Reeves Racing and Dream Team One Racing Stable=s Mucho Macho Man (Macho Uno) looks to repeat his 1 1/2-length GII Risen Star S. success Feb. 19 in this afternoon=s $1-million GII Louisiana Derby back at Fair Grounds. AHe=s doing great. We=re back in town and ready to run,@ beamed conditioner Kathy Ritvo Thursday. The GII Nashua S. and GII Remsen S. TAKE TWO FOR TWICE OVER runner-up has enough speed to be on When Khalid Abdulla=s Twice Over (GB) (Observatory) or near the lead, but the presence of came to Meydan last year to contest the G1 Dubai lightly raced speedsters Majestic World Cup, he had just a few days Harbor (Rockport Harbor) and Left to acclimate to his surroundings, (Arch) could call for rating tactics. and he hadn=t been out since a third AWe=re going to see how he breaks, Mucho Macho Man in the GI Breeders= Cup Classic at and let [jockey] Rajiv [Maragh] make S K Andrew Santa Anita more than four months that decision,@ Ritvo explained. Elite prior to that. He was forced to Alex (Afleet Alex), who put in a last-to-third run in the check early on in the race and never Feb. 21 GIII Southwest S. over the Hot Springs oval, found a spot to tuck in, finishing a would benefit from quick early fractions. Pilot Calvin disappointing 10th, albeit beaten Borel--rider of three of the last four GI Kentucky Derby only three lengths.

Cont. p12 Twice Over and a bad bump, and he couldn=t get in. Queally Michael Marten Whether that was the reason I don=t TDN TODAY know.@ Cecil has steered his charge Headline News...... 16 pages along a much different path for a second tilt in tonight=s $10-million event, however, and all indications so far are that the changes in preparation are paying off. The now 6-year-old=s 2010 campaign post-World Cup was highlighted by successes in the G1 Eclipse S. at Sandown and the G1 Champion S. at Newmarket, but Twice Over=s impressive 2 3/4-length tally last out in the course-and-distance G2 Maktoum Challenge (Round 3) Mar. 3 over four of today=s foes seems like the strongest signal that he will be hard to beat. AThe idea was to bring him over here and settle him in and get

him into a race,@ Cecil explained. AIf he hadn=t handled the surface or hadn=t settled, I would have brought him right back. He seemed to do everything very nicely. He had a good blow on the backstretch and a good blow afterwards. But he seems to have come on a lot.@ Cecil was also pleased with the way his charge cantered over the track under Tom Queally Friday morning, and cited Twice Over=s post position, number 12 (one out from last year), as the only concern. AHopefully, now that he has adapted himself to the track, he will cope with it better now. I think he is definitely better than last year... No, I know he is better than last year, he said. @ Cont. p2 www.coolmore.com

>Gio= Also Seeking Redemption... Castleton Lyons= champion Gio Ponti (Tale of the Cat) looks to secure the World Cup for America and improve on last year=s third-place finish under top U.S. pilot Ramon Dominguez. Trainer Christophe Clement has been pleased with how the 6-year-old, last seen finishing runner-up to supermare Goldikova (Ire) (Anabaa) in the Nov. 7 GI Breeders= Cup Mile under the Twin Spires, is coming into the race. AI=m very Clement at Meydan happy. He moved well from Michael Marten the beginning,@ said the Frenchman after a gallop Friday. Owner Shane Ryan added, AIt=s in God=s hands now. He seems to be in good order, and I hope he can put his best foot forward. [To win] would be the icing on the cake--he=s done everything we=ve asked. Just to be back a second time, to have a bite at the cherry again, is great.@ Cont. p3

Japanese Raiders Intriguing in World Cup... Japanese Horse of the Year Buena Vista (Jpn) (Special Week {Jpn}); Victoire Pisa (Jpn) (Neo Universe {Jpn}), who handed the champ a nose loss in the G1 Arima Kinen at Nakayama Dec. 26; and G1 Japan Cup Dirt and G1 February S. hero Transcend (Jpn) (Wild Rush) all appear in with a chance to hoist the Cup while uplifting their disaster-stricken homeland. Buena Vista, who was a close second in last year=s G1 Sheema Classic Buena Vista Horsephotos over the Meydan sod, has never been off the board in 17 prior attempts, and must only answer questions about the surface to be a major factor. AShe is very nice, and I am very happy to have a chance on riding her,@ said . AI cannot say how she handles all-weather until she comes in to the final stretch in the race. There are top-class horses in the field and any of them are capable of winning, but if she has a little luck and no one boxes her in, she should win, and I can confirm she has the talent to win. For the Japanese people, who are now having a difficult time, I would like to say that racing is my answer. What is going on

is very terrible, and I suppose could lift them.@

Third in the G1 Epsom Sheema. The British- Derby last June, the 500,000gns TATOCT purchase based Dangerous Midge captured the G2 Great Voltigeur S. at York in August, hasn=t faced the starter but could only manage sixth in the G1 St. Leger S. the since his Nov. 6 triumph following month, and at Churchill Downs, but has been brought along has a solid chance to since by trainer bring home another Mahmood Al Zarooni Sheema Classic trophy with this race in mind. for trainer Brian Meehan, Dangerous Midge (blinkers) defeating ARewilding is doing very who saddled David Junior well, and I think he will Champ Pegasus (Pleasant Tap) to victory Reed Palmer photo run a good race in 2006. AHe ran a great because he likes racing race in the Breeders= Cup and, after that, we thought when fresh,@ Al Zarooni about taking him to the Japan Cup before coming Rewilding commented. A[He] here,@ Meehan explained. www.godolphin.com progressed last year, but did not stay the Cont. p4 distance of the St Leger, which may have come too soon after his Great Voltigeur victory.

Rematch in Sheema cont. AIn the end, we decided to just come here and we gave him a break after America and started training him again before Christmas,@ Meehan said. AI think he can improve again, as he is still a lightly raced horse. He didn=t race as a 2-year-old, and I think he can keep improving as he is robust. He has been in great form at home, and being out here has brought him on again.@ He added, APlenty of people thought he was lucky in the Breeders= Cup, and I hope he can step up on it on Saturday and prove them wrong, as it pretty much looks his race.@ Champ Pegasus has had two afternoon appearances this season. He ran second to Bourbon Bay (Sligo Bay {Ire}) in the GII San Marcos S. Jan. 18, but turned the tables on that rival in the GII San Luis Obispo S. Feb. Bourbon Bay Michael Marten 19. AHe=s a feisty guy,@ trainer Richard Mandella told Racing Post. AHe=s mischievous and ornery. He=s like a little kid looking for trouble all the time, but he's a good-natured horse. He's got a good post in seven, as you=re not committed too far down inside, and it gives you a chance to see what happens. At a mile and a half I don=t think it makes a lot of difference where you start from, but, if I had a choice, this is the post I would have wanted."

Godolphin; de Kock Look Tough Again in Derby... Godolphin colorbearers or Mike de Kock trainees have taken every renewal of the G2 UAE Derby since it began in 2000, and this year=s running threatens to continue the trend. Of the field=s 14 runners, four will race in the Godolphin blue, while an additional three will be saddled by the top South African conditioner. Sheikh Mohammed=s operation boasts the morning-line favorite in the American pools in Xin Xu Lin (Brz) (Wondertross), thrice a Group 1 winner in Brazil and the G1 Gran Premio Carlos Pellegrini hero last out in Argentina Dec. 11. Piloted by first-call rider Frankie Dettori, this will be the Southern Hemisphere 3-year-old=s first attempt for Mahmood Al Zarooni and his new owner. AHe's a nice horse--a free-running type who likes to make the running--but he goes there first time out, and I think he'll be a nicer horse next winter,@ racing manager Simon Crisford told Racing Post. AHe comes with a big reputation, but it's not going to be easy for him. I can't tell you he's a good thing, because he's not. I do like him, but I'd like to reserve judgement.@ Godolphin also has G3 UAE 2000 Guineas winner Splash Point (Street Cry {Ire}), G3 UAE Oaks victoress Khawlah (Ire) (Cape Cross {Ire}), and turfy Meydan Classic winner Introvert (Ire) (Iffraaj {GB}). De Kock=s most intriguing entrant is Sheikh Mohammed bin Khalifa al Maktoum=s Reem (Aus) (Galileo {Ire}), who took the track-and-trip Al Bastakiya S. by 5 1/4 lengths Mar. 3. Mahbooba (Aus) (Galileo {Ire}), second in the UAE Oaks, and Zanzamar (SAf) (Fort Wood) complete the outfit=s charge. AThe two fillies probably stand out among mine,@ the South African told Racing Reem Andrew Watkins Post. AZanzamar's form is good, but, when Reem beat the colts, she showed us that the fillies are a lot stronger than the colts. The weight-for age (for Southern Hemisphere horses) is not what it was here, though, so it's getting far tougher every year, and Saeed's filly Khawlah was really smart to beat Today's topics: Mahbooba fair and square like she did in the UAE Oaks. California Here I Come, by Lucas Marquardt Mahbooba is a tough one, but we were giving Khawlah Arabian Nights, by Barry Weisbord nine pounds that day, and now we are giving Cheltenham: Spring, Guiness and Financial Promise, by 10 pounds.@ Tom Frary Kong Has Been King In Dubai, by Alan Carasso From Moonee Valley to Meydan, by Gary King Check out the new TDN blog at IT’S A BOY!
