THE NET EFFECT OF ALL OF THIS? What British Breeders need to know if sending mares to Ireland this Spring

Uncertainty on world financial markets means that Sterling’s as strong as it has been for seven years against the Euro, making Irishbased stallions better value than ever to British breeders.

Covering fees of Irish-based stallions have fallen by 10% since the December Sales. This seismic shift has been caused not by any issue within the bloodstock industry but by the larger problem of the continuing downward spiral of the European single currency against Sterling.

Don’t just take our word for it – have you noticed how Coolmore’s recent advertisements have emphasised the advantageous Sterling equivalent of their stallions’ Euro stud fees? And when did John Magnier’s marketing men last make a mistake?

At the beginning of the December Sales in Newmarket, £1 would have bought €1.25. Into March, £1 is worth €1.38, an increase of 10% in your favour, driven by Greek uncertainty, politicians and widespread financial market negativity about the Eurozone’s problems. In real terms, €100,000 of 2015 covering fees have fallen in cost to British breeders by £7,500 in just 100 days.

Needless to say, this has not happened before.

Nor is this an isolated blip on the graph: compared to a year ago, when £1 was worth €1.19, €100,000 now costs you £11,000 less.

Fifty years after his death, that famous breeder Winston Churchill’s words come to mind - that a pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity while an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty.

And since you breed racehorses, by definition you’re the latter of the two.

At Plutus, we can help you realise the opportunity from the Euro’s difficulty. We’re a specialist Foreign Exchange provider, offering exchange rates for foreign currencies which are remarkably sharper than those offered by High Street banks, thus saving you money

Plutusfx Ltd. is authorised by the Financial Conduct Authority (FRN 521572) for the provision of payment services

£11,000 OFF YOUR STALLION FEES IN 2015 on all overseas payments. Unlike High Street banks, we don’t offer loans, credit cards, or investment advice. Or impersonal service, hidden charges, never-ending queues, overseas call centres, tedious delays to international payments or indeed account managers who can never be reached by telephone or in person.

Being specialists in foreign currency enables us to offer forward contracts for your covering fees, allowing you to book your Euro now, at today’s favourable exchange rate, without having to pay for them until October 1st, or to fit whatever terms you’ve agreed for your mare.

them then we promise you a straightforward and common-sense conversation. We definitely won’t make you feel, in the words of legendary American trainer Charlie Whittingham, “as confused as the little boy who lost his chewing gum in the chicken coop”.

Covering fees are one of the biggest costs of your bloodstock investment, and a eleven grand discount always helps. We’ll help you make the right decisions for your stallion fees in 2015.

In a market driven by uncertainty (and as a breeder, you’ll be used to that), the only thing we lack is the crystal ball to tell you not only where the Euro goes from here but also if and when David Redvers will appear on your doorstep waving a chequebook.

Since we understand both the currency market and the bloodstock business, we already work on behalf of some of the biggest names in European bloodstock. If you’d like to talk to us about joining

hether this was the best Royal Ascot, or merely one of the best, is really hard to say. One’s opinion tends to be coloured by decent weather, international competition of the highest level and most of all by reasonably successful punting after a disastrous start.

But from the moment the gates opened for the Queen Anne on Tuesday untill the moment Oriental Fox dug some of us out of our holes in the much-mocked Queen Alexandra (“the hurdle race without hurdles”) this was a five-day epic of excitement, disappointment, triumph, disaster, euphoria and awe.

Everything in other words that racing aspires to be and so often isn’t quite.

Not everyone loves the pageantry (flummery?) or the self-consciousness (vanity? pomposity? snobbery?) or the tendency to platitude (did anyone else feel that if one more interviewee claimed it was “just a privilege to be here” then suspicions of rehearsal could be confirmed?).

But as a race meeting this was almost flawless. Somehow, since the turn of the millennium, this meeting has been turned into the greatest in the world. It’s been achieved without sponsorship and without real help from prize-money. In global terms the record £5.5 million is peanuts now. Dubai spends more than that on just a couple of races. But it’s been done.

So who do we thank? Nick Smith for worldwide recruiting?

The IRB for same? “Stoker”, the Duke of Devonshire? Duggie Two Names, as Alastair Down used to call Douglas Erskine-Crum, for getting the ball rolling in the first place? The Queen herself? Or a combination of all and more?

We asked the same questions

“

It’s a wonderful thing for US racing that the Triple Crown drought is over, but will “AP” ever be up to winning a race such as the Prince Of Wales’s Stakes that unfortunately California Chrome, last year’s Triple Crown hopeful, sadly could not contest

first word a year ago and nobody put a shy hand up. But the fact is that somehow the prestige and antiquity, the sheer dignity of Ascot has been parlayed into an event that now bestrides the racing world. It’s getting to the point where anybody who thinks they might have a chance of winning there wants to try to – and there’s no other meeting anywhere of which that can truly be said.

What individuals should we lionise this time? Ryan Moore obviously. The inaugural winner of the Longines World’s Best Jockey title must have gone a long way towards retaining it with his record-breaking tally.

But even Moore is human. In racing you need luck as well as judgement, and he’d have landed two more if the filly Found had hung on from Ervedya, whom she had beaten in the Prix Marcel Moussac as a juvenile, and Kingfisher who didn’t get a blow in at Trip To Paris in the Gold Cup. Moore achieved his record without excessive dependence on Aidan O’Brien, who had another tremendous Ascot getting almost all his runners peaking at exactly the right time.

Gleneagles, who has so far been beaten only on his debut and by the French stewards, is getting to look a lot like another “best horse in the world”.

And that includes the current kingpin America Pharoah, who some of us would like to see up against international competition on Turf before we fall to our knees before him for beating up the same bunch three times at different distances on Dirt.

It’s a wonderful thing for US racing that the Triple Crown drought is over, but will “AP” ever be up to winning a race such as the Prince Of Wales’s Stakes that unfortunately California Chrome, last year’s Triple Crown hopeful, sadly could not contest.

Or could he win it next year?

first word without additives against the best of all ages at the best venue, if you like.

The internationalisation of Ascot got off to a bad start this year. Not for the French, of course, but for those who’d travelled a little further than from Chantilly. The race was billed as a confrontation between the Dubai Turf winner Solow and the “beast from the East” Able Friend from Hong Kong for the “world’s best miler” title. In the end it was nothing of the sort because “the beast” didn’t turn up.

Oh, he was there all right, but you could see before the start that this wasn’t the nonchalant, imperious Able Friend his fans have grown used to. Normally the embodiment of calm, he was visibly nervous and covered in sweat on a cool day, and beaten before they even loaded.

What went wrong? He travelled perfectly, eating and drinking all the way and losing only ten of his 1300lb in transit. He settled perfectly at Michael Bell’s Newmarket yard. He worked so well that his champion trainer John Moore said he couldn’t have been more delighted when he arrived four days before the race.

Yet he was beaten even before we found out how he would react to the undulations of the straight mile. It could have been the 5,700 mile trip. It could have been a failure to acclimatise.

It shouldn’t have been the big crowd ballyhoo because he’s used to that at ShaTin, although the human fervour that preceded the Queen Anne may have got to him as there’s nothing much like it this side of Day 1 of Cheltenham.

One guess is that the fact that he’s been contesting and winning Group 1s since last November may finally have caught up with him. The mistake no one should make is to think that was the real Able Friend behind Solow.

It would be a terrible shame if Able Friend’s no-show persuaded

It would be a terrible shame if Able Friend’s no-show persuaded Hong Kong owners that Ascot is just too difficult.

Hong Kong owners that Ascot is just too difficult. They only have to go back two years to Little Bridge’s cantering victory in the King’s Stand to realise it isn’t.

The Japanese have no such precedent to draw on. But they too should avoid dismay at the defeat of Spielberg. He’s a decent horse, but he’s no Orfevre.

T

hrough the week though, one by one, the international, or at least the intercontinental hopes came to nothing, although Acapulco’s Group 2 Queen Mary was a bright spot for Coolmore, Wesley Ward and the US. The French were fine and Ervedya added lustre to their invasion force when cutting down Found in the Coronation Stakes on the Friday.

The Americans, the Asians and the Australians made no impression on the earlyweek major races though, with Hootenanny the gravest disappointment in the inaugural Group 1 3yo sprint, the Commonwealth Stakes.

Then came the Diamond Jubilee and the big turnaround with Undrafted giving the US its Group 1 victory coming home

ahead of Australia’s Brazen Beau, a third winner of the week for the resurgent Frankie.

Did Craig Williams blunder by keeping Brazen Beau out wide on what he’d reckoned to be the better ground? Here’s one yes vote, although trainer Chris Waller pointedly refused to blame him, calling it “a great ride” and insisting that – aw you guessed it, “it’s just a privilege to be here”.

Nobody could begrudge Wesley Ward anyway, a great supporter of the meeting and an Ascot trailblazer for America.

The jubilation of his family was a marvel to behold too.

Finally, thanks to the clerk of the course Chris Stickels for not ruining the meeting with watering. The going was quick without being dangerous, the sadly fatal injury to Stravagante notwithstanding, and on perfect ground almost every single hard luck story seemed attributable to human error of the steering or the preparation variety.

The other cliché nearly everyone on social media seemed to come up with was ‘There is just nothing to compare with Royal Ascot’.

That now seems incontestably true.

Retirement for leading photographer Trevor Jones

Trevor Jones: always has a camera to hand and a smile on his face

International Thoroughbred’s in-house photographer Trevor Jones has retired.

A leading racing and bloodstock photographer for the last 40 years, Trevor will be missed by all on this publication for the professionalism and skill he brought to this job.

“I had intended going on to at least 70, but I now need to have some heart surgery at Papworth Hospital so it seemed an ideal time to bow out and enjoy some time with my grandchildren,” he said. “We have always prided ourselves on the quality of our

service – being able to find something specific for a client.”

Cameras have always been part of Trevor’s working life.

He started out with a job in a camera shop in Eastbourne before graduating to sports coverage for agencies such as Allsport (now Getty Images) covering events from World Cup football to Wimbledon before deciding to focus on horseracing and bloodstock.

He has always been an innovator: in the 1980s he was among the first photographers to produce racing images in colour.

Trevor also brought the skill of the sports photographer to the world of bloodstock, encouraging owners to depart from the standard conformation portrait to photographing stallions on the move.

“Not everyone thought it would be fun standing in a paddock with a stallion galloping loose!” said Trevor.

One of the most respected photographers in racing, Trevor was retained by Pacemaker magazine for nearly 20 years before becoming retained for International Thoroughbred.

“Trevor has been wonderful

to work with, we always knew we’d get first-class shots from Trevor capturing the essense of the action and story, whether it was of the Derby, at Cheltenham or for a bloodstock stud feature,” said Sally Duckett, editor of International Thoroughbred.

“I have worked with him for over ten years and certainly learned much from him, while my business partner and advertising manager Declan Rickatson has worked with Trevor for 20 years – right back to Pacemaker days.

“Trevor and his wife Gill have been fun and a delight to work alongside, and the couple were

instrumental in helping us get this magazine up and running.

We can’t thank them enough.”

Through his own agency Thoroughbred Photography Trevor and Gill worked for some of the biggest stud farms, including Darley and Juddmonte.

Trevor was always at the big and small race meetings providing images for the racecourses, the British Horseracing Authority, as well as for private clients, publications and owners.

Trevor is currently recovering from his heart surgery at Papworth and we wish him well.

Goffs London Sale: good start to Ascot but a sale of mixed results The Goffs London Sale provided a pleasant prelude to Ascot week, if perhaps not the figures that were hoped for by the Goffs team.

Turnover for the horsesin-training section fell by 28 per cent from last year to £2,975,000, the average for the horses in training fell by two per cent to £247,917 although the median showed improvement by 27 per cent to £190,000.

Of the 24 horses in training offered, half sold with a number not reaching reserves. The dual Group 3 winner Majestic Queen topped the section at £825,000.

Turnover for the breeze-up horses fell by 46 per cent to £809,000. The average dropped by 16 per cent to £73,545 and the median fell by 23 per cent to £62,000, 11 out of 18 horses offered were sold. The breezeup session was headed by a son

of Speightstown sold to David Redvers for £200,000.

“We’re very satisfied, although we obviously didn’t hit the highs of last year, which was exceptional,” said Henry Beeby.

“The sale of Majestic Queen was a spectacular story and the fact it reduced the mare’s owners to tears of joy tells you all you need to know.

“Clearly there were some ambitious reserves on the night,

but they were good horses and vendors are entitled to do that.

“We will look at the breeze-up concept. Bringing the horses to the palace worked well, although it was a logistical challenge, the £200,000 Speightstown colt was an excellent result.

“We need to speak to vendors to see if they think the demand is there for the specific type of breeze-up horse you need at this time of year.”

Qipco announces sponsorship deal worth £50 million The ongoing desire for Qatari interests to be involved with and support British racing was given another boost ahead of Royal Ascot when it was announced that a “landmark

dea” has been made with Qatari organisation Qipco.

The deal will see support for some of the biggest races in the Flat calendar backed until 2024 through its sponsorship of British Champions Series.

Since 2011 Qipco has supported the series, which runs from the Guineas until British Champions Day at Ascot in October.

Prize-money across the 35 premier race series has increased

by 50 per cent since its launch to £17.4 million in 2015.

The deal has been estimated as being worth £50m to racing with the most immediate tangible effect being the boost to the prizemoney for the 2016 1,000 and 2,000 Guineas at Newmarket, taking the top pot for the two Classics to £500,000 each. The races were run for £410,000 and £450,000 last month.

The centrepiece of the Qipco deal, which reflects the heavy

reliance of racing on its Middle Eastern backers, will continue to be British Champions day at Ascot in October, currently worth £4m. The ambition is for that to rise to £5m by 2024.

Qipco became Ascot’s first Official Partner last year and that relationship has also been extended to run until 2024.

The new deal gives Qipco two elevated days at Royal Ascot (Tuesday and Friday), with enhanced branding benefits.

The new Group 1 Commonwealth Sprint for three-year-olds was well contested and ranked highly on betting turnover.

It is one race there is unlikely to ever be an Australian challenge in: though no doubt Gai Waterhouse will prove me wrong.

The best result by the Australian horses this year came from the brave Brazen Beau, who ploughed a lone furrow on the stand side and was just thwarted by a renascent Frankie

W

ith the summer solstice behind us now and four of the five Classics already run, the intriguing clash of the generations will shortly begin.

In the US, American Pharoah has become the first Triple Crown winner since Affirmed in 1978 and only the 13th in 141 years.

Like Pot-8-Os (winner of 34 races in the 18th century), the name was misspelt but it has stuck. This time it was a fan in Missouri rather than the groom notice the error.

Two three-year-old colts with British championship pretensions are the unbeaten Golden Horn and Gleneagles, who is unbeaten this year.

Karpino could enter the fray if he, as expected, wins the German Derby.

Ascot attendances held up well and, apart from a rainsoaked end to Saturday, so did the weather. Thanks to a sterling team effort initiated by the recently retired Charles Barnett, Ascot has become a much more user-friendly racecourse and is again a pleasure to visit.

The tables between the paddock and saddling boxes are a great

Dettori on Wesley Ward’s second winner of the meeting, Undrafted.

I Am Invincible, the sire of Brazen Beau, is a fine-looking son of Invincible Spirit, who stands at Yarraman Stud with the Mitchell family.

English emigrant Slip Mitchell bought the stud from George Moore, the legendary jockey and father of John and Gary, in 1968.

The stud now also stands Hinchinbrook, a Fastnet Rock relation to Snitzel, who currently heads the first-season sires’ list and will almost certainly give Harry and Arthur another championship after I Am Invincible’s success last year. His fee has risen from A$11,000 to A$55,000.

Australian racing is still struggling to deal with their cobalt positives.

New South Wales has moved quicker than the Victorian Racing authorities and have banned trainer Darren Smith for 15 years and have suspended Sam Kavanagh, whose father Mark, is also under investigation in Victoria.

In a new development, Xenon and Argon gas “treatments”, which are reported to be used by athletes and cyclists as it reportedly increases levels of EPO, have been banned by

Racing Victoria.

The gases are meant to be very effective in conjunction with high altitude chambers.

The gases were banned last year by the World Anti-Doping Authority amid claims Russian athletes had been using them for years to boost stamina before international competitions.

Despite the lack of tests for xenon in an athlete’s system, unexplained increases in testosterone levels or discrepancies in a biological passport are punishable with a ban.

In April, the Racing Victoria integrity team sent a note to all trainers informing them the gases are prohibited substances In a final twist, a new “supposed enhancer“ was found near the stable of Diademe, ahead of the Group 1 Tattersalls Tiara on the Gold Coast, she is trained by New Zealander Bjorn Baker.

Racing Queensland stewards found five bottles of unknown liquid in the stables where Diademe was stabled, four of which were labelled “Kentucky Green”. The fifth bottle was unmarked and there were also syringes found near the stable.

Diademe was scratched from the race.

the news QIPCO will also enjoy annual branding and marketing rights, with a particular emphasis on the King George weekend at which the company sponsors the King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes. The race value increased this year to £1.15million.

Sheikh Hamad bin Abdullah al-Thani, chief executive of Qipco, said: “As a private, familyrun investment company, we are privileged to have built an association with world-renowned events such as Royal Ascot and the British Champions Series, the very best of British racing.

“Our sponsorship of the sport

has benefited our bloodstock operation and increased the company’s international profile.

We are proud to support British racing and its heritage.”

Sheikh Fahad bin Abdullah alThani, chairman of Qatar Racing, added: “My brothers and I share a passion for thoroughbred racing, and British racing in particular.

“It is in our interests to promote the quality of British racing as the value of the horses we race and the stallions we stand is enhanced if they are competing in the country with the best racing in the world.”

Steward Ian Brown said that investigators spoke with Baker’s stablehand who informed them he had brought the bottles for trainer Alicia Willick, who owns the stables.

A “trotting element” seems common to a lot of the positives and it was where “milkshakes” in Australia originated from and held sway for so long.

Baker was reported to have said before the race that it was to be Diademe’s last before she was retired to stud. The mare was recently bought by Coolmore and the China Horse Club for A$740,000 at the Gold Coast broodmare sale.

Fortunately for British racing the BHA has a retrospective rule that allows it to test frozen samples for up to two years.

Also, James Stier, the director of raceday operations and regulation, is an Australian and was chief stipendiary in Hong Kong, where much of the Cobalt B sampling was processed.

At home, we suffered a sad blow when our Red Poll bull was tested positive for T.B. We had only used him for a year.

He came from East Anglia, where T.B. is very uncommon, and he was a great colour with a very pleasant temperament. The disease was confirmed after a postmortem.

We now have to undergo a couple

more herd tests before we get the all clear.

We once again survived the fifth year of a “legal rave” with around 800 guests “raving” over last two years.

I don’t think we will turn Kingsclere into a Pilton or me into a Michael Eavis, but the event does contribute a decent cheque to Kingsclere’s St Mary’s fabric fund and the organisers do a grand job of clearing up.

Touch wood, the sound seems to be well trapped in a wooded fold in the Downs.

The electro house/techno music does not really appeal to me, but a couple of live acts in the adjoining bowl would really “spin my wheels”.

Finally, my sister Lady Emma Balding has named a horse after me – he is by Lord of England out of Marajuana. She took a sadistic pleasure when gelding him in June.

Mind you, I had named a Saddleback sow Lady Emma, she was bought as a companion for a Berkshire sow, Sophie. She was neither a good mother nor particularly fertile, but made into great sausages. Lady Emma has been a wonderful mother with four large litters and hopefully a couple more to come.

Perhaps Lord Huntingdon will make his mark and become another Side Glance!

All change at the top at Juddmonte and Darley US

Philip Mitchell, general manager of Juddmonte Farms, is retiring and will leave the position later this year, while Charlie Boden, head of sales at Darley since 2006, is to leave the company on July 1.

Mitchell, who is reported to be reaching a “certain” birthday in 2016 and has been managing Juddmonte for the last 27 years, said: “I could not have worked for a more knowledgeable or fairer person than Prince Khalid to whom I am indebted. I am so very proud of what we have achieved here.

Philp Mitchell: retiring “I am confident that Juddmonte will continue to thrive going forward and I will be working with the team to ensure the continued success of this great organisation.”

Douglas Erskine Crum, CEO of the Juddmonte Group, said: “Philip is not departing for six months, but it is not too early to say, on behalf of everyone connected with Juddmonte, a very big thank you to him.

“It is important to recognise his outstanding achievements over the past 27 years, during which time he has been responsible for overseeing the success of Frankel, Kingman, Oasis Dream and many other Juddmonte champions, including the remarkable broodmare band.

“Philip has been at the heart of Juddmonte’s success and established himself at the very top of the worldwide breeding industry. He has guided the operation with professionalism, skill and humour and is rightly widely respected.”

Charlie Boden has led the Darley US sales team since 2006. “I’ve enjoyed nine thrilling years at Darley, working with some of the best brains in the business,” said Boden, who is reported to have no immediate career plans. “It’s been extremely stimulating to work in a global organization inspired by Sheikh Mohammed’s ambition; a fabulous experience, a great education, and many lasting friendships made. Best of all, it’s been my enormous good fortune to have spent so much of the last decade in the company of Darley’s clients, who include the very finest breeders of racehorses in the world.”

John Ferguson, Sheikh Mohammed’s bloodstock advisor, said: “Charlie is not only one of the most knowledgeable and wise men in Kentucky, he’s also one of the most likable. He walks the walk and talks the talk, and no one better proves the adage that the thoroughbred business is, first and foremost, a people business. We wish him every success and happiness in the future.”

Jimmy Bell, Darley’s president, says, “It has been a great run with Charlie here at Darley. His integrity and commitment to the company have been both beneficial and exemplary. We look forward to working with him as he moves toward a new frontier in his career.”

A Shadwell Stud-sponsored summer of art and Arabian racing After successful exhibitions at Dubai International Arabian Races (DIAR) last year and also at the National Horse Racing Museum (NHRM) in 2013, the Society of Equestrian Artists (SEA) has produced another selection of Arabian racingthemed work to be shown at both venues this summer.

The exhibition will preview at DIAR on July 26 at Newbury racecourse and then transfer to the NHRM in Newmarket, where it will remain until October.

It coincides with two

Salaama: an oil by Lisa Miller

Arabian racing events – the Arabian Racing Organisation season finale at Huntingdon on September 20 and the UK

Arabian Derby to be held at Newmarket five days later. Both are sponsored by Shadwell Stud.

The exhibition at Newbury will also feature a selection of Shadwell stallion brochure cover original art works and the unveiling of this year’s image, a life-size painted horse by Jennifer Bell.

The SEA artists have been the source of many of the images for the brochure and Elizabeth Armstrong and Michelle McCullagh, have work included in the Arabian exhibition.

Armstrong will also be hosting

a Young Person’s Art Workshop at Newbury, artists Laura BarberRiley and Debbie Dunbar will be recording the day’s events by painting from life, while other work exhibited includes oil paintings by Lisa Miller, winner of the Denford Stud-sponsored “Best In Show” award at last year’s SEA annual exhibition.

Now in its fourth decade DIAR is the most valuable day’s Arabian racing in the world with four Group races, many overseas runners and over 100 entries for the early closing races.

...for leading sales consignor Ted Voute, who voices his opinion on all things bloodstock and sales-related

ong forgotten is the old grandstand and parade ring at Ascot, a racecourse which now hosts a truly international group of racing professionals, owners, investors and pure enthusiasts.

It’s British racing’s one time of the year to attract the many 1000s of people to come to Royal Ascot to dress up and have

a picnic.

Ascot has done a great job – the food choices have improved, the traffic control is excellent, and, needless to say, the horses competing are first class. Bravo!

As a racing professional, I find the Oaks and the Derby less appealing.

If you are without a base or invitation, the areas at which to base yourself without the intrusion of very drunk members of the public sprawling on the grass are fairly limited.

However, the Derby is the race we all want to win and what a joy it was to see Mr Oppenheimer breed and win the race with such an impressive racehorse this year.

Investec have taught us how sponsorship should be done on a racecourse, but facilities for the professional who wants to go to the racecourse and watch arguably the best Derby in the world, find it difficult to attend in a “civilised” way.

The racing world moves on to Goodwood – many people enjoy a week or two off whilst racing resets itself and waits for the good horses from Ascot and Epsom to reappear.

The final weeks of yearling sale placements are ahead of us, whilst we juggle to get yearlings catalogued in the right auctions. Major sales companies have struggled to accommodate the increased number of nominations, largely caused by the European interest in selling in sterling.

Someone did point out to me that it often pays in this industry to be contrary and conversely it may just happen that many will not want to

16

www.internationalthoroughbred.net

buy in such an expensive currency.

Preparation has already started for the Arqana and Doncaster select sales – it creeps up straight after Royal Ascot. The reputation of both sale companies, the consistent supply of two-year-old winners from Doncaster and the good strike-rate that Arqana, gives both different attributes to Tattersalls and Goffs.

One added advantage that I think the early sales have is that yearlings bought in August can be turned back out to grass to catch the autumn flush as many owners want to wait untill a little later to break their horses in. I have had a good amount of success buying at Arqana and am convinced this is the contributory factor.

With my first Thoroughbred Breeders Association council meeting approaching as a newly elected board member, the industry has interesting and challenging times ahead and I hope that the contentious issues will come up for discussion. I will endeavour to put forward the many ideas people have suggested.

I look forward to a Breeders’ Cup at Keeneland – president Bill Thomason said that the meeting has sold out, so other than having a runner or being invited by some sort of hospitality, there is no way to attend. Apparently, in a 24-hour period over 43,000 people, more than those buying for a Hyde Park Rolling Stones concert, bought tickets to attend the first Breeders’ Cup held at Keeneland.

The meeting promises to be a good couple of days though there will be plenty of logistical problems for hotels with parking and similar, but the racecourse’s new Dirt track with its amazingly well thought out drainage system has already shown itself off.

At the spring meet despite racing having to be abandoned half-way through the card after torrential rain, the next afternoon the racecourse had to be watered! It promises to be an intimate affair with some great competitive racing. It’s a tight grass track so I am sure it will not suit all, particularly Europeans, but others will excel.

t’s doubtful if any meet has greater international participation than that of Royal Ascot. A prime example was the Prince of Wales’s Stakes (G1) as even without reigning US Horse of the Year California Chrome – sidelined by a foot issue a few days before the race – the contest still featured runners from England, Ireland, France, Australia and Japan.

In the end, Ireland’s Free Eagle, making only the fifth start of his career, held on to score by a short-head from last year’s Prix du Jockey-Club (G1) winner and Irish Champion Stakes (G1) winner, The Grey Gatsby.

Free Eagle is by Sadler’s Wells’s late son, High Chaparral – winner of the English and Irish Derbys (G1) and back-to-back renewals

royal ascot of the Breeders’ Cup Turf (G1).

Free Eagle is also the third Royal Ascot Group 1-winning colt for his sire following the southern-hemisphere-sired So You Think, who took this race in 2012, and Toronado, who won the Queen Anne Stakes (G1) in 2014.

Out of the Danehill mare Polished Gem, Free Eagle is half-brother to Irish leading older mare Sapphire, and to five-time Group winner Custom Cut. He is Moyglare Studbred throughout.

Polished Gem is a sister to Matriarch Stakes (G1) scorer Dress To Thrill, and to Trust In Luck, grand-dam of three stakes winners, including Vert De Grace, successful in the Criterium International (G1).

Second dam, Affirmed’s daughter Trusted Partner, captured the Irish 1,000 Guineas (G1). She is a sister to the Group winner Easy To Copy, dam of three stakes winners, granddam of two others, and third dam of the Grand Prix de Paris (G1) victor Gallante.

Free Eagle’s third dam is champion US two-year-old filly Talking Picture.

He is the first Group 1 winner for High Chaparral out of a Danehill mare, but the sire has had three other Group/Graded winners on the cross.

Solow comes home alone in the Queen Anne

The keenly anticipated duel fizzled out in the Queen Anne (G1) when the Hong Kong star Able Friend failed to fire, leaving Solow – bearing the colours carried to victory in this race by the immortal Goldikova in 2010 – to score fairly comfortably from his fellow French-trained runner, the filly Esoterique.

In doing so the formidable grey recorded his tenth win in his last 11 starts, and his seventh straight.

Solow was initially thought likely to make a stayer, and that’s not surprising considering his pedigree.

He’s from the last crop of Singspiel (by the Sadler’s Wells horse, In The Wings) and out of the Highest Honor mare, High Maintenance. Singspiel was at his best at

four and five capturing major events between 1m2f and 1m4f in four different countries, among them the Dubai World Cup (G1), Canadian International Stakes (G1), Japan Cup (G1), Vodafone Coronation Cup (G1) and Juddmonte International Stakes (G1).

Generally an influence for stamina, Singspiel was a highly successful sire with 98 stakes winners to his name, 14 Group/ Grade 1 scorers, and, in addition to Solow, his best include the champion US turf mare Lahudood, Dubai World Cup scorer Moon Ballad, Prix de Diane Hermes (G1) winner Confidential Lady, and three-time Group/ Grade 1 winner Dar Re Mi. Solow’s dam High Maintenance was even stouter – she won over 1m7f and finished third in the Qatar Prix Gladiateur (G3), just shy of 2m.

High Maintenance is a half-sister to Hostessante, a French Listed winner whose Dixieland Band daughter Colony Band was a stakes winner and Group/Graded placed in both France and the US, and subsequently produced the Northern Dancer Stakes (G3) scorer Colizeo.

Fabulous Hostess, the dam of High Maintenance, was a talented middle-distance runner winning a trio of Group events headed by the Prix de Royallieu (G2). She’s also a half-sister to stakes-placed Young Manila, the grand-dam of the Pretty Polly Stakes (G1)

Diamond Jubilee winner Undrafted is by the deceased sire Purim, from the family of Dr. Fager, who held four US leading horse titles in one season

winner Thistle Bird.

Solow and the Group 2 winner Au Revioir are two of only five starters by Singspiel out of Highest Honor mares. Singspiel also has a Group winner out of a mare by Take Risks, who is by Highest Honor out of a Northern Dancer line mare, so bred on the same cross as Solow’s dam.

There are strong background similarities between the background of Singspiel and of Highest Honor/High Maintenance.

Singspiel’s grandsire Sadler’s Wells is

by Northern Dancer out of a mare by Bold Reason. His sire In The Wings is out of a mare by Mill Reef (by Bold Reason’s halfbrother Never Bend), and Singspiel’s dam is a Turn-to line mare.

Highest Honor is by Kenmare, a Nasrullah/ Djeddah cross, like Never Bend. Highest Honor’s dam is by Riverman, a Never Bend son, bred like Mill Reef, out of a Turn-to line mare, and the fact that High Maintenance’s dam is Northern Dancer line, makes her something of a mirror image to Singspiel.

Sprint success for the US, but Oasis Dream’s son took the King’s Stand

Internationalism was also the theme of the Diamond Jubilee Stakes (G1) with US-trained Undrafted running down Australian star, Brazen Beau.

Undrafted is by far the best runner for his deceased sire, the Shadwell Turf Mile Stakes (G1) winner Purim, a son of Dynaformer and from the family of the legendary Dr. Fager.

Undrafted’s dam French Jeannette is a daughter of the Deputy Minister stallion

The week’s earlier sprint for older horses,

Trip To Paris and Graham Lee take the Gold Cup

the Kings’s Stand Stakes (G1) was dominated by another gelding, the six-year-old Goldream who got home from the nine-year-old Medicean Man. Goldream is by Oasis Dream (Green Desert), a champion two-year-old and champion sprinter in Europe, and after the victory of Muhaarar in the Commonwealth Cup (G1) later in the meeting, sire of 14 Group 1 winners.

Goldream is out of the Machiavellian mare, Clizia, a half-sister to French Listed winner Mont Rocher, while his second dam Cuixmala is a half-sister to European champion and great Classic sire Montjeu, and to the dam of champion Irish two-year-old filly Again.

Goldream is the third stakes winner by Oasis Dream out of a Machiavellian mare, the others including Group 1 scorer Naaqoos.

Paris got the Trip

At the other end of the distance scale, the Ascot Gold Cup (G1) went to the improving Trip To Paris, who recorded his first stakes triumph.

Trip To Paris is by Champs Elysees, a brother to Dansili, who has appeared in the pedigree of several of this week’s Royal Ascot winners.

A Group 3 winner in France, Champs Elysees did better in North America winning the Hollywood Turf Cup (G1), Northern Dancer Turf Stakes (G1) and Canadian International Stakes (G1).

Trip To Paris is one of six stakes winners from his first crop, the others including Group winner Xcellence, who also placed third in the

royal ascot

Mastercraftsman has got off to a very good start at stud with 11 stakes winners in his first two northern-hemisphere crops, eight of them Group class French 1,000 Guineas (G1) and Oaks (G1).

Champs Elysees’s second crop already includes the Group-winning and Group 1-placed Jack Naylor, and he is beginning to make a mark at stud.

Trip To Paris is out of the Fantastic Light (Rahy) mare La Grande Zoa, while his second dam, the unraced Majestic Sister (Last Tycoon), is a sister to European champion Ezzoud and stakes winner Get Away With It, and half-sister to the multiple Group 1-winning miler Distant Relative.

If going right back to the fifth dam we find Natasha, winner of Alabama Stakes and broodmare of the year in the US and ancestress of such great horses as the 2,000 Guineas (G1) victor Lomond, US champion three-year-old filly Questing, the Group and Grade 1 winners Gold And Ivory, Margarula, Milleverof, Grand Marshall and major stallion Elusive Quality.

Trip To Paris follows Jack Naylor as the second stakes winner for Champs Elysees out of a Blushing Groom line mare.

Snow Sky: a Hardwicke score for Nayef

Nayef’s son Forgotten Rules lost his undefeated record in the Gold Cup, but the sire still came up with a Group winner at the Royal meet when Snow Sky led throughout to take the Hardwicke Stakes (G2) from Eagle Top. The sire has had a good season this year.

Nayef won the Prince of Wales’s Stakes (G1) at Royal Ascot at five, and in previous seasons he’d also taken the Champion Stakes (G1), Juddmonte International (G1) and Sheema Classic (G1). He has 21 stakes winners to his name, including the Group 1 winners Lady Marian and Tamayuz.

Snow Sky is out of the Listed-placed Dansili mare Winter Silence, a three-quarters sister to the Prix Greffulhe (G2) scorer Ice Blue, and a half-sister to Meteor Storm, whose successes included the Manhattan Handicap (G1), and to Sheema Classic (G1) winner Polish Summer, as well as to the Group winner Host Nation.

Second dam Hunt The Shack, is a sister to Raintrap, a three-time Group/Grade 1 winner

and leading three-year-old stayer in France, and to Sunshack, who was not only a leading two-year-old in France, but went on to win the Coronation Cup (G1), Prix Royal-Oak (G1) and Criterium de Saint-Cloud (G1) .

Just Amazing for Mastercraftsman

The Duke Of Cambridge Stakes (G2) for fillies and mares went to Amazing Maria, a daughter of Mastercraftsman.

Mastercraftsman has got off to a very good start at stud with 11 stakes winners in his first two northern-hemisphere crops, eight of them Group class, including, in addition to Amazing Maria and The Grey Gatsby – a dual Group 1-winning three-year-old – the St. Leger (G1) scorer Kingston Hill.

He’s also sired five stakes winners, four of them graded, in his first Australian crop.

Amazing Maria is out of Messias Da Silva, a two-year-old-winning daughter of Tale Of The Cat. The second dam Indy Power is an A.P. Indy half-sister to US stakes winners One More Power and Dixie Power.

Amazing Maria and stakes winner Pablosky are the only foals by Mastercraftsman out of mares by Tale Of The

Cat, Mastercraftsman and Tale Of The Cat both being Northern Dancer/Mr. Prospector crosses.

He also has had the graded winner Craftsman out of a mare by Forest Wildcat, who like Tale Of The Cat is by Storm Cat out of a Raise A Native line mare, his dam being

by Mr. Prospector’s close relative, Forest Wildcat.

Oasis Dream: Group 1 double-header

With the French Classic winner Make Believe failing to fire, it wasn’t difficult for English and Irish 2,000 Guineas (G1) victor Gleneagles to confirm his standing as Europe’s top miler in the St. James’s Palace Stakes (G1).

He’s now likely to head to Goodwood for the Sussex Stakes (G1) where he could meet Solow in a potentially intriguing clash of the ages.

Guineas form was also upheld in the Coronation Stakes (G1) which saw French 1,000 Guineas (G1) victress Ervedya score by a neck from Irish 1,000 Guineas (G1) second Found.

Oasis Dream was represented by his second Group 1 winner of the meeting when Muhaarar took the Commonwealth Stakes (G1) in impressive style.

A smart two-year-old last year when he won the Gimcrack Stakes (G2) and took third in the Middle Park Stakes (G1) and July Stakes (G2), Muhaarar won the Greenham Stakes (G3) on his reappearance, but

Oasis Dream scorer Muhaarar

royal ascot probably didn’t get the trip when unplaced in the Poule d’Essai des Poulains (G1).

Muhaarar is out of the stakes-placed Linamix mare Tahrir, also dam of juvenile black-type scorer Sajwah.

A sister to two-time Listed winner Mister Charm, and half-sister to the Prix de Guiche (G3) winner Mister Sacha, Tahir is out of Miss Sacha, winner of the Topaz Sprint (L), and placed fourth in the King’s Stand Stakes (G2).

The third dam is out of a daughter of Pugnacity, one of the fastest English fillies of the 1960s and subsequently dam of the

Epsom Derby (G1) runner-up and Benson and Hedges Gold Cup (G1) winner, Relkino.

Muhaarar is one of three stakes winners

by Oasis Dream out of mares by Linamix, a strain that has done well under Green Desert and Danzig in general. This represents the cross of Oasis Dream over a mare from his own broodmare sireline, that of Lyphard.

The sire of the second dam Last Tycoon is a Northern Dancer/Mill Reef cross, as is the dam of Oasis Dream, and Northern Dancer and Mill Reef’s sire, Never Bend, are both found close up in Oasis Dream’s sire, Green Desert.

Shamardal: enjoying a superb 2015

The 1m4f King Edward VII Stakes (G2) often reveals a promising later-developing threeyear-old middle-distance horse, and that was the case this time as the race fell to Balios, who was making only the third start of his career.

Balios is another credit for the French dual Classic winner Shamardal (Giant’s Causeway), who quite remarkably already has 17 stakes winners to his name in 2015, among them the official world high-ranked Able Friend and Grade 1

Zoffany takes the juvenile honours

T

here WAS no doubt the juvenile story at Royal Ascot was Zoffany, who equaled the record-breaking achievement of New Approach with three first-crop stakes winners at the meeting. The week on many differing angles proved to be a hugely successful one for Coolmore.

Zoffany, a son of Dansili, ran one of his own best races when coming within three-quarters of a length of catching an overexuberantly ridden Frankel in the St. James Palace Stakes (G1).

Zoffany was also a close second in the Prix Jean Prat (G1) at three, and at two, he won five of seven starts, including the Phoenix Stakes (G1), the Tyros Stakes (G3) and the Golden Fleece Stakes (L).

First of the trio succesful for the sire was Washington DC in the Windsor Castle Stakes.

He is out of How’s She Cuttin’, a daughter of Shinko Forest (Green Forest), and a stakesplaced juvenile sprinter.

The second dam Magic Annemarie (by the Nureyev horse, Dancing Dissident) is a half-sister to the dam of Aspen

24

Darlin, another smart two-yearold who won the Firth of Clyde Stakes (G3) and took second in the Cheveley Park Stakes (G1).

The third dam Magic Garter was also bred for speed as she is by the brilliant juvenile Precocious (by the Tudor Minstrel-line stallion Mummy’s Pet), and out of Magic Flute, who won the Cheveley Park Stakes at two and the Coronation Stakes (G2) at three.

Magic Flute is a noted taproot mare, who is also ancestress of the champion European two-year-old Grand Lodge, Golden Slipper (G1) runner-up English, and the Canterbury Guineas (G1) scorer Fine Society.

Magic Garter has an intriguing pedigree as Magic Flute’s grandsire and grand-dam, Tudor Minstrel and Gamble In Gold, are the great-grandsire and fourth dam of Precocious.

Zoffany stakes winner number two came in another 5f test, the Norfolk Stakes (G2) won by Waterloo Bridge.

The Zoffany three: (from the top) Windsor Castle winner Washington DC, the Albany heroine Illuminate and the speedy Norfolk winner Waterloo Bridge

www.internationalthoroughbred.net

He is half-brother to the Lawman filly Forces Of Darkness, a French Group winner who also took third in the Prix Saint-Alary (G1).

The dam Miss Childrey is a stakes-winning daughter of Dr. Fong (Kris S.), while the third dam Salvationist is by Mill Reef out of a half-sister to Lorenzaccio, conqueror of Nijinsky in the Champion Stakes. He was a disappointing sire, but still sired an influential son in Ahonoora.

The Zoffany hat-trick was completed in the Albany Stakes (G3) by Illuminate. She is out of the Green Desert mare Queen Of Stars, a half-sister to Italian Group scorer and Italian Oaks (G1) second, Lady Catherine.

The second dam Queen Catherine is a French Listed winner by Machiavellian out of Nureyev’s Group-placed daughter, Russian Royal.

Illuminate has quite a pedigree as both her sire and dam are Danzig/Machiavellian crosses with Danzig 4x4 and Machiavellian 3x3. Illuminate has five crosses of Northern Dancer, six of Northern Dancer’s dam Natalma, and eight of his grand-dam, Almahmoud!

royal ascot winner Dunboyne Express/Dan Excel.

Balios’s dam Elle Galante won twice in Germany and was stakes placed in France.

She’s an extremely well-bred individual as she is by Galileo out of Elle Danzig (Roi Danzig), a champion three-year-old filly and champion older mare in Germany, and twice winner of the Premio Roma (G1). She is a half-sister to German older mare Elle Shadow (Shamardal), and a three-quarters to Balios.

Balios is the first stakes winner for Shamardal out of a Galileo mare, but is the 11th for the sire out of all mares from the

“

Sadler’s Wells line. Shamardal’s son Lope De Vega also has a first-crop stakes winner out of a mare by Galileo.

The well-bred Curvy claims a Group 2 win

Similarly, the Ribblesdale Stakes (G2) for three-year-old fillies, run over the same trip as the King Edward Stakes, saw the improving Curvy score her fourth successive win by fighting off the Irish 1,000 Guineas (G1) heroine Pleascach.

Curvy was one of five runners for Galileo in

Buratino is a product of the very successful Danehill/Kingmambo cross that has produced nine stakes winners from 98 starters, three of them Group or Grade 1 Buratino: another Excel-lent two-year-old for his sire

The premier Royal Ascot event for juvenile colts, the Coventry Stakes (G2), went to Buratino.

He is a son of the reverse shuttler Exceed And Excel (Danehill), a graded winner at two and champion sprinter at three in Australia.

Exceed And Excel has been a phenomenal sire of juveniles in Australia – although his offspring are far from limited to just being two-year-olds – and has been represented by such stars as Guelph, Helmet, Earthquake, Overreach and Reward For Effort.

He’s also been highly effective with his northern-hemisphere crops, including horses such as Excelebration, a three-time Group 1 winner who would have had record of a superstar had he not so frequently run into Frankel!

Buratino is out of Bergamask, a daughter of Kingmambo, who was stakes-placed in France. The second dam, the Sadler’s Wells

mare Adonesque, won the Blue Wind Stakes, and is a half-sister to three other stakes winners, most notably champion Irish two-year-old and outstanding sire Danehill Dancer, by Exceed and Excel’s sire Danehill.

Buratino’s fourth dam Mira Adonde is out of a daughter of the brilliant French sprinter/ miler Lianga, also ancestress of Street Sense and Mr. Greeley.

Buratino is a product of the very successful Danehill/ Kingmambo cross that has produced nine stakes winners from 98 starters, three of them Group or Grade 1.

Exceed And Excel has also crossed very well with Mr. Prospector line mares in general (as here), and Buratino’s dam also has the three-quarters brothers Nureyev and Sadlers’ Wells, both of whom have been exceptional influences for Exceed and Excel.

Scat Daddy: the two-year-old sire regular at Royal Ascot

Two years ago US trainer Wesley Ward won the Norfolk Stakes

the ten-horse field, with two others being by his sons.

There can have been very few better bred fillies on display during the week – Curvy is a half-sister to the Irish 2,000 Guineas victor Power, who was also successful in the Coventry Stakes (G2) at Royal Ascot, to another Ribblesdale winner in Thakafaat, and to the dam of stakes winner Amnesia.

The dam Frappe is a half-sister to three more stakes winners, two of them Group 1, headed by Irish 2,000 Guineas hero Footstepsinthesand.

(G2) with No Nay Never, a son of Scat Daddy.

This year he was back for the Queen Mary Stakes (G2) with Scat Daddy daughter, Acapulco.

Despite having been beaten at odds on in her only previous outing, Acapulco started as favourite, and the imposing filly ran her rivals off their feet to score by just over a length.

Scat Daddy, the leading son of juvenile sensation Johannesburg, won two Grade 2s at two, and added a Grade 2 and the Florida Derby (G1) at three, prior to suffering a career ending injury in the Kentucky Derby (G1).

At stud, Scat Daddy has sired 24 stakes winners, 11 Group/ Graded in his first four crops (Acapulco is from his fifth). Scat Daddy is also the dominant sire in Chile with his southernhemisphere crops.

Acapulco’s third dam Friendly Wave traces back to the champion English two-year-old filly and 1,000 Guineas winner Night Off, who is her sixth dam.

Youmzain gets onto the stakes race sires’ board

The final two-year-old race of the week, the 7f Chesham Stakes, was won by Suits You, who held on by a short head from Galileo’s daughter, Ballydoyle.

Suits You is from the second crop of her sire Youmzain and is his first stakes winner.

A tough middle-distance

The son of Youmzain, Suits You

campaigner Youmzain (by the Grand Lodge horse Sinndar) raced for six seasons, and his wins included the Grand Prix de Saint-Cloud (G1) and Preis von Europa (G1), as well as seconds in three consecutive Prix de l’Arc de Triomphes (G1).

Suits You is out of the winning Oasis Dream mare, Lady Fashion. The second dam Carinae is a daughter of Nureyev out of the Seeking The Gold mare,Turning Wheel, winner of La Coupe de MaisonsLaffitte (G3).

The fourth dam Misinskie (Nijnsky) is half-sister to Clever Miss, fourth dam of Ascot’s Duke Of Cambridge Stakes winner Amazing Maria.

Suits You is another Ascot juvenile winner with an interesting pedigree involving Danzig inbreeding – his sire is a Danzig/Sadler’s Wells cross, while his dam is a Danzig/ Nureyev (three-quarters brother to Sadler’s Wells) cross.

Like the Derby winner Golden Horn, the family is another Oppenheimer-curated pedigree, but traces back to a half-sister of the Aga Khan’s Epsom Derby winner Blenheim II, through the Royal Stud’s foundation mare Open Warfare.

Curvy’s dam Frappe is by Inchinor (Ahonoora), which means that Curvy is bred on what is one of the strongest crosses for Galileo – that with Ahonoora-line mares.

Another improver, and a rapid one at that, is Time Test, who took the 1m2f Tercentenary Stakes (G3) on his Group-race debut, shaping like a horse who could go to the top of the tree.

He is another credit for his sire Dubawi, who for some time has been firmly established as one of the world’s leading sires, and who in 2015 with northern and southern-hemisphere crops is represented by an astonishing 24 individual stakes winners, Time Test: another star for Dubawi as racegoers shout him home (left)

17 Group or Graded, seven of them Group or Grade 1.

Time Test’s dam Passage Of Time – a daughter of Dansili – won the Criterium de Saint-Cloud (G1) and Musidora Stakes (G3), and she was also three-times Group/Grade 1 placed.

Passage Of Time is a sister to Father Time, who won the King Edward VII Stakes, and half-sister to Timepiece, winner of the Falmouth Stakes (G1).

The second dam Clepsydra is a Sadler’s Wells half-sister to Double Crossed, a stakes winner who subsequently produced champion European older horse, Twice Over.

The Dubawi/Danehill cross hasn’t been a prolific one, but, in addition to Time Test, it has produced three other stakes winners, including the Group 1 scorer Akeed Mofeed.

Dubai Destination developing into a notable broodmare sire

The 7f Jersey Stakes (G3) went to Dutch Connection, winner of last year’s Acomb Stakes (G3).

Dutch Connection is by Dutch Art, who has had 18 stakes winners, seven Group class, in his first four crops, including the Group 1-winning sprinters Slade Power and Garswood, and the five-time Group winner Caspar Netscher.

Dutch Connection is out of Endless Love, a daughter of Dubai Destination, a stallion who is becoming a useful broodmare sire, not least with Golden Horn.

Dutch Art and Dubai Destination (Kingmambo) are both Mr. Prospector line sires, but that strain is back in the fourth generation of the pedigree, and Dutch Art also has had two stakes winners out of mares

by Kingmambo’s son King’s Best.

Storm Cat and Galileo reap more rewards

Queen’s Vase winner Aloft is bred on the same cross as Gleneagles – being a son of Galileo out of a Storm Cat mare.

Despite being a son of Galileo, it’s a little surprising that Aloft saw out the trip as he’s half-brother to sprint Group winner Beauty Bright, and out of Dietrich, a two-time Group winner over 5f.

Second dam Piquetnol was Group 1-placed at France at two, and is a sister to Chimes Of Freedom, a Group 1 winner at two and three, and dam of the champion US sprinter Aldebaran and Grade 1 scorer Good Journey.

Gleneagles has classic review

the “ultimate stallion’s pedigree”

Alan Porter reports on the bloodstock stories from this season’s European Classics

www.internationalthoroughbred.net

classic review

T

he first round of the major European Classics included everything that you could want from a sire’s standpoint – wins for two of the world’s best sires, wins for two freshman sires, and even a first such winner for a reverse shuttler.

Both the English and Irish renewals of the 2,000 Guineas (G1) went to Gleneagles, who therefore assumed leadership of the three-year-old mile division. Gleneagles is yet another Classic credit for sire Galileo, and although that son of Sadler’s Wells gained his own Classic laurels in the Derby (G1) and Irish Derby (G1), and is renowned as a source of Classic stamina, his offspring have been extremely effective in the mile Classics.

His first Classic victory as a sire came via first-crop daughter Nightime in the Irish 1,000 Guineas, since then his winning European Classic milers have included Gleneagles, Frankel, Magician, Roderic O’Connor, Misty For Me, Marvellous and Golden Lilac Gleneagles is a brother to Marvellous who took the Irish 1,000 Guineas on only her third start, but then subsequently failed to stay and was unplaced in the Oaks (G1) and the Irish Oaks (G1) on her only two following starts.

Apparently Gleneagles’s connections believe that he is a specialist miler, and it is unlikely that he will be tried over further in the immediate future.

Gleneagles has what might be close to the current “ultimate” in stallion pedigrees. In addition to being a son of Galileo, his dam, the Storm Cat mare You’resothrilling, is a sister to Giant’s Causeway, who took second in the 2,000 Guineas (G1) and Irish 2,000 Guineas (G1), before embarking on a five-race streak of Group 1 victories earning him a title as European Horse of the Year.

Given that one of those victories came in the 1m2f Juddmonte International Stakes G1), one might have expected Gleneagles to be a middle-distance runner.

A look at the record, however, shows that You’resothrilling had a somewhat different aptitude to her brother, being both more precocious and more speedy.

Successful in the Swordlestown Stud Sprint Stakes (G2) on her second start at two, You’resothrilling added the Cherry Hinton Stakes (G2) later that year, and was also second in the Albany Stakes (G3) at Royal Ascot.

classic review You’resothrilling is also a sister to four stakes-placed horses, including Freud, who took third in the Cork and Orrery Stakes (G3) before going on to a successful stud career as a sire in New York.

She’s also half-sister to Hanky Panky, a Galileo daughter, who produced her best effort in the 6f Ballyogan Stakes (G3).

Gleneagles’s second dam Mariah’s Storm, a daughter of Rahy, was a six-time graded stakes winner and Grade 1-placed in the US and is out of Immense, a graded-winning Roberto mare, a half-sister to the champion

US two-year-old filly, Dearly Precious.

Gleneagles is the fifth stakes winner, and the third Group 1 winner from the 31 starters sired by Galileo out of mares by Storm Cat. The cross is registering 16 per cent stakes winners to starters, against 12 per cent for Galileo with all other mares.

Gleneagles is inbred 3 x 4 to Northern Dancer, but is free of Danehill, the strain for which Galileo has shown such a strong affinity.

(VRC Oaks), Light Fantastic (VRC Australian Guineas) and the international sprint champion and successful sire, Choisir.

Legatissimo’s dam Yummy Mummy is a daughter of Montjeu, who despite a reputation for siring somewhat quirky daughters, is becoming a very successful broodmare sire.

Yummy Mummy’s only win came in a maiden at Sligo, but she’s a sister to Fame And Glory, a horse who won Group 1 events at two, three, four and five, including the Criterium de Saint-Cloud, Irish Derby, Tattersalls Gold Cup, Coronation Stakes and

Ascot Gold Cup. Yummy Mummy is also a three-quarters sister to the Galileo mare Gaze, whose Manduro son Greatwood was stakes placed in England. He has won a pair of black-type events since being exported to Australia.

Yummy Mummy is also closely related to another Galileo daughter in the Lillie Langtry Stakes (G3) scorer Gravitation, who is out of Yummy Mummy’s stakes-placed half-sister Guaranda.

Yummy Mummy is out of Gryada (Shirley Heights), a mare who earned black-type with a third in the Premio Dormello (G3) and a daughter of the German 1,000 Guineas (G2) winner, Grimpola.

She did not produce a stakes winner herself, but has become a very successful foundation mare being ancestress of the Preis Von Europa (G1) and Deutschland Preis (G1) winner Gonbarda (herself dam of European champion older horse Farhh), as well as Gonlargo, a champion three-year-old miler in Germany, and the Group winners Global Dream, Global Thrill, Goathemala and Good Donna.

Makfi will Make them Believe

50-1 shot Qualify (far side) “does” the 1,000 Guineas winner Legatissimo on the line in the Oaks

While the English and Irish Guineas were annexed by the offspring of veteran sires, the French equivalents showcased winners by a pair of young stallions with their first-crop three-year-olds.

In the Poule D’Essai des Poulains (G1), Make Believe took his record to three wins in four starts with a comfortable 3l triumph.

Make Believe’s sire Makfi was sold by Hamdan Al Maktoum for 26,000gns as an unraced two-year-old at the Tattersalls October Sales, but pulled off a 33-1 upset in the 2,000 Guineas.

He then disappointed in the St. James’s Palace Stakes (G1), but rebounded to upset the mighty Goldikova in the Prix Jacques le Marois (G1).

In addition to Make Believe, Makfi’s first northern-hemisphere crop also includes French Listed scorer Cornwallville, and from his first southern-hemisphere crop he is sire of New Zealand juvenile Group 1 winner Marky Mark.

classic review

The Pivotal amd Kingmambo cross registers a stakes winner-tostarter figure that is currently running at about 12 per cent As Makfi can now boast Group 1 winners in both hemispheres from his first crops, the sire is forcing a rapid reassessment by the bloodstock community which had prematurely begun to dismiss him after his first two-year-old northern-hemisphere runners last year.

There was already a pedigree precedent for Make Believe’s success. When she was bred to Makfi’s sire Dubawi, Make Believe’s dam Rosie’s Posy produced Dubawi Heights, whose best effort in England was a third in the Lowther Stakes (G3), but who captured the Gamely Stakes (G1), the Yellow Ribbon Stakes (G1) and the Wilshire Handicap (G3) in the US. Rosie’s Posy’s sire Suave Dancer won the Prix du Jockey-Club (G1) and Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe (G1), but Rosie’s Posy appears to have taken after the speedier elements in the distaff side of the pedigree, her sole win coming over 5f100yds on her debut at two.

Rosie’s Posy’s dam My Branch (Distant Relative) was a sharp two-year-old – she won the Firth of Clyde Stakes and finished second in the Cheveley Park Stakes (G1) – but she trained on well enough to win the Sceptre Stakes, finish third in the Irish 1,000 Guineas and fourth in the 1,000 Guineas.

My Branch produced an even better daughter in Rosie Posy’s half-sister Tante Rose, who was the top older sprint mare in England in 2004, a year in which she ended her career with a victory in the Haydock Sprint Cup (G1).

My Branch is also dam of the Sweet Solera Stakes winner Bay Tree, and is grand-dam of Gothic Dance, successful in the Premio Chiusura (G3) and the top older filly at a mile in Italy last year.

Rosie Posy’s fourth dam Ash Lawn is a halfsister to Royal Palace, winner of the 2,000 Guineas and Derby, and to Glass Slipper, dam of the 1,000 Guineas winner Fairy Footsteps, and St. Leger (G1) winner Light Cavalry.

Make Believe and his three-quarters sister Dubawi Heights are two of the six stakes winners, four of them Group or graded, from 41 starters (15 per cent stakes winners to starters) sired by Dubawi and his sons out of Nijinsky line mares.

There are a couple of extra interesting twists in Make Believe’s pedigree – Makfi’s grand-dam Irish Valley is a half-sister to Green Dancer (sire of Make Believe’s broodmare sire, Suave Dancer), while Makfi’s broodmare sire Green Desert is a product of a Northern Dancer/Sir Gaylord cross, an extended version of which produced Make Believe’s dam.

Haras de Bonneval gets French Guineas results

The Poule D’Essai des Pouliches (G1) went to Ervedya, who came from well to the rear of the 14-horse field to score by a comfortable three-quarters of a length.

She was one of the leaders of her crop last year, winning her first three starts, including the Prix de Cabourg (G3), before ending the year with a third in the Prix Morny (G1) and a second in the Prix Marcel Boussac (G1). On Progressive sire Siyouni: the French Guineas races were good to young sires this year

her only previous start this term, she won the Prix Imprudence (G3).

It proved to be a fantastic French Guineas result for the Aga Khan Studs as Ervedya’s sire Siyouni, like Makfi, stands at Haras de Bonneval, although Makfi had begun his stud career at Tweenhills in England and is on a rotating scheme.

A son of Pivotal and out of a Danehill mare, Siyouni won four of six starts at two, including the Prix Jean-Luc Lagardère (G1) and Prix La Fleche, and also took second in the Prix Robert-Papin (G2) and Prix La Rochette (G3).

He failed to add to his win tally in six starts at three, but did finish second in the Prix Jean Prat (G1) and Prix de Fontainebleau (G3), and third in the Prix du Moulin de Longchamp (G2).

Siyouni made a bright start to his stud career last year – he was leading freshman sire in France – and in addition to Ervedya, he is also sire of the Group winners Bourree and Souvenir Delondres, stakes winner Mocklershill, as well as four black-type placed horses.

Ervedya’s female line has been in the hands of her breeder HH Aga Khan for several generations, although its production prior to Ervedya has been distinctly uninspiring in recent times.

In fact the second in the Prix Vanteaux (G3) achieved by Ervedya’s dam, the King’s Best mare Elva, is the only black-type to appear under the first three generations of Ervedya’s pedigree. The second dam, Marju’s daughter Evora, did win at two, and Elva was her only starter, but the third dam, Eviyrna (The Minstrel), was unplaced, and produced just three minor winners from six starters.

Things improve under the fourth dam Euliya, a Top Ville mare who was bred by the Aga Khan, but she had an entirely Boussac pedigree.

She won the Prix Royallieu (G3), the Prix des Tourelles and the Prix Joubert, and is a half-sister to Erdelistan, whose most prestigious triumph came in the Gran Premio del Jockey Club (G1).

Euliya’s grand-dam Iroma was a half-sister to Locris, a high-class mile-to-1m2f horse and a useful sire in South America, and is out of Ormara, a sister to Boussac’s intensely inbred (2x2 to Tourbillon) Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe heroine, Coronation V. Ervedya herself is an example of the cross of Pivotal and sons with Kingmambo line mares that has also produced Group 1

www.internationalthoroughbred.net

33

classic review winner Regal Parade, and the Group winners Hot Snap and Brazilian Bride. The Pivotal and Kingmambo cross registers a stakes winner-to-starter figure that is currently running at about 12 per cent.

The cross with a Kingmambo mare gives a double Nureyev through Pivotal and through Kingmambo’s dam Miesque, and Siyouni already has ten first crop starters with Nureyev inbreeding, six of them winners, including, in addition to Ervedya, the Listed Prix Yacowlef scorer, Mocklershill.

Pleascach: a grand-daughter of Galileo

Gleneagles completed a Guineas double in the Irish edition, but the Irish 1,000 Guineas produced a new face in Pleascach, who stayed on determinedly to deny the favourite, Found (another by Galileo), by a half length.

This was the third win in five starts for Pleascach, who had captured the 1m2f Blue Wind Stakes (G3) just 11 days earlier.

Although Found was defeated, the race was still a success for the Galileo line as Pleascach is a member of the fourth northern-hemisphere crop sired by Galileo’s undefeated European champion two-year-old colt Teofilo.

He has 33 northern-hemisphere-sired stakes winners to his name from his first four crops, including the Irish Derby (G1) victor Trading Leather, Voleuse de Coeurs, successful in the Irish St. Leger (G1), Parish Hall, winner of the Dewhurst Stakes (G1), Loch Garman, who took the Criterium International (G1) and the Prix Jean Prat (G1) scorer, Havana Gold.

In Australia, Teofilo has six stakes winners in two crops, including the Grade 1 winners Kermadec and Sonntag.

Pleascach is out of the Thunder Gulch mare Toirneach. She is a half-sister to the Panamanian black-type scorer Capomorano, but more significantly is also three-quarters related to Spain, who was by Thunder Gulch out of Drina, a stakes-winning half-sister to the dam of Toirneach. Spain won seven graded stakes events in the US, including the Breeders’ Cup Distaff (G1).

Subsequently, Spain produced the Irish Group winner Plan and Dreamtheimpossible, who took the Listed Flame of Tara Stakes and placed third in the Ascot Fillies’ Mile (G1).

The female line traces to the outstanding US runner and tap-root mare Levee, via Sister Shu, who as her name suggests was a full

www.internationalthoroughbred.net

All came good in the Derby for jockey Frankie Dettori and “Epsom sire” Cape Cross with Golden Horn, who stayed better than had beeen expected by his breeder

sibling to two-time US champion older mare Shuvee.

Levee is ancestress of numerous other major winners, and in Europe they include the Group 1 winners Strategic Choice, Marbye, Fair Mix, Ekraar and Meneval.

Pleascach is one of five stakes winners by Teofilo out of Mr. Prospector-line mares. In this case, Teofilo’s sire Galileo is a Northern Dancer/Mr. Prospector cross, where Pleascach’s broodmare sire Thunder Gulch is a Mr. Prospector/Northern Dancer cross.

She also has a double of His Majesty, combined with that horse’s genetic relative Majestic Light.

Golden Horn found the stamina

If the English and Irish 2,000 Guineas went to a miler by a Derby winner, the Epsom Derby (G1) fell to a colt who outstayed his rivals despite being a son of a miler, and with a pedigree that suggested a mile might be his optimum distance.

Indeed Golden Horn’s prospects of getting the Derby trip were initially considered so slight that he wasn’t originally entered for the Derby. However, after an impressive triumph in the Dante Stakes (G2) – his third win in as many starts, following victories in a maiden at Nottingham at two, and the Fielden Stakes on his debut at three – he was supplemented.

Golden Horn’s sire Cape Cross, a son of Green Desert, had only relatively modest form at two and three, but developed into a top-class older miler taking the Lockinge Stakes (G1) at four, and the Celebration Mile (G2) and Queen Anne Stakes (G2) at five.

Despite being by a sprinter out of a mare by a sprinter – the Cheveley Park Stakes (G1) scorer Park Appeal, a daughter of Ahonoora, a speed-merchant who sired Epsom Derby winner Dr. Devious – and despite his own race-record, Cape Cross has proved very capable of getting top-class middle-distance performers. This is a trait shared by his fellow Green Desert sons, Oasis Dream and Invincible Spirit.

In fact, he’s previously sire of two truly exceptional performers who triumphed in Epsom Classics – Ouija Board and Sea The Stars, Ouija Board going on to produce last year’s Derby winner Australia.

Cape Cross also has another 2015 Classic winner in the shape of Karpino, who took his record to three-for-three in the MehlMulhens-Rennen (G2).

It also proved to be a good 24 hours for Golden Horn’s dam the unraced Fleche D’Or. Her one previous foal, the Champs Elysees filly Eastern Belle, a Listed winner in England last year, registered her first graded race form when second in the New York Stakes (G2), just a few hours after Golden Horn’s triumph.

Fleche D’Or is a daughter of Dubai Destination (Kingmambo), who won the Champagne Stakes (G2) at two, and after being tried over further during a one-race three-year-old season, reverted to a mile to add the Queen Anne Stakes (G1) at four.

Fleche D’Or is out of Nuryana, a mile Listed winner by Nureyev, and is a halfsister to the Coronation Stakes (G1) heroine Rebecca Sharp, who was by Machiavellian, and like Dubai Destination, from the Mr. Prospector sire line.

She is also a sibling to the middle-distance Group scorers Mystic Knight and Hidden Hope, as well as to stakes-placed Nyarhini, who produced the 7f Listed winner Token Of Love to Cape Cross.

Nuryana’s dam Loralane, who was by another miler Habitat, was a minor winner, but she was a three-quarters sister to Habibti, one of the most brilliant sprint fillies of the post-war era, and a half-sister to the 1,000 Guineas winner On The House.

Nuryana was Loralane’s only stakes

“

Golden Horn follows Group winners Moohaajim and Cape Dollar as the third stakes winner by Cape Cross out of a Kingmambo line mare winner, but Loralane is ancestress of several group/graded or stakes winners, the most notable of whom is Kidnapped, who took the South Australian Derby (G1).

Loralane’s dam Lora was a three-quarters sister to another sprint star in the King’s Stand Stakes winner D’Urberville, and to Klairessa, whose daughter is that most famed of New Zealand broodmares, Eight Carat.

The female line goes back to the “Flying Filly” Mumtaz Mahal, via Tessa Gillian, a smart two-year-old and a sister to the important sire, Royal Charger.

With that deeper pedigree it can be seen why Golden Horn’s knowledgable and experienced breeder Anthony Oppenheimer felt that it was not a certainty his colt would stay the Derby trip.

Eyes in the skies... an alternative view of the victorious Frankie Dettori flying dismount

classic review Golden Horn follows Group winners Moohaajim and Cape Dollar as the third stakes winner by Cape Cross out of a Kingmambo line mare, and Cape Cross’s son Sea The Stars has already sired stakes winner Sivoliere on the same cross.

In fact, Sea The Stars himself is also a product of the broader Cape Cross/Mr. Prospector cross Golden Horn represents.

Cape Cross’s sire Green Desert was a stallion bred on a Northern Dancer/Sir Gaylord cross, out of a mare by Ahonoora, a son of Lorenzaccio. Golden Horn’s dam is a Northern Dancer/Sir Gaylord cross, with a second dam by Lorenzaccio.

Qualify: her mother’s daughter

There is even more speed in the sire line of Qualify, who caused a 50-1 upset in the Epsom Oaks (G1) when catching race favourite Legatissimo in the final stride.

She is by reverse shuttler Fastnet Rock, a son of Danehill who was a champion sprinter in Australia, and who never won beyond 6f, notching his most prestigious wins in the Lightning Stakes (G1) over the trip, and the Oakleigh Plate (G1) at five and a half furlongs.

Fastnet Rock has been an outstanding stallion in Australia – he was champion sire there for 2011-2012 – and has been represented by 19 southern-hemisphere Group 1 winners.

He has sired numerous good sprinters and milers in Australia, but has been more versatile as sire than as a racehorse with at least five of his Australia Grade 1 winners scoring in excess of 1m2f.

In Europe, Fastnet Rock has had three crops, including current two-year-olds.

One gets the impression that he’s primarily been mated in the hope that he’d put speed into staying mares, but in reality it appears that it has been the aptitude of Fastnet Rock’s mates that has had the greater influence. Only one of the seven stakes winners from Fastnet Rock’s first two European crops has scored over a distance at less than a mile.

In addition to Qualify, his best European runners include the Derrinstown Stud Derby Trial (G3) scorer Fascinating Rock, La Saldana, who took the Schwarzgold Rennen (G3), and Diamondsandrubies, winner of the Cheshire Oaks (G1), and fourth in this year’s Oaks (G1).

There is certainly no lack of stamina in the distaff side of Qualify’s pedigree, her dam Perihelion (Galileo) gained black-type with a

www.internationalthoroughbred.net

35

classic review second in the Park Hill Stakes (G2) at 1m6f.

Perihelion has actually produced a previous Oaks winner, of a sort – her Duke Of Marmalade daughter Saltanat, a threequarters-sister to Qualify, won the Ceska Oaks in Czechoslovakia, and also finished second in that country’s St. Leger.

Qualify’s grand-dam was also stoutlybred being by another Epsom Derby hero, The Minstrel, out of Epsom Oaks runner-up Media Luna.

Bred to Alleged, Media Luna produced Eva Luna, who not only won the Park Hill Stakes (G3), but also produced four other stakes winners headed by Brian Boru, who took the St. Leger (G1) and Racing Post Trophy (G1), and Sea Moon, a Group/Grade 2 winner in England and Australia, who was also runnerup in the Breeders’ Cup Turf (G1).

Brian Boru was by Sadler’s Wells, and Sea Moon by that horse’s son Beat Hollow, so both were bred very similarly to Perihelion.

Media Luna is also dam of the stakes winning and graded-placed Blushing Groom filly Rougeur, herself dam of a Classic performer in the Kentucky Oaks (G1) victress Flute.

Just like Golden Horn, in direct female line, Qualify traces to a mare whose name is enshrined in history.

In Qualify’s case this is the “peerless” Pretty Polly, winner of 22 of her 24 starts, including the 1904 renewal of the Oaks.

Qualify goes back to Pretty Polly via her sixth dam Lady Sybil, a three-quarters sister to Nearctic, and we’ll note that Nearctic’s son Northern Dancer appears four times in the first five generations of Qualify’s pedigree, two of those crosses coming through the three-quarters brothers Nijinsky and The Minstrel.

The other two sources are in Fastnet Rock’s male line, via Danehill and Danzig, and in Qualify’s broodmare sire line, via Galileo’s sire Sadler’s Wells.

The success of the Galileo/Danehill cross has been long established through horses such as Frankel, Teofilo, Intello, Roderic O’Connor, Maybe, Noble Mission and Golden Lilac.

For Fastnet Rock, reversing it has also paid dividends, producing four stakes winners from only 16 starters, among them Magicool, who took the Queensland Derby (G1) the day after Qualify’s Epsom triumph.

Fastnet Rock has also sired four stakes winners out of mares by Sadler’s Wells

36

www.internationalthoroughbred.net

“

Only one of the seven stakes winners from Fastnet Rock’s first two European crops has scored over a distance at less than a mile himself – the Grade 1 winner First Seal out of a mare by Sadler’s Wells grandson Scenic, and the group winner La Saldana out of a mare by Sadler’s Wells grandson, Singspiel.

Dubawi line French Classic double

With the French 2,000 Guineas having gone to Make Believe by Makfi, the sire line completed a Classic double when the Prix du Jockey-Club (G1) went to the Poule D’Essai des Poulains runner-up New Bay, a son of Makfi’s sire, Dubawi.

New Bay is the 12th Group or Grade 1 winner from the first six northernhemisphere crops sired by Dubawi, who has a total of 74 stakes winners and 48 Group/ Graded winners from those crops.

He was a top-class miler who didn’t quite get home when third in the Epsom Derby, and his best offspring have been effective anywhere from a mile to a 1m4f. In addition to New Bay and Makfi (who himself gained a Classic score in the 2,000 Guineas), they include another 2,000 Guineas winner in Night Of Thunder, a pair of Dubai World Cup (G1) winners in Prince Bishop and Monterosso, the three-time Group 1winner Al Kazeem, Walpark, successful in the the Deutsches Derby (G1), Poet’s Voice, who took the Queen Elizabeth II Stakes (G1), and Hong Kong star Lucky Nine.

Dubawi has also sired three shuttle crops in Australia, and they have produced 20 individual stakes winners – 13 graded, and six Grade 1.

New Bay’s dam Cinnamon Bay won the Listed Prix d’Angerville at a mile. She is a three-quarters sister to Zenda, winner of the Poule D’Essai des Pouliches and dam of last year’s star miler Kingman, both are by Zamindar and out of half-sisters.

Cinnamon Bay’s dam Trellis Bay is a stakes-placed daughter of Sadler’s Wells, and is also dam of the Group 2-winning and Group 1-placed Bellamy Cay.

Trellis Bay is also a sister to black-type producer Spanish Wells and to Coraline, dam of a trio of Group winners, including the Prix du Cadran (G1) scorer Reefscape.

She is also half-sister to a notable pair of Dancing Brave siblings in Wemyss Bight and Hope.

Wemyss Bight took the Irish Oaks (G1), and to the cover of Sadler’s Wells produced Trellis Bay’s three-quarters brother Beat Hollow, successful in the Arlington Million (G1), Woodford Reserve Turf Classic (G1), Manhattan Handicap (G1) and Grand Prix de Paris (G1).

Hope failed to win, but is dam of a trio of black-type winners, including Zenda, and the important European sire, Oasis Dream.

Bahamian, the third dam of New Bay, won the Lingfield Oaks Trial, and was three-times Group placed.

She owned a distinctly Classic pedigree being a daughter of Mill Reef and Sorbus.

She lacked a black-type win on her catalogue page, but had crossed the line first in the Irish Oaks (G1) before being demoted to second by the stewards. She also finished second in the Irish 1,000 Guineas, the Yorkshire Oaks and Irish St. Leger.

In general, we find that crossing a stallion back over mares from his own sire line produces below-opportunity results, but in the case of Dubawi, a great-grandson of Mr. Prospector (via Dubai Millennium and Seeking the Gold), it has paid dividends, perhaps because Dubawi is sufficiently genetically removed that he’s “his own man” rather than just “a Mr. Prospector line horse” That theory is given some credibility by the statistics – there is just one stakes winner from 22 starters by Dubawi out of mares by sons of Mr. Prospector (the Australian Group 1 winner Shamal Wind), but taking the cross one generation further back, there are ten stakes winners, seven Group or Graded, from only 36 starters by Dubawi out of mares by grandsons of Mr. Prospector.

There are distinct similarities between both halves of New Bay’s pedigree: Dubawi’s sire is a Mr. Prospector/Northern Dancer cross, and his dam is a Mill Reef/Northern Dancer cross, and when we turn to Cinnamon Bay, we see she is a Mr. Prospector/Northern Dancer cross.

La Reine Treve The awesome filly has returned to racecourse action looking better than ever, reports an impressed Jocelyn de Moubray

I

Will Criquette Head receive the Arc trophy for a third year in succession this autumn? Treve’s start to the 2015 season gives every indication that Madame Head can make it three in a row

t may be too early to know how the Classic crop compares, but there can be little doubt that the three leading older horses in Europe were all seen at their best in France this spring. “The Queen Treve”, as Al Shaqab Racing’s dual Arc de Triomphe winner is now called in the French racing press, returned at Saint-Cloud on May 29 and put up probably the second-best performance of her already astonishing career.

The Group 2 Prix Corrida, run over 1m2f, attracted a field worthy of a Group 1. The eight runners included Treve as well as two other Group 1 winners in the Prix de l’Opera winner We Are and the Preis der Diana winner Feodora and this trio had to give 4lb to the high-class Group winners Mayhem, Siljan’s Saga, All At Sea and Cocktail Queen.

The race was a procession rather than a contest and, after settling beautifully in midfield, Treve and her jockey Thierry Jarnet quickened from a tight position in midstraight and then sauntered away from their rivals to win eased down by 4l.

It was close behind as We Are got up in the final strides to take second from Mayhem with Feodora, running a fantastic first race for her new connections Katsumi Yoshida and trainer André Fabre, a length further away in fourth. The beaten horses will in all likelihood dominate the best middle-distances races for fillies and mares throughout the remainder of the season, while if she remains in this form, Treve is surely unbeatable, however good the three-year-olds turn out to be.

An elated trainer Criquette Head confirmed after the race that “La Reine Treve” was back to her best and the daughter of Motivator looks set to be as superior to this year’s three-yearolds as she was to those of 2014 and 2013.

Cirrus Des Aigles is perhaps the only horse in training who might be able to beat Treve, as he did in the Ganay in 2014, but their paths are unlikely to cross again confirmed the excellence he had displayed at Meydan with victory in the 1m1f Group 1 Prix d’Ispahan at Longchamp in May and then at Royal Ascot.

It was little more than an exercise gallop for the gelded son of Singspiel, once it was obvious that Cirrus Des Aigles was seriously hampered by the firm ground and a broken shoe. Solow coasted home a length and a half and 2l ahead of Gailo Chop and Sparkling Beam.

The nine-year-old Cirrus Des Aigles had shown earlier in the year in the Group 1 Prix Ganay over 1m2f at Longchamp that he is still

capable of beating the best when conditions are right and he recorded his sixth Group 1 victory when leading all the way to defeat Al Kazeem and Fate.

Cirrus Des Aigles is perhaps the only horse in training who might be able to beat Treve, as he did in the Ganay in 2014, but their paths are unlikely to cross again – Treve will go for the Vermeille and the Arc again, while Cirrus Des Aigles is barred from taking part in both.

Two three-year-olds, who did not take part in the Classic races but who showed enough when winning Group 2 races to suggest they

will challenge the best of their generation later in the year, are Impassable and Ampere.

The Wertheimer brothers’ Invincible Spirit filly Impassable was well beaten on both her starts at two and looked to be just an ordinary winner until May when the Carlos Laffon Parias-trained filly suddenly began to improve.

At the beginning of the month she beat the subsequent Group 1-placed filly Weekela at Chantilly and then displayed a spectacular turn of foot to catch La Berma and win the Group 2 Prix de Sandringham over a mile on the same track.

The Galileo colt Ampere didn’t race at two, but is unbeaten in two starts this year and won the Group 2 Prix Hocquart over 1m3f for the Haras de Saint Pair and trainer André Fabre beating Cape Clear Island, who looked unlucky not to be placed in the Jockey-Club.

The son of the multiple Grade 1 winner Amorama (Sri Pekan) is being aimed at major targets in the autumn.

Adlerflug colt can make his way right to the very top

G

ermany’s leading older horse, Gestüt Schlenderhan’s Ito, has some way to go before getting to become the best in Europe, but he looks to be on the path to do so after two easy wins on his only starts at four.

The son of Adlerflug and the Preis der Diana winner Iota has five wins from seven career starts and, aside from one poor run at Baden-Baden last September, has always looked to be a horse of great promise.

Ito made all the running in the Group 2 Grosser Preis der Badischen Unternehmer at Baden-Baden in early June and came away from the field to win unchallenged by 4l from Nicolosio, a French Listed winner and Group performer. On this form the Jean Pierre Carvalho-trained colt is ready for international competition.

Ito is from the first crop of the German Derby winner Adlerflug, who stands at Gestüt Harzburg. From only around 70 foals in his first two crops the son of In The Wings has made a more than promising start as he has also produced the French Group winner Wunder, Spend The Cash, who was third in the Group 2 behind Ito, and the three-year-old colt Nordic Flight, the winner of the Listed Baden-Baden Derby Trial.

Adlerflug has the unusual distinction of winning two Group 1 races by 7l, the Deutsches Derby and then the Deutschland Preis as a fouryear-old. He was then third in the Prix Ganay, only a length behind Vision d’Etat, on his only start at five.

Adlerflug’s second dam Alya is a half-sister to Allegretta, the dam of the brilliant mare Urban Sea. The Deutsches Derby will be run in early July and at the time of writing looked to be dominated by two Gestüt Fährhof-bred colts

both trained by Andreas Wohler – Quasillo, a son of Sea The Stars who runs in the stud’s colours, and Karpino. He is a son of Cape Cross and is now owned by Qatar Racing, Quasillo didn’t race at two and after beating another leading Derby candidate, the Monsun colt Shimrano on his debut in Munich in April, won a Group 3 at Hanover without coming off the bridle.

Karpino, who is out of a full-sister to the St Leger winner Milan, is unbeaten in three starts and as a three-year-old has won a Group 3 and the Muhl-Melhens-Rennen easily. Both colts are likely to be suited to stepping up to 1m4f.

The Preis der Diana is not run until early August and at this stage looks to be more open. The leading contenders include the French Group winner Olorda, a daughter of Lord Of England, who was third in the Group 1 Prix Saint Alary, and the Dylan Thomas filly Nightflower, the winner of the Diana Trial in Berlin.

Other possibilities include Gestüt Itlingen’s Lovelyn, a daughter of Tiger Hill who won the Oaks d’Italia getting up in the final strides having been under pressure the whole way up Milan’s long straight, and then two Gestüt Rottgen home-bred fillies – Anna Katharina, who finished a close second to the colt Nordic Flight in the BadenBaden Derby Trial, and Wild Motion. She is a Motivator half-sister to the Group 2 winner Wild Coco, and to the stakes performers Weltmacht, Wilddrossel and Wild Silva and she won her only start to date at Krefeld.

This Krefeld maiden run over 1m2f in mid-May with €3,000 to the winner attracted a remarkable field as the second, Salve Estelle, is a Dansili filly out of the Diana winner Salve Regina, while the third was Amazona, a daughter of Dubawi and another German Oaks winner Amarette.

I

T had looked a near impossible challenge. In the 37 years since Affirmed had swept the 1978 Triple Crown, 13 horses have lined up in the Belmont Stakes with wins in the Kentucky Derby and Preakness Stakes only to find the final leg of the coveted series a step too far, writes Nancy Sexton.

The Triple Crown has always been a demanding programme, not just because it requires a consistent level of brilliance in three races up to 1m4f staged over just five weeks, but also that it often comes off the back of a gruelling preparation for the Kentucky Derby.

In an era where the average American thoroughbred does not relish going further than 1m2f and relies heavily on Lasix, you would be forgiven for thinking that the days of an American Triple Crown winner were behind us.

Of course, Ahmed Zayat’s home-bred American Pharoah, who fulfilled the hopes of US racing by finally breaking the Triple Crown drought, is far from being the

“

For once, US racing was in the news for the right reasons

History ahead of him: American Pharoah wins the Kentucky Derby and sets his Triple Crown course

average thoroughbred.

The suspicion was there last September when trainer Bob Baffert decided to let him break his maiden in the Del Mar Futurity on only his second start. Another impressive victory in the FrontRunner Stakes at Santa Anita followed and although a minor 11th hour injury prevented his participation in

The sloppy surface at Pimlico did not stop the adapatable son of Pioneerof The Nile in the Preaknesss

Breeders’ Cup Juvenile, so visually impressive were his two Grade 1 victories that he ended the year as America’s champion juvenile colt.

His supporters have had no cause to regret their faith since then. Two bloodless wins in the Rebel Stakes and Arkansas Derby – when Victor Espinoza only had to shake the reins to win by 8l – preceded the Kentucky Derby, in which he went off the 29-10 favourite, despite having to contend with an outside draw of 15.

Breaking sharply from his inside draw of two, Dortmund set the pace under Martin Garcia narrowly ahead of his old Californian foe Firing Line. American Pharoah pressed the leading pair around the home turn and after a sustained tussle drew away to win by a length and hand Zayat his first Kentucky Derby following the runner-up efforts of Pioneerof The Nile – American Pharoah’s sire – and Nehro.

Firing Line, one of just 45 three-year-olds from the first crop of Spendthrift Farm’s Line Of David, ran second, 2l ahead of Dortmund, who held on for third.

Visually, the Kentucky Derby was not an easy victory for American Pharoah.

Espinoza hit the colt 32 times in the run for the line and was duly criticised. Yet it left no lasting impression – two weeks later, the horse wheeled back into action at Pimlico where he turned the Preakness Stakes into a procession, scoring by 7l from Tale Of Verve.

The procession moved on to the Belmont.

The Triple Crown has been in agonisingly

Coolmore reportedly snapped up the stud rights to American Pharoah early in the year – we are only half way into the season and the deal couldn’t look any stronger close reach on several occasions over the past 20 years and Baffert came close himself through Real Quiet and Silver Charm in 1997 and 1998. Only last year, there was hope behind California Chrome, who lined up at Belmont as the authoritative winner of the Kentucky Derby and Preakness Stakes only to be undone by the stamina-laden trip.

On paper, American Pharoah’s ability to get 1m4f was far from cut and dried. On one hand, he is a grandson of Empire Maker, who ended Funny Cide’s own Triple Crown hopes by taking the Belmont Stakes in 2003. He hails from the Fappiano sire line, which has also been responsible for Belmont winners Victory Gallop, Birdstone and Summer Bird.

However, any encouragement from his sire line must have been tempered by his female family.

His dam Littleprincessemma showed little in two starts up to 6f for Zayat and her first foal, the Maimonides colt Xixixi, is a two-time minor winner over 6f. She is a daughter of Yankee Gentleman, a Listed winner over 6f

by Storm Cat and subsequent source of speed (albeit at a minor level), and a half-sister to Storm Wolf, a Grade 2 winner over 7f, and Misty Rosette, a Grade 3 winner over 6f.

Yet in the event, supporters needn’t have worried. Settled in front by Espinoza, American Pharoah loped along, ears flicking back and forth, before Kentucky Oaks winner Lovely Maria

cruising clear to score by five-and-a-half lengths in a time of 2m26.65sec.

Frosted, the Kentucky Derby fourth, momentarily loomed as a threat and finished well clear of the third, Keen Ice. Not only was it the sixth fastest Belmont Stakes in history, but American Pharoah ran the final quarter mile in 24.32sec, faster than even Secretariat, whose 31l win in 1973 has ensured he remains the benchmark by which all American stars have since been compared.

A

s the undisputed leader among the threeyear-olds, the question is now whether American Pharoah can repeat his domination against older horses.

But, for now, fans are revelling in his title as Triple Crown champion. His Belmont victory made it on to the front pages of a number of national publications, while the colt himself made an appearance on NBC’s Today show. For once, US racing was in the news for the right reasons.

Thanks to American Pharoah’s exploits his sire, WinStar Farm’s Pioneerof The Nile, is currently one of the year’s top five US stallions.

American Pharoah is the sole Grade 1 winner from Pioneerof The Nile’s first two crops, which is a fitting development seeing as Zayat also bred and raced the stallion.

Zayat also campaigned one of his first-crop standouts, Grade 2 winner Jojo Warrior.

Pioneerof The Nile stood this season for $60,000, a marked increase on the $15,000 he commanded when he shifted to WinStar Farm from Vinery in 2013 – and could well command six figures in 2016. He is the dominant leader

among the third-crop sires – although that admittedly is a particularly underwhelming group overall – and therefore a celebrated representative of his sire Empire Maker, who was exported to stand in Japan in late 2010.

At the time of his export, Empire Maker had sired just nine Graded stakes winners – albeit five at Grade 1 level – from four goodsized crops of regally bred foals. Particularly well supported by his breeder Juddmonte Farms, the son of Unbridled did little to reward their hopes; to date, Juddmonte have bred just five stakes winners by the stallion, despite sending him mares of the quality of Hasili, Intercontinental and Stellara.

However, since Empire Maker departed Kentucky, his overall record has swelled to 29 Group or Graded stakes winners. By contrast, at the time of writing his first Japanese crop of three-year-olds contains 31 winners from 138 runners. Perhaps it won’t be long until he’s back on Kentucky soil.

American Pharoah’s own stud career is already assured to commence at Ashford Stud in Kentucky. Coolmore has made a point of adding American champion juvenile colts to their roster in recent years – namely Lookin’ At Lucky, Uncle Mo, Hansen and Shanghai Bobby. Coolmore reportedly snapped up the stud rights to American Pharoah early in the year – we are only half way into the season and the deal couldn’t look any stronger.

While Zayat had the foresight to retain American Pharoah for $300,000 as a yearling, another winner in this story is Summer Wind Farm.

Farm owners Frank and Jane Lyons paid $2.1 million for the colt’s dam, Littleprincessemma at last year’s FasigTipton November Sale, and she subsequently foaled a brother to American Pharoah.

Then there is Brereton Jones of Airdrie Farm in Kentucky, the breeder of Littleprincessemma who once also stood her sire Yankee Gentleman.

In what was a great Derby weekend for Jones, the former Kentucky governor and his trainer Larry Jones also celebrated their third Kentucky Oaks win together within just seven years when Lovely Maria, a daughter of young Airdrie stallion Majesticperfection, ran out the easy winner of this year’s renewal.

Acquired privately by Jones after failing to sell for $5,000 as a foal, Lovely Maria is one of eight stakes horses from the first crop of Majesticperfection, yet another exciting son of Harlan’s Holiday after Into Mischief.

The number of horses in training through 2014 for owner Godolphin is easily the highest seen in the periods we have looked at (2009 and 2004) and reveals just how important patronage from Dubai is to British racing.

british owners from 2004), Godolphin has taken itself to the top of the table numerically with over 600 horses in training, compared to 362 in 2009 and just 287 in 2004.

The continued dominance of Newmarket as a training centre is also clearly identified with the top seven numerical owners in 2014 listing their base as in Suffolk. The location bisas of Newmarket is a unchanged trend throughout the years examined.

The rise of Qatar Racing Ltd as a force in British racing has been rapid – despite having only been first registered as an owner in 2011, the ownership vehicle listed 173 horses in training though 2014, was a top four owner numverically and you can bet the figures have increased again for 2015.

In the top ten, Cheveley Park Stud appears as the only domestic Flat racing concern and its numbers have remained constant.

The rapid growth of Bloomfields as a NH entity mirrors that of Qatar’s development in the Flat sphere, the John Ferguson-training vehicle now being the predominate domestic NH owner.

Middleham Park is becoming a significantly important player Our top 50 had 4,725 ownership concerns last year – around 40 per cent of the total number of horses in training (a slightly skewed stat remembering that this table includes shares in horses as total entities) – just 700-odd more than in 2004. The recent growth of Godolphin almost by itself taking up most of that increase.

The development of Middleham Park Racing – active purchasers at the yearling and horse in training sales, is identified by the multiple ownership of Tim Palin and Church as the partnership’s registered owners.

Middleham Park is becoming a significantly important player and is producing an interesting development in the concept of syndicate-managed, joint ownership.

Trainers, such as Tim Easterby (Habton Farms), Mick Channon, Brian Ellison, Richard Fahey all known for buying strongly at the yearling sales, trade stock or have stud concerns of their own, all have significant numbers of horses listed under their names at some point through the year.

Although these figures are total owned throughout the year, and lists shares and legs as one ownership, the tables reveal just how much investment racehorse trainers need to make on an annual basis into horses in their yards, possibly why it is so difficult for trainers to make a profit, and how skewed British racing is for this to be a necessity.

It probably also identifies that for trainers to make money at their business they need to trade horses and aim to make profit on sales.

Of course, there are names that have come and gone through the years as owners have increased or decreased their strings and of course there are some sad losses.

The 2004 table reveals just what an effect Maktoum Al Maktoum’s death had in 2006, while 2004 was the year that we lost Robert Sangster and his hugely important impact on the development of the British racing.

Why do people own racehorses?

And why do some have their horses trained on the other side of the world...?

Paul Haigh discusses the reasons behind international ownership in a chat with Red Cadeaux’s owner Ronnie Arculli

S

aying that Ronald Arculli is a prominent Hong Kong citizen is a bit like saying a whale is quite a large animal.

The Hon. Ronald Joseph Arculli, GBM, GBS, CVO, OBE, a Catholic of Indian/ Chinese descent, was born January 2, 1939.

He is a former member of the Hong Kong Executive Council; a senior partner in King, Wood, Mallesons, one of the world’s biggest law firms; the only person ever to have been chairman of both the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and of Hong Kong’s most prestigious club, The Hong Kong Jockey Club (HKJC). He is, in short, a very big fish in the very big pond that is Hong Kong – and has been for as long as most people can remember.

He is also, more importantly for readers of International Thoroughbred, the man who owns Red Cadeaux as well as a long list of lesser “Reds” who have played notable roles in history since. As they say in some parts of the racing world, since God’s dog was a pup.

Ronnie, as he likes to be called, has a fund of racing memory in many countries dating back to the 1950s.

He is therefore one of the best people on earth to ask an intriguing question central to this sport: “What makes people who can do so spend their money on owning racehorses?”

First though, a dip into one or two of those racing memories which, in themselves perhaps, give answers to this question that even the most eloquent might find difficult to answer neatly.

“I actually grew up in the Happy Valley area and my maternal grandfather used to own horses, but I didn’t

start taking a really active interest in racing until I was studying in London in 1959,” he recalls. “At law school (Lincoln’s Inn) I had close friends who were very sports orientated – racing and football in particular – and after a while I used to have the odd flutter. I enjoyed picking outsiders whom I thought had a chance.

“I came back and started practising in Hong Kong and in 1961 applied for membership in the Club [the HKJC] only to be turned down! They said that at the age of 22 I was not yet a responsible enough person to be a member”.

This amused him then and still does: “What they were saying in effect was that I was a responsible enough person to be defending people charged with murder, but not responsible enough for membership of the Hong Kong Jockey Club!

“In 1965 they relented Ronnie Arculli: “a very big fish in the very big pond of Hong Kong”

River Verdon didn’t make an impact in the US, but that foray whet my appetite for overseas racing

The one who started it all off and whose Hong Kong records have yet to be eclipsed, River Verdon

though, and I joined with my friend Oswald Chung and one other. Ossie and I immediately took up the idea of owning in partnership and over the years we owned quite a few horses in England as well as in Hong Kong.

Well… let’s fast forward a little – we owned a few good horses and then in the 1990s we got one of the most successful horses in Hong Kong racing history”.

River Verdon, whose stuffed remains still stand in the Happy Valley racecourse museum, was the first, and is still the only, horse ever to win the Hong Kong Triple Crown of Derby, Hong Kong Gold Cup and Champions and Chater Cup. He was also the first horse trained in Hong Kong, where racing only turned professional in the 1970s, thought to be worthy of taking on the stars of other more established and developed of the world’s racing jurisdictions.

“He was a horse I bred by Be My Native out of a Welsh Pageant mare Tujenu. I owned 25 per cent, another chap owned 25 per cent and Ossie owned 50 per cent. Then the third partner said ‘You can have this

56

one’, so I bought him out,” smiles Arculli.

“We sent the horse to Robert Armstrong at Newmarket as a yearling, then brought him over here to Hong Kong as a two-year-old. It was Ossie’s choice to call him River Verdon after a river he liked in France.

“He was a dark grey, almost black horse,” Arculli recalls affectionately. “He got into a little bit of trouble as a two-year-old when he cut his mouth on a hay basket, so his debut as a three-year-old was delayed.

“When he did run, he came out of the gates so slowly he was almost tailed off, but then he just blitzed the entire field at Happy Valley and won as he liked. He went on to win six in a row that year. The following year he won the Derby [the HK Derby is a race for four-yearolds]. And by that time, Ossie had become chairman of the Club.

“Verdon went on to win 16 races altogether including the Champions and Chater four times and the Hong

Kong Gold Cup three times”.

But Arculli had always wanted to own a Hong Kong-trained horse capable of competing with the best overseas.

“In those days we had a lot to learn in Hong Kong” he reminds himself, “but we wanted to take the others on, so we sent River Verdon to Chicago for the Arlington Million because his sire had run in that race”. (The Million also fits well with the Hong Kong summer break).

“River Verdon didn’t make an impact in the US, but that foray whet my appetite for overseas racing and my cousin who was living in Australia at the time said, ‘Ronnie, you must come and see the Melbourne Cup. It is the most amazing race in the world. You won’t believe the attention it gets and how it really is the race that stops the nation’.

“So we decided River Verdon would go to Melbourne, but first the Club had to put on a special race over 2,500m to enable him to qualify and I’m afraid it cost the Club around HK$5 million to do so because of the

guaranteed payout rule.

“At Flemington he ran well for 2,800 of the 3,000 metres. Then his stamina ran out completely and he finished either last or second last. But Australia did reexamine their conditions for entry and I’d like to think Verdon’s attempt was a pioneering one that started the race on the road to where it is today.”

T

he story fast-forwards from that debut mission to the 21st century.

“Now after many years there is a sequel to it because I’ve just bought a horse who’s closely related to River Verdon at the Craven Breeze Up Sales,” reports the owner. “I told Charlie [Gordon-Watson who’s been his bloodstock agent for many years] that I wanted to make an emotional purchase. He said he liked him and we got him for 90,000gns.

“Now I’m thinking of bringing him to Hong Kong. I don’t suppose he’ll be able to emulate Verdon, but it will

Red Clubs: won the Sprint Cup (G1) for Arculli. Sadly, he died just two seasons into a promising stud career

It is absolutely not an ego trip in any way whatsoever. It’s the fun. It’s the enjoyment of the friendships... those are the motivations that never go away be good to give him a try.

“I’ve always had a passion for international racing and River Verdon opened my eyes to what might be possible if you had the right horse.”

So the relatively tiny prize-money in Britain wasn’t a major contributor to that decision?

“No. I know the European racing scene is high cost, but the rewards of winding up with a champion are so high that they make up for it if that’s your dream.

“And that’s the thing that’s always driven me along.

You’ve got to have that passion, that dream that one day you’ll have a great champion. Over the years I’ve been reasonably lucky with both people and horses. I’ve been associated with some very good examples of both.”

Is that luck or judgement?

“A bit of both perhaps,” he grins.

It would be disingenuous to pretend not to notice that wealth too has to play a part?

“Well, it’s very difficult to compete at the sales these days with some of the big owners.”

You’d need a country with an oil well?

“Several oil wells!” he corrects He came close to the sort of champion he dreams of in Red Clubs, winner of the Group 1 Haydock Sprint Cup whom he sold to stand at stud, but whose career as a stallion sadly lasted only two years.

Arculli has never quite reached the pinnacle that he seeks – and perhaps all owners seek – in the form of

58

the kind who can prowl the earth almost without fear of defeat. He is, however, now the owner of one who is, by almost any measurement, the most popular racehorse on earth. So that maybe is some compensation.

Red Cadeaux is not the greatest horse alive. Even his most devoted fans in Australia, Japan, Hong Kong and elsewhere know that. But he is an unquestionable phenomenon, a globetrotter who has left his homeland of England no less than 26 times and, primarily through a second in the Dubai World Cup and three second places in the world’s toughest handicap, has accumulated more prize-money than any other horse – and yes, that does include Frankel – ever trained in Britain.

His owner seems to feel a different kind of affection for this magnificent chestnut warrior from the kind he reserves for what is obviously his first great equine love, River Verdon.

“We keep thinking his career must be nearly over. He keeps coming back, but he must be getting near the end now,” he says simply.

What with the difficulty of matching the almost almost infinite spending power of some rivals at the sales and perhaps the sheer effort of going to see them run, Arculli thinks that it may soon be time to cut down on his own string of horses around the world, but you don’t get the impression he feels any urgency to do so.

How much does Red Cadeaux, now with nearly £5 million to his name in terms of prize-money, contribute to his owner’s ownership expenses?

“Oh, almost all of it” he says, perhaps as a joke.

And so to the big question: what makes a man with so much to do and so much done outside racing want to spend money on horses? Is it at least partly ego driven?

“No”, he doesn’t like that at all. “It is absolutely not an ego trip in any way whatsoever. It’s the fun. It’s the enjoyment of the friendships. And it’s the desire to one day have a great international champion. Those are the motivations that never go away.”

the art market

Art flying high O

Last year was a record-breaker for the art market, and 2015 has kicked off in the same vein nce again the strong year enjoyed in the thoroughbred industry was replicated in the world of high-end art. In fact, it was another record-achieving year for the art market – and there is no sign of things slowing down with two records already broken in 2015.

When Will You Marry by Paul Gauguin

www.internationalthoroughbred.net

This February, an anonymous buyer spent $300 million (£197 million), a record sum spent on a piece of art, on the private purchase of When Will You Marry, a 1892 oil painting by Paul Gauguin. It is believed that Qatari interests, posssibly the Qatar Museum, is behind the purchase.

In May, the record price at auction was shattered by the sale of Picasso’s Women Of Algiers, sold at the Christie’s New York Sale entitled “Looking Forward to the Past of Impressionist, Modern and Contemporary Art.” The painting sold for $179.3 million (£115 million) – and again was purchased anonymously.

It is the second time that Christie’s has sold this particular Picasso painting; in 1997, it was offered by the celebrated Ganz collection and sold for $31.9 million against an estimate of $10-12 million. In eight years, it’s value has increased just over five and a half times.

The previous record for any work of art sold at auction was $142.4 million, also at Christie’s New York, set in 2013 for Francis Bacon’s Three Studies of Lucian Freud, while the previous best price given for a work by Picasso was $106 million for Nude, Green Leaves and Bust (1932), at Christie’s New York in May 2010.

At that same sale as the Picasso’s record breaker, Alberto Giacometti’s life-sized sculpture Pointing Man set a new record for a piece of sculpture sold when it fetched $141.3 million (£90 million), beating the previous best by $7 million.

Eight other artist records were set at the “Looking Forward to the Past of Impressionist, Modern and Contemporary Art” sale.

Continuing trends

The strong prices are a continuation of a theme from 2014, and in Artprice’s The Art Market in 2014, president Thierry Ehrmann said: “The global fine art market posted a new record level of activity in 2014 with a total auction turnover of $15.2 billion, up 26 per cent compared with 2013 and more than 300 per cent compared with a decade earlier.

“This growth was largely driven by the Chinese market and the Chinese economy, but also by an intensification of the ultrahigh end segment of the western art market.”

That ultra-high end art market is headed by an elite of US, European and Asian investors, as well as by a growing number of players from the Middle East and Latin America.

the art market At the end of 2013, the global population of High Net Worth Individuals (HNWIs) (those with investable wealth greater than $1 million) was approximately 13.7 million, advancing 15 per cent on the previous year. Their combined wealth grew by 14 per cent to $53 trillion.

The most popular investments for HNWIs in 2014 were jewellery, gems and watches, while antiques and collectibles was the second-most popular segment worldwide at 21 per cent. Art was ranked third with a 17 per cent share of spend. In total, 70 per cent of all dealer sales in 2014 were to private collectors.

With a combination of the geographical expansion of the market, the growth of the internet, the ongoing development of the major auction houses’ distribution networks, historically low interest rates, the perception that the acquisition of art is a status symbol, the increasing media interest in art, not to mention the pure love of art itself… all the conditions existing to keep prices on the art market high, or push them even higher.

the emergence of the “museum industry” as a genuine segment of economic activity.

More new museums were created between 2000 and 2015 than during the entire 19th and

20th centuries. In recent years and particularly in the Greater Asia region, the rate of new museum openings is one per day, and the segment is regularly referred to as the museum

driving factors behind the spectacular growth of the art market. As a general rule, a museum needs a minimum of 3,000 to 4,000 museum quality works to be credible – and that requires a high level of purchase.

With a number of major projects under development on different continents around the world, museum-fuelled demand for art is likely to drive the art market upwards for a long time to come.

Buyers are increasingly willing to invest in works by their contemporaries, including young artists – sometimes those even under 30 results increased in volume, they also grew in intensity: 116 works sold above $10 million around the world in 2014, up more than 500 per cent versus 10 years earlier – in 2005 there were only 18.

Most popular artists in 2014

Of the most sought-after signatures, two Chinese and eight Western artists share the 2014 Top 10, with Andy Warhol’s sales of $569 million the highest annual total ever recorded by any artist.

The American Pop Art star left Pablo Picasso – a result that now looks as though it will be rectified this year – a long way behind with a total of $375 million for 2014 sales, followed by Francis Bacon with $270 million (+$74 million compared with 2013), Gerhard Richter with $254 million, Mark Rothko with $249 million and Claude Monet in sixth place with $222 million.

The Chinese artist Qi Baishi was in seventh place with $206 million, ahead of Alberto Giacometti on $205 million and Zhang Daqian with $193 million (vs. $291 million in 2013). The ranking closes with the US artist Jeff Koons, who totalled more than $149 million.

Of the 10 artists listed in the ranking, two are living artists, reflecting a certain rejuvenation of the art market. Buyers are increasingly willing to invest in works by their contemporaries, including young artists – sometimes under 30.

The auction prices of the new stars of the contemporary sector can easily double within two or three years.

Internet buyers

In its lower echelons, investment below £10,000, the art market is expanding every year, largely driven by the exponential development of online sales.

Client portfolios around the world are growing rapidly; the top auction companies are receiving applications to participate in online auction sales from nearly 200 countries, mainly thanks to mobile internet.

The new “mobile internet” economic model is a development that has received a massive boost from the very recent arrival on the market of “silver surfers’, rich over-50s who enjoy and collect art and who today represent the primary users and buyers via mobile devices.

For this population, internet has become the primary hunting ground for artworks in the world, particularly via tablets and phablets which perfectly suit senior lifestyles.

The latest market research data in 2015 indicates that the most intense users of mobile internet are now the over-50s in the higher socio-professional categories.

hina has been hovering on the horizons of many in the racing industry for the past ten years, viewed as the great hope for the future.

And, indeed, with the help of a number of “interested” parties such as the Dubai Racing Club, Coolmore and The China Horse Club, initiatives have been taking place through the staging of informal meetings, as the development of racecourses of varying sizes around the country, as well the staging of associated meetings outside of it in Singapore.

Of course, much of the country’s future progression in the sport hinges on whether the communist government will ever legalise gambling and although slight steps have been made in this direction, it is difficult to gauge whether this will ever become a reality.

China’s UHNW population is still in the early stages of a cycle of wealth creation and accumulation – less than 10 per cent of the population having inherited any of their wealth. China has the largest share of selfmade UHNW individuals, and at an average age of 53, China’s UHNW population is the youngest of all the larger nations.

These individuals are still increasing their wealth and are open to many new ideas meaning that there is plenty of room for continued growth, something that the luxury brands have been keen to tap into.

As China’s urbanisation push continues and its middle-class grows, its economy is expected to complete its transformation from an investment-driven model to a consumption-lead model. This transformation is expected to accelerate and amplify the growth in its UHNW population and luxury spending The horseracing industry as well as those companies with an eye on China, may need only do one thing – imitate the progress that the art market has already made in the region.

Over 60 per cent of HNWIs in China are collectors – in particular watches seem to be favourite – however the growth interest in art has been phenomenal and according to Arttactic, China houses the fastest growing contemporary art market in the world.

The 2014 global art market was dominated by the three major art markets of the US (39 per cent), China (22 per cent) and the UK (22 per cent), with China leading the way (according to artprice.com) by turnover.

of $5.66 billion, down five per cent down versus 2013. From a segment perspective, China’s contemporary art market showed the sharpest contraction (-14%); but traditional painting and calligraphy, which represents 84.3 pen of the Chinese art market, also showed signs of fatigue (-3.9%).

The boom in Chinese collecting, like the boom in the Chinese economy, has upset traditional art world rules, compressing decades of change into just a few years.

Ground-breaking Asian equine art exhibition

L

AST YEAR Christie’s opened its first branch in Shanghai and the company’s The Art of the Horse exhibition was held to mark the opening.

The exhibition featured equine work from Asia and the west, contemporary work and ancient, jewellery and sculpture and painting. It was held in Shanghai for two weeks in October and then moved onto Hong Kong for a week in November.

The horse as a theme was chosen, in part, because last year was the Chinese year of the horse, however as John Stainton, international director and co-curator of the exhibition, explains there was more to it than that.

“The year of the horse was certainly a factor, but not completely the raison d’etre behind choosing

www.internationalthoroughbred.net

the horse as a theme,” said Stainton.

“By choosing the theme of the horse we were able to put together something we’d never done in quite such an ambitious fashion.

“There were 57 works and they ranged from antiquities, ancient Greek and Roman, right through to two or three works that were produced for exhibition by contemporary artists.

“We had a complete run of works through the ages as well as allowing us to encompass western work, Asian work, South American – it was totally cross category, and all around the theme of the horse.”

As Stainton admits it was a pretty big challenge for even a company such as Christie’s to undertake.

“It was pretty ambitious and took a year to put together, we took everything from small jade to large-scale bronze sculpture, yet from a company point of view it was fascinating to put together something that represented just about every department in the company, it was a really interesting exercise,” he enthuses.

“It was an international exhibition in as far as we promoted the exhibition around the world, but we only showed it in its entirety in Shanghai and Hong Kong, though we had mini previews in London and New York.

“It was a private selling exhibition, so it wasn’t an auction, all the works were available for private sale. Of the 56 pieces in the exhibitions we sold 28 to 13 different countries

with just over half of the sales being to Asianbased clients.

“We did take a huge amount of care in selecting what we took and we tried to take particularly good and nice examples of things in different categories at different price points.

“Our lowest-valued items included a couple of fun little Warhol prints at around $8,000 a piece, but we also had a couple of pieces at $3 million, it was a really broad range.”

Sales were not the only positive outcome from the exhibition.

“From a curatorial point of view we were able to show western or non-Asian work alongside examples that might be perhaps more obviously familiar to the local market,” adds Stainton. “It fostered interested dialogues and interesting comparisons and juxtapositions – and I have to say it was really, really exciting.

“It was fun, we learnt a great deal and some of the contemporary pieces sold very well, but we also made sales that we had been hopeful of making without necessarily expecting to.

“For example, a Stubbs sold to a client in China, and there was clearly a natural affinity with the clients to some of the older work in the exhibitions.”

As we have seen the level of interest in art, history and collectibles in China is unabated and this trend was also strongly felt at The Art of the Horse.

“The antiquities that we had, there was a group around five or six, there was huge

asia and art “They are not just looking at Chinese artists; they look at art as more globalised.

“It’s not like a western collector who starts going to museums in elementary school and grows up with this knowledge,” he says. “When you grow up in China, the art education has been very limited, not just western art, but Chinese art as well. They have a lot to do to catch up.”

China is in an enviable position, boasting a high level of market confidence, youthful vigor and a record of continued growth

in comparison to other markets. China’s vivacity as an art market can be attributed to its unique bi-focus: the more westernfocused Hong Kong market (controlled predominantly by Christie’s and Sotheby’s) and the mainland market, defined by China’s own Poly Auction and China Guardian.

The traditional major auction firms clearly wish to ensure that they keep a hold on the Asian expansion and Christie’s have made moves to ensure that the market does not slip out from under their noses.

interest in those. There is a great reverence for history and the past in Asia, it was a really fascinating and rewarding exercise,” reports Stainton.

“The market tends to be very informed, and if you are showing a work to client in China, even though they may not immediately be familiar with the artist or even the category, they’ll want to have chapter and verse, and then they will probably go away and do their own research.”

“What we find everytime we have an initiative like this in China there is huge interest, clients who are often much more informed than some might expect, it’s a terribly exciting market to go into, there is a great thirst for knowledge, a great thirst for

looking at interesting things.”

For Stainton personally it was a very rewarding experience: “In 25 years of working at Christie’s I don’t think I’ve been involved in a more interesting project.

“Clearly in recent years a significant demand for works across all categories coming from Asia, it tends to be very well judged and very well informed. Everytime we promote something like this in Asia we come across new clients.”

racing to art school

“

l really enjoyed the day and learnt more about horses and horseraces. I would definitely recommend it as it was a wonderful way to bring art and photography to life.”

This comment came from Hannah Tyler Street, aged 15, who attends Pittville School in Cheltenham, less than a mile from Prestbury Park. It was the first time that she and her classmates had been racing.

The British Horseracing Education Standards Trust (BHEST) has been introducing around 10,000 young people a year to the racing industry via it’s Racing to School education programme, which is free to schools and colleges.

Since 2001, 115,000 students have been visiting racecourses, trainer’s yards and stud farms using the context of thoroughbred racing and breeding to support and enhance pupils’ studies of their school subjects through outdoor activities delivered in these unique settings.

executive director of BHEST, and Debbie Burt, chairwoman of the Society of Equestrian Artists (SEA), at a Women In Racing event, led to a new partnership.

Historically, Racing to School days have tended to focus on numeracy and literacy with activities based in the weighing room, parade ring and on the racetrack to discuss weights and measures, distances, geometry and construction of fences.

Allen explained the new union: “This new working partnership with SEA has been hugely beneficial as it has enabled us to introduce art as a new subject within the Racing to School programme, thereby broadening its appeal and attracting new groups of students.

“So far, BHEST and the SEA have worked collaboratively to deliver six art-based days at racecourses, training yards and horse sales, with more planned in the coming year.”

“It has enabled us to reach out to a younger audience,”added Burt. “We already run a competition with the Pony Club – the John

“A fit thoroughbred at full stretch is a magnificent sight, and one that has inspired artists for generations.

“Thanks to the generous donations from society patron Lord Vestey and Prince Faisal’s Denford Stud, the society has been able to fund a variety of education projects.

“We have supplied some of the SEA’s full members to tutor at these events, just one of these initiatives. After each event, pupils and tutors fill in an appraisal form; it appears that we have given people a day to remember and that is particularly rewarding.”

In October students from Bishop Heber High School, Cheshire, were invited to Michael Owen and Andrew Black’s Manor House Stables, home to trainer Tom

Dascombe’s string. BHEST’s education officer Carrie Ford was present, along with the SEA’s Mary Herbert, tutor for the day.

“Before we went to see the horses, I explained to the pupils how equine art has developed over time, particularly thanks to the relatively recent contributions of Stubbs’s anatomical studies and Muybridge’s locomotion photography,” explains Herbert.

“

Many students continued to sketch right through their lunch break and I felt proud to be part of this initiative

“I showed them how these enlightenments had changed how artists approached the equine form and also how the role of horses in art has shifted from that of a symbol of masculine ego to subjects in their own right.”

The pupils watched horses warming up prior to going on the gallops. Herbert encouraged the pupils to start several small sketches from different angles, so that each time they looked up, they could find a horse in the right position for one of their sketches.

Herbert suggested that as horses would only be going up the gallops just once, the pupils should use the time to see if they could imagine how artists must have seen the “rocking horse”, the posture so often painted before the invention of photography.

Then if they could work out when the hooves were hitting the ground and the moment of suspension.

Nearly half of BHEST’s participating students last year came from deprived or inner city areas with little access to outside learning outside or chances to access rural activities She was delighted that whilst most of them took photographs and video, a couple continued to sketch, producing lightning gesture drawings of the horses at work.

After lunch, whilst the horses were relaxing, Herbert asked the pupils to work on the aspect they found most difficult; she produced lots of ad-lib demo sketches to help them understand the shape of the horses’ tricky features. Not surprisingly eyes, hooves, fetlocks and hocks were most often requested.

At the end of the day Herbert said: “It was a pleasure to work with a group of enthusiastic young artists, who all clearly enjoyed the challenge of what they were doing, asked lots of intelligent questions and produced some impressive results.

“Many students continued to sketch right through their lunch break and I felt proud to be part of this initiative. I’m sure if I had been given such an opportunity when I was at school, it would have had a great impact on

my development as an equine artist.”

Pittville School students had more of an overview – their day started with a visit to Kim Bailey’s yard before going on to the races at Cheltenham.

Tutor Colin Allbrook explained to them the importance of keeping a sketchbook, as well as using a camera to record a scene, before they made quick studies of the horses in the barn and on the gallops.

Prior to lunch, chairwoman Debbie Burt, attending a BHEST day for the first time, gave students a short talk on sculpting and the bronze casting process, handing around some smaller examples of her work for the students to examine.

Cheltenham races gave further opportunities for sketching – and Allbrook encouraged them to record all of the surroundings, not just the horses. For many

of the students, going out on to the course to stand by a fence during racing was a definite highlight.

Philip Blacker’s bronze of Best Mate, recently relocated as part of the racecourse developments, became a useful prop to aid a discussion on proportions. As well as improving their art skills, the accompanying BHEST education officer, this time Ollie McPhail, was on hand to answer racingrelated questions.

“As well as the chance to educate and possibly gain some junior members, days such as this offer even our most skilled artists

an opportunity to go behind the scenes and gain a deeper understanding of a subject which can only help improve their own work,” said Burt. “This, in turn, benefits racing, as work that these artists produce will have a greater accuracy and impact because of their increased knowledge.”

Herbert has since been commissioned to produce this year’s Injured Jockeys Fund Christmas card, while Allbrook has produced work from the day for the SEA’s annual exhibition in September.

Nearly half of BHEST’s participating students last year came from deprived or

inner city areas with little access to outside learning outside or chances to access rural activities.

Even schools such as Pittville struggle to find outdoor opportunities, and art teacher Penny Addison enthused about their experiences.

“It is a huge thank you for what has been an incredible day for our students,”she smiled. “It is fantastic to be able to get them learning outside of the classroom. It has certainly opened their eyes up to careers and opportunities beyond school life and to the world of horseracing.”

e’ll start at the most difficult part, the end.

Just when do you bring a relationship, a career, a feature, a script, a painting to an end? The conclusion is always the toughest part of any journey and it is something that equine artist Hubert de Watgrant admits is the most challenging part of his creative process. After all the effort and love that he might have put into producing a marvellous piece of art, the end, if enacted wrongly, can bring everything crashing to that premature end. Just when do you begin to end?

“I never know when it is finished,” admits de Watrigant. “Yet when you know it is finished, usually it is too late.

“You have to give freedom to people to view your work, to see their own things. I often have people say to me that I saw this and that in my work, and I say ‘no, never, that’s not there, you imagine that!’

happy. If you show everything, there is less emotion. A writer needs to keep readers turning the pages of a book, I need to keep viewers looking.

“When I think work is finished – it is always too much!

“When you are painting it is like climbing up a hill, but if you do too much, you start going down. And then you try to repair, but you go down more – it is all too late. When you first start to move down, stop – it is the beginning of too late.”

De Watrigant has enjoyed a career as an artist since the 1970s, is still as prolific now as he has been throughout his career and he feels that his work and style is still in an ongoing process of development.

“I am still learning – I believe that if you think you have found everything, then should go to bed and stop!” he laughs. “I am very far

“

If you show everything, there is less emotion. A writer needs to keep readers turning the pages of a book, I need to keep viewers looking from the end, there is a lot more I want to achieve and my work is still developing.”

The artist can list Hermes, The Queen, Baron Guy de Rothschild, the late Stavros Niarchos and the late Daniel Wildenstein as previous clients and he has produced a fine body of work for this year’s exhibition at the

Osborne. It will be a sixth exhibition at the studio for the artist, the first in long time, yet de Watrigant admits that exhibitions always hold surprises for him.

“I met with Geoffrey [Hughes] in the autumn, and showed him several paintings and said ‘I will take all these’. He said: ‘No, no, do not take that...!’ – we have to mix my idea with that of the gallery,” smiles the artist forgivingly. “There will always be surprises – many times I might take a painting to a show that I really like and it might not sell at all, sometimes I might choose one at the last minute and I am not sure about it at all, yet it is the first sold!

“You never know what is going to happen, but I try to choose a selection for a show, always.”

De Watrigant, who generally has one exhibition a year, has taken 18 months to

When you are painting it is like climbing up a hill, but if you do too much, you start going down pull together 47 pieces for the Osborne, part of a raft of a larger body of work, many other paintings failing to reach the “exhibition standard”.

Finding the right price point for each piece, as well as the right pricing mix, is important and is decided in association with the gallery.

Unfortunately, after all the work, the opening night is not an occasion de Watrigant relishes.

hubert de watrigant “I do not like any opening day,” he says.

“I hate that too for my exhibition, I am too nervous.” He smiles and adds: “It would be much better if I could go to the pub!

“I understand that I need to meet people and talk, but if I had a choice, I would go to the pub and go back when it is all over and ask ‘what’s the result?’”

De Watrigant is sending a mix of work to Motcombe Street, including images of boar hunting, bull fighting, landscapes and, of course, his leading subject, horses.

It is no coincidence that when he started “After The Race”, a mixed media work

out all that time ago he decided to specialise in painting horses – he comes from a family immersed in horseracing, his father was a breeder, his uncle a trainer and de Watrigant himself spent his early post-school years working for the likes of Gainesway Farm, Calumet Farm as well as alongside bloodstock agents.

Mandore Bloodstock Agency’s Nicolas de Watrigant and the French trainer Damien de Watrigant are nephews, while trainer Antoine is a cousin.

“At school I was always drawing, it was

a very natural thing for me. I did not go to art school, I don’t know why! I have been lucky, I have tried to find my way, to move, I specialised in the horse it was a little easier than landscapes,” he remembers.

“At the beginning I was doing portraits of horses, to find commissions to earn some money. If you want to work, you need to live, you need money, you need to sell paintings.

“I did a lot of portraits for 15 years, it got a little boring. I was doing a few exhibitions too, but not every year and was spending more time doing portraits than exhibitions.

“The thing with portraits you always know what is going to happen at the end, you don’t get surprise. So, in the middle of 1980s, I stopped most of the commissions to concentrate on exhibition work.

“I wanted to find my passion, my style, tried to find some new expression.”

A

lthough the TALENTED French artist then was keen to reveal more of himself on canvas, he was also enough of a realist to keep a watchful eye on the market. He kept his transition of style a gradual development.

“I moved slowly,” he reports, “if you move too fast people are disappointed they want to know what has happened to him and his style? What’s gone wrong?

“I needed to find new things for my work so I put some collage on paper, worked on board and wood, and I like to mix medium.

At school I am not sure they were very happy about that – they thought it was impossible! I like to put pastel or ink on oil – it does works sometimes!

“I like to find new things – I am sure I am not the first to do these things, but I find the way out by myself.”

It has been the work itself that has led de Watrigant, who lives in a secluded, rural spot in an agricultural area around an hour and a half south of Bordeaux, to find his own expression. He claims not to have inspiration, but that the actual process of painting will develop an idea.

He will still head on occasions to the races with his pencil and paper, but he won’t stay with the crowd, preferring instead to move down course, go to the start or down the back straight. Unlike many equestrian artists, he is unlikely to be armed with a camera.

“I try to show the ‘noise’ in my paintings, when you watch racing there are noises, I try to put the noises on canvas!” he explains of

If you are waiting for the good time to start to work, well, you can wait all of the day, all of the week and all of the month… the challenge he sets himself.

“Photos can be help, but if you do a copy of the picture, you are sure to be wrong as a photo is wrong. It is impossible – there is not a good movement, the leg will wrong, the conformation not good, on the photo it will okay, but on the drawing it will be wrong.

“If you are doing an exact reproduction of the photo, you have to change some things – the best way is to have some help from the photo and then try to forget it very quickly.

“The answer is to draw. So when I am out I might draw, and from a sketch you can find an idea – it could be a good idea, it could be many things. Most times, many times, it does not work!”

He admits that transferring those noises, those images, the moments into a work of art is not easy. He has created a beautiful studio overlooking the fields of France for his work space, but in order to get into the “zone” he needs to be regimental about his working hours and his commitments, making the actual process of working become his creator.

“You need to have patience. It is not easy to go and do, if you are waiting for it, well you can wait all day. You have to go and find it – patience, you have to work sometimes to find the idea. It can take hours,” he explains, shrugging his shoulders at the enormity of life as an artist.

“Every day I go to the studio at the same time – I need that structure. If you are

waiting for the good time to start to work, well, you can wait all of the day, all of the week and all of the month...

“Even if I do nothing, I need to see my sketch book and need to find the inspiration.

Inspiration does not exist for me – something I might have heard or seen, I can find something from it, but sudden inspiration? I do not have it, my inspiration is my work.”

De Watrigant is very much looking forward to his trip to London for his July exhibition, and conveniently timed it will also have allowed him to take in a couple of days at Royal Ascot. The artist enjoys the atmosphere of the capital city and the creative ambience of Motcombe Street, though his opening night will not be at the top of his list of “things to do” while in London.

You’d be well advised to put the opening on yours, and if you are down that way for the start of the show, and you want to chat to de Watrigant about his work, you might be advised to head to the nearest local.

I

t does not matter how big a stud or how influential a bloodstock concern is involved, it is always exciting when a mare’s first foal wins a race. If that youngster goes on to become a stakes performer, well things get doubly exciting, but if a handful of Group 1 entries start to look legitimate, it is time to make big plans.

Mahsoob won Royal Ascot’s Listed Wolferton Handicap Stakes on just his fourth start. The colt was retaining an unbeaten tag that saw him gain his maiden win at Kempton in the November of his three-year-old year, a first handicap success off a BHA mark of 89 on the Newbury Dubai Duty Free Day followed up by a second handicap success at York from the lofty mark of 97.

The Wolferton proved to be a perfect option for the Dansili colt proving him with the ideal stepping stone from handicap company through to Listed race success

en route to possible future stakes race challenges. His big entries this summer include the Eclipse, the Princess of Wales’s Stakes, the John Smith’s Cup, the King George VI and the Irish Champion Stakes.

A step up from the Ascot trip of 1m2f to 1m4f is believed to be well within his compass by trainer John Gosden who said after the race: “Mahsoob got forced wide and is an inexperienced horse but he got there well, slightly telling us to step him up to a mile and a half – I trained his mother who was capable of winning up to a mile and a half – but his owner will have the final decision.”

That owner is breeder Sheikh Hamdan and his Shadwell Estate, and the mare in question is a lady called Mooakada.

Born in 2006, she is unusually a grey filly by Montjeu and is out of a Darshaan mare called Sulaalah, both sires offering the stamina capabilities for the filly to get the

middle-distance trip.

After winning her maiden at Newmarket on the only start of her two-year-old career, in four further starts she gained a fourth placing in the Swettenham Stud Fillies’ Trial, though two further starts over 1m4f, one of which came in the Group 2 Ribblesdale Stakes, resulted in unplaced efforts.

Her next placed attempt came when second in the Listed John Musker Stakes over 1m2f at Yarmouth.

Two late runs in November – on soft over 1m2f at Doncaster and on standard at Kempton over 1m4f, produced two more runner-up results in Listed company.

Although Gosden now reports that he was convinced she wanted 1m4f, she only once managed to trouble the judge over the trip.

Mooakada is one of only three winners, and the only offspring with black-type, out of Sulaalah (Darshaan), who ran just once.

Mooakada’s older brother by Sadler’s Wells failed to win, while her immediate half-sibling Tumooh (Authorized) won once at two from one start, while Rewaaya, also by Authorized, was a three-time winner, including when beating Harris Tweed last year in the 1m4f Sir Gordon Richards Handicap.

Sulaalah has since had a 2012 Shamardal colt named Wathaab, who has been sent to France, but she has since sadly had two dead foals – one by Teofilo and the other by Raven’s Pass. She has been to visit Sea The Stars this spring.

At first glance, Mooakada’s pedigree looks light enough through Sulaalah, but she is Shadwell-bred throughout and from one of the great original Nunnery Stud families.

Her grand-dam was the Prestige Stakes (G3) winner Bint Shadayid, who also finished second in the Fillies’ Mile and third in the 1,000 Guineas.

She was, of course, a daughter of Sheikh Hamdan’s wonderful Derby winner Nashwan and out of his brilliant dual Group 1 and 1,000 Guineas winner Shadayid. By Shadeed, she also finished second in the Coronation Stakes, runner-up in the Sussex Stakes and third in the Queen Elizabeth Stakes to Selkirk having filled the same position in the Sprint Cup to Polar Falcon.

S

hadayid was bred by Sheikh Hamdan out of the Lord Gayle mare Desirable and was the best by the Gainsborough Stud sire Shadeed (Nijinsky), winner of the 2,000 Guineas and the Queen Elizabeth II Stakes. He became the first British Classic winner to run in the Breeders’ Cup, initially finishing fourth of four, though he was later promoted to third. At the end of his three-year-old year he was Timeform rated 134, equal to Nashwan and Sir Ivor.

Sarita won the York Fairfield Plate and became the third dam of Nearctic, and it is through her that the Shadwell family descends from Pretty Polly 82

Shadayid inherited her grey coat from her dam, the Cheveley Park Stakes winner Desirable.

With her grand-dam Balidaress, Shadayid was from one of the best stud book families – Desirable’s half-sisters include Dumaani, the double winner of the Keeneland Breeders Cup Stakes, Alydaress, who won the Irish Oaks, Balistroika, the dam of Russian Rhythm, and the Moyglare and Cheveley Park winner Park Appeal.

After her win at Newmarket, Park Appeal was sold by Paddy and Seamus Burns of Lodge Park Stud to Sheikh Mohammed. She went onto produce Cape Cross, Pastorale, the dam of Iffraaj, and Arvola, the dam of Diktat, the family also fulfilling hugely important role as a founding family for Hamdan’s brother’s farm, Darley Stud.

The pedigree, of course, stretches back to Pretty Polly, who won 15 consecutive races and was only the fifth filly to win the British Fillies Triple Crown since its inception in 1814. She was initially considered to be a failure at stud, but once her four daughters returned to Eyrefield Lodge Stud each one founded a dynasty.

Our line comes from her daughter Molly Desmond, winner of the Cheveley Park Stakes.

She produced five winners, including Zodiac (Sunstar), winner of the Irish Derby and Irish St. Leger, Spike Island (Spearmint), winner of the Irish 2,000 Guineas and the Irish Derby, Strongbow (Swynford), winner of the Greenham Plate, Golden Silence (Swynford), second to Pennycomequick in the 1929 Epsom Oaks, and Sarita.

Sarita won the York Fairfield Plate and became the third dam of Nearctic, and it is through her that the Shadwell family descends from Pretty Polly.

Mahsoob, who is by Dansili, may well get further, yet he might not want much more than 1m2f, but with continued progression, he has the capability of making it to the top.

After the Wolferton, jockey Paul Hanagan said: “Mahsoob feels like a high-class horse, and will get further. It is hard to figure out how good he could be, he is so laid back.

“His temperament makes it easy to work with him and will help him moving forwards – the world could be his oyster now” And with such strong link to one of the best pages in the book, you might well be proved correct Mr Hanagan. Guess there is no danger of you picking another Shadwell runner over him in future either now.

photo of the month: an Australian princess meets a handsome prince This picture has done the rounds a little on social media, but we thought that it is such a lovely shot – so naturally wellposed featuring two very good-looking individuals – that no other picture, not even all the myriad of Royal Ascot fashion, beauty or racing shots, could beat it for this month’s photo of the month title. Anyway when is International Thoroughbred going to have a chance to print a picture of Kylie again?

Kylie Minogue took time out from a fairly hectic tour schedule – performing after racing at Newmarket on Friday night, after racing at Haydock on Saturday and then back to Hyde Park on Sunday – to meet arguably the greatest racehorse that ever lived, the brilliant Frankel, who has just finished covering his third book of mares at Banstead Manor.

Juddmonte’s equine hero seems a little coy and possibly star struck himself meeting the “Princess of Pop” .
