At the meeting's conclusion, John Ward made note Two members of the KHRC went so far as to say that the KHRC had received, as of Tuesday morning, that, should the commission ban Lasix in black-type 776 emails about the issue. He said 643 were in favor races, they would not buy racing prospects in Kentucky of the ban on Lasix for black-type events, while 133 in the coming year.

It's about what's best for the horse, and it š › would be irresponsible for us not to advocate its use." Another common theme among the pro-Lasix crowd was that Kentucky=s struggling industry could ill-afford to become an "island" on the national racing scene should it be the only state to enact a ban. "I'm here to help ensure that this commission gives the owners, trainers and racetracks of Kentucky a fighting chance," said Rusty Arnold. "At a time when [they're] in a fight for their lives, why make them go it alone? At a time when we are back on our heels due to a shrinking horse population, loss of racing dates and slots-fueled purses in neighboring states, and a Kentucky state senator [David Williams] who has turned his back on Kentucky's signature industry, why now? Owners, trainers and horses are leaving Kentucky dailyYdon't help push them out." Standing as his own island was William Koester, a commissioner on the Ohio State Racing Commission who described himself as a small breeder with horses based in Kentucky. "I disagree with everyone who has spoken before me," Koester declared as the day's penultimate speaker. "I believe we should get rid of Lasix on raceday. A gentleman here mentioned gambling. Let me tell you something--75% of HANA [Horseplayers Association of North America] believe that raceday medication should be eliminated. Talking about owners, 77% of [the members of] the Thoroughbred Owners and Breeders of America [TOBA] believe that raceday medication should be eliminated.

STALLION ECONOMICS 101 In the wake of Camelot=s commanding five-length win in last Saturday=s G1 Epsom Derby--the fourth winner of the race in eight crops of 3-year-olds by his late sire, Montjeu--all sorts of helpful suggestions are being made as to what his program should now be. One contingent, evidently led by the Racing Post, has been very vocal that he should attempt to become the first English >Triple Crown= winner since Nijinsky II in 1970 by pointing for the 14-furlong G1 English St. Leger, run at Doncaster the second weekend in September. Another contingent--or maybe the same one--insists he should drop to 10 furlongs. This became a very popular route for a while, because people mistakenly believed that winning Group 1=s at 10 furlongs after winning them at 12 furlongs proved more versatility and would be popular with breeders. Plus, this year, everybody keeps trying to find ways to match horses up with Frankel. But Montjeu himself, and Galileo--the world=s two best sires--have proven beyond all reasonable doubt that top 12-furlong horses can make top sires. Why mess with a formula that works? What really needs to happen is that top middle-distance 3-year-olds, in the second half of the year, should take on the top older horses to find out where they really stand in the pecking order. What Camelot really needs to do is prove he can beat the top older horses at 12 furlongs by contesting a race like, I don=t know, the G1 Prix de l=Arc de Triomphe. That=s what tells industry professionals who are not carried away on some wave of utopian idealism where a horse really rates; all these other things are diversions, because what really needs to happen is Camelot needs to run against the top older horses at his best distance before he retires to stud at Coolmore, to succeed Montjeu, in 2013. He broke the mold by winning the G1 English 2000 Guineas, and Coolmore needs him much more at stud in 2013 than they need him running in more Group 1=s which are not going to tell anybody more than we=ll already know by the end of this year, provided, touch wood, he gets a clean run and stays sound. There=s an awfully lot of bleating going on just now, and maybe it is well-intentioned; but it also betrays a failure to understand the true economics of this industry. In losing Montjeu this year, Coolmore lost the second-best sire in the world. His best son--the one who won the Guineas as well as the Derby--needs to move in there to try and become his best sire son, too. The only race that really matters for him now is the >Arc=. That should be the target. Everything else is the warm-ups. Even the reputation of Sea The Stars-- considered the of Europe just three years ago--was really established by three races: the English 2000 Guineas, the Epsom Derby, and the >Arc=.

If you really want a European Triple Crown, that=s it.

It really is European gross is now only about 10% below the notoriously hard to judge 3-year-olds until they start to corresponding gross in 2008. The number sold in North America dropped another 11% this year, but the gross was run against older horses, but there was a time up by seven percent, and the average by 20%. The North comparison available from Saturday which looks American gross is still down by a third from 2008.” significant: Camelot ran the mile and a half three-fifths – Bill Oppenheim of a second faster than 5-year-old St. Nicholas Abbey (also by Montjeu, of course) ran an hour earlier. >St. Nick= won the G1 Coronation Cup by 4 1/2 lengths.

Camelot was assigned a Racing Post Rating of 127 (Timeform: 130p). The Niarchos Family=s previously unbeaten Main Sequence (by Aldebaran, but whose second dam is a half-sister to Shiva and 2007 G1 Epsom Oaks winner Light Shift) just got up on the post to grab second for now Lambourn-based trainer David Lanigan, from Coolmore number two, Astrology (Galileo), the G3 Dee S. winner who had led all the way, until his stablemate eased by him.

Shirocco Star, by, obviously, Shirocco, ran a very good race to finish second (RPR 114), while the well-fancied Vow (Motivator) didn=t look like she really handled the track either, and ran well enough to finish fourth (RPR 112). Maybe, in fifth (RPR 109), failed to stay, and will drop back in trip. The first four would certainly be entitled to have another go in the G1 Irish Oaks in a few weeks= time; and if they do, The Fugue will likely be an even shorter price to prevail than she was at Epsom. Trainer Freddy Head had been quoted beforehand to the effect that 20 runners for the 2100 meter G1 Prix du Jockey-Club at Chantilly was bound to cause traffic problems, and his worries proved to be prophetic. It looked just like trying to drive around the Arc de Triomphe in the middle of Paris--chaos, no lanes, traffic going in all directions. Two of the four favorites finished second and fourth: Godolphin=s G3 Prix de Guiche winner Saint Baudolino (Pivotal) finished an honorable second (RPR 117) in spite of finding trouble; and the Aga Khan=s G2 Prix Greffulhe winner, Kesampour (King=s Best), was always on the premises and stayed on okay for fourth (RPR 117), in a three-horse photo for second. Saonois was assigned RPR 118, while the third, Nutello (Lemon Drop Kid), supposedly a pacemaker for more fancied stablemate Sofast (Rock of Gibraltar), stayed on again to also run an RPR 117. Meanwhile, the other two favorites, French Fifteen (Turtle Bowl), who had run such a great race when second to Camelot in the G1 English 2000 Guineas; and heavy-ground G3 Sandown Classic Trial winner Imperial Monarch (Galileo), for Coolmore, both found plenty of trouble and finished 10th and eighth, respectively. G2 Dante S. second Ektihaam (Invincible Spirit) was always struggling, and finished towards the rear. You=d have to bet Main Sequence and Astrology to beat the lot of them, really; you wouldn=t think anything out of the >Jockey-Club= would be troubling Camelot. Two tips of the hat from the weekend, too: The Derby Festival has been revitalized since Bernard Kantor=s Investec Bank realized that a great marketing opportunity had arisen, and took over sponsorship in 2009; that has been a great partnership for everybody-- the track, the company, and the fans, too. Kudos also to Tattersalls Sales Company; my good friend Jimmy George, their marketing supremo, reminds me they have now sold four winners of five of the six British and Irish Classics run so far (Camelot x 2, Power, Samitar, Was). That=s a good strike rate, for sure.
