BANISHMENT OF BRIBERY, EX-RACEHORSES AT THE HEART OF THERAPEUTIC VENTURE By Emma Berry BIDDING-UP KEY IN NEW For many people, the recent Panorama documentary which focused on the desperate plight of a handful of former BLOODSTOCK CODE racehorses ending up at an abattoir was distressing viewing. For many of us who work with racehorses, it also brought about a feeling of utter frustration. Frustration that a 30-minute programme which showed just one side of a story could potentially undo so much of the good work that has been done in aftercare for ex-racehorses for years. Frustration that some people who do very well out of owning and training racehorses still do not take the necessary steps when it comes to rehoming or, in some cases, euthanasia. There are plenty of wonderful examples of how we can help to have a useful second career--in eventing, showjumping, hunting, polo, or simply as a much-loved riding horse--and what is perhaps not emphasised enough is how they can help us.

Ex-Racehorses at the Heart of Therapeutic Venture cont. from p1 Nowhere is this more apparent than at Horseback UK in Scotland. Set among the heather and gorse-clad hills of rural Aberdeenshire, the charitable venture is a therapy centre with a difference. Here the 35 counsellors have four legs, some longer than others, and none so fleet of foot as the four former racehorses among the mixed equine herd. Set up 12 years ago by Jock and Emma Hutchison, Horseback UK was a response to Jock's experiences as a Royal Marine Commando and his desire to help some of his former colleagues who had left the military after tours of Afghanistan in less fortunate circumstances than himself, many with life-changing injuries.

From there, the Horseback UK course was suggested to try to help him regain some equilibrium after two suicide attempts. Loy later returned as a volunteer and loved the lifestyle in Aboyne so much he ended up working at Horseback UK full time.

Those five horses may be the obvious 3-year-old candidates THREE-YEAR-OLDS this spring, but history tells us that it is quite rare for Group 1-winning 2-year-olds to feature as elite winners again in the TO WATCH spring. Only one of the past 10 Golden Rose winners, The Autumn Sun, was a Group 1-winning juvenile. Extending that to the Caulfield Guineas, it is three of the past 10 winners, while in the Coolmore Stud S. it is one of the past 10 winners. That's not to discount the chances of an outstanding quintet winning the major races this spring but it does point to the need to cast our net a little wider when looking for the stars of spring.

Hilal (Fastnet Rock x Salma (Encosta De Lago)) Trainers: Michael, Wayne and John Hawkes Sex: colt Runner-up in both the G1 Champagne S. and the G1 Inglis Sires' last autumn, the Emirates Park-bred and owned colt looks the right profile of 3-year-old to step up through the spring. His lone victory in five starts came on debut in a Kensington maiden, and he quickly graduated to stakes grade with a second in the Anamoe and James McDonald | Bronwen Healy G2 Skyline S. Extending to the 1400 metres and then 1600 metres later in his campaign really seemed to suit and it is races by Bren O'Brien in that range which would appear very much in his scope. His The 2020/21 Australian season produced five different pedigree backs that up. winners from the five different Group 1 2-year-old races, leaving Team Hawkes are masters at getting these 3-year-olds to us with a host of very exciting horses to follow this spring.

We can expect him to be up AusNZ has looked deeper to find the emerging 3-year-olds and about relatively early in the spring based on the way he won which are most likely to make an impression throughout the a Rosehill trial last Friday. He sat just off the pace there and then spring. won comfortably. A look at the betting markets for both the G1 Golden Rose S. and the G1 Caulfield Guineas reveals the five horses who won Remarque (Snitzel x Response (Charge Forward)) those 2-year-old Group 1 races last season are expected to be Trainers: Michael, Wayne and John Hawkes the benchmarks of the spring. Sex: colt G1 Inglis Sires' winner Anamoe (Street Boss {USA}) tops the The brother to G1 Golden Slipper S., winner Estijaab, who is market for both races, while the colt that defeated him in the co-owned by his breeders at Arrowfield, and Katsumi Yoshida, G1 Golden Slipper S., Stay Inside (Extreme Choice), is currently only had two starts in his 2-year-old season, winning his maiden equal favourite for the Golden Rose. Converge (Frankel {GB}), so at Rosehill easily on debut and then finishing fifth in the G2 impressive in his victory in the G1 JJ Atkins S. in June, is also very Todman S. beaten only 2l by subsequent Group 1 winner highly regarded as too is the G1 Blue Diamond S. winner Anamoe. Artorius (Flying Artie) and the G1 Champagne winner Captivant He is another Team Hawkes-trained colt of immense potential (Capitalist). and he has looked very comfortable in winning both his trials All five are nominated for both 3-year-old features but both this time in, coming over the top of the leaders on both Stay Inside and Anamoe have been linked to possible campaigns occasions. He kicks off his spring campaign in the Listed Rosebud to The Everest, with the logical path then onwards to a race like S. at Randwick this Saturday and his performance will be closely the G1 Coolmore Stud S. watched with a view to how he can measure up this spring.

Sword Of State (Snitzel x In The Vanguard (Encosta De Lago)) He is an exceptionally fast horse and with that in mind, Price Trainer: Jamie Richards and Kent Jnr have not nominated him for either the Golden Rose Sex: colt or the Caulfield Guineas. The likely target will be a race like the The son of Snitzel, co-owned by Te Akau Racing and Cambridge G1 Moir S., a race Price won with Extreme Choice as a Stud, was clearly the dominant 2-year-old of the New Zealand 3-year-old, with the Coolmore Stud S. a next obvious step, racing season, winning four of his five starts, including a brilliant although The Everest can not be ruled out either. 3.5l victory in the G1 Sistema S. Consideration was made to bringing him to Sydney for the G1 Golden Slipper S. but those Alpine Edge (Better Than Ready x Freezethemillions (Freeze)) plans were shelved and the focus has been very much on the Trainers: Toby and Trent Edmonds spring since that point.

That looks to have been the right move, with the colt Profiteer (Capitalist x Athena Lass (Snitzel)) bouncing off a couple of trial wins before his fast-finishing Trainers: Mick Price and Michael Kent Jnr victory at Eagle Farm. He is likely to go to the G3 Ming Dynasty Sex: colt Quality on August 28 then tackle the G2 Run To The Rose S. and then the Golden Rose S. The Caulfield Guineas is another target race, with connections confident that he is a horse that will prosper at the 1600 metres.

Argentia (Frankel (GB) x Princess (Encosta De Lago)) Trainers: Anthony and Sam Freedman Sex: filly With the impact Frankel's (GB) progeny have made in Australia through the likes of Group 1 winners Hungry Heart and Converge in the first half of 2021, it was little wonder Argentia caught the eye with her excellent win in an off-season 2-year-old race at Flemington in June. Anthony and Sam Freedman gave her just the one 2-year-old start, and it was all we needed to see to know she is a filly of considerable potential as she powered home from off the pace to win by a clear Profiteer | Bronwen Healy margin. She holds nominations for the Golden Rose S., the Caulfield Profiteer produced one of the better 2-year-old performances Guineas, the Thousand Guineas and the G1 Cox Plate, and it will of last season when he blitzed his rivals to win by 5.3l in the R. be fascinating to see what path she ends up taking.

Sam Todman S. before trying to lead all the way in the Golden Slipper Freedman has suggested a shortish spring campaign, starting S. which was run on an unsuitably wet track.

She holds nominations for the G1 Golden Rose S. and the G1 Thousand Guineas, but hasn't been seen at the trials yet. It wouldn't surprise, given her pedigree, to see her targeted towards sprint races.

Ingratiating (Frosted (USA) x Obsequious (Lonhro)) Trainer: James Cummings Sex: colt Ingratiating proved one of the most consistent 2-year-olds of last season, winning a Listed race on debut and then the Listed Talindert S. in the autumn before placing in both the Blue Diamond S. and the Golden Slipper S. While he has yet to get beyond 1200 metres in his racing career, he holds nominations for both the Golden Rose S. and the Caulfield Guineas. He has had a couple of trials this time in already, one at Hawkesbury and one at Wyong, and was ridden off the pace in The very flashy In the Congo as a yearling | Inglis photo both, and allowed to close out well.

MORE THAN READY, LOOKING TO FOLLOW UP ON MEMORABLE 2019 SARATOGA SUCCESS IT'S PLETCHER'S TIME by Jessica Martini The last time the Fasig-Tipton Saratoga Selected Yearlings Sale was held, Curlin recorded a memorable trifecta with the auction's top three seven-figure yearlings. Leading the way was the $1.5-million co-topper First Captain, who was tabbed a 'TDN Rising Star' and captured the GIII Dwyer S. The Hill 'n' Dale stallion will be represented by five yearlings when bidding returns to the Humphrey S. Finney pavilion in upstate New York next week. "Curlin is truly a Classic sire," said Mark Taylor of Taylor Made Sales Agency, which will consign two fillies by the stallion during the two-day boutique sale. "He can come up with a good 2-year-old, but when I think Curlin, I am thinking about big-time route races." Cont. p7

Pletcher, 54, will be formally inducted during the annual Hall of Fame ceremony Friday morning at Fasig-Tipton's Humphrey S. Finney Sales Pavilion.

Curlin's success at Fasig-Tipton cont. from p1

First Captain selling at Saratoga in 2019 | Fasig-Tipton The first of Taylor Made's offerings by Curlin is hip 63, a daughter of Classofsixtythree (Include) and a half-sister to graded stakes winner and Grade I placed Gunmetal Gray (Exchange Rate). "This filly has grown up on Taylor Made and I have always loved her," Taylor said. "She is a May foal and is only scratching the surface of what she will be in time. This filly is out of an Include mare and is a half-sister to Gunmetal Gray, who was a Grade I-placed 2-year-old and a top-tier 3-year-old a few years back. This filly looks like she will be a Classic two-turn filly. She=s a very nice Curlin." Also from the Taylor Made consignment is hip 181, a daughter of Curlin whose dam Rose Garden (Pioneerof the Nile) is a half-sister to GI Preakness S. winner , also by Curlin. "This filly is a late April foal," Taylor said. "She has a ton of size and strength. For anyone trying to find an Oaks type 3-year-old, she will hit their radar. Her dam is a half-sister to Exaggerator, so Curlin has already produced a Classic winner from this immediate family. She was born and raised at Twin Creeks Farm. They have produced a bunch of classy horses over the years, including Tiz The Law last year." Taylor Made is no stranger to dealing with talented daughters of Curlin. "We have sold some talented Curlin fillies in the past," Taylor said. "The one who jumps out at me as the prototype of what I think Curlin produces is Grade II winner Point of Honor. She had strength, scope and balance. She ran to those looks and has just come up short at the Grade I level. Spice Is Nice is another beautiful Curlin filly. We did not sell her, but she was rehabbed with us for a few months. She had the same qualities as Point of Honor--just beautiful fillies."

COURTNEY JOINS WRITERS' ROOM FOR IRISH SHIPPER CADILLAC, SARATOGA IS A PERFECT FIT by Bill Finley With their horse coming off a win in a Group 3 stakes race, the connections of Cadillac (Ire) (Lope de Vega {Ire}) could have easily pointed their horse to some of the major stakes remaining on the European calendar. Instead, the 3-year-old colt will be in Saratoga Saturday for the GI Saratoga Derby Invitational. With so many lucrative opportunities available, it is growing increasingly difficult for European stables to ignore a stakes schedule laden with rich, winnable races. "This is a very valuable race, it's a Grade I and it fit into Cadillac's program," said Richie Galway, the racing manager for trainer Jessica Harrington. "He was obviously there at the Breeders' Cup in November, so we know that he travels. The One of the stars of the successful New York Racing Association American turf program is becoming more popular with and Fox Sports daily broadcast from Saratoga, Acacia Courtney European trainers and it is improving all the time.

After the Breeders' Cup, Cadillac was given a break and made his 3-year-old debut in the G3 ARM Holding International S. at The Curragh, which he won by a nose. Galway said that after that win, the option that made the most sense was to come to Saratoga. "It's not that we are passing any races in Europe," he said. "It's more that this race is an ideal opportunity for him to run against his own age group. It's a good opportunity to put Cadillac in the shop window in Saratoga." Though it sometimes seems that European grass horses are better than American grass runners, Galway understands that the Saratoga Derby will be anything but an easy spot. "As we saw in his last race, he's a tough and tenacious horse," Galway said. "This will be his toughest task to date. It looks like a Cadillac prior to last fall's Breeders' Cup | Coady very deep race. No matter where you run when you run for $1 million in a Group 1, whether it's Ireland, the UK or the U.S. Cont. or anywhere else, you're going to be taking on some serious "Cadillac is Alpha's flagship horse," Galway said.

His win streak ended during Wednesday's program he had partnerships, and Harrington took advantage of what she saw as a third and a fourth with his starters. an opportunity. Alpha Racing was born. "Partnerships and syndications are becoming the most popular form of horse ownership," Galway said. "In Ireland, we were slower to catch on to. We developed Alpha from that concept. It allows people the opportunity to get involved in horse ownership at a relatively modest investment level with the potential of landing on a superstar. We spread the risk and give the partners lots of action. It is really about spreading the risk, trying to be commercial about how we run the partnership and having a lot of fun along the way. When you buy a yearling at a modest level like that, it's hard to imagine you could end up running at Saratoga in a $1 million race at an iconic track, going there with a chance. We are hugely excited. Cadillac has proven those horses are out there, if you're willing to spread your risk and buy some horses."
