DE KOCK ADMITS RAIN CONCERNS Trainer Mike de Kock has admitted that Soft Falling Rain (SAf) (National Assembly), the winner of last year=s G2 Godolphin Mile and G2 Joel S., has not had an ideal preparation for his assignment in Tuesday=s G1 Queen Anne S. at Royal Ascot. "He didn't travel well back from Dubai--he was off for a while and 10 important days were lost," said de Kock. "It's not what you want going into a Group 1, without doing the things you needed to do. Hopefully he'll get away with it and can finish in the first four.@ "Fast ground will suit,@ de Kock added. AHis form's good, but whether he's up to running against the likes of Toronado Soft Falling Rain remains to be seen. He will need Racing Post to up his game." The South African trainer was more upbeat about the chances of his G1 King=s Stand S. contender Shea Shea (SAf) (National Emblem {SAf}). Last year=s G1 Al Quoz Sprint winner looks to avenge a second-place finish to Sole Power (Ire) (Kyllachy {GB}) in this event 12 months ago. "His preparation has been good,@ de Kock said. AI was a lot easier on him in Dubai and hopefully he's a fresh horse.@ The conditioner also noted that G1 Champions Mile victor Variety Club (SAf) (Var), who joined his stable from fellow South African trainer Joey Ramsden just prior to his big Hong Kong victory, is currently taking it easy. "We'll probably go to the Breeders' Cup with him, with a prep run in between," de Kock said. "He might then go back to Hong Kong, but he needed a good rest."

Gypsies and the Derby's histories are firmly intertwined, as the Derby became the meeting place for many Gypsy families. Records show that by 1891 there were about 40 Gypsy families living on the Epsom Downs. Yet it was during the Victorian era that they became an integral part of the Derby celebrations. There to watch the racing and entertain the crowds were fortune-tellers, dancers, flower sellers, fiddlers, A GYPSY GRAVE AND THE acrobats and even stilt walkers. As always, there was a mixed reaction from the By Liesl King racegoers to the Gypsy presence. Some campaigned for It is that time of the year again, when I happily pack their right to attend, while others simply called them my bags and head for Newmarket, a town that truly troublemakers. It wasn't long before there was an lives for racing. From the High Street to the nooks and attempt to remove all the Gypsies from the Epsom crannies, horses rule, and in the birthplace of racing, Downs in the early 1930's.

So great was his despair, that he hanged himself from a nearby tree and was buried at this spot. Sadly, the sheep were all accounted for and he had simply miscounted. For years, gypsies tended the grave and even to this day flowers and even coins regularly appear on the little grave. Passing cyclists have claimed they are compelled to dismount, and legend has it that the colors of the Yesterday=s op-ed from Randy Moss, When Tradition flowers before a big racing day, such as last weekend's Fails The Test Of Time, on changing the Triple Crown Derby, are those of the winning horse. And indeed, spacing provoked a flood of content. A selection there on the simple small grave were some white, appears below. But first, a clarification from Moss: purple and blue flowers. Admittedly blue is not in The tradition of changing Triple Crown dates is even Australia's silks, but white and purple most certainly stronger than I realized.

JACK JONES Mr. Moss=s piece revealed a great number of interesting facts about the history of the Triple Crown races, but unfortunately failed to mention the elephant in the room--Lasix. Mr. Evans indicated that it would be better for the horses to spread out the races and Mr. Moss believes that California Chrome would have benefitted from extra weeks of recuperation. Could the fact that Lasix is now so prevalently used in the Triple Crown races, thus requiring longer periods of recovery after a race by virtue of their loss in weight, that horses need more time between races? When the last Triple Crown winner Affirmed accomplished the feat in 1978, Lasix was not permitted in New York, nor was it permitted or in use for many of those that preceded him. Maybe, just maybe, if the Triple Crown races were run with a change in the conditions of each race whereby Lasix was prohibited, there just might be more horses who compete in all three races, or like Citation run more frequently than once a month. As Tom Ainslie recommended 35 years ago, when Lasix was not in everyday use, we might be able to have more horses to bet that run more often than once every month.

RUSSELL JONES My contention is that the Triple Crown has been made more difficult since Lasix has been used. The issue is not the Lasix, but the recovery time after its use. This is made worse when Lasix is used for workouts between races. At the end of five weeks of this dehydration/rehydration cycle you get to the Belmont with a whole lot less fuel in the tank than BOB WEST when you began. Perhaps we should run a non-Lasix Yes, it's too bad that California Chrome didn't win Triple Crown before we change the spacing of the the Belmont and nobody was pulling harder for him races. than myself, but his defeat only emphasizes what true greatness it takes to sweep the Triple Crown. ROBIN CARDOZA Secretariat was not a horse in the generally defined Randy Moss hits the nail on the head. Mr. Evans as sense of the word. He was a monster. What horse well. lowers a track record by nearly three seconds and sets The fear or stubbornness to change with the times as a world record in the process? If they run the Belmont I see it, is what is holding racing back from gaining new for a thousand years, I can't see another horse ever fans and owners--much-needed fans at that. The breaking that record. Seattle Slew won the Triple traditionalists remember and forget according to what Crown undefeated. No other horse has ever done that works for them. If you really care about the horses that either. Affirmed and Alydar were many lengths the best you are pushing to race at distances they aren't bred to in all three Triple Crown races and Spectacular Bid was run you would give them the time to rest between a certain Belmont winner (after having won both earlier these grueling races. I do think one day a horse will win legs of the Triple Crown in dominant fashion) against a the Triple Crown again. But not until there is either rested, for the most part, quality field if not for a change in the spacing of the Triple Crown races or terrible ride by an inexperienced jockey with his own breeders go back to breeding and running horses bred set of problems. to go 1 1/2 miles in larger numbers. I'm more for the The question has to be asked, not whether the Triple breeding to change more than anything. Crown conditions need to be changed, but whether the Moss makes very valid points on how to create more modern American thoroughbred is as good, horse for interest in racing. Then again, maybe the status quo is horse, as they were in the 1970's and 80's. happy with smaller fields, less owners, a declining fan Maybe I've been around too long, but it sure looks to base, empty stands other than boutique meets or big me like we could use an infusion of the best European racing days, etc...Makes no sense to me.
