INTERNATIONALS KEY TO CAULFIELD CUP ULYSSES AND With a field of 17 declared for Saturday=s A$3-million G1 SIDESTEP CHAMPION Caulfield Cup (2400m), it appears likely that the international raiders are the ones to take note of this year. After a slashing first-up run in Australia when beaten narrowly by Gailo Chop (Fr) (Deportivo {GB}) in the G1 Caulfield S. on Oct. 14, race favourite Johannes Vermeer (Ire) ( {Ire}) is out to give trainer Aidan O=Brien his first success in the staying contest. A Group 1 winner over 1400m as a juvenile in the Saint-Cloud Criterium International, the Ben Melham-ridden Johannes Vermeer has backed up twice within the space of 11 days in the past, winning both times, and with the quick turn-around of seven days being a major concern here, the 5-year-old is a worthy favourite, although many of the other internationals hold appeal. Impressive when capturing the G2 Prix Kergorlay on Aug. 20, Hugh Bowman=s mount Marmelo (GB) ( {Ire}) by all accounts has been working extremely well at Werribee.

With heavy rain a distinct possibility, connections of the G1 English and Irish 2000 Guineas winner Churchill have opted to go back to a mile for the G1 Queen Elizabeth II S. on the card, leaving Anthony Oppenheimer=s Group 1-seeking colt Cracksman (GB) ( {GB}) likely to occupy favouritism on the back of dominant wins in the G2 Great Voltigeur at York on Aug. 23 and G2 Prix Niel at Chantilly on Sept. 10.

He is there to ensure a solid pace for Godolphin=s G1 St James=s Palace S. scorer (GB) (Excelebration {Ire}), who will exit from stall two under regular pilot James Doyle. Last seen finishing third behind Ulysses and Churchill in the Juddmonte International at York on Aug. 23, Barney Roy was reported in fine shape by Doyle.

He=s got such a fantastic turn of foot and is so tough and honest that we felt if he came out of the Arc well then this would be the ideal race. He=s already a dual Classic winner, and we=re hoping he can finish on another high.@ Ulysses and Churchill Sidestep Champion cont. from p1 AIt was a nice leg stretch around there and he feels like he has physically improved a touch for his little break since the Juddmonte. I=m quite excited. He=s gradually getting the hang of ACLAIM TO STAND AT THE NATIONAL STUD it with each run--he=s quite a slow learner, as you saw in the Eclipse when he got a bit lost and hit all the ridges wrong. He=s quite a long-striding horse. In the Eclipse they didn=t go any kind of gallop and I was always gaining on the horses in front of me, so it can prove a little bit tricky. We had to ride him a little more aggressively in the Juddmonte from the draw we had and because of the lack of the pace. I suppose we=ll just hope for a bit of pace and I=ll ride him like I did in the St James=s Palace.@ Trainer Richard Hannon added, ABarney Roy comes into this race fresh and well, having had a nice break since he ran at York. I just hope that we don=t get too much rain, but we are very pleased with Barney Roy=s physical well-being and he looks in great nick. We are looking forward to the race.@

AAgain we won a nomination at the ASSELCO raffle, to Pedro The Great who is a sire we wouldn't necessarily have used,@ said Clavier.

fact that he's managed a clean sweep in perhaps the two races that count most in the European calendar: the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe and the Derby. Remarkably, in the past five years, a TRIPLE THREATS one-two-three in a Group 1 has been achieved on nine separate occasions. By John Boyce It's surely a remarkable feat to sire the first three home in a Group 1 race. But it's been happening relatively frequently in recent years to warrant a closer look: three times in 2016 and on three occasions again in 2017. The latest sire to join this exalted club is Dubawi, who sired the first three home--Bateel, Journey and Left Hand--in the Prix Vermeille this September. Prior to that it was Galileo in the Prince of Wales's S. at Royal Ascot, where Highland Reel defeated subsequent Group 1 winners and Ulysses. Even earlier this year Australian's newest super sire Snitzel got in on the act, emulating the great Sir Tristram by siring Sires' Produce one-two-three Invader, Summer Passage and Trapeze Artist. Galileo's high summer feat has given him a clear advantage in this particular race, which is confined to racing in the Northern Hemisphere and Australasia since 1972. Now on a score of six-- one ahead of his great sire Sadler's Wells--Galileo deserves to be Dubawi is the latest to sire a Group 1 trifecta | Darley top of this group if not for his own tally then certainly for the

With the farm continuing to recognize breeders in 2017, Ben Massam of the TDN sat down with Chairman Goncalo Borges Torrealba to discuss the importance of breeders to both Three Chimneys and the industry as a whole. TDN: Three Chimneys is the presenting sponsor of the >Breeders Edition= trophies at the Breeders= Cup. Why did you decide to recognize breeders this way? GT: I come from Brazil, and in South America, we do not make a distinction between owners and breeders. When any horse wins a graded stakes, there are two exact replicas presented to the owner and breeder.

Three Diamonds Farm=s progressive I=m Betty G (Into Mischief) has a big chance. Off the board in three dirt starts to open her account, the $150,000 Fasig-Tipton Midlantic buy has been in the trifecta in all four starts since moving to turf, finishing second at 23-1 in the Indiana Grand and third at 10-1 last out in the GIII Commonwealth Oaks Sept. 30 at Laurel. Finally, a pair of fillies with no stakes experience also merits looks. Clairborne Farm homebred Chastise (Blame) broke her maiden over this course last October and pulled off a 21-1 shocker Aug. 19 at Saratoga in her only start as a 3-year-old thus far. Don Alberto Stable=s Dolce Lili (Scat Daddy) moved forward steadily in four turf starts this summer at Monmouth and stamped herself as a promising sort with a powerful allowance score there Sept. 10.

GT: There is not one without the other--we are all interlinked. Breeders, owners, trainers and jockeys are all part of a big family that loves horses and horse racing at the end of the day. Obviously, there is no racing without breeding. For me, personally, I love both the racing and breeding aspects. I started as an owner and became a breeder. Since then, I have loved coming to the farm and looking at my broodmares, the weanlings and the yearlings.

TDN: Perhaps the answer to this question is obvious, but why is the Breeders= Cup so important to breeders?

GT: The Kentucky Derby is a great event, but it is basically restricted to 3-year-old colts. The Breeders= Cup caters to all kinds of surfaces, distances, sexes and abilities. It=s the total deal--it=s where Horse of the Year is crowned and it=s where Eclipse Awards are decided.

TDN: Will Take Charge and Strong Mandate are off to a fast start at the yearling sales. Are you pleased with the reception you=ve gotten to this point?

Cont. p5

TDN: On a surface level, some who aren=t as familiar with the game might define success solely as brilliance on the racetrack. Do you think that success can also be defined as a mastery of bloodlines or accomplishments in the breeding shed?
