Reading between the lines, it looks as though Ron Winchell and his mother Joan were well aware of the potential of one of their 2007 juve- niles, , before this homebred son of made a winning debut in July 2007. A few weeks earlier, the Winchells had sent another mare from the same family to be mated to Pul- pit=s son Tapit, the result being a colt born May 6, 2008. The Tapit colt=s birth came just three days after Winchell Thorough- breds had suffered a sizeable disap- pointment with Pyro. He had started third favorite behind and Tapizar Benoit photo in the Derby on the strength of clear-cut victories in the GIII Risen Star S. and GII Louisiana Derby. Unfor- tunately, he failed to reproduce the same high level of form--just as he had in the GI Blue Grass S.--in finishing a never-dangerous eighth. Pedigree Insights cont. p4

Pedigree Insights cont. Perhaps the 10th furlong was a little beyond Pyro, even though he went on to finish third in the GI Travers S. After passing into the ownership of Godolphin, Pyro reverted to shorter distances and repaid the move with a Grade I victory in the 2009 S. He is now part of Darley=s stallion team in Japan. Of course, Winchell Thoroughbreds also campaigned Tapit, whose career featured the as well. With his Classic credentials including an impres- sive victory in the GIII Laurel Futurity and a win in the GI Wood Memorial S., Tapit started third choice behind and Lion Heart for the 2004 Derby, but never threatened in finishing ninth. I discussed Tapit with his trainer Michael Dickinson when we met at the Decem- ber Sales, and he feels that rushing Tapit back from ill- Tapit gainesway.com ness to contest the Wood Memorial effectively Abot- tomed@ the son of Pulpit. This prompted me to re-read the coverage of Tapit=s win in the Wood. AWhen we came home from Florida, we did an ultra- sound and it showed a very significant lung infection,@ Dickinson told The Blood-Horse. AWe did another ultra- sound two weeks later and one lung was 100 percent and the other was 80 percent. We gave him a little five- furlong breeze, and he could blow a house down. I was going to wheel him back and work him a mile, but I told [owner Ron Winchell and manager David Fiske], >I=ve got to give him as long as I dare to get him healthy and give the lungs a chance to heal.= It takes 28 days for the lung to get a new lining.@ With Tapit needing more graded-stakes earnings to ensure his place in the Kentucky Derby field, his con- nections took the gamble of sending a less-than-fully-fit colt to the Wood Memorial. AWhat Dickinson feared going into the Wood,@ The Blood-Horse reported, Awas that Tapit, being such a generous and competitive horse, would try too hard and give more than what was expected of him.@ Dickinson=s expectation was that Tapit would come Alate and easy@ to take the $75,000 third prize, but Tapit hadn=t read the script. Although he landed the $450,000 first prize, he disappointed in both his subse- quent starts before retiring to Gainesway. Although Tapit=s racing career petered out, he has continued to reward the Winchells in his role as a stal- lion. Pyro=s dam Wild Vision visited Tapit in 2005 to produce War Echo, winner of the GIII S. for the Winchells, who also bred and raced the talented Retap and the stakes-winning Remit. They also raced the Grade III winner Hightap in partnership with Gainesway, with this partnership also breeding the GIII Comely S. winner Touching Beauty.

Zenyatta added a fitting final chapter to her racing legacy after being named the 2010 Horse of the Year. Briefly retired following her epic win over the boys in the 2009 GI Breeders= Cup Classic at Santa Anita, the big mare picked up right where she left off for her six- year-old campaign, fighting her way through traffic to win the GI Santa Margarita Invitational H. (video). While the GI Apple Blossom Invitational S. (video) failed to produce the anticipated showdown with Horse of the Year Rachel Alexandra (Medaglia d=Oro), Queen Z put on a show while facing four overmatched rivals, inhal- ing the leaders on the turn en route to a runaway win. Given plenty of time off, the daughter of Broodmare of the Year Vertigineux (Kris S.) returned to the Golden State with a pair of heart-stoppers to three-peat in the GI Vanity H. at Hollywood (video) and the GI Clement L. Hirsch S. at Del Mar (video). The Moss colorbearer had her backers holding their collective breath once again while making it 19-for-19 under a perfectly timed late rally in the GI Lady=s Secret Breeders= Cup S. (video), a race she also won in 2008 and 2009. The fairytale story finally came to an end in the Clas- sic, but it certainly didn=t lack drama. Seemingly in Lexington beneath regular pilot Mike Smith while caboosing the field of 12 during the early stages of the $5-million centerpiece, Zenyatta came with those fa- mous giant strides as the Churchill crowd roared, but just couldn=t reel in the classy Blame (Arch), who got his head down on the line first in one for the ages. Unless she pulls off another Brett Favre act, Zenyatta heads to the breeding shed with a record of 20-19-1-0 and $7,304,580 in earnings.

Baffert called an audible following that effort and opted to replace Gomez with up-and-comer --a change that would hopefully turn things around for the seemingly jinxed sophomore. Not favored for the first time in his career when sent postward for Pimlico=s GI Preakness S. May 15, the colt employed his customary come- from-behind move to hand (Stephen Got Even) a 3/4-length defeat in the second jewel of the American Triple Crown (video).

Stricken by illness soon after that winning effort, >Lucky= was forced to miss almost a month of training, but Baffert had the colt back on track for the Oct. 2 GII Indiana Derby at Hoosier Park. Allowed to linger farther behind the early pace than was his custom, Lookin At Lucky was swung wide by Garcia turning for home and proved best to collect his eighth career score at the graded level. He was asked to stretch out to 10 furlongs for his career closer in Churchill=s GI Breeders= Cup Classic Nov. 6 and made a gallant move to put himself into contention turning for home, but his truncated fall training schedule appeared to take its toll as he weak- ened to be fourth behind the classy trio of Blame (Arch), Zenyatta (Street Cry {Ire}) and Fly Down (Mineshaft) (video) . Lookin At Lucky becomes the first two-year-old champion to repeat at three since in 1979. He retired to Coolmore America with a record of 13-9-1-1 and earnings of $3,307,278.

In 2010, the >Iron Filly= Blind Luck completed a rags-to-riches story of her own, and last night was awarded the Eclipse Award by a wide margin over her arch-rival () and Evening Jewel (Northern Afleet).

She made the first of five trips out of California for the GII Fantasy S. Apr. 2 (video), and the 2 1/2-length margin of victory that afternoon was her most comfortable of the year. That result would propel her into favoritism for the GI . With main rival Devil May Care () opting for the GI Kentucky Derby the next day, the task for Blind Luck appeared that much easier. But an expected lively pace failed to develop, and Blind Luck found herself last for the opening five furlongs. She began to pick off rivals on the turn, switched wide for the drive and looked on her way to validating favoritism. Evening Jewel had something left to say--the GI Ashland S. winner dug in tenaciously, only to be victimized for a second time by Blind Luck=s snoot (video) . Returned to the Golden State, the champ was runner- up in a paceless renewal of the GII Hollywood Oaks, but atoned with another narrow success, this time over the upstart Havre de Grace in the GII Delaware Oaks in July (video). The budding rivalry was renewed in the GI Alabama S., where Blind Luck squared off for the first--and only--occasion with Devil May Care. The Todd Pletcher trainee, odds-on to assume divisional suprem- acy that day, got first run, but the California raider ran past Havre de Grace for a neck score, with Devil May Care soundly defeated in fourth (video) . That race would mark the end of the season for Devil May Care, but not for Blind Luck and Havre de Grace, who met again in the GII Fitz Dixon Cotillion S. Oct. 2. Havre de Grace, in receipt of 10 pounds, outlasted her foe, but Blind Luck lost nothing in defeat, closing with her trademark relentlessness to miss by a neck. Her body of work earned Blind Luck a quote of 3-2 for the GI Breeders= Cup Ladies= Classic, but, as is her custom, she dropped well off a sluggish pace and came late to be second, 1 3/4 lengths behind Unrivaled Belle (Unbridled=s Song), but a length ahead of Havre de Inquiries to: John J.

CH. 2YO COLT UNCLE MO Owner: Repole Stable Breeder: D Michael Cavey DVM (Ky) Trainer: Todd Pletcher

Uncle Mo=s debut on Travers Day at Saratoga, Aug. 28, was so stirring and impressive that he almost stole the day=s spotlight from a riveting photo finish in the AMidsummer Derby.@ The $160,000 KEENOV weanling turned $220,00 KEESEP yearling absolutely destroyed nine foes, dashing from gate to wire 14 1/4 lengths in front of his next-best rival and earning a 102 Beyer Speed Figure for the effort (video). He was a no- brainer recipient of the J “TDN Rising Star” J tag. Mike Repole, who enjoyed an excellent Spa meet as leading owner, told the TDN in an interview after Uncle Mo=s debut, AI=ve been in the game for six years as an owner and almost 30 years as a racing fan. I=ve been going to Aqueduct since I was a 13-year-old kid and hoping for a horse like this.@ A dream fulfilled would only get better. After more than a month of rest, the justifiably hyped colt returned in the Oct. 9 GI Champagne S. at Belmont, proving emphatically that his unveiling was no fluke and a route of ground was no obstacle as the overwhelming 2-5 choice. The bay dueled on the front end and disposed of all comers with devastating ease, displaying his long, fluid stride en route to a 4 3/4- length success and certain Breeders= Cup favoritism (video). The GI Breeders= Cup Juvenile was billed as a show- down between Uncle Mo and GI Hopeful S. winner Boys At Tosconova (Officer), but the former, once again, turned it into a one man (against boys) show. The Repole colorbearer rated ominously just off the leader early, but was already four lengths in front by the time they hit the top of the stretch. Boys At Tosconova ran very well to be second--and in many other crops would have become a Breeders= Cup and Eclipse champion--but he came up 4 1/2 lengths short of the top gun. It was another six lengths back to third (video). Like almost every juvenile champ at the beginning of his sophomore campaign, Uncle Mo is the favorite for the GI Kentucky Derby until further notice. He is ex- pected to return in the Mar. 12 GII Tampa Bay Derby. AWow--for people who know me, I=m not speechless or overwhelmed too many times in my life,@ Repole said after accepting the trophy. AThe good news is that I=m not speechless, but I am overwhelmed. I=m over- whelmed by being in the room with racing legends; I=m overwhelmed by holding an award that the great Secre- tariat won, that the great Seattle Slew won, that the great won.
