TDN AMERICA TODAY Snowfall Would Be Favourite for This Based Solely on Her HASKELL THROWBACKS to the FUTURE Emphatic Success in York=S G3 Musidora S SATURDAY, JULY 17, 2021 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. The homebred prevailed in a pace duel with the race=s co-favorite and drew clear in the final furlong to a 4 1/2-length success.

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.

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.

His immediate pedigree has dirt and turf attributes.

  • Qatar Goodwood Festival
    Your complete guide to the QATAR GOODWOOD FESTIVAL Presented with the compliments of Introduction Welcome to the 2018 Qatar Goodwood Festival magazine presented by Timeform, which features previews and tips for all of the big races at the track this week. Staying events have always been a prominent feature of British Flat racing which, unlike some jurisdictions, offers a rich variety in the distances of races in the calendar. Much has been said over the years about the need to protect—and enhance—the programme of staying races in Britain, so when Weatherbys Hamilton announced earlier this year that a new bonus scheme for stayers worth £1 million was to be introduced this season, it was well received. The WH Stayers’ Million is on offer to any horse that wins one of four races in May—the Sagaro Stakes at Ascot, the Ormonde Stakes at Chester, the Yorkshire Cup at York or the Henry II Stakes at Sandown— before going on to claim victory in each of the Gold Cup at Royal Ascot, the Goodwood Cup and the Lonsdale Cup at York. The bonus prize has come along at just the right time for connections of last year’s Goodwood Cup winner Stradivarius, who is a short-priced favourite to retain his crown and move one step closer to landing the inaugural WH Stayers’ Million, having won the Yorkshire Cup and Gold Cup in his two previous starts this season. He will be without the services of regular pilot Frankie Dettori in the feature race on Tuesday, but Andrea Atzeni is an able deputy, having won both the Queen’s Vase and this race on him last season, and everything looks set fair for another big run.

So, it was only fitting that another filly carrying the colors of Barbara Banke's operation, Clairiere (Curlin), won that Horse of the Year's namesake Grade II race at the Fair Grounds Saturday. The event, which produced GI Kentucky Oaks winners in 2018 and 2019, offered 50 points towards this year's run for the lillies. Clairiere rallied strongly from well back to capture her 1 1/16-mile debut at Churchill Downs Oct. 25. She made another late run for the lead in that venue's GII Golden Rod S.
