THIS SIDE UP: HASKELL PRACTICAL JOKE RISING STAR TO BEAT IN SANFORD by Joe Bianca THROWBACKS TO Reflective of a murky early-season 2-year-old male pecking order, a full dozen will line up in Saturday=s GIII Sanford S. at THE FUTURE Saratoga, with >TDN Rising Star= Wit (Practical Joke) expected to go favored from the rail. Easily the most expensive of 88 yearlings to sell from his freshman sire in 2020 when hammering for $575,000 at Keeneland September, the dark bay was hammered down to 45 cents on the dollar debuting June 5 at Belmont only to break last. That was no matter though, as the Todd Pletcher trainee advanced strongly while wide on the turn, swept to the front in mid-stretch and burst clear to a six-length romp. Mueller Thoroughbred Stable=s Candy Landing (Twirling Candy), the second choice on the morning line, won like he was odds-on debuting as a 17-1 shot June 11 at Churchill.

So the big question is whether the out-of-town jocks, in the Click or tap here to go straight to TDN Europe. heat of a $1-million battle for the GI TVG.com Haskell S., can master the instinct to reach for the whip? If any lifelong flagellants are anxious of their self-discipline, then they need only play back the 1988 running and remind themselves how Laffit Pincay, Jr. coaxed Forty Niner home, in withering heat, by a nose from Seeking the Gold. The whip is unsheathed, for sure, but so seamlessly with the horse's own efforts that the overall effect is like watching St. Francis of Assisi helping a fledgling back into its nest. If only wider standards of horsemanship had maintained similar levels of empathy, then our house might never have become so divided against itself. As it stands, any hope that people might someday look back at Saturday's race after an equivalent interval of years may depend on the outcome of the experiment being boldly embraced this year, in defiance of some aggressive lobbying, by the New Jersey Racing Commission.

Like it or not, a first Grade I race without recourse to the whip feels like a big moment in the story of the American Turf. Our community has to remember two things. One is that we tend to be inured to the shock experienced by the layman who comes fresh to the ugly coercions of cruder riders. And the other, closely related, is that public policy in these matters will always be driven by mass perception, rather than any informed mitigations grasped by those inside the business. As one leading driver has wisely acknowledged of harness racing: "It doesn't matter if it's real or perceived. In our game, once it's perceived, it becomes real." As it happens, pretty much the same might be said of the damage done to our sport by the charges against the Derby winner, which loom over the Haskell even in the absence of a trainer who last year won it for a record ninth time. For these leave the Derby runner-up Mandaloun (Into Mischief) striving awkwardly to live up to his potential promotion, and the burden of the accompanying asterisk; while Following Sea (Runhappy) has meanwhile defected from Bob Baffert's barn after Spendthrift "hit the pause button" on their association.

Mandaloun gallops at Monmouth Wednesday | Bill Denver/Equi-Photo Whatever the ultimate determination of due process, in this particular instance, overall it seems fair to ask Baffert to understand that you can't push regulatory boundaries without doing the same to public confidence.

Trying a second turn against elite opposition will certainly tell us what substance may underpin IN HASKELL the dazzling style of Following Sea, but many neutrals will be hoping for a merited Grade I success for Hot Rod Charlie (Oxbow).

Perhaps the sport might have been spared much of its present embarrassment if he had been ridden with similar aggression in the Derby, instead of gifting control to Medina Spirit (Protonico), but the notion that he can eyeball a rival even better without blinkers (as well as without the whip) looks an intriguing gamble. However things play out between them, the fact that all three of the Triple Crown protagonists converging here completed their springtime preparations in the GII Louisiana Derby means Hot Rod Charlie at Monmouth | Bill Denver/EQUI-PHOTO that there is already one guaranteed winner.

BREEDERS= CUP AIM FOR LAWS OF INDICES BLIZZARD CONDITIONS IN The GI Breeders= Cup Mile at Del Mar on Nov. 6 is on the long- HIGH SUMMER term radar for Laws Of Indices (Ire) (Power {GB}), who earned a first Group 1 win in last weekend=s G1 Prix Jean Prat at Deauville. Trainer Ken Condon, however, has his sights set first on a return trip to Deauville for the G1 Prix Maurice de Gheest next month and the G1 Prix de la Foret on Oct 3 for the i8,000 Goffs Autumn yearling graduate. AThe Maurice de Gheest is on Aug. 8,@ said Condon. AIt=s four weeks between both races. We=ll see how he is in the next 10 days but that=s where he could go next. Longer term, I=d say the Prix de la Foret on Arc weekend is the main target. I think seven furlongs is his optimum trip. If he does go to the Maurice de Gheest, I could see him having a little break and waiting for that race on Arc day. He=d have all the credentials you=d need to run in a Breeders= Cup Mile as well so that could also be the Snowfall winning the Oaks under Frankie Dettori | racingfotos.com possibility but I=m sure the Foret is the prime target now. AThe owners are very brave. Their ambition has been By Tom Frary rewarded.
