Hailstone, bred by Will Farish, et al, and raced by Bill Farish=s Woodford Racing and Westrock Stable, was emerging as Canada=s version of Grassy earlier this season. After clearing his first-level allowance condition at Gulfstream in February, he went on to place in three Grade II=s at Woodbine: the Connaught Cup in June, the Nijinsky S. in July and the Sky Classic S. in August. Mark Casse conditioned the consistent colt, who was produced by a full-sister to Classic winner Summer Squall and a half to A.P. Indy. In addition to Court Vision, Hailstone is also a half to stakes winners Smart Surprise (Smart Strike), Lord Snowdon (Seeking the Gold) and Garcia Marquez (Gulch). Young offered, while the horses weren=t cheap, he didn=t consider them unreasonably priced, either. AActually, I thought they might bring more,@ he admitted. ABut I think good horses always bring money. I don't know Hailstone has well as I know Grassy. Grassy's a very cool horse in many ways. He's always been taken care of like a really good horse, and that's why, as a 5-year-old, there should still be a lot of blue sky above him.@ Young said he thought Grassy might appreciate California's firm turf courses. "And something like the San Juan Capistrano series will probably hit him right between the eyes,@ he added. Young signed for a third racing or stallion prospect, the stakes-placed 4-year-old Christmas for Liam (Saint Liam--Gone for Christmas), who made $90,000 from the Edward P. Evans dispersal being handled by Lane=s End.

Blocks Peddle Some Prado... As a racehorse, Fort Prado (El Prado {Ire}) was easy to root for--tough, sound, versatile and consistent. With the big gray now retired to the stallion barn, the Block family that bred and campaigned him hopes he can pass on those same traits to his offspring. The Blocks--parents David and Patricia, sons Chris and Ryan and daughter Dena--stand Fort Prado in their home state Hip 2935, Fort Prado-- at Hill >n= Dale Illinois. Taxable Deduction With the 10-year-old=s oldest foals now weanlings, the Blocks sent a small three-horse draft to November--comprised only of gray Fort Prado colts--in an effort to showcase some of his best youngsters. It was mission approved yesterday, as the consignment included the day=s highest- and third-highest-priced weanlings. Heading affairs was hip 2935, a half-brother to this year=s GII American Derby runner-up Suntracer (Kitten=s Joy) who was hammered down to Thomas Fedro, Sr. for $75,000. The colt was produced by the 18-year-old Taxable Deduction (Prized). Also on the docket was hip 3121, a half-brother to MSW & GSP Secret Kin (Sea of Secrets) who made $57,000 from Rick Johnson=s bid. From the family of last week=s $1.5 million Bonnie Blue Flag (Mineshaft) and her Grade I-winning sister Diamondrella (GB) (Rock of Gibraltar {Ire}), the colt is a son of Leisurely Kind (Capote). Timber View’s Completing the group was hip Ryan Block 3200, a half-brother to SP Lakeaway (Greenwood Lake) who went to David Kinnaird for $23,000. All three weanlings were bred by Team Block in Illinois and consigned by the family=s TimberView Sales. AHis foals all have great minds and great bodies,@ said Ryan Block, who runs the family=s farm in Central Illinois. AThe thing we keep getting is someone coming to look at one, then asking to see all of them. They=re very impressed. [Hip 2935] probably should have been in Book 3, but we told [Keeneland] that we wanted to sell them all together, and he sold well.@ In a way, the session-topping weanling completes a circuit for the Blocks. It was back in 1999 that they purchased his dam, stakes winner Taxable Deduction, for $200,000 at Keeneland November.

The mare went on to be a successful producer, with her foals including MGSW Free Fighter (Out of Place), an earner of over $440,000; and MSW & MGSP Corrupt (Belong to Me), an earner of over $280,000; as well as Suntracer, who completed the exacta behind Willcox Inn (Harlan=s Holiday) in both the GII American Derby July 9 and GIII Hawthorne Derby Oct. 15. Chris Block, one of the Midwest=s more prominent trainers, conditions Suntracer and the rest of the Team Block runners when they race in Illinois, including Fort Prado. An Illinois-bred, Fort Prado won his first stakes at three in June of 2004, captured a pair of Grade III events at five, and continued to be competitive through his 8-year-old year, when he won the Kentucky Cup Turf Dash. AHe retired sound,@ said Ryan Block. AHe won stakes on the dirt, turf and Polytrack, he won from 5 1/2 furlongs to 1 1/8 miles, and was just a horse for all courses.@ In his first year at stud, Fort Prado attracted 60 mares--a healthy number given the incertitude surrounding the Illinois breeding program. AWe bred a lot of our mares to him--I think we bred 12 to him--and he got 48 others.@ Block added, AIn the past, we always bred to Kentucky stallions, just because there weren't any decent Illinois sires. When we retired Fort Prado, we had an offer to stand him in Canada, which seemed really nice, but boy, that's a heckuva haul to bring our mares up there. So we decided to stand him in Illinois.@ The Blocks have been selling under the TimberView banner for about 10 years. Keeneland photos/editorial by Lucas Marquardt unless noted

NOVEMBER SALES: FIRST NINE DAYS First, I have to apologize for getting the Dispersal and non-dispersal figures wrong in last week=s column, covering Fasig and Keeneland Book 1. I don=t know what I read that caused me to miscalculate the numbers, but I must have double-counted something. Instead of the non-dispersal average coming out within three thousand dollars of the previous two years,= in fact they were up by 35%--which makes a lot more sense, as it continued the trends coming out of the yearling sales. The actual, correct figures were that the two dispersals in Book 1 did consist of 83 horses, but they sold for $57,497,500, and averaged $692,741. The dispersals were almost exactly half of Keeneland=s Book 1 total of $114,681,500 (not 70%, as I incorrectly stated). Fasig, plus non-dispersal Keeneland Book 1 horses, totaled 281 sales, for $89,929,000, and an average of $320,032--a lot higher than the $239,000 and change which we published--and 35% higher than the corresponding non-dispersal averages of $236,697 (in 2010) and $236,200 (in 2009). I apologize again, and I promise that today=s figures have been triple-checked, and I am confident they are actually correct. Yesterday=s ninth session of the Keeneland sale included the racehorses; the numbers from that session are not included in these totals; these figures include Keeneland=s first eight sessions (Books 1-4), and then we add in Fasig=s one-day sale last Sunday. The 2011 edition of the Keeneland November Sale had broken the $200-million mark by the close of business Monday, by which time 1,904 horses had sold for a total of $201,192,900, and an average of $105,669. Last year, at the end of eight sessions, 1,924 horses had sold for $136,145,600, an average of $70,762. So, yes, when we look at Keeneland=s first eight sessions, as a direct comparison with 2010, the number of horses sold is down one percent, the gross is up by 48%, and the average up by 49%. But--you knew that was coming, didn=t you? In the Evans and Palides dispersals, in the first four books, 182 horses have sold for a correct total of $72,206,000, an average of $396,736. Last year, there were no major dispersals; as you know, the bulk of the Overbrook Dispersal was at the 2009 November sale so, if we can get the figures straight, what we=d really like to do is to be able to look at all three years, with dispersal and non-dispersal horses added in and taken out. And then, finally, because from the point of view of the outside world Fasig=s November Sale is just part of the Kentucky November Sale series, we must add

Fasig=s sale in for comparisons. (See Table p14) TDN P HEADLINE NEWS • 11/16/11 • PAGE 13 of 14 • thoroughbreddailynews.com

Oppenheim cont.

These numbers do give us a different perspective on things. Including Fasig plus Keeneland Books 1-4, a total of 1,801 non-dispersal horses have sold; last year, the total for the same nine days--again, no major dispersal-- was 2,013 sold. In 2009, the number was 1,733; in “With the Keeneland sale up nearly 50% from last year, that respect, 2011 compares more to 2009 than 2010. nobody is too bothered about precise measurements which Compared with last year though, 11% fewer try and describe the non-dispersal market (see column), but non-dispersal horses have sold in the November sales= of course when it is all over, it might all look more relevant – that is, if we can get the figures straight, which we didn’t last first nine days; their gross is down by 1.5%, their week (my bad). The shortening of the sale by two days average up by 10%. Compared with 2009, when there takes a lot of horses off the bottom, and will lift the average was a major dispersal, 4% more non-dispersal horses even more by the sale’s end tomorrow night. The good have sold, for an 10% increase in gross, and a 5% news needs to be tempered by reality, but the reality is still increase in average. The non-dispersal horses averaged an improvement over where the business has been.” $85,159 in 2009; $81,581 in 2010, and $89,801 this -- Bill Oppenheim year. When we take the dispersals out--and in spite of the rises in the first three days which I miscalculated-- the numbers are not so different. But these are mixed sales, so other caveats do apply. We have no real way to measure the relative quality of the catalogues, that=s still the case, either between dispersals (49 more horses have sold in the dispersals than to that point in the sales in 2009, grossing over $40-million more) or, indeed, among the non-dispersal horses. Other factors could also be in play; number of Grade I/Group 1 winners sold; number of black-type horses sold; relative stud fees invested in the selling mares, etc. So we wouldn=t exactly be getting too dogmatic about what all the figures might mean.

Young Sires... The impact of the 2008 world credit collapse hit the horse business right after the Keeneland September Yearling Sale that year and continued for 12 months. By 2010, it was just about the worst time to be a first-year stallion; in Kentucky, the highest stud fee for a retiring stallion was $25,000, for 2009 GI Breeders= Cup Sprint favorite Zensational (Unbridled=s Song), who went to Hill >n= Dale. The first crops of the class of 2010 retiring stallions are selling this November. It=s been a largely low-key affair, but one horse who has really created a big impression is WinStar=s Colonel John (Tiznow), winner of the 2008 GI Santa Anita Derby and GI Travers S. His 10 to sell (through Book 4) averaged $105,000, but even more impressive is his $102,500 median--an average of seven times his entering stud fee, and a median of 6.8 times stud fee: a scintillating commercial start. WinStar also has the number two sire of average, U.S. Ranger (Danzig), whose nine to sell (from 10 offered) averaged $62,222. Zensational ($56,400) was next (through Monday), followed by (five or more sold) Old Fashioned ($45,000), Pioneerof the Nile ($34,227), Cowboy Cal ($25,500) and Dunkirk ($17,823). Zensational, Old Fasioned, and Dunkirk are all by Unbridled=s Song; Pioneerof the Nile is by another son of Unbridled, Empire Maker; Cowboy Cal is by Giant=s Causeway.
