Winter Makes It a Guineas Double for Ballydoyle MONDAY, 8 MAY, 2017 WINTER MAKES IT CONTENTMENT WINS TRAGEDY-FILLED CHAMPIONS MILE by Alan Carasso A GUINEAS DOUBLE Contentment (Aus) (Hussonet) rediscovered the form which saw him land the G1 Queen=s Silver Jubilee Cup (1400m) last FOR BALLYDOYLE season, but Sunday=s G1 Champions Mile ended on a tragic note, as heavily favored Rapper Dragon (Aus) (Street Boss) suffered a fractured pelvis with a little less than a half-mile to run and, after being rushed to the on-site veterinary hospital, could not be saved. The expected pacesetter in a race void of any serious speed on paper, Contentment made an easy lead beneath Brett Prebble and walked the dog through the opening 600 metres before Stormy Antarctic (GB) (Stormy Atlantic) rolled up to take command prior to the turn. Rapper Dragon, last after a sluggish break, drove through into about fifth, but was at the tail yet again and under a Joao Moreira drive when he was pulled up abruptly out of the race at the 750m.

Catching the eye when second in the seven-furlong G3 1000 Guineas Trial S. at Leopardstown Apr. 8, the former David Wachman-trained grey tracked the pace closely and after striking the front before the quarter pole, quickly built up a sizeable advantage as the 5-4 favourite had to be checked in behind. When Rhododendron was freed by Ryan Moore, Winter was away and gone. At the line, there was a two-length margin between the Magnier-owned duo who delivered another one- two for their famed sire, with Daban (Ire) (Acclamation {GB}) best of the Brits a neck behind in third. AShe is a pretty straightforward filly and has a high cruising speed, so I just followed the pace,@ Lordan said of Winter, whose time was a second quicker than Churchill=s 24 hours earlier. AShe stays very well and nothing really bothers her--she=s a big filly who is progressive and I think she=ll get a mile and a quarter. I knew whoever came at me would deserve it if they came by me.@ Cont. p2 TDN EUROPE/INTERNATIONAL • PAGE 2 OF 21 • THETDN.COM MONDAY • 8 MAY, 2017 Winter Makes It A Guineas Double Cont. Like the recent G3 Ballysax S. winner Rekindling (GB) (High Chaparral {Ire}), Winter was a David Wachman project prior to his retirement at the end of last year whose light stayed under a bushel as she endured a stop-start campaign under an admiring Wayne Lordan. Precocious enough to be third behind Ballydoyle=s Cuff (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) on debut over six furlongs at Naas in May, she was absent for two months until returning to fill that spot again as the even-money favourite for a mile maiden at Gowran Park won by another from Rosegreen in Butterflies (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}). Off the mark over seven on Dundalk=s Polytrack in August, she was not seen again until her debut for her new stable in the 1000 Guineas Trial. Just denied by Hydrangea (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) there, with the subsequent G3 Athasi S. winner Rehana (Ire) (Dark Angel {Ire}) and Sunday=s G3 Derrinstown Stud 1000 Guineas Trial scorer Bean Feasa (GB) (Dubawi {Ire}) in third and fifth, she had forced her way into this line-up despite the commanding presence of Rhododendron who had so long dominated the ante-post market. Understandably, there was much excitement about the fortunes of Frankel (GB) heading into the Guineas meeting, but ultimately it was his sire Galileo who yet again proved that he is the daddy in the championship events. With the pace-carving Hydrangea fading out of contention late, there was to be no repeat of the Coolmore giant=s one-two-three of 12 months ago generous pace in the process, Winter was perfectly placed to and he had merely a forecast this time to satisfy his insatiable exploit her natural pace by Lordan just behind them. Winter was lust for domination of the biggest prizes. All the betting sent up to take over from that pair with over two furlongs left, suggested beforehand it would be Ballydoyle again here and so while Ryan Moore was about to become a rare victim of traffic it proved, but there were shades of Homecoming Queen (Ire) problems with Hydrangea coming back on to his mount and (Holy Roman Emperor {Ire}) and Maybe (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) in the forcing her to change direction and lose momentum.

  • ARE SUPER TRAINERS GOOD OR BAD for the SPORT? by Chris Mcgrath Bill Finley Has Part II of His Two-Part Series on “Super Trainers” Dominating the Game of Racing
    THURSDAY, JUNE 21, 2018 LETTER FROM ASCOT: HEROES AND GOATS ARE SUPER TRAINERS GOOD by Dave Johnson OR BAD FOR THE SPORT? When I heard the Ascot track announcer say, "Tony Curtis is heading to the stalls," it took me a while to put two and two together. "I thought Tony Curtis was dead," the guy next to me in the press box muttered. I was sure he was, too. But then I realized the announcer was talking about #16 in Wednesday's G2 Royal Hunt Cup Handicap. For those of you who always complain about short fields and favorites with ever blinking low odds, consider the fact that 32 were entered for this race today, and 30 ran. They needed three starting gates for the straight-on one-mile test. The favorite was 7-1. And it wasn't Tony Curtis (GB) (Rock of Click above to watch TDN video of trainers discussing the Gibraltar {Ire})--he finished nineteenth at 40-1.
