Fort Larned gets trip in Cornhusker

ockey Brian Hernandez allowed Fort Larned to grab the lead within the first few strides in the Grade 3, $300,000 Cornhusker Handicap at one-andone-eighth miles and immediately slowed the pace. That proved a winning strategy. Janis Whitham’s homebred Fort Larned, trained by Ian Wilkes, set a slow pace with an easy lead ahead of his five
rivals and the four-year-old son of E Dubai remained fresh in the lane to win by three lengths as the 7-2 second choice. He was timed in 1:47.42. Morton Finks’ Successful Dan, the 1-2 favorite, was second after trying to run down the gate-to-wire winner in the stretch under Julian Leparoux. Awesome Gem was two-and-three-
quarter lengths back in third. The Cornhusker result was a reverse of the Grade 2 Alysheba Stakes at Churchill Downs on May 4. In that one-and-onesixteenth-mile test Fort Larned set the pace, however Successful Dan was able to mount a winning bid from a striking position for the one-length score. After the Alysheba, Fort Larned had

a troubled trip in the Grade 1 $400,000 Stephen Foster Handicap and was a well-beaten eighth-place finisher. Also on the impressive program was the Grade 3, $250,000 Iowa Derby and the Grade 3, $200,000 Iowa Oaks. Kendall Hansen and Skychai Racing’s Hansen was the 1-9 favorite in the Iowa Derby and was a bargain at those short odds while he turned the race into a one-andone-sixteenth-mile workout. Jockey Ramon Dominguez put the front-running Hanson, a striking gray son of Tapit, on the lead and he cruised around the track on the lead while never being asked to run and then drew away to the 10-length win under a hold. He was timed in 1:42.01. Hero Of Order was second

and Macho Bull was third. The win pushed the Michael Maker-trained Hanson’s career earnings to $1,773,305 and he scored his fifth win from eight starts. He was making his first start since his troubled ninth-place finish in the Kentucky Derby. He established his Kentucky Derby credentials with a win as the odds-on choice in the Gotham Stakes and a second behind Dullahan in the Blue Grass Stakes as the 6-5 favorite. In the one-and-onesixteenth-mile Iowa Oaks the early speed didn’t hold up and Uptown Birdie, under a well-timed ride by Laparoux, went three-wide on the turn to take the lead and then held Ice Cream Silence safe to win by two-and-one-quarter lengths. Emona was another three
quarters of a length back for third in the field of six fillies. A daughter of More Than Ready, Uptown Birdie was timed in 1:43.34 for her first stakes win. She won her maiden in her seventh career start

Texas track ups the ante G By Martha Claussen
ood things are happening at Lone Star Park at Grand Prairie in 2012. The live Thoroughbred meet and concerts are attracting significant crowds, and it opened a tremendous new simulcast center and sports bar earlier this year. If Mother Nature could just turn down the thermostat 20 degrees, things would be downright perfect.
Bar & Book big hit with fans
Lone Star Park opened its Post Time Pavilion simulcast center in May 1996, 11 months before the track held its first live race meet. In 2011, a major renovation ensued, and on Jan. 12 of this year, Lone Star Park played host to a grand opening for the newly renamed Bar & Book. The 36,000-square-foot facility serves as a simulcast center for horseplayers as well as a sports bar and casual dining restaurant to attract sporting fans of every genre. The state-of-the art complex can accommodate up to 237 customers with individual betting carrels and televisions. Enhancements include a non-smoking area, a tiered level, including 30 lounge chairs and 12 lounge dining tables, two VIP and multi-user interactive touchscreen televisions integrated into a table in the Sports Bar. Open 363 days a year, this highly popular venue has become a major attraction in the Dallas metroplex. Racing and sports enthusiasts can enjoy simulcast action and all major sporting events, including football, baseball, basketball, hockey and pay-per-view title fights. The Bar & Book was a worthy multimillion-dollar investment, said Drew Shubeck, president and general manager of Lone Star Park.
“Feedback from our patrons was very important to both the concept and design of the Bar & Book,” said Shubeck. “We felt our clientele deserved a venue that equaled the finest Las Vegas-style sports book. Well-lit private carrels, additional mutuel terminals, and our expanded food and drink menu have all been extremely well received. Since its opening in January, we have seen increases in both attendance and handle. We couldn’t be more pleased.”

operated by Global Gaming Solutions Llc, is winding down its 53-day live Thoroughbred meeting, which began on April 12 and will conclude on Sunday, July 8. Top Texas horsemen Steve Asmussen, Bret Calhoun and Danny Pish are perennial leaders, but the track has welcomed a slew of highly regarded trainers, including Bill Mott, Bobby Frankel, Todd Pletcher, Mike Mitchell, Donnie Von Hemel, Ralph Ziadie, Darrell Vienna and Craig Dollase.

In 1997, Bob Baffert won inaugural $250,000 Texas Mile with Isitingood and also won the $250,000 Lone Star Derby with Anet. Baffert has shipped in many of his top horses for the marquee stakes events. Game On Dude captured the 14th running of the Lone Star Derby. On May 28, racing fans were able to see one of the country’s top older horses, Nates Mineshaft ably win the Grade 3, $300,000 Lone Star Park Handicap. With his victory, the son of Mineshaft eclipsed the half-million mark in career earnings. Ken Carson is the manager of Valor Farm in Pilot Point, Texas, just 60 miles from Lone Star Park. Founded by Dorothy and Clarence Scharbaurer Jr., Valor Farm homebreds have been exceptional performers at the Grand Prairie racetrack. The Scharbauers were inducted into the Lone Star Park Hall of Fame in 2008. Most recently, Scharbauer’s homebred Worldventurer, trained by Bret Calhoun captured the $94,420 TTA Sales Futurity on June 16.
Circustown Rose.
That same day, another Valor Farms standout, Circustown Rose won the inaugural $50,000 Lane’s End Stallion Scholarship Stakes for fillies and mares on the turf. Carson has a great deal of respect for the management of Lone Star Park. “They have been fantastic,” said Carson. “Racing in Texas has its share of challenges, but Lone Star has done a good job to entice fans to the sport.”
Admirable host of national events
Since opening in April 1997, Lone Star Park has been host to several prominent national racing events. The 2004 Breeders’ Cup was held at Lone Star Park with more than 53,000 fans in attendance. Close to two years in the planning, with an $8 million facility and barn area, Lone Star Park shone brightly in the national spotlight. The weekend festivities included the International Jockey Championship with Hall of Fame rider Jerry Bailey and European star Frankie Dettori headlining the field. In 1998 and 2006, the MBNA America Challenge Championship, Quarter Horse’s version of the Breeders’ Cup was held at Lone Star Park.
Promotions and concerts attracting solid crowds
Lone Star Park has always placed a high premium on entertainment in addition to their live racing and simulcast offerings. Ongoing promotions include Party at the Park, featuring live music and drink specials; a Saturday morning fan education program called Jockeys and Java, and the always popular July 4th Lone Stars & Stripes fireworks celebration. On June 9, the Eli Young Band, one of the featured
acts in the Lone Star Music Series attracted a record attendance figure of 26,519 fans. That was the largest crowd ever for a regular post-race concert at the Grand Prairie track. Three more concerts are set for July including Pat Green on July 3, Josh Abbott Band on July 6, and Billy Currington as the final performer on July 7.
Quarter Horse meet features richest race in Texas The 2012 Meeting of Champions, featuring 26 days of Quarter Horse racing, is set for Sept. 14 through Nov. 10. Major stakes include the $100,000 Refrigerator Handicap which offers the winner a berth into the Grade 1, $750,000 Champion of Champions, at Los Alamitos Race Course, the Dash for Cash Derby and Futurity and the $1 million Texas Classic Futurity. The Texas Classic is the richest race in Texas, and attracts the top horses in the country. In 2010, Bodacious Dash, bred by Texans Bob and Jerry Ann Gaston and owned by Johnny Trotter, won the Texas Classic Futurity. It was the biggest win for trainer Trey Wood, who was just 22 years old at the time. “Winning the Texas Classic was the most exciting moment in my life,” said Wood, who has won the last three Quarter Horse training titles at Lone Star Park. “Unlike so many futurities, you can’t supplement a horse to the Texas Classic. You have to make early payments and hope your horse will step up at the right time. Bodacious Dash performed the way we hoped. To this day, I am still thrilled when I think about the race and what it meant to my career. There really are no words to explain it.” This September, Wood will have his barn ready to roll, and whether or not he wins the Dash for Cash or Texas Classic, he looks forward to returning to Grand Prairie, Texas. “Lone Star Park is one of my favorite tracks,” adds Wood. “They put on a good show for the fans and take really good care of their horsemen.” Martha Claussen has been prominent in the Texas racing industry since 1997 as a publicist, writer and handicapper.

Instead of location, location, “You would love your location, it is race record, race record, race record. That is the most critical thing that makes horses succeed. Pedigree is a nice thing. Here in the northwest we cannot buy race record, race record, race record, so we have to get a balance of things.” “When I saw Nationhood, I saw he had a wonderful pedigree and was a nice individual himself and had shown tremendous speed. I was interested because now I cannot go out and buy the $250,000 to $350,000 stallion that we used to buy for Washington. We bought those in groups and would put together anywhere from six to 10 people. I could walk out right now and ask if anyone wants to buy a stallion with me and there wouldn’t be one person who would say yes. That’s the way it is.” Nationhood has produced 15 foals in his first crop and 13 in his second and is being bred to about 19 mares this year. With his oldest foals currently
yearlings, next year we will see them on the track. By Cherokee Run, Nationhood hit the board in three of his five 4-year-old starts but really took off as a 5-year-old with five wins and three seconds from 10 outs, including wins at Turf Paradise, Hollywood Park and Emerald Downs, capturing two stakes victories in Washington the following season. “With the downturn in the economy, we have been looking at different ways to generate more income, and this seemed the perfect fit. I could’ve put him somewhere else. I didn’t have to have him for ourselves, but I’d watched other people and one avenue of moneymaking that we’d seen others use successfully that we’d never tried was standing a stallion. We had room maybe for a couple.” Debbie has an uncanny sense of what works for this region. Her annual pilgrimage to Lexington, Ky., in the fall allows her to see for herself just how the market is playing. It is always a matter of weighing up price range with what is out there and what might be a good fit for her mares. It is a huge bonus to find you are ahead of the curve as Debbie has, having taken mares to Candy Ride and Birdstone before they really took off as desirable stallions. “I do a study every October of all the horses who are of a first-crop stallion, those with their first 2-year-olds, and I go through that, looking for horses that are doing well. Sometimes that can be an illusion, but usually they at least turn out to be useful. That is how I spotted Birdstone and Candy Ride, and that’s how I could afford to breed to them because they were horses that hadn’t gone to stud at expensive prices and then they rose after that. Candy Ride is the obvious example.” Their bay colt by Candy
Ride from Sudden Departure was foaled on Feb. 2, 2010. He is the second foal from Sudden Departure, who Rick and Debbie raced. She was quite the runner, having recorded the fastest 5-1/2 furlongs by a filly or mare at Emerald Downs in 1:02 flat. The Birdstone colt, a dark bay/brown from their prolific broodmare, Artic Mist, was foaled just under one month later. “Initially, Candy Ride stood for $10,000. They didn’t love his pedigree because he was by Ride the Rails out of a Candy Stripes mare. I’d heard a lot of criticism of the size of his feet, how he was very fine and not the biggest horse in the world -- 15.3 hands -- and so on. But you can’t take away that he was an unbeaten horse, that he won the Pacific Classic and had won the equivalent to the Guineas in Argentina. It was in the deepest part of the recession, and he might have started

off at $18,000 to $20,000 in better times. Then they raised the price to $12,500, got Jenny Craig to buy some pretty nice mares and he had a big crop, a lot of foals. Now he’s up to $50,000. “Don’t get me wrong, people love unproven stallions but they only like certain ones. Anybody can go and say this horse is going to be a market horse. Look at the Thoroughbred Times. Every year they have their experts make predictions. They all get to choose six stallions each and they’re lucky if they come up with two as an entire bunch that do any good because they nearly always err on the side of stallions that get good-looking foals. I wish that had something to do with it but it doesn’t. “Me, I’m looking for 2-yearold winners, I’m looking for stakes horses, for quality and class. There aren’t too many things you can hang your hat on. Graded performance is at a premium. The year I opted for Candy Ride and Birdstone, both had been relatively unpopular. Birdstone had taken the hit the most because Marylou Whitney doesn’t have a great big broodmare band. “He’s a little, muscular horse, Birdstone, about 15.2 hands. They didn’t like that he was by Grindstone however he had a great female family. Sure, he won the Belmont and the Travers Stakes but people forget that he had won the Champagne as a 2-year-old. He’s just not the kind of horse that gets you the big robust, beautiful looking sales yearling. “Horses should look like they’re supposed to, and by that I mean, if you have a horse by Northern Dancer you don’t want him to be 16.3 hands in most cases. There are a really good number of small horses, but we’ve come out of a time when Northern Dancer dominated the whole breeding world. They say he was 15.2
popular, so he went 60, 40, 20, and is going through that trough right now. I would have loved to have bred to him this year, but I didn’t have the right mare”. Breeding competitive Thoroughbreds is a constant exercise in honing your judgment, and Debbie is highly discerning in the choices that Blue Ribbon Farm makes, always looking out for the overall welfare of the state at large. “In this industry, it is as though all the stars have to be in alignment,” she quips.

an attempt to cheat. This is bad stuff. This is doping.’’ That is how Charles Gardiner, the executive director of the Louisiana State Racing Commission, reacted in the New Orleans Times-Picayune when news broke recently that 10 horses that had raced at Louisiana tracks has tested positive for the powerful, painkilling drug dermorphin. Only a few trainers in Louisiana have been named at this time, but we understand that there are dozens of dermorphin positives from multiple states on the horizon. The trainers in Louisiana whose horses have tested positive for dermorphin were issued sixmonth suspensions. Three months ago, The Jockey Club published an updated version of its Reformed Racing Medication Rules. Those new rules feature a cumulative penalty system featuring stronger penalties for repeat violations. Fines, disqualifications and even lifetime suspensions would be possible for those persistently operating outside regulatory limits. (They are available at: jockeyclub.com/ pdfs/reformed_rules.pdf.) If those rules were in effect in Louisiana, or any of the other states in which the same drug has been found recently, any trainer found to have treated a horse with dermorphin would have received, at a minimum, 150 points on his record, a 10-year suspension and a $37,000 fine. It is abundantly clear that the current enforcement system is not working properly. The regulatory penalty structure has failed. We see evidence of this with these blatant attempts by a few unscrupulous parties to beat our drug-testing system. We see more evidence of this in the high proportion of drug
violations that only result in fines — fines that are trivial in amount when compared to the purses at stake. Penalties for repeat offenders have been particularly and excruciatingly deficient. In fact, there is no better example of the failure of our penalty system than dermorphin. According to published reports, one of the recent “positives” for dermorphin in Louisiana is associated with a horse whose trainer is alleged to have two prior Class 1 violations on his record. Drugs in this class, according to Racing Commissioners International guidelines, have no generally accepted medical use in the racing horse and their pharmacologic potential for altering the performance of a racing horse is very high. Sadly, inconsequential penalties have become just another cost of doing business. Fines for medication violations are often no more than a small percentage of monthly drug and veterinary expenses in a stable. The harm these incidents do to our sport is immeasurable and irreparable. The dermorphin (“frog juice”) stories ended up on the front page of The New York Times and on the TIME magazine website, among many other mainstream outlets. We are not the only sport that plays constant catch-up on new performance-enhancing drugs. Look no further than the use of anabolic steroids in baseball or EPO in cycling. But the general public does not, and should not be expected to, differentiate between therapeutic and performance-enhancing drugs in racing. That is why all raceday medications should be prohibited.
The Jockey Club has committed substantial resources to reinvigorate the sport of Thoroughbred racing with a host of fan and owner development initiatives, ranging from television programming and social games and to the creation and launch of a new brand (America’s Best Racing). But we cannot address sustainability issues for our sport until image, integrity, and animal welfare issues, triggered most of all by lax and inconsistent drug policies, are managed and contained. Otherwise, we will suffer death by a thousand cuts. Our hats go off to Petra Hartmann of Industrial Laboratories Co. Inc. in the Denver area for conducting research that led to the development of a post-race test that found and identified dermorphin. Clearly, we need to improve the standards of all of our drug-testing labs, accredit them and then ensure that they share their common procedures and findings in a unified effort to improve the integrity of the sport. Back in January, the Racing Medication and Testing Consortium (RMTC) board of directors voted to shift the group’s main research focus from therapeutic medications to drugs that pose an immediate threat to the integrity of racing. That was a good decision. Regulators know we have to reform our rules, and so do most horsemen. “Problems like we’re having now with dermorphin, quite simply, can be traced to three issues,” said Dr. Rick Arthur, the equine medical director for the California Horse Racing Board. “Our laboratories are underfunded, our research is underfunded, and our penalties are inadequate.”
A longtime owner, breeder and trainer named Christine Janks recently took our industry to task for its lackadaisical approach to drugs and penalties in a commentary that appeared in the Paulick Report. She said, “I wonder about all the people defrauded out of winnings while this has been going on, and I wonder if racing will ever get serious about getting rid of the criminals…. Maybe we ought to try a novel approach: Give the honest guy a chance.” If someone within our industry feels that way, we can only imagine how fans or prospective fans feel as they digest reports about frog juice and other illegal elements. It was heartening to see the Thoroughbred Racing Associations board of directors call for the implementation of uniform regulations regarding more restrictive use of a limited number of therapeutic drugs, a strong penalty structure for violators, and the elimination of treatment practices that could imperil the welfare of the horse when racing. It is encouraging to see industry organizations such as Breeders’ Cup Limited and the Thoroughbred Owners and Breeders Association taking steps to reform drug policies, and it is comforting to see racing commissions moving in the same direction. The decision by the Kentucky Horse Racing Commission on June 13 to begin a phase out of furosemide in graded or listed stakes races was one example. New rules in New Mexico take effect July 31 and include lowering the legal level of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs that horses can receive before racing, which was rec-
ommended by the RMTC and The Jockey Club’s Thoroughbred Safety Committee. Charles Gardiner is exactly right when he talks about dermorphin. This is bad stuff. This is doping. We need to make reforms and we need to do so now. The racing commissions of this country should redesign their rules. And the adoption of Reformed Racing Medication Rules is a good place to start. James L. Gagliano is the president and chief operating officer of The Jockey Club.

Grounds’ three-race graded stakes series for 3-year-olds received significant boosts. The Risen Star Stakes (Grade 2) will be worth $400,000 (a $100,000 increase) and the Lecomte Stakes (Grade 3) will be run for $200,000 (a $25,000 bump). Two important graded events for older horses – the Mineshaft Handicap (Grade 3) on the main track and the Fair Grounds Handicap (Grade 3) on turf – were raised to $150,000 apiece (from $125,000 each last season). The Colonel E.R. Bradley Handicap (Grade 3), which precedes the Fair Grounds Handicap in a three-race graded stakes series for older turf horses, is now worth $125,000 (up from $100,000). The Thanksgiving Handicap for top sprinters will carry a six-figure purse for the first time. The 87th running of Fair Grounds’ traditional opening day feature will be worth $100,000 (up from $75,000). Also given $25,000 bumps were the top two main-track events for fillies and mares – the New Orleans Ladies, now at $150,000, and the Tiffany Lass Stakes, now worth $100,000. “Our emphasis that past three years has been on improving the overall quality of racing at Fair Grounds and these increases are another part of that strategy,” said Fair Grounds President Tim Bryant. “Owners and trainers should know that if they bring their very best horses to New Orleans they will have every chance to be rewarded.” Bryant cited Larry Jones as the prime example of a horseman who reaped the benefits of relocating to Fair Grounds. After several seasons elsewhere, Jones filled 44 stalls in New Orleans last
meet and led all trainers with nearly $1.5 million in earnings and six stakes wins (plus two lucrative runner-up finishes in the Risen Star and Louisiana Derby).
New stakes added
Two new stakes that have yet to be named were added to bolster options in divisions that have become increasingly competitive in recent seasons. Both are 5 ½-furlong turf sprints for 3-year-olds, to be run in gender-restricted divisions. Six races from last season’s stakes schedule are not returning – five from Claiming Crown XIII, which was hosted at Fair Grounds for the first time in December, and the Kudzu Juvenile for Alabamabreds, which has been discontinued by the Alabama Thoroughbred Breeders Racing Association.
Ten graded stakes
The Fair Grounds stakes schedule is highlighted by 10 stakes that were graded last season – five Grade 2 and five Grade 3. The Grade 2 events are the Risen Star Stakes and Louisiana Derby for 3-yearolds, the Fair Grounds Oaks for 3-year-old fillies, the New Orleans Handicap for older horses and the Mervin H. Muniz Memorial Handicap for older turf horses. The Grade 3 events are the Lecomte Stakes for 3-yearolds, the Rachel Alexandra Stakes for 3-year-old fillies, the Mineshaft Handicap for older horses, and both the Fair Grounds Handicap and the Colonel E.R. Bradley Handicap for older turf horses. The North American Graded Stakes committee will meet in December to determine gradings for 2013. “We are hopeful the es-
teemed committee will agree that Fair Grounds deserves a Grade I race,” said Eric Halstrom, Vice President and General Manger for Racing. “This year Believe You Can became the fifth Fair Grounds Oaks winner in the race’s last eight runnings to also win the Kentucky Oaks. We’re proud to be the winter home for some of the nation’s finest horses and believe it’s just a matter of time until Fair Grounds is rewarded with a Grade 1 race.”
Seven Starlight dates announced
Fair Grounds also announced seven Starlight Racing dates for the Thoroughbred season. The popular social events feature live music, DJs, drink specials and live racing under the lights on select Friday nights. The 2012-2013 dates are Dec. 28, Jan. 18, Feb. 1 (the weekend of Super Bowl XLVII in New Orleans), Feb. 22, March 1, March 8 and March 15. Bands and DJs will be announced once the lineup is finalized. For information on private parties and corporate events at Starlight Racing, contact Group Sales at (504) 948-1285.

meet. Junk is currently serving as racing secretary at Ruidoso Downs, whose 61-day summer season ends Sept. 3, and he has served in the same capacity at Zia Park and several tracks in Arizona, including Prescott Downs and Yavapai Downs. During its June 21 meeting in Albuquerque, the New Mexico Racing Commission approved Sunland Park’s 2012-13 stakes schedule. The 1 1/8-mile, $800,000 Sunland Derby (Grade 3), New Mexico’s only graded Thoroughbred stakes and one of the country’s major Triple Crown preps, will be run on March 24, the same day as the 1 1/16-mile, $200,000 Sunland Park Oaks. Also, track management announced that the Sunland Derby’s primary local prep,
the Borderland Derby, has undergone a name change. The 1 1/16-mile, $130,000 race will be known as the Mine That Bird Derby to honor the New Mexico-based horse who ran second in the 2009 Borderland Derby, two starts before he scored an upset victory in the Grade 1, $2-million Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs. Sunland Park has also changed the name of the Sydney Valentini Handicap (R) for New Mexico-bred distaffers to the Peppers Pride Handicap. The change honors Peppers Pride, a state-bred mare by Desert God who won all 19 of her starts. Sunland Park stall applications are due on Sept. 23. The track’s stable area opens Nov. 12.

JUNE 30, 2012 Evangeline Downs, Opelousas, LA Nine Louisiana-bred stakes dominate Evangeline card Star Guitar’s win as the odds-on favorite in the $100,000 Louisiana Legends Classic highlighted nine stakes for state-breds on Saturday at Evangeline Downs. Each of the stakes had a $100,000 purse, except for the $75,000 Louisiana Legends Starter Stakes. Brittlyn Stables’ homebred Star Guitar raced to his 10th-straight stakes win and 24th victory from 30 starts when he rallied in the lane to win the one-and-onesixteenth-mile Louisiana Legends Classic. The Gerard Melanconridden Star Guitar was timed in 1:43.71 for the three-quarter length score as the 7-10 favorite.

Idefromthebayou was more than four lengths back in third. Mark Guidry rode Kissimmee Kyle over the one-andone-sixteenth mile on the turf in 1:41.17. Trained by Stall, Kissimmee Kyle won a minor stakes at Fair Grounds two starts ago with a late rally. In the Louisiana Legends Sprint at five-and-one-half furlongs, Northpointe Thoroughbreds’ Amanecer de Oro went for gate-to-wire on the lead and drew away to win by more than four lengths as the 3-2 favorite. The Steven Duke-trained colt was clocked in 1:03.55 with Richard Eramia aboard. Pirate Island was second and Unitas finished third. The Afternoon Deelitessired Amanecer de Oro posted his first win since taking the Louisiana Sprint back in December at Fair Grounds. In the Louisiana Legends Mile, Paul Stroderd’s Top Cat
Boogie held the field safe for the entire race and then pulled out to a four-and-onequarter length win as the 17-10 choice. Top Cat Boogie was timed in 1:37.75 for his secondstraight stakes win. Randall Toups was up for trainer Alan Klanfer. In his previous start, Top Cat Boogie won the Rajun Cajun Stakes. Four Joes was second by one-half length over Look At The Time. In the five-and-one-half furlong Louisiana Legends Ladies Sprint Handicap, Roy Zuppardo’s homebred U Belong To Me raced to a 10-1 upset win over Warrior Maid. Wire Me Bessie was third. U Belong To Me raced near the back of the eighthorse field and then made a bold move around the turn and through the stretch to get the one-and-one-quarter length win in 1:04.52 under Ramsey Zimmerman. The Sturges Ducoingtrained U Belong To Me was overlooked in the wagering despite winning a conditioned allowance race in his previous start.

RACE RECAPS Mile for three-year-old fillies, Coteau Grove Farms’ homebred Little Ms Protocol followed the pacesetting Midge Four and then went by that rival in the stretch to win by one-and-one-quarter lengths in 1:37.49. Midge Four held second and She’s Prado’s Idol was well beaten in the string out field. Little Miss Protocol raced to her first win since taking three-straight races, including two stakes, last fall at Delta Downs. In the Louisiana Legends Starter Stakes for horses who have started for a $10,000 claiming price or less since 2010, Knights Prairie Racing’s Well’s Gold pulled away to win by five lengths over Mr. Porter while Kiss My Kriss finished third.

Delta Downs, Vinton, LA Charal Kid gets revenge in Miss Polly Malinche Cattle Company’s Charal Kid gained revenge for a disqualification in last year’s running of the $50,000 Miss Polly Classic when he prevailed in a tight finish on Saturday night at Delta Downs. The gelding was disqualified from the win in last year’s Miss Polly Classic and Acorn
was awarded the win. Charal Kid raced the 400 yards in :19.469 with Martin Rubalcava up. Giorgino was a nose behind for second and it was a neck back to third-place finisher Acorn and Taylors Toastin Papa was also in the hunt, a nose behind Acorn. The Fructuoso Huitrontrained Charal Kid, who was previously trained by Eusevio Huitron, came into the Miss Polly after finishing first or
second in his previous four outs. The six-year-old gelding by Streakin La Jolla won the Streakin La Jolla Stakes at Louisiana Downs. He raced to second-place finishes in the Swift Stakes, Sam Houston Classic and the Develop The Plan Stakes. Eusevio Huitron is currently under indictment for allegedly training horses for the Zetas drug cartel and using a real estate business to launder drug profits.

Ruidoso Downs, NM Fulton, Robbins team up for one-two in Adequan Ruidoso Derby Pandorum and favored Sweet Oblivion, a pair of Joe Kirk Fulton homebreds trained by Mike Robbins, stood out with a one-two finish in the $45,450 Adequan Ruidoso Derby Challenge on Saturday afternoon at Ruidoso Downs. Pandorum, with Roy Baldillez aboard, opened up a clear advantage in the 400-yard stakes and Sweet Oblivion tried to make a late run at her stable mate, but came up onelength short. Mr Taka B finished third, one-and-three-quarter lengths behind Sweet Oblivion. Fulton and Robbins were a dominant force for years and reached the sport’s pinnacle when they combined to race 1984 world champion Dashs Dream, widely considered one the all-time great quarter horse mares. Fulton and Robbins are now back together with horses showing promise at Ruidoso Downs. Pandorum finished second in her Adequan Ruidoso Derby Challenge trial after losing her footing at the start. She got off to a strong start this year and the result was her second stakes win. Last year, the Tres Seis daughter won the John Deere Sam Houston Juvenile Challenge. The Adequan Ruidoso Derby Challenge victory was her fourth win from six starts. Sweet Oblivion was the

4-5 favorite after a devastating trial performance when she won by three-and-one-half lengths with the fastest-qualifying time of :19.867. A daughter of Mr Jess Perry, Sweet Oblivion won one of two starts last year and scored two wins before her runner-up effort in the Adequan Ruidoso Derby Challenge. Debra Gotovac’s 2010 Rainbow Derby winner Swingin Daddyo led the post parade for the Adequan Ruidoso Derby Challenge and was then retired in the winner’s circle. Gotovac is a breast cancer survivor and Saturday was “Pink Day at the Races” to raise funds to increase breast cancer awareness and early detection of the disease that is predicted to take 40,000 lives this year.
of 28. The $180,000 payday made him a millionaire. The Florida bred, who paid $19.60, $8.40 and $4, has now banked $1,068,400. “This is a hard trying horse,’’ said Gomez after his first Shoemaker win. “He and I get along pretty well. We had a good trip today. We just wound him up and made one little run with him. “It was the right kind of race to do that. He’s been training really well. He actually ran a winning race last time and just had a little bad luck. I just let him find himself early on in the race and he came home like I thought he would.’’
This came some 90 minutes after a 10-1 surprise by Camp Victory in the day’s other Grade I, the $250,000 Triple Bend Handicap. By virtue of his third win in four starts over the Betfair Hollywood Park turf course, Jeranimo earned himself an automatic berth in the Breeders’ Cup Mile, which will be run Nov. 3 at Santa Anita. Additionally, as part of prevailing in the Breeders’ Cup “Win and You’re In’’ event, the pre-entry and entry fees will be waived for Jeranimo and owner B.J. Wright will receive a $10,000 travel allowance. Victimized by a slow pace when the beaten choice in the Grade 3 San Francisco April 28 at Golden Gate Fields, Jeranimo, who trailed almost the entire journey, got much Betfair Hollywood quicker fractions (23.59, 46.40 Park, Inglewood, CA Jeranimo powers home and 1:09.81 for six furlongs) to chase Saturday and rein Shoemakeer Mile; sponded when called upon Camp Victory upsets by jockey Garrett Gomez.

Out of the Jeblar mare Shoemaker Mile Saturday at Jera, Jeranimo has won eight Betfair Hollywood Park.
The Shoemaker Mile completed a four win day for Gomez, who also took the first with Grumpy Small Mouth, the fifth with Swift Eagle and the seventh with Jolly Days. Wright was happy Jeranimo was reunited with Gomez, who had ridden the bay to victory in the Grade II Citation Handicap last Nov. 26 in their most recent collaboration before Saturday. “(Pender) is in Europe,’’ said Wright. “He and his wife took a vacation.

RACE RECAPS field advantage (for the BC Mile Nov. 3). And we have Gomez. It can’t get much better than that. “He’s just a great race horse. He’s had some rides where the jockey didn’t know him well, but Garrett seems to ride him really well. We’re really happy with this jockey.’’ Suggestive Boy, a threetime Group I winner in his native Argentina, was second in his United States debut for Hall of Fame trainer Ron McAnally, finishing a halflength in front of pacesetter and 17-10 favorite Little Mike. Mr. Commons, the 2-1 second choice, was a neck back in fourth. Winner of the Grade I Woodford Reserve Turf Classic on the Kentucky Derby undercard May 5 at Churchill Downs, Little Mike received some early pressure from longshot Liberian Freighter, battled gamely in the stretch, but couldn’t match the top pair nearing the finish. Suggestive Boy, who, like the winner, was 8-1, returned $9.40 and $6. The show price on Little Mike, who finished third for the first time in his 18-race career, was $3. “This is a serious horse,’’ said Joe Talamo of the runnerup. “He definitelyt need the race, coming off a layoff. But to do that in a Grade I like that, he’s going to be a real nice horse.’’ Corporate Jungle, Dubai You X Y Z, Hudson Landing and Liberian Freighter completed the order of finish. One day after undergoing successful surgery to remove a brain tumor, trainer Mike Mitchell, watching via computer from the intensive care unit at USC Medical Center, received a get well present when Camp Victory
upset The Factor in the Triple Bend. Saddled by Mitchell’s longtime assistant Phil D’Amato, the 5-year-old Forest Camp gelding rallied outside The Factor and a tiring Smiling Tiger into the stretch and swept past for a 3 ¼ length victory. The final time for the seven furlongs over Cushion Track was 1:22.75. Claimed for $40,000 by Mitchell for Roger Featherston, Gordon Jacobsen and Tom Miller Feb. 13, 2011, Camp Victory won for the third time in 10 races for his current connections. Two of the victories have been in stakes. The Virginia bred, who is out of the Clever Trick mare Victory Trick, captured the Grade III Los Angeles Handicap – after the disqualification of Amazombie – in 2011 prior to his Triple Bend surprise. Overall, Camp Victory, who was ridden by Talamo, has won eight of 23. He’s earned $517,986. No worse than second in three starts at the Triple Bend distance, Camp Victory paid $22.60, $7 and $3.60. “There was a tear or two coming down,’’ said D’Amato of the emotional win. “Mike did all the work. I just had him in maintenance mode. Mike’s always loved this horse and picked him out to claim. “It was like a six way shake the day we got him. The rest is history. Ill be calling them (Mike and wife Denise) shortly. I’m sure he’s elated. This is just unbelievable. I loved the position we were in the whole time. “I’ve been with Mike for seven years now. He’s like my father. He took me under his wing and taught me everything.’’
Denise Mitchell said she was allowed to bring a laptop into the ICU so her husband and daughters McCall and Shea could watch the race. “It was crazy here,’’ she said. “We were all huddled around (the computer). Mike came out of the surgery fine and he’s doing very well. In fact, he’s sitting in a chair right now and isn’t in any pain. That (Camp Victory’s win) was just amazing.’’ The win was the second in the Triple Bend for Talamo, who also prevailed with Bilo in 2007. “There was definitely a little extra emotion there at the wire,’’ he said. “Winning for Mike like that is unbelievable. This horse runs his race every time, but he doesn’t get there quite enough because he’s always running against a bias. “It seems like every time there was a speed horse, they would just keep going. For once everything worked out on paper like we thought it would.’’ Making his first start since finishing sixth in the $2 million Dubai Golden Sheehan March 31 at Meydan Race Course in the United Arab Emirates, The Factor suffered his initial defeat in five races at seven furlongs. After breaking quickly under leading jockey Rafael Bejarano, the 4-year-old gray quickly dispatched of early challenger Italian Rules, shook off 3-1 second choice and defending champion Smiling Tiger, who entered 3-for-3 over Cushion Track, but could not contain the winner. The Factor, who finished 5 ¼ lengths clear of 10-1 shot Mobilized, returned $3.20 and $2.40 as the 9-10 choice and
123-pound top weight. The show price on the California bred Mobilized was $4.60. “He just got a little tired,’’ said Hall of Fame trainer Bob Baffert of The Factor. “He needed the race. I think he’ll move forward off this.’’ Racing will resume Sunday. Post time is 1 p.m. Track gates at Betfair Hollywood Park will open at 9:55 a.m. for simulcasts. The feature event is the $68,000 Robert K. Kerlan Memorial Handicap at six furlongs on turf. Eight were entered, including 123-pound highweight and 2010 CashCall Futurity winner Comma to the Top. The Kerlan is the seventh of nine races.
