2:40 P.M. HK TIME (2.10.2011) Sprinters Stakes (Group 1) S1-1 3:40 P.M. LOCAL TIME 7th Leg of Global Sprint Challenge (2.10.2011) Nakayama Racecourse - Turf Track - 1200 Metres (Right-handed) For 3 years old and upwards. Weights: 3yo 121lb; 4yo+ 126lb. Allowances: fillies and mares about 4.4lb; Southern Hemisphere bred foaled in 2008 about 2.2lb. Total Prize Money (JPY) ¥197,600,000 1st ¥95,000,000, 2nd ¥38,000,000, 3rd ¥24,000,000, 4th ¥14,000,000, 5th ¥9,500,000, 6th ¥6,650,000, 7th ¥5,700,000, 8th ¥4,750,000. (16 Starters) Overseas Expert Column by Naohiro Goda Both LUCKY NINE and GREEN BIRDIE ran as well as I expected in the G2 Centaur Stakes at Hanshin on 11 September. Both came out of the race well and moved from Hanshin to Nakayama Racecourse on 14 September. It was an uneventful trip even though it took nine hours and five minutes by horse van, and they have settled very well in the barn area at Nakayama Racecourse. LUCKY NINE, second in the Centaur Stakes, and GREEN BIRDIE, who was demoted from 4th in the same race to 14th in the stewards’ room, were lightly breezed for 800m on the grass course at Nakayama on 23 September. They were given another breeze on the same course on 27 September. Both Hong Kong raiders look to be happy and are enjoying their time in Japan, and I believe they are ready to produce their best form on 2 October. -

Feature Presentation • Gi Bmw Champions Mile
TUESDAY, APRIL 26, 2011 For information about TDN, call 732-747-8060. NO DECISION ON THE FACTOR FEATURE PRESENTATION • GI BMW CHAMPIONS MILE Trainer Bob Baffert said Monday morning that a decision as to the GI Kentucky Derby status of The Factor (War Front) is still up in the air. But he revealed that the colt did have minor throat surgery after his disappointing seventh-place finish in the Apr. 16 GI Arkansas Derby. The 3-year-old entrapped during the race at Oaklawn. AIt was bad,@ Baffert said. AHe was gurgling.@ The surgery could help alleviate the problem. AIt has some success,@ Baffert said. ‘TENSION BREAKER IN CHAMPIONS MILE But he added that the way The Factor is Twice placed in prestigious local events at Sha Tin in ridden will have a much bigger effect on the recent months, including a close-up second in the Hong outcome of his next race. Jockey Martin The Factor Kong Derby last out Feb. 20, the 4-year-old Xtension Garcia was forced to take a stranglehold in Reed Palmer (Ire) (Xaar {GB}) finally found the line first in a well- traffic and off hot fractions in Arkansas. AYou deserved tally in just can=t grab him like that,@ Baffert said.
