Free Handicap Filled With Floridians
T
he Jockey Club’s annual Experimental Free Handicap was released Jan. 29 and as might be expected, Florida-breds, Florida mares, Florida stallions and Florida breeders are well represented. First published in 1933, the Experimental Free Handicap is a weight-based assessment of North America’s top 2-year-olds with weights assignments allocated on a hypothetical race at 11⁄16 miles. To be eligible for weight assignments, 2-year-olds must have started in a graded or listed stakes race run in the United States or Canada. This is the first year horses are eligible based on races run in Canadian. Out of the eligible 244 colts and geldings and the 221 fillies, a total 113 males and 115 fillies made the grade and were assigned weights. Adding the Canadian races increased the total number of eligible 2-year-olds by 33 fillies and 29 colts and geldings, including 15 weighted fillies and 10 weighted males. Kentucky led all EFH producing states with 72 males and 66 fillies making the final lists while Florida ranked second with 10 colts and geldings and five fillies. The 2015 list toppers were no surprise as both were undefeated, including winning their respective Breeders’
Florida mares, Florida stallions “Florida-breds, and Florida breeders are well represented. ” Cup races, and both were named Eclipse Award-winning champions. Sentient Jet Breeders’ Cup Juvenile (G1) winner Nyquist was assigned the top weight of 126 pounds among colts and geldings while 14 Hands Winery Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies (G1) Songbird was given a mythical 125 pounds to top the filly division. Songbird is the only the second filly since First Flight (126 lbs.) in 1946 to be weighted higher than 124 pounds. The other was Countess Diana (125 lbs.) in 1997. Of note to Florida breeders is Songbird’s breeding as she is by Medaglia d’Oro out of the now 16-year-old Florida-bred mare Ivanavinalot, by the late West Acre, 6 THE FLORIDA HORSE • FEBRUARY 2016
who stood at Stonehedge Farm in Williston, Fla. Ivanavinalot was bred and raced by Gilbert Campbell. Flora Dora, who won the My Dear Girl division of the Florida Sires Stakes, was the top weighted Florida-bred filly with a 114 pound assignment. Bred by Ocala’s Dizney Double Diamond LLC, Flora Dora is by Double Diamond’s leading freshman sire First Dude out of Aidan, by Dixieland Band. Also making the grade in the filly division of the EFH is Family Meeting at 109 pounds. By Sky Mesa and out of Family Plan, by Repriced, Family Meeting was bred in Florida by Glen Hill Farm and counts among her 2015 wins the Grade 3 Jimmy Durante Stakes at Del Mar. Other Florida-bred fillies making the prestigious list include the Bridlewood Farm-bred Crystal Rosario at 103 pounds, Wave of Glory at 102 pounds and It’s My Pleasure at 101 pounds. Particia Generazio of Tequesta, Fla., bred Wave of Glory and Rustlewood Farm, Inc., of Ocala bred It’s My Pleasure. Topping the list of Florida-bred colts and gelding is Uncle Vinny, who was also named the Florida-bred champion 2-year-old male. Assigned 110 pounds, Uncle Vinny is by Uncle Mo, out of the Florida-bred mare Arealhotlover, by Untuttable and is another from the breeding program of Gilbert Campbell. His 2015 stakes victories included the Grade 3 Sanford Stakes at Saratoga. Other Florida-bred 2-year-old colts and geldings making the EFH, with their assigned weights and breeders in parenthesis, are I’malreadythere (110 lbs., Thomas J. Lane, DVM), Awesome Slew (108 lbs., Live Oak Stud), Mac Daddy Mac (108lbs., Stud El Aguila), Rare Candy (107 lbs., Farm III Enterprises LLC), Sheikh of Sheikhs (107 lbs., Manuel Andrade), Don’t Be So Salty (106 lbs., John A. DeVault III and Sue S. DeVault), Forevamo (106 lbs., Ocala Stud), Bullet Gone Astray (104 lbs., Joe Carroll and Kris Carroll), and Paynes Prarie (103 lbs., McKathan Brothers). Gone Astray, who stands in Florida at Northwest Stud in Ocala, is the sire of Bullet Gone Astray and First Dude also sired the Virginia-bred Sticksstatelydude, who was weighted at 107 pounds in the colt and gelding division. ■

Florida-bred X Y Jet
LESLIE MARTIN PHOTO
Gelfenstein Farm’s XY Jet hit the winners’ circle for the third consecutive time while also picking up his first stakes victory as he led from start to finish to win the Grade 3 Mr. Prospector Stakes at Gulfstream Park Dec.
19. It was the 63rd running of the six-urlong Mr. Prospector, which featured a $102,000 purse to seven 3-year-olds and older. By Ocala Stud stallion Kantharos out of Soldiersingsblues, by Lost Soldier, XY Jet went off as the 2-1 second choice behind fellow Florida-bred Stallwalkin’ Dude, who was bet down to 6-5 coming off his victory in the Dec. 5 Claiming Crown Rapid Transit at Gulfstream. With jockey Emisael Jaramillo aboard, XY Jet sprinted clear of the field right from the start and had a 11⁄2-length lead on longshot Singanothersong in second while Stallwalkin’ Dude tucked in behind those two in third. 8 THE FLORIDA HORSE • FEBRUARY 2016
main issue with him,” Navarro said. “Now he’s a 3-year-old. He’s more mature. I told the jock to just break and go. We’re going to take a look at how he comes out. Hopefully, everything comes out good and we’ll go from there.” Jaramillo also said he was quite confident in XY Jet coming into the Mr. Prospector. “I had a lot of confidence in the horse today,” Jaramillo said. “I was impressed with the way he ran last time and I’m even more impressed with him today.” ■
Multiple G2 Winner Amira’s Prince (Ire) to Stand at Pleasant Acres Multiple Grade 2 winner Amira’s Prince (Ire) will stand his first season at stud at Pleasant Acres in Williston, Fla.. His fee will be $5,000 stands and nurses. “I am a passionate breeder of turf horses, and, to me, this horse ticks all of the boxes,” said Joe Barbazon, owner of Pleasant Acres. “He is by a champion juvenile from the most prolific sire line in the world, and he is from an outstanding female family. On top of it all, this is a gorgeous animal.” Campaigned by trainer Bill Mott, Amira’s Prince began racing in Ireland before moving to the States where he won his first four races. After easily clearing a couple of allowance conditions at Gulfstream, Amira’s Prince captured his stakes debut in Gulfstream’s

XY Jet Lands Graded Mr. Prospector
After a quarter-mile in a quick :21.92, XY Jet led Singanothersong and Stallwalkin’ Dude around the turn and began to pull away in the straight as those two dropped back. After a half-mile in :44.29, XY Jet was more than seven lengths ahead of the pack and had put 10 lengths on the field coming down the stretch. At the wire, XY Jet had a 91⁄4-lengthsmargin on the Jacks or Better Farm homebred duo of Grande Shores in second with C. Zee third. Stallwalkin’ Dude dropped back to fifth and Singanothersong faded to sixth. XY Jet, who is trained by Jorge Navaro, stopped the teletimer in 1:08.56 on the main track rated as “fast.” Bred in Florida by Didier Plasencia, XY Jet began his winning streak in September when he won an entry-level, $20,000 optional-claiming race at Monmouth Park. He then came back on Nov. 11 at Gulfstream Park West and won a $60,000 optional claiming race, both run at six furlongs. He had tried graded stakes before but could only manage a runner-up performance to winner Barbados in the Grade 3 Hutchenson Stakes at Gulfstream last January and a dull sixth in the Grade 2 Swale in March after a slow break. He was then given some time off before returning to win at Monmouth in September. XY Jet is a two-ime Ocala Breeders Sales graduate. He was first consigned by Two Sharp Hats to the 2013 winter mixed sale before they sold him for $56,000 at the 2013 August yearling sale. “We always thought this was a nice horse. I guess we rushed him into things and he wasn’t prepared to be doing the things that we’re doing right now,” Navarro said. “I think he’s a nice horse; my next Private Zone.” Private Zone was a Grade 1-winning sprinter for Navarro, who took over training for X Y Jet earlier this year. “The last two times he ran at Gulfstream Park he stumbled really bad.

While Ye May and Union Grace retreated but Noholdingback Bear wasn’t through and he and Awesome Banner hit the half together in :44.87. Awesome Banner showed his quality turning for home, easing away to win by 4¾ lengths while clocking a very speedy 1:09.57 for the six-furlong event. “This is a brilliant colt,” Caraballo said. Jacks or Better Farm’s Awesome Banner left his trainer and rider searching for su- “He is very smart. Anything you ask him to perlatives Jan. 2 after he jumped from do, he’ll do. I think he’ll go longer. He’s a fast maiden winner to graded-stakes winner in horse, but he’s not a speed horse, a crazy horse. He’s very relaxed. Very sensible. Nothing bothers him.” Awesome Banner paid $4.60 and the $60,760 first prize boosted his earnings to $92,260. Relief and elation could be found in the running narrative of the race provided by trainer Stanley Gold immediately after the winner’s circle ceremony. Florida-bred Awesome Banner “[At the quarter pole] just his second career start, overcoming six I was thinking, ‘Oh, no!’ [Union Grace] was starting to get up in there, and I saw we were months on the sidelines while doing it.

restrained her a tad, allowing second-choice Aquinnah and third-choice Silver Sashay to battle it out early, the two racing heads apart through a first quarter in :21.40. Jewel of a Cat picked up the leaders before the field hit the turn, racing outside the dueling pair. First to quit was Silver Sashay, but Aquinnah proved a much tougher nut to crack, lasting until inside the sixteenth pole. While Aquinnah weakened, the Chilean import Tesalina gathered momentum along the rail and now she took dead aim at Jewel of a Cat, with Catching Fireflies also closing fast. Jewel of a Cat had enough left to hold them off in a four-horse finish. Tesalina outfinished Catching Fireflies by a neck, with Aquinnah a half-length farther back. Silver Sashay drifted all the way back to last. The time for the race, contested over a firm course, was :55.34, with the half-mile done in :43.34. The winner, a daughter of Wildcat Heir out of the Pentelicus mare Marbleous Routine, was bred by Mr. and Mrs. Marty Hersche. The $45,105 paycheck from the score raised Jewel of a Cat’s earnings to $435,695. She races under the orange and blue colors of J and J Stables, for whom she has an overall record of seven wins from 23 starts. She paid $4.80. Jewel of a Cat came into the Windley Key off a three-length victory over males in the Millions Turf Sprint Preview at Gulfstream Park West, also at five furlongs over the turf, a surface and distance in which she is 3-for4 in South Florida, her one loss being a runner-up showing in her debut under those conditions at Gulfstream Park West in the Sparkler Stakes. Vaccarezza trains the mare for Williams, taking over that chore a couple months ago when Williams bought out a partner and sent her south. Prior to that transaction, she had raced out of the barn of Ben Perkins Jr., who does most of his racing in the MidAtlantic region.

“There was no question involved, it was ‘fix it,’” he said, adding that his Hutcheson victory validates the lofty estimation of his connections. “It’s hard to gauge with a 2-year-old but the way they do it is more important than when you look up there at the clock. He did it so effortlessly, came back and trained the same way. Nolholdingback Bear held second in the Hutcheson, a length in front of the late-running Sheikh of Sheikhs. Gulfstream’s schedule of races for 3-yearolds includes the $350,000 Holy Bull (G2) Jan. 30 and $400,000 Fountain of Youth (G2) Feb. 27, both at 1 1/16 miles. “Because of [Awesome Banner’s] demeanor I don’t think distance is going to be a problem,” Gold said. “He’s sprinting because we’re training him to sprint, and we’re riding him to sprint, but he’s never shown any problem … certainly we’re going to try to stretch him out.” Awesome Banner is the fifth named foal of the Zamindar mare Miranda Stands. Awesome Banner’s fourth dam, Three Tees, produced Gulfstream Park Handicap winner Vertee. ■
Life Imitates Art First in Dania Beach A frustrating series of second-place finishes concluded Jan. 2 for the promising Florida-bred 3-year-old Life Imitates Art, who finally led a field to the wire, taking the $100,000 Dania Beach (G3) at Gulfstream Park by a head. The 7½-furlong turf race brought out 10 3-year-olds, three of whom went off at less than the 7-2 odds posted on Life Imitates Art. Off seventh, Life Imitates Art was never more than five lengths back as 169-1 Copingaway and 35-1 Duffle Bag led the field through a leisurely first half-mile, tripping the timer in :24:47 and :49.40.

had been stalking the top two and when they called it quits he grabbed a shortlived lead that ended when Life Imitates Art, after an anxious moment for rider Joel Rosario, barged into the picture along the rail. “It worked out perfect,” Rosario said. “I was trying to save some ground, we had a lot of horse. I was waiting and then hopefully the horse in the front would come in and then maybe I could go out, but he decided to stay outside. I was just looking for some room.” Isotherm and Life Imitates Art hooked up at the furlong pole and they provided a thriller for the crowd on hand, with Life Imitates Art just getting up in time. Isotherm had 1½ lengths on Urban Bourbon. Isotherm was credited with six furlongs in 1:13.27; Life Imitates Art hit the line in 1:30.42. The blazed face winner paid $9 and earned $58,900, raising his bankroll to $150,750. “He really put it together,” said winning

trainer Chad Brown. “Joel fit the horse perfectly and gave him a great ground-saving trip. When he called on the horse, the horse really responded and I’m really proud of him. We’ve always thought he was one of our better horses. Life Imitates Art is a son of More Than Ready out of Habiboo, by Unbridled’s Song. A $175,000 yearling purchase, he was bred by Hardacre Farm and is owned by Klaravich Stables and William Lawrence. Habiboo, herself a $210,000 purchase, has had five foals go through the ring and each has fetched at least $100,000. Transparent, her second foal, sold for $725,000; he earned more than a quarter million. Habiboo is a half-sister to $831,800 earner
Street Boss and her third dam is a half-sister to $1.6 million earner Running Stag. Life Imitates Art had finished second in his four races leading up to the Dania Beach. He came into the race off a neck loss to Swagger Jagger in the Nov. 28 Pulpit at Gulfstream Park West. He was a nose behind in his prior start, at Belmont, but was elevated to the top spot after the winner was disqualified. He was runner-up in his bow, at Saratoga, prior to running into Isotherm in his second effort. The Dania Beach was Rosario’s first ride on Life Imitates Art; Irad Ortiz rode him in his first three starts and Aaron Gryder was up in the Pulpit. All five of his career races have been on turf. Brown indicated he would keep Life Imitates Art on turf at Gulfstream, which hosts the $100,000 Kitten’s Joy on Jan. 30 and the $150,000 Palm Beach Stakes (G3) on Feb. 27. ■
Venerable Mare African Rose Hits Half-million Mark The 7-year-old Florida-bred mare African Rose showed she has plenty left in the tank Jan. 2 when she rallied between foes to win the $65,000 Bold Ego by 2½ lengths at Sunland Park. Off at a generous 6-1, the daughter of Bwana Charlie, bred by Heligbrodt Racing Stable, was making her third start in the Bold Ego, a 5½-furlong event in which she finished second, beaten a neck in 2014, and sixth when she was a 3-year-old in 2012. Making her 40th career start, African Rose had already shown a fondness for Sunland Park, winning nine of her 18 prior starts there, including three editions of the Harry Henson Stakes. Coming out of a seventh-place finish in the Zia Distaff on Nov. 25, she went off the fourth choice as the crowd had difficulty separating the talents of Chanteline, 9-5, and Belleofthebeach, 2-1. Longshots Small Moves and Cassy Sue set the pace as Enrique Gomez bided his time aboard African Rose, racing just behind a wall of horses as the field headed into the far turn.

Fla.-bred Wins Laurel’s Marshua The first of two Michael Dilger-trained Florida-breds struck at Laurel Jan. 16 when the 3-year-old filly Karen’s Silk hooked 12 favorite Lost Raven approaching the final furlong and came away a going-away winner of the $75,000 Marshua Stakes. Dilger would cap his day winning the $250,000 Sunshine Millions Classic at Gulfstream with Mexikoma. While Mexikoma is owned by Team Valor, Karen’s Silk is owned by GRD Two Racing. The daughter of Ocala Stud stallion High Cotton, foaled by the Closing Argument mare Stay on Track, lost her first start but has since taken her last three. She came into the six-furlong Marshua off a 30-1 tally at Aqueduct against $80,000 optionalclaiming company going six furlongs on Dec. 17. She’s been ridden by Kermit Carmouche, Daniel Centeno and Chris DeCarlo and she had her fourth rider in four starts when Jevian Toledo climbed aboard. Toledo kept Karen’s Silk safe from the early fray between four-time Charles Town stakes winner Aye a Song and Lost Raven, who engaged in a duel that nearly lasted the length of the race. Seizing his chance in midstretch, Toledo sent Karen’s Silk up on the outside of the two leaders and his fresh mount was able to ease away. Lost Raven, who had won the Smart Halo Stakes at Lau-
rel Nov. 15, was game and beat back Aye a Song to save the place by 2¼ lengths. “[Karen’s Silk] broke good and I was in a great spot all the way,” Toledo said. “When I asked her, she gave me everything she had.” Fractions were brisk – :23.15, :47.11 and 59.54 – and Karen’s Silk hit the wire in 1:12.53 over a track labeled “good.” She earned $45,000, raising her account to $107,850. She paid $8.
Ocala Stud, OBS and FTBOA Join the Ocala Initiative Ocala Stud and the Florida Thoroughbred Breeders’ and Owners’ Association have joined Ocala Breeders’ Sales Co. in committing to donate $10,000 to the Grayson-Jockey Club Research Foundation’s Ocala Initiative. The support signals a growing interest among area organizations in advancing equine health and welfare through this important initiative. “The FTBOA, OBS and Ocala Stud are three cornerstone institutions of Florida thoroughbred horse racing,” said Garrett Gleeson, director of development and major gifts at the foundation. “Their support for the Ocala Initiative shows their commitment to putting equine health and welfare first. We’re excited to have them as partners in this growing collective of equine organizations.” The Grayson-Jockey Club Research Foundation is working with companies in the equine community in Ocala and throughout Florida to raise $100,000 and will then solicit matching funds from individuals. The funds will be earmarked to support equine research at the University of Florida. The initiative is designed to give those in the equine business the opportunity to give back to the horses that give so much. Past Grayson-funded research developed vaccines for equine influenza and viral arteritis, defined Colitis X, and developed the field of biomechanics in horses, among other significant accomplishments. Current priorities include laminitis, foal pneumonia,

RIDE TO WIN EXCERPTS Good Mounts are Hard to Keep – Mounts on the best horses aren’t easy to land and can be even tougher to keep. Journeyman jockey Jose Caraballo, who rode Barbaro to victories in his first two starts before being replaced by Edgar Prado, certainly understands. Race Visualization, per Jerry Bailey – Jockey Jerry Bailey’s plan for riding Real Quiet in the Hollywood Gold Cup in 1999 called for patiently waiting for running room in the stretch. Bailey assured trainer Bob Baffert and owner Mike Pegram that a hole would open, even though they were concerned that Real Quiet might be trapped along the inside. As often was the case when Bailey visualized how a race might be run, his strategy turned out golden.
national – to further strengthen and improve Florida's successful horse racing industry. “The vote for Glen to come on board was unanimous, and we’re confident he brings the kind of leadership and experience that will pave the way for horsemen’s continued success in Florida for many years to come,” said board member Adam Lazarus, who chaired the national search to replace the outgoing Kent Stirling. “Many of the challenges facing Florida horsemen parallel those we’ve faced and met in Illinois during the past six years, a tumultuous time,” Berman said. “I’m looking forward to applying that experience and working with the dedicated FHBPA board to fully explore all the exciting opportunities Florida holds as one of the major focal points of the world’s horse racing market.” During his time at the ITHA, Berman oversaw offices at Arlington and Hawthorne. He was responsible for purse-contract negotiation with both racetracks, as well as for the direction of the ITHA’s legislative efforts, including the drafting and lobbying of gaming legislation. He represented the ITHA at all Illinois Racing Board meetings and helped create “Galloping Out,” a non-profit dedicated to finding new homes for retired thoroughbreds. A graduate of the Illinois Institute of Technology, Chicago-Kent, Berman was awarded his Juris Doctor in 1982. Prior to that, he attended North Dakota State University, where he earned a bachelor of science in pharmacy and minored in journalism. ■
Improvise: Gary Stevens in the 2013 Preakness – A jockey has to be ready to adjust strategy on the fly when a race begins. The way the horses come out of the gate might make Plan A impossible to execute, and Plan B might not be feasible, either. Gary Stevens came up with the right adjustments when he won the Preakness on Oxbow in 2013. Fast Out of the Gate; Nobody Better Than P. Val – Patrick Valenzuela had a knack for getting horses to break sharply. His mount often would spring out of the gate before the other horses. Valenzuela said he had a simple key to a fast start. Calvin BoRail Learned His Lessons Early – As a young jockey years ago, Calvin Borel learned the importance of saving ground from his brother, trainer Cecil Borel. The lesson hit home with Calvin, who became known for his rail-riding tactics. Romero and Personal Ensign: A Great Story – Jockey Randy Romero’s desperate move at the five-sixteenths pole changed the course of the Breeders’ Cup Distaff in 1988 at Churchill Downs. When Romero hit Personal Ensign left-handed, she finally found her footing on a muddy track and was able to take off after front-running Winning Colors. Personal Ensign’s determination, and Romero’s, took over in the stretch, and one of the greatest races in Breeders’ Cup history was on. THE FLORIDA HORSE • FEBRUARY 2016 17

XY Jet, de Gelfenstein Farm, entró en el círculo de ganadores por tercera vez consecutiva y también logró su primera victoria en una carrera clásica al imponerse, desde la salida hasta la llegada, en la Mr. Prospector de grado 3, en Gulfstream Park, el sábado. Fue la
edición 63 de la Mr. Prospector de seis furlongs con premios por un total de USD 102,000 para siete caballos de tres años y más. Hijo del semental de Ocala Stud Kantharos y de la yegua Soldiersingsblues (hija de Lost Soldier), XY Jet compitió como la segunda opción con 2-1 detrás de su compañero criado en Florida Stallwalkin’ Dude. Este último tenía una apuesta de 6-5, después de su victoria el 5 de diciembre en la Claiming Crown Rapid Transit, en Gulfstream. Bajo el mando del jinete Emisael Jaramillo, XY Jet salió disparado desde la salida y le sacó un cuerpo y medio de ventaja al 18 THE FLORIDA HORSE • FEBRUARY 2016
improbable ganador Singanothersong mientras Stallwalkin’ Dude quedó relegado más atrás, en tercer lugar. Después de un rápido cuarto de milla de 0:21.92, XY Jet se impuso a Singanothersong y a Stallwalkin’ Dude en la primera vuelta y comenzó a despegarse de sus contrincantes en la recta. Después de una media milla de 0:44.29, XY Jet le había sacado al resto de los caballos una ventaja de siete cuerpos, que se extendió a 10 cuerpos en la recta final. Al momento de la llegada, XY Jet se impuso por un margen de nueve cuerpos y un cuarto sobre el dúo de caballos criados en el establecimiento Jacks or Better Farm: Grande Shores (segundo) y C. Zee (tercero). Stallwalkin’ Dude quedó en quinto lugar, mientras que Singanothersong salió sexto. XY Jet, entrenado por Jorge Navarro, detuvo el contador en 1:08.56 en la pista principal, marca que se consideró rápida. Criado en Florida por Didier Plasencia, XY Jet comenzó con su racha ganadora en septiembre, cuando ganó la carrera de reclamo para principiantes de USD 20,000 en Monmouth Park. Más tarde, reapareció el 11 de noviembre en Gulfstream Park West, donde se impuso en una carrera de reclamo de USD 60,000, también de seis furlongs. Había probado su suerte en carreras de grado antes, pero solo había logrado un segundo puesto en la Hutchenson Stakes de grado 3, en Gulfstream, en enero pasado, donde se impuso Barbados, y un agridulce sexto lugar en la Swale de grado 2 en marzo, después de un comienzo lento. Se le otorgó un descanso considerable antes de regresar a la victoria en Monmouth en septiembre. XY Jet ha sido dos veces una de las estrellas de la Ocala Breeders Sale. Primero, fue consignado por Two Sharp Hats en la 2013 Winter Mixed Sale antes de que lo vendieran por USD 56,000 en la 2013 August Yearling Sale. “Siempre creímos que era un buen caballo. Creo que lo apresuramos a veces, y no estaba preparado para hacer lo que hacemos ahora”, declaró el flamante entrenador Jorge
Navarro. “Creo que es un buen caballo; mi próximo Private Zone”. Private Zone era un caballo de velocidad ganador de grado 1 con Navarro, que se hizo cargo del entrenamiento de XY Jet a comienzos de este año. “Las últimas dos veces que corrió en Gulfstream Park tuvo varios traspiés. Ese es mi principal inconveniente con él”, aseguró Navarro. “Ahora tiene tres años. Está más maduro. Le dije al jinete que simplemente diera las órdenes y lo dejara correr. Prestaremos atención a su desempeño. Esperemos que todo salga bien; delinearemos nuestra estrategia en función de ello”. Jaramillo también afirmó que tenía la seguridad de que XY Jet se impondría en la Mr. Prospector. “Tenía mucha confianza en el caballo hoy”, aseguró Jaramillo. “Me impresionó la forma en que corrió la vez pasada, y estoy incluso más sorprendido con lo que hizo hoy”. ■

propietario de Pleasant Acres. “Es hijo de un juvenil campeón de la línea de sementales más prolífica del mundo, y desciende de una destacada familia de yeguas. Además, es un animal imponente”. Bajo las directivas del entrenador Bill Mott, Amira’s Prince comenzó a competir en Irlanda, antes de mudarse a los Estados Unidos, donde ganó sus primeras cuatro carreras. Después de haber sorteado un par de condicionales en Gulfstream, Amira’s Prince logró su debut en carreras clásicas en la Mac Diarmida S. (G2) de USD 150,000, en Gulfstream, donde se impuso por 3 ¾ cuerpos y ganó un 101 Beyer. Continuó su racha con una victoria en la siguiente carrera clásica: la Mervin H. Muniz Jr. H. (G2) de USD 400,000 en Fair Grounds. Allí obtuvo un 100 Beyer y se posicionó entre los mejores caballos de hierba de América del Norte. Amira’s Prince regresó al año siguiente para ocupar el tercer puesto en la Gulfstream Park Turf H. (G1) de USD 300,000, detrás de los ganadores de grado 1 Lochte e Imagining. Asimismo, salió segundo por un cuello al defender su título en la Muniz Jr. H. (G2). Habiendo participado en 10 de un total de 15 clásicos, Amira’s Prince se retiró con una ganancia final de USD 542,920 para sus propietarios: Wachtel Stable, Eclipse Thoroughbred Partners, Gary Barber y Brous Stable. “Cuando Amira’s Prince se encontraba en la cima de su carrera, en las últimas dos temporadas, era uno de los mejores ejemplares de hierba del país”, aseguró Mott. “No era un caballo con mucha suerte y, por ello, no logró ganar un clásico de grado 1. Era un caballo muy estratégico y mostró su calidad en algunas carreras importantes, incluido un cero en Thoro-Graph que, según me dijeron, fue una de las marcas más rápidas para un caballo de hierba en 2014.

tuvieran posibilidades de imponerse al comienzo: compitieron cabeza a cabeza durante el primer cuarto de 0:21.40. Jewel of a Cat alcanzó a la delantera antes de que el grupo llegara a dar la primera vuelta y corrió por fuera del par en riña. La primera en quedar rezagada fue Silver Sashay, mientras que Aquinnah resultó ser una oponente mucho más difícil de vencer y se mantuvo en el ruedo hasta después de haber cruzado el décimo sexto poste. A medida que Aquinnah se debilitaba, la yegua importada de Chile Tesalina se impulsó junto al barandal y, sin suerte, intentó superar a Jewel of a Cat mientras Catching Fireflies se aproximaba con velocidad. Jewel of a Cat tuvo el impulso suficiente para mantener la ventaja en una final con cuatro competidores. Tesalina superó a Catching Fireflies por un cuello, mientras que Aquinnah quedó medio cuerpo atrás. Silver Sashay perdió velocidad y terminó última. El tiempo de la carrera, que se disputó en una pista firme, fue de 0:55.34, y la media milla se corrió en 0:43.34. La ganadora, hija de Wildcat Heir y de la yegua Marbleous Routine (hija de Pentelicus), fue criada por el Sr. y la Sra. Hersche. El cheque de USD 45,105 obtenido gracias al triunfo del domingo aumentó las ganancias totales de Jewel of a Cat a USD 435,695.

Life Imitates Art primero en Dania Beach El 2 de enero finalizó una frustrante serie de segundos lugares para el prometedor ejemplar de tres años criado en Florida Life Imitates Art, que finalmente se impuso y se quedó, por una cabeza, con la Dania Beach (G3) de USD 100,000 en Gulfstream Park. La carrera sobre hierba de 7 ½ furlongs enfrentó a 10 caballos de tres años, tres de los cuales comenzaron la carrera con apuestas inferiores a la 7-2 de Life Imitates Art. Habiendo iniciado la carrera en séptimo lugar, Life Imitates Art nunca estuvo más de
cinco cuerpos atrás mientras Copingaway (169-1) y Duffle Bag (35-1) llevaban la delantera con una media milla relajada, con marcas de 0:24.47 y 0:49.40. Isotherm, que había vencido a Life Imitates Art en Saratoga el 22 de agosto, cuando cada uno de ellos disputaba su segundo clásico, venía siguiendo de cerca a los primeros dos y, cuando la delantera perdió impulso, ocupó el primer puesto de forma breve, ya que Life Imitates Art, después de un momento de ansiedad para el jinete Joel Rosario, lo superó por el barandal. “Salió perfecto”, aseguró Rosario. “Traté de ahorrar algo de terreno; había muchos caballos. Esperaba el momento en que el caballo delante de nosotros se cerrara para poder salir por el exterior. Sin embargo, decidió permanecer en el exterior. Estaba buscando un poco de espacio”. Isotherm y Life Imitates Art pelearon cabeza a cabeza al llegar al poste del furlong y ofrecieron un espectáculo apasionante para

quistó con un margen de 9 ¾ cuerpos. Después del primer paseo posterior a la competición, una radiografía reveló una astilla de hueso y, dado que Jacks or Better ponía al ruedo una camada de talentosos caballos de dos años durante el verano, Gold consideró que era mejor darle un descanso a Awesome Banner. “No había nada que preguntarse; había que resolver”, continuó y agregó que la victoria de Hutcheson valida la noble estimación de sus conexiones. “Es difícil medir lo que sucederá con un caballo de dos años, pero la forma en que se desempeñan estos caballos jóvenes es más importante que el marcador. Lo hizo sin esfuerzo; regresó y entrenó como si nada”. Noholdingback Bear obtuvo el segundo lugar en la Hutcheson, un cuerpo delante de Sheikh of Sheikhs. El programa de carreras de Gulfstream para los caballos de tres años incluye la Holy Bull (G2) de USD 350,000 el 30 de enero y la Fountain of Youth (G2) de USD 400,000 el 27 de febrero; ambas son de 1 1/16 millas. “Dada la conducta [de Awesome Banner], no creo que la distancia sea un problema”, aseguró Gold. “Corre con velocidad porque lo entrenamos para ello y lo cabalgamos para ello, pero nunca ha mostrado problema alguno. Ciertamente, intentaremos ponerlo a prueba en la recta”. Awesome Banner es el quinto potro galardonado de la yegua Miranda Stands de Zamindar.

la multitud. Finalmente, Life Imitates Art sacó ventaja. Isotherm se impuso ante Urban Bourbon por 1 ½ cuerpos. Life Imitates Art ganó los seis furlongs con una marca de 1:13.27, mientras que Isotherm cruzó la meta en 1:30.42. El ganador de rostro resplandeciente pagó USD 9 y ganó unos USD 58,900, que incrementaron sus ganancias totales a USD 150,750. “Realmente se conectó”, exclamó el flamante entrenador Chad Brown. “Joel entendió al caballo a la perfección y le permitió avanzar ahorrando terreno. Cuando le dio indicaciones al caballo, este respondió sin problemas. Estoy muy orgulloso de él. Siempre supimos que era uno de nuestros mejores ejemplares”.
Life Imitates Art es hijo de More Than Ready y de Habiboo, hija de Unbridled’s Song. Siendo un potro de USD 175,000, fue criado por Hardacre Farm y es propiedad de Klaravich Stables y William Lawrence. Habiboo, con un valor de USD 210,000, tuvo cinco hijos que han competido en carreras. Cada uno de ellos ha obtenido, al menos, unos USD 100,000. Transparent, su segundo potro, se vendió por USD 725,000: ganó más de un cuarto de millón de dólares. Habiboo es media hermana de Street Boss, que ha ganado unos USD 831,800. La tercera madre de este es media hermana de Running Stag, que ha acumulado unos USD 1.6 millones en ganancias. Life Imitates Art había finalizado segundo en las cuatro carreras anteriores a la Dania Beach. Llegó a la carrera después de haber perdido por un cuello con Swagger Jagger en la Pulpit del 28 de noviembre, en Gulfstream Park West. En su carrera anterior, en Belmont, había quedado rezagado por un hocico, pero logró ocupar el primer puesto después de que el ganador quedara descalificado. Salió segundo en Saratoga, antes de enfrentarse a Isotherm por segunda vez. La Dania Beach fue la primera carrera de Rosario con Life Imitates Art. Irad Ortiz había sido su jinete en las primeras tres carreras, y Aaron Gryder lo había montado en la Pulpit. Las cinco carreras de este caballo fueron sobre hierba. Brown indicó que mantendría a Life Imitates Art compitiendo sobre hierba en Gulfstream, que será sede de la Kitten’s Joy de USD 100,000 el 30 de enero y de la Palm Beach Stakes (G3) de USD 150,000 el 27 de febrero. ■
La venerable yegua African Rose alcanza la marca de medio millón La yegua de siete años criada en Florida African Rose mostró que tiene un gran futuro por delante el 2 de enero, cuando se impuso ante sus rivales y obtuvo la Bold Ego de USD 65,000 por 2 ½ cuerpos en Sunland Park.

clásica en Bold Ego, un evento de 5 ½ furlongs en el que salió segunda en 2014 (perdió por un cuello) y sexta en 2012 (cuando tenía tres años). Al participar en su carrera clásica 40, African Rose ya había mostrado su afinidad con Sunland Park, ya que había ganado nueve de sus 18 carreras anteriores allí, incluidas las tres ediciones de la Harry Henson Stakes. Después de haber ocupado el séptimo puesto en la Zia Distaff el 25 de noviembre, se postuló como la cuarta opción mientras el público tenía dificultades para separar los talentos de Chanteline (9-5) y Belleofthebeach (2-1). Las improbables ganadoras Small Moves y Cassy Sue fijaron el ritmo mientras Enrique Gómez ocupaba la montura de African Rose y competía justo detrás del muro de caballos que avanzaba hacia la curva más lejana. Gómez tenía gran cantidad de caballos delante, y era evidente que, si aparecía un hueco, su yegua estaría más que dispuesta a abrirse camino por allí. El hueco se les presentó cuando los caballos restantes se alineaban en torno a la meta, y African Rose reaccionó con un golpe de velocidad y avanzó hasta quedar en el primer puesto.
Chanteline quedó segunda, y Cassy Sue mantuvo el tercer lugar, 1 ¼ cuerpos detrás. Bajo las órdenes del entrenador Miguel Hernández, completó la distancia en 1:03.31.

Florida-breds Stage spectacular Sunshine Millions show between storms at Gulfstream HALLANDALE BEACH – pair of violent storms savaged South Florida the night before and following but their timing was perfect and the skies were clear during racing hours of Jan. 16 $1.05 million Sunshine Millions program for Florida-breds. One would be hard-pressed to find a more competitive renewal of the six-race celebration of Sunshine State breeding and racing than that presented by Gulfstream Park this year.
A CLASSIC
LESLIE MARTIN PHOTO
The $250,000 program finale went to Mexikoma, who faced an impressive cast and who had dropped three of his last four races. Yet, despite the quality competition and an apparent downturn in form, Mexikoma went off at 6-5, thanks in large part to his owner and trainer’s confidence, and to the numbers assigned to the 5-year-old by the “sheets.” Smart money was rewarded when Mexikoma came from sixth to grind out a 1½-length win over the game Mr. Jordan. It was 12 lengths back to third-place Catholic Cowboy. Defending Classic winner Sr. Quisqueyano grabbed an early lead in the 1 1/8-mile event, hitting the first quarter-mile in :23.55 with Mr. Jordan and 93-1 Morgans Harbour in closest attendance, just a length off the leader. Mexikoma, who overcame traffic difficulties early, was sixth at that point with the red-hot Saraguaro seventh and Catholic Cowboy eighth as less than four lengths separated them from the front-runner. This wasn’t Sr. Quisqueyano’s day and he began a descent that resulted in his being eased, but Mr. Jordan was up to the task and he spurted to the front, opening two lengths on the turn. Mexikoma also made a strong move and the top pair quickly separated from the field, the gray Mr. Jordan holding on and his rider, Joe Bravo, race riding, taking the rapidly closing Mexikoma wide in the run to the wire.
Johnny Velazquez flashed his Hall of Fame credentials, never giving up and pushing his mount past their formidable opponent in a long drive. They hit the wire in 1:48.19. “He broke pretty sharply in the first turn, and I had to take a little hold of him when they came over. I got squeezed out of there on the first turn,” Velazquez said. “I went to the outside and I went to follow Joe Bravo, which I thought was the horse to beat. Once I was there, I didn’t worry so much.” His rider’s confidence was a reflection of that held by Team Valor captain Barry Irwin and trainer Michael Dilger. Irwin said that, just prior to the Classic, Dilger had asked him to make sure the horse was nominated to the $10 million Dubai World Cup at Meydan Racecourse March 26.
24 THE FLORIDA HORSE • FEBRUARY 2016
SunshineMillions.qxp_Florida Horse_template 2/1/16 11:28 AM Page 25
Don’t Disappoint After the race, Dilger said of his horse, “He still has a lot of stuff to do, but we’re thinking about it. [The Classic] had been the target for him for quite a while. He’s won so many of his races closing from so far behind but that style will make you nervous here at Gulfstream. I was glad Johnny rode him the way he did.” The Classic was Mexikoma’s fourth win from 11 starts. The winner’s purse of $147,250 more than doubled his career earnings to $290,554. “He’s got a lot of try and even when he doesn’t win, it’s not because he didn’t try,” Dilger said. “He’s a horse that’s a two-turn horse. He’s always going to be running best at the end. We’re delighted.” Although he has been lightly raced, Mexikoma was precocious enough to have run in the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile, finishing sixth to New Year’s Day at Santa Anita in 2013. He came into the Classic off a fifth-place finish to Valid, Madefromlucky and Mr. Jordan in the Hal’s Hope at Gulfstream Dec. 12.
Mr. Jordan’s performance was well appreciated by his trainer, Eddie Plesa. “Joe put him in position. You’ve got to give the horse that won a lot of credit … he ran him down and my horse was about 10 lengths clear of the others. I was really pleased with his race, or as pleased as you can be without actually winning.” Mexikoma, a son of Birdstone, is the first foal out of the 10-year-old Toccet mare Toccet Over. His third dam is the multiple stakes winner Sabin. Bred by Hickstead Farm, Mexikoma was purchased for $55,000 at the April, 2013, OBS auction after being consigned by Wavertree Stables. —Mike Mullaney DISTAFF

betting public wrong in the end, however, as the 4-yearold filly went on to win the Distaff by a head over the favorite and seven others in the seven-furlong event for older fillies and mares. At the start, Legal Laura in post 4 bumped Flutterby in gate 5 but Flutterby got up to vie for the early lead with Winning for Sarah and Dogwood Trail. Meanwhile Mom’z Laugh and jockey Javier Castellano were content to sit behind those three in fourth as they went the first quarter-mile in a quick :22.75. By the time they reached the half-mile pole, Flutterby took the lead from Dogwood Trail on the outside and Winning for Sarah on the rail as Mom’z Laugh was beginning to move on the outside. After a half-mile in :45.02, Dogwood Trail was racing in tandem with Flutterby with Winning For Sarah now falling back in third. Castellano moved Mom’z Laugh to the outside part of the track as they neared the stretch and took over the lead heading for home. By that time, You Bought Her ranged up from far back but when she reached Mom’z Laugh, began to lug in as those two bumped repeatedly down the stretch. Mom’z Laugh would not be deterred, however, and held off the scrappy You Bought Her to win the Distaff by a narrow head in a time of 1:22.96. Those two were 5½ lengths ahead of Legal Laura in third. Mom’z Laugh was bred in Florida by Curtis Mikkelson & Patricia Horth, now races for A Blanco Holding

and is trained by Marcus Vitali. She is by Leroidesanimaux out of Cajun Dawn, by Awesome Again. “She took a long time to mature,” Vitali said of the 4year-old Mom’z Laugh, who picked up her first stakes win in the Distaff. “She had a lot of lumps, bumps, growing pains as a young horse. I’m not the guy to rush 2-year-olds. “It was quite the battle. I was a little worried for a minute there. Javier did everything perfect today—he always makes a difference, that’s why he’s at the top of the game right now. I think everything went really well. We decided to take her back a bit further off the pace today, hoping she didn’t bounce off that last effort. This filly came back when that other horse came up, she ran a bang-up race. I was screaming, ‘wire, wire!’” It was her sixth win from 17 starts and she earned $119,040 to push her bankroll to $667,650. —Brock Sheridan TURF
Another chapter was written into the fairy tale saga of a talented young horsewoman and her aged and trusty gelding after 8-year-old Manchurian High put in another stirring performance to win another edition of the $150,000 Sunshine Millions Turf. It’s also a rags to riches tale: Manchurian High, a son of The Daddy out of Corredor’s Wind, by El Corredor, bred by Greg Norman, was gaveled out of

the OBS ring for $1,000 in the August, 2009 sale. Saturday’s victory was his 10th in 40 starts. His career earnings stand at $479,013. Current owner and trainer Lilli Kurtinecz began her connection with Manchurian High when she was working in John “JB” Secor’s barn in Maryland. Upon their introduction the horse’s form immediately improved, but when Kurtinecz took a sabbatical to travel, the horse’s form went south. Upon her return, the horse picked up again. A pattern was emerging. Manchurian High had been running in $20,000 claimers for Secor and, between her own account and with help from her parents, Kurtinecz raised the money to buy “Manch” from Secor. Since then he has gone from claimer to stakes horse, and Secor remains one of the horse’s biggest fans. “‘JB’ has been a good sport through all this,” Kurtinecz said. “We’re great friends ... we talk on the phone about four or five times a day.” The defending Sunshine Millions Turf champion was sent off at 7-1 due to his recent form, which saw him win only once in his eight starts since last year’s Turf, and due to the high quality of competitors assembled for this year’s renewal: Among those opposing him were the Turf Preview winner Old Time Hockey, last year’s champion Florida-bred turf horse Reporting Star, and the gradedstakes placed even-money favorite, Fundamental. Cement Clement controlled the early running, setting comfortable fractions over a turf course labeled “good.” Reporting Star had moved into second, a length behind the leader, after three quarters in 1:14.07 while Manchurian High gained along the rail. With a slow pace in the books and five horses still in front of him, Manchurian High’s chances were bleak,
but Luis Saez gambled and chose to stay inside instead of swinging his mount out. Saez’ faith was rewarded, Manchurian High gobbled up the ground and surged by the always-difficult-to-rundown Reporting Star. The winning margin was a halflength. “He comes from behind and he always comes running, but he leaves himself so much to do. Sometimes it kind of scares me,” Kurtinecz said. “I don’t want Luis to ride him overconfidently and get him stuck (inside), but he is very confident in him. I don’t say anything. Those guys are a team, so [I tell them] ‘Just go get it!’” Fundamental rallied late and finished 1¾ lengths behind the runner-up. Cement Clement faded fast to finish seventh. Manchurian High paid $16.40 and completed the 1 1/16-mile Turf in 1:44.89. Manchurian High’s second dam is Ka Lae, a daughter of turf champion Hawaii and winner of Delaware Park’s Rosenna on the turf. His fifth dam, Quick Touch, produced the stakes-winning fillies Sorceress and Capelet as well as stakes winner Count Amber and champion Quill. Kurtinecz, with tears of joy and a good bit of humor, joked about a Sunshine Millions Turf three-peat next year (“Do I get the trophy if I win it three times in a row? A 9-year-old, is that a record?”) and said her old warhorse, “although strong and sound,” will get a rest. “He doesn’t train that well in Florida,” she said. “He doesn’t have (the scenery) options here that he has elsewhere. If he doesn’t want to train, he won’t train. I don’t train him, he trains himself, and he trains me.” Kurtinecz, who gallops the horse, has freshened Manchurian High by sending him over the over jumps on
Florida-bred Manchurian High triumphs in the Turf for the second straight year.

XY Jet taught the ABCs of speed to a crack field assembled for the $150,000 Sunshine Millions Sprint, scoring by 4½ lengths over Wildcat Red, the 2014 Florida-bred Horse of the Year, and the ease with which he beat a good group had winning trainer Jorge Navarro thinking well beyond the winner’s circle of this race. “He’ll get a break, but Dubai is out there. Dubai is definitely out there,” he said after the race. One of the supporting but highly lucrative fixtures supporting the Dubai World Cup program at Meydan Racecourse is the $2 million Golden Shaheen (UAE). Past winners include the Gulfstream-campaigned Saratoga County and the Eclipse-winning Bridlewood stallion Benny the Bull. The pro-tem leader of the sprint division is Runhappy, winner of the Breeders’ Cup Sprint (G1) at Keeneland Oct. 31, winner of the Malibu (G1) at Santa Anita and winner of the Eclipse championship at Saturday night’s award dinner hosted by Gulfstream.

Navarro said he won’t be ducking the champion. “This horse could run with Runhappy, absolutely,” he said. “I’m not saying that out of cockiness, but this horse could definitely run with him.” Wildcat Red’s trainer Jose Garoffalo had been expecting a top effort from his horse and he got. First out of the gate, Wildcat Red ceded the lead to XY Jet, who broke from the extreme outside, while El Botas took up the chase. XY Jet carried the field through brutally fast fractions, tripping the timer in :43.96 for a half-mile after an opening quarter in :21.71. XY Jet’s two-length lead at the quarter pole became a 4½-length margin as the field straightened in the run for the wire. Wildcat Red, second in the weights at 121, took up the chase but to no avail: Unable to gain on the winner, he acquitted himself well and was clearly second best, finishing 3½ lengths clear of third-place C. Zee, who carried 119 pounds. “‘Red’ ran a hell of a race. He did his job,” said Garoffallo. “The race went as expected. For the first time off a layoff it was a great race for him. We’re very happy,” he said. “That horse is too fast. That’s a super horse. He went in 43 and 55 (seconds); that’s not easy to follow. For the first time off the layoff, it was a great race for him. We’re very happy.” Off at 3-5, XY Jet hit the wire in 1:08.58. Highweighted at 123 pounds – most of it in the form of the

The 4-year-old gray gelding has won five of his 13 career starts, including his last four races. In his last effort, the Grade 3 Mr. Prospector Stakes here on Dec. 19, XY Jet beat a good field that also included the durable Florida-bred Grande Shores and C. Zee. Incidentally, Golden Shaheen winner Saratoga County prepped for that victory with a win in the 2005 Mr. Prospector. Didier Plasencia bred XY Jet, a son of Kantharos from the Lost Soldier mare Soldiersingsblues. He was sold as a yearling for $56,000 at OBS in 2013. A threetime winner on the track, Soldiersingsblues descends from an otherwise undistinguished family.

Lori’s Store finished fourth behind winner Pink Poppy in the 2015 Sunshine Millions Filly and Mare Turf but got her revenge when she took the 2016 version. The $150,000 Filly and Mare Turf saw a field of six Florida-bred distaffers go 11⁄16 miles on the Gulfstream
Park turf course after a late scratch by Daddy’s Boo. Longshot Naval Command set the early pace in the Filly and Mare Turf with Unbridled Courage another length back in second with Comet Sixty Two third and Lori’s Store fourth as they raced out of the clubhouse turn and onto the backstretch while covering the first quarter-mile in :24.12. The field galloped toward the far turn without changing their running order but once they passed the halfmile in :49.75, the top four began to bunch together and raced around the turn four abreast. Naval Command had the inside track but began to tire as Unbridled Courage and Comet Sixty Two ran between horses with Lori’s Store on the outside. Unbridled Courage took over from the two path as Comet Sixty Two and Lori’s Store were also catching their best stride after a half-mile in :49.75. As they approached the three-sixteenth pole, Lori’s Store took the lead and began to open up on Unbridled Courage and Comet Sixty Two. Meanwhile E B Ryder began her late run.

Noble Prince had the inside track around the turn as Katie’s Kiss raced three-wide with Jewel of a Cat just to her outside. As the field ran down the stretch, it turned into a cavalry charge with anyone having a chance but Amelia’s Wild Ride was moving best of all and Summation Time was also making a late run after being bumped at the start. Amelia’s Wild Ride hit the finish in :58.51, and a half-length ahead of Summation Time in second with Jewel of a Cat third. Amelia’s Wild Ride earned $88,350 for his 10th career victory from 32 starts. He was bred in Florida by Red Oak Stable and is by D’wildcat out of the Hook and Latter mare Amelia Island. —Brock Sheridan

After the race, Wolfson was rather reserved about the victory. “There was really not a point in the race that I was concerned,” the trainer said. “I’ve won this race a few times before.” Lori’s Store is a 6-year-old daughter of El Prado out of Big Promise, by Rahy so she was bred to like the turf. She was bred in Florida by Leonard Lavin’s Glen Hill Farm. It was a fitting start to the day for Lavin, who was honored with an Award of Merit at the Eclipse Awards ceremony later that night at Gulfstream. It was the seventh win from 27 starts for Lori’s Store whose last victory came in the $75,000 Soaring Softly Stakes at Gulfstream on Aug. 8, With the $92,070 winner’s check, the 6-year-old gray mare increased her earnings to $327,865. —Brock Sheridan

It’s all about Champ, Zayat and Baffert accorded year-end honors By BROCK SHERIDAN HALLANDALE BEACH – riple Crown winner American Pharoah dominated the 45th annual Eclipse Awards here Jan. 16 in much the same way he dominated his opponents on the track as he was unanimously named the Horse of the Year and the champion 3-year-old male. A winner of seven of eight starts this year with his only blemish coming when second to Keen Ice in the Grade 1 Travers Stakes, American Pharoah not only was the star of thoroughbred racing but put the sport back on the front page of the news by becoming the first horse to win the Kentucky Derby presented by Yum! Brands (G1), XPressbet.com Preakness Stakes (G1) and Belmont Stakes (G1) since Florida-bred Affirmed in 1978. He also became the first horse in history to win the Triple Crown and the Breeders’ Cup Classic (G1), giving him what is now known as the Grand Slam of racing. He also won the William Hill Haskell Invitational Stakes (G1), the Arkansas Derby (G1), the Rebel Stakes (G2). The son of Pioneerof the Nile and the Yankee Gentleman mare Littleprincessemma also became the first horse since Florida-bred Affirmed to be named champion 2-year-old male, champion 3-year-

old male and Horse of the Year at age 3. Owned and bred by Ahmed Zayat’s Zayat Stables, LLC, American Pharoah has since been retired and will stand at stud at Ashford Stud for a fee of $200,000. During his illustrious career, American Pharoah amassed $8,650,300 from nine wins in 11 races. His only other defeat came in his first career start when fifth in a Del Mar maiden special weight. His impact on the sport also carried over to The Eclipse Awards as his Hall of Fame trainer Bob Baffert took home the Eclipse trophy as the year’s top trainer and Zayat picked up two more Eclipse Awards for owner and breeder. The Belmont Stakes was also named the NTRA Moment of the Year. His jockey, Victor Espinoza was the only member of the team to not win an Eclipse Award as Javier Castellano was named the year’s champion jockey. Tyler Gaffalione, who currently has his tack at Gulfstream Park, was named the champion apprentice jockey. The night began with the Eclipse Award for 2-yearold male that went to Sentient Jet Breeders’ Cup Juvenile (G1) winner Nyquist. Trained by Doug O’Neill for Reddam Racing LLC, the son of Uncle Mo also was undefeated in five starts, winning the Grade 1 Front Runner Stakes, the Grade 1 Del Mar Futurity and the Grade 2 Best Pal Stakes.
American Pharoah’s early training was with the McKathan Brothers in Florida and he carries historical Florida bloodlines.

Taking home the Eclipse for champion 2-year-old female was Songbird, who also went through the year winning all of her four starts. Trained by Jerry Hollendorfer for Fox Hill Farm, Songbird won the Hands Winery Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies (G1) to cap off a year that also included wins in the Chandelier Stakes (G1) and the Del Mar Debutante.

2015 Florida-bred Champions
By JOANN GUIDRY
E
very racing season has its shining stars. For the Florida Thoroughbred industry, nine racehorses garnered that designation to be named 2015 Florida-bred champions. As a group, the elite nine posted 22 stakes wins, including an impressive 13 graded stakes tallies. And of that latter number, four were Grade 1 stakes victories. The juvenile division is represented by graded stakes winner Uncle Vinny and multiple stakes winner Ballet Diva, the Florida-bred champion 2-year-old colt and filly, respectively. In the sophomore class, multiple graded stakes winner El Kabeir secured the title of Florida-bred champion 3-year-old colt/gelding. Joining him in that division was graded stakes winner Dogwood Trail, who earned the Florida-bred champion 3-year-old filly crown. Wild Dude, a two-time Grade 1 winner on the season, was named the Florida-bred champion older male and male sprinter. Millionaire and multiple Grade I winner Sheer Drama took the Florida-bred champion older female title. Completing the outstanding 2015 champions class are: multiple stakes winner Flutterby, Florida-bred champion female sprinter; multiple graded stakes winner World Approval, Florida-bred champion turf horse; and
Multiple Grade 1 stakes winners Wild Dude and Sheer Drama headline the 2015 class of Florida-bred champions.

graded stakes winner Strict Compliance, Floridabred champion female turf horse. The 2015 Florida-bred champions were determined by points accumulated in blacktype stakes competition during the year-long FTBOA Chase To The Championship. Any Florida-bred who wins a Breeders’ Cup championship is automatically named a Florida-bred champion in that division. In addition, 10 bonus points are awarded to any Florida-bred juvenile colt or filly sweeping a division of the Florida Sire Stakes in determining the champions in the juvenile divisions. In the case of a year-end tie in points in any division, graded earnings are the tiebreaker. To be eligible for a championship title, a horse must be a Florida-bred registered with the Florida Thoroughbred Breeders’ and Owners’ Association. The Florida-bred Horse of the Year, Florida Stallion and Broodmare of the Year, as well as other year-end awards are voted on by the FTBOA Board of Directors and/or based on season-ending statistics.
UNCLE VINNY 2015 FLORIDA-BRED CHAMPION 2-YEAR-OLD COLT/GELDING Becoming a successful racehorse takes both talent and good luck. Uncle Vinny possessed both on his way to being named 2015 Florida-bred champion 2-year-old colt/gelding. In but five starts, the precocious Uncle Mo colt posted a graded stakes win, as well as a graded stakes placing to claim the title. Bred by Gilbert G. Campbell, Uncle Vinny opened his career in winning fashion. Owned by Starlight Racing, the Todd Pletcher trainee broke his maiden at first asking on May 21 at Belmont Park. He was much the best, winning by four and-a-half lengths over Condo King with Cantrell third. Winning time for the five-furlong sprint was an impressive :58.70. Uncle Vinny’s talent and good luck came into play in the Sanford Stakes (G3) on July 25 at Saratoga. His late outside rally kept him out of a scrum between Magna Light and Percolator. When the stewards ruled that winner Magna Light had veered out about five paths just past

the eighth pole and interfered with Percolator. Uncle Vinny, who had passed Percolator a halflength at the wire, was declared the winner. Percolator retained second and Magna Light was disqualified to third. In his next start at Saratoga in the Hopeful Stakes (G1) on Sept. 9, Uncle Vinny finished third to Ralis. Magna Light was second. Uncle Vinny wrapped up his first season of racing with $191,500 in earnings. Uncle Vinny was consigned by Francis and Barbara Vanlangendonck’s Summerfield Sales, agent for Campbell, to the 2014 Keeneland September yearling sale. The colt, out of stakes winner and blacktype producer Arealhotlover, by Untuttable, was bought for $175,000 by Starlight Racing. The latter is a partnership group managed by Jack and Laurie Wolf with Don and Barbara Lucarelli.

2015 FLORIDA-BRED CHAMPION 2-YEAR-OLD FILLY There’s precocious and then there’s freaky precocious as in Ballet Diva, who was named the 2015 Florida-bred champion 2-year-old filly. Need evidence? Fred and Jane Brei’s Jacks Or Better Farm homebred broke her maiden by 12 and-a-quarter lengths in her first start. In her second start, she won a stakes race. Ballet Diva then added two more stakes victories and a stakes placing in but six starts. Trainer Stanley Gold saddled Ballet Diva for the first time on May 28 at Gulfstream Park. The filly by Ocala Stud stallion Hear No Evil out of the Nureyev mare Dame Sylvieguilhem immediately raised eyebrows. She rolled to victory in the maiden special weight event by more than 12 lengths, leaving the field in her dust. Her winning time for the five furlongs was a nifty :59.78. A little less than two months later, Ballet Diva earned her initial blacktype with a tally in the Cassidy Stakes on July 5 at Gulfstream Park. This time her margin of victory was four and-a-half lengths over Above Fashion. She stopped the clock in 1:04.06 for the five and-a-half furlongs. After a third to It’s High Time in the Florida Sire Stakes’ Desert Vixen Stakes on Aug. 8, Ballet Diva soon found the winner’s circle again. In the Susan’s Girl (FSS) on Septe. 5, Ballet Diva scored a length victory over Silent Prayer. It’s High Time finished third. Winning time for the seven furlongs was 1:26.12. Ballet Diva closed out her stellar season in

winning fashion. She won the House Party Stakes by two lengths over Dad’s Kiddo on Nov. 28 at Gulfstream Park West. Fabulous Dream was third. Ballet Diva posted a winning time of 1:11.96 for the six furlongs. In six starts on the season, Ballet Diva notched four wins and one third to bank $339,675.
EL KABEIR 2015 FLORIDA-BRED 3-YEAR-OLD CHAMPION COLT/GELDING In Arabic, El Kabeir translates to “The Boss” and the talented gray was definitely in charge of his racing season. A record of three stakes wins, including two graded stakes, earned El Kabeir the title of 2015 Florida-bred champion 3-year-old colt/gelding. Having closed out the 2014 season with a victory in the Kentucky Jockey Club (G2), El Kabeir opened up the 2015 season in similar fashion. On Jan. 3 at Aqueduct, he rolled to a facile win in the Jerome Stakes (G3). His margin of victory was

four and three-quarters lengths over Nasa with General Bellamy third. Winning time for the 8.32 furlongs was 1:44.69. El Kabeir’s next start in the Withers Stakes (G3) on Feb. 7 netted a runner-up finish to Far From Over. The Zayat Stables colorbearer rebounded nicely on March 7 in the Gotham Stakes (G3) at Aqueduct. Trained by John P. Terranova II, El Kabeir won by two and three-quarters lengths over Tiz Shea D with Classy Class taking third. He stopped the clock in 1:45.56 for the 81⁄2 furlongs. Moving on to Laurel Park, El Kabeir continued to show who was the boss. On Nov. 14, he captured the City of Laurel Stakes by a determined nose over Roxbury N Overton. Duff took third. Winning time for the seven-furlong test was 1:23.58. El Kabeir closed out his season with a fourth to Breeders’ Cup Sprint champion Runhappy in the Malibu Stakes (G1) to bank $584,000 for the year. Bred by George and Karen Russell’s Rustlewood Farm, El Kabeir is by Scat Daddy out of the unraced Unbridled’s Song mare Great Venue. Through Summerfield Sales, the Russells consigned El Kabeir to the 2013 OBS August yearling sale. Zayat Stables, with Patrice Miller/EQB
as agent, purchased the colt for $250,000. That price made him the co-sales topper along with Forward Guidance, a colt by Concorde Point out of Better Than Swiss, by Tomorrows Cat.
DOGWOOD TRAIL 2015 FLORIDA-BRED CHAMPION 3-YEAR-OLD FILLY After making only one start as a juvenile and breaking her maiden, Dogwood Trail blossomed as a sophomore runner. Fred and Jane Brei’s Jacks Or Better Farm homebred posted two stakes wins, including a graded stakes, and notched two stakes placings. That was plenty to garner her the title of 2015 Florida-bred champion 3-year-old filly. Trained by Stanley Gold, Dogwood Trail opened her season with an allowance win on Feb. 8 at Gulfstream Park. She followed that with seconds in both the Any Limit Stakes and the restricted Tangelo Handicap. But she was just getting warmed up. On July 5, Dogwood Trail scored her first blacktype stakes victory in the Azalea Handicap (G3) at Gulfstream Park. Winning by a length and a quarter over Huasca, Dogwood Trail covered the seven furlongs in 1:22.12.

WILD DUDE 2015 FLORIDA-BRED CHAMPION OLDER MALE 2015 FLORIDA-BRED CHAMPION MALE SPRINTER With each racing season, Wild Dude has become a wildly successful racehorse. As a 5-yearold, he posted his best season yet with two Grade 1I and one Grade 2 stakes victories. Toss in four graded stakes placings and earnings of $634,667. That resume was more than enough for Wild Dude to be named the 2015 Florida-bred cham-
pion older male and champion male sprinter. Raced by Jerry Hollendorfer and Green Smith, Wild Dude kicked off the 2015 season on Jan. 31 with a third to fellow Florida-bred Conquest Two Step in the Palos Verdes Stakes (G2) at Santa Anita. Then in the San Carlos Stakes (G2) on March 7 at Santa Anita, Wild Dude won by threequarters of a length over Kobe’s Back with Conquest Two Step third. Winning time for the seven furlongs was a nifty 1:21.91. Saddled by Hollendorfer, Wild Dude posted thirds in both the Los Angeles Stakes (G3) and Triple Bend Stakes (G1) at Santa Anita before moving on to Del Mar. It was there that he notched his first Grade 1 of the season, taking the Bing Crosby Stakes (G1) by a length and a quarter on July 26. Second was Masochistic with Kobe’s Back third. Wild Dude stopped the clock in a swift 1:09.51 for the six-furlong sprint. Wild Dude was second to Appealing Tale in the Pat O’Brien Stakes (G2) at Del Mar before returning to Santa Anita.

SHEER DRAMA

2015 FLORIDA-BRED CHAMPION OLDER FEMALE Just call Sheer Drama a late bloomer. As a 5year-old, Sheer Drama lived up to her name with three graded stakes wins, including a pair of Grade 1 victories, and seasonal earnings of $1,234,720. Given those accomplishments, it’s no surprise that Sheer Drama claimed the title of 2015 Florida-bred champion older female. Bred and raced by Harold Queen, Sheer Drama hinted at what was to come with seconds in the Florida Sunshine Millions Distaff and Rampart Stakes (G3) to start off the season. Then on March 21 at Gulfstream Park, she scored the initial graded win of her career in definitive fashion. Sheer Drama captured the Royal Delta Stakes (G2) by an impressive six and half lengths over House Rules. Molly Morgan was third. Winning time for the 81⁄2 furlongs was 1:43.85. The big chestnut mare then made two starts at
Churchill Downs, coming away with another pair of graded placings. In the La Troienne Stakes (G1) on May 1, Sheer Drama was second to Molly Morgan. She followed that with a runner-up finish to Frivolous in the Fleur De Lis Handicap (G2) on June 13. Trainer David Fawkes then shipped Sheer Drama to Delaware Park, where she scored a milestone victory on July 18. She exacted a measure of revenge while posting her first-ever Grade 1 tally, besting Frivolous by two lengths in the Delaware Handicap (G1). Sheer Drama stopped the clock in 2:01.58 for the 10 furlongs. Next stop was Saratoga and a convincing victory in the Personal Ensign Stakes (G1) on Aug. 29. Sheer Drama won by a length and a quarter over Got Lucky with Untapable third. Winning time for the nine furlongs was 1:49.05. Sheer Drama wrapped up her stellar season with a fourth-place to Stopcharginmaria in the Breeders’ Cup Distaff on Oct. 30 at Churchill Downs.

She romped across the finish line first by nine and a quarter lengths in 1:16.04 for the 61⁄2 furlongs. Next up was a solid second to Merry Meadow in the Princess Rooney Stakes (G2) on July 5.

In the Gold Mover Stakes on Aug. 22, the Congrats filly won by three and a quarter lengths over Distinta. Quiet Hour was third. Flutterby stopped the clock in a handy 1:10.05 for the six furlongs.

But his start would garner World Approval his initial career graded stakes victory. On July 7 at Arlington Park, World Approval prevailed by a neck over Crittenden in the American Derby (G3). He stopped the clock in 1:52.92 on the Florida-bred course for the nine furlongs. World Approval A seasoned traveler by now, World Approval moved on to Saratoga and the Saranac Stakes (G3) on Sept. 5. This time he posted a gritty head victory over Money Multiplier to notch his second graded stakes win. Winning time for the nine furlongs was an impressive 1:45.39, just a few ticks off the course record of 1:45.22. On the season, World Approval notched four wins and one second in eight starts to bank $379,300. By Northern Afleet, World Approval is out of the multiple blacktype producer Win Approval, by With Approval. In addition to World Approval, Florida-bred Win Approval is also the dam of aforementioned Florida-bred Eclipse Award champion millionaire Miesque’s Approval, Florida-bred champion millionaire Revved Up and millionaire Za Approval.
STRICT COMPLIANCE 2015 FLORIDA-BRED CHAMPION FEMALE TURF HORSE Strict Compliance checked all the boxes with a season that boasted two stakes wins, including a graded stakes, and a graded stakes-placing while racing at six different tracks. That performance garnered her the title of 2015 Florida-bred champion female turf horse. Raced by Klaravich Stables and William Lawrence, Strict Compliance opened up her sophomore season with back-to-back wins. First, she broke her maiden by a length and a quarter on the turf at Gulfstream Park on March 11. Trainer Chad Brown then shipped the Into Mischief filly to
Keeneland, where she won a turf allowance by a nose on April 19. In next start, this time at Penn National, Strict Compliance became a blacktype stakes winner. She captured the Penn Oaks by half a length on May 30. Her winning time for the mile turf test was 1:34.83. Strict Compliance then followed that victory with a fourth in the Belmont Oaks Invitational (G1) at Belmont Park and a third in the Lake Placid Stakes (G2) at Saratoga. On to Monmouth Park for the Boiling Springs Stakes (G3) on Sept. 5, Strict Compliance did not disappoint. She showed her grittiness in a stretch duel that had her prevailing by a nose over Isabella Sings. Pine Needles was third. Winning time for the nine-furlongs turf test was 1:46.68. The graded stakes win closed out Strict Compliance’s season with four wins and one second for earnings of $287,600. Bred by Mr. and Mrs. Richard and Linda Thompson, Strict Compliance is out of the unraced stakesproducing Grand Slam mare Diva Dyna. Strict Compliance sold three times at public auction before beginning her racing career. At the 2012 OBS October mixed sale, she was purchased as a weanling for $40,000 by Southern Chase Farm. Then as a yearling, she was bought for $75,000 by Justin Casse at the 2013 Fasig-Tipton Kentucky yearling sale. Consigned by Casse Sales to the 2014 OBS June juvenile sale, Strict Compliance fetched $100,000 from Bradley Thoroughbreds, agent. ■

Panelists to Attendees:
Build a Good Team, Good Plan By BROCK SHERIDAN HALLANDALE BEACH – ttendees at the second annual Thoroughbred Ownerview National Owners Conference were given a sound message by panelists here to build a good team of trainers, jockeys and advisors as well as have a detailed business plan in order to achieve the most success with their stables. The conference was sponsored by Keeneland Association, the New York Racing Association, The Stronach Group and Woodbine Entertainment Group, with the Florida Thoroughbred Breeders’ and Owners’ Association, Bridlewood Farm, Double Diamond Farm, FHBPA, Ocala Breeders’ Sales and Ocala Stud also sponsoring events during the conference. On Jan. 12, the first day of the two-day conference, the first session was held in the Sport of Kings room at Gulfstream Park while lunch and afternoon breakout sessions were conducted in the Ten Palms restaurant and the Sport of Kings. Master of Ceremonies Tom Durkin, the retired track announcer for the New York Racing Association, Breeders’ Cup and several national telecasts over the years, opened the session and introduced Frank Stronach, who welcomed the group to Gulfstream Park and spoke of future plans to create big events to attract more owners and fans to the sport. Following Stronach’s welcome, Horse Racing Radio Network president Mike Penna moderated a panel entitled “An Overview of Ownership: What Every Owner Should Know.” Reynolds Bell of Reynolds Bell Thoroughbred Services LLC advised attendees to first set goals and determine what segment of thoroughbred ownership in which they wanted to participate. “What experience do want out of racing?” Bell asked the audience. “Do you want to be in the racing game, the breeding end or do you want to pinhook?” Bell also advised owners to build a business plan for their stable and to treat their stable much like they treat their business. He also warned that the thoroughbred game is a business dealing with nature where horses may or may not perform to expectations or where weather could have an impact on the outcome of the race. Because of these unpredictable factors, he said, owners should prepare for what is not in their control.

He said the FTBOA stresses membership services and provides many avenues to assist new owners as well as those that have been in the business for some time. “These associations can not only provide a great deal of resources to assist you in helping make your stable and your experience a success, but also act as a voice for owners and breeders in Washington [D.C.], state capitals, local governments and at the track.” Rick Nunnely, a member in Stoll Keenon Ogden PLLC’s Lexington office, where he serves as Chair of the Real Estate practice group and is also a member of the Equine practice group, reminded owners that providing for the health and welfare of the horse both during its racing career and after is not only a legal issue but one of morality as well. He also spoke of the benefits of setting up a stable as a . But it is not a limited liability corporation to hobby.

Passion for the sport is a must in thoroughbred ownership,” he continued. “You are going to lose races and you may lose money. If your passion for the sport is not strong enough to deal with these challenges, you’ll have trouble. Once past that however, the experience is incredible.” Christina Bossinakis, who heads the new Owners Conceirge for the Thoroughbred Owners and Breeders Association, said that providing hospitality for owners is one of the keys to retaining and attracting new owners to horse racing. “Hospitality provides a good time that will help you deal with the challenges. And always educate yourself about the sport. The more you know, the more you will enjoy ownership.”

He described his introduction to thoroughbred ownership as well as some of the highs and lows he and his wife, Janet, have experienced, including the death from colic in early December of the Eclipse Award and multiple stakes winner Shared Belief. “Penny Chenery, the owner of Secretariat, wrote to me afterward and told me that the highs will outweigh the lows when you own thoroughbreds … We’re going to stay in the game. It’s been an amazing experience. We love the game mostly because we love the animals.” After Rome’s address, Durkin had a short interview with Zayat who told the audience that he was not sure the whole Triple Crown experience with American Pharoah had yet sunk in. Next, Horse Racing Radio Network’s Mike Penna moderated a panel on “Pursuing Your Dream: Success Stories from Thoroughbred Owners.” Panelists included thoroughbred owners Sheila Rosenblum of Lady Sheila Stable, Ken Ramsey and Don Little Jr. of Centennial Farms. They each described their success stories and echoed many of the panelists from Tuesday who advised owners to have a business plan as a thoroughbred owner, just as with any other business. They also advised each owner to conduct plenty of research and homework on potential advisors and trainers. Rosenblum and Little talked about the benefits of partnerships and syndicates in that they reduce the risks while retaining the enjoyment, although Ramsey said he enjoys being a sole owner. However, all three, like Rome, said the sport will provide excitement and enjoyment like very few experiences. “If you want to invest in fun,” Ramsey said, “you’re in the right place. This game has taken me from Dublin to Dubai and I have met great people from every spectrum, from Sheikhs to Queens.” At the conclusion of the panel, Durkin presented Sol Kumin with the first New Owner of the Year Award before Zayat came up to discuss his year with American Pharoah. The final panel was moderated by Alyssa Ali and was entitled “From Daily Care & Welfare to Aftercare: The SALLY MOEHRING PHOTOS
New York Racing Association. They discussed what they perceived as their best assets as a rider and the physical challenges and risks of their profession. They explained how owners could best work and communicate with riders and shared several entertaining stories from their career. Following lunch in the Ten Palms, each group of panelists hosted breakout sessions where owners were invited to participate in a question-and-answer session.
The conference concluded Jan. 13 with an inspirational key note from radio and television personality Jim Rome, panels on thoroughbred aftercare, success stories and people behind the scenes. There was also an interview with Triple Crown winner American Pharoah’s owner and breeder Ahmed Zayat. The day began with a morning workout program conducted by Hall of Fame jockey Chris McCarron and Suzie Oldham. Following the morning workouts, master of ceremonies Tom Durkin again welcomed back to Gulfstream Park’s Sport of Kings room the crowd of approximately 200 owners. Rome told the audience that, although he has one of the best jobs in the world as a nationally syndicated radio and television sports talk personality, it does not compare to his experiences as a thoroughbred owner. “I’ve been doing radio and TV work for 30 years, and I have a great job,” he said. “But my best days at work are not as good as the most electric, surreal days I’ve enjoyed at the track.”

Life Journey of Your Thoroughbred Racehorse.” Dr. Robert O’Neill first advised attendees to develop a communication network with their veterinarians before discussing the eight track vets he oversees for Gulfstream Park and their daily responsibilities. Dr. Jim Chiapetta also spoke about different respiratory conditions unique to the racehorse. Madeline Aeurbach related how she helped create CARMA, a thoroughbred aftercare program in California, and Erin Crady of Thoroughbred Charities of America introduced attendees to her cause and how it works. Stacy Clark Rogers of the Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance also spoke of her organization and how it helps retired thoroughbreds.

The following discussion came with retired jockey and current New York Racing Association television personality Richard Migliore and Gulfstream Park president Tim Ritvo explaining the various people behind the scenes of a race horse. With video assistance, the two experts took their presentation from the grooms at 5 a.m., through exercise riders during training hours to valets, outriders and jockeys in the afternoon. Closing remarks came from William Lear, Vice Chairman of the Jockey Club, who reminded that Own-

Each of the panelists talked about the potential of thoroughbreds after racing but urged owners to realize that the welfare of the thoroughbred during their career on the track is just as important. While most said horses off the track must be sound to begin a new career, O’Neil related a story about telling an owner that a horse had bad knees and would be good for little else but trail riding, much less racing. The owner took his advice and retired the horse, but the horse went on to compete in

It was the goal of such meetings to help owners be more aware of those challenges, how best to avoid some and how best to deal with others. Lear also announced that the third OwnerView Owners Conference was going to be held the week of the 2016 Breeders’ Cup at Santa Anita Park in late October. ■

NATIONAL NEWS
Congress Passes Tax Bill with Horse Benefits; President Will Sign It Washington, DCn what might be seen as a thaw in Congressional relations, a bi-partisan tax bill, with multiple provisions favorable to the horse industry, has now been passed by Congress. Although the bill has now touched down safely, there were a few gusts and swells that threatened its passage right up to the end. President Obama has signaled he will sign it shortly. The $622 billion bill extends or reinstates multiple tax provisions that have been raised, lowered, or allowed to expire over the last decade. Some have now been made permanent in the new bill; others extended for one or two years; but all are retroactive to Jan. 1, 2015 so horse owners and industry stakeholders can take advantage of them for this year. The bill, called the Protecting Americans from Tax Hikes Act of 2015, includes several provisions important to the horse industry and championed by the American Horse Council for some time. These benefits include making all race horses depreciable over three years; the ability to immediately expense or writeoff up to $500,000 in depreciable business property; and bonus depreciation, which allows the deduction of 50% of the cost of new property purchased and placed in service. All of these provisions apply to horses and other assets used in a horse business. The bill reinstates the 3-year-depreciation schedule for all race horses for all of 2015 and 2016. “This means that if an owner has begun training or racing a horse this year, or will begin training or racing it next year, the three-year depreciation schedule will apply. Owners and trainers don’t have to get involved in deciding when to begin training the horse to qualify for the 3-year period, rather than 7 year; it is automatic for all race horses placed in service in 2015 and 2016. The provision allows horse owners to begin training their race horses when they think best and take advantage of the shorter three-year period,” noted American Horse Council president Jay Hickey. “Most horses race over three years, not seven, so this is really a fairer schedule.”
I
56 THE FLORIDA HORSE • FEBRUARY 2016
The bill also raises the so-called Section 179 business expense deduction back to $500,000 and makes it permanent, effective January 1, 2015. It had reverted to $25,000 for 2015. This change will allow anyone in the horse business to immediately depreciate up to $500,000 of the cost of any investment in industry assets, including horses, fences, equipment, tack, trucks, etc., purchased and placed in service in 2015 and 2016. The deduction is still reduced dollar-for-dollar once investments in all one’s business activities hit $2 million. “The 179 expense deduction is a real stimulus to the $102 billion horse industry and will support thousands of jobs,” said Hickey. “And it applies to all depreciable assets used in the horse business, including horses, be they yearlings, race or show horses, mares, stallions, or breeding shares.” The bill restores bonus depreciation for qualifying new property, including assets used in the horse business, such as yearlings and other equipment, purchased and placed in service during 2015 through 2019. It had expired for 2015, but is now restored to 50 percent for business property placed in service during 2015, 2016 and 2017. It then phases down to 40 percent in 2018, and 30 percent in 2019. The first use of the horse or equipment must begin with the taxpayer. Yearlings are eligible for bonus depreciation and new equipment, but not horses like mares or stallions that have raced, shown, or been bred, since they have already been used. The extender bill would also restore and make permanent favorable tax treatment for land donated for conservation purposes, particularly land donated by farmers and ranchers. The AHC has been working to have all these provisions increased or reinstated and is pleased they have been acted upon. They have been made retroactive to cover all of 2015. “We had hoped these provisions would have been extended earlier in the year. This would have made planning and decisions to invest in the horse business easier. Congress apparently follows the ‘better late than never schedule’,” said Hickey. ■

Decoupling_Lonny.qxp_Florida Horse_template 1/29/16 12:22 PM Page 2
Decoupling Major Topic of Discussion in Tally By MIKE MULLANEY onny Powell, Chief Executive Officer and President of the Florida Thoroughbred Breeders’ and Owners’ Association, in testimony before the state senate’s Regulated Industries Committee, clarified a point on the minds of his membership when he asked lawmakers in Tallahassee why decoupling is part of the discussion concerning the 20-year Seminole Gaming Compact. Decoupling, which became a component in the compact, would allow the state’s “racinos” to abandon their pari-mutuel businesses – ie. horse racing, dog racing and jai alai – in favor of slots only. The breeding and racing interests see passage of decoupling as a prelude to the industry’s eventual extinction in the state. When lawmakers met the week before, decoupling was glossed over, but the topic emerged front and center at the Jan. 27 hearing and a progression of racetrack owners and representatives as well as racehorse owners, breeders and trainers appeared before the committee, which is chaired by Sen. Rob Bradley. “We’re all about the agricultural segments,” Powell reminded the committee. “There’s myriad reasons [why] decoupling is a major threat to our industry, but our message remains simple: Please say ‘No!’ to decoupling.” Powell, in effect, asked the committee to decouple “decoupling” from debate over the Seminole compact, citing the devastating economic impact that decoupling would bring as well as the tribe’s stated disinterest in the topic. “It’s a gambling expansion and it works against jobs

and economic growth,” he said. “In speaking about thoroughbreds only, we’re a billion dollar a year industry with 12,000 jobs in terms of economic impact. If you put in the ancillary activities just in Marion County, that amount doubles. “Why is it even part of the discussion? Since the Seminole CEO [James Allen testified Jan 21 that] they have ‘zero position’ on decoupling, and the fact that [owners and breeders] were never included in the conversation,
58 THE FLORIDA HORSE • FEBRUARY 2016
why do we need to advance the concept? Please simply drop decoupling,” he said. Also appearing before the committee were Stella Thayer, owner of Tampa Bay Downs; Bill White, president of the Florida Horsemen’s Benevolent and Protective Association; Marc Dunbar, longtime Tallahassee lobbyist and representative of Gulfstream Park, and Laurine FullerVargas, a spirited fourth-generation horsewoman and Ocala resident who told Bradley that she has collected the signatures of 3,000 for a no-decoupling petition. “I think I’ve received e-mails from all 3,000 of them,” Bradley said, in recognition of her efforts as well as those of the FTBOA and the owners and trainers. Dunbar provided unexpected testimony, indicating that The Stronach Group, owner of the racetrack, will eagerly fill any vacuum created in terms of racing dates if any of the state’s existing racinos abandon racing. Dunbar told the committee that, while last year The Stronach Group “certainly stood with the breeders and opposed decoupling,” Gulfstream Park was now ready and willing to fill the void that would be created if decoupling went forward as proposed and several existing racinos chose to leave the horse racing business. “I just want to let everyone know that we feel like we have a pretty good framework for a [compact] agreement, whereby the racetracks that want to decouple can decouple, and The Stronach Group will step in and maintain the level of racing that’s currently required under the statute. “The thoroughbred industry has been working really hard over the last year with a number of the folks in the slot-machine coalition and the card rooms around the state to try and see if we could come up with a structure where, at least on the horse racing side, Gulfstream Park would maintain the racing, allow Calder and Hialeah and others to uncouple, and make sure that the horse breeders and the horse owners of the state are taken care of.” Thayer’s testimony didn’t cover decoupling, but she made it clear that Tampa Bay Downs, located close to the Seminole’s Hard Rock casino – “ground zero,” as she noted – seeks something closer to parity with its nearby gaming rival. The passion that the anti-decoupling contingent brought to the hearing was met with an equally impassioned response from the casino interests. Donn Mitchell, the head of the Isle of Capri Casinos, which operates the harness-racing track best known among the standardbred set as Pompano Park, put his cards on the table, telling the committee, “In order to compete, we must be allowed to eliminate the losses that we’re currently forced to incur from live racing. Yes, I’m talking about decoupling.” ■

Though certainly not a surprise, it is still always amazing to see our in-state thoroughbred industry numbers in terms of how they fit with and relate to Florida’s economy. A recent 2013 conservative study conducted by nationally acclaimed pari-mutuel and gaming economists Cummings & Associates of horse breeds from the pari-mutuel industry based in the Sunshine State provided a handful of very impressive equine economic impacts including:
■ $1 billion per year of Economic Impact ■ More than $400 million expended per year in local salaries and payroll taxes ■ More than 12,000 jobs ■ An annual economic impact state-wide far in excess of coveted baseball spring training

FTBOA MEMBER UPDATE SAY NO TO DECOUPLING
FTBOA is still encouraging members and those who could be impacted by potential decoupling legislation to take the time to explain the negative effect it would have on the industry and its participants to those in other industries. As part of the efforts, about 90 business leaders from Marion County attended Marion County Days learning about the industry and sharing with legislators how its loss would affect their own industries. Also, several members visited offices including Lynne Boutte and Laurine Barriera. The realtors of Marion County also went to Tallahassee to share the industry’s message. This is in addition to constant efforts and presentations by FTBOA CEO Lonny Powell, lobbyist Matt Bryan and the United Horsemen’s group spear-headed by FHBPA. FTBOA is a resource for economic information, can assist you in planning a visit, has sample letters, can provide contacts and encouragement for your efforts. Decoupling at Glance is at ftboa.com under Membership Benefits, then select Education Station or you can e-mail Tammy Gantt at tgantt@ftboa.com for a direct link. MENTOR PROGRAM
The mentor program for 2016 kicks off with Lambholm South sponsoring a day at Tampa in February. In addition to this special day, mentors and their new members will be able to network and share knowledge of their areas of expertise throughout the year.

Jockeys and Jeans Kicks Off Third Year By REV. EDDIE DONNALLY ockeys and Jeans, an event to aid the Permanently Disabled Jockeys Fund, returns to Florida for its third annual fundraiser. Though most of you reading this are involved in thoroughbred racing in Florida, the name Roger Blanco is not likely to jump off the page and into your memory. The name does matter to Jockeys and Jeans and hopefully it will to you. At 23, in 1988, the Cuban-born jockey who migrated to the U.S, fell in a race at Monmouth Park. He has since lived in the Miami area and has been confined to a wheel chair. Confined and disabled are not terms this writer feels belong to the some 60 riders the PDJF currently assists. All, including Blanco, were involved in ontrack catastrophic accidents which resulted in paralysis, quadriplegia, brain trauma and spinal injuries. Some 40 are pari or quadriplegic. Jockey and Jeans was founded by a group of former jockeys who not only wanted to publicize the dangers inherent in

race riding, but to honor the courage of those injured as they rebuild and maintain their suddenly changed lives. It takes grit to sit your 112 lb. body atop a half ton, honed to the bone, racehorse, knowing in the back of your mind that if that horse wants to run over a rail at 40 miles an hour, that is exactly what will happen. But to have that thrill of race riding and the accompanying identity of being a small person succeeding in a world of huge athletes demands courage. Having that snatched away from you forever in a single brutal moment—and then set about rebuilding your life while sitting in a wheelchair that hardly reaches a thoroughbred’s belly— requires an even more acute brand of courage. We started in 2014, when we got together to host a jockeys’ reunion at Tampa Bay Downs. We decided with only six weeks left to use it to raise funds for our fallen brothers and sisters and raised $23,000 for PDJF. Thanks to track officials who genuinely cared, last year at Indiana Grand Racing & Casino we raised over $204,000. Clearly, many members of the family that is racing decided it’s time to make a difference in a lot of human lives. This year, we were invited to host our third event at Gulfstream Park and it’s set for Sunday, Feb. 28, beginning at noon. Besides Roger Blanco, we will honor injured jockeys Michael Straight, Ann Von Rosen, Jack Fires, Ted Leggett, Gary Donahue, Rene Douglas and Hall of Famer Randy Romero. At least a dozen other Hall of Fame riders will attend to greet the attendees and encourage their injured comrades. They include Bill Boland, Walter Blum, Angel Cordero Jr., Pat Day, Sandy Hawley, Laffit Pincay Jr., Edgar Prado, Jose Santos, John Rotz, Jacinto Vasquez, Jorge Velasquez and Manuel Ycaza. The event will feature a rerun of the famous 1962 Preakness Stakes and the first co-appearance at a charity

event by Rotz and Ycaza. Rotz eked out a victory aboard Greek Money, defeating Ridan and Ycaza who leaned into Rotz near the finish line and then unsuccessfully claimed foul. The first Breeders’ Cup Classic will also be relived with the first three finishing jockeys, Pat Day, Laffit Pincay Jr. and Angel Cordero Jr. attending. In what may be a once in a lifetime opportunity, both groups will sign special race photos to benefit PDJF. Ycaza has donated for sale at the event the helmet and boots he wore while atop a host of racing greats, including famed Florida-bred, Dr. Fager. We thank, among others, the Florida Thoroughbred Breeders’ & Owners’ Association and Ocala Breeders Sales for being gold sponsorship. Thanks to Fasig-Tipton we will for the first time sell donated (no guarantee) stallion seasons. They will be placed in a heavily advertised week-long online auction the week before the event with the most popular seasons held over for sale at auction at the event.
Already, Adena Springs South, Double Diamond Farm, Ocala Stud and Hartley/DeRenzo Thoroughbreds have committed top seasons. Jockeys and Jeans is set for the day before the Fasig Tipton Florida Sale “Under Tack Show” of two-year-olds in training. Much attention is given jockeys during the days shortly after their severe injuries. But for the last 28 years, Roger Blanco has gotten up and maneuvered his body into a wheelchair. Don’t you think it’s time to show up, let him know he’s not forgotten and in essence say, “Hey, I care. I’m rooting for you, and I want to help?” Jockeys and Jeans gives you that opportunity. For more information or to donate a stallion season can call Rev. Eddie Donnally at (818) 653-3711 or President Barry Pearl at 717-503-0182. Event tickets are on sale for $50 each on the Gulfstream Park website at www.gulfstreampark.com under the racing tab or by calling 954-4576201 Thursday through Saturday.

Adding a victory in the Breeders’ Cup to any Triple Crown winner’s to-do list is truly a momentous challenge, and the achievement of the only horse to accomplish that feat figures to grow mightily in stature through the years.
Ranking Pharoah O
ne of the great Daily Racing Form columnists of the past was Barney Nagler, whose “On Second Thought” column often dealt with man’s unrequited, haunting desire to know ultimate truth in the sporting world. And, although Barney knew that any attempt to compare boxers, baseball players or racehorses of different eras was a futile exercise, he occasionally indulged himself. Often the reader would be tipped to that exercise with a lead-in that began, “Like the memory of love or an old rap, ….” Barney would then set the Tale of the Tape, introducing the characters to be compared, followed by a fairly balanced presentation of the evidence. And so, with respect to Barney, and with year-end awards stowed away, one might ask where American Pharoah rates with superstars of the past, specifically the other 11 Triple Crown winners? Each of those who swept the classics validated their greatness in other races, before or after, but a little research reveals that the manner in which the Citra-trained American Pharoah met nearly every challenge sets him apart as something special. That research would also lead to a renewed appreciation of his immediate predecessor, the Ocala-born Affirmed. No racehorse, certainly no previous Triple Crown winner, had ever been tested with the itinerary demanded of Pharoah, who seemed to be on hand for every parade except the one that goes past Columbus Circle on Thanksgiving Day. From his California bases of Santa Anita and Del Mar, he: shipped halfway across the country to win the Rebel, went back to California, then shipped back to Oaklawn to take the Arkansas Derby; then shipped back to California, then shipped to Kentucky, Maryland and New York to sweep the classics, maintaining his good humor while greeting a throng of reporters the day after his Belmont Stakes triumph;

then shipped back to Kentucky, paraded at Churchill Downs, then returned to California; then shipped out to win the Haskell in New Jersey; then returned again to California and paraded at Santa Anita, then shipped back to New York, made a very public appearance at Saratoga before 15,000 the morning before the Travers, then was upset by Keen Ice the next day; then returned to California, paraded at Del Mar, then shipped out again to Kentucky, en route to his final victory, the Breeders’ Cup Classic at Keeneland. Is there any wonder why American Pharoah’s honors included a Vox Populi Award as the nation’s favorite racehorse. Seattle Slew’s co-owner, from Washington State, had his way when he took the colt to Longacres, making appearances there beginning five days after he was beaten 16 lengths in the Swaps at Hollywood Park, and less than a month after wrapping up the crown with his Belmont Stakes victory. American Pharoah’s Egyptian-born owner resisted any similar temptation to send his prize colt back to his hometown, but, keeping the campaign domestic, he fulfilled more public appearances than a candidate running for national office. American Pharoah was the first and only Triple Crown winner to be presented with the opportunity to add the Breeders’ Cup Classic to his resume’, simply because the World Championships were not inaugurated until 1984, five years after Affirmed ran his last race. How long will it take before the next Grand Slam winner appears? Since it took 37 years to find a worthy successor to Affirmed, adding a victory in the Breeders’ Cup to any Triple Crown winner’s to-do list is truly a momentous challenge, and the achievement of the only horse to accomplish that feat figures to grow mightily in stature through the years. ■

Waste and compost-eating bugs, fungi and bacteria are vital to nature’s recycling

Waste Management That Won’t Bug You
E
ach New Year holds great promise and new ideas can be the start of something fantastic. When old ideas are looked at in new ways, or from other angles, potential solutions sometimes present themselves. Waste and manure management solutions have been studied and applied for many years, resulting in different ideas and socalled solutions. Waste and compost-eating bugs, fungi and bacteria have not often been considered in the past, but are nonetheless vital to nature’s recycling. Researchers are now starting to realize and reconsider the amazing benefits that waste-eating bugs can provide manure management, composting, etc. These bugs have literally been “eating up” the problem forever! Several different types of “creepy crawlies,” while all seemingly disgusting, are also very efficient and essential for this natural cycle. Bugs that feed on dead stuff, scientifically called saprophagous, are truly nature’s great cleaners. Black Soldier Flies and Dung Beetles are just two varieties. Other bugs, including sow bugs, centipedes and millipedes, don’t specifically eat waste, but play an important role in compost improvement and development. These bugs can be found all over the world feeding on raw manures, compost, decaying vegetation and mulch. Black Soldier flies are native to the southeastern states and throughout the Western Hemisphere. Often associated with outdoors and livestock, they can normally be found around decaying organic matter (such as animal waste or plant material). Because the Black Soldier larvae consume decaying matter, they have been used with some success to reduce animal manure in commercial swine and poultry facilities. The fly prepupae will actually crawl themselves out of the manure once they are ready to mate, making a system fairly straightforward for swine and poultry operations. Dung Beetles are another variety of nature’s great recycling insects that, not surprisingly, feed on manure. There are three varieties of the Dung Beetle; tunnellers, rollers and dwellers; the last variety actually lives directly in the manure and feces. Amazingly industrious and workmanlike creatures, their brightly colored bodies have digging limbs, fighting shields and elongated backs to hold manure balls. In ancient 106 THE FLORIDA HORSE • FEBRUARY 2016
Egypt, the Rainbow Scarab beetles (aka Dung beetle) were actually worshipped, with the more amazing varieties even being fashioned into jewelry. They can be found on every continent except Antarctica and have played an important role in worldwide pasture ecosystems. Pillbugs, often called Roly-Poly bugs, are well known and something children often play with them outside. These are the common little gray bugs that roll up in a tight ball when disturbed. These interesting creatures are most commonly found in the compost piles, leaf litter and mulch. While not an actual manure-eating insect, they are considered to be a variety of the decomposer fauna, meaning that this insect will return organic matter (i.e. decomposing manure) to the soils. Amazingly, Pillbugs and also Sowbugs are excellent in heavy metal removal [including zinc, lead and copper] from soils, which results in ultimate removal from ground water. This makes millipedes and Sowbug “shredder” arthropods very essential to preserve soil/water health. Spiders and other arthropods dramatically also assist the waste-eating and organic matter decomposition processes. Ranging in size from the microscopic to long-legged spiders, a single square yard of soil can contain from 500 to 200,000 individual arthropods. Although some plant-feeding arthropods can become pests, they are primarily needed to tackle organic wastes and enhance soils. At the beginning of this New Year, try to appreciate the importance of the “creepy” insects and critters that, although seemingly disgusting, are vital to the health of soil and essential to the waste management process. Please don’t hesitate to contact me or your local extension agent to learn more about waste-eating bugs, improved manure management and farm practices, or to schedule a free, non-regulatory farm visit. As always, keep up the good management practices! ■
