first word

It rained...

Deauville’s August festival was hit by frequent heavy rain storms and Newbury’s Dubai Duty Free Arabian race-day did not escape either, writes Paul Haigh

f course the Arc is the big subject in racing at the moment. Or the Arcs. You didn’t know there were two? More of that later. But first the big story from the US – Saratoga and “Toast” at Del Mar notwithstanding. The recent declaration against race-day use of Lasix by 25 leading US trainers, and the immediate, outright rejection of their statement by horsemen’s associations led by those in in New York and Florida, revealed the extent of the schism in American racing on the subject of what that country likes to refer to as “medication”. It’s still too early even to guess how the argument may develop, still less which side will win, but what’s already clear is that those who’d like to see race-day medication banned are members of the elite; those who want it retained are a majority perhaps, but a majority made up largely of journeymen. The American Jockey Club speaks clearly against race-day medication, but the American Jockey Club is not the voice of American racing. There is no single voice, and that’s the problem which the majority in the rest of the world, muttering grimly about the importance of uniform rules worldwide (and on steroids too, let’s not forget) fails to take on board. If US racing had an overall commissioner like other American sports, things might be different; but it doesn’t. Will anything come of this soon? Who knows? Whereof we cannot speak, thereof we must be silent. Wittgenstein said that, or something like it, and we should probably take his advice even though there’s no actual reason to believe he was thinking about US racing at the time. (He may, however, have been on medication. The boy was clever but often confused. According to his mate Bertrand Russell: “I first realised Wittgenstein was a genius when I failed to convince him by means of logic that there was not an elephant in the room.”) Since Deauville and York there has been one other big subject among the racing Twitterati: Who’s better, Kingman or Australia? They were both ridiculously good in the Prix Jacques le Marois and the Juddmonte International respectively.

www.internationalthoroughbred.net

“

Since Deauville and York there has been one major subject among the racing twitterati: if Kingman and Australia ever meet again, who’d win?

Which way to bet if the deeply improbable occurred and they ever met again? Please refer to the Wittgenstein dictum. Better to discuss something about which we do have something better than guesswork to go on, a form of racing that isn’t riven in the same way as American thoroughbred racing by argument and counter argument about what’s best for the sport and for the breed, although it does of course have its normal debates about which members of the breed are best. It remains a form still (wilfully?) misunderstood by many in the racing fraternity worldwide. What most people keep forgetting about Arabian racing is that without it there would have been no thoroughbred racing in the first place because without the three founding stallions, the Darley Arabian, the Godolphin Barb and the Byerley Turk, there would be no such creature as the thoroughbred racehorse. It’s never going to take over from thoroughbred racing or even be a threat to it. The thoroughbred is much too fast for the Arabian over normal racing distances just as the Arabian has far too much stamina for the thoroughbred over extreme distances (google 100mile endurance racing). But there’s really no reason why the two sports shouldn’t co-exist – the one a whale, the other a relative minnow – in mutual respect, admiration and contentment. That seems to be the way things are going anyway – with Arabian racing, recently stimulated by competition between new Middle Eastern supporters from Abu Dhabi, Qatar and Oman to supplement the input of Dubai, and now conducted in 22 countries worldwide with an annual conference in Paris. It’s been quite a long haul though. The secret of not making thoroughbred fans angry with Arabian racing is for Arabian racing not to be inserted into thoroughbred racing cards, especially major ones as used to be the case on King George day at Ascot in the era when the big race had different sponsors. Run the Arabian races as introductions on thoroughbred cards, like the now €1 million Qatar Arabian World Cup which starts the action on Arc day,

first word or the Arabian Group 1s that begin Dubai World Cup Day/Night, and they’re positively welcomed. Break up the thoroughbred action once it starts and it doesn’t work. That only makes thoroughbred fans sulk, and sulky fans are never open to conversion. Or better still if you really want to persuade people who love thoroughbreds to see the unquestionable merit in Arabian racing too, hold an all-Arabian race meeting at a major racecourse. Ah, wait a minute. This is exactly what Dubai’s Sheikh Hamdan Al Maktoum has done. And not for the first time either. August 10th saw the 32nd renewal of “Dubai Day” at Newbury, an event which sees the annual crowning of Britain’s Arabian racing champions, and one which Britain’s Arabian Racing Organisation (ARO) has no doubts about billing as “Arabian racing’s equivalent of Arc day”. Throw in free admission, free goody bags, free gifts and free raffles (one for a holiday in Dubai, another for a new car) and you get an audience of the uncommitted to go with a strong core of devotees. And that’s how you get converts. Or you should.

t’s not as big as the Arc of course. But that’s because Arabian racing is not as big as thoroughbred, nor will it ever be. But for the faithful of Arabian racing it’s just as meaningful and just as much fun. Unfortunately malevolent rain gods seem to have got it in for Dubai Day because it doesn’t seem to matter when they decide to hold it, liquid keeps falling out of the sky to spoil the festive atmosphere, and liquid blown by high winds at that. August 10, to which date the meeting had been moved in the hope of getting a better deal from the meteorologists, turned out to be more agreeable than the September Sundays, particularly the bad one in 2012 when it rained non-stop and waste bins overflowed with inside-out umbrellas. As a general rule people tend not to attend outdoor events in such conditions, especially not when they’ve been bitten before. So in the circumstances the fact that more than 7,000 passed through the Newbury turnstiles which were set to click even though no entrance money changed hands, was something of a triumph in itself. By the afternoon the wind was only blustery. By the afternoon though, any waverers would certainly have decided to stay at home and watch it on RUK. Festive summer occasions need festive summer weather. Sometime it’s going to be a sunny month on the north coast of France. Sometime there’s going to be blazing sunshine for the Arabian racing at Newbury. Then we’re going to find that all the proselytising for a sport that’s meant to be fun, as well as serious, works. Some hardy racegoers won a free trip to Dubai. A bus driver from Leicestershire won the new car. Someday the sun is going to shine from a cloudless sky on Dubai Day and then we’re going to see a great influx of potential converts to justify Sheikh Hamdan’s largesse. To return though to the matter of elephants in the

And so to the other Arc – the one that doesn’t need converts because it’s already accepted as the most prestigious prize in racing

room: Arabian racing doesn’t have one because it’s committed to rule uniformity on all medication issues, including steroids. At least, and at last, the Americans are talking about the elephant that lives in theirs. And so to the other Arc – the one that doesn’t need converts because it’s already accepted as the most prestigious prize in racing. Two points need to be made about the race: first, three-year-old fillies have a huge advantage, second, the Japanese are obsessed with it. Harp Star is by far the best three-year-old filly in Japan, maybe the best they’ve had for years. She is also planned to be the first of her age group they’ve sent to the Arc. Ergo, she can succeed where her sire, the great Deep Impact, and five second-placed horses in the last two decades did not – if you include Orfevre who should have won at least once. This, by the way, is a philosophical point on which both Wittgenstein and Bertrand Russell enthusiastically agree.

the news

Record-breaking in France

The European yearling season kicked off strongly at the Arqana August Sale with ground-breaking figures

lthough the Arqana August Sale always has a touch of uniqueness about it, and is not a hard and fast barometer to use for a gauge on the rest of the yearling sale season, the results from Deauville will give breeders confidence for the rest of the autumn. And particularly the results from the V2 sale, which offered “industry” middle-market commercial horses, many bought by trainers. Trainers based in France can afford to pay a lot more for their working capital than those based in Britain or Ireland due to the beneficial prize-money and premium scheme, but many young sires were well received and many Irish and British pin-hookers turned up for the Monday and Tuesday sale days alone. For it’s second year V2 was set up to be a sale offering a more precocious bunch of yearlings – how early they will be might be debatable due to the nature of pedigrees and French racing – but if results pan out, the

sale could offer a viable alternative to other Euroepan sale. A huge indicator of the success of V2 was the stunning 92 per cent clearance rate compared to 75 per cent from last year, which is a more usual figure seen at a yearling sale. It is an incredible figur, particularly for a “second” level sale and held so early in the season. The main boutique sale did not see a vastly inflated top price as so often happens at Deauville, which is probably a good thing as bubbles tend to burst, so for a record average and median to have been achieved without a one-off extraordinary price inflating figures, makes for good reading. It gives the sale a solid feel which on occasions it has lacked, despite achieving some big prices. In total, 13 yearlings fetched sums over €500,000, a record for the sale, though the three priced over €1 million was down by one from last year’s four (a record then). Tony Nerses appeared at the sale for the Arqana big spenders: top, Tony Nerses went to €1.2 million for the top lot, a daughter of Monsun, on behalf of owners Aleh Al Homaizi and Imad Al Sagar; left, Derek Brugman of Mayfair Speculators with agent Peter Doyle

first time in recent memory and ensured his trip was not wasted, purchasing the top lot for €1,200,000. As so often at this sale it was a filly – this time by the deceased Monsun and from the wonderfully strong largely German family of Samum, Schiaparelli, Salve Regina as well as the sale filly’s siblings the Group 1 winner Seismos, Group 1 placed Soberania and Group 3 winner Samba Brazil. She will be a fine addition to the fledgling Blue Diamond Stud and was sold by Ecurie des Monceaux, who topped all three days and was leading consignor for the third year in succession. The farm was the only vendor to achieve an average over €300,000, while its turnover of €8,727,000 is easily the largest ever achieved by one consignor at the August sale. The previous best was €6,500,000 achieved in 2007 by Etreham through the years of its own domination of the sale. The farm also sold the Invincible Spirit

half-brother to Group 1 Irish Oaks winner Chicquita to the South African-based Mayfair Speculators for €1.1 million. The colt became the third offspring of Prudenzia to sell for a seven-figure sum in Deauville in as many years, with her two previous fillies by Galileo having made €1.1 million and €1 million, respectively. Mayfair Speculators’ representative Derek Brugman, who was sitting with agent Peter Doyle, said: “In my opinion he was the best colt in the sale. Just a lovely horse – probably still a little bit immature but we have time, and after buying so many fillies we needed to buy a colt as we might need a stallion later on, and hopefully that’s what he’ll be when he retires. “Like the others he will stay in France to be trained. We want to expand in Europe and France is a good place with the premiums.”

33,790,000

Mayfair bought four horses for an average of €655,000, the leading buyer on average, while Mandore International bought the most horses for the largest spend – 15 lots for an outlay of €2,950,000. Five individual buying entities spent over €2 million and 12 over €1 million, another record and enormous statistic, especially considering that Shadwell did not play.

the news

Tattersalls ups its stake in sales company Osarus Tattersalls has announced that it has taken a majority stake in the seven-year-old French sales company Osarus. The move increases an initial smaller holding which Tattersalls took in 2012.

Commenting on the acquisition, Tattersalls chairman Edmond Mahony said: “Tattersalls is delighted to announce the acquisition of a majority stake in French sales company Osarus. We view the move as an investment in a vibrant, ambitious, young company, which has made a significant impact in an important sector of the European

bloodstock market in a very short space of time. “We have been working closely with the Osarus team for more than 18 months and taking a majority stake in the firm reflects how impressed we have been by their collective vision. “The move also reflects our confidence in the French racing and breeding industry, which is respected and admired

throughout the world. The heartland of Osarus is the south-west region of France where so many of the leading French breeders and trainers are based, and it is a region which continues to thrive and prosper.” Annual Osarus turnover has grown every year since its inaugural September Yearling Sale held in 2008, which grossed €461,780. The 2013 renewal

xxxxx Kingman rules supreme, impressive results at Arqana

With the emergence of Zebedee and I’m Invincible, the stallion is already developing a reputation as a sire of sires. The former has a brilliant two-year-old in Ivawood, and the later was the clear-cut leading freshman sire in Australia. Nucifera (More Than Ready) is a very good French-trained colt and he won the Listed François Boutin and maintained his unbeaten record. Also continuing her unbeaten run was Le Havre’s daughter Avenir Certain, victorious in the Prix de la Nonette. She is sure to be a major player in the autumn. Finally, at York, Australia confirmed his position at the top of the 1m2f/1m4f division by comfortably beating Telescope and Mukhadram by further than Taghrooda had at Ascot. Jenny Norris, a first time Arqana consignor of a Zamindar colt for Clairemont Stud, made a wise decision to divert Liam and I from our usual camp site, which was probably underwater this year. The Norris’s were rewarded with a nice profit in a market that appreciates Zamindar colts more than at Newmarket, and I was rewarded with a dry bed.

rich diet of top class racing and the first European yearling sales has been last month’s fare. Kingman has bestrode the period with a convincing win in a muddled, tactical race for the Sussex Stakes, before going onto a wonderful win at Deauville in the Prix Jacques Le Marois run on very soft ground. I think trainer John Gosden covered every blade of grass in his walks over the Deauville track over three days. Last time out, when halfway down the straight, he was saved from possibly calling it the wrong way – he received a phone call from owner Prince Khalid Abdullah confirming his keeness to run. The decision was duly made. It was reminiscent of a similar decision by Paul Mellon before Mill Reef ran in the Gimcrack when trainer Ian Balding was relieved that the owner made the call on similar ground – with the same good result. Kingman has confirmed his position as top miler with defeats of the older generation and has catapulted his already well-regarded sire Invincible Spirit into the very top rank of sires.

sell from Hubert Honore’s Haras d’Omméel and the moral of the story is that luck is more important than judgement. I had tried, and failed, to sell Lady Oriande as a yearling at Doncaster. She then failed to win a race, but her younger brother Striking Ambition went on to become a Group 2 winner and finish an unlucky second in the Prix de l’Abbaye. Her first foal by Exceed And Excel sold well as a foal in Deauville and showed a good return on the deal I got for buying five nominations in the stallion’s first year at Darley. I then sent her to Monsieur Bond, before his golden patch, and produced a nice colt whom JeanClaude Rouget bought called My Name Is Bond. He won a Group 3 in Paris before being sold on to Hong Kong. He did not enjoy success out there for a while, resulting in a switch to trainer Caspar Fownes. He recently gained a big money win in the Macau Hong Kong Trophy. I sold a useful filly by Multiplex and had intended to keep the full-sister and then sell Lady Oriande in-foal to Paco Boy. All went according to plan until she lost the foal a month before the sale, leaving me still owning both.

the news achieved turnover of €2,913,000, a massive 87 per cent rise from 2012, with an average price of €18,437. Total Osarus 2013 turnover showed similarly impressive growth, rising 78 per cent from €2,537,000 to €4,527,000. Osarus auctioneer and bloodstock sales manager Emmanuel Viaud commented: “This is a hugely significant moment for all of us at Osarus and for the wider French bloodstock industry. “Tattersalls is Europe’s leading

firm of bloodstock auctioneers and we are proud that such a globally respected company has had the confidence to take a majority holding in Osarus at this early stage in our development. “We have enjoyed a successful strategic alliance with Tattersalls since 2012 and as we approach our September Yearling Sale at La Teste, we can look forward to working as partners to provide the best possible service to French breeders in the years to come.”

Gale Force Ten to stand at the Irish National Stud

The Irish National Stud became one of the first European stallion farms off the blocks this year regarding announcements of new stallions with the news that it is to stand Gale Force Ten, a son of Oasis Dream, in 2015. Bred by Stowell Park Stud and a sale-topping DBS Premier Yearling at £280,000, as a two-year-old Gale Force Ten won a June maiden before going onto finish a close second in the Norfolk Stakes (G2) and third in the Group 1 Middle Park. After Listed success on his seasonal debut at three, the colt collected a fourth placing in the Poule d’Essai des Poulains (G1), a second in the Irish 2,000 Guineas (G1) before gaining Group 3 success in the Jersey Stakes (G3). He failed to trouble the judge again, but put in a strong effort when fourth in that autumn’s Group 1 Prix du Moulin. Gale Force Ten is out of the Listed winner Ronaldsay, who was placed 13 times, and is from the family of champion juvenile Bianca Nera, the Fillies’ Mile and Falmouth Stakes winner Simply Perfect, as well as the Yellow Ribbon Stakes (G1) runner-up Turning Top.

Dunaden to Overbury Stud

It was a busy, often wet, few days at Deauville for the Arqana August sale

Fortunately, in 2012, my sister asked me to look at Siyouni for her when I was over in Normandy... I liked him so much that I decided to use him as well. Lady Oriande produced a very nice filly whose photo was used to advertise Siyouni. She sold very well at Arqana, James Harron the purchaser. It made my bold gamble to ask for a foal share to Redoute’s Choice attainable. He led the sires’ table in Australia for the third time and the Aga Khan sent him 17 black-type winners or producers, including Zarkova, Sagawara and Shareta. I am keeping my fingers crossed for the pregnancy test at the end of

September. I might even be able to afford a reasonable cover on my own account next year! As John Milton wrote “Luck is the residue of design”. Abiding memories of Deauville this August are the wonderful temperament (like Australia) of Kingman as he walked round the stable yard early in the morning; the gauchos riding one and leading four polo ponies down the beach past the Normandy Hotel; Omar Sharif strolling back to his hotel after the races; the magnetic pull of Le Drakkar after dinner and the clear result of that on various faces the next morning. All one needed was for the rain to stop, which, luckily, it did.

The Pearl Bloodstock-owned globetrotting Melbourne Cup winner Dunaden, a son of Nicobar, is retiring from racing to stand at Overbury Stud.. David Redvers, Pearl Bloodstock’s racing and bloodstock adviser, said: “I am delighted we have found Dunaden a wonderful home with such a professional operator as Simon Sweeting.nBeing based close to Tweenhills Farm and Stud will enable us to walk in plenty of Sheikh Fahad's best mares to be covered by him. We will be looking at all sorts of incentives to secure him the best book of Flat mares, in addition to the dual-purpose types he is bound to attract.” Dunaden won ten races in a 46-race career, his top level successes also coming in the Group 1 Hong Kong Vase and the Caulfield Cup. Simon Sweeting said: “It is hugely exciting to be standing a horse of Dunaden’s stature and to be involved with Sheikh Fahad and David Redvers. Everything about Dunaden suggests he can become a successful sire – he is an extremely attractive individual, both in looks and temperament, he is a triple Group 1 winner, rated 130 by Timeform, and he won more than £5,000,000 in prize-money.

English Channel to relocate

ENGLISH CHANNEL, sire of recent American St Leger winner The Pizza Man, has been relocated to stand at Calumet Farm in Kentucky for the 2015 breeding season. Originally retired to Hurricane Hall in 2008, English Channel has stood the last five breeding seasons at Lane’s End Farm for a fee of $25,000. English Channel won six Grade 1s, including a 7l victoey in the 2007 Breeders’ Cup Turf, a race in which he defeated Dylan Thomas. He has sired three Grade 2 winners this year in the US.

Leading owner and breeder Sir Eric Parker dies SIR ERIC PARKER, owner of Crimbourne Stud and a hugely successful racehorse owner, breeder and leading industry figure, has died aged 81. Parker owned 1991 Grand National winner Seagram and bred the Group 1 Prix Jean Prat winner and young stallion Havana Gold. He died after returning from Deauville where his Dubawi yearling colt out of Coyote fetched €500,000, the highest price ever achieved at auction by a yearling bred at Crimbourne Stud. That expansion of the stud came after Parker, who qualified as a chartered accountant in 1956, retired from conglomerate Trafalgar House, of which he was

The late Sir Eric Parker

chief executive for many years. As a racehorse owner for 43 years, Parker enjoyed major successes under both codes, his big-race wins also including the 1993 Whitbread Gold Cup with Topsham Bay, while the dual Group 1-winning miler Indian Lodge was his best Flat horse. Parker joined the Racehorse Owners Association Council in 1994 and retired only at this summer's AGM. He was president of the ROA between 1998 and 2001, and he also retained a variety of nonexecutive directorships including the BHB, Levy Board, Tote and National Stud. A statement from the ROA read: “We are deeply saddened to announce that Sir Eric Parker

Entire Patinack racing interests to be dispersed at Magic Millions Magic Millions will conduct an unreserved dispersal sale of all Patinack Farm bloodstock, as well as an unreserved auction of all its real estate property, in what will be the largest private thoroughbred dispersal sale in Australian history. Patinack’s entire portfolio of stallions, broodmares, foals, yearlings and racehorses will be auctioned in the final week of September at the Magic Millions Sales Complex at the Gold Coast. The 560-lot catalogue will include stallions Murtajill, Monaco Consul, Trusting and Lope De Vega The Group 1-winning broodmares Allez Wonder (in-foal to All Too Hard), Bel Mer (All Too Hard), La Montagna (Lope De Vega), Small Minds (So You Think) and Victory Vein (Lope de Vega) will also be offered, alongside relations to stakes winners including Makybe Diva, Commands, Danewin, Dehere, Gingerbread Man and Murtajill.

The organisation’s farms will also go under the hammer, including two Hunter Valley stud properties. There is also a state-of-theart training and spelling complex at Wadham Park in Victoria. The sale of Patinack’s thoroughbred and property assets is believed to have been triggered by the decision of Magic Millions owner Gerry Harvey to call in the debt owed to him by besieged owner Nathan Tinkler. Harvey, who is owed a reported A$40 million by Tinkler, holds a caveat over Patinack’s racing and breeding assets, which is taking control this month. The sale will bring an end to a whirlwind six-year racing interest by Tinkler, who confirms he will walk away from the sport when his entire thoroughbred portfolio goes under the hammer this month. Patinack staff were informed of the development this week. It is understood

passed away in his sleep this morning. Sir Eric had defied medical opinion for many years during a lengthy battle with various forms of cancer.” Rachel Hood, the ROA president, said: "Everybody at the ROA is devastated to learn of Sir Eric's passing. “His personal bravery in his fight against illness has been an example to us all and, no matter how unwell he felt, it never diminished his drive and determination to improve the sport he cared so passionately about. “His greatest love was for his wife, Marlene, and his family, and our hearts go out to them all at this incredibly sad time.”

Harvey visited Patinack’s Sandy Hollow property to inspect the horses and select the best stock. In May, it was announced Patinack Farm was sold to Dubai-based investment company Cibola Capital, but alarm bells started ringing when the actual existence of Cibola Capital was brought into question. Tinkler was worth almost $2 billion when his horseracing empire was at its peak with 200 staff registered on the Patinack Farm books. He invested heavily in properties in New South Wales, Queensland and Victoria to support expanding racing and breeding interests. But financial pressures attributed to the collapse in the price of coal placed a significant strain on the day-to-day running of Patinack Farm and has led to the current situation. “There’s no doubt my financial situation's changed, but even if it was stronger I wouldn’t be putting my money in that direction,” said Tinkler, who now lives in Singapore. “I was young when I made those decisions and grew a business too fast. We all make mistakes along the way. I'm not immune to that. “I’ve always enjoyed racing. I started with that and I'm leaving with that,” he added.

Lion d’Angers racecourse

This game tames lions

rovincial racing in France is a most elegant way of racing compared with a day at many small race tracks in Britain. I got to sample the delights of French racing in July on a threeday stakes racing trip – first to Le Lion d’Angers for the Listed Grand Prix du Lion d’Angers and then on to Vichy for the Group 3 Grand Prix de Vichy. I kicked off the journey with a flight to Nantes airport, a cute lovely easy airport found near the Brittany coast, and then drove an hour to the Angers region the night before the Listed race. It is a beautiful spot as found behind the race track is one of France’s National Studs, set in a beautiful parkland. The racecourse also stages jump racing, including the longest jumping race held in France, while there are also show jumping and eventing courses found in the

centre of the track. The ground, as usual in France, is well kept with plenty of grass and, as is so often, was on the softer side of good. I arrived on a Monday and was without a hotel booking, so I was mortified to find the local hotel closed. I set about finding a bed to sleep in reasonably close vicinity, Google came to the rescue. Eventually, I stumbled upon Château du Plessis, a bed and breakfast château operated by charming owner Valerie, with six rooms and plenty of space. I had a fantastic and relaxing breakfast and evening meal in this hunting-dominated décor, which must have been home to many wild boar hunts in the 16th century. The racecourse, although confusing at times, with some races looping back on themselves in front of the stands, was very “French” but friendly. The jockeys, who flew up from Vichy, cut it fine as there was no

taxi to take them from the Angers airstrip. It was a great race – won not unsurpisingly at present by a daughter of Le Havre called Summer Suprice, while we gained some important black-type with a fourth placing. I moved on to Vichy with my one-way rental car for the Grand Prix, which sadly I hadn’t noticed was staged through an evening meeting with fireworks at midnight. The five-and-a-half hour journey, mostly thank goodness on a motorway, was aided by my Tom Tom app on my iPhone – I got into Vichy at the same time as the jockeys, who had ridden in the last at Angers. Vichy is a wonderful spa town with springs, many good restaurants and the compact racecourse lies across the river from the town centre. The ground was unseasonably bottomless for July and put paid to any

aspirations of lifting their pinnacle race of the calendar. I headed off to Lyon the next morning to catch a flight back to continue my family vacation. I had a day back on the farm for “blacksmith” day. I then travelled on to Saratoga for a new project, which had started at the beginning of the year when we started to consider taking an Invincible Spirit coltto sell in the US. He had been accepted for both Arqana and Tattersalls Book 1, and with Kingman winning the Irish Guineas the Saturday prior to his shipping to Lexington to finish his preparation, we had one final discussion regarding his sale site. We plumped for the experimental route, almost contrarian, and sent him to the US. He travelled overnight to Saratoga and arrived the Friday before the sale, tired but bright. He had the following day off and then a day showing, everything went well. Early Sunday morning he showed symptoms of colitis; he was sent to the clinic and sadly failed to see out the day. What surprised me was the speed and severity of the deadly condition; it struck like lightning without warning and claimed his life so quickly. We never found out if the plan would work, though he was shown plenty, vetted and heart scanned. The right signs were there, but who knows what the outcome would have been. Rather than wallow in our own sorrow, I flew to Lexington to look at some stallions and mares and foals before returning to Britain. As I have said here before “this game tames lions!”

he Juddmonte International was certainly worth the weight, as it were, for both parts of the successful centaur partnership. Joseph O’Brien pared his tall frame down to 8st12lb for the first time in nearly two years; Australia turned up for his drop back to 1m2f correspondingly portly. And the two found perfect balance on the Knavesmire. The International was Australia’s first venture against older horses, after his close third in the 2,000 Guineas and victories in the Derby and its Irish equivalent, and it marked his coming of age. At Epsom, according to his jockey, he had felt physically like a lanky teenager; at York he was a man. “He was up nearly 20kilos from the Derby,” reported trainer Aidan O’Brien, “and that’s a lot. He’d gained it in the last three weeks or so and I thought if he’d been beaten it might have been the trainer’s fault for letting him get too heavy.” O’Brien senior may not have been giving out the most positive vibes in the build-up to the contest, and perhaps as a result Australia started at a pretty generous 8-13 favourite to dispose of his six rivals, headed by Telescope and Mukhadram, second and third to Oaks heroine Taghrooda in the King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes a month earlier. But on the day, once the stalls opened, confidence abounded, at least from the saddle. O’Brien junior, perched on a saddle so small it was little more than a surcingle, let Australia lob along in last place as his stablemate Kingfisher set a sound gallop. In the straight, O’Brien eased his mount smoothly into the clear down the centre of the course and once the classy colt hit full stride he picked off Mukhadram and Telescope, by then settling to their private rematch, at will. Driven out, Australia was followed in at a respectful 2l by another three-year-old, the Prix du Jockey-Club winner The Grey Gatsby, with four-year-old Telescope third. “I didn’t really have a moment’s worry throughout,” confirmed O’Brien. The son of Galileo hardly looked

Australia, whose performance at York gave credence to O’Brien’s view that he is the best he has trained, has much more speed than either of his parents Bunteresque, but O’Brien senior’s reiteration afterwards that he was really ready only for a racecourse gallop (some bit of exercise – the richest race ever run at York was worth £453,680 to the winner...!) implies considerable physical improvement to come. The mental maturity has been there a while; the chestnut – like so many by his sire – has an unflappable, professional temperament, visible not only during the International, but on the way to the start as he remained unfazed by the discomfort of his bit becoming dislodged through his mouth. Australia is the fifth Derby winner (of only eight to have tried) to win the International since its inception in 1972 when it was developed as a bridge between the elite middle-distance programmes of high summer and autumn. The first was Roberto, who famously beat Brigadier Gerard in the race’s inaugural edition, followed by Troy (1979), Authorized (2007) and Sea The Stars (2009). The failures were Dr Devious, fourth in 1992, Benny The Dip (third in 1997) and New Approach, third when the race was transferred to Newmarket in 2008. Australia’s stated next target is the Irish Champion Stakes in September, which offers another 1m2f Group 1 prize and the chance to avenge his sire’s head defeat in the race. Sea The Stars went from York to Leopardstown, and if Australia were to continue on the same route, the Prix de l’Arc De Triomphe would be next. But with two Derbys in the bag, another 1m4f venture for Australia is not seen as a commercial imperative, even though a failure

“

An Australia showdown with Guineas runner-up Kingman, now established as the season’s top miler, in the Queen Elizabeth II Stakes at Ascot... now that would be a proper challenge to win at less at the top level does not seem to have done Galileo any harm as a stallion, and an Arc success has not blighted Sea The Stars in his second career. Australia, whose performance at York gave credence to O’Brien’s view that he is the best he has trained, has much more speed than either of his parents – his dam Ouija Board won her seven Group 1s between 1m2f and 1m4f – and a top-level victory over a mile is still missing from his CV. An Australia showdown with Guineas runner-up Kingman, now established as the season’s top miler, in the Queen Elizabeth II Stakes at Ascot... now that would be a proper challenge. The International provided a clean sweep for Coolmore, with The Grey Gatsby being by the operation’s young gun Mastercraftsman and Telescope by Galileo. And the week’s second Group 1 prize, the Yorkshire Oaks, also went to County Tipperary, though much less predictably as Tapestry – another by Galileo – provided one of the upsets of the season by beating 1-5 favourite Taghrooda. The Oaks heroine had followed her Epsom romp by beating Telescope and Mukhadram in the King George, but there were no excuses proffered as her unbeaten run came to an end. She moved smoothly to the lead 2f out, but was run out of the prize close home by Tapestry, brought by Ryan Moore with a sustained run from the back of the field in the straight. The pair drew 7l clear of third-placed Tasaday. Tapestry, one of last year’s top juvenile fillies, actually started favourite for the 1,000 Guineas, but trailed in last and was patently not herself that day. It was through the period

Taghrooda is by Sea The Stars out of Ezima, whose dam Ezilla is a sister to Estimate’s dam Ebaziya when O’Brien reported that he was not happy with the health status of his horses. Since then she has progressed physically, and for the step up to a 1m4f. She had been most unlucky not to notch her first Group 1 success in the Irish Oaks, beaten only a closing neck by stablemate Bracelet, despite her saddle having slipped right back to her rump after she stumbled leaving the stalls. Like the International, the Yorkshire Oaks emphasised the quality of this year’s threeyear-olds, with Tasaday the best of the fouryear-olds, two places in front of last year’s Oaks winner Talent. And like Australia, Tapestry lacks nothing in pedigree. Her dam Rumplestiltskin was a dual Group 1 winner of the Moyglare Stud Stakes and Prix Marcel Boussac, and is out of Monevassia, a Mr. Prospector sister to Kingmambo out of that paragon on the track and in the paddocks, Miesque. Coincidentally,

Rumplestitskin also ran unplaced as favourite for her Guineas, her last racecourse appearance. Despite its apparently straightforward contours, the Knavesmire is a track where the formbook does not always provide the answer and of the 22 Oaks winners who have turned out in the Yorkshire Oaks since the race became a Group 1 with the birth of the Pattern in 1971, Taghrooda was the 14th to be beaten. The most recent to complete the double was Alexandrova in 2006. Taghrooda’s family had to settle for second spot again in the Lonsdale Stakes (G2), as Estimate found Pale Mimosa half a length too good over the 2m. Taghrooda is by Sea The Stars out of Ezima, whose dam Ezilla is a sister to Estimate’s dam Ebaziya. It was, however, a welcome bounce back to form for the 2013 Gold Cup heroine, whose Goodwood Cup flop after her valiant effort to retain her

Ascot crown had been disappointing. In the Lonsdale Stakes the two five-yearold mares finished clear of the males, who were headed by Times Up. The lightly-raced Pale Mimosa is by Singspiel out the winning Danehill mare Katch Me Katie, a half-sister to Oaks runner-up Kalypso Katie. Amongst the sprinters there is a tendency to share the season’s spoils turn and turn about, but there can be few in the division who, given the right conditions, can be relied on more than Sole Power, now a dual Nunthorpe Stakes hero and the first to regain the York speed crown. The admirable seven-year-old gelding relishes 5f on a sound surface, and a strong pace to give him targets up front. His style, though, comes with risks, for late pouncers from the bustle of the pack also need luck in running. This time the break was late in coming, but Richard Hughes’s nerve in the saddle is as effective as the turbo-boost under it and, after realigning his aim a couple of times, Sole Power flashed to the front in the last two strides to thwart Stepper Point for the second time in as many runs. In the Group 1 King’s Stand Stakes at Ascot, Sole Power beat his rival by a length

Tiggy Wiggy gives sire Kodiac a first juvenile Group race winner There would not be many who would argue that the standout juvenile performance at York came from Tiggy Wiggy, who lowered the two-yearold track record in the Group 2 Lowther Stakes. The Richard Hannon-trained filly is phenomenally fast and although her biggest payday came with her 6l rout of her rivals in the Weatherbys Super Sprint at Newbury, she is classy too, and represents some of the season’s best two-year-old filly form. The daughter of Kodiac has been on the go since she made her debut on the All-Weather in March, and has just got better and better since going down by a neck to Anthem Alexander when she stepped up to Group 2 company in the Queen Mary Stakes. She took her revenge on her Ascot conqueror at York, with the pair split by Albany Stakes winner Cursory Glance, the form of whose Royal meeting success was boosted when fourth-placed Malabar easily took the Group 3 Prestige Stakes. Tiggy Wiggy, out of a half-sister to Norfolk Stakes winner Masta Plasta (see mare of the month, page 70), coped with the step up to 6f but that looks as far as her comfort zone extends. This season’s plans include the Group 1 Cheveley Park Stakes and a tilt at her elders in the Prix de l’Abbaye, with the new Group 1 three-year-old sprint at Royal Ascot her target next year. By contrast Cursory Glance, by Distorted Humor out of a 1m2f winner from Time Charter’s family, is the early favourite for the 1,000 Guineas. Kodiac, no more than a smart sprint handicapper, is beginning to really find his feet in his second career at Tally Ho Stud, and it is likely to get better with his ongoing better books. He currently tops the juvenile standings and

www.internationalthoroughbred.net

notched a second Group winner in three days when six-year-old Jamesie, from his first crop, inched out Gordon Lord Byron in a Group 3 sprint at the Curragh. Kodiac is, of course, a Danehill half-brother to proven top-class stallion Invincible Spirit. Amazingly, he had not produced a Group race winner before these two successes in the same week in August Tiggy Wiggy, a £41,000 yearling, and the Lonsdale Stakes heroine Pale Mimosa, provided a York Group 2 double for Texan businessmen John Moores and Charles Noell, who have a significant stake in both under their Merriebelle Stables banner. The Group 2 Gimcrack Stakes, in which Muhaarar beat Jungle Cat a nose, paid a generous compliment to Tiggy Wiggy’s stablemate Ivawood, who trounced the pair (in reverse order) in the Group 2 July Stakes at Newmarket and then extended his superiority over Jungle Cat in the Group 2 Richmond Stakes. Muhaarar, homebred by Hamdan Al Maktoum, provided some slight compensation for Taghrooda’s shock Yorkshire Oaks defeat. The colt, by Oasis Dream, is another with few pretensions beyond the sprinting ranks, having found 7f at Ascot too far on his previous run. Dutch Connection, also trained by Charlie Hills, will test his Classic credentials next time after coping with the step up to Group 3 company from his eyecatching maiden success at Goodwood. The scopey son of Dutch Art took the 7f Listed Acomb Stakes (in which The Grey Gatsby ran second last year) by only a head, but a comfortable enough one, doing all his best work at the end. He now has the Dewhurst Stakes (G1) pencilled in.

gb racing and a quarter – at York it was only half a length, but a cosy enough one in a finish where the first nine home were split by 2l. “He’s just brilliant,” said Hughes of his equine kindred spirit, “and just made for me. When I was younger I used to dream of riding horses like this one, and doing it like this.” Amazingly, Sole Power shrugged off a post-Ascot attack of ringworm to take his fourth Group 1, a sequence that started in the Knavesmire showpiece in 2010. Then, he caused a 100-1 shock as he beat Starpangledbanner, this time he was shown due respect as the 11-4 favourite. His victory made it four from four for trainer Eddie Lynam and owners the Power family in Britain’s top-level sprints this year, Slade Power having taken the Golden Jubilee Stakes and July Cup. Sole Power and Stepper Point (who held second by inches from Extortionist, the bestplaced three-year-old) are both by Kyllachy, winner of the Nunthorpe in 2002 and himself a son of the 1996 winner Pivotal.

he Great Voltigeur Stakes lost much of its gloss when Derby runner-up Kingston Hill was a late withdrawal because of too-fast ground, but regained some due to the most impressive winner in Postponed. The Group 2 contest is pretty much the best St Leger trial but, ironically, Postponed was the only member of the field not in the final Classic, nor is he likely to be supplemented. Andrea Atzeni is Kingston Hill’s regular partner, but his retainer with Sheikh Mohammed Obaid Al Maktoum had put him, serendiptitously as it turned out, on Postponed. Trainer Luca Cumani feels the progressive son of Dubawi, who readily quickened away from Snow Sky, is potentially a high-class 1m4f performer. The colt, a 360,000gns yearling, is out of a winning daughter of high-class juvenile Bianca Nera, who took the Moyglare Stud Stakes (G1) after winning the Lowther Stakes (G2) at York. Kingston Hill remains favourite for the St Leger, in front of Derby third Romsdal and Eagle Top, who beat subsequent Secretariat Stakes winner Adelaide (another top-level strike for Galileo) in the King Edward VII Stakes and went on to run fourth in the King George. Snow Sky, winner of two Classic trials and fourth in the Royal Ascot contest, was the only one to give Postponed a race at York and thus enhanced his own St Leger claims.

Jockey hopping At York, jockeys were in the spotlight as much as the horses, most notably Jamie Spencer due to his bombshell announcement that he intends to retire from the saddle at the end of the season to take up a management role with his current employers, Qatar Racing. Spencer, 34, has been champion twice in Britain, once in Ireland and was champion Irish apprentice. He has ridden top-class winners all over the world, including his first Classic winner, Tarascon in the Irish 1,000 Guineas, at the age of 17. His talent as a horseman and jockey has been unquestionable from the start. He operated as a freelance before joining Sheikh Fahad Al Thani’s operation on a two-year contract at the start of last year and promptly won the Irish 1,000 Guineas on Just The Judge. Other significant successes for the Qataris include Kiyoshi in the Albany Stakes, Hot Streak in the Cornwallis Stakes and Side Glance in the Mackinnon Stakes at Flemington and last year’s domestic seasonal total of 107 gave him a ninth successive century. This year has not been so successful, so far at least, for either the rider or the those behind him. The likeable Spencer is one of the weighing room’s brightest and most insightful and knows perfectly that race-riding is not a lifetime job and that there is life away from the track. His change of direction – he will still be among horses, riding behind the scenes and be part of an enthusiastic and committed elite team – may be just what he needs right now. No matter what an individual’s innate talent, life as a top sportsman brings its treadmill pressures as well as rewards. Spencer has been doing his present job for nearly 20 years and his switch will, presumably, secure his and his family’s future. Racegoers will miss his presence, even though he is very much considered a “Marmite” jockey (his last-to-first swoop on Mind Of

Becoming one of the management: Jamie Spencer is swapping his silks for a suit

Madness on York’s final day was a typical ride, on this occasion a nose the right way). And it may just prove that a change is as good as a rest. Spencer will be replaced by one of the brightest young talents among his colleagues, Andrea Atzeni. The 23-year-old Italian currently rides for Roger Varian and Sheikh Mohammed Obaid Al Maktoum, for which owner he was on the mark on Postponed at York. He is in the top ten on the seasonal leaderboard. The sport’s fastest-growing operation has snapped up another rising star, 18-year-old Oisin Murphy, as number two in the shake-up, replacing Harry Bentley. The young Irishman, attached so far to Andrew Balding’s yard, shot to prominence last year with a fourtimer at Ayr that included the Ayr Gold Cup on Highland Colori. He was on the mark at York for his current boss on Absolutely So in the City Of York Stakes. Another teenager, Louis Steward, proved a supersub on Mutual Regard in the Ebor Handicap for trainer Johnny Murtagh and, in particular, owner Andrew Tinkler. With the trainer’s own 5lb claimer suspended, Tinkler did his homework, looked at the stats and came up with Steward, based with Michael Bell in Newmarket. And the 19-year-old coolly grabbed the opportunity to showcase his talent in some style to win the historic contest, one of the few prestige prizes missing from Murtagh’s record as a jockey.

Wet weather dominated the August Deauville meeting...

...but the brilliant Kingman made light of the heavy ground in the Marois

ingman confirmed his position as the best miler in Europe and Esoterique returned to her best to win the Prix Rothschild (G1), but unfortunately the beginning of Deauville’s August meeting was dominated by the weather, writes Jocelyn de Moubray. Heavy rain in Deauville in August is not an unknown, but this year the deluge hardly seemed to stop and by the second weekend the ground was not just heavy but also cut up. In every race the jockeys zigzagged across the track in search of ground not completely churned up. Kingman had already won the Irish Guineas on heavy ground and with the weather reducing the field to only five, Prince Khalid Abdullah’s son of Invincible Spirit started a long odds-on favourite for the Group 1 Prix Jacques le Marois Fresnay le Buffard on August 17. None of his four opponents are confirmed mud lovers and the race was set up for Kingman to show his exceptional speed. The first 3f were run at a very sedate pace with Red Dubawi, who has shown his best form when coming with a late run, in front followed by the filly Rizeena with Kingman held up in last. There can be no doubt that however good Kingman is as a miler, he would be equally effective over shorter distances as he showed fantastic acceleration to come past the field in the last 2f recording two sub 12-second fractions. Kingman was a comfortable two and a half length winner from Anodin and Olympic Glory, but impressive as it was to watch and as brilliant as the fractions were at the end of the race, this was not the most competitive

www.internationalthoroughbred.net

Jacques le Marois of recent times and the race was not a severe test for the John Gosdentrained champion. Kingman would have faced a sterner test if Edouard de Rothschild’s Esoterique had been allowed to take her chance. The André Fabre-trained daughter of Danehill Dancer had beaten Integral at Newmarket in May and confirmed that form when coming from behind to beat her stable companion, the 1,000 Guineas winner Miss France, and Integral again in the Group 1 Prix Rothschild at the beginning of August. After a narrow defeat in the Poule d’Essai des Pouliches at three, Esoterique disappointed in the Diane and was then off the track with serious health problems for the remainder of her three-year-old season. She did not start as a two-year-old either and won her first Group 1 on her ninth career start. She is likely to add to this tally this year and possibly next as she is probably going to stay in training as a five-year-old. She looks to be both the fastest and the best of the progeny of her extraordinary dam Dievotchka, who produced her at the age of 21. She is a daughter of Dancing Brave who was purchased as a yearling at Keeneland July from Windfields Farm; all names from a different era. She was in training with Luca Cumani in Newmarket, but never raced and didn’t get in-foal until she was five. Her first 12 foals include six Group or stakes winners – Russian Hope, Russian Hill, Russian Desert and Russian Cross, Archange d’Or and Esoterique. Before Esoterique her progeny had been at their best over 1m2f or further, but Dievotchka’s daughter of Danehill Dancer has an exceptional turn of foot when held up for a late run.

Despite the ground conditions, which came in for criticisim from some quarters, the racing at Deauville as always attracted top-class participants and has set the scene for the autumn championships

euro racing The French-trained three-year-old colts have not looked to be a particularly strong group this year and with Karakontie and Ectot both temporarily on the sidelines, the Group 2 Prix Guillaume d’Ornano gave the others a chance to shine. It was an opportunity seized by Gailo Chop, a gelding by Deportivo who has been owned by a partnership between his breeder Alain Chopard and the Australian OTI partnership since winning two Group races at Longchamp in the spring. Soft or heavy ground is no problem for him and with the two favourites Prince Gibraltar and Western Hymn being held up almost certainly too far back, the Antoine de Watrigrant-trained colt made all of the

“

Siyouni confirmed his position amongst Europe’s leading first-season sires in August as the son of Pivotal had two stakes winners in Deauville running and won unchallenged by 3l from Free Port Lux, Prince Gibraltar and Western Hymn. He is likely to be rested now to be prepared for an Australian campaign in 2015. Chopard is one of France’s most successful breeders – by mid-August horses bred by his

Haras des Faunes had won 28 races and €1.4 million in prize-money and premiums putting him in fourth place in the breeders’ table behind only the Aga Khan, the Wertheimer brothers and Elizabeth Vidal. Nearly all of his horses run in his own colours and are by one of the five stallions based at his farm, which is only a few kilometers from Bordeaux. He currently stands Deportivo, Captain Chop, Maiguri, Muhaymin and Panis, none of them well known names in the world of commercial breeding but all have produced, or will in the future, good winners for Chopard, his friends and his clients. A possible new contender for top honours among France’s three-year-old colts is the Haras de Saint Pair’s Monsun home-bred Vadamos, an easy winner of a Listed race in Vichy at the end of July. Since moving up to run over 1m3f, the Francois Rohaut-trained colt has yet to be headed in a race and the manner of his victory in Vichy suggests he could, like many of his sire’s best, develop into a top class horse as a four-year-old. He is a son of the Peintre Celebre mare Celebre Vadala, a stakes winner from the family of Valixir, Vadawina, Vazira, Veda and many other top class performers for Jean-Luc Lagardère and the Aga Khan. The Aga Khan’s Siyouni confirmed his position amongst Europe’s leading firstseason sires in August as the son of Pivotal had two stakes winners in Deauville. The Aga Khan’s filly Ervedya remained unbeaten after three starts with an easy victory in the 6f Group 3 Prix Cabourg. The Jean Claude Rouget-trained filly is by far the best of the four foals of racing age produced by the King’s Best mare Elva. The same is true of Chris Wright’s homebred filly Souvenirdelondres, who broke her maiden when coming from behind to win the Listed Prix de la Vallee d’Auge over 5f. The Jonathan Pease-trained filly is Dilag’s fifth foal of racing age and although I’m So Glad, her Clodovil foal of 2009 was stakes-placed, this is her first black-type winner. Siyouni is

...the Niarchos family’s More Than Ready colt Nucifera, could well be the best two-year-old seen out in France so far this year

Avenir Certain cooling off after her straightforward Group 2 Prix de la Nonette victory: she was shortened to 10-1 for the Arc

already oversubscribed for the 2015 season, despite the fact that the Haras de Bonneval hasn’t decided upon his fee, let alone announced it. Pease is among the top 20 trainers in France, despite having run only 26 different horses by mid-August. Aside from Souvenirdelondres his stable also includes the Niarchos family’s More Than Ready colt Nucifera, who could well be the best two-year-old colt seen out in France so far. Nucifera completed a hat-trick of victories when coming from behind and racing away from a strong field to win the 7f Listed Prix Francois Boutin. Boutin did, of course, train and buy many of the Niarchos family’s best winners and this first win in the race was clearly an important triumph for them. Nucifera is the first foal of the unraced Kingmambo mare Lotus Sutra, while his fourth dam Aviance won the Phoenix Stakes in the same colours in 1984. There are two candidates to take on Nucifera in the autumn Group 1s. The first is Godolphin’s Territories, a son of Invincible Spirit trained by Fabre, who had beaten Souvenirdelondres at Chantilly and was taken out of the Francois Boutin because of the state of the ground. The second is Joe Allen’s Medaglia d’Oro colt Romeo Lima. It is never easy to judge the quality of races for unraced horses, but few are won in such a spectacular manner and

he strolled 10l clear of his rivals over 6f at Deauville at the beginning of August. Finally, Avenir Certain continued her march to the Arc de Triomphe with an untroubled success in the Group 2 Prix de la Nonette, taking her record to six wins from six starts. The race was something of a shoe-in for her as the conditions did not penalise her for any of her Group 1 victories. However, she had to cope with the ground and although she did lose her footing twice, she gained a cosy length and a half victory from Crisolles, who gave sire Le Havre a one-two.

Developing German strength in depth

The German Classic generation of 2014 looks to be getting stronger and stronger as the weeks and big races go by. Amongst the fillies, Wunder (Adlerflug) was a Group winner at Chantilly in July and Indian Rainbow (Indian Haven) came close to defying a penalty in the Group 3 Prix de Lieury in Deauville in August. But good as these two fillies are, they are not the best trained in Germany. Over a mile the Rock Of Gibraltar filly Ajaxana looked markedly superior when winning the German 1,000 Guineas from Diamond Dove and Indian Rainbow. Diamond Dove, a daughter of Dr Fong trained by Andreas Lowe, was second again in the Group 1 Preis der Diana at Dusseldorf

at the beginning of August, beaten 2l by Gestüt Etzean’s Lord Of England filly, who was making her first start for her new trainer Andreas Wöhler. If the fillies are clearly up to competing in the best races outside Germany, the colts could, of course, be better still. Sea The Moon continues his Arc preparation in Markus Klug’s Röttgen stables, but two of the colts he thrashed in Hamburg have won Group races since. Lucky Lion, second and a full 11l behind Sea The Moon in the Derby, quickened past Noble Mission to win the Group 1 Grosser Dallmayr-Preis-Bayerisches Zuchtrennen in Munich at the end of July over 1m2f. A few weeks later Eric, fourth in the Derby beaten 14l, won the 1m2f Group 3 Grosser Preis Der Sparkasse Krefeld. Both Lucky Lion, a son of High Chaparral trained like Indian Rainbow and Diamond Dove by Andreas Lowe, and Eric, a son of Tertullian trained by Christian won der Recke, are better suited to 1m2f than the Derby trip, but nobody can say that Sea The Moon beat moderate horses to win his Derby. Lowe also won another Group 1 race with a three-year-old when Sirius, a son of Dashing Blade bred by Etzean, won the Group 1 Grosser Preis Von Berlin over 1m4f in Berlin in August, the beaten horses including last year’s Derby winner Lucky Speed.

Lukas returns to his Lady

EMBERS of the Take Charge Lady clan have been important assets to the D. Wayne Lukas barn over the past two years, gifting the legendary conditioner Will Take Charge and his promising juvenile Take Charge Brandi. It was no surprise to see him and the pair’s owner, Willis Horton, return to the well so vigorously at Saratoga early last month, writes Nancy Sexton. Armed with a greater insight than most of the family, Lukas stretched all the way to $1,250,000 during the second night to secure the auction sale-topper, a War Front grand-daughter of Take Charge Lady out of Charming. As he signed the ticket, Lukas expressed his high regard for the filly’s two-year-old halfsister Take Charge Brandi, at that point just coming off a runner-up effort in the Grade 3 Schuylerville Stakes at Saratoga. Charming herself commanded $3,200,000 from Todd Pletcher at the 2006 Keeneland September Sale and as the first foal out of triple Grade 1 winner Take Charge Lady, a

...Charming’s filly was one of only two yearlings catalogued by War Front and she was always going to be one of the more coveted lots of the sale $4,200,000 mare purchase by Eaton Sales in 2004, Charming has been a collectors’ item throughout her life. A daughter of Seeking The Gold, Charming initially lived up to her promise, winning well first time out as a two-year-old at Keeneland in the colours of James Scatuorchio. A share subsequently changed hands, sold to Michael Tabor, but her career ended abruptly two starts later at Monmouth Park when she was

injured in the Serena’s Song Stakes. Since then the family has flourished thanks to her siblings, who are led by last year’s champion Will Take Charge, winner of the 2013 Clark Handicap and third in last month’s Whitney Handicap just days before the sale. Take Charge Lady is also the dam of Take Charge Indy, winner of the 2012 Florida Derby. Add in the fact that Charming’s filly was one of only two yearlings catalogued by War Front and she was always going to be one of the more coveted lots of the sale. The lack of international interest at the sale, notably from European and Japanese buyers (Blandford Bloodstock was the only European bloodstock agency to sign for a lot, going to $600,000 for a War Front filly), was offset by robust competition from domestic buyers. Gross sales of $33,284,000 were recorded over the two sessions, up 4.4 per cent from 2013 when six fewer horses were sold. The average of $291,965 represented a minimal one per cent drop from last year, while the median fell five per cent to $237,500. Against

Results from the Saratoga Selected Sale were pretty much on a par with 2013... despite the absence of many European and Japanese buyers

The trainer goes to £1.25 million for the grand-daughter of Take Charge Lady that, a total of 14 horses sold for $100,000 or more compared to 13 in 2013. The talking point during the first session was the ten per cent buyback rate. Although a sluggish start to the second day saw that healthy figure rise, the sale ended with a respectable 114 lots out of 141 reported as sold, resulting in a buyback rate of 19.1 per cent. Another welcome element was the return of John Ferguson to the buyers’ docket. Formerly the dominant buyer at this sale, notably when walking away with $8,530,000 worth of yearlings in 2011, Ferguson signed for just one yearling at last year’s renewal. Although he was not present at this year’s sale, Ferguson’s

name appeared against 11 yearlings worth a total of $4,675,000 led by the only Bernardini catalogued, a colt from Gainesway who cost $800,000. His expenditure accounted for 14 per cent of the entire sale aggregate. While War Front’s international profile continues

to gain momentum, the American season belongs to Gainesway Farm’s Tapit. Already the sire of nine Graded stakes winners this year, Tapit is deservedly reaching even greater commercial heights, as illustrated by the fact that he returned an average of $1,075,000 for two yearlings sold at Saratoga. Alex Solis and Jason Litt signed on behalf of an undisclosed client for a Tapit filly out of 2009 champion two-year-old filly She Be Wild, who topped the first evening when selling for $1,150,000. Bluewater Sales sold the filly on behalf of breeders Mike and Nancy Mazzoni. Only five years ago, the Mazzonis were prompted to retain their homebred She Be Wild after the daughter of Offlee Wild failed to sell for $19,000 as a two-year-old. Within months her value had multiplied following a championship two-year-old season that was capped by a victory in the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies at Santa Anita. Tapit was also responsible for a filly out of Rote – a half-sister to Grade 1 winner D. Wayne Lukas signed for this top lot daughter of War Front, out of Charmed: it is a family he knows very well

www.internationalthoroughbred.net

“

By Tapit, this daughter of She Be Wild fetched $1,250,000 – the top three lots at the Saratoga Selected Sale were all fillies

Magnificent Song – who sold for $1,000,000 to Nat Rea’s Regis Farms. Offered by Bluegrass Thoroughbred Services, the grey had been a bold $550,000 Keeneland November pinhook by Merriebelle Stable, the nom de plum of John Moore and Charles Noell, who are best known in Europe as the recent purchasers of the Kilfrush Stud stock.

Offlee Wild gets first Grade 1 winner

While Offlee Wild’s daughter She Be Wild enjoyed success in the sale ring, the former Darley stallion struck on the track as the sire of easy Grade 1 Haskell Invitational winner Bayern. Despite facing the likes of Untapable, who was coming off a near 10l score in the Coaching Club American Oaks, as well as Belmont Stakes third Medal Count, Bob Baffert’s colt was gifted an easy lead under Martin Garcia and stretched clear to win by seven and a quarter lengths. A first Grade 1 winner by Offlee Wild, who stands for $4,000 at Pin Oak Lane Farm in Pennsylvania, he was bred in Kentucky by Helen Alexander out of Alittlebitearly – so named because she was foaled on December 14, 2002. This is one of the strongest families in the American Stud Book. The unraced Alittlebitearly is a Thunder Gulch half-sister to Bertolini and out of Aquilegia, an Alydar

sister to champion Althea. Her grand-dam is blue hen Courtly Dee, also the ancestress of Green Desert, Arch and this year’s Japanese Derby winner One And Only. At Saratoga, front-running tactics were also successful in the case of Southern Equine’s homebred Moreno, who held off Itsmyluckyday and Will Take Charge to take the Grade 1 Whitney Handicap for Eric Guillot. Palace Malice, winner of the Metropolitan Handicap in June, failed to fire as the 13-20 favourite in sixth. Moreno hails from the fourth crop of Adena Springs’ Ghostzapper, bred when the 2004 American Horse of the Year stood for $125,000. The son of Awesome Again actually started stud life at a fee of $200,000 and sired a Grade 1 winner, Blue Grass Stakes scorer Stately Victor, in his first crop. However, he was the only Grade 1 winner out of that first group of 81 foals and by 2011 Ghostzapper was available for $20,000. The situation has improved since then, however. Moreno is Ghostzapper’s sixth Grade 1 winner in six crops and his fee has headed back up to $50,000. The Saratoga meeting has also been kind to Ghostzapper’s half-brother City Zip, whose son Palace became his third Grade 1 winner in the Alfred G. Vanderbilt Handicap. The fiveyear-old was claimed by his present trainer

Linda Rice for just $20,000 at Belmont Park in October 2012; since then he has won a further nine races in the silks of Antonino Miuccio. Victory in the Alfred G. Vanderbilt saw his earnings break the million dollar barrier. The news that Hard Spun is returning from Japan to stand at Darley in Kentucky for 2015 was announced shortly after his son Wicked Strong returned to winning ways in the Grade 2 Jim Dandy Stakes at Saratoga. Winner of the Wood Memorial (G1) at Aqueduct in April, Wicked Strong was fitted with first-time blinkers by Jim Jerkens following his fourth-placed effort behind Tonalist in the Belmont Stakes and the colt duly turned in an improved effort to turn the tables on his Belmont conqueror. The Hard Spun news was even more opportune with the victory of Hardest Core in the Grade 1 Arlington Million – one of the few stallions over that weekend to hold the flag aloft for the domestic stallions. Fellow Darley stallion Street Sense, another who recently spent a season in Japan, was also on the mark as the sire of Test Stakes heroine Sweet Reason. Leah Gyarmati’s filly sprang to prominence at Saratoga last year when successful in the Spinaway Stakes and, by taking the Test, she became the first filly since Numbered Account in 1972 to pull off the Spinaway Stakes-Test Stakes double. Among the younger generation of sires, the fast start made by 2010 Kentucky Derby winner Super Saver has set tongues wagging. Progeny of the WinStar Farm stallion have been particularly well showcased during the Saratoga meeting, where his quartet of firstcrop winners include I Spent It, a $600,000 purchase out of this year’s Fasig-Tipton Florida Sale by Alex and JoAnn Lieblong who went some way to paying back that outlay when successful in the Grade 2 Saratoga Special Stakes.

Down to earth approach

Ivawood as a foal with dam Keenes Royale

As Lissa Oliver finds out, business partners Mary Davison and Debbie Kitchin are doing a pretty good, unflustered job of producing stakes horses

“

Kicking along,” is how Mary Davison describes the highly successful Catherinestown Stud that she owns and runs on the Meath Kildare border, an apt-enough description for a business currently booting home the winners. Racing and breeding is a business built largely on luck and chatting with Davison it’s clear she has a unique feel for fate’s ebb and flow, preferring to go with gut instinct, even if it does sometimes go against perceived wisdom. Her instinct has so far served her, and long-time business partner Debbie Kitchin, very well indeed and this season Catherinestown Stud is being ably advertised by the Group 2 July Stakes and Richmond Stakes winner Ivawood. The son of Zebedee was bred by the pair, with the foaling and

catherinestown stud sales’ prep carried out by Davison herself on the 100-acre farm. “My father [Walt Davison] was a vet and very much into bloodstock, he was a genius,” Davison says, adding: “He bred Bitty Girl, Steel Heart and Hot Spark and bred four Group winners one year. I didn’t appreciate it at the time, I was still at college and didn’t appreciate a lot of things, never mind Group winners!” When her father died, Davison took over the farm and her genial attitude and inherent passion for horses have shaped her path of success. “We’re a very small concern,” she says cheerfully, surprised by all the attention Ivawood has induced. “I only have 12 stables, but I’ve always hung in there and sometimes I’ve been at the bottom of the barrel and then something always comes along and brings you bobbing up to the top.” It’s a typically relaxed view, in what appears to be a wonderfully stress-free environment for horse and horsewoman at Catherinestown, but the fickle world of the sales ring is no respecter of shrewd planning and Davison’s inclination to roll with the tide

“

I have a theory that if the mare’s good enough she’ll breed a winner to any sire, so I’m not put off by going to a first-season sire and not plan too far ahead seems the ideal method. When good judgement is combined with that required luck the two become a potent force. “Just these last couple of years we’ve had some good times,” she says. “Well, we think so, we’re very easily pleased!” Davison first met Debbie Kitchin 16 years ago, when taking a half-share in a foal that Kitchin was having difficulty in selling at the time. The foal subsequently sold well and the pair have “kicked along” nicely ever since. Their combined sales record exemplifies

best business practice – successfully identifying the market and never falling to the temptation of over-breeding their mares. “I’ve never really had much luck using expensive stallions,” Davison says of the few €7,000 plus coverings she has used. “I don’t feel that going to expensive stallions is the answer. I have a theory that if the mare’s good enough she’ll breed a winner to any sire, so I’m not put off by going to a first-season sire and, if things go right, you can make unreal money at the sales.” She recognises that it’s very much a numbers’ game, so having a business partner increases the chances and eases the burden if things go the wrong way. The partnership had originally involved Davison preparing and selling Kitchin’s foals, but Davison made the suggestion that they go into partnership with some mares. “It’s very difficult to buy a winning mare by yourself,” points out Davison. “They sell for at least 20,000gns at Newmarket and then it’s nearer €30,000 by the time you’ve got her home.”

he partnership has so far belied those wise cautionary words and made it look almost easy, Keenes Royale being a classic case in point. The daughter of Red Ransom and Kinnaird failed to make her reserve at the Tattersalls December Sales, being led out unsold at 20,000gns in 2010. “She was a big strong mare and we liked the pedigree, so we risked it,” smiles her buyer. The mare duly ended up with the partnership, initially based with Kitchin in order to be prepared for covering. “Debbie lives in Sligo and Tally-Ho Stud is the closest to her,” explains Davison. “We went to have a look at the stallions and liked Zebedee, so that’s how that mating came about. “Goffs has also been a lucky stamping ground for us and that’s where the resulting colt foal, the first produce of Keenes Royale, ended up in November 2012, making a very pleasing €65,000 bought by Rathmoyle Exports Ltd. “He was a very big strong foal, like his dam,” remembers Davison of the colt subsequently named Ivawood and bought as a yearling by Amanda Skiffington for 220,000gns last autumn. His dam more or less followed him through the ring, making €48,000. “Debbie had

catherinestown stud hoped to buy her back, but when she made €48,000 we were both very happy,” Davison says wryly. “Luke Lillingston bought her and he said to me then ‘I don’t know why you’re selling this mare!’ How right he was!” One firm fan of the bigger mare was the late and much-missed Australian agent, David Medbury, who sourced and bought a number of mares for the two girls, including Keenes Royale. “We worked together. Debbie had always had small mares, but David felt that if we sent a big mare to a first-season sire, her first foal would be more likely then to be a bit bigger. The first year he bought us Frosted, a daughter of Dr Fong out of the Polar Falcon mare Arctic Air, a full-sister to Andronikos, and we sent her to Bushranger. The colt foal made €50,000 at Goffs and we were very happy with that.” Medbury was also instrumental in the purchase of Fire Up on behalf of Davison. She is by Motivator with the distinction of being a half-sister to Al Kazeem, and was bought in foal to Avonbridge. The result of the mating is the colt B Cosmos, who is now a promising juvenile in training with Willie McCreery. Fire Up’s half-brother duly picked up three Group 1 wins, with the recent unexpected possibility of a host more top level success to come in future. “I do love speed, but Fire Up was my first venture into middle-distance pedigrees” says Davison. “I sent her to Big Bad Bob, as I wanted something a bit middle-of-the-road for her. That colt foal made €95,000 last year at Goffs and Fire Up is now in-foal to Makfi having lost an Arcano foal this season – that is the downside of this business.” Davison and Kitchin currently share three mares: Decadence (Singspiel-Penny Cross (Efisio)), who is a half-sister to the Listed placed Penny Drops; Ten Commandments (Key Of Luck-Zoudie (Ezzoud)) and the recently purchased Reign (Elusive City-Joint Aspiration (Pivotal)), who Davison admits was something of a lucky find. “Friends bought her at Newmarket last autumn for 5,000gns,” reveals Davison. “They’d arrived over the night before and fog grounded all the aeroplanes on the morning of the sale so there was no one there! “They got her very cheap, along with a couple of others and were looking for a quick turn-around. We bought her this spring at Goffs.” The girls are currently planning to keep her, although they admit that they are happy

“

I kept a few families that my father had, but only one produced a Group winner and in the end I just had to move them on to operate a fairly flexible selling policy. This is exemplified by Lexi The Princess, by Holy Roman Emperor out of the Sadler’s Wells mare Star Profile, who was sold at the 2013 Goffs November Breeding Stock Sale for €120,000. The pair had bought her only a little earlier that year at Goffs February Sale for just €15,000. “We pushed our boundaries a bit, sending her to Dark Angel, who was standing then at €12,000,” Davison admits, “but sometimes you have to take a chance. We were lucky as Lethal Force then came along and we just thought that the time was right to reconsign

her and see what would happen. We put her in the sale and the rest, as they say, is history!” There are many happy accidents in the story of Catherinestown Stud, a testament to the fine eye and judgement of Davison and Kitchin, and much of that is due to the ideal partnership between the two. “Debbie preps the mares for the breeding season and she’s very good at getting them ready,” Davison explains. “I do the foaling and prepare them for the sales, which is my strength as I have great help in Sean Hanley, who has been part of my operation from the beginning… I make it sound so easy!” That was certainly the case until recently, but Davison admits: “Last year I said to Debbie that I didn’t want to foal any anymore, so we decided that I would keep one and she would keep one. “As we now have Reign, we’re considering selling Decadence, who is in-foal to Kodiac – we’ll enter her anyway,” she says. “Ten Commandments, who is in-foal to Elusive Pimpernel, will also be entered. “Hopefully, we’ll go shopping again and repeat the cycle. I kept a few families that my

father had, but only one produced a Group winner and in the end I just had to move them on,” says Davison commercial realism tempered with a tinge of sadness. “That is probably, if thinking about it, why I like to move mares on.” One mare who probably won’t be moving home is Baileys Cream, by Mister Baileys, who has been a grand performer for

aileys Cream’s Zebedee filly yearling made €47,000 last year as a foal, while her previous progeny made €72,000, €41,000 and €32,000. “I sent her to Invincible Spirit in his cheap year and the filly fetched €69,000, her foals normally sell well,” says Davison. While Baileys Cream and Ivawood have been doing much to advertise Catherinestown Stud of late, Davison has enjoyed plenty of past success and bred High Society, the dam of Society Rock. “I got her dam Ela’s Gold, who was a foal by Ela-Mana-Mou at the time, from my mother when she retired from the stud business. I sent her to Key Of Luck for her second covering – High Society was the

result. She was a good filly, who was a Listed winner and Group placed for Eddie Lynam.” This year the ring of loyalty went full circle – Baileys Cream was sent to visit Society Rock standing at Tally-Ho Stud. At the time of writing, Davison was planning to embark on yearling preparation the following day. “That’s the easy part,” she admits, “it’s getting them into sales that’s difficult. I prefer to sell foals, but a popular foal has a tough time at the sales – in and out, in and out all day being shown and then there’s the multiple scoping and groping of testicles for the colts. I was thinking of swinging back to selling yearlings; I’ve been advised not to, but then again I tend to do my own thing!” Following the yearlings, all attention will be focused on the sales foals. Davison is preparing two early colt foals for her business partner – a Kodiac out of Easy Times, from the family of Love Divine, and a Sir Prancealot colt who is out of the winning Green Desert mare Greenflash, from the family of Cadeaux Genereux. It is hoped the mare’s yearling of this year, a filly by Kodiac, will be heading into training with Richard Hannon, having been bought by Julie Woods as a foal at Goffs last autumn. “Yet more Tally-Ho stallions!” Davison laughs. The pair’s shared foals are a Dragon Pulse filly out of Decadence and a Casamento filly out of Ten Commandments, which along with Mary’s Roderic O’Connor colt foal out of Baileys Cream, are all to be consigned at Goffs. She will also be selling three NH-bred foals at Tattersalls Fairyhouse for longstanding clients. Davison and Kitchin share the ethic and enthusiasm of the typical small breeder, but if they continue to bob so high at the top of the barrel they may just have to revise their modest opinion of themselves. One thing is guaranteed, their attitude and gut instinct will never change. Long may it serve them well.

FEED THE DIFFERENCE

wayne lordan

Always doing his best Slade Power is giving jockey Wayne Lordan a fine season, writes Donn McClean

here was all the talk before the Diamond Jubilee Stakes at Royal Ascot in June. The Power double, they were saying. Sole Power, King’s Stand; Slade Power, Diamond Jubilee. No pressure. Or if there was, Wayne Lordan didn’t show it. His demeanour when Eddie Lynam gave him the leg up in the parade ring was as it always is – calm, relaxed, ready for the job that lay ahead. Same as it was when Fozzy Stack gave him the leg up on Wannabe Better in the parade ring at Leopardstown two days previously, before he went out and won the Group 3 Ballycorus Stakes on her. It is borne out of confidence. Confidence in his horse, confidence in himself. You’re always doing your best, he tells you. You’re always doing your job to the best of your ability. That’s all you can do. If you do that, you don’t need to feel any pressure. Lordan always had confidence in Slade Power, he always shared Eddie Lynam’s view that the son of Dutch Art was a Group 1 sprinter in-waiting. He had gone close. He had won a Group 2, finished second in a Group 1, but in the lead up

wayne lordan

The July Cup was there for Slade Power to lose, but the race worked out “perfectly” says jockey Wayne Lordan (opposite)

to the Diamond Jubilee, it all seemed to be falling into place. Slade Power had never been better. The performance that he had put up in winning the Greenlands Stakes on his seasonal debut four weeks earlier was one of the best of his life. Not only that, but Lordan had ridden him in his final piece of work before Royal Ascot, at Fairyhouse, on his own, and he had given him a feel that you don’t get too often. This horse was bursting with well-being and ready to run for his life. “I knew that there was plenty of pace on my side of the track,” recalls Lordan, “and I was always going to ride him the way that I rode him when he won the Group 2 race there on Champions’ Day last October; just behind the leaders.” It all went to plan. Astaire and Gordon Lord Byron took them along on the far side, as Lordan thought they would, and he just slotted in behind them. The front two came back to him a little earlier than ideal, and he found himself in front just inside the 2f pole, but at no stage did Lordan feel that he was going to get beaten. “I always felt that he had plenty left,” says the jockey. “I could hear the horses on the

“

I could hear the horses on the stands’ side coming towards me, but, once my fellow heard them, he picked up again stands’ side coming towards me, but, once my fellow heard them, he picked up again.” That was some feeling, Royal Ascot, a Diamond Jubilee Stakes, a Group 1 race. Slade Power’s first, Wayne Lordan’s third, and his fourth Royal Ascot win to go with Lolly For Dolly and Duntle (x two). “I love Royal Ascot. It has always been a good place for me.”

Born to the job

Wayne Lordan cannot remember a time when he didn’t want to be a jockey. Nine years old

when he started riding in pony races, he was small, smaller than most nine-year-olds, but he was well able to handle the animal beneath him even then. Trainer Thomond O’Mara spotted him, saw the youngster’s talent, and gave him his start as an apprentice. It was also O’Mara who made the introduction to Tommy and Fozzy Stack, and Lordan himself spent a couple of weeks during the summer as a 12-yearold working with David Wachman, then based at Carrick-on-Suir. He didn’t know it at the time, but he was putting in place the cornerstones for his career as a professional rider. His size is a massive asset. Or a diminutive asset, depending on your perspective. O’Mara remembers that there was an old teapot in the yard which young Lordan used to have stand on when he was putting a bridle on a horse. Lordan himself remembers a big wheelbarrow at Wachman’s in which he says could have lived! When he started riding, he could claim the maximum 10lb off bottom weight. Even now, he only just about gets the needle to go beyond 7st. He eats what he likes when he likes and he rides at whatever weight he likes.

www.internationalthoroughbred.net

wayne lordan No wasting, no worrying about diet. Perhaps that explains his constant demeanour, at ease with the world, comfortable in his own skin. A good lightweight apprentice who was getting plenty of rides and riding plenty of winners, he went to the US during the 2003-04 winter to hone his skills and he rode five winners under a claiming licence at Turfway Park. When he came back to Ireland, all set for the 2004 season, he couldn’t claim his 3lb any more, because he had ridden under a claiming licence in America. He should have had 13 winners left claiming 3lb. He should have been able to start the season with his claim, he should have been able to attract the rides that a good claiming rider attracts, build up the momentum through the season, the relationships with horses, the relationships with trainers. As it was, he kicked off the season from a standing start, with no competitive advantage over the top professionals – there was no reason why a trainer would choose the youngster over Michael Kinane or Pat Smullen. Predictably, he struggled. He did ride Tolpuddle to win the Irish Lincoln on the first day of the season, but he rode just 10 more winners for the remainder of the term. That said, it wasn’t all bad. He developed a great relationship with Tommy and Fozzy Stack, and he started riding for David Wachman. Things picked up, he rode 41 winners in 2005, and the upward trajectory has not stopped since. The high-class horses followed. Alexander

Tango, Myboycharlie, Walk On Bye, Unsung Heroine. Then, at York in 2010, he went and rode 100-1 shot Sole Power for Eddie Lynam, and won the Nunthorpe Stakes. “That was obviously brilliant,” he says. “My first Group 1 win. Although Sole Power was a 100-1 shot, we knew we were going there with a small chance, and the race just worked out perfectly for me.”

ole Power was effectively Lordan’s ride until the 2011 Nunthorpe Stakes, when he was required by Wachman to ride the exciting juvenile Requinto. Sole Power was actually scratched, the ground had gone too soft for him, but there was still that difficulty there. There was no falling out or anything, but Lordan has only ridden Sole Power once since. You know that there was no falling out because, when Slade Power – owned, like Sole Power, by David and Sabena Power and trained, like Sole Power, by Eddie Lynam – was getting going as a three-year-old sprinter, Lordan was the man who rode him. The Corkman was on board when Slade Power made his racecourse debut at The Curragh in May 2011, but he was away when the Dutch Art colt won at Dundalk the following December. “I was on honeymoon!” smiles Lordan. Pat Smullen rode him to victory then, and Johnny Murtagh rode him when he won at Cork in April 2012, but Lordan rode him at

Dundalk the following month, and he has ridden him in all 15 of his races since. So far, it has been some journey. “Slade has been brilliant for me,” he says, “and especially this summer – to win a Diamond Jubilee on him, and then to win a July Cup on him. I suppose when you are associated with a horse like that, people know you better. When there is a spare ride going, your name might be higher on the list than it would have been before.” Every rider needs the horses to carry him there, and Lordan has excelled on Slade Power. In the July Cup, he gave him the same keep-it-simple ride that he had given him at Ascot. Same methodology, same outcome. “There may have been a little more pressure going into the July Cup,” he confides. “He was the horse to beat, he was a warm favourite, so we were expected to win. And I was a little worried that there might not be that much pace on my side. In the end, though, it worked out perfectly.” A bout of ringworm has meant that Slade Power misses his intended engagement in the Sprint Cup at Haydock so will be heading straight to Australia to take on the best Antipodean sprinters in their own back yard. “The Australian plan is exciting,” says Lordan. “He has stepped forward from last year when he was second in the Sprint Cup. Mentally, he’s a stronger horse. Every horse has his year, and this year is Slade Power’s.” It’s also Lordan’s. Or one of Wayne Lordan’s.

Slade Power is missing Haydock for the Sprint Cup and goes straight to Australia to take on the southern-hemisphere sprint division at home

Thinking BIG

Last year’s top priced lot at the Tattersalls Ireland September Sale was bought to race in Poland. Lissa Oliver finds out more about the country’s developing racing industy

he racing industry can be a fickle creature and trends come and go quicker than high street fashions. China may well be the “New Black”, but there’s a wellestablished industry much nearer to home, upwardly mobile and with proof of a consistent rise only set to continue... Poland Evidence could be seen of this push to the top for the former Eastern bloc country at the Tattersalls Ireland September Sale in 2013. The top lot, a son of Yeats who fetched €180,000, was bought by the sale’s leading purchaser Lily Corporation, which purchased 12 horses for a spend of over €500,000. The Lily Corporation is the trading name of Ukrainian owner Konstantin Zgar, who has horses in training in Poland The rise of the influence of racing in Poland owes more than a little to Irish bloodstock agent Bobby O’Ryan and Indian racehorse owner Kishore Mirpuri. It would be hard to imagine a more enthusiastic arbiter of horseracing than Mirpuri and when his fervour is teamed with the obvious passion of O’Ryan it makes for an infectious mix. The fact that they have one of

Kishore Mirpuri and stud manager Zbigniew Górski: both are working hard to develop the sport

the best products in the racing world to sell makes it all the easier. There are currently 43 licensed trainers in Poland and the average weekly training fee per horse is comparable to €100. With stable staff earning €120-150 per week, it’s easy to see why keeping a horse in training in Poland is so affordable compared to elsewhere in Europe, where the average weekly training bill is €357. As is largely standard, the trainer receives 10 per cent of prize-money earned, a Polish Flat jockey, meanwhile, rides at a fee of €25, while the NH jockeys get €45. Both receive five per cent of the prize-money, and there are currently around 50 licensed jockeys. For those who argue that prize-money is the lifeblood of racing, look no further for supporting evidence than the healthy beating heart of Poland. In the past five years, including a negative dip in 2012, prize-money in Poland has increased by an average of 13.5 per cent. Last year saw a massive leap in

prize-money of over 30 per cent to €2 million, while owners of Polish-breds receive extra premiums of 17 per cent if finishing in the prize-money. The training costs recovered by each horse that has raced in Poland is the highest in Europe, as the table left indicates. Total prize-money in Poland over the past five years has consistently exceeded the equivalent of €1.2 million, with the average race worth €2,300 on the Flat and €1,950 over jumps. While NH racing isn’t anywhere near as popular as the Flat, both codes present viable opportunities for racehorse owners and it’s easy to see why Mirpuri had no shortage of takers for his hugely successful syndicates. The two tables opposite show exactly how tempting racehorse ownership in Poland can be. It wasn’t always the case and leading owner Mirpuri found things very different when he first moved to Poland, from India, not helped

polish racing when the sports’ organisers went bust in 2006-07. “When I first came to Poland in the late 1990s a lot of owners had gone out of the sport and I was very afraid that with no new faces it would become a dying scene,” he explains. “New faces are very important to keep the industry moving forward. A syndicate is a very good way of getting new owners, so I formed syndicates, tried to attract new people and let them see what fun it was to be involved.” Helping Mirpuri greatly in spreading the good word was Irish agent Bobby O’Ryan, who was introduced by Irish Thoroughbred Marketing (ITM) through Tattersalls Ireland’s sponsorship of a Warsaw race. “We were very lucky with the horses bought in Ireland and when people saw the horses doing well, more joined,” reveals Mirpuri. “But it’s all down to luck. I’m good friends with Arqana, too. Like any business, we’re all looking for value for money and it is just that there is more value for money in Ireland at the moment than France.”

attersalls Ireland have supported racing in Poland every year and sponsor a Listed two-year-old race every September before its sale, with an extra €3,000 voucher presented to the winning connections that can be redeemed at the sales. It would appear to be a good investment – 34 yearlings were bought to go to Poland at Tattersalls Ireland last September. “Probably in Poland today 60 per cent of racehorses are Irish, German and American,” continues Mirpuri. “The Polish initially never believed an Irish-bred horse could run well at a 1m4f, they thought they were all sprinters and milers! “The most prestigious Polish races that everyone wants to win are over 1m2f or further. It all comes down to numbers, as we buy more from Ireland we’re getting more winners and finding better stayers. “The Great Warsaw Cup (Wielka Warszawska) is the main race (2600m) and in 2012 the Irish-bred Camerun, by Singspiel, won. Last year it was a Polish-bred one-two (Patronus beating Kundalini), but they came from imported dams. The benefit of the Irish-bred horses is that they are early maturing and fast.” Second in the Great Warsaw Cup, as she

had been in the Polish Derby, was Polish Oaks winner Kundalini, bred and owned by Mirpuri. “She comes from a mare Bobby bought for me,” he tells us. “Most owners get into breeding because they have a filly in training and then what do you do with her? You start breeding. And then what do you do, but race what you breed. I can’t claim to be an expert, because breeding is all down to chance.”

Currently 492 mares are registered to visit the country’s 83 stallions, with an annual foal population of just over 300. As more new owners fetch their fillies home to breed from, and find places at stud for their colts, such as Derby and Great Warsaw Cup hero Patronus, who is by the popular Polish sire Ecosse, the future of Polish-breds looks hopeful. In addition, the country is one of Europe’s leaders in Arabian racing, staging over 200

polish racing Patronus won the Derby with Piotr Piątkowski riding

races a year for Arabs and boasting heavy Qatari and Abu-Dhabi involvement. The first Polish race was recorded in 1777 and the first regular organised racing began in 1841, but the modern Polish Jockey Club was established as recently as 2001. The Club is a state legal entity with its own seat in Warsaw. It is supervised by the agricultural minister, who is responsible for the appointment of the president and the Council of the Polish Jockey Club. Members of the Jockey Club Council serve a four-year office, while invited members serve for a year at a time, and last year Mirpuri was honoured to serve as an invited member. “The Jockey Club is very good,” he says in praise. “They are working with Totalizator Sportowy, who don’t have the experience and have made mistakes, but are learning from those mistakes and are really trying very hard and doing a good job. “They’re in a big deficit at the moment, the betting revenue is not big and it’s getting smaller. They’re losing €3-4 million a year, but they’re getting a lot of income from the Lottery, so it’s okay, and they’re committed to investing and supporting racing and know that the industry will improve and grow. Locally, the average Czech citizen probably supports racing more than the average Pole and goes racing more, but the Czech racing industry is looking at Poland with envy. “I worked very closely with the members of the Board of the Jockey Club and was asked to give my opinions,” he reveals. “Frankly, for a local breeder that is a great honour, especially as not so long ago I was bringing in foreign horses, which could be considered a bad thing to do and open to criticism, but

You have to bring in new bloodlines in order to keep going forward and improving the breed and progress was made as a result a few years on I am now praised for having fetched in valuable new bloodlines. “You do have to bring in new bloodlines in order to keep going forward and improving the breed and progress was made as a result. As in the Great Warsaw Cup, the first three home in the Polish Derby were Polish-bred, out of imported dams, and the dams had been bought to race in Poland. “The situation at the moment is very optimistic and the organiser of racing is the State Lottery company, Totalizator Sportowy, which provides a lot of the funding,” he continues. “Totalizator Sportowy have very big plans to redevelop the whole property of 130 hectares, which the racetrack occupies in the centre of Warsaw, into an entertainment sport complex with horseracing at its fore. It’s a €400 million investment plan handled by Pricewater-Cooper as their advisors, so it will be a big thing when finished.” For anyone who has recently visited the beautiful track at Warsaw this will come as a big surprise, because it’s already an architectural gem and could rightly be

described as state-of-the-art, despite being opened in 1939. Few racecourses could have stood the test of time better and the under-turf drainage system means the going is always near-perfect. There are also two other main tracks, Wroclaw in the south-west, which is making big headway since last year with the support of the city council, and a newly refurbished track in Sopot, on the seaside, which holds four race meetings during the summer.

big boost to Polish racing was the now defunct Racing Post Yearling Bonus Scheme. Instead of the three €10,000 bonuses it was divided into six at €5,000 per bonus. “I was the only person to request this and it makes it last a bit longer,” Mirpuri points out. “In these days you can buy a horse for €3-6,000 so it keeps the game going round longer. Few of the winning owners cashed it in, most have gone and spent it on more horses, so it was good and helped both sides.” The passion for racehorse ownership hasn’t only been ignited at the lower end of the market. Last autumn the first horse in four years to fetch six figures at the Tattersalls Ireland September Yearling Sale was a €110,000 son of Tamayuz, who was knocked down to agent Ananios Antoniadis for the Lily Corporation, which then picked up the record-breaking Yeats colt. Efforts are also being made to boost racecourse attendances, with families encouraged and picnic areas and children’s activities provided. What can often be seen as “the boring” period between each race is being made more exciting with pony rides and entertainment. Mirpuri, too, is doing his utmost to make racing a long-term attraction. “Anyone can come to the track, but no one knows much about racing or how to become involved in ownership. I say, be an owner and have fun! Knowledge is power! When I meet with people new to racing I thrust a catalogue in their hand. “Everyone has to have a catalogue, I keep forcing them to read one! I start by showing everyone the damline and how to read a page. There are only a few stallions, with lots or representatives, but it’s the bottom half of the pedigree where tradition is built. “Once you can understand a catalogue you can understand the traditions of the sport and the great names and races. That’s where a lifelong passion begins.”

first-crop yearling sires

Making their debuts at the yearling sales Alan Porter provides a check list of this autumn’s first-crop yearling sires and finds a range of types, pedigrees and budgets

he group of sires with first European yearlings this year were last seen in action at the track back in 2011, so as the European yearling sales get under way, we’re going to take a look at the race record and pedigrees of the most notable. The list is notably shorter than in previous years – these stallions having retired to stud at the height of the recession when it was difficult for studs to find the capital investment for stallions. Short on quantity, high on quality.

SPRINTERS Dalghar

Anabaa-Daltawa (Miswaki) Haras de Saint Arnoult 2014 Fee: €4,000 Dalgar won twice over a mile, his victories including the Listed Prix Luthier, but he was better at 6f and 7f and won the Prix du Palais-Royal (G3). He also finished second in the Criterium de Maisons-Laffitte (G2), the Diadem Stakes (G2), Prix du Pin (G3) and Prix de Montretout. He also took thirds in the Lennox Stakes (G3) and Prix de Seine et Oise (G3). As an Anabaa half-brother to Dalakhani, Dalghar certainly has the pedigree to appeal to buyers looking for value for money in his native France.

Dream Ahead

Diktat-Land Of Dreams (Cadeaux Genereux) Ballylinch Stud 2014 Fee: €15,000 Dream Ahead was one of the brightest stars of this generation. In his first season he was rated the joint-top European two-yearold alongside the mighty Frankel after taking the Prix Morny (G1) and Middle Park Stakes (G1), the latter by 9l. The following year, Dream Ahead earned a title as the European champion threeyear-old sprinter by defeating his elders in the July Cup (G1), the Haydock Sprint Cup (G1), and, after a classic battle with Goldikova, the Prix de la Forêt (G1). By Warning’s champion sprinter Diktat, Dream Ahead

first-crop yearling sires is the principal hope for the continuation of the Man O’War male line in Europe. His dam Land Of Dreams was another speedy and precocious runner, winning the Flying Childers Stakes (G2) and King George Stakes (G3). She is also dam of the multiple stakes winner Into The Dark. The grand-dam Sahara Star won the Molecomb Stakes (G3), and is out of another speedster, the July Cup (G1) runner-up Vaigly Star. His yearling out of Pertinence fetched €270,000 at Deauville, the most by a European first-crop sire to date.

Lilbourne Lad

Acclamation-Sogno Verde (Green Desert) Rathbarry Stud 2014 Fee: €7,500 Lilbourne Lad emulated DarkAngel, another speedy son of his sire, retired to stud as a two-year-old. His supporters will be hoping he can also follow Dark Angel’s bright start at stud. Lilbourne Lad was kept busy in his sole season at the track,

starting eight times. Never out of the first four, he won three races including the Railway Stakes (G2) and the Rochestown Stakes, but he also claimed seconds in the Middle Park Stakes (G1) and Gimcrack Stakes (G2). Although Lilbourne Lad’s racerecord, sire line and broodmare sire all shout speed, his family is actually a Classic one. His dam, who was second in the Ribblesdale Stakes (G2), is by Nashwan out of the Irish St. Leger (G1) heroine, Dark Lomond. This is the same branch of the Frizette family as Elusive Quality.

Poulains (G1) winner Tin Horse in the Prix Jean-Luc Lagardère (G1). Having sired no less than 38 individual two-year-old winners in that first crop, Iffraaj has gone on to re-instate his merits through his other Group 1 winners Chriselliam, Rizeena and Benvenue. A half-brother to the dam of multiple sprint stakes winner Katla, Wootton Bassett is out of the stakes-placed Primo Dominie mare Balladonia. The third dam is a threeparts sister to US champion and successful sire, Key To The Mint.

Wootton Bassett

Milers

Iffraaj-Balladonia (Primo Dominie) Haras d’Etreham 2014 Fee: €4,000 A member of his sire’s recordbreaking first-crop, Wootton Bassett was undefeated in five starts at two picking up two valuable sales races, and earning honours as a champion twoyear-old in France with a two and a half length victory over the subsequent Poule d’Essai des

Canford Cliffs

Tagula-Mrs. Marsh (Marju) Coolmore Stud 2014 Fee: €12,500 Canford Cliffs initially shaped as though he might be a sprinter taking the Coventry Stakes (G2) on his second start at two, then ending the year with a third in the Prix Morny (G1).

Second in the Greenham Stakes (G3) and third in the 2,000 Guineas (G1) on his first two starts at three, Canford Cliffs, raised his game after a change in tactics and his three-year-old campaign provided victories in the Irish 2,000 Guineas (G1), St. James’s Palace Stakes (G1) and Sussex Stakes (G1). He stayed in training at four, and added the Lockinge Stakes (G1) and the Queen Anne Stakes (G1) to the tally. The latter victory was achieved in a thrilling battle with Goldikova, and provided Canford Cliffs’s fifth straight Group 1 win. It was also the third year in a row that he had won on Royal Ascot’s opening day, a unique feat. Canford Cliffs represents the Hail To Reason line – not seen that frequently in Europe these days –descending via Hail To Reason’s son Stop The Music through the Mill Reef Stakes (G2) winner Taufan and Tagula, whose most notable triumph came in the Prix Morny (G1). Interestingly enough, Taufan is from the same family as Try

Unbeaten as a two-year-old, Wootton Bassett is by the strong juvenile influence Iffraaj and traces to the US champion Key To The Mint

first-crop yearling sires

Canford Cliffs: from the end of May 2010 to June 2011, the son of Tagula won five consecutive Group 1 races. He also finished third in the 2,000 Guineas at the beginning of May 2010, and second in the Sussex Stakes in July 2011

first-crop yearling sires

Dick Turpin is from a precocious family – his dam is a half-sister to juvenile Group winner Deep Finesse and to Champagne Girl, the dam of Halmahera, winner of the Group 3 Cornwallis Stakes

My Best whose son Last Tycoon is responsible for Canford Cliff’s broodmare sire, Marju. Canford Cliffs’s third dam Triple Tipple was a stakes winner in Britain, and a graded winner in the US, and is out of a daughter of the top-class US racemare, Amerigo’s Fancy. This is a family that has also produced Australian super-mare Makybe Diva, and other wellknown performers as Sumati, Bluegrass Prince and Famous Name. His first yearlings have been well received.

Cat Junior

Storm Cat-Luna Wells (Sadler’s Wells) Haras Du Pays d’Auge 2014 Fee: €2,800 Cat Junior is something a unique

item as he is the only stakes winner by Storm Cat out of a mare by Sadler’s Wells. Despite both being dominant sires of their eras on either side of the Atlantic, there has been only ever four starters by Storm Cat out of daughters of Sadler’s Wells. In addition to the sire-power in his pedigree, Cat Junior also owns some impressive credentials on the distaff side of the pedigree as his dam, a winner of the Prix Saint-Alary (G1), is a half-sister to Linamix, hero of the French 2,000 Guineas (G1), and a multiple champion sire in France. A much-travelled and very durable individual, Cat Junior started 28 times, winning the first and last of those events – a 6f Newbury maiden at two, and the black-type Swedish Open

Mile at Taby at six. Although he won only once more, taking the the Burj Nahaar (G3) at Meydan, he frequently distinguished himself against tough opposition with seconds in five Group 2 contests, as well as finishing fourth in the St. James’s Palace Stakes (G1), Prix Jean Prat (G1) and Prix de la Forêt (G1).

Dick Turpin

Arakan-Merrily (Sharrood) National Stud 2014 Fee: £4,000 A stable-companion and sometimes rival of Canford Cliffs, Dick Turpin won his first four races at two, including the Richmond Stakes (G2) and Tattersalls Ireland Sale Stakes. Dick Turpin trained on to become one of the leaders of his generation at three and four with wins in the Prix Jean Prat (G1)

Frozen Power is half-brother to another extremely talented miler in Finsceal Beo

and Greenham Stakes (G3) at three, and the Premio Vittorio di Capua (G1), Summer Mile (G2) and Bet365 Mile (G2) the following year. He also collected seconds in the English Guineas, Poule d’Essai des Poulains (G1) and the St. James’s Palace Stakes (G1). Dick Turpin’s sire Arakan, a son of Nureyev, has proved a real surprise package getting not only Dick Turpin, but also the Group 1 winner Toormore, and Group winners Trumpet Major and Sruthan. On the dam’s side this is a fast and precocious family as Dick Turpin is out of a half-sister to one juvenile Group winner in Deep Finesse, and to the dam of another in Halmahera. He is also a half-sister to the dam of stakeswinning sprinter, Rising Shadow. There are several more fast horses under the third dam – herself a half-sister to the very speedy Zeddaan – among them, Premiere Cuvee, River Falls, Needles and Pins, Alsindi, and Monsieur Bond.

Frozen Power

Oasis Dream-Musical Treat (Royal Academy) Ballyhane Stud 2014 Fee: €3,500 Frozen Power was a Listed winner in France at two and, after a third in the UAE Guineas (G3), he earned Classic honours with a win in the Mehl MulhensRennen (G2). Frozen Power is by the champion two-year-old and sprinter Oasis Dream, who is now firmly ensconced in the upper echelons of the European stallion ranks. In addition to his success as a sire, Oasis Dream is also showing

some promise as a sire of sires. His four young sons Approve, Aqlaam, Arcano and Showcasing, all sired sired first-crop two-yearold stakes winners. Frozen Power is a half-brother to another extremely talented miler in Finsceal Beo, who was not only European champion filly at two but also came very close to achieving an historic Classic treble at three – she won the 1,000 Guineas (G1) and Irish 1,000 Guineas (G1), and just missed in the French 1,000 Guineas (G1). Frozen Power’s dam was stakes placed, and his second, third and fourth dams were all stakes winners.

parts-sister to the two-time US champion sire, Exclusive Native. His foals were well regarded at the sales in 2013, while his first yearlings to sell averaged over 80,000gns. Sire Dubawi has enjoyed a lot of success with mares by Greeen Desert as well as those by Barathea so yearling out of mares by either of those might be of interest.

Roderic O'Connor

Galileo-Secret Garden (Danehill) Ballyhane Stud 2014 Fee: €9,000 Winner of the Criterium International (G1) at two, and the Irish 2,000 Guineas (G1) at three, Roderic O’Connor finished second to Frankel in the Dewhurst Stakes (G1) with Dream Ahead amongst those behind.

Roderic O’Conner will be bidding to follow Teofilo, New Approach and Rip Van Winkle and become the fourth son of Galileo to sire a two-year-old Group 1 winner in his first crop. Heliostatic and Sixties Icon also sired two-year-old Group winners in their first crops. Out of the Danehill stakes winner Secret Garden, Roderic O’Connor is bred on the same cross as Frankel, Teofilo and a slew of other Galileo standouts. Roderic O’Connor’s third dam Durtal was a champion two-yearold filly and is a half-sister to Detroit. She was the dam of Carnegie, a son of Roderic O’Connor’s grandsire Sadler’s Wells who won the Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe (G1) and was a Classic sire in New Zealand, as well as to

Poet's Voice

Dubawi-Bright Tiara (Chief’s Crown) Dalham Hall Stud 2014 Fee: £12,000 Successful in the Champagne Stakes (G2) at two, Poet’s Voice progressed again at three to take the Celebration Mile (G2) by four and a half lengths, and then account for horses such as Rip Van Winkle, Makfi, and Beethoven in the Queen Elizabeth II Stakes (G1). Poet’s Voice is amongst the best by his hugely successful sire whose other luminaries include Makfi, Monterosso, Al Kazeem, Night Of Thunder, Akeed Mofeed, Dubawi Heights and Hunter’s Light. On the dam’s side Poet’s Voice is a half-brother to the Japanese Grade 1 winner Gold Tiara and to the US stakes scorer Queen’s Park (herself dam of graded stakes winner Gemswick Park). The dam is a sister to the US Grade 1 winner Chief Honcho, and the grand-dam, a graded stakes winner, is out of a three-

Shakespearean

Shamaradal-Paimpolaise (Priolo) Haras de la Hetraie 2014 Fee: €2,500 Shakespearean was more of a 7f specialist than a pure sprinter or miler, but he did gain his most valuable victory, the Goffs Million, over the mile. At seven, he also took the Solario Stakes (G3), the Hungerford Stakes and the Surrey Stakes. Shakespearean is by Giant’s Causeway’s son Shamardal, who is currently enjoying a career year, while his dam is a half-sister to the speedy PontAven, a Groupwinning sprinter who stretched her speed sufficiently to take second in the Poule d’Essai des Pouliches (G1). Pont-Aven produced the sprint champion Sainte Marine, the Gimcrack Stakes (G2) winner Josr Algarhoud and the stakes winner Cap Coz. She is also the grand-dam of the Group winner Indian Days, the stakes winner Biniou, and of Reply, a Listed scorer who took third in the Irish 2,000 Guineas.

Zoffany

Dansili-Tyranny (Machiavellian) Coolmore Stud 2014 Fee: €7,500 Zoffany is decisively the best twoyear-old runner for his sire so far, his juvenile record boasting five wins in seven starts, including wins in the Listed Golden Fleece Stakes, the Tyros Stakes (G3) and

www.internationalthoroughbred.net

the Phoenix Stakes (G1), whilehe was also finished third in the National Stakes (G1). Having scored at the highest level over 6f at two, Zoffany narrowly missed adding to his laurels over a mile at three losing by just a head in the Prix Jean Prat (G1), and finishing fast-shrinking three-quarters of a length second to Frankel in the St. James’s Palace Stakes (G1). Zoffany’s sire Dansili ranks high as one of the best sire sons of Danehill, and he already has three sons who have sired Group winners, including the juvenile Group 1 sire Strategic Prince. Obvious major crosses that have already worked numerous times with Danehill have every chance. A three-quarters brother to the two-year-old Group winner Wilshire Boulavard, Zoffany’s dam Tyranny is by Mr. Prospector’s most important European son Machiavellian and out of the Group winner Dust Dancer.

Middle-Distance + Eastern Anthem

Singspiel-Kazzia (Zinaad) Withyslade Farm 2014 Fee: €2,000 Eastern Anthem really came good in the winter of his five-yearold season when he won three straight races at Nad Al Sheba, the third of those races being the Dubai Sheema Classic (G1). The much-travelled runner also picked up second placings in the Grosser Preis von Baden (G1) and Preis von Europa (G1). By Sadler’s Wells’s excellent grandson Singspiel, Eastern Anthem is a brother to Zeitoper, who took the Prix de Conde (G3) as a two-year-old, and halfbrother to the Pretty Polly Stakes winner Kailani. Their dam is Kazzia, heroine of the Oaks (G1), 1,000 Guineas (G1) and the Flower Bowl Invitational Stakes (G1).

first-crop yearling sires Frozen Fire

Montjeu-Flamingo Sea (Woodman) Coolagown Stud 2014 Fee: €3,000 Frozen Fire established himself among the top-rank of threeyear-old middle-distance performers of his crop when winning the Irish Derby (G1). He had the Epsom Derby (G1) second and third, Tartan Bearer and Casual Conquest, behind. Frozen Fire won his maiden first time out, and finished second to Tartan Bearer, beaten just a head in the Dante Stakes (G2). He is by “the Derby sire” Montjeu, is out of a Woodman mare, while his second dam Fabula is by Northern Dancer, giving him that sire 3 x 3. Fabula produced two Group winners, headed by German Oaks (G2) winner Flamingo Road. Further back this is also the family that produced Storm Cat and Be My Guest.

Pour Moi’s third dam is the outstanding tap-root mare Royal Statute Monitor Closely

Oasis Dream-Independence (Selkirk) Haras de la Hetraie 2014 Fee: €2,000 We’ve already looked at one son of Oasis Dream in Frozen Power, and now we have Monitor Closely, who was also a Classic son of his sire, although one with an apititude that couldn’t have been predicted from his pedigree. In addition to being by Oasis Dream, he has a daughter of Oasis Dream’s sire Green Desert as his third dam, while his dam,

a Group winner at a mile, is by Selkirk out of a Forty Niner mare. Despite this, Monitor Closely gained a Group win in the Great Voltigeur Stakes (G2), and his Classic placing came when third in the St. Leger (G1). We should also mention that Monitor Closely is also halfbrother to the Eclipse Stakes G1) and Criterium International (G1) victor Mount Nelson. Like Monitor Closely, Mount Nelson is from the Danzig line, and he has been making a useful start with his first two crops of three-year-olds.

Pour Moi

Montjeu-Gwynn (Darshaan) Coolmore Stud 2014 Fee: €12,500 Pour Moi had just two starts at two, winning over a mile in October, and then just ran just three times the following year. However, given the dazzling turn of foot to he produced to take the Prix Greffulhe (G2) and

Epsom Derby (G1) on his final two starts, he may have been on the verge of developing into something special before injury Along with Motivator, Authorized and Camelot, Pour Moi is one of a quartet of Epsom Derby (G1) winners by Montjeu. His dam has also produced Gagnoa (by Montjeu’s sire, Sadler’s Wells), who was a multiple Group winner and took second in the Prix de Diane (G1) and third in the Irish Oaks (G1 as well as the stakes winner Kissed, who was by another son of, Sadler’s Wells, Galileo. Pour Moi’s third dam is the outstanding tap-root mare Royal Statute whose descendents include Awaasif, Snow Bride, Lammtarra, Saytarra, Proskona, Hector Protector, Bosra Sham, Aesop’s Fables and Shanghai. Sire Montjeu was particularly successful not only with mares by Darshaan,which is already damsire here, but also with Gone West, Woodman, Shirley Heights and Danehill.

statistical issues

Byron Rogers charts the statistical success rate of older mares and stallions and finds that there are...

Age concerns order (first foal out of the dam, second foal, etc) from the Keeneland September Yearling Sale (all charts supplied courtesy of BloodHorse’s MarketWatch) showing the average sale price (i$) by foal order from the 2002-2013 yearling sales. From the chart you can see that, even though the numbers of foals in each foal order reduces over time, the average sale price remains buoyant right up to the 12th foal. This chart shows one aspect of the efficiency of the commercial yearling market.

here is no easy way to say it – old girls are over-rated. Of course, they’d like us to believe that, like fine wine, they are ageing well and completely capable of producing the goods when called upon, but, for racehorses at least, the reality is somewhat different. In terms of racetrack performance, yearling buyers pay significantly too much for yearlings out of older mares. The following chart references the foal

Once a mare gets past the fifth or sixth foal, if she has not produced a superior runner, she is unlikely to have her offspring make the Keeneland September Sale, despite the sale being a virtual “supermarket” in terms of differing buying groups. The mares that do find their later offspring (foals seven through 12) in the September Yearling Sales are invariably mares that have produced a stakes winner in foals one through six and the market rewards these mares with increasing average prices.

statistical issues Where the case against buying yearlings out of these older mares is made is when we add to the plot the sales price against the Class Performance Index (CPI). The CPI is a prize-money-based performance rating developed by equineline. com that is generated much like an Average Earnings Index, but considers biases of age, sex and country in prize-money distribution. Across the population of runners it is a â&#x20AC;&#x153;non-linear Pareto scaleâ&#x20AC;? with the average horse having a CPI of 1.00 and elite runners generally starting at 4.00. What we can see from this chart is that the average sales price of the first six foals by foal count roughly follows the average CPI, charting just above a 1.00 average CPI for the runners out of these first six foals, but at the seventh foal there is a significant drop in the average CPI, which quickly dips below an average CPI of 0.80 by the 12th foal. However, the average sale price remains high, and in fact goes higher (bearing in mind the reducing numbers of yearlings with these foal counts) as the yearling buyer begins to pay a premium for stock out of proven mares. These two graphs suggest that, relative to

â&#x20AC;&#x153;

On average 70 per cent of the graded/group stakes winners produced by a stallion will come in his first 10 crops or 500 foals racetrack performance, buyers will incorrectly overpay for the relatively small number of yearlings out of proven producers who appear in a catalogue. Yes, there is certainly evidence to suggest that producing a stakes winner is a repeatable event in some cases (full relations in particular) and to some extent yearling buyers are paying for bloodstock residual value as well if the offspring is a filly, but if the goal is to buy a yearling that is most effective on the racetrack, generally speaking buying a yearling beyond the sixth foal puts

the yearling buyer at a distinct disadvantage, especially given the rising average price having to be paid for diminished racetrack performance.

So what about the stallion side of things?

On average, a successful commercial single-hemisphere sire will sire 17 crops in his stud career. Depending on their success, some will sire more crops and more foals, some will sire less, but the modern-day average for a commercial sire is around 17 crops of some 850 foals with only a small percentage siring more than 1,000 foals in their career. Within this average we are, as breeders and yearling buyers alike, faced with another conundrum that, like mares, age (and quite probably frequency of coverings) does indeed weary a stallion. On average, these same commercial sires will produce 70 per cent of their Graded/ Group stakes winners in their first ten crops, or roughly 500 foals and only 30 per cent of their graded/group stakes winners in their last seven crops. This imbalance of production occurs, of course, despite the fact that the truly

“

Buying yearlings sired from crops five through eight of a stallion’s career, the buyer knows if the stallion is capable of siring an elite horse successful commercial stallions will be serving some of their “best mares” in what will be crops 11 to 14, at a time when many are at the commercial height of their powers. Generally speaking, and there are certainly exceptions such as Monsun and Dynaformer, despite serving higher quality mares in these later crops, their production of graded/group stakes winners declines. Yearling buyers are thus faced with a very small window to find yearlings within the crops that are the optimal output of a stallion’s career, but there are some patterns in the production of stakes winners that can be taken advantage of. As previously stated, on average 70 per cent of the graded/group stakes winners produced by a stallion will come in his first 10 crops or 500 foals. For the successful sires, 28 per cent of the total will occur in the first four crops and the same 28 per cent of Graded/ group stakes winners will occur in crops five through eight.

The advantage to be had by yearling buyers with no difference in terms of graded stakes production between these two groups is obvious. Buying yearlings sired from crops five through eight of a stallion’s career, the buyer knows if the stallion is capable of siring an elite horse – when his fifth crop hits the yearling sale, his oldest are five-year-olds so his abilities, or lack thereof, are well known. The reason for the asymmetry in graded/ stakes production, even in the best of stallions is unclear. In examining the most successful stallions, sire’s such as Sadler’s Wells, Danehill, Storm Cat and A.P Indy there isn’t a discernable pattern between the crops to suggest that there is a shift in the average age of the mares being bred to them or racing quality, other than the getting mares of better race quality as they get older, to suggest that this pattern is necessarily man made. There could be any number of reasons or theories for this asymmetry, but one that

might be the most plausible is the fact that sperm is a replication process and influenced by methylation patterns – thus the process could easily have progressive mutations and be heavily influenced by the overall health and age of the stallion. An observation that may also have some validity is that in wild horse herds most stallions acquire a small harem of mares at age five or six, with this harem increasing in size through about age 12 before declining thereafter. Maybe mother nature and father time is telling us something. But what of the combined effect of ageing? Is there a measureable decline in average CPI for yearlings that are sired in latter crops of a stallion out of proven mares? Absolutely. Below is a chart that plots the combined number of the sire’s crop number and the foal number of the foal, with the average sales price ($) and average CPI of the foals of that status. You will notice that simultaneously as sire and dam are becoming more proven, they are getting older and farther away from their best reproductive years. The blue line shows the steady decline in the CPI of yearlings these later crops, their production of graded/group stakes winners declines.

mare of the month

Kheleyf’s Silver Kheleyf - Silver Arrow (Shadeed)

Mare of the month Photo: PA

Tiggy Wiggy wins the Group 2 Lowther Stakes in a course record time – her first try over 6f. Her autumn target is likely to be the Group 1 6f Cheveley Park

his mare of the month has quite unashamedly an Irish bias, quite fitting considering this issue is something of a focus on Irish bloodstock ahead of the Tattersalls Ireland September Sale and the Goffs Orby Sale. The mare is Irish bred, her leading performer is Irish bred, a lot of the personalities are from the country’s bloodstock community while she is part of a broodmare band based in Ireland. Kheleyf’s Silver is responsible for producing what is we consider to be the most exciting young horse running this season… forget your Taghroodas, your Australias and your Kingmans. We love speed, pace, energy and fast ladies who try hard – Tiggy Wiggy has captured our hearts (and it helps that she has cracking name too). She was bred by CBS Bloodstock, which

www.internationalthoroughbred.net

is run by Paul McCarten of Ballyphilip Stud, formerly manager of Denis Brosnan’s highlevel operation of Croom House Stud. Tiggy Wiggy was bred to be fast, her dam Kheleyf’s Silver ran just four times, all her career outings coming as a two-year-old and all over 5f. She finished second on her middle two starts – first behind Doctor Parkes, who continues to ply his trade as an 80 to 85-rated sprinter, and then to the Danetime horse Titus Andronicus, who registered two career wins from 25 starts, all of which came over the minimum trip. Kheleyf’s Silver gained her important one-off career victory on her last start when successful at Windsor that October on the good to firm. The race comments said then “made all, driven over 1f out, kept on well”. Like mother, like daughter. She is out of the US-bred mare Silver Arrow, a daughter of Shadeed, her dam

Annesati (Kris) had been a runner in Britain, shipping to the states for her covering. Sheikh Maktoum Al Maktoum’s Shadeed was resident at Gainsborough Farm in the US for the whole of his stud career and, though Annesati was owned by Mohamed Obaida, a Dubai-based property developer, he was a friend of the Sheikh and she was bred by Gainsborough Farm. Incidentally, the same combination of farm, friends and sire also teamed up with the best by Shadeed, the 1,000 Guineas and brilliant four-time Group 1 winner Sayyedati. Aneesati produced four winners from seven runners and ten foals, the most notable being Ras Shaikh, a Gainsborough Stud-bred daughter of Sheikh Albadou. Registered as owned by Salem Bel Obaida, she became a 1m2f Listed-placed performer in Britian. Silver Arrow was one of the seven out of

Aneesati who failed to put her connections on the winners’ rostrum. She was moved on by Faringdon Place Stables as a unplaced threeyear-old in 2000 when bought for 11,000gns by Emerald Bloodstock. She entered Shane Doyle’s broodmare band at Barrettstown Farm House producing in 2002 a filly by Namid, who was named Two Spoons. She did not race and although Doyle tried to move on Silver Arrow at the 2002 Goffs November Sale in-foal to Mujadil, the €18,000 reserve was too big an ask. Fortune favours the brave though and the colt born the following spring turned out to be every breeders’ dream. Although he was without siblings boasting racecourse form, that did not stop pinhooker John Osborne (in his pre-Irish National Stud days) going to €30,000 for the March-born foal. The price gave Doyle a decent return from a covering by a second-season sire who stood at €15,000, out of a mare who cost 11,000gns and from only her second pregnancy Osborne reconsigned the Mujadil colt to the DBS St Leger Sale (again we are harking back to the “olden” days when it was the “real” St Leger Sale) where Howard Johnson purchased him for 50,000gns – this really is a recent history lesson in bloodstock as sterling has since superceded the guinea at the Doncaster sales. Named Masta Plasta, he became a little early star for his young mare, sire and owner Graham Wylie and Transcend Bloodstock. He first appeared on the racecourse as a juvenile in May 2005 and was trained by Johnson to win his second start before gathering a Group 3 win in the Norfolk Stakes (run at York) on his third outing. Given a kick-off BHA mark of 100, he failed to win again until 2008, although he was placed many times over 5f and 6f. By then he had joined Dandy Nicholls and won the Scottish Sprint Cup off a rating off 96 – his consistent performances meaning that he never fell through the ratings system to a more lenient mark. Masta Plasta continued racing right

“

Masta Plasta continued racing right through to 2011, winning a total of six races from 56 starts and £250,000 in prize-money through to 2011, winning a total of six races from 56 starts and £250,000 in prize-money. His last win came off a mark of 101 and he finished his career on 93. He was a consistent, tough, fast individual.

n all, Silver Arrow produced five winners from eight runners, but none ever matched the achievements of her sprinter by Mujadil. Her next runner was a No Excuse Needed non-winning filly who was born in 2005, the same year in which the mare visited Kheleyf who was standing his first season at Kildangan Stud (we told you this story was all about Irish quality…). The son of Green Desert was a €7,000 covering for year one, but he has since become a recognised source of juvenile talent – in 2012 he equalled Invincible Spirit’s record of 42 two-year-old winners in a year. The result of his 2005 date with Silver Arrow was Kheleyf’s Silver. Sent as a baby to the Tattersalls Foal Sale in November 2006, she was bought for 58,000gns by another Irish pin-hooking talent – Paddy Twomey of Hawthorn Villa Stud. He returned her to the Goffs Million Sale (remember this is a history lesson too) where she fetched €230,000, the highest price achieved at auction by one Annesati’s foals and purchased by trainer Brian Smart.

Owned through her racing career by Sheikh Rashid bin Mohammed, she did not run after that two-year-old October success and after missing her three-year-old year, Darley reconsigned her at Tattersalls February Sale as an early four-year-old. She was purchased there by Anthony Stroud Bloodstock for a much-reduced price of 15,000gns. Her first foal, bred by McCarten’s CBS Bloodstock, was a Bushranger colt named Iftaar. A £90,000 DBS yearling purchase by Charles Hills for Hamdan Al Maktoum, he won once as a three-year-old, achieved a rating of 78 and was reconsigned by Shadwell this July where he was bought by Devis Grilli for 19,000gns. In 2011, Kheleyf’s Silver was returned to Tally-Ho Stud for her second covering, but that time visited the progressive and proven sire Kodiac, a son of Danetime. Standing then at a fee of €7,500, he has risen since to a price of €10,000. Since Tiggy Wiggy’s speedy endeavours this year – she became her sire’s first Group race winner – Kodiac’s fee is sure to rise again for 2015. Kheleyf’s Silver’s yearling of this year is by Big Bad Bob and is due in the sale ring at Tattersalls for Book 2, and there is no reported return from a covering with Bated Breath. Unsurprisingly, Kheleyf’s Silver revisited Kodiac this spring. In human terms Tiggy Wiggy’s pedigree is a trawl through recent bloodstock past featuring names such as Gainsborough Farm, Maktoum Al Maltoum, the DBS “real” St Leger Sale and the Goffs Million. How things have changed so much and so quickly. Commercially minded Irish bloodstock interests have also played a notable part in Twiggy Wiggy’s family’s development – John Osborne, Rathasker Stud, TallyHo Stud, Paddy Twomey as well as its recent exponents, Paul McCarten and his Ballyphillip Stud. Where it leads to next is anyone’s guess, but if a Group 1 is collected in the autumn, the only way will has to be up.

As summer draws to a close this picture really caught our eye with the beautiful bright sunflowers all looking to the camera (apart from one very tall one at the back of the shot). The guy riding is Bob Grutza and it is his field at his farm near Maysville, Kentucky â&#x20AC;&#x201C; which gives us a small connection to racing and letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s us get away with using this photo...!
