GOOD START FOR CAPE PREMIER SALE The inaugural Cape Premier Yearling Sale attracted plenty of international interest yesterday, with buyers video coming from all over the globe, and a pair of yearlings breaking the R2-million bar- rier. Leading the session was lot 102, a colt by Jet Master (SAf), who realized a final bid of R2.5 million (US$354,286) from prominent Gauteng owner Ebrahim Khan. A mem- ber of the Klawervlei Stud Lot 102 consigment, the dark bay-- www.capepremiersale.co.za named One Sunday Morning-- is out of Laptop Lady (SAf) (Al Mufti), who produced South African Horse of the Year Jay Peg (SAf) (Camden Park). Jay Peg, who also won both the G1 Dubai Duty Free and G1 Singapore Airlines International Cup, now stands at Klawervlei. Shortly after that, lot 106, a son of Captain Al (SAf) attracted a bid of R2 million from Singapore-based trainer Pat Shaw. Shaw=s current charges include top sprinter Rocket Man (Aus) (Viscount {Aus}). Consigned by Klipdrif Stud as agent, the bay colt is a half-brother to the Group 1-placed Lizarre (SAf) (Jet Master {SAf}), who is now based in Dubai. Proven sires were in great demand during Thursday=s session, with the stock of top sires Western Winter and Captain Al selling well. Jet Master, widely regarded as one of the best stallions currently at stud in South Africa, had two yearlings sell for R1 million or more. Also sought after were yearlings by Silvano (Ger), who was responsible for lot 101, a colt acquired by Shadwell for R1.7 million. Offered by Varsfontein Stud, the son of Lady Windsor (SAf) (Al Mufti) hails from the family of GII BC Juvenile Turf hero Pluck (More Than Ready). @Everyone has been tremendously positive and upbeat for this sale, and judging on what I have seen, they have every right to be,@ said Shadwell=s Angus Gold, who signed the ticket for the Silvano colt. AThe venue is wonderful, and there are a number of wonderful horses up for sale, who compare favourably with the horses I have bought at the country=s National Sale. Despite being in the middle of a busy city, the horses at the sale have been remarkably settled and relaxed.@ Cont. p4 WORTH 1,000 WORDS

TDN P HEADLINE NEWS • 1/28/11 • PAGE 9 of 13 • thoroughbreddailynews.com

Hot List cont. May Day Rose, incidently, caused a minus win pool-- of over $18,000. She hails from a Bob Baffert barn that can do no wrong at Santa Anita--he was hitting at a 43-percent clip (19/44) heading into Thursday=s card. Splitting May Day Rose and Scarlet Starlet in the Santa Ysabel (an all sophomore 1-2-3 was guaranteed with the late scratch of two rivals) was Bluegrass Chatter, by Bluegrass Cat (Storm Cat). She is now her sire=s fifth graded horse, Bluegrass Chatter, Scarlet Starlet & which puts Bluegrass May Day Rose Benoit Photo Cat, Congrats and cur- rent fourth-placed sire Bernardini (A.P. Indy) as the leaders in that category. She also helped bump Bluegrass Cat up to the second spot on the Second-Crop List. More of the credit for that bump, however, goes to a filly many regard as the best in her division, at least with Awesome Feather (Awesome of Course) on the sidelines. That horse is Kathmanblu. The versatile Ken McPeek charge, third in the GII Breeders= Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf and a decisive winner of Churchill=s GII Golden Rod S. on the dirt at two, made a successful 2011 bow in the Sweetest Chant S. at Gulfstream Jan. 22 (90 Beyer) (video). Bluegrass Cat also has four new maiden special weight winners since the new year (at Aqueduct, Laurel, Turfway and Golden Gate) and a pair of horses that finished third in stakes, Bluegrass Bull and Bluegrass Dreamer. Making the jump from ninth to sixth on the list is the Florida-based With Distinction (Storm Cat). The Grade III winner, a half-brother to the dam of GSW Sightsee- ing (Pulpit), drew attention at last year=s juvenile sales when several from his first crop sold well, including a pair who went for $200,000. Word on the street was that they were big, stretchy horses, and took plenty from With Distinction=s damsire Alydar. In any case, the Hartley/De Renzo stallion can thank his son Decisive Moment for the big leap forward. Runner-up in Novem- ber=s $1 million GIII Delta Downs Jackpot S., Decisive Moment, a $70,000 RNA at OBSAPR, came back to air by 3 1/2 lengths in the $250,000 Jean Lafitte S. at Delta Jan. 14 (video). Sharp Humor (Distorted Humor), another who stands at WinStar, sits in eighth on the Second-Crop Sire List, down a notch despite recording his third black-type winner in the form of Angelica Zapata. The bay filly skimmed the rail to a good-looking victory in the $50,000 Cincinnati Trophy S. at Turfway Jan. 22 (video). He is one of five sophomores with at least three black-type winners, joining Bellamy Road (Con- certo), Congrats, Kodiac (GB) (Danehill) and War Front (Danzig). Darley=s Bernardini and Coolmore=s Aussie Rules (Danehill) share top billing with four black-type winners each. Hot List cont. p10 www.coolmore.com TDN P HEADLINE NEWS • 1/28/11 • PAGE 10 of 13 • thoroughbreddailynews.com

Hot List cont. If you remember, Sharp Humor had two juveniles who sold big from the WinStar horses-in-training draft at Keeneland November. Stakes winner Glint, pur- chased by Kevin and Tammie Hulse for $340,000, has three works since the sale, including an easy four-fur- long move at Oaklawn Tuesday in :51 flat. The maiden- winning filly Funny Sunny, acquired by Mandy Pope=s Whisper Hill Farm for $380,000, also has three drills, including a smart 1:00 flat drill at Gulfstream Jan. 20. She=s entered in a first-level allowance going 6 1/2 furlongs on the main track this Sunday for trainer Bob Hess Jr. Of the aforementioned Bellamy Road and Bernardini: both had good-looking maiden special weight winners recently. The former suffered a tough blow when his unde- feated daughter Position Limit suffered a season-ending--and possible career-ending--ankle injury in September. Prior to that, she was a 6 3/4-length winner sprinting 5 1/2 panels on debut at Belmont in July, then won off by five lengths in the GII Adirondack S. in Position Limit Adam Coglianese August. The folks at Pauls Mill, where Bellamy Road stands, hope that last weekend=s maiden special weight winner Lumberyard Jack develops into a horse who can help fill her horseshoes. The Mike Stidham-trained geld- ing drew off to a two-length win at Fair Grounds Jan. 22 in his second career start, earning an 86 BRIS figure (video). A week earlier at Gulfstream, meanwhile, Bernardini=s Heron Lake looked like a racehorse in the making when he took his debut going seven furlongs for the Bob LaPenta/Nick Zito team (video). Three Chimneys= Flower Alley (Distorted Humor) has had two black-type winners so far in 2011. Bouquet Booth, who rallied to victory in the GIII Delta Downs Princess S. in November, then came back to get her neck down in last Saturday=s Silverbulletday S. at Fair Grounds (video). She was a savvy $30,000 OBSJUN purchase by Right Time Racing and trainer Steve Margolis. She=s got some pedigree, too, as she=s from the immediate family of Riskaverse (Dynaformer), et al. Previously, on New Year=s Day, Flower Alley got the second stakes winner in Lilacs and Lace, heroine of the $100,000 California Oaks (video), while Sassy=s Dream looked like another promising daughter after winning a Gulfstream MSW by daylight Jan. 13 (video).
