All of those previous wins came in front of empty stands ADDEYBB REGAINS because of COVID-19, so Saturday=s triumph at Randwick was something very special for the 23-year-old. ASCENDANCY IN EPIC ALast year was incredible, but I couldn=t help but think what a shame it was for Addeybb to come down here and win a race of RIVALRY this magnitude with no crowd,@ Marquand said. AI thought I was unlucky. ANow I realise I=m twice as lucky, because I did it once, rode my first Group 1 winner down here without a crowd, and now it=s like doing it all over . The atmosphere here is just incredible. What a phenomenal effort from Haggas to bring him back down here.@ While his victory in last year=s Queen Elizabeth came on Heavy ground, Addeybb was faced with a new challenge when he stepped out on to a Good track at Randwick on Saturday to try to defend his title. There was also an early hiccup as he broke slowly from the starting gate. But from there, with a masterful ride from Marquand, Addeybb=s star qualities shone through. He crept forward down the back of the track and was sitting outside the front-running Dalasan ( {Ire}) by the time the field reached the turn out of the back straight. Marquand European invader Addeybb (Ire) | Bronwen Healy pushed the button again coming around the home turn, and by Richard Edmunds Addeybb went for gold.

But Addeybb responded in kind, holding on to his clear upper hand and defended his crown in the G1 Longines Queen advantage and winning by 0.5l. Elizabeth S. at Randwick on Saturday. The two world-class racehorses have finished first and second every time they have met. Addeybb defeated Verry Elleegant in the Ranvet and Queen Elizabeth last autumn, while Verry Elleegant turned the tables when they locked horns again in this year=s Ranvet at Rosehill on March 27.But the score is now three-one in favour of the William Haggas-trained Addeybb, who now has back-to-back wins in the $4 million Queen Elizabeth to sit alongside his victory in one of Europe=s great races, the G1 Champion S. at Ascot last October. His partner every step of the way has been young star British jockey , who had his first taste of Group 1 success in last year=s Ranvet and Queen Elizabeth. He was also in the saddle for the Champion S. at Ascot, and he collected an extra Group 1 victory aboard (Ire) (Australia {GB}) in the English St Leger.

Reigning 3-year- old filly champion Swiss Skydiver (Daredevil) couldn't go with the top two late and settled for third. The contrarians were out in force all across social media since the Apple Blossom was drawn Tuesday, reasoning that Letruska had the speed to lead the field and was a danger to take them all the way. Turns out 'they' knew. Last year's GI Preakness S. winner Swiss Skydiver, exiting a dominant 4-year-old debut in the GI Mile S. last month, was kicked away from gate two by Robby Albarado, but the lead was short-lived, as Letruska was hustled along by Irad Ortiz, Jr. and set the pace from the two path through an opening quarter in :23.56. The rail was left open down the backstretch, allowing Swiss Skydiver to hold her spot at the fence, 3/4 of a length behind, while Monomoy Girl was sitting her usual trip in the clear, ridden by Florent Geroux like the best horse in the race.

She was soon beaten, however, and it was Monomoy Girl who looked to have the momentum as she surged to a clear advantage a furlong and a half from home.

BANKRUPTCY TRUSTEE WARNS OF RISK unreasonable delay impedes the Chapter 7 Trustee's investigation." THAT ZAYAT WILL WIPE AWAY ELECTRONIC The job of trustee in a voluntary bankruptcy case is to make RECORDS by T.D. Thornton sure that a debtor's claim of insolvency is on the up-and-up. In Zayat's case, he alleged in his initial filing last September that he has $19 million in debt but only $314.22 in assets, with a huge chunk of that money owed to Thoroughbred-related creditors. People who file for bankruptcy protection generally try to cooperate with their assigned trustees, because without the trustee's seal of approval, their debt likely won't get forgiven by a judge. But Zayat's case has been riddled with accusations of his stonewalling and evasion since the outset of the initial hearings. Zayat, through his attorney, has repeatedly denied those claims and stated that he has been a willing and cooperative petitioner. Not only can a trustee file an objection if aspects of the filing don't seem legit, but if alleged fraud is uncovered in a bankruptcy , the Federal Bureau of Investigation can investigate, and the U.S. Department of Justice can prosecute.
