SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 9, 2014 732-747-8060 $ TDN Home Page Click Here FEATURE PRESENTATION • Gr.1 CRITERIUM de SAINT CLOUD EPIC PROPORTIONS Making all on his racecourse bow over a mile at Longchamp at the start of September and in the G3 Prix de Conde over nine furlongs back there Oct. 19, Khalid Abdullah=s Epicuris (GB) (Rail Link {GB}) proved again that he is a hard horse to keep tabs on when justifying 9-10 favoritism in the G1 Criterium de Saint-Cloud. Sizeable and blessed with a generous stride, the homebred had dominated the Conde after being left to his own devices in front and was again allowed a pressure-free lead under Thierry Thulliez here with the re-opposing runnerup from that contest Big Epicuris Scoop Dyga Blue (GB) (Galileo {Ire}) keeping closer attendance this time. No drama threatened until the field straightened for home, where the sextet fanned out as usual in search for a quicker strip of turf. Thulliez kept the bay three-wide from the hedge on the stand=s side and his mount was given some light flicks to secure the comfortable 2 1/2-length success from the German raider Palang (Hat Trick {Jpn}), who edged out Big Blue by a head for third. Cont. p3 A SATURDAY SURGE IN MEDIAN, AVERAGE by Lucas Marquardt The magic number at Keeneland November Saturday? $230,000. That was the high-water mark achieved by not one but four co-session toppers during the opening of the marathon sale=s Book 3. The quartet included a weanling colt from the first crop of GISW Bodemeister (Empire Maker), as well as mares by Cherokee Run, Touch Gold and Smart Strike. In truth, though, the numbers that caught the most attention were those that reflected the positive gains in average and median yesterday. During a lively session of trading, 257 horses sold for $15,538,500. The resulting average of $60,461 was up 18% from a year ago, when the session average was $51,240. Cont. p12 TERRAVISTA CROWNED IN DARLEY CLASSIC The G1 Darley Classic on the final day of the Melbourne Cup Carnival yesterday was billed as a showdown between the best sprinters Australia and Europe had to offer, with the likes of fourtime Group 1 winner Lankan Rupee (Aus) (Redoute=s Choice {Aus}) and this year=s G1 Diamond Jubilee and G1 July Cup Terravista winner Slade Racing and Sports Power (Ire) (Dutch Art {GB}) set to lock horns in a mouth-watering clash. In the end, it was Australia that claimed the trophy in the prestigious sprint, but honors went to Terravista (Aus) (Captain Rio {GB}), who overhauled Lankan Rupee inside the final 100 meters and held off a late charge from favored Chautauqua (Aus) (Encosta de Lago {Aus}). Terravista settled near the rear of the compact field while Lankan Rupee and Buffering (Aus) (Mossman {Aus}) led the way early, with Slade Power moving up to race on their heels on the inside rail after missing the break by a length.

Lankan Rupee, already under a vigorous ride from Chad Schofield, picked up the lead approaching the 200-meter mark as Terravista weaved his way between rivals. He hit the lead at the 50-meter mark and comfortably held off Chautauqua, who got up to be second. "I've known all along that this is the best horse that I've ever trained and I've been pretty bullish about him, so it was great to see him pull it off today," winning trainer Joe Pride told Racing and Sports.

This time last year, the lightly raced Terravista was amidst a three-race win streak at the benchmark level at Randwick in Sydney. He finished second in his stakes debut in his sixth start in Rosehill=s Listed Festival S. Nov. 30, and returned with a first black-type victory in Randwick=s 1200-meter G3 Southern Cross S. Feb. 22. He garnered a second group win next out in the G3 Liverpool City Cup at Warwick Farm Mar. 8, and wrapped up his autumn campaign after finishing 11th in the G1 George Ryder S. over 1500 meters Mar. 29. Terravista opened his 5-year-old account with another group-race double, taking the G3 Show County Quality S. at Randwick Aug. 23 and following up in the G2 The Shorts S. over the same course a month later. Shipping to Melbourne for the first time for the G1 Manikato S. Oct. 24, Terravista was described by his trainer as Athe world=s best sprinter@ before that 1200-meter event, but he wound up a luckless fifth behind Lankan Rupee. While he likely has a way to go to justify his trainer=s lofty opinion, Terravista was no doubt the best up the Flemington straight yesterday, and Pride told Racing and Sports he would choose the gelding=s future targets carefully. "I've got to consider prize money with a horse like this," the conditioner said. "He's done a pretty good job today and won a pretty decent check. We could possibly come back here for the [G1] Newmarket [H.], but the Sydney autumn holds some nice riches for him as well." Winning rider Hugh Bowman added his vote of confidence. "I didn't expect to be that far back but I've got confidence in Joe and I know the horse and I was happy ride him where comfortable," the jockey told Racing and Sports. "He was smoking and all he needed was a run and he didn't need much room. He's up there with best sprinters I've ridden, most of which have been younger horses, but he's the best weight-for-age sprinter I've been on." Slade Power pulled up lame after failing to land a blow, and trainer Eddie Lynam said the injury is likely a pulled muscle. "It's a hard day, but these things happen and we've been well looked after since we arrived here,@ Lynam said. AWe gave it a go--nothing ventured, nothing gained.@ Slade Power=s participation was cast into doubt the week before the race when it appeared that he may not be able to be loaded into the starting gates last, as has become his custom in Europe. In the end, Lynam and the officials were able to reach a compromise. "He went into the stalls third last,@ the trainer explained. AWe were happy with that and there were no problems on that score, but unfortunately he's come back lame. It's his last run and he'll be going to Darley's Kildangan Stud in Ireland. I hope he recovers quickly and has a great career as a stallion."

Hucklebuck settled fifth on the rail down the backstretch, about five lengths off the lead set by the popular Tasmanian raider The Cleaner (Aus) (Savoire Vivre {GB}). Switching off the fence as the field began to descend on The Cleaner rounding the bend, Hucklebuck Hucklebuck found an Racing and Sports opening while three wide at the top of the lane. Drawing even with the frontrunner under minimal urging passing the 300-meter mark, Hucklebuck had to call on his reserves to put The Cleaner away, and then had to fend off a late challenge from Lucky Hussler (Aus) (Husson {Arg}). "That was terrific,@ remarked winning jockey Dom Tourneur, who was recording his first Victorian Group 1. AThere were a lot of doubters at the trip, but he came out and showed them what he's made of.

That journey ended successfully with a listed victory at Caulfield last October and a second in the G3 Carbine Club S. over this track and trip two weeks later. Kicking off his autumn campaign with a handicap win back home at Morphettville, Hucklebuck returned to Melbourne to garner the G3 C S Hayes S. over 1400 meters here Feb. 15 prior to an eighth-place finish over this course and distance in the G1 Australian Guineas Mar. 1. A Queensland winter campaign included a fourth-place finish in the G3 Fred Best Classic May 17, and a sixth in the G1 Stradbroke H. June 7. Hucklebuck returned from a freshening to take the Listed Durbridge S. at Morphettville Oct. 18 and, after adding the G3 Yellowglen S. over 1400 meters here Nov. 1, was ready to dispel doubters of his abilities over the Flemington mile yesterday. Thomas Li, Chief Executive Officer of the Macau Jockey Club and owner of Hucklebuck, was on hand to enjoy the victory. "I thought the last 200 meters was very exciting," Li told Racing and Sports.

AWe've tried to win the Long Island with her for a few years; it's wonderful she's done it this year. She's going to go back to Europe and become a broodmare now. The trip [John Velazquez] gave her was between superb and unbelievable; that's what you call saving ground." Velazquez added, AThere were only two speed horses, and I [thought I'd] come out of there and get it the way I wanted, try to sit and wait, and that's the way it worked out. I had to bide my time inside the quarter-pole, but at the three-sixteenth pole she came running. I wanted to make sure I had room.

Hughes endured a delayed start to his European campaign this year after being injured in Dubai on the Mar. 29 World Cup Card, but he gradually reeled in the front-running Ryan Moore throughout the year. Hughes= championship treble was sealed when Moore opted to bypass the end of the British season in favor of overseas targets. Group 1 victories for Hughes this year included the G1 Queen Anne S. at Royal Richard Hannon and Richard Hughes Ascot with Toronado Racing Post (Ire) (High Chaparral {Ire}), the G1 Cheveley Park S. with Tiggy Wiggy (Ire) (Kodiac {GB}), and the G1 King=s Stand S. and G1 Nunthorpe S. with Sole Power (GB) (Kyllachy {GB}). The former pair are trained by Hannon. "It's been a long year, hard work but it's paid off,@ Hughes said. "I wouldn't ride winners if it wasn't for Richard Hannon. It was a seamless transition to Richard Jr. It's great to be part of it and I wish him all the luck in the future. I have to approach next year as I have this. I need to get motivated. I'll be going to Dubai for a spell in February." Hannon added, "It's been a great year and we have a lot of good horses to look forward to as well. We've had Olympic Glory and Toronado, who both won Group 1s this year. The regret, or the disappointing bit of the season, was we never got Sky Lantern back to what she was. She was a very special filly to me and I was a big part of her build-up. We've got a lot of good horses such as Ivawood and Estidhkaar and others for next year." Sheikh Hamdan Al Maktoum was Britain=s leading owner. Counted amongst his highlights was Taghrooda (GB) (Sea the Stars {Ire})=s G1 Investec Oaks and G1 King George VI and Queen Elizabeth S. wins, and Mukhadram (GB) (Shamardal)=s G1 Coral-Eclipse victory. " " KINGMAN TO COVER TAGHROODA This year=s four-time Group 1-winning miler Kingman (GB) (Invincible Spirit {Ire}) has been chosen as the first mate for Sheikh Hamdan=s Taghrooda (GB) (Sea the Stars {Ire}), heroine of this year=s G1 Investec Oaks and G1 King George VI and Queen Elizabeth S., according to Racing Post. Both 3-yearolds, Kingman and Taghrooda were stablemates at trainer John Gosden=s Clarehaven Stables. A homebred for Khalid Abdullah=s Juddmonte Farms, Kingman suffered his lone defeat Taghrooda when second in the G1 Racing Post 2000 Guineas, then subsequently collected the G1 Irish 2000 Guineas, G1 St James=s Palace S., G1 Sussex S. and G1 Prix Jacques le Marois. Taghrooda, meanwhile, in addition to her Oaks and King George victories, finished second in the G1 Yorkshire Oaks and third in the G1 Prix de l=Arc de Triomphe. "The decision of which mare visits which stallion is the result of a great deal of research and homework behind the scenes," Shadwell director Richard Lancaster told Racing Post. "The final decision is always Sheikh Hamdan's and he has very definite ideas about which crosses he would like to try, especially when it comes to using first season sires. To that end, we will also be supporting Mukhadram in his first season with a good number of our own mares."

AThe comments we got from the auction stand was that it was a lot of fun to sell today,@ said Keeneland Director of Sales Geoffrey Russell. AThere was competitive, spirited bidding from start to finish on mares and Cherokee Jewel foals. We saw a lot of Lucas Marquardt photo familiar names of people who play in the middle market. WinStar was the leading buyer. And Calumet, Gainesway, and Whisper Hill all bought today. It was a good session.@ WinStar=s upstart stallion Bodemeister had a big afternoon. Not only did he sire the day=s top-priced weanling, but one of the session=s top-priced mares sold in foal to him. The top weanling was a WinStarbred son of GISW Awesome Humor (Distorted Humor) who was consigned by Taylor Made Sales Agency as Hip 1327. Gerry Dilger signed the ticket as L D Bloodstock.

They included the Bluewater Sales-consigned Divine Dispatch (Touch Gold), a full-sister to GISW Composure and GSW Ready Set who was offered in foal to the redhot freshman Super Saver as Hip 1407. Gainesway purchased the 5-year-old mare, whose first foal is a Divine Park weanling filly. Also hitting the $230,000 level was Sweetest Sound (Smart Strike), a 5-year-old mare selling late in the day through Lane=s End as Hip 1670. Whisper Hill Farm=s Mandy Pope, sitting by herself in the pavilion, won out for the unraced full to MGSP Saint Vigeur and half to GSP Sweet Bliss (Street Cry {Ire}). Sweetest Sound, selling in foal to Twirling Candy, was produced by a three-parts sister to champion juvenile Sweet Catomine (Storm Cat) and the GI Breeders= Cup Ladies= Classic winner Life is Sweet (Storm Cat). Lane=s End sold her for the connections of those top racefillies, Pam and Marty Wygod. Filling out the $230,000 club was that mare who sold in foal to Bodemeister, Cherokee Jewel (Cherokee Run), who was hammered down to WinStar for $230,000, and who has given her connections a lucrative run of late. Like Divine Dispatch, Cherokee Jewel was sold by Meg Levy=s Bluewater Farm, going through the ring as Hip 1369. It was Meg=s husband Mike Levy who purchased Cherokee Jewel, in foal to Speightstown, for $75,000 at the 2012 Keeneland November Sale. Mike was acting on behalf of Mike Moreno=s Southern Equine Stable, which, just before the GI Kentucky Derby in 2012, had bought into Bodemeister. As Bodemeister prepared to head to the breeding shed that fall, Mike Levy and Mike Moreno purchased about 10 mares to support the young stallion, including Cherokee Jewel. It didn=t take Moreno long to get into the black on the mare. The foal Cherokee Jewel was carrying was Bayerd, who sold for $135,000 at the 2013 FasigTipton October Sale, and who this year has been very good for trainer Steve Asmussen. Bayerd broke his maiden at Saratoga by 11 1/2 lengths in August, then shipped to win the Kip Deville S. at Remington Sept. 28. On Friday night, he ran second at odds-on in the Clever Trevor S. at Remington. Cont. p14 TDN P HEADLINE NEWS • 11/9/14 • PAGE 14 of 18 • thoroughbreddailynews.com That helped the chances of a Speightstown full-sister to Bayerd who was offered by Bluewater at the October Sale just a few weeks ago. That yearling filly, already named Speightstastic, was hammered down to Wayne Sanders and Larry Hirsch for $160,000. Yesterday=s sale of Cherokee Jewel concluded Moreno=s run with the mare, who helped generate $525,000 in gross auction revenue for her connections, including her own sale and the sale of her two Speightstown yearlings. Keeneland November resumes today at 10:00 a.m. and runs through Friday, Nov. 14. For more, visit www.keeneland.com. Bodemeister Colt Tops Weanlings... This past summer, the principals at WinStar Farm traveled around and inspected weanlings from the first crop of their Empire Maker stallion Bodemeister. Farm CEO Elliott Walden and his team were rightly impressed, but noted that most breeders of Bodemeister=s best representatives were waiting to sell at next year=s yearling sales. AI=d said of the top 30 we ranked, most or all were going to be sold as yearlings because they were so nice,@ Elliott Walden said Walden. Keeneland Photo So Walden decided to send through some of WinStar=s best Bodemeister foals at the November sales, Aso that people knew what kind of stock he was getting,@ he explained. It was mission accomplished during yesterday=s fifth session at November, where a WinStar-bred colt from the farm=s Grade I-winning mare Awesome Humor (Distorted Humor) brought $230,000 to lead all weanlings and co-top the session. Taylor Made consigned the colt as Hip 1327. AHe was just a really good colt,@ he said. AI didn=t really want to part with him because I thought he=d make a good yearling. He was one of our best foals.@ The colt is one of 18 Bodemeister foals to sell at Keeneland so far. The group has averaged $122,167 off Bodemeister=s introductory fee of $30,000. It=s interesting to note Bodemeister=s median is even higher--$132,500--which is sometime of a rarity and typically indicates across-the-board quality. AHe=s getting good, athletic types that have a really good look to them,@ said Walden. AThey=re wellbalanced, have good movement, have a sharp color-they look like classy horses.@ Walden said another good WinStar-bred representation of Bodemeister goes through the ring today as Hip 1939. Craig and Holly Bandoroff=s Denali Stud consigns the son of the GII Adirondack S. third Magic Appeal (Successful Appeal), a full-sister to the Grade I-winning juvenile J P=s Gusto. AWe put them on separate days because we expected them to sell well and we wanted people to showcase them,@ said Walden. Campaigned by Zayat Stables and later with partner Mike Moreno, Bodemeister roared into the 2012 Triple Crown picture under the tutelage of trainer Bob Baffert. He dominated stablemate Secret Circle (Eddington) by 9 1/2 lengths in the GI Arkansas Derby in his fourth career start, and later ran one of the better losing races in GI Kentucky Derby history. In the Derby, he sprinted through :45 1/5 and 1:09 4/5 fractions before being overhauled by I=ll Have Another (Flower Alley) late. He also finished second to that foe in the GI Preakness S. before sustaining a career-ending shoulder injury. AWe=ve bred about 10 mares a year to him, and are just very high on his chances,@ said Walden. AI think it=s interesting to note that the right people are buying them: Chris Baccari, Gerry Dilger bought the one today, Debby Oxley, Mike McMahon. Some really good judges of horses are buying them.@ It=s safe to say that Bodemeister hasn=t been hurt by the success of his barnmate at WinStar, Pioneerof the Nile, who shares a similar profile: by Empire Maker, owned by Zayat Stables, trained by Baffert, ran second in Bodemeister the Derby, etc. Benoit Photo Pioneerof the Nile is the sire of five first-crop stakes winners, including the graded winners Cairo Prince, JoJo Warrior, Midnight Storm and Vinceremos, as well as this year=s standout juvenile American Pharaoh. AI think it definitely helps,@ said Walden. APioneerof the Nile is obviously his own stallion, and the bottom side of their pedigrees are different, but any time you have a son come out and do what he has for Empire Maker, it certainly helps his other sons.@ Cont. p15 (718) 978-8200 w w w .mersant.com Sponsors of the following stats for the: KEENELAND NOVEMBER SALE CUM ULATIVE Catalogued No. Offered No. Sold RNAs % RNAs No. $1m+ High Price Gross Average (% change) Median (% change) 2014 1677 1354 1046 308 22.8% 18 $3,900,000 $166,443,000 $159,123 (+7.7%) $90,000 (+5.9%) 2013 1611 1301 1063 238 18.3% 14 $4,000,000 $157,021,200 $147,715 $85,000 TDN P HEADLINE NEWS • 11/9/14 • PAGE 15 of 18 • thoroughbreddailynews.com The two stallions previously stood in the same general range at WinStar--Bodemeister stood the 2014 season for $30,000, Pioneerof the Nile for $20,000-but due to the latter=s success, WinStar boosted his 2015 to $60,000. AWe just couldn=t be happier with the year Pioneerof the Nile=s had,@ said Walden. AComing into this year he had Cairo Prince, and since he=s just had horse after horse pop up. Maybe the best one was the horse who didn=t win a graded stakes--Social Inclusion--who beat Honor Code and finished third in the GI Preakness. Even though we did raise his stud fee rather aggressively, we=re going to limit his book to 120 mares, and the breeder response has been great. So we feel like we priced him fairly.@ Walden also provided an update on WinStar=s newest addition, the treble Grade II winner Fed Biz (Giant=s Causeway), who was retired yesterday to the farm at a fee of $12,500. AWe=re just real excited about him,@ said Walden. AHe=s a horse that reminds me of Distorted Humor when we got him. They=re both multiple graded winners who, while they didn=t win Grade I=s, had Grade I talent. Both are track-record setters at seven furlongs, and as a $950,000 yearling, Fed Biz is a beautiful horse. We think he has a chance to be here for a long time.@ Maryland-bred Tapizar Colt Goes for $190,000... The Maryland-based breeder David Moose has done well since purchasing the mare Strict Access (Mr. Greeley) for $29,500 out of Fasig-Tipton=s Midlantic December Sale in 2012. First, he sold the Tizway filly she was carrying at last year=s Keeneland November Sale for $50,000. Then he returned yesterday to November to sell the mare=s latest foal, a Maryland-bred colt by Tapizar (Tapit), for $190,0000. Gerry Dilger purchased the colt under the Lakeview Stables banner. It was the second-highest price for a foal sold during Saturday=s session. Moose, who bred the colt with his wife and with Finale Farm, offered the horse through the consignment of David and JoAnn Hayden=s Dark Hollow Farm. The chestnut sold as Hip 1666. A[David]=s got a farm about four miles from our farm in Maryland,@ explained David Hayden. AWe suggest the matings, he raises the weanlings, and then we sell them for him. I think we=ve been selling for him for the last four or five years. We had a More Than Ready weanling filly sell here a few years ago for $200,000, so we=ve gotten lucky together a few times.@ Moose operates a landscaping contracting business in Maryland. Strict Access is a winning half-sister to MSW Access to Charlie (Indian Charlie) from the SW Media Access (Devil=s Bag). Tapizar won the GI Breeders= Cup Dirt Mile at Santa Anita and two other graded stakes. He stood the 2014 season at Gainesway Farm for $15,000. AAfter the Tizway filly sold, I suggested that we breed to Tapizar, who I love, and off a $15,000 stud fee, we did all right,@ said Hayden. Asked about the appeal of Tapizar, he explained, AYou have to love Tapit, and he=s a great son of Tapit. He won the Breeders= Cup Dirt Mile, and he=s a beautiful horse. We actually bought a share in him, and we=re excited because we have two more bullets at home by Tapizar who will head to the yearling sales next year.@ KEENELAND NOVEMBER SATURDAY’S TOP MARES Hip 1369 Name Status Price ($) Cherokee Jewel i/f to Bodemeister 230,000 (m, 11, Cherokee Run--Betty’s Star, by Pentelicus) Consigned by Bluewater Sales LLC, Agent XLI Purchased by WinStar Farm LLC 1407 Divine Dispatch i/f to Super Saver 230,000 (m, 5, Touch Gold--Party Cited, by Alleged) Consigned by Bluewater Sales LLC, Agent XXXI Purchased by Gainesway 1670 Sweetest Sound i/f to Twirling Candy 230,000 (m, 5, Smart Strike--Sweet Way, by Giant’s Causeway) Consigned by Lane’s End, agent for Pam & Martin Wygod Purchased by Whisper Hill Farm 1375 Classy Coco Racing/B’mare Prospect 220,000 (f, 4, Not For Love--Very Classy Gal, by Giant’s Causeway) Consigned by Darby Dan Farm, Agent XLVII Purchased by Larry Johnson/Jane Buchanan, agent 1379 Conkate i/f to Into Mischief 210,000 (m, 5, Exchange Rate--First Glory, by Honour and Glory) Consigned by Bedouin Bloodstock, Agent VII Purchased by WinStar Farm LLC 1541 Mayoress (GB) i/f to Medaglia d’Oro 210,000 (m, 11, Machiavellian--Minister Wife, by Deputy Minister) Consigned by Bluewater Sales, Agent XXXIII Purchased by Fred W Hertrich III 1293 Wholelottashakin B’mare prospect 200,000 (m, 5, Scat Daddy--Carr Shaker, by Carr de Naskra) Consigned by Woods Edge Farm (Peter O’Callaghan), Agent VII Purchased by Sabana Farm (David Seguias, agent) SATURDAY’S TOP WEANLINGS Lot Sex 1327 colt Sire Dam Price ($) Bodemeister Awesome Humor 230,000 B-WinStar Farm (KY) Consigned by Taylor Made Sales Agency, Agent CXLI Purchased by L D Bloodstock 1666 colt Tapizar Strict Access 190,000 B-Finale Farm and Mr & Mrs David Moose (MD) Consigned by Dark Hollow, Agent I Purchased by Lakeview Stables 1609 colt Pioneerof the Nile Rapid City Kitty 160,000 B-V Gail Ray (KY) Consigned by St. George Sales, Agent XXV Purchased by John C Oxley Cont. p16 $7,500 stands and nurses TDN P HEADLINE NEWS • 11/9/14 • PAGE 16 of 18 • thoroughbreddailynews.com KEENOV Toppers cont. 1428 filly Into Mischief Elusive Temper 140,000 ($100,000 in utero RNA ‘13 KEENOV) B-Mr & Mrs Donald Valpredo (KY) Consigned by Lane’s End, agent Purchased by North Face Racing 1591 filly Uncle Mo Peppy Rafaela 135,000 ($100,000 in utero ‘14 KEEJAN) B-Frank T Batten (KY) Consigned by Blandford Stud (Padraig Campion), agent Purchased by McMahon & Hill Bloodstock BLACK-TYPE PREVIEWS Sunday, Krefeld, Germany, post time: 3:10 p.m. PREIS DER DEUTSCHEN BESITZER -

In four previous head-to-head meetings, Wildcat Red had finished in front each time, but East Hall finally exacted his revenge in this nominal prep for the $350,000 Sunshine Millions Classic at Gulfstream Jan. 17. Beaten 10 1/2 lengths into second by Wildcat Red in the Quality Road S. across town June 28, East Hall was up late for a 9-1 upset of the Ohio Derby July 19, but reportedly grabbed a quarter when a midpack sixth to Vicar=s in Trouble (Into Mischief) in the GII Super Derby Sept. 6. That effort may have had some believing he didn=t measure up in graded company, and the chestnut was allowed to go off at 16-1 in the GII Indiana Derby Oct. 4, but he pestered Vicar=s in Trouble the whole way and outstayed him to score by a length with Luis Saez aboard for the first time. Longshot I=m Steppin= It Up (Congrats) beat Wildcat Red for early speed and took them around the first turn, as East Hall raced last but one and slipstreamed Schivarelli down the backstretch. The third choice came under a busy ride fully 3 1/2 furlongs from the wire, but sustained a rally into contention four wide to the outside of Schivarelli into the stretch. Wildcat Red, who took command under a confident Edgar Prado at the five-sixteenths marker, led into the final furlong, but East Hall had his measure and was going away late. AWe may give him some time now or we may end up in the Clark [H. at Churchill Downs Nov. 28], who knows,@ said winning trainer Bill Kaplan. AAnything=s possible. He=s that kind of solid horse."

J “TDN Rising Star” J Mr. Jordan made a much-anticipated second career trip to the post here, having demolished Monmouth maidens by 6 1/4 lengths first up Sept. 14. A bit rambunctious in the gate, the flashy gray colt was off in a tangle and didn=t look all that happy when forced to race in midpack behind the early speed of Lakota Warrior (Maimonides). He settled better and slid through at the rail nearing the turn and was just in Mr. Jordan behind the A Coglianese pacesetter, only in need of room at the top of the stretch. Eased out to the three path by Paco Lopez, Mr. Jordan edged to the front with a furlong to race and was under a hard hold to score by a decisive margin. AI love the horse,@ said Lopez. AThe first time, he was a little bit green. The horse is still learning, but I think the horse has a lot, a lot of talent.@ Of his trip, Lopez added, AI had a lot of horse. I didn=t want to make the lead. I wanted to teach the horse to come from behind and get a little bit of dirt in the face. He did pretty good. I asked my horse and showed him the whip and I had a lot of horse.@ Cont. p2 J. Michael O’Farrell, Jr. P.O.

Regarding Mr. Jordan, winning conditioner Eddie Plesa added, AYou have to have guts to win races. He overcame a start; he overcame horses in front of him. If you looked at him before, maybe people thought he was just a speed demon who just overshadowed everybody, but he proved today that he could sit off the pace and be patient. I thought Paco rode an outstanding race on him. He was the best horse. I told my partners, >My feeling is he=s the best horse, but he=s got experience going against him. He=s going against horses that have run four or five times. If experience doesn=t kill us, we should win the race.=@ Of what might be next for the grey, Plesa offered, AI haven=t plotted it out. I will sit down after this race and come up with some kind of plan. Paco=s always had the impression that the horse will go around two turns. He said that before this horse ever ran. He said this horse will go all day. I think he will go around two turns, so there=s a lot to look forward to.@ Click for the brisnet.com chart or VIDEO. PEDIGREE INSIGHTS...

Well supported again when returned to that course and trip Aug. 30, the bay came home a narrow winner after a rough trip. Given a chance to reproduce that form on the dirt in the Oct. 4 GI Breeders= Futurity at Keeneland, Firespike came home seventh.

Swinger=s Party reeled off a pair of stylish victories over Calder=s main track last spring, including a ninelength romp against two-other-than company June 23. Runner-up behind the talented Dreaming of Sophia (Lewis Michael) in a sloppy renewal of the Cellars Shiraz S. in July, the filly rounded out the season with a fifth in the grassy Judy=s Red Shoes S. in September. A credible second after setting the pace in the June 14 Nancy=s Glitter H., the dark bay tired badly to finish last of seven in the nine-furlong GIII Shuvee H. over the muddy Saratoga track and was given a 4-1 chance to get back on track in this cut back in class and trip. Settled in a stalking third behind favored Devil=s Cave (Put It Back) and Puddifoot (Red Giant), the Marty Wolfson trainee took command through 3/4 of a mile in 1:13.39, opened a solid advantage approaching the stretch and had enough left to fend off Flutterby. Devil=s Cave, who was last seen finishing third in the May 2 GI La Troienne S. at Churchill Downs, faded to fifth, while Puddifoot trailed home in eighth. AIt was a very tough race up there,@ said winning trainer Marty Wolfson. AShe just loves this track. She won two in a row last year [by open lengths], so she loves it here. She=s very, very good when she=s fresh and she comes from off the pace now. She didn=t used to; she used to go right to the front.@ As for the beaten favorite, Wolfson added, ADevil=s Cave needed the race. She hadn=t run for a long time. I=m not happy the way she had to go :47 and :23. I thought they=d go a little slower; that always takes a toll.

Seventh to that rival in the Florida Stallion My Dear Girl S. when last seen unsuccessfully stretched out to 1 1/16 miles Oct. 4., the homebred--who races for the same connections as her MSW & MGSP sire-Adam Coglianese caboosed the field from her extreme outside draw early.

Hangover Saturday kicked off her career with a sharp score sprinting five panels over the Gulfstream lawn Aug. 8 before faltering and trailing home last of 13 in the seven-furlong Susan=s Girl S., part of the Florida Sire Stakes, on the dirt Sept. 6. Back on the grass for the Our Dear Peggy S. over a mile Oct. 4, the bay pressed the early pace and wilted late to be fifth, beaten 5 1/4 lengths. Sent off the 5-2 second choice behind favored Like a Queen (Corinthian), runner-up in the Our Dear Peggy S., Hangover Saturday assumed her customary place at the head of affairs and was allowed to saunter through opening fractions of :25 and :51 1/5.

He made a nifty inside-to-out move to pick off several rivals coming into the lane, and sidled up to the leading duo at the head of the straight.

The homebred bay was a debut fourth behind the impressive Handy Candy (Candy Ride {Arg}) when favored for his six-furlong debut over this track Sept. 6, and most recently took care of business in a seven-furlong Keeneland maiden Oct. 12, defeating Hottap (Tapit) and Fasig-Tipton Midlantic topper Old Mountain Lane (War Front) by a comfortable 3 1/4 lengths. Stretching out to two turns as part of the even-money entry, Sky Hero stalked the pace while under a long hold from Julien Leparoux and edged to the front nearing the stretch. He turned back a challenge from Jack Tripp (Flatter) soon after and held off the late bid from his entrymate for the victory.

The historic classic, first run in 1972, has usually determined World Championship honors. The move comes two weeks after Allred canceled the $1-million estimated Los Alamitos Super Derby in the wake of suspicious results from the trials for that event. A statement from the track read, AIt was felt by track management for several reasons that this year=s edition of the race would not draw a representative field of horses from the nation=s leading quarter horse tracks.@ In the release, Allred added that, AThe major quarter horse tracks and the American Quarter Horse Association need to standardize and enforce regulations prohibiting clenbuterol and its analogues.@ On Dec. 13, 2014, the date of the cancelled Champion of Champions, a $100,000-added Christmas Invitational will be featured at 400 yards for 3-year-olds and up.

In a year in which he has carried all before him, it was only fitting that David O=Meara should place the full stop on the British turf flat racing season in this traditional closer. As with many of his stable runners, Open Eagle has improved and flourished markedly since coming under the auspices of the country=s brightest training prospect. Spending his formative period with Jean-Claude Rouget, the bay failed to make into the type of performer that conditioner requires and so passed into the hands of O=Meara during last summer. Third in this race on only his second start for his new barn, he had finished out of the frame in six subsequent starts before enjoying a revival on his last three and entered this on the back of a win over 10 furlongs at Redcar on Tuesday. Taken wide from the other runners to avoid the gluepot conditions, he traveled like the winner a long way from home and once pointed at the winning line turned the last four furlongs into a procession. AThat was a great performance,@ jockey Daniel Tudhope commented. AThe ground is obviously a lot better out there in the middle of the track and David [O=Meara] told me to go as wide as I liked. He got the tactics right.@ His typically understated trainer added, AThat was a great ride. History says you can go wide around here and gain a bit of an advantage and we were drawn out anyway. We=ve had some really good ones this year.@ British report cont. p10 TDN TODAY CLICK HERE to sign up Headline News. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 14 pages TDN P AROUND THE WORLD • 11/9/14 • PAGE 10 of 14 • thoroughbreddailynews.com British report cont.

Relishing soft ground when capturing handicaps over five and six furlongs respectively at Newcastle Apr. 5 and York May 14, Aetna was unlucky to be only third on a faster surface over this trip at Newmarket Sept. 25 before finishing 10th in York=s Coral Sprint Trophy again at this distance last time Oct. 11.

In attritional conditions as Britain=s flat turf season drew to a gloomy end, Lady Tiana proved the most relentless as she captured a first black-type success with a dash of style. Having shown that this type of ground held no fears when winning over nine furlongs in a Sandown handicap May 22, the bay was back in the winner=s spot again on a soft surface over this trip at Nottingham Oct. 15. Racing with enthusiasm under cover in fifth, she was held on to by Graham Lee, who allowed Merry Me first run in midstretch, but loomed alongside that rival traveling strongly with a furlong to race. Quickly asserting when shaken up, she was pushed out with hands and heels as Princess Loulou belatedly appeared on the scene. 1st-DON, ,8,000, Mdn, 2yo, 6fT, 1:19.35, hy.

KINGSCOTE HOSPITALIZED AFTER FALL Jockey Richard Kingscote, who rode Brown Panther (GB) (Shirocco {Ger}) to victory in the G1 Irish St Leger in September, underwent surgery on his arm after sustaining several injuries in a five-horse pileup at Wolverhampton Thursday. Kingscote suffered a broken wrist, forearm, elbow and collarbone, as well as a punctured lung. Sheikh Hamdan=s retained rider, Paul Hanagan, was also involved in the spill, and he suffered a broken collarbone. The rider's agent, Richard Hale, said, "It was a clean break of the collarbone and he'll be out for a good month. At least it's the end of the season, and he'll be back for the [Dubai] Carnival. It could have been much worse." Fitz Flyer (Ire) (Acclamation {GB}), the horse that broke down and caused the chain reaction, was fatally injured.

Prepping for the Oaks when runner-up in the May 7 Listed Cheshire Oaks over an extended 11-furlong trip, Secret Pursuit lost her chance to contest the Epsom Classic when running too freely and fading into fifth in Goodwood=s Listed Height of Fashion S. over this trip May 22. Off since beating only one of her 23 rivals in Royal Ascot=s Listed Sandringham H. reverting to a mile June 18, the bay relished the testing conditions to secure a clear-cut first black-type success. Always close up in a stalking second, she was allowed to stride to the front at the top of the stretch and steadily drew away for a commanding score. AShe is a nice filly who needs the ground as soft as it was today,@ commented trainer Marcus Tregoning. AAfter her last race, we gave her a good break and she came back fresh and well. It was much too firm for her in the summer anyway and as we bought her here at the Breeze-Ups she was eligible for the premiums.

Cont. p14 Benefits of The Light Mask Advances the breeding season Prevents prolonged gestations Increases average foal birth weights Optimizes stallion fertility Improves coat condition Permits outdoor maintenance for happier, healthier horses Safety tested for optimum eye health Reduces management costs Fully automated Scientifically validated Have You Seen The Light? “We used Equilume Light Masks on our barren mares last season at Jackson Purchase Farm. I am happy to say that the masks worked great. All of the mares had breedable follicles and had gone through transition by February 14th. In the winter of 2014 we had zero issues with the mares being outside 24/7, often in sub-zero temperatures. Besides the fact that the mares all cycled as I hoped, I spent less on van and vet charges and had healthier mares. Like extended turnout for any class of horse, daily observation, occasional adjusting of masks and adjustment of feed and hay is necessary. For me the economics were good and the mares simply did better outside. I am a believer!” - Dr. Steve Jackson, Bluegrass Equine Nutrition, Lexington, Kentucky. It is recommended that Equilume™ Light Masks are fitted between November 15th & December 1st for maximum effect.
