Soon-to-be Hall of Famer Rachel Alexandra (Medaglia d=Oro) demolished the only two fillies brave enough to show up by 19 1/4 lengths in the 2009 GI Mother Goose S. and now her daughter Rachel=s Valentina (Bernardini) looks to follow in her hoofprints in Saturday=s renewal of the Belmont-based race.

Click or tap here to go straight to place from being a paradise? TDN Europe. That=s never a question I thought I=d have to ponder until traveling to the Isle of Jersey to experience a racing card at Les Landes. Beautiful place. God awful weather. God awful weather in July. I guess the answer is you have to take the good with the bad. After the drive from hell (more on the that later), I arrived just prior to the first race Friday at Les Landes and discovered that I was at perhaps the most unique racetrack in the world, one whose charm is in direct contrast with the down-on-their-luck horses that race there and weather right out of the South Pole. The Isle of Jersey is part of the Channel Islands, a group of islands about 14 miles off the coast of France, but actually part of the U.K. Jersey is the biggest island of the group and on the northwest tip of the island sits a racetrack. It is so close to the sea, that if a horse bolted over the outside rail coming out of the clubhouse turn it=d better be a good swimmer. It challenges any racetrack in the world when it comes to the most picturesque setting. AThis is the most picturesque race course in the British Isles,@ said track president Tony Taylor said.

Picturesque, But God It=s Cold cont. from p1 He=s not wrong. To have a racetrack on a cliff overlooking the ocean with cows grazing in the infield makes for a scene you can=t find anywhere else. Sorry, Del Mar. If only the sun would come out. It was 57 degrees and raining in the morning. The weather got a bit better during the day, but it was unbearably cold and windy by the time of the first race. The locals kept telling me that I picked the worst day weather-wise to come to the races, and that on a good day it can get up to 63 or 64 degrees and the wind won=t blow over small children. Gee, whiz. There are nine race meetings on Jersey and one more on Guernsey, another one of the Channel Islands. The purses stink. With so few meetings, the horses can only run a handful of times and the total handle on the card was probably in the neighborhood of $7.82. It makes no sense to have a racetrack here. Yet, that=s the beauty of Les Landes. Nobody runs here to get rich or famous and the track operators aren=t looking to make any money. They=ve been racing here since 1961 because they love . Alyson Malzard is the top trainer. She is so good that it=s quite possible she could become a successful trainer in the U.K. or France. It=s not something she wants to do. AI train racehorses and love it,@ she said. AI live right next door to the race course. I have taken horses to France and have had winners in France. I travel a bit, but I am a Jersey trainer.@ With so few races available on the island, the money Malzard makes from purses is minimal. She says she must survive on her day rate, mainly from local owners, who, like her, get a thrill from winning races in their own backyard. She charges ,37 a day. AI make my living training horses whether they win or not,@ Malzard said. AThe yard gets 10% when we win, but the main thing is that winning keeps the owners happy. The prize money doesn=t affect me in any way.@ These horses will never win a Group 1 in or France and may not be able to win at the Grey Panel as a foal with his dam lowest level at the Minnie=s Mystery | Emma Berry lowest tracks in the U.K. Still, they can become Jersey legends. The fourth race on the card was won by Grey Panel (Largesse), who scored his 12th win on the island. The purse was ,1,780 pounds. Cont. p4

A TRIPLE CROWN-WINNING UNDERDOG AUSTRALIA-BOUND DANCE Story and photos by Lucas Marquardt OF LIFE TOPS ARQANA The centerpiece of South African racing, the 4.25-million rand G1 Vodacom Durban July, will be held today at Greyville Racecourse, and the 2200-metre event is being judged as one of the most wide-open renewals in recent memory. This despite the fact that there=s a Triple Crown winner in the field, the 3-year-old Abashiri (SAf) (Go Deputy), who became the third horse to sweep the series with a win in the G1 South African Derby at Turffontein Apr. 30. The gelding was coming off wins in the G2 Gauteng Guineas and G1 SA Classic. Americans remember Go Deputy as the Todd Plecher-trained son of Deputy Minister who won the GI Sword Dancer Invitational S. at Saratoga in 2006, his lone Grade I victory.

SHAMARDAL GELDING STARS IN HK DEBUT Pakistan Star (Ger) (Shamardal) made headlines and lit up social media on Friday when coming from a long last to win his career debut at Sha Tin for owner Din Kerm and trainer Tony Cruz. The 3-year-old gelding was away slowly in the 1200-metre contest for Griffins, and swiftly dropped back to upwards of 20 lengths off the lead in the field of 14 while under a vigorous ride by jockey Matthew Chadwick. The bay at last began to build momentum as the field swung into the straight; however, he was still last approaching the 300 metre mark. Switching out to the middle of the track, Pakistan Star unleashed a blinding turn of foot to sweep past the entire field and win under wraps by 1 3/4 lengths in a time of 1:09.35, clocking his final 400 metres in :21.22. Pakistan Star was bought by the Hong Kong Jockey Club for i180,000 at the Arqana August Sale in 2014 when named Ninas Shadow, and subsequently sold to Din Kerm for HK$6 million (,580,209/i693,374) at the Hong Kong International Sale in March. Pakistan Star is the second foal out of the dual German stakes winner Nina Celebre (Ire) (Peintre Celebre), who is herself a daughter of the G1 German Oaks winner Next Gina (Ger) (Perugino). Pakistan Star=s third dam, Night Petticoat (Ger) ( {GB}), also took the German Oaks and produced the G1 Deutsches Derby winner Next Desert (Ire) (Desert Style {Ire}). Nina Celebre has a 2-year-old Invincible Spirit (Ire) filly named Networking (Ger) and a yearling Lawman (Fr) colt named Ninas Law (Ire). Click for the HKJC Chart.
