APeople are always very anxious to see the yearlings by the new stallions,@ Browning said. ACertainly there is always great interest and anticipation to see the first crops of some of the horses we watched and admired on the racetrack. This year is certainly another interesting group of first-crop yearlings and there should be a lot of very popular stallions that emerge from this group and I think the market will receive some of them very well.@ From a catalogue of 349 head, a total of 196 yearlings sold at the 2018 July sale. The average was $100,829 and the median was $75,000. A colt by Flatter brought the auction=s top price of $520,000.

AThere was great competition on what were perceived on the higher quality offerings and not as much competition on what were perceived as the lower quality offerings.

The Hinkles purchased My Rachel for $125,000 at the 2008 Keeneland November Sale, carrying her first foal by Arch. The resulting foal was MSP Firehouse Red, who in turn produced GSW Draft Pick (Candy Ride {Arg}). My Rachel is also responsible for MSP Rachel=s Ready (More Than Ready). All five of her foals to race are winners, including the 3- year-old colt Pep (City Zip), and the 17-year-old mare has a juvenile filly named Wexx (Declaration of War) and a yearling colt by Honor Code.

AThe mare is getting a little bit older,@ Hinkle said. AWe still have the mare, My Rachel, and she has thrown nothing but runners. She has one daughter who is already a graded stakes producer. We just love the family and want to stay in the family. This filly proved herself on the track, so we are really glad to have her back on the farm and in the broodmare band.@ Orbolution was purchased by Jack Wolf=s Starlight Racing for $370,000 at Keeneland September and raced as part of the group=s all-female arm known as StarLadies Racing. Trained by Todd Pletcher, who also conditioned her dam on behalf of Steve Young=s A1A Racing, the bay broke her maiden at third asking at Saratoga in 2017 when switched to the turf and stretched to two turns.

AThere is an offer on the table and they are going to think about it overnight,@ said consignor Archie St George. AThere is huge upside to her. She=s a very fast filly and we=ll just have to see.@ Doug Cauthen was bidding out back and, after the filly went through the ring, huddled up with St George and trainer Dermot Magner. The bloodstock agent confirmed he had made a post- sale offer on the filly. Asked if he was surprised the filly hadn=t reached her reserve, St George said, AYes and no. The number they wanted was obviously big, but they race and she came here with the idea that if she brought what they wanted, great. If not, they can race her. There are plenty of options out there--there is a $200,000 stakes next week.@ @JessMartiniTDN

AI don=t know that people are totally focused on broodmares here, but you don=t steal anything,@ he said.

It is a similar story with Concrete Rose, the highly progressive filly who dominated the Belmont Oaks. Her second dam, the British-bred Sky Blue Girl, never raced before producing six PERFECTLY IMPERFECT named foals (and two unnamed), of which only two won and Breeders operating on limited budgets can find none earned black type. When Concrete Rose=s dam Solerina encouragement from the pedigrees of both of the 3-year-olds was offered for sale as a weanling, she RNA=d at $15,000 and which shone in last weekend=s GI Invitational turf races at Concrete Rose herself made only $20,000 as a yearling, before Belmont. Both winners come from highly accomplished families, selling for $61,000 as a 2-year-old. Cont. p13 but both also have at least one distinctly weak link in their female line. For Henley=s Joy, the Kitten=s Joy colt who landed the Belmont Derby, the weak link is his second dam, the Kris S. mare Killoe. Winless in France, where she was second in handicaps over 1 1/2 miles and 1 7/8 miles, Killoe was sold for only $6,000 as an 11-year-old in 2012 and for $7,000 as a 13-year-old. Although Killoe now has seven foals of racing age, none of them has so far earned black type. However, the fact that Killoe=s price had been as high as $340,000 in January 2008, when she was sold carrying Henley=s Joy=s dam Blue Grass Music, tells us that there are plenty of smart performers to be found under the next two dams, the Grade III winner Seewillo and the Grade I-producer Perfect Concrete Rose | Sarah K Andrew Pigeon.

Pedigree Insights cont.

On the plus side, Concrete Rose=s third dam, Nemea, produced Lover=s Knot, whose wins included the Falmouth S., a Group 2 event which now holds Group 1 status, And the next dam, the Herbager mare Donna Inez, was a tough and talented half-sister to none other than Ferdinand, winner of the 1986 Kentucky Derby and 1987 GI Breeders= Cup Classic. Ferdinand, of course, was by the great , who was closely related to The Minstrel, the sire of Nemea. It comes as no surprise that Concrete Rose has raced exclusively on turf, or that she is shining over 1 1/4 miles. Her American-bred dam Solerina may have gained all three of her wins in sprints on dirt and all-weather, but in truth she has a European turf pedigree geared to success at distances of 1 1/4 miles or more. The explanation is that the lower levels of American racing do not cater very well for fillies such as Solerina which have plenty of stamina in their pedigrees. Solerina=s sire , who is closely related to the great , was first past the post in two editions of the GI Arlington Million. He was unfortunately demoted to fourth after his 2004 success, but there was no questioning his superiority after he put three lengths between himself and Kitten=s Joy in the closing stages of the 2005 race. This much-travelled son of Sadler=s Wells also won the G1 in Ireland and stayed a mile and a half well enough to defeat the future St Leger winner in the G2 Great S. It was a brave step by Coolmore to stand him at Ashford Stud at a time when turf horses were generally unpopular in the U.S. and Powerscourt couldn=t be considered a success, though he did sire the GI Turf Classic winner Finnegans Wake. He also enjoyed Group 1 success in Ireland with his 2-year-old daughter Termagant, who, like Solerina, was out of a line mare. Solerina=s broodmare sire, the Diesis horse Sabrehill, managed only three starts. He didn=t enjoy much luck, although he was beaten by only one horse in those three starts. An impressive debut success was followed by a similarly imposing victory in a listed race, with the second win being taken away by the stewards, even though Sabrehill had won by four lengths. Such was his reputation that he then started favourite for the G1 Juddmonte International S. and he acquitted himself well in finishing second to the top-class Ezzoud. Subsequently found to have strained a tendon, Sabrehill was retired to stud but made little impact. While it is tempting to attribute Concrete Rose=s talent on turf to the bottom half of her pedigree, it mustn=t be forgotten that her sire Twirling Candy was one of several sons of Candy Ride to perform well on America=s fast turf courses.

Pedigree Insights cont. Among the others are such as Ascend (GI Manhattan S.), Grand Tito (GII Mac Diarmida S.), Chocolate Ride (GII Mervin H. Muniz Jr H.) and Ride A Comet (GII Del Mar Derby). Twirling Candy also won the GII Del Mar Derby, in addition to the Oceanside S. He was very versatile, though, when it came to racing surfaces and he progressed to win the GI Malibu S. and GII Strub S. on dirt and the GII Californian S. on Cushion Track. He also failed by only a head to take the Pacific Classic over 1 1/4 miles on Polytrack.

Henley=s Joy | Sarah K Andrew

Twirling Candy belonged to Candy Ride=s second crop, as did the Santa Anita Derby winner Sidney=s Candy, and these two Grade I winners entered stud at fees of $15,000 in 2012, with Twirling Candy standing alongside his sire at Lane=s End, while Sidney=s Candy was based at WinStar. A third Grade I-winning son, Misremembered, also retired to Kentucky, based at Hill >n= Dale. Seven years later Sidney=s Candy is standing in Turkey, while Misremembered has been transferred to California, but Twirling Candy=s career has been progressing very nicely. He wasn=t immune to the ups and downs which affect so many young stallions in their early years. After being popular in his first season, even reductions in his fee weren=t enough to maintain support in his second and third years, which resulted in crops numbering 50 and 59 named foals. Fortunately, his first crop has produced Danzing Candy, winner of the GII San Felipe S. in 2016, as well as Finley=sluckycharm, heroine of the GI Madison S. in 2018, and Gift Box, who edged out McKinzie to take the GI Santa Anita H. earlier this year. His small second crop contained the Grade III winner Morticia and this year=s GIII San Simeon S. winner Law Abidin Citizen. Although his third crop, sired at $10,000, hasn=t been as successful, Concrete Rose heads a fourth crop which also contains the recent Queen=s Plate winner One Bad Boy.

YOSHIDA HAILS >AMAZING= TRADE AT JRHA THE WEEKLY WRAP: By Emma Berry TRIUMPH AND DISASTER HOKKAIDO, Japan--The strength in depth of Japan's domestic owners' base was fully evident as the JRHA Select Sale got underway at Northern Horse Park on Monday. A vast array of buyers pushed the sale to record turnover of -10.73 billion (almost $99 million/,78,939,937/i88,034,596) for 222 yearlings, which set another all-time high when returning an average price of -48.3 million ($445,000/ ,355,593/i396,552). Trade, described as "just amazing" by the sale's leading breeder/vendor Katsumi Yoshida of Northern Farm, was headed by a record-equalling yearling brother to former champion 3-year-old filly Mikki Queen (Jpn) (Deep Impact {Jpn}), who was sold for -360-million ($3.27-million/,2,648,062/i2,953,360).

Rudyard Kipling's observations on life ring true in most Click or tap here to go straight to TDN America. scenarios but in the racing game they invariably hit the nail squarely on the head. Over the weekend we were reminded yet again of the wafer-thin dividing line between triumph and disaster by the fates of the two champion fillies who fought out the finish of last season's G1 Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe, Enable (GB) (Nathaniel {Ire}) and Sea Of Class (Ire) (Sea The Stars {Ire}). A 2019 re-match between the two featured high last December on the Christmas list of most racing fans but sadly it now definitely won't be happening. While Enable, by winning the G1 Coral-Eclipse S. at Sandown, showed on Saturday afternoon that she is at least as good as ever at the age of five, Sea Of Class, it was announced on Sunday, spent the day convalescing after life-saving colic surgery on Wednesday which means that her racing days are definitely over. When a horse has survived the first couple of days after major surgery, one is entitled to hope that he/she is 'out of the woods.' Hopefully, therefore, this will be a disaster which has a happy ending with Sea Of Class able to enjoy a full life as a broodmare for years to come.

As a racehorse, Hallowed Crown blossomed early in his CHANCE TO RULE 3-year-old season. He was unbeaten as a 2-year-old, including a Group 3 victory, but stepped it up with wins in the G3 Run To the Rose and G1 Golden Rose soon after turning three, giving James Cummings his first Group 1 and his grandfather Bart his 268th. He would go on to win a G1 Randwick Guineas and G2 Hobartville S. later in his 3-year-old season before heading off to Darley, where he served 100 mares in his first year at A$33,000 (inc GST). The numbers have declined, as has his service fee, which is at A$11,000 for 2019, as breeders await the progress of his early crops, but Baddock has retained the faith and sees the current pricing as a fantastic opportunity for breeders. "If a stallion's progeny take a bit of time, commercially, they can go off the boil but that's when you can step into them. The Hallowed Crowns are very nice horses. He's well-priced this Hallowed Crown | Darley Australia coming season," he said. "There is no doubt they will be better by Bren O'Brien their latter half of their 2-year-old year into their 3-year-old year Having bred and raced him as a racehorse, and with more of and beyond.

In , the Australian-bred Big Hearted has won both his races, while Allhallowtide (Ire) is Hallowed Crown's winner to date from his first crop, when he shuttled to Kildangan Stud in Ireland for two seasons. The numbers are solid, without being spectacular, however the insight Baddock brings is that the patience of those who have supported the Darley stallion will be rewarded. "We’ve got a lot of Hallowed Crowns coming through, they were always going to take a bit of time," he said.

He's got a high cruising speed, and he's tough and just keeps going. That's the impression I keep getting from him. "Gai trains them tough and they are hard and fit and I can see that's the horse he is going to end up being." Desert War proved a superb horse for Gooree and Waterhouse, winning six Group 1s and Baddock has every faith that Tulloch Lodge is the right place for Rule The World to be to reach his potential. "We've had a lot of luck with Gai over the years. Our horses don’t go through sales, so they might be a bit slow learning, like this fellow, but she taps away at them and she can train them hard and get them to a fitness level not many can," he said. The immediate target is a short spell with a possible campaign towards the G1 Spring Champion S. and G1 Victoria Derby. That's a path Waterhouse and Bott plotted with Thinkin' Big (High Chaparral {Ire}) who emerged through the winter racing last year. Your Song | Gooree Park "There are plenty of races for a horse like him. A race like the Spring Champion S. would suit him into the Victoria Derby. They are the obvious ones.
