WHY DALLAS STEWART RAGING BULL KICKS OFF 4YO CAMPAIGN IN MAKER=S MILE By Christie DeBernardis CARES ABOUT WINS, NOT The Chad Brown-trained Raging Bull (Fr) (Dark Angel {Ire}) proved a force to be reckoned with in the sophomore male turf WINNING PERCENTAGE division last year and he hopes to do the same Friday as he kicks off his 2019 campaign in Keeneland=s GI Maker=s 46 Mile S.

Click or GIII Stonestreet Lexington S., who, on paper, looks like he can't tap here to go straight to TDN Europe. possibly win. That's on paper. On the racetrack, there is apparently no such thing as a Dallas Stewart-trained horse that has no chance. That was proven once again last week in the GI Central Bank Ashland S. at Keeneland, which Stewart won with 52-1 shot Out for a Spin (Hard Spun). She didn't appear to have the class or the numbers to compete with horses like Eclipse Award winner Jaywalk (Cross Traffic) or GI Alcibiades S. winner Restless Rider (Distorted Humor). Stewart was aware of that. But he also knows when a horse is doing well and isn't afraid to take a shot. He's not a one-trick pony, as he has won several major stakes races with horses who went off at low odds, but, at the same time, he has established a reputation as the sport's most dangerous trainer when it comes to longshots outperforming expectations. AI just felt good about her,@ he said. AShe came out of New Orleans doing real well. The Ashland is a horse race that can get you to the biggest horse race for that gender and age group, which is the [GI] Kentucky Oaks four weeks later. You know what, it's was a risk worth taking.@ Cont. p3 PUBLISHER & CEO Sue Morris Finley @suefinley [email protected]

Dallas Stewart cont. from p1 In the end, he was right. But very few major trainers would have dared to run Out for a Spin in a spot like the Ashland. Starting 50-1 shots is usually a recipe for defeat and every loss lowers your winning percentage. A lot of owners don't want to hire people winning at 8%, which is Stewart's percentage on the year, and trainers know that. That's why they rarely take chances. AI've never been great at numbers and I've never really cared about numbers,@ said Stewart, who is winning at a 14% rate for his career. AI just don't think about it that much. I think about today. I live for today and if it's a decision I make today, I'll just go with it and see what happens. I think sometimes the numbers will keep you from accomplishing things. Maybe they'll keep you in business, but maybe they won't get you a Grade I when you think, in your gut, you could have gotten one. As far as the percentage thing goes, I'm not going to live by that. I'll never tell myself I'm not a successful horse trainer because I'm not 20% or 25%.@

Stewart with Commanding Curve | Christie DeBernardis

Stewart's reputation took root in the 2006 GI Kentucky Oaks, which he won with Lemons Forever (Lemon Drop Kid), who was 47-1. AThe way that worked out was pretty good,@ he said. AI owned a piece of her and we sold her for a lot of money, and that made it even better.@ Lemons Forever was sold for $2.5 million at the 2007 Keeneland November Sale. Stewart has yet to win a Triple Crown race, but his wizardry at getting horses to over achieve in them is well known. He finished second in the 2013 GI Kentucky Derby with 34-1 shot Golden Soul (Perfect Soul {Ire}) and pulled the same trick the next year with Commanding Curve (Master Command), who was second at 37-1.

ANODIN MAKES MARK AT OSARUS PHOENIX DIVIDENDS The second crop of France=s leading first-season sire of 2018, BOOST QUINN Anodin (Ire) (Anabaa), were highly sought after at Osarus=s La Teste breeze-up sale on Thursday. The Haras du Quesnay resident was responsible not only for the top-priced lot, a filly that fetched i90,000 from trainer Christophe Ferland, but three of the top 10. The clearance rate, while not sparkling, was up slightly from last year at 62%. With similar numbers offered and the exact same (46) sold, the average dipped 9% to i22,537, while the median climbed 7% to i15,000. The sale-topping filly (lot 42) was consigned by Paul Basquin=s Haras du Saubouas and is out of Ciao My Love (Fr) (Touch Down {Ger}), making her a half-sister to the G2 Prix Daniel Wildenstein second Hello My Love (Fr) (Literato {Fr}). It is the extended family of G1 Deutsches Derby winner Lagunas.

Many owners, agents and managers appear to be under the impression that when you leave Newmarket Heath, you fall off the end of the world. Perhaps they are members of the Flat Earth Society. How gratifying, then, that John Quinn's latest diamond sifted from the rubbleCa G2 Queen Mary S. winner found in Book III for just 20,000gnsCshould for once have prompted a vote not just of thanks, but of confidence. Phoenix Thoroughbreds, who bought into Signora Cabello (Ire) (Camacho {GB}) just before her Royal Ascot success last summer, not only went to 900,000gns to buy out their partners back at Tattersalls last autumn (returning her to Malton until she joins their expanding broodmare band). They also took the logical next step. If this is what Quinn could do in the basement of the market, why not try his skills a level or two higher? After 25 years with a licence Quinn remains perfectly aware that a handful of yearlings, however well bred, is still only a handfulCand hardly likely to transform his brand overnight.

Phoenix Dividends Boost Quinn Cont. from p1 Nonetheless it is a boost to the whole yard to receive one or two youngsters of different calibre. A Frankel (GB) filly out of GI Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Turf and G1 Irish Oaks runner-up L'Ancresse (Ire) (Darshaan {GB}), for instance, purchased for i480,000 at Deauville straight after Signora Cabello had pulled four lengths clear of the colts when a close second to Pretty Pollyanna (GB) (Oasis Dream {GB}) in the G1 Prix Morny. "She's a beauty," says Quinn. "If there's ever one that came our way that might be a good 3-year-old, that could be her." Then there was a i135,000 Kodiac (GB) colt from the same sale, out of a half-sister to the dam of champion Wootton Bassett (GB) (Iffraaj {GB}). At Doncaster, moreover, Dermot Farrington told Quinn and his son Sean, who sieves the catalogues, to let him know if there was anything they particularly liked. And there was: an Exceed And Excel (Aus) filly. Sure enough, Farrington signed the docket at ,70,000. From the same Goffs UK catalogue, Phoenix sent up a ,125,000 colt by Signora Cabello's sire. And just the other day Farrington offered him a 180,000gns Gutaifan (Ire) filly out of the mare whose first cover, by Gutaifan's sire Dark Angel (Ire), had produced the lightning Battaash (Ire). "I said I'd try and find a box for her," Quinn says wryly. "To be fair, the filly winning at Ascot was fantastic for all of us. Because as a trainer you need something to happen, you always need that next horse to come along. I couldn't say she'd win the Queen Mary, because there were 22 runners and all beauties. But I told them I felt she was a very decent filly." He is immensely grateful that Phoenix have followed through, while acknowledging that it's just one encouraging turn of the wheel in a career of long attrition. Cont. p3
