Only beaten twice in nine career starts, she is the latest bargain buy to consolidate a remarkable revival in the career of her trainer Karl Burke. Suspended for 12 months in 2009--he admitted naivete over new rules, having talked horses with a banned former patron and business associate--Burke was obliged to hand over his licence to his wife Elaine. Since the end of that ban, their historic Spigot Lodge stable in North Yorkshire has produced a Derby runner-up in Libertarian (GB) (New Approach {Ire}), a dual Group 1 winner in Odeliz (Ire) (Falco) and now an outstanding sprinter in Quiet Reflection. All were very cheaply bought--at 40,000gns, i22,000 and ,44,000, respectively--and Burke has been busy at this week trying to unearth the next gem. Nonetheless, he took time out for a chat with TDN earlier this week. cont. p2 TDN EUROPE/INTERNATIONAL • PAGE 2 OF 11 • THETDN.COM FRIDAY • 14 OCTOBER, 2016

WITH KARL BURKE TDN: How do you juggle your different tasks at this time of year, being so busy here at the sales even while preparing a Group 1 favourite for the weekend?

KB: Yes, it's a hectic time. I'm here at the sales now but we're driving back tonight to see Quiet Reflection work and then we'll be heading back in the morning. But for me this is the most important part of the job--so much so that it can get a bit frustrating when the phone doesn't stop ringing. I like to be totally focused here, I can get a bit blinkered. Obviously there are still horses at home with owners who need to know what's going on. But what I'm doing here is so very important. Because it doesn't matter how good a trainer you are, if you don't buy the right horses you're not going to have winners.

TDN: Well, you've obviously been buying the right horses, judging from this series of horses so outperforming their price tags. Would you say that upgrading the value of such horses has become the brand for your career rebuild?

KB: I'd always bought cheapish horses but always tried to sell most of them on. Over the last four or five years luckily we've been in financial position to keep a leg here, a half there, and it's worked out when we've sold them on. If anything, we've almost become a victim of our own success. Now a lot of owners are wanting us to keep a stake--and obviously that can soon add up to an awful lot. We've always got to keep trading some in. We bought a filly here last year for seven-grand and kept a half. She won first time out, and we got Quiet Reflection training on the a really good deal from Middleham gallops | racingfotos.com America. But that all goes straight back in: filling the holes left by the ones that don't make it, while hopefully leaving a little left over to re-invest in the structure of the business. Everything we've been able to do is on the back of the sale of horses. Just this year, another barn has gone up and we've also spent a quarter-million pounds converting some lads' accommodation. So yes, it's all a big investment. But we've a great lifestyle, we live well without having loads of money in the bank, and hopefully one day--when we wind down--we'll be able to reap the rewards.

But there’s change in the air in France this year, and with the rebuilding of its ancestral home, the action shifts to Chantilly. We’ll take you through the town’s fabled training grounds, and recommend our favorite Paris neighborhood retreat. Elsewhere in Europe, we visit with a Newmarket clas- sic: 83-year-old owner Bill Gredley—the businessman behind Unex—who has his eye on this year’s Melbourne Cup with his Big Orange. Stateside, uberchef Bobby Flay gives us his rec- ommendations on dinner reservations if you’re headed to the Breeders’ Cup next month, and there are great things hap- pening in Maryland racing, both at Laurel and at Sagamore Farm. And finally, France-Galop’s new chief Olivier Delloye spills the beans on his favorite things about France…and just how much Pavlova it’s advisable to eat.

Clay's family owned Three Chimneys for decades before selling the majority of it to Goncalo Borges Torrealba in 2013. When it comes to the Keeneland November Sale, there is no doubt that Three Chimneys has certainly had its share of success both before and after the farm changed hands. In 2004, the farm offered a multiple Grade I-winning mare, who as unlikely as it sounds, turned out to be a bargain when she was hammered down for $4.2 million. That mare, Take Take Charge Brandi | Keeneland photo Charge Lady, won more than $2.4 Keeneland November sale.

"You can sell a high-priced one and maybe they don't produce, but to be attached to her is special. She has gone on to do such great things, and having Will Take Charge on the farm as a young stallion now is wonderful."
