ADoncaster have had more than 12 millimeters of rain this week, so inevitably the ground will be slow, so we have decided to run Chief Barker and not Toormore, who will now be put away until next year, when he will have a Guineas preparation,@ Hannon explained. AToormore is all class but his speed would be blunted by soft ground, whereas Chief Barker, a good horse in his own right, is more the grinder, so arguably better suited to the testing conditions.@ Field p6 In This Issue Weisbord Receives Galbreath Award 60 Broad St., Suite 100 Red Bank, NJ 07701 TDN President and co-publisher Barry (732) 747-8060 Weisbord graciously accepted the John W.

Galbreath Award for Entrepreneurship by the University of Louisville=s Equine Industry Program Thursday night. The award was presented at an intimate dinner held at the University Club at Louisville that was hosted by Tim Capps, director of the Equine Industry Program. The Galbreath award, named after the renowned businessman, sportsman and philanthropist who founded Darby Dan Farm in Kentucky, is given to a person who has achieved entrepreneurial excellence, with criteria including success in business, creativity, vision, risk-taking, and the respect of peers and associates. Students from the program attended the event, and were offered Weisbord=s 10 Commandments of business, which began with, AYou shall always be as prepared as possible,@ and concluded with, AYou shall always remember your word is your bond. Do what you say you will do.@ Weisbord gave a brief overview of his career, stretching back to when he was a junior in college and, along with his friend Alan Goldberg, got a summer job walking hots for trainer Walter Kelley at Aqueduct. AAt the time, I was just a fan of Thoroughbred racing,@ said Weisbord. ASince that day, I have never left the horse industry. I have never applied for a job. I have never drafted a resume.@ Weisbord went on to train briefly--he ultimately relinquished those duties to Goldberg--before founding the bloodstock portfolio management company Executive Bloodstock in 1979. In the 1980s, he helped found Matchmaker Breeders= Exchange, which facilitated the sale of stallion seasons and shares. AI expanded Matchmaker from a yearly auction to a weekly exchange with my partner Johnny Jones III, and we filled an office with co-workers who shared our vision, loved the horse business, and worked harder than people in Lexington were used to working,@ said Weisbord, who laughed, AThey answered the phone at 6:00 at night, when those sort of hours were unheard of.@ Tim Capps presents the Galbreath Award Lucas Marquardt 859-873-7270 • www.airdriestud.com TDN P HEADLINE NEWS • 10/26/13 • PAGE 4 of 14 • thoroughbreddailynews.com Galbreath Award cont. He added, AIt's great to see people go on to fruitful careers after they leave your employ, and I'm proud that a number of people from that staff went on to assume major industry positions. They include Darley's Charlie Boden, Claiborne's Bernie Sams, your own Tim Capps and Highclere's Harry Herbert, all of which went on to outstanding careers.@ Weisbord later helped establish the American Championship Racing Series, and is currently the chairman of Trakus, the data and graphics system that tracks individual horses through a race. He also sits on the Breeders= Cup board of directors, and co-chairs its Enhanced Experience committee.

WEST COAST Flatter – Caressing by Honour and Glory 2014 Bay l 16.2 Hands “An Eclipse Award winning champion, West Coast is by an outstanding sire son of A.P. Indy, out of a ChampionTwo-Year-Old Filly. West Coast earned a title as Champion Three-Year-Old Colt with five consecutive victories, four in stakes events, and ran 1-2-3 in six consecutive grade one events, including when capturing the Travers Stakes (G1) and Pennsylvania Derby (G1). He is by Flatter, a leading stallion son of A.P. Indy, and sire of more than 50 stakes winners, and out of Caressing, Champion and Breeders’ Cup (G1) winner at two.“ The offspring of West Coast will be free of Northern Dancer at four generations on their sire’s side, and Flatter has crossed well with a wide variety of broodmare sires from that line. The cross with mares from the Danzig branch of Northern Dancer has been particulary productive with seven stakes winners, including graded stakes winners Classic Point and Mad Flatter out of mares by Langfuhr and Honor Grades (who gives inbreeding to the dam of A.P. Indy), and there are also stakes winners out of mares by War Front – who appears particularly interesting here, giving inbreeding to Relaunch and a full-sister – Danzig Connection, Ghazi and Military (who would be intriguing here).

  • Bulletin Book Extracts
    Bulletin Book Extracts Continuity with the Dark Horses Annual … In my Dark Horses Guide I made out a case for Nichols Canyon, now the winner of seven of his 10 starts over hurdles. A genuine and classy performer for John Gosden on the Flat, with two Listed victories and a Group 3 placing to his name, he landed four Grade 1 races as a novice last season without getting the credit he deserved. This season he became the first horse to beat Faugheen, where the close proximity of Wicklow Brave in third suggests the favourite underperformed, before winning his sixth Grade 1 race when beating Identity Thief in the Ryanair Hurdle at Leopardstown over Christmas. Nichols Canyon ran the worst race of his career just under a month later when he trailed home 28 lengths third to Faugheen and Arctic Fire in the Irish Champion Hurdle, possibly feeling the effects of his tussle with Identity Thief in the heavy ground. Nichols Canyon’s greatest asset is his tenacity. He is not the sort of horse ever to win on the bridle, but he handles any ground and has strong winning form over two and a half miles – always an asset in the Champion Hurdle. Willie Mullins says the horse reminds him of Hurricane Fly – a great compliment - and there is a case for saying he has the best overall form in the race, even though the ratings suggest otherwise. Strong Opinions … I have no doubt that My Tent Or Yours is one of the most talented horses Nicky Henderson has ever trained.

The Irish Champion is one of three Challenge races at Leopardstown and highlights a weekend that features 10 total “Win and You’re In” races, including the prestigious Ricoh Woodbine Mile (GI) Sunday. A rainy forecast for Friday has caused Leopardstown officials to move the Irish Champion to the outside course, and to start Saturday’s race about one hour earlier in the program. The connections of both Coolmore’s Gleneagles and Anthony Oppenheimer’s Golden Horn, the pair of 3-year-old standouts are expected to meet in the 1 ¼-mile race after the latter withdrew from a potential clash in the “Win and You’re In” Juddmonte International (GI) at York August 19 due to the soft turf.

Sunday at Del Mar. The 4-year-old completed the Crosby=s six furlongs in 1:07.65, just .05 seconds off the track=s 43-year-old record for the distance. Off as the even-money choice, Lord Nelson sat third, two to three lengths off a blazing :21.16 quarter-mile set by joint leaders Justin Squared (Zensational) and Subtle Indian (Indian Charlie). Moving to tackle the leaders under Flavien Prat on the latter half of the turn, Lord Nelson opened clear in the straightaway and bounded home by four lengths, nearly matching the track record of King of Cricket (Coursing), set back in 1973. Lord Nelson's time established a stakes record for the Crosby, eclipsing the 54-year-old record of 1:07.80 set by Crazy Kid, which at the time was a world's record.

  • Studies in Early Mediterranean Poetics and Cosmology
    The Ruins of Paradise: Studies in Early Mediterranean Poetics and Cosmology by Matthew M. Newman A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Classical Studies) in the University of Michigan 2015 Doctoral Committee: Professor Richard Janko, Chair Professor Sara L. Ahbel-Rappe Professor Gary M. Beckman Associate Professor Benjamin W. Fortson Professor Ruth S. Scodel Bind us in time, O Seasons clear, and awe. O minstrel galleons of Carib fire, Bequeath us to no earthly shore until Is answered in the vortex of our grave The seal’s wide spindrift gaze toward paradise. (from Hart Crane’s Voyages, II) For Mom and Dad ii Acknowledgments I fear that what follows this preface will appear quite like one of the disorderly monsters it investigates. But should you find anything in this work compelling on account of its being lucid, know that I am not responsible. Not long ago, you see, I was brought up on charges of obscurantisme, although the only “terroristic” aspects of it were self- directed—“Vous avez mal compris; vous êtes idiot.”1 But I’ve been rehabilitated, or perhaps, like Aphrodite in Iliad 5 (if you buy my reading), habilitated for the first time, to the joys of clearer prose. My committee is responsible for this, especially my chair Richard Janko and he who first intervened, Benjamin Fortson. I thank them. If something in here should appear refined, again this is likely owing to the good taste of my committee. And if something should appear peculiarly sensitive, empathic even, then it was the humanity of my committee that enabled, or at least amplified, this, too.
