Paul Haigh is looking for corners to turn at Newmarket to make the racing interesting

N

ewmarket’s July meeting has great aspirations. But in its present form it’s not going to achieve them. If it wants to be a Royal Ascot Part 2, it lacks the fairly obvious presence of the Queen. If it wants to be rated on a par with York in August, it lacks a focal Group 1 middle-distance race worth speaking of in the same breath as the Juddmonte International. Most of all though what Newmarket lacks is a decent racecourse.

Cue apoplexy among traditionalists. Too bad.

Someone’s got to say these things. What’s missing at Newmarket’s two existing racecourses, the Rowley Mile and the July Course, are turns. Nothing complicated.

Just turns. What is the advantage of turns? None in particular if you’re a trainer who looks forward to racing horses in a straight line. None if you’re a horse probably, although this column’s interviewing techniques do not run to getting a definitive answer.

Very few if you’re a jockey, although it is no doubt irritating to ride an otherwise perfect race on what you’re pretty sure is the best ground, or at least the best ground you’re able to take given your draw, only to find you’ve been run out of a place by three horses about half a furlong away on another part of the course.

What is the advantage then? Racing is a spectator sport, and turns enable the spectator to get some handle on the way a race is going. Without them the spectator has to flick eyes left, right and often centre, then repeat the process several times to get even the vaguest grip on who is in front, let alone which is travelling best. More often than not the commentator, a skilled professional possessed of every possible visual aid and observing from the best possible vantage point, can offer only notional help in this respect.

For anyone at ground level the race as a spectacle is a parrot bereft of life. He or she might as well read about it later online or perhaps even in the next day’s newspaper, assuming it’s still publishing.

The racecourses at Newmarket were laid out in the days when owners on horseback used to ride along with the race for as far as they were able to keep up.

Spectators were not only discouraged, they were chased away by faithful retainers, many with riding crops, cruel expressions and dribbles of saliva on their stubbled chins.

Since then things have changed. There is a reason

The racecourses at Newmarket were laid out in the days when owners on horseback used to ride along with the race for as far as they were able to keep up.

Spectators were not only discouraged, they were chased away by faithful retainers...

The straight Rowley Mile and July courses make it very difficult for the spectator Here we have Zap (left) ridden by PJ McDonald winning the bet365 Handicap at this year’s July meeting Can we tell if he is in front from this head-on perspective?

why no one lays out racecourses in the way they laid Newmarket out 400 years ago.

It is at least partially perhaps the same reason why Champions Day moved to Ascot. The July Course at Newmarket is splendid in many respects. The vistas, the history, the Turf itself. People have been racing on it since before Boadicea watched her chariots from a dais on Devil’s Dyke.

But it and the Rowley Mile are just anachronisms.

Just as the Hunt Cup and the Wokingham and all the other straight-at-you cavalry charges are anachronisms.

And they’ve got all that room available to them in two counties of East Anglia! Time to put a racecourse on it in

first word

Round the bend? this individual’s not very humble opinion.

The disadavantages of straight course racing are most clearly exemplified when it comes to championship events such as the July Cup. Someone trying to pump up public enthusiasm for this year’s running actually had the audacity to suggest that this year’s July Cup “would finally decide which horse is the best sprinter in the world”. Honestly. Straight faced. No joking.

His reasoning, if he had any other than his obligations to PR, was based on the presence of a very good Australian – or at least an Australian now, although he started his career in Britain – in Redkirk Warrior; the presence of the Irish 2,000 Guineas runner-up, of a

former outstanding previous winner in Limato, of Blue Point who’d finished ninth of nine in April’s Group 1 Chairman’s Sprint Prize in Hong Kong, and er, that’s it.

In the end Ballydoyle’s U S Navy Flag was a worthy winner, joining the long list of horses even the greatest trainers have tried to turn into milers before changing their minds and realising that a blazing 6f is their optimum.

Did that make U S Navy Flag the best sprinter in the world? Hardly. Brando who followed him home, is a very good horse who loves Newmarket, but he’s far from being world championship material. Let’s find out about

U S Navy Flag’s global standing if he really does make the mooted trip and take on the Australian sprinters on their home turf in The Everest. He might even come up against IVictory, who made mincemeat of Blue Point in April.

Reminder to all those tempted to overestimate our sprinters: at Sha Tin no British, Irish or mainland European invader has ever got within hailing distance of the best Hong Kongers, who are almost all Australianbred.

Which brings us with a not very elegant segue to the man who rode IVictory at Sha Tin at the end of April. In his three previous triumphs Hong Kong’s new champion sprinter had been ridden by Joao Moreira. Then Zac Purton got the ride after going 15 winners clear of the defending champion that month.

When Moreira announced in May that he was leaving Hong Kong to ride in Japan in the 2018-19 season some may have made the mistake of thinking the Brazilian phenomenon was leaving town in a sulk. Not at all.

He had longed planned the Japan transfer, even to the extent of learning the Japanese language, while still breaking all records in Hong Kong.

the saddle. The other, because agents for some reason are forbidden, is diplomacy in keeping happy the people who decide who gets which rides.

There seems nothing between the friends who are the two best riders in Hong Kong in riding ability, but it was in the second skill that Purton had the edge. Moreira came back fiercely in June and July as owners who’d forsaken him in mid-season returned. We take it almost for granted that Ryan Moore is the world’s best, but he would be the first to agree that, in the toughest raceriding environment on earth, these two are monsters.

A

lpha Centauri is a wonderful filly.

Quorto and Advertise are brimming with promise. The Derby winner Masar is out for the season, and there are fears – maybe the filling in his leg is only a scare – that the US Triple Crown winner Justify may miss the Travers.

But, for sheer old-fashioned newsworthiness, you can hardly beat what went on in Hong Kong over the last couple of months. For those with long memories it brought back Piggott-Breasley, Moore-Mulley, Cauthen-Eddery, Eddery-Carson and the great tussles for supremacy of the more distant past.

Way back in April, Moreira said there were three places he wanted to do riding stints before he hangs up his boots back home in Brazil: “Japan, Australia… and England”.

Imagine that. He usually spends four years in each jurisdiction he dominates, except when there’s a Zac around. By the time he gets here, let’s have a whip round and buy Newmarket at least one racecourse. HQ can keep the other for historic reasons – and to satisfy the sentimentalists.

Deep Impact tops, but first-crop sires do well at JRHA Select The two-day 2018 JRHA Select Sale saw 464 lots offered with 416 sales. The overall aggregate grew by 3.5 per cent to 17,932,000,000 yen, the second time that the sale has accrued over 17,000,000 yen ($159,558,946),

while the average price grew by one per cent to 43,105,769yen ($383,555).

The median dropped slightly from 30,000,000yen to 29,500,000 yen ($262,491). It was a record gross, average, and clearance rate for the sale.

Through the yearling session, 211 horses sold for an aggregate of 9,674,500,000yen ($87,157,658), a 12 per cent growth on 2017. The average

price 45,850,711yen ($413,070) was an increase of 14 per cent compared with 2017, while the clearance rate improved from 89 per cent in 2017 to 90 per cent in 2018.

The top yearling lot was a colt

by Deep Impact out of King Rose, a champion three-year-old filly in New Zealand. He was bought by regular JRHA buyer Masahiro Noda of Danox Co.Ltd for 250,000,000yen ($2,252,253).

“He is very nice individual”, said Noda. “I thought he would be less than $2 million, but today’s market is very strong and I was determined to go for more.”

Lot 13, a colt by King Kamehameha out of Miss Serendipity, who won Grade 1s in North and South America, was bought for 240,000,000yen ($2,162,163) by Yoshihisa Ozasa, who runs a management consulting company and is a

Most tastes, and many pockets, were catered for with seven sprinters, nine milers and three middle-distance stallions on show.

Long gone are the days when Dubawi was slightly overlooked by mare owners and yearling buyers alike and Dubawi now holds pole position at the stallion parde with New Approach and Exceed And Excel close behind on the grid.

I remember using the latter when he first went to stud buying two nominations for £5,000 each after his lacklustre display in the July Cup. I thought Ribchester looked extremely well having last seen him three weeks after ending his busy season last year.

Brazen Beau has a similar profile to Exceed And Excel, but put in some better performances on the racecourse in Europe.

I was impressed by his sire I Am Invincible when he first went to stud at a fee of just A$6,500, but my views were overruled by my oldest Australian breeding partners.

Fortunately we were able to buy on Thursday morning, though not quite early enough for Liam to see the stallion parade, though wife Jenny was able to give him a report over the lunch.

Travelling around Newmarket thorugh July week was a strong PR team from the Victorian Racing Club with the Lexus Melbourne Cup. Led by the first female chair in Australian metropolitan racing Amanda Elliott, the Cup had seven European destinations on its agenda, in addition to Birdsville, one of the remotest Australian outback towns with a population of 170, and Mission Beach on the Cassowary Coast.

It is also due to visit Seoul for the Korean Cup. I was lucky to have two runners, Drum Taps in the inaugural year for a European challenge, and Arabian Story for The Queen, who managed to finish sixth behind the frontrunning Might And Power, having been last first time past the post.

It would have been nice to have a Melbourne Cup alongside as a companion.

Kingsclere influence was definitely present in Roaring Lion’s brave Eclipse win for owner Sheikh Fahad’s Qatar Racing and trainer John Gosden.

It was a first British Group 1 winner for jockey Oisin Murphy and the horse is looked after by an ex-Kingsclere staff member, Benario de Paiva.

I well remember Oisin’s second winner New Fforest at Warwick for Elite Racing.

The race was through the July meeting and Andrew Balding had asked me to saddle her.

It was Oisin’s first winner against senior jockeys and there were about 15 of Elite’s owners there.

I had asked him to come out early to talk to them and he was incredibly professional.

Having studied the form he knew exactly how the race would be run and carried out his own plan as if he had a crystal ball. He has thoroughly deserved all his success.

It is good that jockey David Probert has bounced back from his “Matt Chapman experience” and he gave Horseplay a good ride to win the Lancashire Oaks.

We also have to complete our midsummer liquid fertilising.

It was in Australia that I first came across seaweed as an organic improver.

The foal session (and sale) was topped by a Deep Impact colt (Lot 400). Out of Ria Antonia, the winner of Grade 1 Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies and a champion two-year-old filly in Canada, the colt was bought by Hajime Satomi for 290,000,000yen ($2,612,613).

“This is my pick of the day”, said Satomi. “This colt reminds me of Satono Diamond and my adviser Yasuo Ikee suggests this is the nicest Deep Impact foal here.”

Tony Club purchased a March-born Deep Impact colt out of the Prix Minerve (G2) winner Silverskaya, a half-sister to the Irish Derby (G1) runnerup Seville for 1,180,000,000yen ($1,621,622).

The price was matched by a colt from the first-crop of 2015 Group 1 Japanese Derby Duramente (King Kamehameha).

“He has great pedigree, great conformation, and he is a good mover,” reported Hiroyasu Takeuchi, bloodstock adviser to purchaser Nick Co. Ltd after buying the colt out of the Grade 1 runner-up I’m Yours (Falbrav).

“He has 4x4 of Dyna Curl, the Japanese Oaks winner of 1983, which looks very attractive for me.”

“We have the yearling out of Lasting Song by Lord Kanaloa, and we like him a lot,” said Yoshihiro Kunimochi, racing manager for KT Racing.

....Girls aloud

he writer Kamil Toume once wrote that “the real competitive advantage in any business is one word only, which is ‘people’”. And nowhere is this more true than in the bloodstock industry, whether it be in the racing or breeding spheres. Ours is a business that requires patience, passion, perseverance, dedication and unusual working hours combined with healthy measures of elbow grease, blood, sweat and tears.

Our people are the backbone of this industry and the testament of this can be regularly seen in the high calibre of winners at the Godolphin Stud & Stable Staff Awards held in Ireland and the UK, Australia, the US and France.

Our industry is full of wonderful people who give not just our individual organisations within the business a competitive edge, but also means that the bloodstock industry and the sport in general can shine internationally.

In recent times finding these “people” has become more and more difficult for our industry and this has become a serious cause for concern. There are a number of contributing factors which has led to a serious difficulty in finding employees – factors such as labour laws, visa restrictions, increases in the levels of education, young people being increasingly drawn towards industry and technology and away from agriculture.

There are many excellent courses in place in both the UK and Ireland at all levels of the industry from certificates to diplomas and on to degree courses such Equine Science and Equine Business.

There are now also masters level courses with the creation of the BHA-supported MBA at the University of Liverpool.

Industry educational bodies such as JETS, RACE, the British Racing School, the National Stud, the Irish National Stud, TBA, and the ITBA all provide hands-on-training, which give practical learning for people entering the bloodstock workplace, as well as on-the-job training for those already employed.

There are also special industry programmes in place such as the BHA graduate scheme, the Godolphin Flying Start, HRI internship and the ITBA apprentice scheme.

of 148 and 129 at $38,500 and $44,000.

Foaled and raised at Yarraman Park, Hinchinbrook achieved a top 20 placing in this season’s sires’ table, seasonal earnings of $6.3 million from 100 winners headed by the Group 1 juvenile-winning filly Seabrook, successful in the Champagne Stakes in April.

“We are devastated as you can imagine,” said stud manager Harry Mitchell. “He’s been a special horse for us and we believed in him from the start. He wasn’t an easy horse to get going as he was not the most fertile, but he kept proving himself and getting that good horse.”

Bloodstock agents Cathy Grassick and Tina Rau share a column discussing bloodstock and racing issues.

Grassick debates staff shortages in bloodstock and racing

The bloodstock world has done well to keep apace of the demand for further education by creating and developing these courses, but it is important to get the message out to those who educate and form the decisions of young people that there is a career structure in place These programmes tend to attract those who already who have a natural affinity to work with horses, due to maybe their upbringing or a love of horses.

There is a missed opportunity if we do not look outside of this and show the opportunities available to those who may not have previously considered a career in the industry.

After all, ours is an exciting international industry which can offer a wide range of ongoing career options such as sports management, training, journalism, logistics, media, agriculture and veterinary.

On the flip side, there is a definite fear amongst industry employers that all of these courses and qualifications, as wonderful as they are, create other problems.

Many studs and trainers have difficulty finding general staff to work in the yards or ride out, and with the increased difficulties with labour laws and visa requirements, it is becoming impossible to fill all of the positions vacant in the industry. The looming threat of Brexit does little to aid the fears of the many employers who may only find it more and more difficult to obtain workers from abroad to meet the requirements of their businesses.

It is important that we continue to put time and funding towards lobbying respective government departments to provide work permits for essential staff where positions cannot be filled within the country. If we can not find the right people to give us our competitive advantage and to make our business great, then it will result in a curtailing of industry and sport. This would be a great shame and at a moment when our sport is becoming increasingly accessible and admired internationally.

We need to keep moving forward and building on our strengths and the only way that we can do this is to continue to get access to those people who want to help us work towards that goal.

War Front is the marmite of stallions in Europe with Claiborne Farm’s son of Danzig creating strong differences in opinion, mainly about his ability to sire horses who maintain their level of brilliance at three and older.

After high-profile juveniles who failed to

train on – including Air Force Blue, Hit It A Bomb and Brave Anna – from their juvenile top level successes, plenty of people feel War Front has questions to answer.

However, there are as many people who believe he doesn’t, and U S Navy Flag’s impressive win in the July meeting’s centre piece came a year after his full-sister Roly Poly, won the Group 1 Falmouth Stakes.

They are the second and third foals out of Misty For Me, who won four times at the highest level, including the Moyglare Stakes (G1) and Prix Marcel Boussac (G1) at two

She was also third in the Group 1 Matron Stakes and finished her career with a third in the Grade 1 Breeders’ Cup Filly and Mare Turf over 1m3f.

The daughter of Galileo was first sent to Fastnet Rock, a mating which produced US Grade 3 winner Cover Song, bought by Bobby Flay at the end of her three-year-old season for $1.6 million.

Her second foal Roly Poly was second in the 1,000 Guineas (G1) and Coronation Stakes (G1) to stable companion Winter before making the breakthrough at Group 1 level 12 months’ ago.

She followed her Falmouth Stakes victory with success in the Group 1 Prix Rothschild at Deauville and added a third top-level triumph

full-brother to U S Navy Flag and Roly Poly and was covered by War Front this spring.

U S Navy Flag won two Group 1 contests as a juvenile – both of them on Newmarket’s Rowley mile – the 6f Middle Park Stakes and the Dewhurst over a furlong further.

Naturally that final success, allied to Roly Poly’s success at a mile and Misty For Me stretching to win a 1m2f Group 1, lent credence to the belief that U S Navy Flag would excel over a mile.

However, the evidence of the early part of this season was sketchy, despite toughing it out to cling on to second place in the Irish 2,000 Guineas. A poor placing in the St James’s Palace Stakes (G1) at Royal Ascot precipitated a drop back to sprinting for the tough colt.

As a sprinting son of War Front, out of a Galileo mare, U S Navy Flag has high potential value as a stallion for Coolmore who continues the quest to replace the irreplaceable in Galileo.

U S Navy Flag would also have international appeal as a stallion: his paternal half-brother and the champion juvenile Air Force Blue shuttles between Coolmore’s Ashford Stud in Kentucky and their base in Australia.

Possibly with that in mind, it was announced quickly after his July Cup triumph that U S Navy Flag could take up Coolmore’s slot in The Everest, the 6f sprint at Royal Randwick in Sydney on October 13, the world’s richest Turf race.

U S Navy Flag would also have international appeal as a stallion: his paternal half-brother and the champion juvenile Air Force Blue shuttles between Ashford in Kentucky and Australia in the Sun Chariot Stakes last October.

Alpha: the leader of a generation

Alpha Centuari confirmed her position as the best filly in Europe over a mile with her utterly dominant display in the Group 1 Falmouth Stakes. The daughter of Mastercraftsman, owned and bred by the Niarchos family, was making it three Group 1 wins on the trot after victories in the Irish 1,000 Guineas and Coronation Stakes.

With champion East Of The Moon as her second dam and the magnificent Miesque as her third, Alpha Centauri comes from a line of greatness nurtured by the Niarchos family and her pedigree was discussed at length in the May-June issue of International Thoroughbred following Royal Ascot.

Bred by Maria Mannon, Wells Farhh Go was a €16,000 Goffs November Foal Sale purchase by Howson and Houldsworth and was reoffered for sale at Tattersalls Book 3 through Gortskagh House Stud. He was bought by Tim Easterby for 16,000gns.

Juvenile form takes shape:

Advertise, who finished second at Royal Ascot to Calyx, goes one place better in the July Stakes (G2)

Advertise backs up after the Coventry

T

he juvenile Group races on the first two days of the July meeting were a reminder of the class and ability transmitted by Oasis Dream.

A sire perhaps not such “in vogue” at the yearling sales over the last couple of seasons, the July Cup hero, who has sired 25 Group 1 winners to date, had the spotlight shone on him at Newmarket.

Advertise did exactly that for his sire Showcasing, a son of Oasis Dream, in the Group 2 July Stakes, the first of the juvenile Group contests at the July meeting.

Runner-up to the leading juvenile Calyx in the Group 2 Coventry Stakes, Advertise trained by Martyn Meade for Phoenix Thoroughbreds, was sent off favourite for the 6f contest and he duly obliged.

The result was a significant one for Cheveley Park Stud, who bred Advertise as well as Konchek, 2l behind in second. Stud manager Chris Richardson did admit he might have preferred the result the other way around – Konchek is a son of the farm’s second-season sire Lethal Force.

Cheveley Park bred Advertise out of Furbelow, a winning daughter of Pivotal and a homebred for the farm out of the Mr. Prospector mare Red Tiara.

Furbelow is a full-sister to Red Diadem, who is the second dam of Group 2 Richmond Stakes winner Saayerr. Their dam Red Tiara, another homebred Cheveley Park mare, is out of the multiple Group 3 winner Heart Of Joy, who was placed in both the 1,000 and Irish 1,000 Guineas.

Bred by Juddmonte Farms, Showcasing is the most successful stallion son to date of Oasis Dream. Standing at Whitsbury Manor in Wiltshire, and a three-parts brother to Camacho, sire of this season’s Group 1 Poules d’Essai des Poulains winner Teppal, Showcasing has two stakes winners from this, his fifth crop of two-year-olds.

www.internationalthoroughbred.net

Showcasing, who stood at £35,000 this spring, is the sire of seven winners from 25 two-year-old runners this year He is the sire of 12 individual Group winners so far with dual Group 1-winning sprinter Quiet Reflection, a 2.1 million guineas purchase by MV Magnier at the 2017 Tattersalls’ December Mares’ Sale, the best of his progeny so far.

Showcasing, who stood at £35,000 for the 2018 season, is the sire of seven winners from 25 two-year-old runners this year.

Pretty Pollyanna gets her way

Pretty Pollyanna sprung a 20-1 shock in

Friday’s Group 2 Duchess of Cambridge Stakes for jockey Silvestre de Sousa, trainer Michael Bell and owner-breeder Bill Gredley.

The daughter of Oasis Dream hails from the same family as Gredley’s horse of a lifetime, User Friendly – her second dam is Friendlier, an unraced half-sister to Gredley’s triple Classic heroine and Arc runner-up.

By Zafonic, Friendlier is the dam of Grade 3 Robert J Frankel Stakes winner Gender Agenda, a daughter of Holy Roman Emperor, and the Listed-placed Motivator filly Madam Defarge.

Her unraced Shamardal daughter Unex Mona Lisa is the dam of three fillies of racing age, with all three now winners and Pretty Pollyanna the best of them so far.

Offered for sale through Tattersalls October Book 1 last year, she was bought back

by Gredley’s Stetchworth and Middle Park Farms for 50,000gns.

Juddmonte Farm’s Oasis Dream stood at what could be considered the excellent value fee of £30,000 in 2018, and Pretty Pollyanna is one of three Group winners for the sire this year. She is the first from his two-year-old

uk racing crop – conceived off a fee of £75,000 – which has numbered 13 runners and six individual winners so far.

Pretty Pollyanna’s dam sire Shamardal is a

growing influence in that role – the Shadwell sire and Irish 2,000 Guineas winner Awtaad heading a burgeoning group of horses who boast Shamardal as their broodmare sire.

Quorto: trainer Charlie Appleby sees more improvement to come from the Group 2 winner

Quorto: Dubawi’s 101st Group winner

Quorto began a new chapter in the story of Darley’s supersire Dubawi with his victory in the Group 2 Superlative Stakes.

Quorto’s success in the 7f contest gave Dubawi, who stands for a fee of £250,000 at Sheikh Mohammed’s Dalham Hall Stud, his 101st individual Group winner.

Quorto is the first foal out of the Listed Swettenham Stud Fillies’ Trial winner Volume, who finished third to Taghrooda in the Oaks and occupied the same position behind Bracelet in the Irish Oaks of 2014.

Trained by Luca Cumani for her breeder Stuart Stuckey, Volume was purchased

by John Ferguson on behalf of Darley for 700,000gns at the Tattersalls December Mare Sale.

Volume is a product of Wildenstein family breeding as she is a Peintre Celebre daughter of Victoire Finale, successful over a mile and purchased for 40,000gns by the Kern Lillingstone Association as a five-year-old at the 2005 Tattersalls December Mares Sale.

She is a half-sister to Vertical Speed by Bering, second in the St Leger, and their dam Victoire Bleu, a daughter of Legend Of France, who won the Group 1 Prix du Cadran for the Wildenstein family.

The Godolphin homebred Lover’s Knot (Invincible Spirit) took the Newmarket maiden. Stallion Dubawi features again, this time as the dam sire

Quorto’s victory was also notable for providing Mount Nelson with his first Group win as a broodmare sire. Boardsmill Stud’s Group 1-winning son of Rock Of Gibraltar has proven himself a versatile dual-purpose sire capable of siring Group 1-winning sprinters through to Cheltenham Festival-winning Grade 1 hurdlers.

Quorto will have the opportunity of adding Group 1-winning damsire to Mount Nelson’s list of achievements in the Vincent O’Brien National Stakes at The Curragh on Irish Champions’ Weekend in September.

Lover’s Knot wraps- up the Newmarket maiden

Lover’s Knot, winner of the two-year-old fillies’ maiden on Thursday’s Newmarket card, was a notable homebred success for Godolphin.

The daughter of Invincible Spirit is entered in the Group 2 Lowther Stakes and is a half-sister to Blair House, who won the Group 1 Jebbel Hatta in Meydan earlier this year, and to the three-year-old Teofilo colt Key Victory, who won the Listed Havana Gold Newmarket Stakes on Guineas weekend.

The winner was bred in Kentucky by Machmer Hall and she was a $400,000 purchase by MV Magnier at last September’s Keeneland Yearling Sale from Select Sales.

So Perfect is the third foal and second winner out of Hopeoverexperience, a winning three-year-old by the Unbridled’s Song sire Songandaprayer.

Her first foal Scat Edie is a full-brother to So Perfect and a winner in Japan.

Hopeoverexperience is a half-sister to the Grade 2 Illinois Derby winner Costown Cat by Distorted Humor.

So Perfect holds entries for the Group 2 Lowther Stakes and the Grade 1 Phoenix and Moyglare Stud Stakes.

Lyons success for Prince Khalid

Viadera was a notable winner for Ger Lyons on the second day of the Dubai Duty Free Irish Derby weekend as the two-year-old filly was his first winner for Prince Khalid Abdullah and Juddmonte Farms.

The daughter of Bated Breath made quite the impression on her debut, beating a field of colts and geldings over 6f.

Lyons suggested a step up to 7f for her next outing and that she would improve for the run. Her pedigree suggests that a mile

or 1m2f would be within her grasp as she is a three-parts sister to this year’s Listed Blue Riband Trial winner Crossed Baton, who was second on his most recent run in the Group 3 Hampton Court Stakes at Royal Ascot for Frankie Dettori and John Gosden.

He holds an entry in the Group 2 Great Voltiguer Stakes at York.

Their dam Sacred Shield won over 1m2f at three and the daughter of Beat Hollow is a three-quarters sister to Clepsydra (Sadler’s Wells), dam of Group 1 Criterium International heroine Passage Of Time, who is the dam of Time Test by Dubawi.

Sacred Shield is also a half-sister to Double Crossed by Observatory, who is the dam of the four-time Group 1 winner Twice Over, now a successful young sire in South Africa.

Goddess lives up to her name

The aptly named Goddess was a most impressive winner of the fillies’ maiden at Leopardstown on July 12 and duly went to the head of some bookmakers’ markets for next season’s fillies’ Classics.

A debut fraught with trouble at The Curragh in June was eyecatching and her pedigree is impeccable as she comes from one of the greatest families in the stud book.

Goddess is the seventh foal and fifth winner out of Cherry Hinton, a Green Desert close sister to the outstanding Sea The Stars, and a half-sister to the incomparable sire Galileo.

Cherry Hinton is the dam of Group 1 Irish Oaks and Group 2 Ribblesdale winner Bracelet

by Montjeu and her full-sister Wading, successful in the Group 2 Rockfel Stakes.

Goddess is a daughter of Camelot and a full-sister to Athena, successful in the Grade 1 Belmont Oaks. Her second dam is the incredible broodmare Urban Sea. Goddess could become the third Group/ Grade 1 winner out of Cherry Hinton in the Moyglare Stakes at The Curragh on Irish Champions’ Weekend.

Right on Kew Kew Gardens won the Grand Prix de Paris, but Jocelyn de Moubray questions the value of the race as a middle-distance summer highlight in France.

He also reviews the wider European Group 1 results, which has seen a strong summer for German bloodlines

C

oolmore’s Kew Gardens, a son of Galileo trained by Aidan O’Brien ran out a comfortable threequarter length winner of the Group 1 Grand Prix de Paris.

The race did not create a great deal of suspense attracting only six runners and once Kew Gardens took over from his pacemaker Nelson he always had the race in safe keeping. He was challenged

by Neufbosc, a son of Mastercraftsman trained by Pia Brandt, seemingly the only trainer in France happy to run her best horses at ParisLongchamp in July.

Kew Gardens is the 14th winner of this race over 1m4f run on July 14.

At the beginning the Grand Prix de Paris attracted competitive fields, but in recent years the race has been gradually abandoned by France’s trainers and is no longer a real objective for anyone.

Kew Gardens, a son of Galileo, has gone from winning the 1m6f Queen’s Vase (G2) to middle-distance Group 1 success

www.internationalthoroughbred.net

British, Irish and German-trained middledistance three-year-olds have other more important domestic objectives and many of France’s trainers do not want to risk their best three-year-olds in July, and certainly not at ParisLongchamp.

It is time for the long-term sponsors Juddmonte and France Galop to reconsider its plae. The 1m2f Prix du Jockey-Club has found its place in the international calendar, but the Grand Prix de Paris is just not working as a Classic alternative for France’s three-year-olds over 1m4f.

A possible solution would be to turn the Prix Niel at ParisLongchamp in September into a Group 1, but there seems little point persisting with the current arrangement.

It is unfortunate there is not a suitable target for France’s middle distance threeyear-olds.

Waldgeist, by Galileo and out of the nine-year-old Monsun mare Waldlerche, wins the Group 1 Grand Prix de Saint-Cloud under Pierre Charles Boudot

The Prix Jean Prat was another of France’s Group 1 races which was transformed in 2005 and since then it has been run over a mile in early July, for many years at Chantilly and this year in Deauville.

In contrast the “new” Jean Prat has been a success from the beginning and year after year it attracts a competitive, international field.

This year the field included the French and German Guineas winners Olmedo and Ancient Spirit, the Group 1-placed colts Gustav Klimt and Hey Gaman, the very promising colts Wusool and Cascadian, as well as Intellogent, Fiona Carmichael’s son of Intello who had finished a close-up fourth in the Prix du Jockey-Club when racing from a wide draw.

Year after year the British racing press is convinced the Jockey-Club is an ordinary race, but, more often than not, the horses in question then prove themselves to be high class performers.

At the time of writing Study Of Man’s Classic victory is looking pretty good as those he beat at Chantilly included Intellogent, Hunting Horn, Rostropovich and Flag Of Honor, who have all improved their ratings since the beginning of June.

Wusool, who had looked very good when

...if at the beginning the Grand Prix de Paris attracted competitive fields, in recent years the race has been gradually abandoned... winning a Group 3 at Chantilly in June, made the running but was outspeeded in the final stages by Intellogent, who raced in the middle of the course, and the André Fabre-trained Cascadian, who made his run on the stands’ rail.

The Fabrice Chappet-trained Intellogent held Godolphin’s colt to win by a neck with Gustav Klimt a length behind in third.

Again it is hard to understand why it was assumed Gustav Klimt had not shown his best form, after all for one of his trainer’s three-year-olds he has had a relatively easy season racing only five times and coming off a three-week break after his second place in the

St James’s Palace Stakes.

Cascadian, a son of New Approach, has always looked like a potential top horse and had beaten the Richard Hannon-trained Tigre du Terre with a spectacular turn of foot on his seasonal reappearance at Maisons-Laffitte.

With hindsight Intellogent should probably have taken his chance in the Poule d’Essai des Poulains, but he was beaten on his first two starts of the season over a mile and looked to improve when stepping up in trip to win the 1m1f Prix de Guiche.

He is a first Group 1 winner for his sire Intello and a first black-type winner for his dam Nuit Polaire, a daughter of Kheleyf and from a German staying family.

Intellogent’s breeder the Haras des Monceaux bought Nuit Polaire from Newsells as a yearling in Deauville.

She is a half-sister to the Italian Oaks winner Night Of Magic and to leading hurdler Melon, who was second in the Champion Hurdle at Cheltenham this year.

Another yearling filly from a German family offered for sale in Deauville by Newsells Park Stud was responsible for both Group winners at Saint-Cloud at the course’s big meeting at the beginning of July.

Walderlerche, a Monsun half-sister to the St Leger winner Masked Marvel, was offered

www.internationalthoroughbred.net

euro racing at the 2010 Arqana August Sale, but did not attract a great deal of attention.

She was bought by Crispin de Moubray [JdeM’s brother, Ed] on behalf of Gestüt Ammerland for €100,000 and has been owned since by a partnership between Ammerland and Newsells.

Waldlerche only ran four times and after winning her first two starts in the style of a top horse, including the Group 3 Prix Penelope, her career lost its way.

She is already an outstanding broodmare.

Her first foal, the Galileo colt Waldgeist, won the Group 1 Criterium de Saint Cloud for a partnership between Coolmore, Ammerland and Newsells and was only narrowly beaten in the Prix du Jockey-Club by Brametot.

Waldgeist’s career appeared to have lost its way too and Ammerland bought out Coolmore’s share in the horse only to see him being beaten at both Ascot and Munich at the end of his three-year-old career.

At four, Waldgeist has been a

On good ground and in a fast-run race Waldgeist looks to be a match for the best European middle-distance horses different proposition altogether and after impressive victories in a Group 3 at ParisLongchamp and a Group 2 at Chantilly, the Fabre-trained colt stepped up again to win the Group 1 Grand Prix de Saint Cloud. A slowly run race and an excellent performance from the Dubawi filly Coronet meant that Waldgeist got his head in front on the

line to win by the minimum. On good ground and in a fast run race Waldgeist looks to be a match for the best European middle-distance horses.

His younger sister Waldlied, a daughter of New Approach, might well turn out to be an even better horse.

Unplaced on her only start at two, Waldlied has improved rapidly at three and won the Group 2 Prix de Malleret very easily indeed from the promising Fuse, with the English Group winner Give And Take beaten over 8l in third.

Waldmark, the dam of Waldlerche, was bred by Gestüt Ravensberg, who developed this family.

She is a daughter of Wurftaube, who was a champion in Germany at three and four and the winner of the German St Leger.

Waldmark was trained by Sir Michael Stoute for Newsells and finished second in the Falmouth Stakes.

Waldlerche has a two-year-old Sea The Stars colt, who is in training with John Gosden for Ammerland, and a yearling colt

by Kingman.

euro racing The Deutsches Derby, run for once on good ground at Hamburg at the beginning of July, was another big race dominated by the progeny of outstanding German-based mares.

Gestüt Röttgen’s Weltstar (Soldier Hollow) narrowly beat his stable companion Gestüt Park Wiedingen’s Destino to win a second consecutive Derby for his owner and breeder, his trainer Markus Klug and for his dam Wellenspiel, whose first two foals Windstoss and Weltstar are now Derby winners.

The ten-year-old Sternkonig mare Wellenspiel was only an ordinary racehorse winning two handicaps from 13 career starts over 1m2f and 1m3f.

Her dam, the champion two-year-old Well Known, continued to produce with success in her 20s as Wellenspiel was born when she was a 21-year-old mare, and her last foal, the Listed-winning Soldier Hollow filly Weichsel, was born when she was 25!

This family has been with Röttgen for nearly a 100 years as Wellenspiel’s seventh dam Winnica was imported from Poland in 1922.

The runner-up’s dam Divya came close to achieving a similar double.

Her first foal, the Soldier Hollow colt Dschingis Secret, finished third in the Deutsches Derby beaten less than a length

by Ispahan and has since gone on to win the Group 1 Grosser Preis von Berlin, the Prix Foy (G2), this year’s Group 2 Grosser Hansa-Preis and is set to return to ParisLongchamp for

On good ground and in a fast-run race Waldgeist looks to be a match for the best European middle-distance horses this year’s Arc de Triomphe.

Her second foal, the Soldier Hollow filly Diana Storm, has been Listed and Group placed in Germany and France, and her third foal is Destino.

Divya is by Platini and was also a handicapper though a little better than Wellenspiel as she won three races.

Her grand-dam, the Northern Dancer mare Diana Dance, was bred by Windfields Farm and was bought by Helmut von Finck at the Keeneland July Sale.

She was a Group 3 winner, but produced only two foals and one filly – the Rainbow Quest mare Diana’s Quest, who is Destino’s second dam.

Soldier Hollow, who now stands at Gestüt Auenquelle, raced in von Finck’s colours after being bought as a yearling in Newmarket

Soldier Hollow: Weltstar was his fifth Group 1 winner and second Deutsche Derby success

from Car Colston Hall Stud.

The son of In The Wings never won over further than 1m2f, but he was a top horse at that distance winning Group 1s in Germany and Italy, as well as the Prix Dollar (G2).

Weltstar is his fifth Group 1 winner and second Deutsches Derby winner after Pastorius, who came from his first crop.

Soldier Hollow has proved to be a good match for German-based mares as he tends to get well-balanced athletic horses, many of whom, like Weltstar, are of only average size.

S

oldier Hollow retired to stud as an eight-year-old and has taken time to be established, not least as many in Germany felt his progeny lacked size and would not be able to stay 1m4f.

The Deutsches Derby is usually a difficult race to rate as the strange nature of the Hamburg track and the fact that the ground is often either very firm or very heavy has put off runners from abroad.

This year’s edition looks to be a good one.

The ground was perfect, all of the horses rated highly beforehand took part in the finish and Weltstar, Destino, Royal Youmzain and Salve Del Rio have been among the leaders of their generation from the moment they reached the track as two-year-olds.

The quartet are unlikely to be asked to race outside Germany this year, but one or two of them will run against older horses in the Grosser Preis von Berlin in early August.

Germany’s breeders continue to produce racehorses, broodmares and stallions able to influence the best races all over the world.

It is a persistent anomaly that a country, which produces less than a 1,000 foals a year and where racing is only a minor sport despite its popularity on a local level – there were 20,000 people at Hamburg to watch the Derby – continues to have such an international influence.

There is no simple explanation, but a part of it has to be the fact that all of those breeding thoroughbreds in Germany are trying to win the Derby and to produce middle-distance horses, while German breeders do tend to believe in and nurture female families.

The ‘W’ family from Ravensberg, the ‘W’ family from Rottgen and now the ‘D’ family from Park Wiedingen, more or less the same people have been breeding from, observing and experimenting with these families for decades, and with great success.

Pavel gets his Grade 1 in the bag And provides sire Creative Cause with a first G1 progeny success, writes Melissa Bauer-Herzog

T

he six weeks following the Triple Crown is traditionally a quiet spell in US racing, but that hasn’t been the case the past few years with a Grade 1 race nearly every weekend over the past

month.

Fittingly, the night Justify paraded at Churchill Downs a week after the Belmont, the Stephen Foster (G1) – a Breeders’ Cup Classic Win and You’re In race – was won

by Pavel. Trained by Doug O’Neill, Pavel is campaigned and ridden by the same

connections as 2016 Kentucky Derby winner Nyquist and 2012 Triple Crown hopeful, I’ll Have Another.

Pavel has often been pointed at Grade 1 targets since starting his career last July with six of his nine graded stakes attempts coming at the level. While his closest success until this point had been a third in the Jockey Club Gold Cup last year, he’d also finished fourth in the Dubai World Cup (G1) and Gold Cup at Santa Anita (G1) in 2018.

The 3l Stephen Foster victory earned Pavel the distinction of becoming the first Grade 1 winner for his young sire Creative Cause (Giant’s Causeway), who currently leads the third-crop sires’ list by number of stakes winners and earnings.

That result topped a big night for the stallion – a Grade 1-winning juvenile, runnerup in the Santa Anita Derby (G1) and third in the Preakness (G1) – who also had a threeyear-old daughter claim a runner-up spot at Listed level earlier in the day.

At the end of the month, the US Turf sprint star Long On Value finally added a Grade 1 victory to his resume in the Highlander Stakes.

Bought by trainer Brad Cox at the Keeneland November Breeding Stock Sale last year for $100,000, the seven-year-old has not only paid back the investment in earnings, but made himself into a potential stallion after previous close

It’s safe to assume that the Grade 1 victory earned Funtastic a spot on a stallion roster somewhere in coming years

attempts at Grade 1 success.

Finishing a painfully close second in Dubai last year and third when stepping up to a mile in the Woodbine Mile last September, Long On Value has gone two-for-two in his starts this year after the trainer switch and is the best horse sired by Value Plus (Unbridled’s Song), who stands in British Columbia,

Canada after stints in Kentucky and then Florida.

The Turf invasion continued the following week when Money Multiplier (Lookin At Lucky) finished second in his sixth Grade 1 to Funtastic (More Than Ready) in the United Nations Stakes (G1).

It’s safe to assume that the Grade 1 victory earned Funtastic a spot on a stallion roster somewhere in coming years – quite probably his owner’s Three Chimneys Farm, Kentucky – as he now has the form in the book alongside his stellar pedigree.

By the legendary More Than Ready, Funtastic is a half-brother to Saint Liam, a former Horse of the Year, and to Quiet Giant, the dam of Three Chimneys’ champion Gun Runner.

He’s had an interesting start of things running mostly in allowances after breaking his maiden in his second start, and making his graded stakes debut a year later.

With More Than Ready entering the

us news twilight of his career and no obvious heir to take over the throne, there’s no doubt Funtastic will be in the race to take up his sire’s mantle.

However, in an age where it’s hard to stand in Kentucky without a serious race record, he may have to do a bit more to catch the attention of Kentucky breeders.

F

untastic isn’t the only More Than Ready son making waves on the Turf this summer with the versatile Catholic Boy forming a rivalry with Analyze It, reminiscent of the great battles between Affirmed and Alydar.

The pair have met up twice so far this summer with nothing between them at the finish line.

In both races, Catholic Boy has shown his courage when giving up the lead to Analyze It, just to come back and win by a small margin.

Their first meeting in the Pennine Ridge Stakes (G3),was a race in which Catholic Boy allowed Analyze It to draw away by over a length before taking back the lead before the wire.

In the Belmont Derby it was easy to imagine Affirmed and Alydar’s 1978 Belmont Stakes (G1) battle on the Belmont Dirt as they came to the wire.

Catholic Boy again gave Analyze It false hope with a lead in the stretch, but with a desperate last second surge, Catholic Boy took home his first career Grade 1 victory by a head. Catholic Boy is the second foal out of Bernardini mare Song Of Bernadette and the best horse in the first three generations of his family.

Though the Belmont Derby duel stole the show, it was the third-place finisher who made the day a good one for Ireland – Royal Ascot Hampton Court (G3) winner Hunting Horn being the second by Camelot at Belmont to hit the board following the impressive win in the Belmont Oaks (G1) by his daughter Athena.

Near the back of the field for most of the race while giving the leader over 5l, Athena thrived under patient handling from jockey Ryan Moore in the 1m2f race.

Though she had finished third in the Pretty Polly Stakes (G1) just six days before and had also made a cross-Atlantic trip, Athena still produced a massive turn of foot to lead home a Europe-bred top three.

This was the first major appearance for Camelot runners in the US and it’s safe to say it turned heads.

New sires on the yearling sales sheet

O

nly days after the Stars and Stripes Festival at Belmont Park, buyers converged on Lexington for the first major yearling sale of the year at Fasig-Tipton’s Newton Paddocks.

One star of the sale was the lone offering by Triple Crown winner and first-crop sire American Pharoah with the filly selling only minutes after missing her reserve in the ring.

Sold privately for $200,000 to J J Crupi, it’s likely she will be seen at a two-year-old sale next year.

There’s no doubt American Pharoah will be in the spotlight at this autumn’s yearling sales, but at Fasig-Tipton the 2013 Belmont Stakes winner Palace Malice gave Hill ‘n’ Dale more than enough marketing material with his first yearlings offered at auction.

The first major son of Curlin to stand at stud, four of Palace Malice’s five offerings sold for six figures, including two to bring $250,000 or more.

The stallion not only led all first-crop sires with more than two to sell by average and median, but also had the sixth-highest priced yearling of the sale behind top sires, including Flatter, Street Sense and Into Mischief.

The sale’s best was saved for near-last when Lane’s End Farm’s Flatter colt, second-to-last through the ring, topped the price table with a final bid of $520,000 from Al Rashid Stable – one of three bought on the day by the operation.

Already named Silvertonguedevil, the colt had some major updates after the catalogue was released with his two-year-old three-quarters brother winning in England (Semoum by Bernardini and trained by George Peckham) and his dam’s half-sister India producing her first Group 1 winner – Mozu Ascot (Frankel), who won the Yasuda Kinen at Tokyo.

Even without those updates, the colt was one of the standouts of the sale on pedigree – his dam No Curfew is a half-sister to India and to Pilfer, the dam of two Grade 1 winners both

by Bernardini – the Woodwood Stakes winner To Honor And Serve (Bernardini) and Angela Renee, winner of the Chandelier Stakes (G1) – as well as Elnaawi (Street Sense), third in the Donn Handicap.

T

he period immediately after Royal Ascot is not the busiest in the international horseracing calendar.

It is the “off” season in Australia and will shortly be in Hong Kong, while France and the US only really get back into top gear in August with Deauville and Saratoga.

Not one of the World’s Best Racehorse Rankings’ top 10 horses ran in the period under review, with Gun Runner retired, Justify injured (as is Masar, who is just outside that top 10) and Winx on her way back from a

48

spell on the sidelines.

Nonetheless, there have been some significant contests dotted around, not least a trio of Group 1s in Britain that did much to confirm the pecking order in their respective divisions.

If there was any doubt that Alpha Centauri (Mastercraftsman) was the best three-year-old filly around following her wins in the Irish 1,000 Guineas and Royal Ascot’s Coronation Stakes, then it disappeared when she romped home by four and a half lengths in Newmarket’s Falmouth Stakes (G1), a performance which prompted

www.internationalthoroughbred.net

a 126 rating from Timeform.

By way of comparison, Alpha Centauri’s great grandma, the legendary Miesque, was rated 131 as a three-year-old in 1987 and 133 the following year.

As it is, Timeform has Alpha Centauri the best three-year-old of either sex in Europe at present, on 127, two ahead of Masar (New Approach), Roaring Lion (Kitten’s Joy) and U S Navy Flag (War Front).

The last two were solid rather than spectacular winenrs – in the Coral-Eclipse at Sandown (from 124-rated Saxon Warrior) and the July Cup (from 120-rated Brando), with both colts

significantly dropped in distance.

There is talk of U S Navy Flag taking up an Australian engagement in the Everest Cup at Randwick in October, when there seems a better chance of his meeting 125-rated Redkirk Warrior (only tenth at Royal Ascot and Newmarket) at the top of his game back on his own patch.

The best three-year-olds have not yet met the very best older horses – the likes of Cracksman, Enable (when she reappears), Poet’s Word, Harry Angel and Battaash – but the early signs are that the Classic generation in Britain and Ireland

is up to scratch.

Latrobe (Camelot) will have to improve further to be mentioned in the same breath as those above, but he has come a long way in a short time and ran to 119 when taking a steadily-run Irish Derby at The Curragh by half a length and a neck from Rostropovich and Saxon Warrior, who both ran to 117.

Urban Fox (117), the daughter of Foxwedge, struck a blow for the four-year-olds when defeating a quartet of younger fillies (including the Oaks winner Forever Together) in the Pretty Polly Stakes the following day at The Curragh.

Third-placed Athena (Camelot) went on to win the Belmont Oaks in the US just six days later with a 112 performance.

In France, the Group 1 Grand Prix de Saint-Cloud went to Waldgeist (122) by a nose from the filly Coronet (119), the Prix Jean Prat (G1) at Deauville went to Intellogent (119) by a short neck from Cascadian (118), and the Group 1 Grand Prix de Paris at Longchamp went to the Irish raider Kew Gardens (118) from Neufbosc (116).

Intellogent’s victory may have owed something to a notably strong pace, but also reflects well

on the Prix du Jockey-Club, in which he was fourth the time before to 118-rated Study of Man. The sixth in the Jockey-Club, Hunting Horn, went on to win well at Royal Ascot but seemed a bit below his best in third behind Catholic Boy (More Than Ready) (rated 116) in the Belmont Derby soon after.

Elsewhere on that Belmont card, Mendelssohn managed only third to Firenze Fire (Poseidon’s Warrior) (rated 124) in the Dwyer Stakes. Timeform has now pulled down the former to 123, based on his extraordinary victory in the UAE Derby at Meydan in March.

The GROUP 2 Coventry Stakes winner Calyx (Kingman) is the generational leader among two-year-olds in Europe rated 118 (including a 5lb boost for the manner of his victory) by Timeform.

But there is a school of thought that the Coventry runner-up Advertise (Showcasing) would have made things more difficult for him had he not raced on the other side of the course.

Advertise went one better when beating Konchek (Lethal Force) readily by 2l in the July Stakes at Newmarket, but remains on 110 (albeit with a “p” to indicate likely improvement) with Timeform.

The July Stakes was run in a good relative time, but the Duchess Of Cambridge Stakes (formerly the Cherry Hinton) the following day was 0.12s –

www.internationalthoroughbred.net

or about three quarters of a length – quicker still.

That should be borne in mind when weighing up the unexpected 7l win of Pretty Pollyanna (Oasis Dream) in the latter.

Several behind the Michael Bell-trained filly failed to fire and/or were hampered, but Timeform’s 111 assessment looks justified at this stage.

Another two-year-old to record a smart time and Timeform rating at the Newmarket July Meeting was Quorto (Dubawi), winner of the Superlative Stakes (G2) by nearly4l from Cape Of Good Hope (Galileo).

That earned the Godolphin colt a 112 rating, putting him top of those juveniles to have run at further than 6f.

brexit summary

Adam Potts has bravely (and from a non-political standpoint) attempted to summarise Brexit and give an us idea of its effects on the bloodstock world.

We hope his piece will provide you with a helpful overview and a timeline for Brexit, but as the politics surrounding the UK’s departure from Europe are changing rapidly and the whole process so muddled, Adam’s article could well be superseded by events by the time you read it...

Brexit and bloodstock J

ust before day two of the Tattersalls Ireland Derby Sale in 2016, Britain voted 52-48 to leave the European Union.

Store horses purchased on day one were suddenly a whole lot more expensive for British buyers, given that the pound was to fall over 10 per cent against the dollar and over seven per cent against the euro later that day — its biggest one-day loss in history. In total, £120 billion was wiped off the FTSE 100, its biggest one-day loss since the financial crisis the decade previously.

Mr Market gave the Leave vote a big thumbs down.

That being said, there was a certain amount of sympathy with a Leave voter’s desire to disentangle themselves from rulers too distant in the power hierarchy to adequately serve them at a local level.

As is the case with any organisation, when it becomes too big, it becomes harder to have an affinity with it — causing rise for a “back to the nation” standpoint.

In fact, one could argue that the EU is not even operating as a union, but as several different alliances.

We’re seeing that the EU being “too big to fail” is not so, and it may be at a scale so big that it is bound to fail.

But, given that Britain is in a period of stagnating real wage growth (wage growth adjusted for inflation — a general increase in

prices), the weakest of any G7 nation over the past decade, the timing of such a drastic move is open to doubt.

The vote was of such high importance because it was a fundamental change to the constitutional arrangements of Britain.

Yet, if a country is to be judged by its google searches, it seems many British voters began to think seriously and question Brexit only after the polls had closed.

The second-most searched EU-based question on results day was: “What is the EU?”, and as the cabinet currently debates the Brexit plan, searches for Love Island are currently ten times higher than that for Brexit.

This was the vote of the undefined for the uninformed, and evidently, much of the population are now plainly uninterested.

However, the thoroughbred industry can not be uninterested.

First, on a broad level, economic performance is the primary influence on racehorse ownership.

The weakened sterling has meant euro purchases are more expensive for those trading in sterling. Talks are slow, and the longer the uncertainty overhangs, the less confidence firms will have, adversely affecting their operations, which could further weaken the sterling.

Should this occur, sterling buyers could decrease buying activity abroad. The weakened sterling has already led to a decline in Irish stud fees to maintain competitiveness for English breeders.

On the other hand, European buyers may wish to capitalise on the strengthening of the euro, but this can only occur should the continuation of the free movement of thoroughbreds between Britain, Ireland and France still exist.

Lengthy border veterinary checks would deter travel and would be most inefficient for both the racing and breeding industry. There are around 26,000 thoroughbred movements between Britain, Ireland and France each year.

Nearly all of Ireland-France journeys are

made via Britain, with the Ireland-France direct route taking almost a day to complete.

Greater checks would deter French broodmares from visiting Irish stallions, and vice-versa. Thankfully, it seems progress is being made in discussions with the European Commission, and it is expected that the tripartite agreement of free movement between these three countries (which was formed before the formation of the European Union), can continue during the transition.

As this can not be a permanent solution, it is important going forward that the aim of creating a new “high health horse” category for thoroughbreds is achieved when a new EU legal framework for animal health takes effect in April 2021.

The introduction of a 30-day foal notification to Weatherbys improves traceability from the very beginning of a horse’s life, and can only strengthen the case for implementing such a new category

Gains from trade allow for wealth creation, stemming from economic network chains.

No access to the single market will shorten these network chains, and in theory, limit a company’s ability to maximise profit.

Hard Brexiters will, however, argue that planning to keep the UK close to the single market will force the UK to give further concessions to Brussels at the negotiating stage, worsening the deal.

Either way, it is a form of de-globalisation, as any EU restrictions will unlikely be instantly compensated by countries operating on a similar trading scale. Recreational racehorse owners are, from a consumer perspective, owners of luxury goods.

heresa May’s early July meeting at Chequers, the Prime Minister’s country residence, suggested a new aim for a soft Brexit, backed (originally) by the cabinet, albeit with a fair degree of ambiguity.

The cabinet will push ahead for a “facilitated customs arrangement” compromise, which would allow Britain to operate its own trade policy but simultaneously seek to operate within a “combined customs territory”, wishing for harmony with EU rules on goods.

This, of course, has angered hard Brexiters, whose rebellion against May’s plan intensified with the resignations of David Davis and Boris Johnson.

The UK is a powerful country, but

populated with 60 million people; the EU has 500 million people.

Does Britain really, in the words of Michael Gove, “hold all the cards” and have strong claims of negotiating with the EU a “best of both worlds” situation?

The current speed of progress suggests not, and there is domestic turmoil to be sorted out before the country can be in a position to effectively negotiate.

Further, a hardened stance on immigration will affect the level of migrant workers. Given that British racing has a substantial number of workers from the European Economic Area

at aEEA) countries and non-EEA countries, leaving the EU could inflame the current staff shortage, especially as the Migration Advisory Committee no longer regards work riders and grooms as skilled workers.

Someone off the street cannot suddenly begin riding racehorses, and so this needs to be reversed. Riding and caring for racehorses requires a particular ability — a skill.

With the current divide, one must ask whether Brexit will even occur. Betting markets imply a 25 per cent chance that there will be another EU Referendum before 2020, with a 45 per cent chance that Britain does not leave the EU at its scheduled time of March 29, 2019.

Should this occur, the Brexit stoppers could have a strong case to put forward.

The demographics will have changed after nearly three years of fruitless negotiations, and it may then be time for us all to weigh up whether the best possible deal is worthwhile and vote again.

N

icolas de Chambure is a young man running one of Europe’s most important commercial stud farms, but he was younger still when he took over the reins of the family stud Haras d’étréham from his uncle Marc de Chambure in January 2011.

The same year he bought a stallion prospect and a filly out of training, both at very much the lower end of their respective markets. The pair, Wootton Bassett and Darkova, have proved to be hugely profitable investments, who have helped to give étréham a new boost and the opportunity to consolidate its position as a leader in the European and international market.

Nicolas is the fourth generation of his family to run the stud, which was bought by his great-grandfather Hubert de Chambure at the end of the 1940s. étréham is in the Bessin region of Normandy, close to the city of Bayeux and to the sea, only a few miles from Omaha Beach. Any visitor to the stud is struck by the beauty of the miles-long avenue, which zig-zags through pastures from the gates to the heart of the stud, and the Château with its proximity of the sea. It may be out of sight, but its scent and influence on the weather is always there.

His grandfather Roland de Chambure took over the farm at the beginning of the 1950s and made étréham a name in the international breeding world.

Roland de Chambure bred champions on his own and in partnership with Alec Head, and he stood champion stallions, notably Lyphard and Luthier. After his sudden death the dispersal of his partnership with Head, the Ecurie Aland, was of one the sales of the decade at Newmarket.

Roland de Chambure’s son Marc took over and during his time in charge the stud bred and sold as yearlings Urban Sea and King’s Best and, during what was a difficult time for French racing and breeding, étréham dominated the Deauville August Sale.

“I was only three years old when my grandfather Roland died in 1988,” explains Nicolas, “and so I have no direct memories of him. In 2010, Marc decided to take up a position with Arqana and so the family decided that I would take over from him running the stud.”

Nicolas de Chambure took over the management of Haras d’étréham in 2011 – that same year he bought Wootton Bassett and Darkova, the sire and dam of Almanzor

Back to the top Exciting times at Haras d’étréham with sires Wootton Bassett and his son Almanzor, who was well received by breeders this spring.

Jocelyn de Moubray chats with the farm’s young manager, Nicolas de Chambure

architect and Nicolas was raised in Paris.

“I spent my holidays at étréham,” he recalls. “And from the time I was a teenager I wanted to be involved and started to work on the stud. After going to a business school in Paris I went to Ireland to do the Irish National Stud course and to work for Goffs, and then on to Three Chimneys in Kentucky and a stint with David Hayes in Australia.”

In September 2011, Nicolas was looking to buy a stallion prospect for étréham at a reasonable level. Wootton Bassett was proposed to him and he went with British agent Ed Sackville to inspect the horse at Richard Fahey’s stable.

“In 2011, the French stallion market was still very subdued and I didn’t have a huge budget,” de Chambure remembers. “Wootton Bassett appealed to me as he was a champion two-year-old in France and I had loved his race in the Group 1 Prix Jean Luc Lagardère.

“His three-year-old career had not been a success, but that gave me the chance to acquire him. I liked him physically when I saw him in Yorkshire – he is a great walker and has presence.

“Ed [Sackville] played a big part in getting the deal done as the owners were of course very disappointed at how his value had reduced over the year.”

T

he deal, however, was done and étréham bought 75 per cent of the son of Iffraaj with the other 25 per cent being taken up by an investment fund run with Ghislain Bozo. étréham had a new stallion, a Group 1 winner from the first crop of a champion first-season sire in Iffraaj. Yet for the next few years things did not at all follow the plan.

“The original idea was that we would be able to pay for some of the purchase by selling shares in the horse,” says de Chambure.

“Unfortunately we succeeded in selling only one share – to Colin Bryce of Laundry Cottage Stud, the breeder of Wootton Bassett.

“I then made another youthful error in taking the horse to the December Sale in Deauville to show him to breeders. He did not look great having just come out of training and I don’t think we did anything other than put people off him.”

In his first two seasons Wootton Bassett covered only 20 mares, most of whom

haras d’étréham belonged to étréham.

In 2011, de Chambure decided to buy around ten mares to support Wootton Bassett. Darkova was one of his purchases costing €16,000. She was an unraced three-year-old daughter of Maria’s Mon offered by the Aga Khan Studs.

“I thought she would suit Wootton Bassett,” he says. “She is a well-balanced mare, not too big or too small, she comes from a good Aga Khan family and her dam is a half-sister to the dam of the champion Darjina, a daughter of Zamindar.

“Wootton Bassett is a grandson of Zafonic, Zamindar’s half-brother, and so mating him with Darkova set up a similar cross.”

This was another one of Nicolas’s ideas, which took a bit of time to come to fruition.

“Almanzor was not a good foal,” he laughs.

“We had several better Wootton Bassett foals on the farm, and he had a few issues when he was young.

“He started to improve when he had been weaned and then during his spring as a yearling he was transformed. By the time

Nicolas de Chambure

haras d’étréham August came he was a very good-looking yearling and was bought by Jean Claude Rouget for €100,000.”

By this time things had already started to brighten up for Wootton Bassett. His first foals were a big success at the 2013 Deauville December Sale averaging nearly ten times his initial fee of €6,000.

As a result Wootton Bassett covered 50 mares in 2014 and 2015, producing the three-year-olds and two-year-olds of 2018.

Almanzor then changed everything. Under Rouget’s care and carrying the colours of Antonio Caro he dominated the 2016 Flat season winning Group 1s in France, Ireland and England and ending the year as Europe’s champion three-year-old with an official rating of 129.

“After Almanzor had won the Irish Champion Stakes we decided to buy back into the horse,” de Chambure remembers. “Plenty of people wanted to buy him as a stallion, but we thought it would be a shame to retire such a champion as a three-year-old and so we bought 50 per cent of the horse with our

“Wootton Bassett and Almanzor have certainly made things easier.

It has been a great thrill and incentive for all of the team on the stud partners with a view to racing him at four and trying to win the Arc de Triomphe with him.”

The same autumn Wootton Bassett was finally fully syndicated. étréham retained 45 per cent of the horse and the new shareholders included leading breeders from all over the world. The stallion has been fully booked ever since covering 130 mares in 2017 and 2018 at €20,000.

Unfortunately, Almanzor’s racing career

“It will take a generation to change the way racing is viewed and appreciated in France, but we have many advantages here was brought to premature end after he was one of those who caught the virus in Rouget’s stable at the beginning of 2017.

His new part-owners had had the joy of watching him win the Champion Stakes (G1) at Ascot before having to endure such an unexpected disappointment. The horse did recover and he saw 140 mares during his first season at stud at étreham.

This year Almanzor travels to Cambridge Stud in New Zealand for the southern-hemisphere season.

D

arkova has a two-year-old full-brother to Almanzor called Rey Pelayo, who was retained by étréham and is in training with Fabrice Chappet.

“His trainer likes him,” de Chambure adds, “and he should make his debut this autumn, if everything goes to plan.”

Darkova was sold privately to George Strawbridge in-foal to Le Havre in 2016. She is still based at étréham and has a yearling colt by Le Havre, a foal full-brother to Almanzor and is in-foal to Frankel.

Success creates momentum in any business and this is particularly true in the bloodstock world where recent victories change the value of everything.

“Wootton Bassett and Almanzor have certainly made things easier,” smiles de Chambure. “It has been a great thrill and incentive for all of the team on the stud, and it has made it easier to find partners and opportunities outside.

“People want to be part of, or partners with, an operation which is investing and building for the future.”

In a world where finding the right staff can be very difficult étréham has the advantage of an experienced team.

Selling yearlings is still an important part of étreham’s business plan and the farm has 23 entered in the Deauville August Sale and another five in the V2 section.

However, the yearling sales are not quite as important to the business as they used to be.

“The yearling market is very selective and not every yearling with potential is suited to the market,” de Chambure explains. “We keep more fillies to race these days and own, together with different partners, shares in some 25 horses in training in France and some others in England, Australia and the US. “There is a strong market for horses in training and it makes sense to try to give value on the racecourse to some we bred.”

round 90 mares are based at étréham of whom the stud owns about half.

“We are always trying to upgrade our broodmare band,” adds de Chambure. “For the future we would like to reduce the number of boarding mares and take on mares in which we have a share ourselves.” étréham is also a leading jumping farm and stands one of the best jumping sires in Europe in Saint Des Saints, as well as the younger NH sires Masked Marvel and Kamsin.

“We are planning,” he explains, “to develop both the Flat and jumping sides of the business in the future. It is possible that we may create a different structure for each part, but for the time being we are just thinking about the best way forward.”

The French breeding and sales markets have been transformed over the years since Nicolas de Chambure took the helm at étréham. The French stallion market is far more competitive than it was – Wootton Bassett is just one of several proven international sires and Almanzor one of a handful at of high class new sires in France.

“There is more competition,” de Chambure reasons, “but the market is bigger too.

I am optimistic for the future of racing and breeding in France. There remains a lot to be done and France Galop still has a great many things to achieve, but it would be unrealistic to think it is possible to transform something so complex in just a few years.

“It will take a generation to change the way racing is viewed and appreciated in France, but we have many advantages. My life would have been a lot more complicated if the family stud had been in Italy!”

GREAT expectations

Haie Neuve’s new owner Tangi Saliou talks about the fresh challenges ahead and the farm’s exciting young stallion,

T

angi Saliou is a well known figure at the Deauville sales.

For eight years Saliou was director at Haras de Montaigu and during those years he was responsible for the preparation and sale of the yearlings presented by Aliette Forien’s stud.

Those August Sale consignments included a Galileo filly, who made €1 million in 2014, the Derby winner Wings Of Eagles, who sold for €220,000 in 2015, as well as the Galileo colt Magneticjim, who is now part of his life every day – at beginning the year, Saliou became the owner and director of the Haras de la Haie Neuve.

At Arqana this August he will be standing outside his own boxes rather than those of Montaigu as the Haie Neuve will offer six yearlings in the V2 sale.

In front of his own boxes, but not yet his own yearlings.

“Alain Régnier and his wife Anne-Marie set up the Haie Neuve about 25 years ago,” explains Saliou. “They wanted to hand on the daily responsibility for the stud although they will continue to invest and be involved. I am

Exciting times for Tangi Saliou, who has moved from Haras de Montaigu to Haie Neuve

now the owner of the stud; I rent the land and have taken a 50 per cent share in the mares and the foals.

“Part of the deal was that this year I will sell the Régnier’s yearlings – we have six for the V2 at Arqana in August, 15 for the Osarus Sale in September and 15 for Arqana’s October Sale. We prepare and consign other people’s yearlings as well as the stud’s own and in total the Haie Neuve will offer nearly 50 yearlings this year.”

Régnier moved from farming to thoroughbred breeding in the early 1990s setting up the Haie Neuve on the eastern edge of Brittany at Mondervert, which is mid-way between Laval and Rennes and about a three-hour drive south-west of Deauville.

The Haie Neuve soon established a reputation for selling sound, tough racehorses; the farm’s own horses are mostly named using Bere, an amalgamation of the names of Régnier and his wife.

The recent Group winners bred and sold by the Haie Neuve include Fatale Bere and Flamboyant, both winners of Graded races in California this year, Vizir Bere, as well as many other stakes horses such as Hurricane,

haras de la haie neuve

According to Saliou, Pedro The Great “is a strongly built horse – he is made like a bull and many of his progeny look like him”

Feralia and Francisco Bere.

The stud has also had great success with its stallions. Verglas stood a few seasons at the Haie Neuve and it was there that his Group 1 winner Stormy River was conceived before the son of Highest Honor was sold to the Irish National Stud.

Other successes have included Hurricane Cat, Peer Gynt and now Pedro The Great, whose first crop made a big mark in 2017.

“Pedro The Great,” continues Saliou, “belongs to a syndicate headed by Alain and his partners, while Coolmore has retained some shares in the horse as well.

“He is a small, 1.61 metres or just under 16h, but is a strongly built horse – he is made like a bull and many of his progeny look like

“Pedro The Great has been very popular this covering season.

He ended up covering 137 mares at €6,000 him. They tend to be strong and precocious and for the time being there have all been either bay or grey.”

A leading 2017 first-season sire in France,

the son of Henrythenavigator had 13 two-year-old winners in France from only 26 runners, including the useful stakes performers, Feralia, Fatale Bere and Bonita Fransisco.

By the end of June this year he had already had several winners from his second crop, including the stakes performer Sens Du Rythme.

“Pedro The Great has been very popular this covering season,” Saliou says. “He ended up covering 137 mares at €6,000. He has been a success because in his first year he was well supported by Alain and the Haie Neuve.

“Now there are plenty of people who like Pedro The Great – Jean Claude Rouget likes him, André Fabre likes the two-year-old filly

Haie Neuve had two new stallions for the 2018 season – Whitecliffsofdover, a son of War Front and a close relation of Pulpit, and the jumping sire Magneticjim, a Galileo half-

“It was a busy first covering season as between the three we covered 350 mares this year,” reports Saliou. “The stud has about 50 mares and the stallions have always been selected for how they will cross with the stud’s mares, physically and also of course by bloodlines too.

“Most of our mares will go first to one of our sires and then to another one the year after. We offer all of the progeny we can for sale, but are happy to buy some of the fillies back later – we have just bought the sister to Feralia, a stakes-winning filly from Pedro The Great’s first crop.”

Saliou is very happy to be back in Brittany as he grew up in Morbihan, and it is where he started out his career with horses.

“I worked for ten years for the Haras Nationaux and was based close to here. We are very well situated, close to the motorway and only a few hours’ drive of the heart of the Normandy breeding area. We are surrounded by some of the best dairy farms in France,

“We are surrounded by some of the best dairy farms in France, which is a sure sign of how good the land is here which is a sure sign of how good the land is here,” he smiles.

“There are plenty of local clients and at the same time it is easy to send mares here from Normandy or further afield.”

He is well aware that the Haie Neuve is a great opportunity for him.

“The Régniers have done a great job here,” he says, “and it is a far easier to take over something as successful as this stud than to start out with a completely new structure.”

An obvious question then to ask is has he changed anything since taking over?

“Not a great deal,” he laughs. “Perhaps things are just a little less rustic. For the essentials nothing has changed and our horses spend as much time as possible outside together in groups.

“Life in a herd is very important for the development of young horses. And we have the same staff, including Sarah Le Helloco who was France Galop’s stud worker of the year in 2017.”

Haras de la Haie Neuve was bought and designed by Alain Régnier and his wife Anne-Marie about 25 years ago.

Saliou, who has bought into the broodmare band, reports that “they did a great job”

Philippe Decouz is enjoying training for World Cup star French footballer Antoine Griezmann

Trainer Philippe Decouz (left) with owner Antoine Griezmann (centre), who managed to get some time at the races ahead of the World Cup campaign

A

meeting last September set up through a mutual friend gave Philippe Decouz the opportunity all young trainers dream of, writes Jocelyn de Moubray.

For the first time he had been put in touch with a potential client who wanted to buy some horses and was prepared to invest some money looking for quality.

Decouz was in the middle of his sixth season training and was enjoying his best season to date. He ended 2017 with 19 wins, a total which he has gradually built up since starting off with eight winners in 2012.

At the end of 2011, Decouz started out as a trainer with two horses in his care at France Galop’s newly opened training centre at Chazey-sur-Ain, which is about 20 minutes

drive from Lyon’s Saint Exupery airport and TGV station. He won stakes races and twice came close to winning a Group race.

In 2014, Imperiator was beaten two short heads when third behind Charm Spirit in the Group 3 Prix Djebel and the following year Do Re Mi Fa Sol finished third in the Group 2 Prix de Malleret, closing fast but still a short head and a head behind at the line.

Decouz had bought Imperiator as a

Do Re Mi Fa Sol, a filly from the first crop of Wootton Bassett, was not sold at Deauville’s October Sale and went into training with Decouz for her breeder Nicolas de Lageneste and Imperiator’s owner Arnaud de Seyssel.

“Theo compared Hooking’s win to watching his brother score two goals in the Europa Cup Final in Lyon a few weeks earlier!

L

yon is the second biggest urban area in France and among the ten largest urban centres in Europe.

It has two racecourses, a new All-Weather track and Lyon Parilly, which has one of the best Turf courses in the country outside Paris.

And yet in racing terms it is something of a backwater.

The new training centre has round tracks, straight tracks, Turf and All-Weather tracks, everything a trainer could wish for, and yet since opening it has struggled to attract high-class horses.

Decouz is one of the few who went there with enthusiasm, the older Lyon trainers had been happy training on the racetrack, and he is now doing his best to put Lyon on the racing map.

The man Decouz met last September was Alain Griezmann, his son Antoine is one the stars of world football – he is a striker for Atletico Madrid and scored a penalty in France’s World Cup-winning final.

The footballer had decided he would like to have a racehorse and so his father came to met Decouz.

“The Griezmann family live at Macon about three-quarters of an hour’s drive from here,” reports Decouz.

“Alain, the father, has always liked racing and when his boys were young he used to take them to Cluny the local racecourse.

“He liked Antoine’s idea. Football at Griezmann’s level is a very stressful business and Alain believed that having a racehorse would help his

son step out of the pressure cooker of football from time to time and have a chance to think about something else.”

The best horse in Decouz’s stable then was Tornibush, a three-year-old who had won at Vichy during the summer and had gone on to be placed in two good races in Deauville and Saint-Cloud.

Tornibush was due to go the Arc de Triomphe Sale, but instead he stayed in the stable and has run four times since for a partnership between Griezmann and his previous owner de Seyssel, winning his last three starts in Griezmann’s colours at Marseilles, Lyon and Maisons-Laffitte.

At the Arqana October Yearling Sale

last year Decouz bought three yearlings on behalf of Griezmann: a Lope De Vega colt and fillies by Siyouni and Mastercraftsman for a total of €227,000.

Move forward eight months to June this year and remarkably two of three have already run and won – and both the Lope De Vega colt Hooking and the Siyouni filly Princesa look to be well above average.

By the end of June, Griezmann had run three horses seven times for five wins and a second place. It is perhaps what is called a “flying start”.

The two-year-olds broke their maiden in consecutive races at Lyon Parilly at an evening meeting on June 10.

“Antoine was already in Russia with the French team and his father had a previous football commitment too,” said Decouz.

“However, Antoine wanted a member of his family to be there so he persuaded his brother Theo to come.

“Theo got stuck in traffic and so missed seeing Princesa win on her second start, but he was there in time to see Hooking’s winning debut and he was very excited. Theo compared the moment of Hooking’s win to watching his brother score two goals in the Europa Cup Final in Lyon a few weeks earlier!”

philippe decouz is clearly an opportunity for Decouz and one which has already allowed him to keep Tornibush in the yard and select and develop two very promising well bred, two-year-olds.

It is also, of course, there is a responsibility, to his new client, while the nature of his new client brings a wider responsibility again.

There are very few footballers in the world with a higher profile than Griezmann and although football’s heroes have long been popular figures in the modern world they have an influence which is greater than ever.

Griezmann himself came to the races in Lyon to watch Princesa finish a promising third on her debut. He took some photos which he put on his Instagram account followed by 19.4 million people. The photos of Princesa have been liked by a million people.

“We used to go to Longchamp and Maisons-Laffitte and my heroes at the time were the jockeys, Cash Asmussen and Dominique Boeuf Griezmann is also present on Twitter – just the 5.7 million followers – and Facebook, where he has 7.4 million followers. Whatever happens to Antoine Griezmann there are a lot of people watching.

Alain Griezmann

ecouz decided early on in life that he wanted to be part of the racing world, but it took him some time to realise that he wanted to be a trainer.

He grew up in Paris and his family had no racing connection except that his grandfather lived near Aix les Bains, a spa town close to the Alps between Lyon and Chamonix, and one of his cousins was a steward at the racecourse which has several meetings during the summer months.

Decouz spent his summer holidays at Aix les Bains and remembers vividly the first time he went to the races aged ten.

“I was transfixed immediately,” he remembers. “The speed, the colours, the sounds, the whole atmosphere made a strong impression on me and from that day on I wanted my father to take me to the races.

“We used to go to Longchamp and Maisons-Laffitte and my heroes were Cash Asmussen and Dominique Boeuf. Later on my Lycee was close to Saint-Cloud and I used to spend my Wednesday on the racecourse rather than in class!”

philippe decouz His first direct involvement in racing came when working as an unpaid assistant to the stewards at Aix Les Bains.

“I thought that perhaps that was the best way into a world I didn’t really know,” he explains.

While studying law and economics in Alsace and Chambery he did some work experience with Richard Kent in England and at the Haras de Saint Voir and once his academic career was finished he spent a summer working at Arqana.

The next step was to send a year as an intern at the Haras de Maulepaire.

“I was the last one to be an intern there in the old fashioned way; my predecessors included Sir Henry Cecil, François Boutin, Alain de Royer Dupre and many others.

“I was fed and housed and every day I had lunch with the Comte and Comtesse Bertrand de Tarragon and whoever else had been invited. I was there for foaling and walking the yearlings and then in the afternoons I rode and helped with the breaking-in and pre-training, which also took place on the farm.”

His next step was to spend some

“Alain Griezmann knows that horses are difficult.

Antoine likes to win, but at the same time he knows how to lose time working for the trainer Dominique Sepulchre, who at the time had horses for the Wildenstein and Niarchos families.

“I wish I had spent more time there,” Decouz says. “Sepulchure is a very interesting man. He may have trained in an old fashioned way, but he was excellent at looking after his horses.

“There was no fat on his horses, only lean, but then I think our horses often end up reflecting our characters.

“I often tell my team that if you love what you are doing then the horses will enjoy it too.

It was when I was there that I first started thinking about training.”

Princesa (Siyouni) won her second career start. She was an €80,000 Arqana October Sale yearling

There was still a fair way to go before he was ready to make the jump. He spent some time working for what is now Markel Insurance in Normandy before moving on to France Galop where he spent six years working for François Boulard, who is in charge of the programme for racing in France.

“I loved my time at France Galop,” recalls Decouz. “I travelled a great deal, met trainers all over the country and the programme is at the centre of what we are doing.”

He decided then that he would set up as a trainer at Chazey-sur-Ain when the new training centre opened.

T

he final part of his long apprenticeship came working as an assistant to Stephane Wattel in Deauville for a year and a half before finding himself in charge of two horses at Chazey in November 2011.

In March the following year he won his first race at Saint Galmier with a horse who came with him from Wattel’s stable called Air De Danse, and then soon afterwards he won his first race at Aix Les Bains with Magic Roundabout, who won a claimer at 100-1.

For the immediate future things are looking good for the Decouz stable. He has moved into one of the biggest barns on the site and there are now 40 horses and 20 two-year-olds in the stable.

While he is not getting carried away Decouz has high hopes for Griezmann’s three winners.

“Tornibush will get the chance to prove himself in stakes and Group races now,” he reasons, “and Princesa and Hooking are both horses I like very much. I have never worked them together and we are looking to buy a lead horse to ensure I won’t ever have to do so.”

Has everything gone too smoothly for his new and famous owner?

“Alain Griezmann knows that horses are difficult,” he replies to the obvious question in the circumstances. “Antoine likes to win, but at the same time he knows how to lose.

He comes to the stable when he is staying with his father, on his own or with his wife or daughter, and I am sure he loves his horses.

In any event he sees them very well.

“He is an observer and notices all sorts of small details. I think he sees races well too.

This is why he is doing this.

“He invests his time because he enjoys it and because he wants to win and win good races.”

french sires

Going from strength to strength

Continued improvements in the quality of stallion standing in France, writes Jocelyn de Moubray

T

here are few certainties in thoroughbred breeding, but the one thing everybody in the European bloodstock world would agree is that the standard of stallions based in France has improved beyond all recognition over the last five years.

Siyouni, Le Havre, Wootton Bassett and Kendargent have all become well known international sires, something that would have seemed unlikely when they first retired.

The leading second-season sires who have stood or who are standing in France include Intello, Dabirsim, Pedro The Great and Reliable Man, and the first-season sires in the same bracket include Olympic Glory, Toronado, Anodin and Charm Spirit who were all represented by winners before the end of June.

There are, of course, many other good stallions in France – Motivator, Manduro, Authorized, Style Vendome, Dream Ahead, Evasive, Rajsaman, Myboycharlie, as well as

78

www.internationalthoroughbred.net

those who are yet to have runners – Shalaa, Zelzal, Al Wukair, Zarak, Hunter’s Light and many others.

These statistics are an attempt to look more closely at the record of a selection of those who have already exceeded expectations.

Siyouni: already amongst the elite

The four French sires, now more or less established, started out as relatively cheap sires. As a result their records have fluctuated, and it is not easy to know exactly where they are in the inevitable cycle stallions go through before becoming fully established.

The most expensive of the four was Siyouni, who retired to the Haras de Bonneval at €7,000 in 2011 and who was the only one who was syndicated from the beginning.

Those clever enough to have bought shares in Siyouni in 2010 have made spectacular profits as the initial cost was about a third of his current fee of €75,000.

Siyouni

The shareholders ensured Siyouni received solid support through his first four seasons, averaging 75 foals a crop, and many succeeded in breeding high-class horses – most of the good Siyouni’s so far were bred by French breeders and many from families who had not been regular Group producers.

The Aga Khan bred Ervedya, and Chris Wright’s Stratford Place Stud produced Souvenir Delondres from Siyouni’s first crop, but many of his other high-class performers have far outperformed their immediate family’s representatives.

Siyouni has had four crops of three-yearolds to race – a total of 301 foals of whom 3.7 per cent are already rated 110 or higher and 15 per cent 95 or higher.

The figures already put Siyouni into Europe’s elite stallions – amongst sires of his type the only ones to return these sort of figures consistently are his own sire Pivotal, Invincible Spirit and Shamardal.

And, of course, Siyouni achieved this

while standing in France at €7,000. He has had at least two Group 1 performers from each of his four crops of three-year-olds and produced two Classic-winning fillies, Ervedya and Laurens, while Le Brivido came close to winning the Poule d’Essai des Poulices (G1).

Most of his progeny are sprinter/milers, but, as Laurens and Barkaa have shown this year, with the right mare, he can get horses who stay at least 1m2f. His progeny appear to be at ease on all types of ground and from only a handful of runners he has had Group and Graded winners in Australia and the US. Siyouni’s first crop of more expensive horses are his 118 two-year-olds produced from a €20,000 fee. Before the end of June they included several winners headed by Antoine Griezmann’s Princesa and the Jean Pierre Dubois-owned Soony.

It is possible Siyouni will get even better results in the future with the support of all of Europe’s best breeders, but even if he just maintains his current standard he will still be the best stallion to have stood in France since Nureyev left in the early 1980s.

Sichilla, the dam of Siyouni, was a yearling

Those clever enough to have bought shares in Siyouni in 2010 have made spectacular profits when breeder Jean-Luc Lagardère died and she was bought by the Aga Khan together with the rest of Lagardère’s bloodstock.

Her dam the Conquistador Cielo mare Slipstream Queen was one of several Mr. Prospector line mares Lagardère bought to go to his stallion Linamix.

Sichilla has had five named foals of racing age who include two Group 1 winners, Siyouni and Siyouma, and two Listed winners – Siyenica and Sayana.

Wootton Bassett: biggest crops to come Siyouni was a popular sire from the

Siyouni (2007, Pivotal-Sichilla (Danehill))

beginning, but few breeders believed in Wootton Bassett when he retired to the Haras d’Etreham in 2012 and the son of Iffraaj had only 17 foals in each of his first two crops.

His third crop are three-year-olds of this year, and is bigger as his first foals had been well received at the Arqana December Sale in 2013.

In total, Wootton Bassett has 77 three-year-olds to date of whom 15 per cent are rated 95 or higher and three (3.9 per cent) rated 110 or higher – the European Champion and multiple Group 1 winner Almanzor together with this year’s Group 1-placed three-year-olds, Patascoy and Wootton.

Again it is a remarkable success for a horse who attracted little support and stood at €6,000, €5,000 and then €4,000 in his first three years at stud.

Wootton Bassett himself was bred by Colin Bryce of Laundry Cottage Stud and was an unbeaten Group 1 winner at two, but failed to win in four starts at three.

At two he won the big sales races at York in August and Doncaster in September and then the 7f Group 1 Prix Jean Luc Lagardère,

but he didn’t beat any high profile horses and Etreham was able to purchase him at a bargain price as a stallion.

Wootton Bassett also has a strong female family as his dam produced ten winners, five of whom were rated 95 or higher, while his third dam Gliding By is a half-sister to the US champions Fort Marcy and Key To The Mint, who was bred and raced by Paul Mellon.

Wootton Bassett has produced plenty of two-year-old winners, but it was clear from his first crop that he could also produce high-class winners over 1m2f or further.

He was resyndicated in 2016 and stood at €20,000 in 2016 and 2017.

Shares in Wootton Bassett have been trading at around three times what they cost in 2016 and he is likely to be standing at a high fee in future.

french sires Group and Listed performers.

By the time his first crop was four Le Havre was standing at €20,000 and attracting mares from all over Europe, however in the intervening years he stood at just €5,000 for three years and a year at €7,000 to produce this year’s three-year-olds.

Le Havre attracted mares, but aside from his owner Gerard Augustin Normand, Sylvain Vidal and his management team, there were not many initial believers among France’s bloodstock professionals.

These four crops have not matched the results of his first one, but they included another Classic-winning filly in La Cressonniere, while this year’s three-yearolds include the promising Listed-winning fillies Mascha and Victorine.

Le Havre was also resyndicated and has received support from top European breeders over recent seasons.

The son of Noverre is clearly an above average sire, but just how good he is will become clear over the next couple of seasons as he has 140 two-year-olds from a €20,000 fee and 118 yearlings from a €35,000 fee.

Kendargent: “remarkably consistent”

Kendargent was first of the new French sires to achieve an international reputation when Restiadargent, a filly from his first crop of 19 foals, came within a head and a neck of beating Black Caviar and Moonlight Cloud Jimmy Two Times

Often results depend on the mare band

Before moving on to the second-season sires who have stood in France a quick diversion proves that any stallion is, more or less, only as good as the opportunities he is given.

Pedro: strong sire of two-year-olds in the Group 1 Diamond Jubilee at Royal Ascot in 2012.

Few bloodstock professionals had even heard of Kendargent before his progeny started to run and during his first five years at stud the son of Kendor had few supporters other than his owner Guy Pariente at whose Haras de Colleville he stands.

If you look at his results he has been a remarkably consistent producer over a long enough period to convince that there is no aspect of fluke about his success or a small sample size skewing his results.

Kendargent produces a lot of winners – by the end of June he had 35 three-year-old winners of 52 races putting him among the most prolific winner producers in Europe, and he has produced a high proportion of good ones.

He has yet to produce a Group 1 winner, but then how many sires do so when standing at a €1,000?

His latest top-class performer is the five-year-old Group 2 winner Jimmy Two Times, but he has several promising looking three-year-olds in France, England and Germany who could yet go on and win Group races – horses such as Ken Colt, Batwan, Cheshmeh, Mystic Flight and George Of Hearts.

Kendargent has 117 two-year-olds and 109 yearlings from a €18,000 fee and so will have plenty more opportunities to impress over the coming years.

Of the four prominent second-season sires who have stood in France only the Haras de la Haie Neuve’s Pedro The Great has been there for five years.

Pedro The Great won the Group 1 Phoenix Stakes in 2012 for Aidan O’Brien, but didn’t run at three and as a son of Henrythenavigator would have struggled to find a place a stud in England or Ireland.

His first crop includes several useful horses headed by the Graded stakes winner Fatale Bere and Bonita Fransisca, third to Polydream and Laurens in the Group 3 Prix Calvados at two, both now in the US. Pedro The Great had three two-year-old winners in 2018 before the end of June, including the Listed-placed Sens Du Rythme.

His other two-year-olds include the André Fabre-trained Vela, who finished a promising fourth on his debut at Saint-Cloud at the end of May.

Intello: high winners-to-runners ratio

All of Intello’s runners to date were conceived at Cheveley Park Stud, but the son of Galileo stood at the Haras du Quesnay in 2016 and 2017 and received plenty of support from French-based breeders, even when he was in England.

Few of Intello’s first crop were precocious, but this year he has shown the potential to become a top sire, even if Young Rascal failed to show his form in the Derby.

He got his first Group 1 winner when Intellogent won the Group 1 Prix Jean Prat, while Louis D’Or came within a length of winning the Prix du Jockey-Club (G1).

Native American and Korvesky are two other very useful colts over a 1m2f and a mile.

Intello has a high winners-to-runners ratio and, with several lightly raced promising three-year-olds likely to become stakes performers in the future, his progeny will be popular at this year’s sales.

Dabirsim: influence for speed and precocity Dabirsim’s 2017 yearlings averaged more than €100,000 and although the son of Hat Trick has continued to be successful it

is unlikely that his first French conceived yearlings will sell quite as well in 2018.

Dabirsim stood his first two seasons at Gestüt Karlshof in Germany before moving to the Haras de Grandcamp in 2016.

His first crop quickly made a mark and included the Group-winning, Group 1-performing fillies Different League and Coeur de Beaute.

His best colt, and the best German-bred from his first crop, is Not Mine who was exported to Hong Kong after finishing fifth in the Jockey-Club.

Dabirsim had 11 two-year-olds who won first time out in 2017, however, some of these have not gone on to achieve what they promised at the beginning of their careers. By the end of June, Dabirsim had two two-yearold winners from his second crop, including Pizzicato, unbeaten in two starts.

Dabirsim stood at €30,000 in 2018 and

french sires in all probability received better or more suitable mares since returning to France in 2016.

He is clearly a way above-average stallion who gives speed and produces precocious horses, but where exactly is his true level will become clear over the next couple of years.

Reliable Man: moved stud for 2018

Reliable Man was the leading first-season sire in Germany in 2017 when he achieved the rare feat of siring two Group winners, in a country where there are only four juvenile Group races.

The son of Dalakhani moved to the Haras du Thenney for the 2018 season where he was very popular at €7,000 and his 2019 crop will be by far his biggest to date.

This year things have not gone so smoothly as his colt Erasmus injured himself early on and is out for the year, while his other Group winner Narella, now trained by Roger Varian for Teruya Yoshida, also missed the first half

who was a good winner at Newmarket at the end of June.

Like Dabirsim, Reliable Man is a betterthan-average stallion and he too will find his true level over the next couple of seasons.

Like Dabirsim, Reliable Man is a better-than-average stallion and he too will find his true level over the next couple of seasons

Anodin: has got off to a flyer

of the year due to physical problems.

Aside from the two Group winners most of Reliable Man’s progeny have proved to be later maturing and, although he has had only five three-year-old winners from 25 runners, there are several who have shown promise from one or two runs, including Zuckerfee, Viva Gloria, Maria’s Legacy and others.

His only two-year-old runner in 2018 so far is the Michael Bell-trained Master Brewer,

The end of June is very early to make any sort of a judgment about first-season sires, particularly in France, and at this stage Charm Spirit, Olympic Glory, Toronado and Anodin have all shown enough for those involved to remain optimistic.

Of the four, Anodin has made a particularly good start as the Haras du Quesnay’s son of Anabaa didn’t win at two himself and yet he has already had Julius Lumbani, a good winner at Sandown, Insani, a winner at Deauville for Carlos FaffonParias, and the Christophe Ferland-trained Harmless, who is unbeaten in three starts and won the Listed Prix Roland de Chambure at the beginning of July.

anne clabeaux

Normandy has a fine artistic tradition and can boast residences of such wonderful names as Degas, Dufy, Monet and Boudin

Motion on canvass

Equine artist Anne Clabeaux is following in the footsteps of those great masters

What is your background?

have worked with and who has become a friend.

I like to go to the Parisian museums. My favourite is the Musée d’Orsay. I have a great interest in the Nabis group.

I am a French professional painter and colourist. My speciality is to depict motion and horses.

How did art start for you?

Why horses and equine? Did you have an interest in horses or animals?

Art began very early for me. One of my best holiday memories is the arrival of a great uncle, who worked as an architect: he used to drive us to the countryside with our pencils and colours. This was a revelation. Drawing and painting became then my favourite hobbies.

Painting horses was my own idea. I wanted to paint horses in motion, with my own style and I also wanted to pay tribute to the horse: I am fascinated by the power, nobility and beauty.

One of the reasons why we decided to settle in Normandy was the desire to have horses at home. I have been watching them from my window for 20 years now.

Where did you train? Who are your influences?

I studied and practiced at the School of Fine Arts of Versailles, near Paris. There, I had the chance to meet major painters, names such as Ambille Fauchère and Zacchi and this has influenced my work a lot.

At that time, I also met Eric Bari, who I

Artist Anna Clabeaux is inspired by the equine environment in Normandy

What do you enjoy most about painting horses?

I like every equestrian discipline and I paint all of them: show jumping, dressage,

anne clabeaux

Clabeaux’s work on oil: she paints all equine disciplines as well as scenes of daily life, but always returns to the horses

combined driving. Nevertheless, I may prefer the compositions with several horses at the same time, that’s why I like to paint scenes from racing or polo.

How would you describe your art?

I would describe my art as very colourful and alive.

What pictures have you been most proud of?

I am very proud of the collector’s stamp I made for the French Post, and also of the canvas chosen for the FEI World Equestrian Games.

What is your current work? What other work do you paint other than equestrian?

I digress sometimes: I paint some boats, cats

“I wanted to paint horses in motion, with my own style and I also wanted to pay tribute to the horse: I am fascinated by the power, nobility and beauty

or people… but after ten or so canvases, I always go back to the horses.

I like the vivid colours of my scenes of daily life, but they are not as strong and powerful as my work on horses. That’s a work on colour and contrasts essentially.

Where are you exhibiting at present?

I exhibit in France and abroad: in Luxemburg for example, in Saint Tropez in a few weeks.

I enter a lot of national horse competitions, in the racecourses, on the polo competitions. The season is beginning right now, everywhere.

How do you market your work – do you find that easy and do you have time if you are painting too?

I market my work with personal and group exhibitions, in galleries as well. The internet

anne clabeaux

Above and left, Clabeaux’s work on linen, below, her work chosen for a commemorative stamp – a proud achievement for the artist

is also very useful to show my work, but for me it is limited – I consider internet more like a showcase to open other doors.

To market and to produce at the same time is very difficult. You need a lot of energy!

Painting is, of course, essential but you can’t neglect communications. It has to be regular otherwise you can be forgotten very quickly. Contrary to popular opinion to be an artist is a lot of work.

Can you unite creativity with commercialism?

That’s my big problem and I have the intention to find some help in the future. It has become much too complicated for me.

You need an agent!

I like public relations, but I don’t want commercialism to come before creativity.

Living in Normandy must be very inspiring - lots of artistic history?

Normandy is a beautiful region and really inspiring for me: horses and foals in the fields, renowned stud farms…

It is also the native land of a lot of famous artists. Normandy is full of colours and the light is magnificent – with or without the rain! Furthermore, I appreciate the quality of life there and the honesty of the people.

In Normandy, the environment is good and so we feel good to create. There is a lot of space and nature is close to hand.

www.internationalthoroughbred.net

What are your future plans for your work?

Where do you want your work to go?

I want to keep the pleasure I have painting.

I would love to meet new people and discover new galleries, to work more abroad as well.

I would like my painting to become even more subjective, even more subtle.

Actually, I want to surpass myself and never let things become habits. And I wish to try sculpting if I find some time for it!
