  • Without Parole Bolsters Gunthers' Stallion Record
    SATURDAY, 16 JANUARY 2021 DALAKHANI DIES AT 21 WITHOUT PAROLE The Aga Khan's Dalakhani (Ire) (Darshaan {GB}), the champion BOLSTERS GUNTHERS’ 3-year-old and Horse of the Year in 2003, died on Friday in retirement at Haras d'Ouilly at the age of 21. STALLION RECORD Expertly trained by Alain de Royer Dupre, the half-brother to Daylami (Ire) (Doyoun {GB}) sailed through his three starts at two, breaking his maiden at Deauville in August before graduating swiftly to group company with wins in the G3 Prix des Chenes and G1 Criterium International. But it was his 3-year-old season which would set him apart, and in nine career starts only one horse ever got the better of him: the fellow Aga Khan homebred Alamshar (Ire), in the Irish Derby on Dalakhani's sole start outside France. Prior to that he had started his season in the G2 Prix Greffulhe and went on to win the now-defunct G1 Prix Lupin at Longchamp in May before his dazzling turn of foot was seen to full effect in the Prix du Jockey Club. Sent off favourite at The Curragh on his next start in the Irish Derby, with Alamshar sporting the old brown-and-green hooped Click to watch a video on Newsells Park Stud colours of the Aga Khan, Dalakhani raced in isolation in the early newcomer Without Parole stages. Cont. p6 By Emma Berry John and Tanya Gunther's Glennwood Farm produces stallions at a rate which must be the envy of some of the larger operations in the business.

    SATURDAY, JANUARY 16, 2021 TRAINER BRUCE HEADLEY DEAD AT 86 THIS SIDE UP: MANNERS by Dan Ross The California racing circuit lost one of its most charismatic, MAKETH MANDALOUN storied and successful training institutions and purveyors of good old-fashioned horsemanship when Bruce Headley passed away Friday at the age of 86, his family confirmed. Earlier this week, Headley, whose health has been failing for a number of years, suffered bleeding to the brain, complications from which he eventually succumbed. Few individuals have left such an indelible impression on the racing industry in the state--fewer still can boast such a steep climb within the sport from such relative obscurity. Headley grew up on a small-holding in the City of Upland, nestled in the foothills of the San Gabriel Mountains, to parents who had no connection to horseracing. But that didn=t stop a 14-year-old Headley from making his way to the Suzie Q Ranch in Southern California--where he first met a baby-faced Bill Shoemaker--to embark on a race-riding career that was as brief as it was inauspicious due to a losing Prince Khalid Abdullah | Horsephotos battle with the scales.
