CIRCUS MAXIMUS KEEPS MOULIN WIN APPLEBY BASKING IN An appeal hearing at the France Galop headquarters on PERFORMANCE Thursday saw (Ire) (Galileo {Ire} keep his victory in the Sept. 8 G1 Prix du Moulin de Longchamp. The connections of Romanised (Ire) (Holy Roman Emperor {Ire}), runner-up by a nose, had contested the result and filed an appeal of the stewards decision to leave Circus Maximus up, arguing that their rival had drifted in the final furlong and a half and taken Romanised off his racing line. They also argued that a bump caused Romanised to change leads at a crucial stage before he re-rallied to just miss the win (race video). Aidan O=Brien and Ryan Moore, trainer and jockey of Circus Maximus, attended the hearing along with Alan Cooper, racing manager to part-owner the Niarchos Family. Attending on behalf of Romanised were his trainer and jockey Ken Condon and Billy Lee as well as Rupert Pritchard-Gordon representing owner Robert Ng.

Curragh, trainer Charlie Appleby said his star 2-year-old is doing well and that no decision will be made on future plans for at least a week. "He came back from Ireland on Sunday night and he's fit and well, thankfully,@ the Newmarket-based Appleby said. "I spoke to His Highness [Sheikh Mohammed] straight after the race, and we both agreed we'd leave it a week or 10 days before we firmed up any decisions and give him chance to get back into his usual routine. We'll make a final decision in the middle of next week. He's had five runs, and he's a Group 1 winner, so there is no pressure to run him again this year. But at the same time, the [G1] Dewhurst [S. on Oct. 12] is a lovely race to win, and at the moment there is no reason not to run him. We've all enjoyed the ride so far, and long may it continue." Appleby swerved the topic of comparing his budding star to past luminaries. "There has obviously been a lot of talk about it since Sunday, but thankfully the horse doesn't read the papers,@ he said.

He just goes up the gallop and joins his lead horse and doesn't do much after that. You could set your watch by him." Appleby noted that the bay typically shows signs of stalling in his races before finding another gear. "James [Doyle] said when he rode him in the Vintage he was a bit worried at one stage, but then he just changes gear and off he goes," Appleby said. "Sunday was the first time William [Buick] has ridden him on the racecourse, and I told him not to be worried if he wasn't travelling at halfway. William said afterwards he was niggling him along between the three and the two, but then when he put him in the gap he picked up and another gear--he doesn't do that at home."

The Everest is the first goal for Arcadia Queen but a $7.5 STAR 4-YEAR-OLDS EYE million race over what many believe is a more suitable distance against her own age two weeks' later is a terrific back-up option. GOLDEN PRIZE She arrived at Chris Waller's stables as a Group 1 winner in Western Australia, but was yet to prove her credentials on the eastern seaboard. However, after one run, a dominant win in the G2 Theo Marks S., the is now clear favourite for the Golden Eagle and on the second line of betting for The Everest. She is now likely to go straight to the $14 million sprint and then two weeks into the Golden Eagle. In her 3-year-old campaign in Perth, she certainly came into her own once she stretched out in distance and she got better the further into her campaign, with her best performance her 4.5l win in the G1 Kingston Town S.

Classique Legend (Not A Single Doubt x Pinocchio) Trainer: Les Bridge Without The Everest, and the second option of the Golden Eagle, there is no doubt Classique Legend would already be in Hong Kong. His owner Bon Ho was convinced to shoot for the Classique Legend | Bronwen Healy Sydney spring riches by racing manager Carmel Size and they purchased a slot for The Everest, knowing that there was also a rich back-up race two weeks later. by Bren O'Brien Classique Legend has arguably got more potential for The $7.5-million Golden Eagle may have ruffled a few feathers improvement than Arcadia Queen, having had just four starts with its timing, but there can be no doubt it has heightened the across one preparation which culminated in the G2 Arrowfield interest in the current crop of 4-year-olds this spring. 3YO Sprint victory at Randwick. He kicks his campaign off in the There has never been a feature race specifically for 4-year-olds G2 Shorts on Saturday. The only query over him is how he'd in Australia, let alone one worth as much as the Golden Eagle, handle the step up to 1500 metres after The Everest, having not making it the third richest race in the country. raced beyond 1250 metres before. There is also a chance that Combined with the $14 million The Everest, it has proven a should he perform well in the feature sprint, he may be whisked significant lure for horses to train on after their 3-year-old off to Hong Kong to target feature sprint races there. season and target the substantial riches on offer. In total 150 horses were nominated when entries closed last week for the inaugural running of the race over 1500 metres at Mystic Journey (Needs Further x White Gold {NZ}) Rosehill on November 2. We look at ten of the leading Trainer: Adam Trinder contenders in depth. The Tasmanian mare emerged as one of the best 3-year-olds of last season, graduating from fillies' stakes class last spring to Arcadia Queen (Pierro x Arcadia) win the G1 Australian Guineas and the inaugural running of the All-Star Mile in the autumn. The one-time $11,000 yearling has Trainer: Chris Waller now won over $3.5 million in prizemoney and created a fairytale The fact that owner Bob Peters decided to target Arcadia for her trainer Adam Trinder, jockey Anthony Darmanin and Queen at Sydney rather than Melbourne this spring is significant owner Wayne Roser. evidence of how the recent investment in The Everest carnival has changed the game.

Having won the G2 PB Lawrence S. and run second in the G1 It's no surprise she was locked away for a slot in The Everest by Makybe Diva S. this time in, the intention remains for her to the Max Whitby Syndicate, but could she measure up over the campaign towards the G1 Cox Plate. She could still run in the extra distance of the Golden Eagle? She has never been beyond weight-of-age feature and then drop back to the 1500 metres of 1200 metres in her 17 starts to date, but McEvoy is the type of the Golden Eagle the following week, but it would seem an trainer who would consider a shot at the $7.5 million depending unusual path. A final decision on which option she takes will be on what happens in The Everest. Her first-up run in the G3 made after she contests the G1 Turnbull S. at Flemington on Concorde S. was a little below par, and the wet Sydney tracks October 5. aren=t to her liking, so that may be a query as well.

Brutal (NZ) (O'Reilly {NZ} x Alberton Princess {NZ}) Trainer: John, Michael and Wayne Hawkes If there is one horse that looks to be peaking for the Golden Eagle, it is Brutal, who was so impressive in winning the G1 Doncaster Mile at the end of his 3-year-old campaign. Team Hawkes have been so patient with him. They didn't rush him when he won his first three starts last spring and timed his Doncaster campaign perfectly during the autumn, stepping him through three lead-up runs before he delivered in the famous Randwick mile. A small setback in August has seen him held back again this time in, with the intention to give him just one run before his shot at the $7.5 million target race on November 2. Brutal | Bronwen Healy Verry Elleegant (NZ) (Zed {NZ} x Opulence {NZ}) Trainer: Chris Waller The former New Zealand filly put it all together in the autumn The Inevitable ( {NZ} x Gift Bouquet) in her first campaign for Waller, winning the G2 Phar Lap S., G1 Trainer: Scott Brunton Vinery Stud S. and G1 Australian Oaks in successive races to The diminutive Tasmanian is one of the most improved horses prove herself the dominant 3-year-old staying filly of the season. in the land over the past 12 months.

Hayes S. at Flemington. After fading to finish eighth in the G1 But there is significant doubt that she will be at Rosehill on the Australian Guineas, he returned for his spring campaign in a first Saturday in November given she also holds entries for the 1000-metre sprint at Flemington in August and edged out the G1 Caulfield Cup, the G1 Cox Plate and the G1 Melbourne Cup. highly rated Assertive Approach (Akeed Mofeed {GB}). Whether she goes down that path or targets the Golden Eagle He was then completely dominant winning a Listed race at may well be determined by her showing in Saturday's G1 Moonee Valley and is now headed to the Silver Eagle over 1300 Colgate Optic White S. at Randwick. Her first-up performance in metres at Rosehill on October 12 on his way to the Golden Eagle the G1 Winx S. was a little short of expectations. three weeks later.

He has now been freshened up, winning a trial at Morphettville on Thursday, and will go to the Silver Eagle on October 12 and then straight into the Golden Eagle from there. Military Zone (Epaulette x Loading Zone) Trainer: Peter and Paul Snowden A winner of the Listed Gosford Guineas late in 2018, Military Zone returned later in his 3-year-old season to win the Listed Hawkesbury Guineas and G3 Fred Best Classic at Eagle Farm. He looked destined to contest the G1 Stradbroke, but the Snowdens and Triple Crown Racing opted to put him away for later targets. One of those targets is the Golden Eagle, a race which looks ideally suited to a progressive horse like him. He has had a couple of quiet trials this time in, but as yet there is no confirmation of which path he may take to the race, although the Silver Eagle looks an ideal race for him. Ten Sovereigns (Ire) (No Nay Never {USA} x Seeking Solace {GB}) Trainer: Aidan O'Brien If Aidan O'Brien is to have a runner in the Golden Eagle, which allows Northern Hemisphere 3-year-olds to run, it may be the dual Group 1 winner Ten Sovereigns, who is already in quarantine. O'Brien has indicated that he would be the first choice for Coolmore's slot in The Everest, but a wet track would rule him out. Whether his other options in Australia would be Group 1 sprints or a race like the Golden Eagle is not known, but at this stage he is at least in quarantine, while Group 1 winning stablemates Circus Maximus (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) and Fairyland (Ire) (Kodiac {GB}), who are both shorter in the market, are not, and he was in the nominations for the race when they closed last week. Ten Sovereigns possesses a brilliant turn of foot, as demonstrated when he strode clear to win the G1 July Cup by 2.8l. Others in the mix include: Graff (Star Witness), Trope (More Than Ready {USA}), Kolding (NZ) (Ocean Park {NZ}), Gem Song (Your Song), Amphitrite (Sebring) and Fasika ( {NZ}).
