Latest Star Shows Turf Legend Undervalued In WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 27, 2019 LATEST STAR SHOWS TURF LATE-BLOOMING RATAJKOWSKI TAKES NEXT STEP IN FALLS CITY LEGEND UNDERVALUED IN By Christie DeBernardis The long-legged Ratajkowski (Drosselmeyer)--appropriately EUROPE TOO named after model and actress Emily Ratajkowski--has been an exercise in patience for her connections, but has proven worth the wait. Winning four of six starts since coming onto the scene this year at age five, the Empire-bred looks to take her career to the next level on Thanksgiving in the GII Falls City H. at Churchill Downs. AShe has been a pleasant surprise,@ said trainer Brian Lynch. AShe is 17-odd hands, so she is a very, very big filly. She was slow to come around and had a couple of little minor hiccups as a two and 3-years-old. She got pushed back a bit further as a 4-year- old, but she always showed that she had a fair share of talent. The guys were patient enough with her and she has been a pleasant surprise as a 5-year-old.@ Cont. p7 Kitten's Joy | Sarah Andrew IN TDN EUROPE TODAY PAT SMULLEN: O’BRIEN ONLY GETTING BETTER by Chris McGrath In this week’s column, famed jockey Pat Smullen reflects on It's hard to know quite what Kitten's Joy has to do in order to the success and early retirement of top rider Donnacha gain a commercial standing commensurate with his O’Brien. Click or tap here to go straight to TDN Europe. achievements. As it is, the champion North American sire of 2018 once again proved unable to crack the top 30 sires ranked by the average value of their yearlings in 2019. Not that he should take it personally. We all know that the American industry talks a good game about the growing importance of the turf program, but won't follow through when young stallions as well-bred and accomplished as Flintshire (GB) or Karakontie (Jpn) are imported; or even when Noble Mission (GB) manages to produce GI Runhappy Travers S. winner Code of Honor from his very first crop. Old habits die hard, I guess, despite the American sport's agonized quest for surfaces that are easier on horses' legs. True, there are also dirt stallions whose stock seems to be perennially undervalued at the sales. But what I find barely less culpable than domestic neglect of Kitten's Joy is the failure of so many European prospectors to recognise and exploit the resulting opportunity. So many, but not all. Step forward David Redvers, who showed what Kitten's Joy can do in Europe when picking out a champion for $160,000 at the Keeneland September Sale of 2016.

  • Ulysses Late Dash for Glory in Saturday's King George VI & Queen
    Ascot Racecourse Media Release for immediate release, Tuesday, July 25, 2017 Ulysses late dash for glory in Saturday's King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes (Sponsored by QIPCO) Ulysses, who re-opposes his G1 Prince of Wales's Stakes conqueror Highland Reel in the King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes (Sponsored by QIPCO), will be held up as long as possible in a bid to reverse the placings at Ascot on Saturday, July 29. Alan Cooper, racing manager to the Niarchos Family which owns Ulysses, said today: "In the Prince Of Wales's Stakes, maybe Ulysses thought job done when he hit the front, and we had to hold him up a bit more. "Jim Crowley did that when Ulysses won the Eclipse but even then he said to me 'I would have liked to have been more patient'. "As a horse matures, you learn more about him and what tactics he is comfortable with. A daring ride is the way it looks like." This was revealed today when QIPCO and Ascot Racecourse hosted a media event this afternoon ahead of the 2017 King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes (Sponsored by QIPCO), which is Britain's premier all-aged middle-distance contest and boasts a prize fund of £1.15-million. Ulysses is out to give trainer Sir Michael Stoute an unprecedented sixth win in the Ascot race, with his previous success coming with runaway winner Harbinger in 2010. It was Ulysses who provided Stoute with his sixth G1 Eclipse Stakes earlier this month when beating Barney Roy by a nose.
