>JACK= BE NIMBLE IN SPLASHY WITH , GLENNWOOD HAS ANOTHER DAZZLING PROSPECT by Bill Finley SOUTHWEST SCORE The father-daughter team of John and Tanya Gunther, who operate Glennwood Farm, only own about 20 mares. Anyone can get lucky with those kind of numbers and produce an occasional good horse. But this many good horses? Glennwood's hot streak continued Sunday at Santa Anita when Justify (Scat Daddy) broke his maiden in his debut by 9 1/2 lengths while earning a Beyer figure of 104 and >TDN Rising Stardom.= Trainer was so impressed that he said afterwards he will point the colt to the GI , even though the race is less than 11 weeks away.

Glennwood/Justify cont. from p1

Justify | Benoit Photo The Gunthers are also the breeders of (Curlin), a good third in the GIII Sam F. Davis S. at Tampa Bay and the co-breeders of Mo Town (Uncle Mo), winner of last year=s GI . They're making their mark overseas as well. They are the co-breeders of On the Warpath (GB) (Declaration of War), a two-time winner in England who, according to Tanya Gunther, was recently purchased by Darley in order to campaign in Dubai. Then there's Without Parole (GB) (Frankel {GB}). They own and bred the colt who romped in his debut in December for John Gosden at Newcastle. He has been nominated to most of the 2018 European Classics. Over the years they have also bred Grade I winners Tamarkuz (Speightstown), (), First Samurai (Giant's Causeway), Stevie Wonderboy (Stephen Got Even) and Materiality (Afleet Alex). "The last several years I have to give credit to my daughter," John Gunther said. "She was in investment banking in London for 10 years, so she is very analytical and she puts a lot of stats together. After 10 years of investment banking, she wanted to pursue her passion, which was horses, and she left London and went to Kentucky and managed the farm. She's very hands on and very analytical. She gets on to some of these stallions and she studies and studies pedigrees, going back several generations." Tanya gives credit to her father for finding mares, some of which did not cost a lot of money, that keep producing quality horses. After Justify was purchased by WinStar Farm LLC, China Horse Club and SF Racing LLC for $500,000 at Keeneland September, Gunther said he heard little about the colt. He did catch video of some of his workouts and was impressed. Cont. p6 TDN HEADLINE NEWS • PAGE 6 OF 13 • THETDN.COM TUESDAY • FEBRUARY 20, 2018

Combining the works and his remembrances of what kind of prospect Justify seemed to be when on the Gunthers= farm, he predicted something special was going to happen before the colt made his first start. "I had a good feeling about this horse," he said. "In fact, I told my son [John Gunther Jr.] before he ran that we have two horses we bred have a good shot of shot running in the Kentucky Derby. One being Vino Rosso. He asked me who the other horse was and I said, >His name is Justify. I think he will run in the Kentucky Derby.' He asked how many starts he had and I said none. To just break his maiden and now everyone is thinking of running him in the Kentucky Derby, that's quite special. With the way he won, he could be one of the nicest horses I've ever bred or raced."

John and Tanya Gunther | Glennwood Farm

"It sort of took your breath away," Tanya Gunther said. "He was amazing. To win like that in your debut going seven furlongs, which is a difficult distance, you just don't see [that] happen. Even though we thought very highly of this horse throughout the time we had him, and I'm sure his connections did as well, you never anticipate a horse doing something as easily as he did and as impressively as he did." Vino Rosso was sold for $410,000 to Repole Stable and St. Elias Stable, also at Keeneland September. The Gunthers have a small racing stable and John Gunther said it is necessary to sell well- bred horses like Justify and Vino Rosso to keep a cash flow coming in. But Without Parole is one they did keep. "That was my dad's mating," Tanya said. "He loves Frankel. My dad is right up there as one of his biggest fans in the world." Without Parole was put in the 2016 Tattersalls October Sale but did not meet his reserve. That may be a good thing for the Gunthers. Cont. p7 TDN HEADLINE NEWS • PAGE 7 OF 13 • THETDN.COM TUESDAY • FEBRUARY 20, 2018

While the colt won a race on an all-weather track that was worth just $9,300, he did so with the type of flourish that has everyone excited. "He won his first start in England by six, but he could have won by 10," John Gunther said. "We think a lot of this colt. He'll be making first start as 3-year-old probably around the first week in April and John Gosden nominated him to the English and Irish Guineas. He likes him a lot." By the time Without Parole returns to the races, the Gunthers will have a better idea if Justify can pull off what seems to be nearly impossible. Even with Baffert as the trainer, even with a horse with this kind of talent, can a horse go from making his first start Feb. 18 to winning the Kentucky Derby, let alone even making the race? The Gunthers believe that he can and so does Baffert. Then there's Vino Rosso, an improving colt trained by Todd Pletcher. For Glennwood Farm, it figures to be an exciting spring.

AI then went THE NEXT LEVEL to college and while there, I worked part time for Michael Halford.When I finished college, I went to work for Frances Crowley where I rode as an amateur for a while. After a few years, myself and my girlfriend Susan decided we'd branch out and start training ourselves." Feane is based at Hazelwood Stables, just opposite the six- furlong start at The Racecourse in a yard that belongs to his uncle, former Classic-winning jockey Declan Gillespie and having trained 12 winners in his debut season in 2014, he has firmly established himself as a trainer on the up. Like a lot of trainers starting off with limited budgets, Feane carved his reputation by winning with either cheaply bought yearlings or second hand horses sourced from HIT sales. It was the cheaply purchased Prince Connossieur (Ire) (Art Connoisseur {Ire}) who helped launch his career in 2014 when he won four times, including when bagging a premier handicap at The Curragh that autumn.

By DaithR Harvey While not yet a household name among the Irish training ranks, John Feane something quite noteworthy last year when he trained Not A Bad Oul Day (Ire) (Captain Rio {GB}) to win seven races in a season. If training the winning-most horse in Ireland was an achievement in itself, buying the 6-year-old gelding out of a claimer for only i5,000 before he kicked off the winning spree was even more impressive. Feane has only commenced his fifth year with a trainer's license, but he has made a serious impression in his first four seasons and following 25 winners in Ireland last year he is well placed, with a team of around 50 horses, to build on that promise. While happy with his lot, Feane is ambitious and he has a hunger for Bigwood winning at Gowran last year | Racing Post winners that will stand the young trainer in good stead as he strives to climb the training ladder. "I think we had 39 seconds last year, so if a few more of those IN TDN AMERICA TODAY had gone our way it could have been even better, but yeah we PEDIGREE INSIGHTS: BRAVAZO had a great year," he said.

Vice President, International Operations To be successful the project needs support from trainers and Gary King John Feane is one who is keen to get behind the concept. "It will Twitter: @garykingTDN be interesting to see how it pans out,@ he said. AObviously it is a [email protected] system that works well in Australia, but it will need support from + 1.732.320.0975 Irish trainers to work here. it will work, maybe it won't International Editor but it's an initiative that is worth trying anyway and I'd like to try Kelsey Riley and support it." Twitter: @kelseynrileyTDN Feane has also embraced the rise in claiming races run in [email protected] Ireland the last few years and along with one of his owners, James Mescall, is a big fan of the system which he thinks European Editor facilitates people getting involved in ownership, something that Emma Berry can only be a positive for racing. Twitter: @collingsberry "Not only are claiming races an ideal source for horses that [email protected] could offer a quick return for an owner, they also provide good Associate International Editor opportunities for older horses that may be in the grip of the Heather Anderson handicapper to compete successfully,@ he said. AI also think Twitter: @HLAndersonTDN there is room for more claiming races in the current programme. At the end of the day owners love winners and if Marketing Manager these races allow new owners to get involved with a horse that Alayna Cullen could be placed to win a race soon after, then it has to be good Twitter: @AlaynaCullen for the sport." [email protected] The owners of Not A Bad Oul Day are a case in point. Claimed Contributing Editor at Laytown in September 2016 with a rating of 58, the horse Alan Carasso finished second on his first start for Feane and owner Daniel Twitter: @EquinealTDN Lynch the following month. While it was four runs and the following spring before the horse won for his new connections, Cafe Racing that victory opened the floodgates for the next six wins that Sean Cronin followed over the following six months. Those wins yielded over Tom Frary i70,000 in prizemoney and saw the gelding rise over 30lbs in [email protected] the handicap, all the while advertising the merits of the claiming Irish Correspondent system and the skills of his trainer. Daithi Harvey In four seasons training, Feane's horses have enjoyed a great strike rate on the Polytrack in Dundalk and are often towards Regular Columnists the head of the betting in many of the premier handicaps Andrew Caulfield throughout the year. While not wishing to sound too big for his John Berry own boots, the trainer is hoping to spread his wings this season Kevin Blake and become a more regular player in pattern races and some of Tom Peacock the bigger turf races.
