SATURDAY, MAY 19, 2018 JUSTIFY VERSUS THE TOTE FRIDAY=S PREAKNESS REPORT: EARLY MORNING GALLOP FOR JUSTIFY IN PREAKNESS 143? by Steve Sherack BALTIMORE, MD B Taking no chances with more wet weather on its way Friday, Hall of Fame trainer Bob Baffert sent out his unbeaten GI Kentucky Derby winner and >TDN Rising Star= Justify (Scat Daddy) to train in the dark shortly before daybreak at soggy Pimlico at 5:30 a.m. Owned in partnership by WinStar Farm, China Horse Club, Head of Plains Partners and Starlight Racing, Justify continues to show all the right signs since arriving in Baltimore, turning in another spirited and controlled gallop of 1 1/2 miles over the sloppy going. The strapping chestnut is the 1-2 morning-line favorite for Saturday=s 143rd renewal of the GI Preakness S. Cont. p3 (click here) Justify will be heavily favored to become the seventh IN TDN EUROPE TODAY Derby/Preakness winner since 2004 | Horsephotos EASY CUP RETURN FOR STRADIVARIUS Stradivarius (Ire) (Sea The Stars {Ire}) is set for another tilt at By Alan Carasso the Gold Cup at Royal Ascot after winning Friday’s Sure, the connections of seven other horses--a trio of also-rans G2 Yorkshire Cup. Click or tap here to go straight to TDN from the GI Kentucky Derby and four new shooters--were willing Europe. to oppose >TDN Rising Star= Justify (Scat Daddy) in the 143rd running of the GI Preakness S. at Pimlico Race Course. But come 6:48 p.m. Eastern time late Saturday afternoon, the infield tote board will suggest that the 9 1/2-furlong test is strictly a one-horse affair. So just how low will Justify go--pari-mutuelly speaking? While 2016 Derby hero Always Dreaming (Bodemeister) was off at 6-5 en route to an eighth-place effort behind Cloud Computing (Maclean=s Music) last year at Old Hilltop, the previous four Derby winners were each backed into long odds- on favoritism, though two of those ultimately proved to be money burners. Nyquist (Uncle Mo) was bet down to 7-10 in 2016, but Exaggerator (Curlin) took advantage of his superior wet-track form en route to a 3 1/2-length victory as the favorite weakened to third. Many would forget that future Triple Crown hero American Pharoah (Pioneerof the Nile) returned a seemingly generous $3.80 in powering home through the off going to score by seven lengths in 2015, while at 1-2, California Chrome (Lucky Pulpit) ranks as the most heavily backed Derby winner since Big Brown (Boundary) sailed home at 1-5 in 2008.

Excepting the ill-fated Barbaro a dozen years ago, other Derby winners rolled at odds-on in the Preakness over the last 3 1/2 decades include Fusaichi Pegasus (second to Red Bullet at 3-10 in 2000); Easy Goer (runner-up at 3-5 to Sunday Silence in the epic 1989 Preakness); Swale (seventh to Gate Dancer in 1984 at 4-5); and Linkage (second to Aloma=s Ruler as the 1-2 chalk in 1982). Heavily favored though he will be, Justify is not likely to attract the same support as Count Fleet (1943), Citation (1948), Native Dancer (1953), Nashua (1955) or Secretariat (1973), each of whom won the Preakness at odds of 3-10 or less, and in the case of Count Fleet, 15 cents on the dollar when taking home the middle leg by eight lengths en route to that year=s Triple Crown. His price will be too skinny for many to swallow Saturday afternoon, but barring an upset, Justify should be able to continue his assault on the 2018 Triple Crown.

Brisset briefly had Justify in his shedrow at Keeneland last fall before he shipped out to join Baffert=s stable in Southern California.

    Drug Education and Its Publics in 1980S Britain

    International Journal of Drug Policy 88 (2021) 103029 Contents lists available at ScienceDirect International Journal of Drug Policy journal homepage: www.elsevier.com/locate/drugpo Policy Analysis Just say know: Drug education and its publics in 1980s Britain Alex Mold Centre for History in Public Health, London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine, 15-17 Tavistock Place, London, WC1H 9SH, United Kingdom ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT Keywords: Until the 1980s, anti-drug education campaigns in the UK were rare. This article examines the reasons behind a Heroin policy shift that led to the introduction of mass media drug education in the mid 1980s. It focuses on two Drug education campaigns. ‘Heroin Screws You Up’ ran in England, and ‘Choose Life Not Drugs’ ran in Scotland. The campaigns Health education were different in tone, with ‘Heroin Screws You Up’ making use of fear and ‘shock horror’ tactics, whereas History of drug use ‘Choose Life Not Drugs’ attempted to deliver a more positive health message. ‘Heroin Screws You Up’ was criticised by many experts for its stigmatising approach. ‘Choose Life Not Drugs’ was more favourably received, but both campaigns ran into difficulties with the wider public. The messages of these campaigns were appro­ priated and deliberately subverted by some audiences. This historical policy analysis points towards a complex and nuanced relationship between drug education campaigns and their audiences, which raises wider questions about health education and its ‘publics’. In April 1986, the cast of teen TV soap, Grange Hill, released a song wanted to be seen to take action on drugs, leading to the introduction of titled ‘Just say no’.

  • Race Distance

    Race Distance

    odern horse racing in Japan had its beginnings in racing events that were organized by foreign residents of Yokohama in 1862. In 1861, when Japan was about to move from the feudal system into the Meiji Restoration, foreign residents living in Yokohama, predominantly British, introduced the first Western-style horse racing by establishing the Yokohama Race Club to Japan. Western style horse racing was held in foreign enclaves, and hence, unfortunately, very little is known or recorded about initial era in Japan’s modern horse racing history. At about the same time that the name of the Japanese central city was changed from Edo to Tokyo, Western-style horse racing began to be found in the major metropolitan cities across the country. In 1906, the government embarked on a policy which tacitly allowed to bet. This led to the introduction of modern horse racing featuring sales of betting tickets in Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka and other metropolitan cities, from which most racing operations benefited. However, this profitable system was short lived; two years later, the government prohibited betting and instituted a system of paying direct subsidies for prize money and other horse racing expenses. During this subsequent period of government-subsidized horse racing, prominent legislators, businessmen, as well as breeders, began active efforts to introduce a horse racing law. Eventually the government began to take proactive position to promote horse racing in order to expand breeding in Japan and to improve quality of the Japanese horses. In 1923, horse racing legislation, so greatly desired by the horse racing industry, was enacted and led to the formation of 11 racing clubs.
