Local soldier Drill Sargeant stays well but has Arezzo to beat

LAKESIDE HANDICAP at Fairview on Friday

T

A non black-type staying feature on the turf at Fairview on Friday heads the national racing programme on a weekend devoid of any stakes races.

The 2400m R100 000 Lakeside Handicap looks tailormade for Justin Snaith’s Go Deputy colt, Arezzo.

he Go Deputy progeny have taken the lead set by Gauteng Guineas hero and Triple Crown aspirant Abashiri and have been winning all over the country.

Snaith Ace

Arezzo certainly looks capable of continuing the trend and the 2015 Listed Settlers Trophy winner may just carry too many guns for the local soldier Drill Sargeant.

Arezzo was a facile winner

of his last start over the Fairview 1800m where he came home by 5,75 lengths beating Big Freeze. That showed his wellbeing and based on his only previous try over Friday’s course and distance, when a reasonable fourth behind St Tropez in the East Cape Derby last term, he looks a decent prospect here.

Tara Laing’s 7yo Drill Sargeant is likely to be his major opponent and the 13 time winner never runs a bad race.

The son of Dynasty stays all day but was beaten 2,25 lengths by Oh So Modus over

Newhaven Park, one of Australia’s leading thoroughbred nurseries, requires the services of a general hand for its Boorowa, NSW, property.

The position requires the successful applicant to have experience in general farm maintenance, pumps and mechanical knowledge.

We are looking for someone who is responsible, energetic, self-motivating and has a positive attitude.

the course and distance at his last outing. He now meets the same runner at 2,5kgs worse terms – so technically should be held again.

a mile but has never won over this type of ground.

He has a touch of class about him and could surprise from the in-form Mckenzie yard.

Another horse who stays is the well travelled Putney Flyer – a fellow who has been around the block.

He meets Oh So Modus on 1,5 kgs better terms after a 1,75 length course and

distance third last time and could improve further with his handy galloping weight.

Fitness

Zoo Biscuit may need a run after a 22 week break and seems more effective on the polytrack.

King Jace appears to be battling after being a fair placegetter in KZN, where he was based with Garth Puller.

The Barbadian was placed over the trip last time in lower company but will have to improve further to feature.

Former Joey Ramsden stayer Dandyman Can has not earned in ages and at 8 may be past his best.

Arezzo is the choice to continue the Snaith victory march and he should be good enough to hold Drill Sargeant and Oh So Modus.

Machine

Renate du Plessis trained Oh So Modus is a one-paced perpetual motion galloping machine who is a difficult fellow to peg back.

The six-time winner stays well on both surfaces and is a fit hardknocker, who won’t lie down without a rumble.

The one-eyed Australianbred Politiical Playboy won his last start in good style over

The ability to take initiative and pride in their work is also a pre-requisite.

This position offers an excellent remuneration package, including a 3-bedroom brick house.

Newhaven Park will manage the relevant immigration documents.

Applicants will be treated with the strictest confidence.

All Systems Go For This Deputy MIKE Azzie-trained Abashiri heads up the nominations for the R2-million SA Classic over 1800m and will be looking to close out the second leg of the SA Triple Crown at Turffontein on Saturday 2 April.

The son of Go Deputy scored a facile 2.50-length victory in the Grade 2 Betting World SA Guineas and is already being touted as the third horse to win the SA Triple Crown.

To emulate Horse Chestnut and Louis The King Abashiri will need to win the SA Classic and the SA Derby over 2450m on Saturday 30 April.

Azzie will have a plenty of back-up in this event as he has also nominated highly regard Rabada, Le Clos and a new acquisition to the yard, Trading Profit, who was recently bought by Adriaan van Vuuren who also owns Abashiri.

Rabada travelled to the Cape for the summer season but things did not go his way and he had to be given a break. He was rated as one of the best two-year-olds in country and it will be interesting to see how he trains on.

In the Guineas Abashiri beat Champagne Haze, Malak El Moolook and Brazuca and they are all among the nominations as are New Predator, Romany Prince and Suyoof, who ran unplaced but all had very poor draws with which to contend.

There will be some new challengers for Abashiri, the main one coming in the form of Jubilee Line from the Mike de Kock yard. The son of Dynasty has raced five times for one win but De Kock said his charge would take a while to mature and would be better as a SA Classic and SA Derby contender. His last race was in the Investec Dingaans in which he finished a 6.50-length fifth behind stable companion Noah From Goa over 1600m.

He has also been nominated to run in the Grade 2 Colorado King Stakes over 2000m at Turffontein on Saturday 26 March. The other runner of interest is Count Tassilo from the Sean Tarry yard. He is a one-time winner from four starts but the son of Silvano has not run beyond 1600m and races as if he needs further.

Gauteng Fillies Guineas winner Heaps Of Fun will be trying to take a step closer to winning the

Wilgerbosdrift Triple Tiara when she lines up in the R1-million Wilgerbosdrift SA Fillies Classic over 1800m.

Current log leader and former champion jockey S’manga Khumalo was at his superb best when bringing home the Visionaire filly in the Guineas and Tarry’s charge will have a lot of support to add this Grade 1 race to her record. Tarry has also entered Inaninstant, Intergalactic and Witchcraft, a very easy winner over the course and distance on Guineas Day. Fillies Guineas runner-up Negroamaro is also among the entries and racing fans could be in for another exciting finish.

De Kock has nominated Persian Rug, fifth in the Fillies Guineas, Noor and Shaama.

Entries for the R2-million SA CLASSIC (Grade 1) over 1800m at Turffontein on Saturday 2 April: ABASHIRI (M G Azzie); BRAZUCA (J A Janse van Vuuren); CHAMPAGNE HAZE (G M Alexander); COUNT TASSILO (S G Tarry); JUBILEE LINE (M F De Kock); LE CLOS (M G Azzie); LIEGE (S G Tarry); LUNAR APPROACH (S G Tarry); MALAK EL MOOLOOK (S G Tarry); MUWAARY (M F De Kock); NEW PREDATOR (J A Janse van Vuuren); RABADA (M G Azzie); REVELATION (L W Goosen); ROCKETBALL (G H Van Zyl); ROMANY PRINCE (O A Ferraris); SAMURAI BLADE (S G Tarry); SUYOOF (M F De Kock); TRADING PROFIT (M G Azzie); VAL ET AL (G V Woodruff) Entries for the R1-million Wilgerbosdrift SA Fillies Classic (Grade 1) over 1800m at Turffontein on Saturday 2 April: ALEXA (G V Woodruff); CHRISTMAS CAROL (G V Woodruff); HEAPS OF FUN (S G Tarry); INANINSTANT (S G Tarry); INTERGALACTIC (S G Tarry); JUXTAPOSE (S M Ferreira); MELLIFLORA (M G Azzie); NEGROAMARO (J A Janse van Vuuren); NOOR (M F De Kock); PERSIAN RUG (M F De Kock); POLYPHONIC (A G Laird); PRINCESS VARUNYA (K Naidoo); SHAAMA (M F De Kock); SHE’S A DRAGON (C Mayhew); WITCHCRAFT (S G Tarry).

Ian Sturgeon and Olma show courage in the rain

Gr3 KINGS CUP at Greyville last Friday

T

An overseas campaign could well be in the pipeline for the gutsy Dynasty filly Olma, who ran away from a classy field of males to win the R250 000 Gr3 Kings Cup run in torrential rain at Greyville on Friday evening.

his was impressive stuff from the courageous filly, in weather and on a racing surface better suited to ducks, as she registered a hattrick of victories, including consecutive Gr3 wins.

The fast improving 4yo

appears equally effective on turf and poly and her versatility and ability to quicken make her an exciting proposition to go on and make a name for herself.

The Gr1 Empress Club Stakes which will be run over a mile at weight-for-age at Turffontein on 16 April could be her next target.

On an evening where the Greyville polytrack proved its worth as an alternative racing surface, Olma’s trainer Frank Robinson and jockey Ian ‘Fish’ Sturgeon enjoyed a decent double.

The combination were also successful in the opening event with the Horse Chestnut gelding Bahamas Woodstar

shedding his maiden in style.

As the heavens opened, eleven horses lined up at the mile mark for the evening’s feature, with Charles Laird’s Exit Here a weakish favourite at 9-2, with Olma coming for late support from 11-2 into 4-1. Exit Here’s stablemate Stormy Eclipse also had his supporters.

The handily weighted Mumsy’s Jet was taken out to lead by Keagan De Melo, and this looked to be a likely winning tactic as they came for home with the son of Jet Master pounding away

down the inside rail with a useful advantage. But the gelding had no answer for the late challenge of Olma who, unflustered by the nasty weather, strode out to win impressively by 2,75 lengths in a time of 95,94 secs.

Another Dynasty product in Stormy Eclipse came from a few lengths off and just failed to nab Mumsy’s Jet. His third looks very acceptable on his consistent form profile.

The Sporting Post weekend cover star Way Of Light, who went off at 18-1, was a further half length back in fourth.

Exit Here ranged dangerously in the straight but had nothing to come (possibly disliking the conditions) and fell away to finish stone last.

The Cheveley Stud bred Olma is a daughter of Dynasty out of the UK placed Danzig mare, Theas Dance.

She cost R450 000 at the National Yearling Sale when signed for by Malkinsky Stud.

Olma has now won 7 races with 3 places from 17 starts and took her stakes earnings to R640 375.

She will pay to follow.

DRUM STAR HANDICAP (Listed) at Turffontein last Saturday

2500 Up For Ferraris

T

The promising Kahal 3yo Romany Prince finally got his act together to win the R150 000 Listed Drum Star Handicap at Turffontein on Saturday and give legendary trainer Ormond Ferraris the 2500th winner of his 64 year career.

he milestone is a commendable one and the modest and quietly spoken Mr Ferraris was quick to point out that he has never trained more than 60 horses at any one time – which puts it all in perspective.

The twice SA champion trainer, who has won a host of the country’s top features, also added that he was proud of his clean record and named the Hintons’ Tracey’s Element and 2013 SA Triple Tiara victress Cherry On The Top as the best he has ever trained.

Ferraris completed his trainer’s apprenticeship under George Weale, with his licence being granted in 1952.

He trained his first winner, Shenandoah, in 1954.

His personal racing colours (black, scarlet sash and cap)

were taken over from Weale and they have graced the racetracks of South Africa for over a century.

It was also very appropriate that the milestone was achieved by a runner racing in the silks of Ferraris stalwart Peter Dimakogiannis, a man who has held his colour privileges since 1972. After the win, Dimakogiannis said that he was more thrilled for his trainer than for his personal winner: “We are like a perfect pair in blackjack – and he has always been my trainer – and is my only trainer. I love this man,” said the thrilled owner.

Jockey Muzi Yeni, who replaced the injured Anthony Delpech, rode a cracker to steal a march on his field at the right time and withstand a late challenge from the gallant Judicial by a half length in a time of 110,79 secs.

“I am very grateful for the support and had lots in my favour with a a 1 draw and a light weight. I was there for free and tracked the front horses who faded out at the top of the straight. I asked Romany Prince for his final effort at the 200m and he gave it to me. It is an honour to be part of this great moment and my sympathies go out to Anthony Delpech,” said Yeni, who was aboard Chinawhite for Ferraris in the very next race.

The unflappable Ormond Ferraris said that it has been ‘a long road’ and that he had enjoyed ‘every moment’.

“Peter (Dimakogiannis) is the last surviving staunch owner of mine,” he reflected.

The Rathmor Stud-bred Romany Prince has won 3 races with 4 places from 11 starts and took his stakes total to R285 150.

Romany Prince (Muzi Yeni) is the milestone man for Ormond Ferraris Romany Prince is a R450 000 National Yearling Sale graduate and is by Kahal out of the Royal Chalice mare, Gypsy Queen. That makes Romany Prince a half-brother to US Gr1 winner Gypsy’s Warning (Mogok)

Gypsy’s Warning was also bred by Mike and Tanya McHardy at their Rathmor Stud in Nottingham Road, KwaZulu Natal. Gypsy’s Warning’s dam Gypsy Queen raced only once, but was a full sister to two winners of the South African

JC PHOTOS

Oaks in Royal Prophecy and Noble Destiny.

National log-leading apprentice Callan Murray rode the first of three Ferraris winners on the day in the same silks to mark a personal milestone of 100 career winners.

Taking a bit longer than anticipated

Big Plans For Cape Tracks

K

Durbanville’s ridge and furrow, one of the main reasons for the Cape Town course failing to attract enough runners, is to be eliminated as part of the grand design for the racecourse and the Milnerton training centre, writes Michael Clower.

enilworth Racing director Hassen Adams announced in November that a synthetic track would be installed alongside the grass one.

He hoped then to have the work done by the end of this month but it has taken longer than planned to put all the necessary arrangements (including finance) in place.

Adams, the prime mover behind the project, is emphatic that it will all go ahead and will be accompanied by the replacement of the turf course.

He said: “Durbanville was originally established as an amateur racecourse used only during the winter months and so the corrugations didn’t much matter.

“The trainers still want to retain a grass track there and so what I would like to do is rip up the existing surface and take out the ridge and furrow.

“That won’t be expensive but putting in a polytrack will be. However I want to get an extension of the boundaries so we can have both grass and polytrack.

“I regard it as my job to make quite sure that we get the best out of Durbanville and it looks as if I will get the Milnerton development through quite quickly. That will give us enough money to be able to do all this.

“I have already secured the necessary environmental approval to make the Milnerton training track a circular one and, when that is done, we will have three tracks alongside one another – grass, polytrack and sand.”

The existing training track is less than five furlongs and riders have to start thinking about pulling up when they have only gone three and a half. As a result trainers have to use a race to get their horses fully fit. The new one will be around ten furlongs in circumference. www.goldcircle.co.za

T

One of racehorse ownership’s rarely mentioned pleasures is the naming of your horse. At this weekend’s CTS March Yearling Sale at Durbanville, there are more than 150 unnamed yearlings to come under the hammer!

here is a perception among some own-ers that only horses with “nice names” manage to win major races, or manage to win at all. This view, of course, is fundamentally subjective in that one individual’s meaning of a “nice” name is another’s nightmare.

Sweet

The “Nice Name” Theory does seem to carry some merit if one thinks of just a few racing legends of our time. Imagine Frankel being called “Spot” or American Pharoah running as “Hot Diddly Dawg” or Sea Cottage appearing as “Huisie by die See”. Doesn’t quite work as well, does it?

Normally about 60% of yearlings are already named by their breeders when they arrive at various auctions and, in general, most are well named or at least named with the basics in mind, for example a yearling from the stallion ‘’Pink” from the mare “Cadillac” will be named “Pink Cadillac”.

Owners have the right to change an existing name when a new purchase is registered to race with the National

Horseracing Authority. This comes with a standard fee and happens on occasion.

Basic naming for unnamed youngsters is as easy as one-two-three, although the NHRA’s data search rejects certain “protected” names, names in use within a specified exclusion period or names that may be deemed offensive in some way or the other.

The registration process itself is not always foolproof – brand names (not allowed) and especially spelling errors can creep in due to the new owner (or a new Jockey Club clerk on duty) having inadequate command of English, often concerning the use of the apostrophe!

Exclusive Racing’s purists demand that certain names should be regarded forever exclusive to single performers due to the exceptional career records of the animals that carried such names – there simply shouldn’t be newly-born yearlings named, for example, “Hawaii” or “Empress Club” or “Horse Chestnut”, because they may turn out to be mere shadows of the originals which will detract from their historical value.

She named every horse that was born at Mauritzfontein Stud Farm only after

proper research and sometimes lengthy discussions with family members and friends, and in consideration of outside opinion.

Her daughter Mary Slack of Wilgerbosdrift and granddaughter Jessica Slack have continued this tradition of careful naming – it becomes an art if seriously pursued and appears to be applied with similar enthusiasm elsewhere these days.

Examples At this weekend’s CTS March Yearling Sale, one well-named example is Lot 182, The Colour Purple, raised by Highlands Farm. He’s a colt by Antonius Pius (Roman Emperor with purple robes) from the mare Lavender Lake.

Another well-named yearling from Highlands is Georgia May (Great Britain x Liberal Lady), named after the young, supermodel-daughter of Rolling Stone Mick Jagger, the British legend.

Sorrento Stud’s Cause and Effect (Lot 176) is by What A Winter from “Karma” (the force created by a person’s actions), and herself a daughter of “Kundalini” (latent female energy).

Also catching the eye among wellnamed lots is Bring To Trial (Lot 99), from Sandown Stud and produced from the mating of Philanthropist and Call To Court, from the family of Lady Advocate, Judicial and I Am The Law. Being unnamed doesn’t guarantee natural talent in a thoroughbred, but it does give the buyer the opportunity to pick a “nice” name for his young horse!

This, in turn, will give his purchase an edge, right?

T

There is no substitute for genuine class and that axiom was demonstrated in no uncertain terms at Fairview on Friday when the 8yo Copper Parade raced home like an enthusiastic schoolboy to lift the spoils in the R150 000 Listed East Cape Sprint Cup.

o put this fellow in perspective, he made a winning debut for Alan Greeff at Arlington and a week later travelled to Cape Town where he won his second start in the 2yo Listed feature on Met day – the year River Jetez beat Mother Russia )both of whom have potential champion offspring racing this term), with the legendary Pocket Power in third.

If you’re a racing person, that will date Copper Parade for you!

Since then he has started a further 62 times, for 8 more wins, including two ‘away’ Gr1’s and spent a large portion of his career with Joey Ramsden. But Yvette Bremner has performed the real magic with the old boy, who keeps rolling along and has lost none of enthusiasm for the game.

He showed that in no uncertain terms, with a killer performance under Karl Zechner in a small, but very competitive field of speedsters over the straight 1200m in a time of 67,71 secs.

Tara Laing saddled half the field, but the sticky going appeared to unsettled pre-race fancy Vauclair, and he could do no better than third, a couple of lengths off – but hardly disgraced.

The popular winner was bred by Ascot Stud and is by Lecture out of the one-time winning Al Mufti mare, Copper Horizon.

Copper Parade took his stakes earnings to R2 299 525 and was registering his eleventh win with 24 places from 64 starts.

Time To Dream was the first leg of a winning Friday feature double for the outstanding Dynasty, with his daughter Olma clinching honours just hours later in the Gr3 Kings Cup at Greyville.

the CTS Million Dollar, she may not have been quite as sharp as she should have been – and Bling was at his professional best to ensure the story ended happily, A Time To Dream showing tenacity to hold Inanna to a short head in a time of 97,56 secs,

Trainer Justin Snaith looked to have found the perfect race to register a splash of black type for the lightly raced filly and the level weights conditions suggested that she would win rather easily off her official rating.

The Normandy Stud-bred A Time To Dream is a 3yo daughter of Dynasty out of the one-time winning Giant’s Causeway mare, Aqueduct.

Punters felt the same and she was a popular even money favourite.

But after a six week break following her 4,65 length eighth behind Illuminator in

FLAMINGO PARK HANDICAP

at Flamingo Park last Monday

The smart Dynasty filly A Time To Dream looked to be a good thing at the weights but had her supporters sweating as she held on just long enough to thwart a determined challenge by fellow Cape raider Inanna in Friday’s R150 000 Listed Breeders Guineas run at Fairview.

Lebeoana Scores

She was bought by Mayfair Speculators for a very reasonable R240 000 on the 2014 CTS March Yearling Sale.

Friday’s victory took her stakes tally to R232 375 with 4 wins and 1 place from her 7 starts.

T

The Summerhill Stud bred AP Arrow gelding Lebeoana showed that his last run was all wrong with a fluent victory for the Sportofkings Syndicate in the R100 000 Flamingo Park Handicap run over 1800m on Monday.

he gelding is a solid staying sort and the 1400m trip of his last run was on the short side.

But back to the more suitable 1800m and after Valde Velox had set a decent gallop in the non black-type feature, Lebeoana was quick to pounce and with Patel’s claim to aid the cause he won a cracker at a generous 14-1.

Lebeoano has settled in well to the local conditions after spending his early career in KZN where he was based with Garth Puller at Summerveld, from where he won twice.

He is a lot more effective in Kimberley though and apprentice Nicholas Patel rode a well judged race on Lebeoana, releasing him at the 300m and he strode away to beat the consistent race favourite Jaguar by 2,25 lengths in a time of 113,91 secs.

This was the second leg of a nicely taken double on the day for Prinsloo who also saddled Sonny Bill to win a 2200m handicap by 15 lengths earlier. He implored the authorities to put on more staying races, saying there was a serious need for them.

A son of AP Arrow, Lebeoana was bred by Summerhill Stud and is out of the Al Muufti mare Arabian Magic – who won only once at 2600m. Lebeoana is a half-brother to Lucky Houudalakis’ half decent stayer, Noble Star (Kahal).

Lebeoana is a R90 000 2012 Emperors Palace Ready To Run Sale acquisition and has paid his way earning a total of R313 575 in stakes, with a bright career ahead of him in the Northern Cape.

He has now won 6 races (three on the trot shortly after arriving in Kimberley) with 7 places from 33 starts in total – 4 of his career victories have been attained from just 9 starts in Kimberley.

Dubai World Cup

Sit Tight Next Saturday!

T

Seven of South African trainer Mike de Kock’s Dubai warriors have been invited to compete on Dubai World Cup night at Meydan on Saturday 26 March.

They include Mubtaahij in the $10-million Dubai World Cup over 2000m.

he others are Ertijaal and Forries Waltz in the Dubai Turf (formerly the Dubai Duty Free), Prayer For Relief in the Godolphin Mile, Tellina and Star Empire in the 3200m Dubai Gold Cup and Vale Dori in the 1800m UAE Derby.

Compatriot Paul Lafferty has also received an invitation to run Harry’s Son in the Dubai Turf, a Grade 1 race over 1800m.

Top Trainer De Kock, still the most successful international trainer on Dubai World Cup night, has not yet won the world’s richest race’, although he did come within a hairs breadth in 2010 when Lizard’s Desire was only pipped into second in a three-way photo finish with Gloria de Campao and Allybar (third).

Mubtaahij, of course, won last year’s UAE Derby by eight lengths and then went to America to contest two legs of the USA Triple Crown, the Kentucky Derby and the Belmont Stakes. He finished eighth and fourth respectively behind American Pharoah.

He was then given a long rest and returned to action at Meydan early in February, when far from ready he finished fifth behind Confrontation in the Firebreak Stakes.

He was expected to do much better a month later in Round III of the Al Maktoum Challenge on Super Saturday, but trailed in fourth and De Kock was disappointed with the run.

He said afterwards: “We expected to fight out the finish with Mubtaahij, to get into the first three at the very least, so this was disappointing. He was moving well in the race and then appeared to hit a flat spot after the bend, before staying on again late.

“I have to say though, that runners drawn off the rail today had little chance of winning. Whatever turned on the lead or handy, got away to win unchallenged.

“Arguably, the first two past the post in the Maktoum Round 3 didn’t have the exposed quality of form to be considered as dangers before the race, yet they beat us comfortably.

There was a clear track bias which makes it really hard for me to make an accurate assessment of this result.”

Best

Probably the best chance De Kock has for a winner is filly Vale Dori in the UAE Derby, a race the trainer has won six times. She is a daughter of Asiatic Boy, who won the 2007 renewal of the race for De Kock.

She made her Dubai debut in the UAE Oaks this month and finished second to Polar River, with De Kock saying afterwards: “Vale Dori is a filly with plenty of ability and we were expecting a good run from her.

She was unlucky, she wasn’t sound earlier this season but she is now and we’ll be going for the Derby.

“Vale Dori will come on from this run. Christophe Soumillon feels she will be an ideal Derby runner. We’ll have to meet Polar River again, but it will be wonderful to do it with a daughter of Asiatic Boy who won the race for us in 2007. And of course we had a filly, Raihana, finish second in 2011. Vale Dori is good enough, she impressed us here.”

Forries Waltz has won both his starts at Meydan this Dubai World Cup Carnival, a 1600m handicap in which he beat Flash Fire by a neck and the 1800m Al Rashidiya in which he beat Ertijaal by 1.25 lengths.

Ertijaal, the Investec Cape Derby winner last year, has run three times at Meydan this year, chasing home Forries Waltz on turf before running a shocker on dirt.

He reverted to turf on Super Saturday recently and was third

Mike De Kock behind easy winner Tryster in the 1800m Jebel Hatta.

Doubts De Kock has doubts about Ertijaal’s ability to win the Dubai Turf.

“One has to be realistic. Ertijaal ran a good race, he couldn’t do better.

He is probably not good enough to have beaten a horse like Tryster.”

Eight-year-old USA-bred Prayer For Relief debuted for De Kock at last year’s Carnival and has run four times at this year’s desert extravaganza with two thirds to show from his efforts. Tellina, who finished a fair sixth behind Sheikhzayedroad

in the 2810m Nad Al Sheba Trophy, will be trying 3200m for the first time in his career.

De Kock said after the Nad Al Sheba Trophy: “I was very impressed with Tellina, the way he stayed on shows he is likely to see out 3200m in the Cup. He didn’t have a troublefree passage.

Ryan Moore feels they could have run a place with more luck, he was complimentary about Tellina and we are chuffed about that.” Star Empire finished second to Brown Panther in the Gold Cup last year and ahead of Tellina in the Nad Al Sheba Trophy.

Harry’s Son, fourth in the Jebel Hatta, is unlikely to be ridden by the still injured Piere Strydom in the Dubai Turf and many will be holding thumbs he wins for Lafferty, who was recently pronounced in excellent health after a battle with cancer. www.tabnews.co.za

The National Horseracing Authority of Southern Africa has announced the appointment of seasoned businessman and philanthropist, Mr Lyndon Barends, as its new Chief Executive, effective 15 March 2016.

yndon is an inspirational leader and change agent with a wealth of experience gained in various operational strategic positions held in various industries.

His extensive network was garnered during his stints in the Standard Bank Public Affairs and Transformation Departments, the National Olympic Committee of South Africa (now SASCOC), and during his time spent as an entrepreneur within the IT and Sports Marketing arenas.

He served as the CEO of the Primedia Sport Group of Companies where he was very instrumental in the execution of a number of World Cup 2010 projects.

He has a strong passion and involvement in the public and

Gr2 Charity Mile winner Bouclette Top ran his last race on South African soil when unplaced behind Legal Eagle in the L’Ormarins Queen’s Plate earlier this year.

he Argentinian-bred gelding, who raced with success in the familiar black of Mauritzfontein Stud, has joined the Gujadhur yard and will continue his career in Mauritius this season.

While he was always thereabouts in the classics, his biggest career success came in the R1 million Gr2 Charity Mile in October 2015 when a clever change of tactics saw him swoop from some way off the gallop under SA champion jockey Gavin Lerena to beat a revitalised M L Jet and the handily weighted Mitraad.

Bouclette Top had generally raced handily, but showed his versatility with a nice turn of foot.

Bred in Argentina by Firmamento, Bouclette Top is a 5yo gelded son of Storm Cat stallion, Giant’s Causeway, out of the four time winning Gr1 winning Honour And Glory mare, Bouclette Glory.

He won 5 races from 1160m to 1800m, so has a nice mix of speed and stamina to be an effective runner on the tight Champ de Mars circuit.

Bouclette Top also ran 11 places from his 24 starts with stakes earnings of over R1 500 000.

Reminder Sale in a Million The CTS March Yearling Sale will be held this weekend at Durbanville.

Truly a sale in a million, the 2016 renewal will see 240 yearlings go under the hammer, all of them potential candidates for the two $500k races over 1200m and 1600m in January 2018.

We have done all the hard work with our in-depth sales preview, so go to www.sportingpost.co.za and then put your hand up - it could change your life!

Andrew O’Connor, Chairman of the NHA, commented that: “We are very happy to have a person of Lyndon’s calibre join our team, in particular to assist the NHA Board in its continued quest for excellence and to lead the industry with pride and honour”.

Lyndon has a BA in Psychology and Sociology, BA (Hons) in Social Development, Diploma in Personnel Management and an MBA (International General Management) from Richmond Business School in London.

The NHA Board takes this opportunity to record its thanks to Colin Hall for his willingness to have stepped in as Chief Executive, over the extended period during which the recruitment process for the appointment of the new Chief Executive, continued.

Colin’s loyalty and dedication is greatly appreciated.

Press Release issued by National Horseracing Authority of South Africa.

AFTER Denzil Pillay suddenly left the NHA – with a handsome payout and without full reasons being given to the members of the NHA – Mr Colin Hall was appointed Chief Executive (“CE”) of the NHA. I asked the NHA whether the appointment of Mr Hall was interim. I asked this because the NHA rules do not cater for an interim or temporary CE only a permanent one. If Mr Hall was to be an interim CE and he was going to make decisions as CE, I felt that his decisions could be set aside.

Despite this, I was informed by the NHA in no uncertain terms that Mr Hall was a permanent CE. On this information, I accepted that Mr Hall was employed on a full time basis as CE and that he would hold his position until retirement age -something similar to the ex NHA CE Rob De Kock.

Then came the lame attempt of the NHA Board to change the Constitution of

the NHA. With the changes, the NHA Board wanted a Managing Director (“MD”) to be appointed who would replace the Chief Executive.

It showed me that the position of Colin Hall may not be permanent despite what I had been told. On enquiry with the NHA I was informed that the position of Mr Hall would be that of CE until a MD was appointed.

Breeders The Special General Meeting was held in January 2016 and thanks, in the main, to breeders, the change to the Constitution was blocked. After the SGM I immediately went to Mr Hall and to Mr O’Connor. I directed my question to Mr O’Connor and asked whether the position of Mr Hall would remain as CE since the constitution had not been amended. I was told by Mr O’Connor that Mr Hall would remain as CE and that there would be no changes to his position.

This appointment of Mr Barends – who I do not know –

or Letters can be faxed dema: E-mailed to Karel Mie Fax: (021) 761 4003 spost@iafrica.com • e provided the full nam d, use be Pseudonyms may to the editor. d plie sup are der and address of the sen

indicates to me that despite what I was told, Mr Hall was only acting in temporary capacity. The likelihood is that Mr Hall stepped into the breach left by Mr Pillay for the Board to find someone else.

If I am correct in this regard, then any decisions of Mr Hall as CE are subject to scrutiny and may be set aside.

Great Pity It is a pity that the NHA Board did not make public its intentions to find a Chief Executive. The whole process leaves much to be desired.

I sincerely hope that Mr Barends will resign every one of his appointments as it appears he is a man who is involved in many businesses.

The position of the CE requires Mr Barends to spend his full time and attention to the business of the NHA. He should not hold any other occupation.

NHA Takes Action

O

In the face of growing welfare concerns, the National Horseracing Authority of South Africa has taken decisive action in the matter of racehorse retirement.

n 11 March 2016, they served notice to all members that:“The National Horseracing Authority firmly believes that all racehorses deserve to be treated with care and dignity when their racing career comes to an end.

Thoroughbred horses are refined athletes and do excel in order equine sports such as polo, show jumping, dressage and equitation.

However, they are not designed to withstand meagre or rural conditions and every effort must be made to prevent Thoroughbreds from ending up in circumstances where they would be neglected or abused.

For this reason, The National Horseracing Authority has promulgated a new rule to specify how racehorses must be treated once they have finished racing. The new rule recognises that all Owners have a responsibility towards their horses, whether they have been successful or unsuccessful, and that Owners have certain obligations to make sure that their horses do not end up in unpleasant conditions.

Whilst The National Horseracing Authority is mindful that the additional burden of responsibility now placed on the Owner may be inconvenient, it is certain that everybody will agree that these magnificent animals which provide so much excitement and provides significant economic benefits, deserve careful consideration when their time as a racehorse is over.”

Rule Change The new ruling is an amendment to the existing Rule 41.7 and makes provision for the humane disposal of horses once their racing careers are over. It reads as follows:41.10 The OWNER of a HORSE shall remain responsible for the care and welfare of a HORSE registered in his name with the NHA, once it retires from racing and for the rest of its natural life, unless he:

41.10.1 transfers ownership of the HORSE to another OWNER or an owner in another racing jurisdiction; or 41.10.2 transfers ownership of the HORSE to a BREEDER; or 41.10.3 transfers ownership of the HORSE to a Horsecare Unit run under the auspices of the National Horse Trust, together with the required fee; or 41.10.4 has the HORSE humanely euthanased and reports such euthanasia to the NHA; or 41.10.5 disposes, whether by an auction approved by the CHIEF EXECUTIVE or otherwise, the HORSE out of racing, on condition that a “second career assessment form” as prescribed from time to time, has been completed by a veterinary surgeon, the OWNER and the TRAINER, enabling the HORSE to pursue an intended second career

outside of horseracing.

If required, the OWNER agrees to make all relevant veterinary history available to the veterinary surgeon and TRAINER, in order to complete the form accurately. The assessment form shall be submitted to the CHIEF EXECUTIVE within one week of the horse retiring from racing. Should the assessment recommend humane euthanasia and the OWNER elects not to humanely euthanase the HORSE, then the OWNER shall remain responsible for that horse’s welfare for the rest of its natural life.

41.11 An OWNER shall be guilty of an offence if he fails to dispose of a horse in accordance with RULE 41.10 41.12 For the purposes of Rule 41, a horse will be regarded as having been retired from the time it leaves a Trainers’ yard or a breeding establishment to be placed in the care of a person who is not registered with the National Horseracing Authority.

The new Rule will become effective from 20 March 2016.

David’s Singapore Strike

Prince Of The Kilometre Rules South African jockey Derreck David was pinching himself hard after he rode a winner at his very first Kranji ride, Poseidon - and in last Friday night’s feature race for good measure.

Longines International Rankings

T

Brilliant four-year-old filly Smart Call, a daughter of Mauritzfontein Stud’s blue blooded resident sire Ideal World, is currently one of the highest rated horses in the world.

he Mauritzfontein bred filly, a triple Grade One winner, was given a rating of 119 on the Longines Best Racehorse Rankings – which places the 2016 Gr1 J&B Met winner just two pounds behind current world number one California Chrome.

The latter, a former US Horse Of The Year and Kentucky Derby winner, is currently favourite to win the Gr1 Dubai World Cup at the end of the month. California Chrome shares the top spot with Japanese champion Duramente and 2015 Gr1 King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Stakes hero Postponed, an impressive recent winner of the Gr3 Dubai City Of Gold.

Smart Call’s rating of 119 places her equal to such G1 winners as Designs On Rome, Chautauqua and Contentment and above such top class performers as Nyquist, Turn Me Loose, and Japonisme.

Ironically, the next best South African bred horse is Legal Eagle (who is by Smart Call’s relative Greys Inn). The latter, winner of the 2016 Gr1 L’Ormarins Queen’s Plate and bred by Avontuur, has a rating of 117.

Currently in quarantine and on her way to the 2016 Breeders’ Cup, Smart Call has won four of five outings in 2015-2016, headed by impressive wins in both the G1 Maine Chance Farms Paddock Stakes and G1 J&B Met. In total, the Alec Laird trained filly has won seven of 16 outings and over R3.4 million in stakes.

Her sire Ideal World, a stakes winning son of Kingmambo and Breeders’ Cup champion Banks Hill, has nine yearlings on offer at the National Sale, set to take place in Germiston on April 27-29th. www.capebreeders.co.za

The Poseidon Adventure

I

Derreck David shows great judgement as Poseidon keeps rolling

T

he 27-year-old jockey was already grateful he had been given a chance to “live his lifelong dream” of riding in Singapore at an early stage of his relatively young career, but to win first-up was the icing on the cake he had not quite expected. In his own words, it was “unreal”.

The long and frustrating wait before he got the nod probably made him savour that moment even more.

David has tried a few times to get in before but was unsuccessful, and when he finally got the stamp of approval, his original six-week tenure was whittled down to only one week through no fault of his – long processing time for his work permit.

The former South African champion apprentice jockey and reigning Mauritius champion jockey could have moaned or felt shortchanged but he remained positive. To him, the six rides – two on Friday and four on Sunday – was still a crack in the door, and how he flung it wide open with a brilliant

frontrunning ride aboard Poseidon in the $125,000 Racing Guide Classic run over 1400m.

Flash

Known as the “Prince of the Kilometre” in Mauritius for his knack at getting horses out of the barriers in a flash in 1000m scampers, David showed his reputation was not usurped. Bouncing Poseidon out from the second worst barrier, David eagerly scrubbed up his mount until he was two lengths clear before crossing to the steel. The Gold Centre four-year-old was inclined to reef and tear a little, but David showed silky skills as he gave him a breather before they cornered for the judge as the horse to run down.

The favourite Dragon Fury (Danny Beasley) and Hughsy (Wong Chin Chuen) closed him down but David had not gone for broke yet, easing Poseidon off to the middle part of the track first before throwing everything he had at him, like his life depended on it inside the last 100m.

Dragon Fury came huffing and puffing but was beaten a short head by Poseidon for that perfect

A proud Derreck David receives the winner’s trophy

It is always great to welcome a fellow countryman to Singapore, whether it is to visit or participate in the racing, and it was no different with Derreck David, writes Gareth Pepper.

n short notice, after his work pass took a few weeks to come to hand, he hopped on a plane with his lovely with Angelique and touched down at Changi.

Derreck only had two rides on Friday night and a handful on Sunday but his first ride at Kranji proved to be his best.

The Cliff Brown trained Poseidon had reeled off two wins on the trot and came into the race with some good form.

However, he was not the only contender in the race with form as

many talented four year olds were in the field.

In his toughest test to date and with a Jock that had never ridden on the course proper before, he had it all to do.

Step in Derreck David, who was lucky enough to be afforded any rides as he could only confirm his attendance on the day of race acceptances.

Derreck took him to the front, set comfortable sectionals and held off many a challenge, including the strongest one of all from Dragon Fury who again played bridesmaid.

I watched the Racing Guide Trophy from the main grandstand as I had interviews to do, but when Derreck looked like he may hold on, i was filled with immense pride that a young rider had overcome many factors to succeed in this high class event and even more so that I have known Derreck for many years and watched him improve from a 4kg claimer to going close to winning a triple crown!

Just having a fellow professional flying the South African flag high again makes me proudly South African!

Derreck rides again on Friday and then jets out to start his defence of his Champion Jockey Title on the island of Mauritius for 2016.

If you have not seen the ride, it was a well timed and well executed front running ride that Derreck can be very proud of!

mythological snapshot. The Dragon slain by the God of the Sea thanks to a divine ride from a mastercraftman named David.

“My dream has come true. I’m very emotional now, it feels unreal,” said David who had his equally ecstatic wife Angelique by his side after the win. “It was already a dream to ride here at the Singapore Turf Club and to win at my first ride, it doesn’t get any better than this.

“I have to say the wide draw was a concern, but he really pinged the gates tonight. I got him out quickly, which is something I’m pretty good at and when I saw a couple of horses inside me were slow I knew half the battle would be won once we crossed over.

“He travelled beautifully and in the straight, with only 52.5kg on his back, he didn’t stop. I tried to come out to intimidate the others but I didn’t have to as he had his ears pricked and never stopped.

“He’s a nice progressive up-andcoming horse and I’d like to thank Mr Cliff Brown for putting me on him.”

Repaid

The feeling was mutual with the Australian conditioner who had never met or heard of David before, but still took a chance with him and was repaid with a third consecutive win from the Olympian Stableowned gelding. “I was getting to know him and he was getting to know me, too. And we got a winner, how good is that?” said Brown.

“This horse showed good gate speed at his last win with Rueven (Ravindra) and I told Derreck to do the same from the wide barrier tonight. He rode him very well and it’s good for him he got a winner at his very first ride here.

“Things are going really well with this horse and the owners too.

They’re having a ball but we’ll just take it as it comes. He’s an easy horse to train. All we have to do is just get him ready, I don’t deserve much credit. He is a progressive horse and we may look at the Singapore FourYear-Old series with him.”

With that fifth win, Poseidon was completing a three-in-a-row with earnings closing in on the $320,000 mark.

Happy Laff

From one friend to another, it would be remiss of me not to mention my dear friend Paul Lafferty. Just to hear Laff had overcome cancer brought a big smile to my face and an overwhelming sense of relief.

Laff has been one of the biggest influences in my career to date and from the word go was forthcoming with advice and knowledge that was priceless.

Before I had the pleasure of forging a friendship with Laff he was one of my favourite presenters on Tellytrack and someone I always have and always will, look up too.

He believed in me and my ability from the beginning and when many had passed me by in preference for the newer or more established presenters, it was always Laff that encouraged me to persevere because he believed I had a bright future ahead of me.

Well done Laff, I am glad you overcame this speed bump in your life. Here is to the next “Jar” we share together my friend, please give Fenton my regards!

Till next time.

Retired Racehorses?

The bald facts

At the Scone Horse Trials in New South Wales on 6 March this year, a 17 year old girl named Olivia Inglis was killed in a rotational fall from her horse, Coriolanus.

With the arrival of Warmbloods and other purpose bred competition horses, the slice of the leisure industry pie for Off The Track Thoroughbreds (OTTBs) has got substantially smaller.

Most of us won’t ever have heard of Olivia, but she is connected to racing via her family, Arthur and Charlotte Inglis of the well-known Australian bloodstock firm and she was connected to the rest of the equestrian world via her love for horses.

A

fter the tragedy, fellow horsewoman Lisa Purcell, whose son Tyson rides and had competed against Inglis, took action. She said “You never really know what to say, or what to do, and you feel like you want to help. We heard the news quite quickly after it happened, and I said to my son on the phone, ‘Well, when you ride Bella tomorrow you should ride for Olivia.’ And I just sort of said it. And later that night he said, ‘Well, that would be a really good hashtag.’ ” With permission from the Inglis family, Purcell appealed to the equestrian community to post photographs of themselves and their horses doing what they loved best, using the hashtag #RideForOlivia.

They hoped to collect a few hundred photos to make a commemorative mosaic of Olivia, but were overwhelmed by the response.

The campaign went viral, with over 8 million equestrians from every discipline all across the world posting photos and sending messages of support in the first 3 days after the tragedy. The Inglis family are creating a scholarship in Olivia’s memory, the Olivia Inglis Eventing Scholarship, which will be dedicated to seeing young riders achieve success.

It was magical and uplifting to watch such a tragedy be used for so much good.

Family Purcell commented, “I think everyone just wanted to feel a part of it and do their bit, and it’s spread beyond eventing. I think anyone who owns a horse wants to be a part of it, from show jumping, to dressage, to western, to cutting, to barrel racing, vaulting. It’s so amazing to see some of the world’s best, like Charlotte Dujardin and William FoxPitt post it, too. I think the equestrian community, it’s actually a family. Even if you don’t know each other.”

The

final

product

was

unveiled on Monday, 14 March 2016, the day Olivia was laid to rest and whether it was used, or anyone ever acknowledges its existence, I’m proud to have contributed a photo.

Because as part of the equestrian community, I’m family too and thanks to Lisa’s hashtag, we’ve seen just how extensive that family is.

If it’s not too soon to say so, I think the hashtag has come to mean so much more than ‘just’ (if that could ever be possible) a tribute to a wonderful, promising young girl, taken too far too soon. #RideForOlivia has become a symbol of all that is good and precious and worth being a part of.

Which brings me to my next point. Like Olivia’s accident, it doesn’t start in a good place, but hopefully, through the hard work and efforts of a lot of people, it may yet have a positive outcome.

You can choose your friends As Purcell commented, the equestrian community is like a family and I have often made the same observation about racing. Of course, as the old saying goes, you can’t choose your family, but the great thing about racing is that we can. There is an application process.

Granted, it’s not as intensive as it once was (and perhaps more’s the pity), but there is at least a form to be filled in.

The fact that there is a form and that one has to actively apply for membership implies that there is a chance that one may not be accepted. I’m not sure how often anyone gets turned away these days, but for the first time in what feels like a long time, racing is actually taking something of a stand and putting up some barriers to entry and I think that’s great.

You see, I don’t want to be associated with asshats. I (and hopefully the rest of us) want to be associated with racing for all the noble and romantic reasons that make artists put brush to canvas, pen sonnets, break into song or whatever it is that artists do when

the muse visits. At its best, racing is a great and glorious sport, populated by great and glorious animals and the people who love them.

Of course, there is always that other side and there is always that pesky minority that poisons the well for the majority.

You only have to open a paper or fire up your web browser to be confronted by stories where racing is made out to be cruel and exploitative (if we’re lucky). Some stories are far worse. That kind of dirt sticks and it smears off on everyone associated with it. That’s not a community I want any part of and I don’t think anyone else wants to either. And finally, it seems, the NHA is making rules to try and prevent exactly just that.

Racehorse Retirement Rules I’m talking about the recently announced racehorse retirement rules. The new rules were promulgated (which, if anyone else is wondering, means “to make known by open declaration; publish; proclaim formally or put into operation”) on 11 March 2016 and are an amendment to the existing Rule 41.7.

In practice it means that the NHA is implementing rules to govern what happens to horses when they leave the track. Or if not to govern exactly, then at least to ‘guide’ owners in making their decision (this is South Africa – rules are guidelines, right?)

The new rule stipulates that ‘all Owners have a responsibility towards their horses, whether they have been successful or unsuccessful, and that Owners have certain obligations to make sure that their horses do not end up in unpleasant conditions.’ I like to think of it as the ‘asshat rule’ (as in, try not to be one).

The new rule comes into effect on 20 March this year and states that the owner of a racehorse will remain responsible for that horse for the rest of its life unless the horse’s ownership is

There is still a market for the good ones, but it’s not what it used to be and trust me when I say there are simply not enough happy endings to go around.

transferred to another owner or an owner in another racing jurisdiction (eg if the horse is sold abroad), to a stud, to the local Horse Care Unit (with the required fee), the horse is euthanased (and reported to the NHA) or the horse is sold at an auction approved by the NHA’s Chief Executive (I suppose that will shortly be the newly appointed Lyndon Barends, but that information may well be out of date by the time this goes to print - they really should just have done with it and install a revolving door to that office).

Lastly, the horse may be disposed of out of racing on condition that a “second career assessment form” has been completed by a vet, the owner and the trainer. There’s also the rather sensible directive that if necessary a horse’s medical history should be supplied in order to complete the form and a copy needs to be submitted to the Chief Executive within a week of a horse retiring from racing.

Business or pleasure Racing likes to advertise itself as a business. I’m not sure I agree with that label entirely, but it’s one we like to use from time to time.

Any business knows that PR and marketing can make or break you – ask Coca Cola.

Or Penny Sparrow.

Racing conducts its business in the public eye, so if we want to survive, we have to get it right. While life in the racing spotlight has been getting increasingly uncomfortable, for the first time in what seems like a very long time, we have implemented some rules that say ‘hey, we’re not prepared to put up with asshats. And anyone behaving like an asshat will be dealt with.’ If this carries on and someone actually enforces the rule, I might seriously consider reapplying.

A Better Future In its statement, the NHA says “The National Horseracing Authority firmly believes that all racehorses deserve to be treated with care and dignity when their racing career comes to an end. Thoroughbred horses are refined athletes and do excel in other equine sports such as polo, show jumping, dressage and equitation. However, they are not designed to withstand meagre or rural conditions and every effort must be made to prevent Thoroughbreds from ending up in circumstances where they would be neglected or abused.”

Paul Simon sang that there are 50 ways to leave your lover, and Kulula added ‘but only one way off this plane’.

Unfortunately in the case of a racehorse at the end of its racing career, there is also only one person who can decide it’s future. And that person’s name is in the box under ‘owner’.

There are lots of good homes out there. But let me also say that there are some that would comfortably feature in Dante’s nine circles of hell. I like to think I surround myself with good, kind, caring people but even so, I have seen things that would make your hair curl.

Seriously.

A sleek, shiny racehorse can be reduced to a bruised, broken, bloody hat-rack in a matter of a few weeks and if there are people out there doubting that fact, please email me and I’d be glad to furnish you with photographic evidence. It is not something you’ll forget in a hurry. And yet, when I warn yet another owner to be careful placing a horse because of the potential repercussions (and cite a few examples), I still get incredulous responses. Which means the point has not been hammered home firmly enough. So I’ll try again.

A Thoroughbred is purpose-bred, raised and conditioned (mentally and physically) to be a high performance, professional athlete. And that’s fine. As long as it is confined to the sort of environment it was designed to operate in. The problem comes when you take something designed for a professional and put it in the hands of someone who isn’t.

Here’s the deal.

There aren’t vast numbers of professional competition riders in South Africa and the majority of serious professionals opt for a Sport Horse of some description. So of the second home options left open to Thoroughbreds, the vast majority of those will be with amateur riders.

This is fine and there are lots of ammies who are perfectly capable of retraining a Thoroughbred, but there are plenty that aren’t.

Expecting things to work when the odds are clearly stacked against success is not only asking for trouble, it’s generally what causes the train wrecks we see splashed across the front pages of newspapers in the first place.

So clearly clear the historic ‘hope and pray’ approach is not working.

The answer?

The new rule comes into effect on 20 March 2016. Do I think it is going to solve the problem? No, I don’t. At least not in its current format, although I’m not sure we’ll ever have a satisfactory ‘one stop’ solution, nor should we expect one.

We will only have a viable solution when each and every one of us does our bit in making responsible decisions in retiring our horses.

The answer doesn’t lie in creating rules, it lies in education, so what I think we have here is a good start, but if we all contribute, have our say and do our bit, it can go a jolly long way to making a difference. And an industry that is prepared to stand up for the welfare of its horses is something I’d be proud to be part of. #RideForOlivia

Bad Call

The Radisha episode on 1 March at Fairview has had a sequel with jockey Teaque Gould being suspended for ten days as he was deemed to have ‘ridden in an unprofessional manner in that he failed to encourage his mount with sufficient vigour to participate in this race’. Our opinion - the filly should never have been passed fit to run in this race. But other than jockeys, raceday officials never seem to get reprimanded.

Apprentice Callan Murray reached the 100 winner mark in his career at Turffontein on Saturday and judging from the comments and fan interest on social media, he has got to be the most marketable commodity in the riding ranks. Polite, well spoken, cute (according to some FB posters) and blessed with serious riding ability, he really has the world at his feet.

Jockey Karl Zechner’s behaviour in the weighing room after the running of the third race at Fairview Racecourse on 26 February 2016 has resulted in him being charged with a contravention of Rule 72.1.18 in that he abused and swore at a licensed official.

A penalty of a fine of R12 000 of which R6 000 is wholly suspended for a period of 12 months was imposed.

While he had hoped to be back in the saddle six weeks after his fall in early February, Piere Strydom has recently been advised that he will be out of action longer than anticipated, taking him out of contention to ride Harry’s Son in the forthcoming Dubai Turf on World Cup night. That will be a major disappointment for the connections.

SPORTING SPONSORS

REALLY COOL Avontuur-bred Western Winter star filly Cold As Ice lines up in the UK All-weather Finals at Lingfield on Good Friday.

Over £1million in prize money is on offer.

Cold As Ice, who races for Kathy Finch and Belinda Kieswetter, is 3/1 fav for the 1400m F&M race, and 6/1 in the 1200m Sprint with Corals. Watch this space for more news.

Good Rules Rule

Stewards upheld a protest at the Sunshine Coast on Saturday after an objection over the number of strikes with the whip from a winning jockey. The two finishers involved dead-heated. After viewing the film stewards deemed Taylor Williams had struck her mount eight times prior to the 100m mark, which is in breach of the rules and which action materially affected the result. This is the first time a win has been overturned since the new whip rules came into force.

The Grand National will be sponsored by Randox Health from 2017 after the healthcare company agreed a “multi-million pound” five-year deal. The Northern Ireland-based firm replaces alcoholic drink Crabbie’s, which will sponsor the Aintree race for the final time on 9 April.

This is a second new sponsor for a major event in three months after technology company Timico took over the Cheltenham Gold Cup.

Pathfork Power Highlands Farm’s exciting young sire Pathfork was represented by yet another impressive winner at Kenilworth on Saturday.

Trainer Glen Kotzen is a huge Pathfork fan, and, having saddled the young sire’s first winner in the form of Corker, sent out yet another impressive Pathfork filly, South Side, to win. The R10 000 purchase Boland Stud bred South Side outgunned some highly regarded and well bred 2yo fillies when landing the odds in a maiden juvenile plate over 1000m, and she looks more than useful.

The Place To Race

Mike de Kock was quoted after two good winners at Meydan on Friday: “Alareef is a South African-bred by Summerhill Stud’s Stronghold and Shadwell-owned by Sheikh Hamdan.

Dubai remains a profitable place to race and we’ve shown so often how the relatively cheap South African runners can come here and earn good stakes – a Maiden Plate can be worth near half a million rands - you don’t get that anywhere else!”

MARKUS ON THE PONIES

Leading SA owner Markus Jooste told the Financial Mail recently that Steinhoff’s success was a trifecta of opportunity, luck and timing.

He also said that watching a horse win that he’d bred was like watching your child competing at primary school. He said that outside of rugby, racing was the sport he loved the most.

Eugene Freeman

Boland Colours Ceres based Boland Stud has been in eye-catching form of late.

With a pair of Var daughters (Cup Cake and Varlicious) taking the honours at Fairview on 19 February and Captain Aldo reeling off back to back wins in the Listed Wolf Power 1600 and Gr2 Hawaii Stakes, plus a number of Boland graduates making their presence felt on tracks around the country, we caught up with Eugene Freeman.

The fresh-faced, ever smiling Eugene is a regular fixture at sales, most often found with his neighbour and friend, Vaughan Koster. Eugene may be the public face of the stud, but the farm has a long history, starting with his grandfather, Charles Freeman.

another uncle, he inherited a substantial amount of money and so he ended up with a title as well as means and proved a great asset to the farm, introducing a great many new clients, such as Major Wyatt, whose Force Ten was born at Daytona.

Stud history

Milner was writing the turf guide at the time and gave them lots of publicity.

Charles Freeman (father to the affable – it seems to run in the family - Dr Frank Freeman), was a chartered accountant and settled in Ceres after being appointed to doing the accounts for the Deciduous Fruit Board.

The Boland breeding operation originally started at Daytona, where Charles farmed with fruit and sheep in partnership with his brother in law, Senator Paul van Zyl. When Frank Freeman qualified as a vet in 1963, he returned to Ceres to assist with the farm and established Ceres Veterinary Hospital. There was only one stud in the district at the time and that was Odessa.

Dr Freeman says “most of what I’ve learnt about horses, I owe to Colin Cohen. He allowed me to learn and make mistakes. He was very kind to me”.

It was Colin who originally suggested starting a boarding stud at Daytona. The deal was that Charles would continue to run the fruit and sheep while Frank would run the stud, as long as the horses remained self-funding.

Important friendship Celebrated breeding authority Sir Mordaunt Milner got them off the ground. Milner had kept his breeding stock with George Kramer at Broadlands, but when that farm was sold to the O’Neils, they didn’t want boarding mares and he needed to find alternate accommodation and so became Daytona’s first client.

Charles and Milner became great friends.

Originally introducing himself to the Freemans as a racing reporter, one of Milner’s uncles died and left him a title and he became Sir Milner. On the death of

Not only did Milner help expand their client base, but proved instrumental in the acquisition of Mexico II. Milner was at the York Club and ran into Peter Butler (Mexico II’s owner). At the time, Mexico II was based at Godrey Gird’s Wittehart Stud, but Godfrey felt the stallion was too small and had asked for him to be moved on.

When Butler asked Sir Milner for advice, he suggested moving the horse to Daytona adding that Butler would be wise to sell a half share in the stallion to the stud as they would then be incentivised to support him.

His comment, “Rather own half of a successful stallion than the whole of an average one’ sealed the deal and Harry Hotspur was one of his first progeny to be born at Daytona.

Frank relays the story of Harry Hotspur with relish. Mrs Barnard stood 2 mares at Daytona – Saturna and Royal Folly. When Major Barnard died, Mrs Barnard sought advice on how to breed the mares and was naturally recommended Mexico II. “For R250 she got Harry Hotspur and Maximillian!”

Harry Hotspur When Harry Hotspur was a yearling, Gary Player happened to visit the farm. He was very taken with Harry Hotspur and enquired what Mrs Barnard might accept for him. After agreeing a price, Player flew trainer Bertie Sage down to look the colt over and he reported “quite correctly” adds Freeman, that he didn’t have the greatest of front legs and would be likely to have trouble with them (which he did).

With a less than glowing report from the trainer, Player made a lesser offer, and Mrs

Barnard decided to keep the horse and he ended up being trained by Colin Palm.

Credit also goes to Paddy Duncan (owner of Duncan Motor Spares and whose son Alfred Duncan still has racehorses) who found foundation mare Confident. “Paddy was a true Irishman,” remembers Frank.

“Taught me a lot about horses.

Confident was on a Birch Bros sale as being in foal. Paddy got a colt and showed him to the mare and she showed that she was in season, so he proclaimed loudly that she wasn’t in foal and got her cheap,” he chuckles. Freeman later bought the mare from Duncan and she would go on to produce Mexican Charm (the dam of sprint champion Senor Santa) as well as the granddam of Cape Guineas winner, Flight Alert.

New beginnings In around 1974, the expanding breeding operation hit a stumbling block when Charles died and Daytona was sold to dissolve the partnership between his father and his uncle and the farm changed hands to Artur Pfaff.

Freeman moved to the nearby Hamlet, before purchasing Boland Stud in December 1975 and building it up to what it is today. The story has a fun twist as Dr Freeman and his wife Tanya now live in Ceres and run a B&B called Chantilly, purchased from the Pfaff estate and named in memory of the region of France where they once paid the Pfaff’s a visit.

Pfaff had his own stallions and wasn’t interested in Mexico II, so he was moved to Varsfontein Stud. Dr Freeman remembers that Mexico II had a fantastic temperament. “You could use him as a teaser. We put up teasing rails at the side of the camps, put a rider on him and rode him from camp to camp. They did the same at Varsfontein - that’s how we kept him fit!”

The list of track stars bred by the Freemans and loyal patrons includes Harry Hotspur, Kiss of Peace, Foreign Agent, Welcome Boy, Rotterdam, Ovarowned, Corning Touch,

Peri-Peri, Craftsman and the unforgettable Senor Santa, arguably one of SA greatest sprinters.

Senor Santa There is a wonderful tale about the sale of Senor Santa.

Micky Goss was selling a lot of high priced Northern Guests that year and after positive comments from Neil Orford opining that Senor Santa was the best Northern Guest on the sale, Freeman had high hopes.

Senor Santa was led through the sales ring with a reserve of R80k, but went unsold. Tony Rivalland came running up afterwards and made an offer and that, reminisces Frank, was that. “But you seldom make the money on your champion.”

However, his reward came a few years later when Senor Santa was at the height of his powers, and Boland consigned a half sister by Argosy for R350k.

Senor Santa was first trained by Tony Rivalland, before passing into the care of Willie Pieters. He raced in the interests of Messrs F.P. and H.J. Cawdry,winning 15 races from 1000 – 1600m, including 7 at Gr1 level. He was named 1987 ARCSA Champion 2yo Colt as well as Champion Sprinter for 1989 and 1990. Senor Santa enjoyed a long and happy retirement at Summerhill Stud, eventually passing on in 2014 at the ripe old age of 29. He is celebrated every year with the Gr2 Senor Santa Stakes, which will be run at Turffontein on 26 March 2016.

Generation next Eugene Freeman was born and raised on Boland Stud, following his dad around the farm from an early age. For him the bug bit early with Senor Santa.

“He was the first horse that got me passionate about racing. I was probably about 9 years old when he was Champion Sprinter. I had no idea of the commercial aspects of his success, but I’ll never forget sitting on the coffee table in front of the TV, watching his races with my family. The excitement this horse created was infectious – it got hold of everybody. I still get goosebumps and tears in my eyes. My father and I used to visit Summerhill every year after the Durban Sale and go and say hello to him. Those were special trips – not just seeing the horse, but also the time with my dad.

“There was a real family and emotional connection with him and he was always a really nice horse. Right from the time he was a foal – when my father

went to check on the yearlings at night, the others would get up or run away, Senor Santa would just look up and go back to sleep. All Mexican Charm’s later foals were like that – very bold, friendly horses. I guess it was a love affair with that family.’

“When I finished school, my mother said ‘farming is the last thing you do until you’ve got a degree’, so I studied BCom Management Accounting at Stellenbosch. After that, my mother figured maybe I won’t come back and farm!’ I went to England and worked at Weatherbys for 6 months. It wasn’t really my scene – I’m not an indoors kind of person and hated coming into the office in the dark and leaving in the dark, but I learnt a lot.

After that, I went to work at Juddmonte in Kentucky and that was amazing,” he enthuses. “Being out with the horses, working with the mares and foaling down, that’s what I love doing.” He also spent time at Mill Ridge under John Chandler, who was a family friend. “It’s a beautiful farm and I got to see horses like Gone West and Toussaud (Empire Maker’s dam). From there I was going to take a gap year, but my mother said it was time to come home and do some work for a change!’ he laughs good-naturedly.

Eugene came back to South Africa in 2005 and took up the reins at Boland, which he now runs alongside his wife, Hannelu. She is a qualified vet who holds an honours degree in equine reproduction and has joined Dr Freeman’s practice in Ceres. They get sent mares with reproductive problems from

all over the country and Eugene says his wife and father love the challenge.

“It was just before the markets crashed in 2008 and I remember my first year at the sales thinking ‘this is so easy, I don’t know what my parents are complaining about!’ A year later I found out very quickly.

Where it had been easy to get money for just about any horse, a year later you couldn’t give them away. Running a commercial operation teaches you very quickly not to breed with anything below standard the market is not very forgiving.

That was probably my biggest lesson, but my parents let me make the decisions and cry about my own mistakes.”

Eugene is focussed on building up the quality of his broodmare band before trying to increase the numbers and as their results reflect, the strategy is paying dividends. As quality fillies are hard to come by, he also breeds in partnership with clients, with Captain Aldo being the result of a partnership in Cuddle Me, owned by Aldo Girolo (who still owns a half share in the colt). With the Hawaii Stakes in the bag, he has stamped his credentials for the Horse Chestnut Stakes. Cuddle Me subsequently produced Cup Cake, who finished 3rd in last week’s Breeders Guineas.

Boland offer a quality draft for the 2016 National Yearling Sale, including a Var colt out of an own sister to Gr1 Premier’s Champion Stakes winner Talahatchie, a Judpot colt from the family of Olympic Duel and Dancing Duel and a Var colt from the family of Senor Santa and Cape Guineas hero Flight Alert.

A review of the week's best SPEEDRATINGS

Smart Performances

Scottsville 6th March The races around the turn at this meeting were switched to the outside track with the distance of race five being changed to 2000m.

A juvenile plate for fillies over 1000m got proceedings underway and here we saw a smart performance from the newcomer MYGIRLDOWNUNDER. Backed into joint favouritism at 9/10 during the morning, the daughter of Myboycharlie was taken straight to the front. She was always travelling well and drew clear easily when given rein over the final 300m to score by four and three quarters.

Another to win with authority on this card was NATAL in the faster of the two 1200m graduation plates. Sent off a well-supported favourite at 12/10, Michael Roberts’ charge also made all. He raced a length and a half clear for most of the journey and only had to be pushed out over the final 400m to extend his advantage to four.

The girl’s division of the graduation 1200m was won by the visiting JOAN RANGER. Always top of the boards, Lucky Houdalakis’s charge was soon positioned close to the speed. She took up the running 400m out and won well by two and a quarter from ELUSIVENCHANTMENT. The faster of the two 1400m races was the MR66 Handicap won

by ROY’S TWILIGHT. Freely available at 30/1 on the off, the daughter of Al Miqdaam took a bump at the start and as a result she raced in the rear early on. Once in the straight though, she quickly made headway and under a well-judged ride (The number of races run in each category shown in brackets) from Matthew *Denotes - Times taken by Clockwatcher • T = Turf • P = Poly Thackeray she got up late to score by SCOTTSVILLE (OLD) 6TH MARCH a length.

The 12/1 shot HANJI ran on well from midfield when getting up late to win the maiden plate over 1400m.

Sudden Shock Turffontein 8th March They raced on the inner track on Tuesday afternoon where the best bet on the card for many was the well weighted TROPHY WIFE in the allowance plate over 1800m. Always deep in the red, Sean Tarry’s charge wasn’t the quickest into stride and as a result she raced fifth of the six early on. Her stable companion INANINSTANT (in season) made the running and going through the 400m she was two lengths clear. The favourite looked to be full of running when she moved up to challenge 200m later, but try as she might she couldn’t get closer than three quarters at the wire.

Four of the afternoon’s nine races were run over 2000m and comfortably the quickest against the clock in these was HIGH DRAMA when doing the business in the MR67 Handicap. Sent off a well-supported favourite at 13/10, Joey Soma’s charge lost two lengths at the start and raced in the backend of midfield during the early part of the race. Once in the short home straight though, he made up the deficit quickly and won going away by three and a quarter after striking the front 250m from home.

The faster of the two 1450m races was the MR76 Handicap in which HYAKU registered his second career victory. Ridden to lead going through the 600m, Sean Tarry’s charge was marginally headed by the favourite DANZA 250m out and after a thrilling tussle all the way to the wire, he only got the verdict on the nod.

Race five on the card was a maiden plate over 1450m and here we saw a very comfortable victory for the easy to back DIVAR. Nibbled at on course into 10/1 from 14’s, Ormond Ferraris’ charge was swiftly guided over from a wide draw by Musi Yeni and made virtually all. He was three lengths clear coming off the strip and barely relinquished an inch of his advantage over the final 400m.

TITBITS Beaten just 0,6 lengths in the opening work rider’s maiden plate over 2000m, the lightly raced DETONATION was baulked for a run twice enroute from midfield.

Very Small Fields Greyville 9th March

This meeting was originally scheduled to take place at Scottsville. Trainer Dennis Drier saddled four winners on Wednesday afternoon, amongst them SEA FEVER in the fastest of the four 1200m events, a MR97 Handicap. Just six went to post and nicely positioned in third, he was always poised to strike. He did so as they approached the 100m marker and after a thrilling tussle with BEAT THE RETREAT below the distance, he only got the verdict by a neck.

By far the fastest of the two maiden juvenile plates over 1200m was the boy’s affair in which the nibbled at newcomer OVER SURE opened his account. Taken straight to the front

by Anthony Delpech, the son of Mogok led throughout.

He was always in command and although the form horse GINGERBREAD MAN chased hard, he went on to score very comfortably by two. Quickest home in the two 1400m events was EXECUTIVE POWER in the novice plate.

Another to make all the 9/10 favourite kept on strongly at the business end of the race and with the other two well beaten, he had MONTE CHRISTO held by a length and a quarter.

The faster of the two 1000m maiden plates was the boy’s division won by MR MCSTEAMY. Returning from a nine month layoff here, Garth Puller’s charge was yet another to make all in a small field. He raced just a length and a quarter clear for most of the journey before quickening clear over the final 300m to score by five and a half.

TITBITS The easy to back OH BOY flew over the final 200m when registering his third career victory in the MR80 Handicap over 1400m.

Consistency Reward Vaal 10th March They raced on the outside track on Thursday where the faster of the stopping the clock in the fastest time here was POLLY WOLLY DOODLE two 1600m events was the MR85 Handicap won by FORT MEYERS. in the second division of the MR68 Handicap. On leaving the stalls it Attempting to make all, the uneasy favourite was headed by STREET was YAWAYLA AWAYLA who elected to make the early running. RARING FLYER 500m out, but after regaining the lead 300m later, he won TO GO took over 600m out, but when the daughter of Judpot threw down the gauntlet 300m later going away by a length and a half.

The other 1600m event was a maiden plate and here we saw a she could find no extra. very easy victory for the 3yo CASHIN. Sent off a strong favourite at Michael Azzie’s charge ran 13/10, Ormond Ferraris’ charge was taken straight to the front and on strongly in the closing led throughout. He was always in command and with jockey Brandon stages of the race and Horses worth following at their next few starts...

Lerena looking around for challengers over the final 150m, he won ran out a very comfortable INANINSTANT (S Tarry, Gauteng) winner by two and a quarter MYGIRLDOWNUNDER (G Van Zyl, KZN) with plenty in hand by two and a quarter.

Three of the afternoon’s nine races were run over 1400m and from OVER IT. NATAL (M Roberts, KZN)

Thirty five years ago, this year, one of history’s greatest sires, Sadler’s Wells, was born - on April 11 to be exact. Champion sire in GB/Ireland on 14 occasions, Sadler’s Wells left behind an astonishing 330 stakes winners and his offspring won all the English classic races as well as many of the world’s other top features, writes Sarah Whitelaw.

he son of Northern Dancer, and three parts brother to another sire legend in Nureyev, Sadler’s Wells and his descendants have exerted a remarkable influence on the Breeders’ Cup –with Sadler’s Wells himself the sire of five Breeders Cup winners, including dual Turf hero, High Chaparral.

He is also the broodmare

sire of last year’s Gr1 Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Turf winner, Hit It A Bomb, (War Front), Silic (Sillery) and dual Turf winner, Conduit (Dalakhani).

Sadler’s Wells, whose grandson Dynasty had a stakes double (A Time To Dream and Olma) this past weekend, has not only exerted a tremendous influence through his sire sons but is also broodmare sire of no fewer than 315 stakes winners, and counting.

Sadler’s Wells has wrapped

up a staggering 16 leading Broodmare Sire titles, with his successes coming in five different countries.

So what does the future hold for this great male line?

In Europe, Galileo looks set to continue the male line with his proven sire sons including the likes of red hot sire Teofilo and proven classic sire New Approach (whose son, Dawn Approach, is standing in Ireland for €35 000).

Galileo also has a plethora

of unproven stallion sons in the wings, including the undefeated legend, Frankel, whose first crop race in 2016.

Other star sons of Galileo yet to be represented on the racecourse include Ouija Board’s champion son, Australia, and Breeders’ Cup Turf hero, Magician.

In North America, Sadler’s Wells grandsons include the top class sires Kitten’s Joy and Medaglia D’Oro (both

by Sadler’s Wells former US champion sire son, El Prado), both of whom already have a number of sire sons representing them at stud.

Kitten’s Joy has already wrapped up one US general sires title (2013) and his growing number of sons at stud includes G1 Secretariat Stakes winner, Admiral

New Stallion Off The Mark - PHILANTHROPIST

Drakenstein Sire’s First SA Winner

B

Drakenstein Stud’s Philanthropist was represented by his first South African winner from his first local crop on Sunday when his 2yo son Good To Give made a winning debut at Greyville.

red by Highlands Farm, Good To Give prevailed by a length from more experienced runner Ocean Drive South. The colt (who is inbred to the great mare Grey Flight) stopped the clock for the 1000m trip in 59.24 and Good To Give looks a really nice sort in the making.

Trained by Charles Laird and owned by Ingrid and Markus Jooste, Good To Give was a R700 000 buy from last year’s Cape Premier Yearling Sale.

His sire Philanthropist was a high class racehorse, whose six career victories included the G3 Queens County Handicap.

The chestnut, a son of one of Roberto’s best sire sons in Kris S, is one of three graded winners produced by the Mr Prospector mare Hidden Reserve –Reload (G3 Canadian Turf Hcp, G3 Tampa Bay Stakes) and Defer (G3 Laurel Futurity) being the others.

Runner up in the G2 Demoiselle Stakes and a four time winner of over $200 000, Hidden Reserve is a full sister to G1 winner and millionaire Educated Risk and a half sister to champion and G1 Breeders’ Cup Distaff winner Inside Information.

The latter, a member of North America’s Racing Hall Of Fame, won 14 of 17 outings and was North America’s Champion Older Female in 1995. At stud, Inside Information (Private Account) went on to produce multiple G1 winner

Good To Give wins on debut Smuggler (Unbridled) – USA’s Champion 3YO Filly of 2005.

This is the family of leading sires Sovereign Dancer (whose sons include Preakness Stakes winners Gate Dancer and Louis Quatorze), What A Pleasure (Champion Sire in USA in 1975 and 1976) and former SA leading 2yo sire National Assembly, as well as the once defeated Horse Of The Year, and breed shaping sire, Native Dancer.

Another top class member of this family is former South African champion Majmu, who was the country’s champion 2yo filly of 2014, while yet another prominent member of this family is

3 YEARLINGS

G2 Pennsylvania Derby hero Gone Astray, who was one of North America’s Leading First Crop Sires in 2015.

Philanthropist has more than lived up to his superb bloodlines at stud. North America’s Leading Synthetic Sire in 2014, the son of Kris S’s small first Canadian crop included the champions Pender Harbour and Phil’s Dream (whose wins included the Gr1 Nearctic Stakes), with subsequent stakes winners including Bear It’s Time, Eff Bee Eye, Grace Phil, Rexton, and Run In Aruba.

Philanthropist, who was second on North America’s Leading Synthetic Sires in 2015, is also the sire of illfated Hippolytus, runner up in one of Canada’s greatest races –the Queen’s Plate.

Philanthropist has 11 lots on offer at this week’s March Yearling Sale- including a filly out of a daughter of Giant’s Causeway and Gr1 Golden Slipper winner Burst (Lot149), a filly from the great Fall Aspen family (Lot 49), and a filly, whose winning dam, by Horse Of The Year Rock Of Gibraltar, is from the family of classic winning fillies Aquarelliste and Cape Verdi (Lot 82). www.capebreeders.co.za

Kitten, G1 Arlington Million winner, Real Solution and multiple graded stakes winner, Csaba.

Medaglia D’Oro, whose top offspring include champion fillies, Rachel Alexandra and Songbird, is an extremely versatile sire, whose offspring vary from Kentucky Oaks winners to Golden Slipper winners, with no fewer than 18 sire sons registered in the 2016 Blood Horse stallion register, and this number could yet grow substantially over the coming seasons.

His top class son, Mshawish, (a grade one winner on both dirt and turf) will retire to Taylor Made in 2016 and looks another flag bearer for this powerful male line in North America.

Mountaineer

Another son of El Prado, Artie Schiller, (a half brother to the dam of current SA star Silver Mountain) has enjoyed a good season with his 2yos in Australia, with his runners including group winners, Good Standing and Flying Artie, with the latter among the leading fancies for the world’s richest 2yo race, the G1 Golden Slipper. While his sons have not always been popular “Down Under”, there can be no denying that the Sadler’s Wells male line has made a considerable impact in both Australia and New Zealand. Sadler’s Wells line descendants have won both the G1 Golden Slipper and G1 Melbourne Cup, and include such stars as So You Think, Dundeel, and Vancouver.

The sadly now deceased High Chaparral also did much to enhance this sire line’s standing in the Southern Hemisphere, leaving behind seven G1 winners.

High Chaparral’s great son, So You Think, a ten time G1 winner in two hemispheres, has made a promising start to his stud career, with his early 2yo first crop winners including G2 winner Gold Rush and the stakes placed Conscious, and surely the best is yet to come for the dual G1 Cox Plate winner. Shuttle sire, Medaglia D’Oro, is another Sadler’s Wells line horse whose progeny have done well in Australasia, with his

3 YEARLINGS

progeny including G1 Golden Slipper winner Vancouver and current group winning 2yos Astern and Tessera.

Montjeu

In New Zealand, Cambridge Park’s Tavistock, a son of Sadler’s Wells’ great son Montjeu, is swiftly building a reputation as a genuine classic sire. The former champion sprinter has sired G1 winners in each of his first two crops to race and he could well ensure the Sadler’s Wells line remains a factor in Australasia.

Montjeu, sire of a former champion sire in Motivator, is also the sire of the Coolmore based Camelot, whose first foals sold up to €255 000.

In South Africa, the Sadler’s Wells male line looks secure for the time being, with his grandsons, Dynasty and Elusive Fort, both firing on all cylinders. Dynasty in particular looks set to continue this legacy with sons Jackson, Irish Flame, Futura, and Legislate all either at stud or destined for stud next season.

The legacy of Sadler’s Wells’ son, Fort Wood, could well yet grow further in this country –he is also damsire of champion and young sire, Capetown Noir, while he is the damsire of promising young Australian based sire, Pluck (More Than Ready).

Galileo is represented by a growing number of sire sons in South Africa, with the list including Kingsbarns, Global View and The Assayer, while High Chaparral’s son, Golden Sword, has his first crop of runners this season.

Sadler’s Wells is also damsire of champion racemare, Divine Proportions, whose Gr3 winning son, Eightfold Path, (Giant’s Causeway) has his first yearlings on sale in South Africa this year, and his champion grandson, Singspiel, has two sons at stud in South Africa – Lateral and Potala Palace.

Sadler’s Wells is also the broodmare sire of former Irish Champion and Gr1 winner, Pathfork (Distorted Humor), who has made such a promising start to his stud career and who is the sire of Saturday’s impressive debut winner, South Side.
