NO ILLUSION ABOUT MAXIMUM SECURITY TO SKIP TRAVERS, POINT TO PENNSYLVANIA DERBY BREAKOUT SUMMER Dual Grade I winner and leading 3-year-old Maximum Security (New Year’s Day) will skip the GI Runhappy Travers S. Aug. 24 at FOR TWIRLING CANDY Saratoga and point to the GI Pennsylvania Derby Sept. 21 at Parx, trainer Jason Servis said Thursday. Servis said the decision was made because the colt “still is not 100%.” “I don’t like where he’s at. He’s not eating the way I want him to eat and he’s not carrying the weight I’d like to see him carry,” Servis said. “I just want to make sure he’s 100% for his next race and he’s not there right now. The best thing is to wait until he is 100% and point to the Pennsylvania Derby.” Owned by breeders Gary and Mary West, Maximum Security debuted for a $16,000 tag and scored by daylight to start a four-race winning streak that culminated in a conquest of the GI Xpressbet Florida Derby.

And nor will those entertaining a stud career feel any more comfortable about matching the achievements of the two protagonists since. We all know that most young stallions won't ever again command a fee as high as their opening one. But Candy Ride (Arg) and Medaglia d'Oro have multiplied theirs by a factor of seven and eight respectively. Lest we forget, the same man deserves credit for putting them both on the road. How it must grieve John Sikura that each, for various reasons, was soon transferred from Hill 'n' Dale. Happily, we can rely on Sikura to keep introducing feasible successors to a roster that always reflects his own verve. But how curious it seems, looking back, that Medaglia d'Oro was able to start out at $35,000 when the horse who ran away from him at Del Mar, almost laughing out loud as he cocked his head towards the grandstand, had to earn his stripes at $10,000. To admirers of Candy Ride, the fact that he still musters less than half his vanquished rival's fee--their services nowadays for hire, at Lane's End and Darley’s Jonabell respectively, for $80,000 and $200,000--remains no less incongruous.

Twirling Candy’s Breakout Summer cont. from p1 The original disparity doubtlessly reflected the fact that Candy Ride not only failed to race again, after just six career starts divided between his native Argentina and California, but also teased things out for a full year before being retired. In the meantime, Medaglia d'Oro was able to give Pleasantly Perfect (Pleasant Colony) rather more of a race in both the GI Breeders' Cup Classic and G1 Dubai World Cup, while also adding the GI Donn H. Yes, Candy Ride's pedigree had Argentinian elements too exotic for the taste of many commercial breeders. But then Medaglia d'Oro, though big and beautiful, was by a turf stallion and his first three dams were by Bailjumper, Silent Screen and Restless Wind. Both rivals landed running, anyhow, with four Grade I winners apiece in their first crops. And neither has ever looked back.

Twirling Candy | Lane’s End

Now that they are in their 20th year, however, the question is whether their estate papers are in order, in terms of an heir. Medaglia d'Oro obviously has something of a reputation as a sire of exceptional females, but Sikura himself is standing one of his most plausible sons in Violence. Others contesting the eventual succession include Astern, Bolt d'Oro, Mshawish, Talismanic and Vancouver (Aus). And Candy Ride? Well, though castration ruled out his early flagbearer Shared Belief even before tragedy, he too has a number of young sons now making their way at stud, notably a Horse of the Year in Gun Runner and the exciting Mastery. And two of them, Unified and Twirling Candy, are standing alongside him at Lane's End. While Unified must also compete with the farm's many other young stallions, this summer there has been no getting away from the sense that all sons of Candy Ride will have to go hard to catch Twirling Candy. Cont. p4 TDN HEADLINE NEWS • PAGE 4 OF 12 • THETDN.COM FRIDAY • AUGUST 16, 2019

In fact, shares in a stallion who was standing at $10,000 not so long ago are now understood to be trading at around $300,000. And Twirling Candy has been on a particularly spectacular roll since the start of August, in the process edging past Uncle Mo in the fifth-crop sires' table for 2019 by both prize money and black-type winners. First, his daughter Concrete Rose followed up her GI Belmont Oaks success with a win in the second leg of NYRA's inaugural Turf Tiara, the Saratoga Oaks Invitational. That was her sixth win in seven starts and she appears to be the leading turf sophomore of her sex. Then, last Saturday, Collusion Illusion emerged among the top juveniles on the West Coast by winning the GII Best Pal S. at Del Mar. The next day, moreover, Law Abidin Citizen won the GIII Longacres Mile at Emerald Downs-completing an outstanding weekend for Mark Glatt, who trains both horses.

Collusion Illusion | Benoit And Twirling Candy promptly kept up his momentum at Fasig-Tipton's New York Sale, where a $320,000 filly made the fourth highest price of the auction. In all, his eight yearlings into the ring yielded six sales at an average $160,000, eight times their 2017 cover fee of $20,000. The chance to get him at $10,000 had come in 2014, after an opening book of 118 had made the familiar drop, to 72. Breeders took that carrot, in that tricky third season, with a solid 85 mares. But the first clue to what has happened since was a bumper 154 the following year, after a very strong sales debut (notably with his first 2-year-olds). Twenty-five juvenile winners (from 45 starters) in his freshman crop quickly enabled Lane's End to restore his fee to $15,000 for 2016, when he entertained 159 partners; and then to add consecutive $5,000 increments as Twirling Candy (who maintained books of 152 and 141 in 2017 and 2018 respectively) continued to reward breeders both in the ring and on the track.

Two Grade I winners eventually emerged from his first crop, in Finley'sluckycharm (2018 Madison S.) and Gift Box (Santa Anita H. in April), though first to put him on the map had been the MGSW Danzing Candy. In the meantime, the improvement in both the quality and quantity of his mares is starting to tell. Other notable achievements this year, for instance, include a Queen's Plate for One Bad Boy; while Tremont S. winner Fore Left joined Collusion Illusion on the podium when third in the Best Pal. One unsurprising virtue becoming apparent in Twirling Candy's stock is his versatility. Candy Ride himself first made his name on turf, in his homeland, and also deployed that wonderful stride to win on the same surface in California. And Twirling Candy won the GII Del Mar Derby on grass, before breaking the track record in no less a dirt race than the GI Malibu S.; and then reverting to synthetic to win the GII Californian S. and share a photo-finish for two Grade Is over 10 furlongs--a record that also shows him to be no less flexible in terms of distance. Sure enough, Twirling Candy's first elite winners duly turned out to be a sprinter (Finley'sluckycharm) and a two-turn toughie (Gift Box). And his stock are building an equally diverse profile in terms of racing surface, just as you would expect from his pedigree. There's plenty of chlorophyll behind Candy Ride, not least through some interesting French roots. (In fact, you would think that many more European breeders need to get aboard with him while they can.) And Twirling Candy is out of a mare by Toussaud's lamented Arlington Million winner Chester House (Mr. Prospector). But he balances that with some iconic dirt influences. Besides having Mr. P top and bottom, through Fappiano and Chester House, and a grand-dam by a sire without frontiers in Danzig, the next dam is by Seattle Slew out of an Alydar half-sister to Affirmed. Quite a trophy for Alydar, that: to be mated with his old rival's dam. And Twirling Candy, for his part, now finds himself batting on the same team as First Dude, who once thwarted him by a nose and a neck in a memorable three-cornered shoot-out with Game On Dude (Awesome Again) for the GI Hollywood Gold Cup. That's because Collusion Illusion is out of a daughter of First Dude. Remarkably, in fact, he represents First Dude's very first recorded toe in the water as a broodmare sire. Bred by Donald R. Dizney, who stands First Dude at Double Diamond Farm in Florida, Collusion Illusion was picked out deep in the Keeneland September Sale for $50,000 by Don't Tell My Wife Stables. Glatt then gave $300,000 for the colt after he went :10 flat for Mayberry Farm at OBS April. Cont. p6 TDN HEADLINE NEWS • PAGE 6 OF 12 • THETDN.COM FRIDAY • AUGUST 16, 2019

Sadly, Collusion Illusion is the only foal of his dam, who died last year. She was unraced, and likewise her mother Midway Squall (Storm Bird), who, nonetheless, otherwise proved an extremely fertile source of good runners. Of her 13 winners, the fastest pair both won graded stakes and finished second in an elite dash: Bahamian Squall (Gone West) in the GI Alfred G. Vanderbilt S. and Apriority (Grand Slam) in the GI Carter H. Their stakes-winning half-sister by Carson City, meanwhile, is the dam of another Grade I near-miss in Hollywood Starlet S. runner-up Big Tiz (Tiznow), who was trained by Glatt and presumably caught his eye down the catalog page.

Twirling Candy | Lane’s End

The next dam was by the 17.3hh Calumet monster Best Turn, who also features in the pedigree of First Dude. Further back, this family is rooted in the breed-shaping stud of the 17th Earl of Derby, in fact tracing to one of the very first fillies he sent to George Lambton. Collusion Illusion certainly seems to have inherited the guts shown by sire and damsire in their Hollywood slugfest. He responded uncomplainingly to a very severe ride last weekend and could do better yet for a seventh furlong, should he proceed to the GI Del Mar Futurity S. on the closing day of the meet. He may need to do so, however, if he is to beat the Best Pal runner-up again. Mike Smith wisely let Wrecking Crew (Sky Kingdom) find his way into the race after being left at the gate, but then had to go wide and the colt did well to grab second. An $875,000 pinhook triumph for Wavertree at Fasig-Tipton's Gulfstream Sale in March--he had cost Owls Bloodstock $115,000 at the same firm's July Yearling Sale--Wrecking Crew looks as though he could pay his way for the Roy H (More Than Ready) team of Peter Miller, Rockingham Ranch and David A. Bernsen. Cont. p7 TDN HEADLINE NEWS • PAGE 7 OF 12 • THETDN.COM FRIDAY • AUGUST 16, 2019

But whatever his future holds, Collusion Illusion has contributed to a real spree for his sire. Twirling Candy failed by just a head to emulate Candy Ride in the Pacific Classic, which likewise proved to be his swansong. In other respects, however, he is very much falling in step with his sire, except, at least for the time being, in the critical respect of their fees. He typically gets you a bigger, scopier horse, but otherwise the branding is looking very familiar: great balance to his pedigree, yielding exceptional versatility in surface and discipline. You have to love a horse that could run so well in a Pacific Classic, on synthetic, after coasting through Malibu S. splits of :22.72, :44.69 and 1:07.58 to beat a track record set by Spectacular Bid. These are exciting times at Lane's End, where William S. Farish and his team have numerous new reputations to make. But a roster is all about balance, and between the young guns and veterans like Candy Ride, Lemon Drop Kid and Mineshaft, they need a fulcrum of proven class from those entering their pomp. That's what they have with Quality Road, and Union Rags, and now Twirling Candy is giving himself every chance of breaking into the same tier.

Maximum Security out of Travers cont. from p1 Infamously disqualified from the win in the GI Kentucky Derby, the bay was runner-up in the Pegasus S. June 16 at Monmouth before capturing the GI TVG.com Haskell Invitational last out July 20. Thursday’s news came on the heels of Gary and Mary West’s fellow contender and champion Game Winner (Candy Ride {Arg}) also declaring from the Travers. “With Game Winner out, if Maximum Security was 100%, I’d go to the Travers,” Servis said. “But he’s just not back to where he was. I’ll probably give him a week off and that still gives me more than four weeks until the Pennsylvania Derby. I’m fortunate to have patient owners in the Wests who will allow me to take a step back if I don’t feel the horse is 100%. It’s easy to run. But if I ran him when he wasn’t 100%, you come out of the race saying to yourself, ‘What was I thinking?’”

GAME WINNER OUT OF TRAVERS Champion and multiple Grade I winner Game Winner (Candy Ride {Arg}) has come down with a virus and will miss a scheduled start in the GI Runhappy Travers S. Aug. 24, according to trainer Bob Baffert. “We're still absorbing the disappointment,” said Baffert. "He's going to be fine, but it’s the timing.” Game Winner posted a six-furlong breeze in 1:12 flat Tuesday at Del Mar, but Baffert said the Gary and Mary West colorbearer was not being his usual self Thursday morning. “He worked great, but [Thursday] he had a little temperature,” said Baffert. “There’s been a little virus going through the barn. He was my second one this week. I hope it stays away from the others.” Game Winner, who rode a trio of Grade I victories, including a score in the GI Breeders’ Cup Juvenile, to champion 2-year-old male honors at the Eclipse Awards, was winless in his first three starts as a sophomore before dominating the GIII Los Alamitos Derby last out July 13. Baffert said it was uncertain where the colt would run next. “It's too bad because he couldn't be doing better right now,” the Hall of Fame trainer commented. “I haven't thought about anything now.”

MONOMOY GIRL HAS FIRST WORK BACK, MAY START WITHIN SIX WEEKS by Bill Finley Though the workout was not officially recorded, champion Monomoy Girl (Tapizar) had her first breeze since suffering a case of colic in the spring Saturday at Churchill Downs. Trainer Brad Cox said he did not know why the clockers did not record the workout, but he had her going three furlongs in :36 3/5, while galloping out a half-mile in :49 3/5. The workout, Cox said, was not just to prepare her for the remainder of the 2019 campaign, but also for 2020. He said the ownership group has made a firm decision to race Monomoy Girl next year as a 5 year-old. “She breezed really well,” he said. “She went nice and easy and was in hand. It was just what we wanted to see. She came out of it great, and that’s the main thing. We’ll breeze her again Saturday.” Ultimately, Cox would like to have last year’s Eclipse-winning 3-year-old filly ready to defend her title in the GI Breeders’ Cup Distaff, but realizes he is on a tight schedule to make the race.

“Right now, it’s a week at a time and we still have a ways to have to win that race. What comeback race we pick out for her go,” he said. “We haven’t set our sights on or targeted any races and how she performs will tell us whether we take the next step just yet. She’s been putting a lot into her gallops in the morning toward the Breeders’ Cup. That would be a big ask to have her and she’s back to being her old, aggressive self.

It will be up to point for a race a little later on in the calender, perhaps over how she is performing and how she is doing. She will let us Thanksgiving weekend. know.” “They don’t all have to be Grade I’s,” he said. “I don’t expect to start her back in a Grade I. It just depends on when she is ready and what is out there on the calendar.” One factor that may play in their decision-making process is that it appears it will be very difficult for Monomoy Girl to snatch an Eclipse Award away from Midnight Bisou (Midnight Lute). In Monomoy Girl’s absence, her rival has gone five for five on the year with two Grade I wins. The two faced off four times last year, with Monomoy Girl finishing ahead of her rival all three times. However, Midnight Bisou was placed first in the GI Cotillion S. when the Parx stewards determined she had been fouled by Monomoy Girl. “Those two fillies had a great rivalry last year and I hope we can meet up again this year,” Cox said. “That’s obviously down the road and we don’t know what will happen. The bottom line is it’s a feather in our filly’s cap that she competed against such Monomoy Girl | Breeders’ Cup/Eclipse Sportswire a great filly last year who has gone on to have such an Monomoy Girl was expected to make her 2019 debut in the outstanding 4 year-old season.” May 3 GI La Troienne S. at Churchill Downs, but was removed As for plans to bring Monmomoy Girl back next year, Cox said from consideration for that race due to a bout with colic. the ownership group simply likes to see their horses run.

“Even people who have been working at the racetrack for years are changed by the program,” said McClellan. “One groom said to me, ‘All I was ever told was to just keep my elbow up to keep the horse off of me.

For instance, during the heatwave, he focused on how to help a horse avoid or deal with heat exhaustion. “When a situation with a horse doesn't go well, I teach that the horse isn't doing this to you,” said McClellan. “The horse is looking for you to be a good leader. Once people realize that and accept it, they can move forward quickly improve their skills.” While fewer tracks are employing The Elite Program at this time, its application in aftercare programs is on the rise. “I am looking forward to expanding into more aftercare and therapeutic situations,” said McClellan. “Good handling really helps more thoroughbreds get placed in good homes and stay safe throughout their lives. The added benefit is that is helps so many people along the way.” For more information, contact Reid McClellan at [email protected], or groomelite.com.

SHALAA STANDS UP HEADMAN TAKES THE GUILLAUME D=ORNANO TO NEXT TEST In what amounted to an entirely unsuitable sprint of less than three furlongs, Khalid Abdullah=s Headman (GB) (Kingman {GB}) managed to pull out what was required to gain a last-gasp success in Thursday=s G2 Prix Guillaume d=Ornano Haras du Logis Saint-Germain at Deauville. Slowly building into the latest in a lengthy line of top-class performers in the pink-white-and-green, the homebred had demonstrated his considerable talent in the G2 Prix Eugene Adam over this 10-furlong trip at Saint-Cloud last time June 30 and started at 3-5 as a result. Anchored last of the quintet after an awkward break by Jason Watson, the imposing homebred was keen and unsettled out of rhythm as the field crawled to the final bend.

His fee, from i10,000 in 2003 and for his first four years at stud to i120,000 for the past four years, indeed backs that up. In Australia, Invincible Spirit can rely on his son I Am Invincible (Aus) to keep his name in lights, whereas in Europe, Kingman (GB) and Cable Bay (Ire) are both making important early strides in their stud careers, and plenty will be expected of Al Shaqab's dual Group 1 winner Shalaa (Ire) when he makes his yearling sales debut at Arqana in the coming week. The champion 2-year-old colt in France in 2015 has already passed one test with aplomb: Shalaa's 11 first-crop foals sold last year at the Tattersalls December Sale set an average of 97,545gns to make him the leading freshman sire there and it was a similar tale at Arqana's December Sale, where five sold for an average of i50,200.

For the Al Shaqab team, their own Shalaa yearlings will not be tested until they go into training. "We have very good stock by him at the farm and we are keeping all our yearlings by Shalaa," says Jeffroy. "We'll send them to different trainers--Fabre, Rouget and then in England, Hannon and Fahey.

"In his first season he was really very busy and we had to select the mares," Jeffroy recalls. "Some people wanted three or four nominations, and we almost had to give one per breeder just to please everybody. Then in the second season he was a bit slower. At the price people were probably just thinking, 'let's see what the foals are like', so we supported him a lot in the second season and he covered as many mares. Then the foals started to please in the spring and people came back again, and after the sales last year he was full by the end of December.

Taylor Made=s Duncan Taylor arrived in Deauville on Wednesday ahead of the debut yearling consignment of Gouffern Taylor Made Sales at Arqana August this weekend, where they will offer four colts by Giant=s Causeway, Gutaifan (Ire), The Gurkha (Ire) and Iffraaj (GB). TDN Publisher Sue Finley caught up with him on Thursday.

SF: What has your experience in Deauville been like thus far?

DT: It's been fantastic. I arrived yesterday and went to a Catholic Mass in French, which was a new thing for me. But we basically arrived this morning at the barn. The horses look good. We've had about 10 showings this morning and had a great dinner last night. So it's been fantastic.

Duncan Taylor at Arqana | Diana Pikulski

SF: Other than the mass and the restaurants, what have you enjoyed about the town?

DT: I came last year too, and you wake up in the morning and you see the beach and the horses going along the beach. That's a beautiful thing to wake up to and you couldn't ask for anything more. The weather, everybody says it's cold, but it's about 63 degrees today and sunny, which is the perfect day for me.

SF: What are some of the differences between selling horses in France vs. America?

DT: There was a yearling we were looking at this morning and they were saying, >That's a really big yearling,= and I was thinking, at Keeneland that'd be an average-size yearling, because I think we breed more for leg and height. Over here, the horses are lower to the ground but they're very good movers. Cont. p6 TDN EUROPE • PAGE 6 OF 19 • THETDN.COM FRIDAY • 16 AUGUST 2019

Duncan Taylor Deauville Q & A cont. I was surprised because I always had a picture of Galileo, for instance, in my mind and thinking that they were slighter horses. Some of the grandsons of Galileo that I=ve seen in the yard, it seems like they have a lot of muscle and they're really sturdy built horses.

SF: Three of the horses in your consignment are pinhooks bought at the European foal sales. What sort of horse do you think would do well being pinhooked here?

DT: I think a Speightstown that was a good walker with his kind of build; I think Kitten's Joy would have been awesome this year. I really tried to get a Kitten's Joy over here and just couldn't get anybody to do it. With Roaring Lion being Horse of the Year and Kitten's Joy being such an awesome grass sire, you would think one of those would fit well over here. So I think a horse with a big walk with some kind of European breeding. Next year we're thinking about maybe pinhooking a few more and involving clients that would like to come over and experience Deauville. They could have a part of a horse and come over here. They wouldn't have too much invested, but they could have a good time, experience France and [Jean-Pierre de Gaste of Gouffern] is a great host.

So that was some of the Something I noticed in the [Arqana May Breeze-Up Sale], too, thinking when we started Gouffern Taylor Made Sales. was that there was a Palace Malice [sold for i180,000] and a couple of American sires that I didn't think would necessarily be the exact horse for Europe. American-sired horses are very well received in the breeze-up sale. It's an international market. I think it helps if you have the right breeding, but if you have the horse they like, people throw the pedigree out the window and say, >that's an athlete. I want that one.=
