KEEN ICE TACKLES FREDERICK HOPES FOR ANOTHER DIAMOND AT F-T SARATOGA by Jessica Martini ANOTHER TALL TASK When Kentucky breeder Todd Frederick sold a Congrats filly for $60,000 as a short yearling at the 2016 January IN WHITNEY sale, he admitted he was satisfied, but certainly not over the moon, with the transaction. With that yearling now an OBS March sale topper and a >TDN Rising Star,= Frederick will be looking for a bigger result when he sends Diamondsandpearls=s half-sister by Orb (hip 136) through the ring during the second session of the Fasig-Tipton Saratoga Selected Yearlings Sale next Tuesday. AWe were hoping for a little more, but we were satisfied,@ Frederick said of the 2016 sales result. AWere we overly happy? No, but we were satisfied. We were looking to get some of our money back in a quick return on the investment that we made, so that was the decision we made at the time.@ Cont. p4 (click here)

Keen Ice | Sarah K. Andrew HERE COMES WHEN IN SUSSEX SHOCKER Seven-year-old gelding Here Comes When (Ire) (Danehill by Ben Massam Dancer {Ire}) rolled through the mud to win Wednesday’s G1 SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y. - It has been nearly two years since Sussex S. at Glorious Goodwood at 20-1.

Jerry Crawford, president of Donegal Racing, said Keen Ice is thriving and ready to compete at Saratoga for the first time since his defining victory. "We're excited,@ Crawford said when asked about the Whitney match-up Wednesday morning. AThere's nothing on paper that suggests that we can beat Gun Runner on Saturday, but there was surely nothing on paper that suggested we would beat on Travers day a couple years ago. We're running at a place we know he loves." While Gun Runner does not carry quite the same mystique as a once-beaten Triple Crown winner, he has developed into a formidable handicap horse--one that would likely tower over the division if not for the presence of international superstar Arrogate (Unbridled's Song).

McCormacks Building a Classic Legacy in Canada cont. Graciously bowing out so as not to unduly drive up the price of that filly, McCormack called an audible and focused his attention on the filly=s dam who was to immediately precede her produce into the ring. AShe was a Canadian-bred Smart Strike mare out of a Storm Cat dam [Gather the Storm], I mean what=s not to like?@ he reasoned. The mare hammered for $25,000 in foal to Quiet American. Both mare and foal were being consigned by the Ontario- based Anderson Farm, operated at the time by David Anderson, whose father Bob had passed away about a year prior. AI really think of Bob Anderson when I talk about [Smart Catomine], because he loved this mare,@ McCormack said. ABob was a great breeder here in Ontario. His son David is a good friend. He continued, ADavid told me it was very hard to put this mare on the van. I told him that it would be very easy for me to put her on my van! We kind of laughed in the back ring and I said, >well if I=m not going to buy the weanling, I=ll switch my attention to the mare and we were fortunate enough to buy her. Obviously it=s worked out beautifully and now we=ve had a Canadian Classic winner out of her.@ As if her breeding up close wasn=t attractive enough, Smart Catomine was possessed of a deeper pedigree, as her third dam was Martessa (Ger) (Solarstern {Fr}), the German mare of the year, champion miler and champion 3-year-old filly of 1991. After producing a filly by Quiet American in 2012 and a colt by Rebellion (GB) the following year, Smart Catomine was put on a Bluegrass-bound van for a date with Spring At Last, then at WinStar Farm. AShe=s a lovely, kind mare,@ McCormack said. A[As a racemare], she had speed in the mornings, but for whatever reason, it didn=t work out at the track. Her foals have generally shown good speed, but in the mating for this horse, I was looking to stretch out a bit and maybe tap into that German bloodline a little bit for a bit of stamina. She=s a stocky type, she=s built like a small sprinter. That was the basic plan. And it worked, thank God.@ Though he=d shown some promise in his morning work, Cool Catomine was no better than third from a pair of tries sprinting over the Poly to begin his career and was a listless seventh trying two turns for the first time June 10. AHe ran in >fits and starts= and his jockey [Luis Contreras] recommended the addition of blinkers and said he=d stick with him,@ McCormack said. Though he was supplemented to the Canadian Triple Crown with hopes of making the July 2 Queen=s Plate, Cool Catomine was instead ticketed for a maiden on the Plate undercard.

McCormacks Building a Classic Legacy in Canada cont. Despite having to cover some extra ground, he was up to score by a neck while doing his best work late at odds of 14-1 (video). The proverbial light bulb had gone on and from here, the sky=s the limit, if you ask McCormack. AI like the way he won his maiden on Queen=s Plate day,@ he said. AHe came running into the lead right at the wire, he was going forward at the wire, and that gave me encouragement. When good horses start putting it together, they can start to become dangerous at a price. I felt he had a shot [in the Prince of Wales]. I think he was running on at the end, too, and I think a race like the [C$400,000] Breeders= S. [12 furlongs on the turf Sunday, Aug. 20] certainly would seem to be within his scope.@ In a business where timing is everything, Cara Bloodstock just so happens to be consigning a Flashback (Tapit) half-sister to Cool Catomine as hip 75 to the CTHS Canadian Premier Yearling Sale at the end of August. AThis filly is typical,@ McCormack said. AShe=s quite well-bodied and not overly big, but correct and she=s a filly, so if she doesn=t get done in the ring, it=d be OK to maybe keep a daughter too. It=s nice to have that option. He continued, AThe mare throws a nice foal, plenty of muscle, good frame on them. She's an amazing mare. She's in foal for the 11th season in a row. We weren't going to breed her, we were going to give her the year off. She gave us a nice colt by Goldencents [this year]. We looked after her during the foal heat and we short-cycled her and she was there to be bred and we bred her to Silent Name (Jpn). I figured, if I gave her the year off, she might take a year off. She's such a great mom and an easy foaler and we're looking forward to her foal again next year.@ It would not be the first of Smart Catomine=s produce to sell well at the Ontario sale. McCormack consigned the aforementioned Wild Catomine to the 2012 event when she was knocked down to trainer Mark Casse for C$110,000 before she went on to win the 2014 Fury S. and finish runner-up in that year=s Woodbine Oaks. She had sold for $22,000 as a weanling at Keeneland just after McCormack struck for Smart Catomine. McCormack is clearly a horseman who loves his trade and he had the ideal upbringing, serving the legendary E. P. Taylor=s Windfields Farm--the former home of Northern Dancer--as its general manager from 1987 and for the next two decades. Among the sires he managed were Northern Dancer=s second- crop son Vice Regent and the latter=s son , and the Windfields experience is one he recalls with tremendous fondness and appreciation. AWindfields was my >career job,'@ he said. AWe were a team working with Charles Taylor and Ric Waldman and the staffs in Maryland and Ontario.

It was a great, great career job and I thought it would be my career for my whole involvement in the business. But as things evolve, things naturally change and I knew it wouldn't be my whole career. I enjoyed my time with it. When it was over, it was sad--I miss the people and the horses and the stories. My kids grew up on the farm and there are just some great memories.@ And now, at Mapleshade and through Cara Bloodstock, Bernard and Karen McCormack are creating memories of their own. ATo be breeding Classic winners in our own name, I would have hoped that to be a storybook ending, but I wouldn=t have written it down,@ he said.

Even after his return to the winner=s enclosure in York=s Listed HERE COMES WHEN IN Hambleton H. on May 18, he was upstaged again by Morando (Fr) (Kendargent {Fr}) when third in Windsor=s Listed SUSSEX SHOCKER Midsummer S. at the start of last month but Balding kept the faith. In what can only be seen as a masterstroke in hindsight, his decision to carry out a bold supplementing move last week in the hope that the forecast rain would arrive paid handsome dividends as the ,1-million event unravelled with each stage of the downpour. Settled in third early with nothing to lose as Jim Crowley stalked the frontrunning Ribchester, Here Comes When was in line to pose a threat as the long-time leader began to falter inside the last quarter mile. Gaining a slight lead approaching the furlong pole, he looked only to have Lightning Spear to worry about on his outer with Ribchester losing all momentum and dropping behind. As Crowley gained the upper hand inside the last 50 yards, the favourite had found something to rally but the contest was already sewn up.

With Churchill (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) ruled out as a result of the torrential rain and the hot favourite Ribchester failing to reproduce the form of his G1 Lockinge S. and G1 Queen Anne S. wins, Fitri Hay=s stalwart had the battling qualities that ultimately counted in a war of attrition. It has been three years since the bay had captured a prize even approaching this quality, with his brace in the 2014 G2 Oettingen-Rennen over a mile at Baden-Baden and G2 Challenge S. at seven furlongs at Newmarket remaining his peak performances prior to this effort. While the interim period had been largely uninspiring, Here Comes When did manage a fourth placing behind Solow (GB) (Singspiel {Ire}) in this and a second in the seven-furlong G3 Supreme S. also at this track two years ago and like Breton Rock had been relatively lightly-raced and looked after by his stable with Andrew Balding keen to keep him away from quick ground. As recently as Champions Day in October, he was taking part not in the G1 Queen Elizabeth II S. but the fixture=s Balmoral H. and was only 10th there, so thoughts of landing a Sussex would have been fanciful at that stage of his career.

G3 Bombay Sapphire Molecomb S. Cont. AOnce he got into his rhythm he=s done it well,@ he continued. AHe=s in the [G1 Prix] Morny [at Deauville on Aug. 20], which closed this morning and the owners have always been very keen to go for that. Unfortunately, I also have to run Unfortunately in it too--I=d rather not run them both, but both horses deserve to go for a Group 1.@

Pedigree Notes... Ironically, Havana Grey is the first foal out of a half-sister to the 2014 G3 Molecomb S. runner-up Fast Act (Ire) (Fast Company {Ire}). The third dam is a half to the illustrious racemare and producer Al Bahathri (Blushing Groom {Fr}), whose best offspring was the G2 Prix Eugene Adam-winning sire Radevore (GB) and whose descendants include the G3 Prix Daphnis winner Lateen Sails (GB) (Elmaamul), G2 Hungerford S. scorer Richard Pankhurst (GB) (Raven=s Pass) and G3 Horris Hill S. winner Crazy Horse (GB) (Sleeping Indian {GB}). Blanc de Chine=s yearling is a full-brother to the winner, while her 2017 colt is by Fast Company (Ire).

WINTER=S APPROACH Wednesday=s action at Goodwood had the look and feel of a day at the races in January at some points, and Winter (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) would be an apt winner of the feature G1 Qatar Nassau S. on what will hopefully be a more customary summery experience on Thursday. How she will handle desperate conditions is an unknown, but she looked high-class on yielding when running away with the G1 Irish 1000 Guineas on her penultimate start on May 28 and has a rare air of dynamism about her. Her two victories in the May 7 G1 1000 Guineas and June 23 G1 Coronation S. either side of that Curragh romp came on a fast surface and were marked by the same ruthless superiority, but she is out of a fast mare and the 10 furlongs have to be a question mark. AIt=s her first time over a mile and a quarter, but she is in good form,@ Aidan O=Brien said. AWe always thought she was a very high-class filly. From the first time she ran she has progressed with every run. You can never be sure that she will get the mile and a quarter, but she is by Galileo, which is obviously a big help.@ Despite the withdrawals of the recent G1 Pretty Polly S. winner Nezwaah (GB) (Dubawi {Ire}), and last year=s G1 Prix Marcel Boussac heroine Wuheida (GB) (Dubawi {Ire}) and >TDN Rising Star= Shutter Speed (GB) (Dansili {GB}) due to the torrent that hit Goodwood on Wednesday, there is still a real quality to the opposition which includes Lord Lloyd-Webber=s G3 Musidora S. winner and G1 Prix de l=Opera third So Mi Dar (GB) (Dubawi {Ire}).

Winter=s Approach Cont. Not seen since that Arc day contest at Chantilly, the homebred was withdrawn from York=s G2 Middleton S. when the ground got wet.
