GOOD MAGIC RETURNS IN JOHN BRUNETTI, SR., HIALEAH OWNER, PASSES by T. D. Thornton FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH John J. Brunetti Sr., the colorful and sometime controversial owner of Hialeah Park and three Florida-based Thoroughbred racing and breeding farms, died peacefully at his Boca Raton home on March 2. Brunetti, 87, had been in tenuous health since undergoing the removal of a cancerous lung last year. The Bronx-born son of an Italian immigrant who instilled a tenacious work ethic in his children as they grew up in New Jersey, the younger Brunetti=s first exposure to horse racing was a visit to South Florida tracks, including Hialeah, with college buddies in the early 1950s. Brunetti first got involved in the sport by splitting shares in a racehorse with his father a few years later, and in 1977, the younger Brunetti secured a longshot deal to buy Hialeah, outbidding a number of better-connected Thoroughbred insiders to do so.

AThe year is filled with promise,@ trainer Chad Brown told the Gulfstream notes team. AThe horse, knock on wood, is very healthy. His battery is recharged. He=s a fresh horse. We=re excited to get his 3-year-old year kicked off and hopefully one filled with success and no interruptions.@ Last term=s GI Breeders= Futurity S. hero Free Drop Billy (Union Rags) could only manage ninth behind Good Magic in the Juvenile, but had never finished worse than second in his four starts prior to that. The chestnut flashed that previous form in his sophomore bow Feb. 3 in the GII Holy Bull S., checking in second behind an eye-catching performance from Audible (Into Mischief).

Romping by 7 3/4 lengths at second asking going a mile at Aqueduct Nov. 16, the $675,000 KEESEP buy proved that effort was no fluke with a 5 1/2-length optional claimer score over this track and trip Jan. 4 (video). AShe shipped down here and I thought she ran fine against winners and she=s trained well here,@ McGaughey told the Gulfstream notes team. AShe=s a great big filly and I=ll be anxious to get her around two turns.

A three-time stakes winner and Grade III-placed as a juvenile, the dark bay was privately purchased and transferred from Kelly Breen to Kiaran McLaughlin for her sophomore campaign. She proved a worthy investment for her new connections with a decisive victory in this venue=s GIII Forward Gal S. Feb. 3. Also exiting the Forward Gal are Sultry (Malibu Moon) (second), Heavenhasmynikki (Majestic Warrior) (fourth) and Miss Mo Mentum (Uncle Mo) (sixth).

Sacco added that Brunetti had been downsizing the operation over the past few years after peaking at around 200 horses in an attempt to focus on quality over quantity.

By Emma Berry Following an initiative started by incoming Chief Executive Nick Rust three years ago, the fourth annual British Horseracing Authority Industry Roadshow toured the country this week, finishing its run in Newmarket on Thursday. While led by the BHA, the forum is very much a collaborative effort between the sport's governing body and its tripartite partners in the Racecourse Association (RCA) and the Horsemen's Group. Thursday's panel included Charlie Liverton of the Racehorse Owners Association, the RCA's Stephen Atkin, and Great British Racing Chief Executive Rod Street. "It's only nine weeks to the Guineas," said Rust with a wry smile as he took to the stage and looked out across the Black Caviar, a graduate of the Inglis Premier sale | Getty snow-covered Rowley Mile.

The staffing issue is not the solitary concern for horsemen surrounding Brexit and Rust outlined the approach being undertaken by the BHA and a task force headed by Thoroughbred Breeders' Association Chairman Julian Richmond-Watson in raising key issues with government, such as the movement of horses within Europe post-Brexit. BHA Takes To The Road For Industry Update cont. from p1 "This is a key topic for our sport over the next year," Rust said. In 2018, there will be 1,508 race meetings in Britain--11 more "Come March 2019 we could be facing a situation where than last year and up from 1,464 in 2013. everything we've come to know when it comes to breeding Rust said, "I would argue strongly that racing is on the up. We racehorses, moving racehorses, campaigning racehorses are seeing some of the indicators in our sport improving. We internationally, will be challenged. The Tripartite Agreement have increasing revenue coming from betting, partly because we between the UK, Ireland and France has been in place for more closed the levy loophole through a great team effort, and partly than 40 years and allows for free movement of horses between because betting on horseracing is beating the international those countries under high-welfare status. If we do not sort out trends and growing, based on the last two years of information the arrangements under Brexit, we could be looking at border from the Gambling Commission. The growth is small but it is controls and quarantines between the UK and Europe. Hopefully recognition of how important betting on British racing is to that's an exaggerated outcome that I sincerely hope won't people and that will help to drive our revenues over the next happen but our sport is working together now to ensure that we few years." work closely with the government to get the right outcome." Rust continued, "That has led to record prize-money being In acknowledging the urgent need to encourage more people projected for this year. We expect that prize-money in Britain to work in racing, Rust outlined that at least an extra ,1-million will be ,160-million this year.

More people left frontline jobs looking after our horses last year than joined, even though we had a record number of joiners. Retention is an industry-wide effort and we need to assist employers in retaining their staff.@

I WOULD ARGUE STRONGLY THAT RACING IS ON THE UP. WE ARE SEEING SOME OF THE INDICATORS IN OUR SPORT IMPROVING. Nick Rust

BHA Takes To The Road For Industry Update cont. The Thoroughbred racehorse population has indeed increased, with the number of horses currently registered in training being approximately 14,500--the first time since 2011 that the country has had in excess of 14,000 horses. It is in this area, too, where the words recruitment and retention keep appearing. Rust said, "We need to reinvigorate ownership, not just by retaining existing owners but also by bringing new owners into our sport. We set a target here three years ago of 1,000 extra horses in training and we have about an extra 700, but they are Vice President, International Operations pretty much in at the top level of the sport concentrated around Gary King the leading owners.

During that final year of study, I was an marketing point of view, is to be as innovative and creative as intern at Primus Marketing and Advertising.
