The Archie Watson- trained gelding also has an option in the G2 Duke Of York S. at York on May 12. Cosmo Charlton, Head Racing Manager for owner Hambleton Racing, said, AGlen Shiel is in fantastic form. Everyone is very happy with him.

  • MAGIC=, >WONDER= and a WHOLE LOT MORE in THIS TRAVERS
    SATURDAY, AUGUST 25, 2018 >MAGIC=, >WONDER= AND SARATOGA: GRAVEYARD OF CHAMPIONS OR BIRTHPLACE? By Christie DeBernardis A WHOLE LOT MORE IN SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y.--Saratoga is arguably the most highly regarded racing venue in the country. Its prestige, history and THIS TRAVERS level of competition are just about unmatched. Part of that history, however, is a reputation as AThe Graveyard of Champions.@ One of the most famous examples of that is the mighty Secretariat=s loss to Onion in the 1973 Whitney S., which was a Grade II at the time. More recently, Triple Crown winner American Pharoah (Pioneerof the Nile)=s perfect sophomore season came to a halt at the Spa when Keen Ice (Curlin) surged past the champion late in the 2015 GI Travers S. However, an argument can be made that Saratoga has made as many champions as it has claimed, if not more. Cont. p4 IN TDN EUROPE TODAY Leading trainer Chad Brown talks Saratoga and STARS ALIGN FOR NUNTHORPE LONGSHOT his two Travers contenders in this TDN video Alpha Delphini provided trainer Bryan Smart with a career by Joe Bianca highlight in Friday’s G1 Nunthorpe S. while favoured Battaash checked in fourth. Click or tap here to go straight to TDN It may not have the box-office appeal that it would have had Europe. Triple Crown winner Justify (Scat Daddy) shown up, but there remains plenty of intrigue and an array of storylines in Saturday=s 11-horse GI Travers S. at Saratoga. And whoever leaves with their colors being painted on that famous canoe will have wholly earned it.

Last year=s sale was held in one session but a marked increase in entries lead to a second day added this time around and as a result the number offered on Wednesday was significantly lower than last year. This in turn had an adverse effect on the day=s turnover which came in at i2,921,500. However the average and median of i18,034 (-4.9%) and i14,000 (-6.7%) held up reasonably on last year. Of slightly more concern was the drop in clearance rate from last year=s 85% to 79% after 162 of the 205 offered yearlings changed hands. Cont. p3 IN TDN AMERICA TODAY Enable | Racing Post N.
