And two of its three principal dividends, albeit infinitesimal on the scale of the investment they represented, caused those involved to reflect afresh on the recent loss of two of its most significant modern achievers. The sale, introduced to meet residual demand after the February Sale had been severely constricted by Covid regulations, welcomed back horses and horsemen to Park Paddocks within the kind of protocols that had permitted far more important business to proceed here in 2020. If an 89% clearance rate was the familiar double-edged sword of the pandemic market--yes, there is wholesome demand; but very possibly reserves are unambitious--then it was certainly a worthwhile exercise. If nothing else, the sale could be viewed as an encouraging pilot for the forthcoming breeze-up circuit, and perhaps also as a symbol of the broader hope accompanying the vaccination rollout in Britain.

The 2020 Irish Flat season yielded 11 individual Group 1 winners--seven were by sires with a career sales median (in GB SPECIAL CONDITIONS and Ireland) within i75,000. The fact that over 60% of Irish Group 1 winners last year came from a similar category to the RACING: THE NEW KID ON 369 entries for this year's Ballyhane S. is a testament to the fact THE BLOCK By Angus Robertson that Special Conditions Racing doesn't diminish quality. In Global Views, Godolphin Flying Looking further afield at Special Conditions Racing and how it Start trainees provide insight into has helped propel an industry, we can examine numerous practices experienced and initiatives within Australia.

People in the Thoroughbred industry do it for a love of the $100,000.

It also creates better wagering Many have long said that British and Irish prizemoney systems environments with large fields of unexposed horses. Since 2015, require major restructuring to direct increased wagering further initiatives have been launched nationwide such as The revenue back into racing. However, as exemplified by the Irish Everest concept formulated around the offering of 12 >slots', EBF Ballyhane S., there is enormous potential for Special where purchasers front A$600,000 (towards prizemoney) for a Conditions Races to initiate a transition towards more holistic position in the race for three years. It's now the world's richest and successful prizemoney systems, as well as improving overall turf race worth A$15 million, and registers the highest betting racing quality and competitiveness. hold behind the G1 Melbourne Cup, a true reflection of The Ballyhane S., run for the first time in 2020, is based on a customer engagement. model of stallion median sales prices, where a horse's sire requires a sales median below i75,000. Race weights are then allocated on the same scale. Entries for this year number 369, all hoping for a shot at the total prizemoney of i200,000. Last year's entries set an Irish record--563, where runners competed for i320,000 across two divisions, making it Ireland's richest race for juveniles. So why do special conditions strike such excellent balance and attract such popularity? The blunt reality of horse racing is not all stakeholders are in a position to spend six-figure sums on yearlings. Many up-and-coming trainers and owners work tirelessly to build client bases before they're able to compete at the top buying bench. This ballot affords huge opportunity to such players, where in other 2-year-old or group-level events they are simply crowded out by the top-level sales purchases. Many may debate that these races reduce competition and The connections of Redzel celebrate his win in The Everest quality, and whilst this specific format restricts horses by Bronwen Healy elite-tier sales stallions, here is an interesting statistic.

Furthermore, in 2020, one slot was purchased by micro-share syndicate MiRunners, offering 1,000 customers the ultimate FIRST-SEASON SIRES ownership experience--a key example of how Special Conditions WITH RUNNERS Racing can benefit all stakeholders. The Kosciuszko, a A$1.3- million Country-only event on Everest day, determines its slot holders through a raffle, giving each $5 ticket holder the chance Thursday, April 1: to have a horse in the race. In 2019, the A$5-million All-Star Mile was introduced in Victoria, where horses above a minimum rating are selected via public vote. Each voter goes into the running to become an owner-ambassador, with a chance to receive A$500,000 if their chosen horse wins. It's interesting to note that nine of the 15 starters this year were Group 1 winners, and the race recorded the highest Victorian turnover for 2021, a staggering A$17.88 million-- another example of Special Conditions Racing generating immense popularity. Another exciting development is the recent formulation of "Midway Races" which will operate similar to the A$100,000 TAB Highways, but be aimed at small and mid-sized stables in Provincial and Metropolitan regions. As stated by Racing NSW Chairman Russell Balding, they have been introduced with the aim of "building competitiveness and further developing field Recorder has a runner on Thursday | Montfort et Preaux sizes and quality for metropolitan racing."

However, 108 foals of racing age/0 winners/0 black-type winners how did these races reach such status? The fact is many trace 2-CHANTILLY, 1000m, Hot Queen (Fr) back hundreds of years to the earliest race days, where owners would gather and compete with each other for substantial personal wagers. The lure of an exciting new concept was what led to increased competition and a foundation for the pattern we see today. Special Conditions Racing aims to replicate just that--using exciting new concepts that allow all stakeholders to compete. And in using race models that put prizemoney back into a wider spread of stakeholders, it generates a positive cyclical effect throughout the whole industry. It seems only a matter of time before Special Conditions Races start to gain momentum in Europe, and it would not be surprising to see other industry organisations follow the likes of Ballyhane in the endorsement of such events. Be it other stud farms, sales companies or bloodstock agencies, many of these major players can mutually benefit from the endorsement of Special Conditions Racing. In the current climate of COVID-19, it=s more important than ever to put forward initiatives that capture wider audiences, be it on-course or on-air, all whilst rewarding the stakeholders who help our industry prosper.

UAE TRAINER FINED FOR ARSENIC POSITIVES Trainer Khalifa Al Neyadi has been fined AED40,000 (i9,278/,7,894) after two runners in his care returned levels of arsenic above the permitted threshold in post-race tests in March. Both horses--White Sky (Ire), a Thoroughbred, and Jayide Al Boraq (MA), a Purebred Arabian--were disqualified from their placings in the races in question. While Al Neyadi denied that either horse had had any recent medication or treatment, he pled guilty to presenting the horses to race with elevated levels of arsenic in their systems. Al Neyadi exercised his right to have the reserve portion of each horse=s urine tested, with both reserve samples also returning a positive. Five hay samples from Al Neyadi=s stable were tested--one provided by Al Neyadi and four obtained by the Emirates Racing Authority. The sample provided by Al Neyadi was found to contain abnormal levels of arsenic, while the others did not; however, the abnormal levels were not deemed high enough to explain the positives. Arsenic is a trace mineral found in nature and always present in the body, but elevated levels must enter the body through treatment or ingestion. Arsenic at very high levels can be toxic to the horse.

Almanzor has been the leading first-season sire at every major ALMANZOR & HELLO Australasian sale this year. AIt gives him a huge opportunity as a stallion and we know how YOUMZAIN BOOKED FULL important that support from the breeder base is. The momentum from him has spilled over to Hello Youmzain,@ Plumptre said. AIt was a bit of a leap of faith to buy into him as a 3-year-old. He had won a Group 1 and were assured by our partner Nicholas de Chambure (Haras d=Etreham) that he was a very good-looking horse, which is obviously an important ingredient for New Zealand.@

Diamond Outcome Hello Youmzain further stamped his class when the son of Kodiac (GB) won the G1 Royal Ascot Diamond Jubilee S. last June. AThat was a result from heaven as a stallion and he was Group 1-placed in France a month later. He is a high-calibre horse. We=ve got a slightly different syndicate in him, he=s a Almanzor to stand at Cambridge Stud in 2021 | Haras d'Etreham Danehill-line sprinter, but also many familiar faces as well,@ Plumptre said. By Paul Vettise AThe books to be full by the end of March is as much down to Cambridge Stud shuttle stallions Almanzor (Fr) and Hello the fact that we=ve got the right horses and the breeding base Youmzain (Fr) will arrive in New Zealand for the 2021 breeding has been very confident in the way we have promoted them. season to remarkable levels of support with both stallions The support has been unprecedented and we are very grateful.@ already fully booked. Almanzor and Hello Youmzain will join Embellish (NZ), Multiple Group 1 winners Almanzor, whose first Southern Savabeel=s Group 1-winning son who will stand for a fee of Hemisphere crop has sold well beyond expectations this year, NZ$4000 + GST, on the stallion roster. and newcomer Hello Youmzain were offered at NZ$30,000 + GST and were limited to 140 mares apiece. The popularity of Cambridge Stud=s new stallions is a welcome change of fortune for Brendan and Jo Lindsay=s showpiece nursery, which has gone through tough times in recent years following the tragic passings of stallions Tavistock (NZ), Roaring Lion (USA) and Burgundy (NZ). AI think we have come a long way in three years. The one factor which has helped us very much is that we had a very loyal band of shareholders and breeders into Almanzor in those first two or three years,@ Chief Executive Officer, Henry Plumptre, said. AThey have been rewarded with strong sales this year across nearly every major yearling sale. He=s enjoyed phenomenal times with his yearlings being, not only well received by the market, but going to a host of different training yards across Australia and New Zealand.@ (Left to right) Mike Fleming, Brendan Lindsay & Henry Plumptre Bronwen Healy TDN AUSTRALIA/NEW ZEALAND • PAGE 2 OF 2 • THETDN.COM THURSDAY • 1 APRIL 2021

AIn Almanzor and Hello Youmzain, we have found two European stallions with great conformation, strong pedigrees and outstanding performance. With Embellish, we have a son of New Zealand=s premier stallion with the same attributes,@ Plumptre said.AHe has been well supported with over 240 mares across his first two seasons and he has passed his own good looks on to his foals.@ Plumptre said the New Zealand industry had made significant progress in recent times to instill future confidence. AThe Racing Bill and the length of time it took to formulate it into an Act Of Parliament showed the amazing job Winston Peters did in getting that over the line. I=m not sure the racing industry really understands the size of the gift horse that they have been presented with. The mechanism is now there for the industry to rejuvenate itself. ACOVID has been difficult for everybody and our stake money hasn=t moved and that=s got to be the next catalyst. Brendan Lindsay is nothing if not an optimist, but it=s business-based optimism and we are seeing green shoots in the industry here. You look at Gavelhouse and it=s a very good barometer where the trading is and that=s a very strong market at the moment. AWhen we went to the market three weeks ago with these two stallions, it=s fair to say they were put to bed in less than eight days. That is a phenomenal result and wouldn=t have been the same three years ago. AThere is some confidence in the market here and the recovery will be slow, but if we get exponential growth, people investing in mares and more prizemoney getting back into the system we are going the right way.@ Cambridge Stud will continue to grow its stallion roster in keeping with a 10-year business plan. AOur intention is to keep identifying the right horses to bring here and keep New Zealand breeders breeding in New Zealand,@ Plumptre said. AWe still lose a significant number of broodmares to Australia and we need to redress that balance.@

FIREWORKS AT THE TOP THE TDN TOP 10 FOR APRIL 1 by Bill Finley AT FASIG GULFSTREAM The picture for the GI Kentucky Oaks might look a lot different late Saturday afternoon than it does at the present. There are four races on tap--the GIII Gazelle S., the GI Ashland S., the GIII Fantasy and the GII Santa Anita Oak--that will feature more than a dozen serious candidates for the last Friday in April. Five horses among our top 10 are slated to go. Meanwhile, last weekend=s action featured a win in the GII Gulfstream Park Oaks for Crazy Beautiful (Liam=s Map) and a strong showing for runner-up Millefeuille (Curlin), who rebounded off a poor effort the in the GII Davona Dale S.

AOverall, I think it was a healthy marketplace,@ Browning said. APeople want quality horses and I think it bodes well for the rest of the 2-year-old sales and gives us encouragement for the yearling sales starting this summer.@ But the margin between perceived quality and the lower-end offerings was razor thin. Of the 186 juveniles catalogued, 105 went through the ring and 38 of those failed to sell. AThe 2-year-old game is still a game of performance and vetting,@ Browning said. AThere are even more hoops to jump through than there used to be.

times we will see something like this. The mare cap might limit what people are willing to spend. You are seeing the result of that now with what the Coolmore group is doing with these colts that are coming through the ring. You better jump on them now because at the end of the day, they are worried about the regulation coming down and affecting the price of the colts if this mare cap gets pushed through.@ Coolmore has been a major buying presence at the Gulfstream sale.

The likely favorite for the Oaks, Travel Column is as solid as they come. Since winning the GII Golden Rod S. last fall at If Clairiere has a flaw it is that she may be dependent on a fast Churchill, she hasn=t missed a beat and defeated rival Clairiere in early pace.

She got a very favorable trip in the GIII Honeybee S., where she got the lead after posting soft fractions. Rather than stay at Oaklawn for the Fantasy, trainer Dallas Stewart has entered his filly in the Ashland, which is looking like a very tough spot. Stewart won the Oaks in 2006 with Lemons Forever (Lemon Drop Kid). She is the first foal out of Girls Secret (Giant=s Causeway), a winner of just one of six career starts.

She was supposed to start her 3-year-old campaign in the Davona Dale S., but came down with a minor problem, which caused trainer Todd Pletcher to go back to the drawing board.

"Our Anti-Slaughter Edited press release Committee, chaired by Kate Goldenberg, has done a wonderful job addressing what can be done to help our equine athletes." PHBA Board member Hank Nothhaft, also a member of the Anti-Slaughter Committee, said that endorsement of the SAFE Act was something the organization wanted to do to be a positive force toward improving the industry. The fact that many unwanted Thoroughbred broodmares are found in slaughter pens proved to be a call to action. "There was unanimous support from the PHBA Board to mitigate the slaughter of broodmares," said Nothhaft. "Older broodmares, especially, are not attractive candidates for equestrian activities, and thus they are not as easy to rehome as younger horses. This has really pushed us from sitting on the bench toward getting into the fray." "Our hope is to form a non-profit within our organization, to Racing in Pennsylvania | Sarah Andrew assist our breeders when the time comes," said Jennifer Poorman of the PHBA.
