th place.
MELBOURNE CUP PLACER PRINCE OF
ARRAN RETIRED After winning his first domestic group contest with Eve Lodge
(GB) (Ardad {Ire}) in the G3 Sirenia S., trainer Charlie Fellowes
has called time on his likable globetrotter Prince of Arran (GB)
(Shirocco {Ger}), who finished last of five in the G3 September S.
at Kempton on Saturday. The Saeed bel Obaida silksbearer is
best known for placing in three editions of the G1 Melbourne
Cup--second in 2019 and third in both 2018 and 2020.
AIt is with a heavy heart that we have decided to retire Prince
of Arran,@ Fellowes tweeted of the Rabbah Bloodstock-bred. AHe
has taken me places I could never have dreamed of and I am
delighted he was here to witness my first domestic group
winner. Happy retirement old boy.@
The trainer added, AAn amazing day. It was quite apt Prince Of
Arran was here on a day I got my first domestic group winner.
It=s been a long time coming and we=ve gone so close on so
many occasions, including with Prince Of Arran, and for it to
happen with him here was fantastic. A special day. One I will
never forget.@
Originally, Prince of Arran=s last race was to have been the
2021 Melbourne Cup on Nov. 2. However, the 8-year-old
gelding was barred from competing in a fourth edition by the
Australian authorities. Besides the September S., Prince of
Arran=s other 2021 starts was a fifth-place in the G3 Sagaro S. at
Ascot in April. A two-time Group 3 winner in Australia, his record
stands at 49-6-8-10 with $2,599,090 in earnings. He placed at
the group level in England in the 2017 and 2020 Sagaro S. and
the 2019/20 G3 September S. Prince of Arran also ran third in
the GII Belmont Gold Cup Invitational S. in 2018. Cont. p15

Fellowes continued, AThe plan had been to run him in the
Melbourne Cup and retire him after that. This was going to be
his last year racing whatever. The run today was very good for
him. It=s as good as he=s run in this race.
AHe ran well up to form and it was lovely to see him much
better than he was at Ascot in the spring. If we=d been allowed
to go to Australia we=d have gone, but now that=s off the cards
there=s not much else here for him now.
AWe retire a sound and happy horse and he=ll have a fantastic
retirement wherever that may be. For someone at this stage of
my career with a horse like him, some of the days I=ve had have
been so special.
AHe=s won over ,2m in prize-money, we=ve travelled all around
the world with him and he=s been an utter superstar. I can=t
thank his owners enough or the many people in our yard who
have had such an impact on his career.@

Both Godolphin=s Book 1 sensation Hafit and Sheikh
Mohammed Obaid Al Maktoum=s homebred blueblood Triple
Time were breaking their maidens Aug. 6, but as the latter was
doing so at the third attempt it was the 2.1 million guineas
purchase Hafit that elicited the greater excitement in a
fascinating renewal of this Classic pointer. Triple Time, who had
been started over an inadequate six furlongs when third behind
the subsequent G2 Superlative S. third Dhabab (Ire) (No Nay
Never) at Leicester June 1, was a touch disappointing when
runner-up to Mr McCann (Ire) (Kodiac {GB}) over seven here a
month later but that rival went on to finish fourth in the
Superlative to add some symmetry to the form.
It was only when tackling this trip returning to this venue that
he was able to grow into his early promise with a 9 1/2-length
dismissal of the seven-race maiden but solid yardstick Point
Lynas (Ire) (Iffraaj {GB}) and despite a tardy break here was once
again sent straight to the front by Andrea Atzeni. As the Listed
Stonehenge S. runner-up Power of Beauty (Ire) (Slade Power
{Ire}), who had got upset and reared in the stalls, waved the
white flag in midstraight it was only Hafit who was able to pose
a threat. Galloping relentlessly to ward off the favourite, Triple
Time had the most to give in the run to the line to decide a
contest that may be used as a reference point several times in
the future.
Trainer Kevin Ryan is understandably excited about Triple Time
and said, AEven in the Spring, we thought he was very special
but he=s taken a bit of time. Physically he=s there, but mentally
he=s just taken racing to really learn the job. He was very
impressive today. We were very worried about the ground, but
Sheikh Mohammed Obaid is never afraid to get them beat and
we decided we=d find out if he handled it or not. He=s handled it
and he=s probably handled it because he=s a very good horse.
He=s done everything we=ve needed to do this year and he=s
obviously identified himself as a very talented horse.@ Cont. p17

Future targets and optimum trip have yet to be decided, but
Ryan is not in a rush to decide the next race. AWe=ll do what=s
right by the horse. He=s going to be a very exciting horse for next
year,@ he added. ASheikh Mohammed Obaid said about going 10
furlongs and I said that is probably as far as we want to go. We
are both on the same hymn sheet. You have to think of him as a
Guineas horse, as that is the best trial for any race. I would
presume that is what we will be leading to next year. He has
loads of speed and you need a sprinter to go with him. He is a
big striding horse and that is why Andrea has let him go to the
front. If you try to break his stride he will try take you on. If you
let him use his stride he will switch off and settle for you.@
Triple Time is a half-brother to four black-type winners who
carried these silks with distinction. They are the G1 Prix Jean
Romanet heroine Ajman Princess, this year=s Listed Lingfield
Derby Trial scorer and G3 Gordon S.-placed Third Realm, the G3
Bengough S. winner Cape Byron and the G2 Prix Daniel

Cieren Fallon before crossing over to track the leading duo.
Squeezing through a gap towards the fence two out, the 13-2
shot was soon in command and despite lugging right hit the line
strong to score by 4 3/4 lengths from stablemate Candleford
(Ire) (Kingman {GB}) who was later disqualified after his jockey
weighed in light. AHe=s improving fast,@ trainer William Haggas
said. AHe did surprise me how far he won by, but he is getting
better and is behaving much better. Everything is falling into
place. We=ve always liked him, he=s a beautiful mover, a very
sound horse and he=s really coming good. This was a step up in
grade today and he took it with aplomb. I think Her Majesty has

BOUQUET (GB) (f, 2, Dark Angel {Ire}--Bound {Ire} {SW-Ire}, by
Galileo {Ire}), who suffered a troubled passage when a
promising third going seven furlongs in her July 10 debut at
Newmarket last time, was quickly into stride from the outside
gate and raced in a prominent second into the straight. Hooking
up with Beautiful Secret (GB) (Invincible Spirit {Ire}), the 6-5
chalk was driven to subdue that rival approaching the furlong
pole and held plenty in reserve to withstand the late threat of
Mashaaer (Ire) (Muhaarar {GB}) by 1 1/2 lengths. Bouquet, half-
sister to a yearling colt and weanling colt by Dubawi (Ire), is the
first of three foals out of Listed Silken Glider S. winner Bound
(Ire) (Galileo {Ire}). The February-foaled homebred grey=s dam is
a full-sister to G1 Epsom Derby hero Serpentine (Ire), GSW G1
Epsom Oaks placegetter Bye Bye Baby (Ire), G2 Kilboy Estate S.

MYTHICAL DANCER (IRE) (c, 2, Shamardal--La Arenosa {Ire} {SW
& GSP-Fr, SW-Eng, $112,822}, by Exceed and Excel {Aus}) was
caught napping at the break, but recovered to race in a handy
fourth after the initial stages of this debut. Hurried along leaving
the three-furlong pole behind, the 9-4 second choice quickened
to go second passing the furlong marker and kept on powefully
under minimal coaxing to oust Tuscan (Ire) (Churchill {Ire}) by a
head in the dyring stride. Mythical Dancer is the latest of three
foals and first scorer out of dual stakes-winning G3 Prix Andre
Baboin runner-up La Arenosa (Ire) (Exceed and Excel {Aus}),
herself the leading performer for Listed Prix Madame Jean
Couturie victrix Baranquilla (GB) (Acatenango {Ger}). Baranquilla

approaching the furlong pole, the 10-11 favourite asserted to
score by half a length from Unique Cut (Ire) (Kodiac {GB}). The
winner is a half-brother to the G2 Duchess of Cambridge S. third
Chaleur (GB) (Dansili {GB}), GSP-Eng, SP-US, $152,017, and her
full-brother Dalvey (GB) who was third in the G3 Ballysax S. The

a rough encounter. Baulked leaving the stalls before settling on
the outer towards the rear of mid-division, the bay had to be
brave to get between Lingering Dream and Trixia de Vega inside
the final 150 metres but proved admirably resilient again to

DREFONG COLT DOMINATES IN JAPANby Heather Anderson
The G3 Sapporo Nisai S. featured nine juveniles, but it was the
June 26 debut winner Geoglyph (Jpn) (Drefong) who was the
star of the show on Saturday, drawing off to win by four lengths.
The first black-type winner for his GI Breeders= Cup Sprint-
winning sire, the even-money favourite hopped slightly at the
start and was last entering the first turn. Tucked in behind as
Top Cast (Jpn) (Daiwa Major {Jpn}) cut out the early running,
pilot Christophe Lemaire kept the chestnut in touch with his foes
and began to make up some ground as the pacesetter covered
five furlongs in 1:00.30.
Geoglyph=s rallying rush continued on the far turn and he had
moved up to fourth with a quarter-mile yet to travel. The
Sunday Racing colourbearer came charging three deep into the
lane, took command and skipped away to win as much the best.
Ask Wild More (Jpn) (Kizuna {Jpn}) closed to take second four
lengths back and 1 2 lengths to the good of fellow closer Tosen
Vanno (Jpn) (Vanquish Run {Jpn}).
Pedigree Notes Drefong, named Eclipse Champion Sprinter Stateside in 2016
and a three-time Grade I winner, has 78 foals from his first crop
that are 2-year-olds of 2021. The son of dual Eclipse Champion
