CHURCHILL DOWNS NORTH AMERICAN FOAL CROP, NUMBER OF STALLIONS, MARES BRED ALL DECLINE ANNOUNCES AGREEMENT by T.D. Thornton Three key North American bloodstock metrics regarding 2018 TO BUY TURFWAY PARK matings and 2019 live foal reports all posted declines from previous-year breeding statistics, The Jockey Club (TJC) announced Thursday. With the reporting of 2019 live foals now estimated at 90% completion, TJC stated in a press release that the 20,363 live foals reported through Sept. 26 represent a 3.6% drop over same-time reporting from last year. Based on that figure, TJC is projecting that the 2019 registered foal crop will ultimately top out at 20,800, which would be the lowest total since 1966, when 20,228 were foaled.

Jack Ohio LLC and Hard Rock International for total consideration of $46 million in cash, CDI announced Thursday. The move comes after CDI applied for Turfway’s 2020 dates and announced plans to build a competing racetrack in the region last month. In a press release, CDI also said Turfway’s existing grandstand will be demolished “to make way for a new state-of- the-art facility.” The closing of the transaction is contingent upon approval by the Kentucky Commission. The KHRC has scheduled a meeting for Oct. 8 and, if the change of control is approved, the parties expect to close the transaction shortly thereafter. “Subject to KHRC approval, the 2019-2020 winter racing meet at Turfway Park will be conducted on racing dates previously awarded to Turfway Park for December 2019 and in accordance with the schedule of racing dates submitted by JACK to the KHRC for 2020,” the release said. “Upon receiving approval for the change of control, CDI will not pursue its previously announced New Latonia Racing & Gaming project in northern Kentucky and will withdraw its New Latonia race dates application with the KHRC.” Cont. p3 PUBLISHER & CEO Sue Morris Finley @suefinley [email protected]

Churchill Agrees to Buy Turfway cont. from p1 “We are thrilled to welcome Turfway Park to the Churchill Downs racing family,” said Kevin Flanery, President of Churchill Downs Race Track. “Our team is poised to restore Turfway to its former glory, anchored by northern Kentucky’s first historical racing machine facility. The result will be a first-class racing product fueled by increased purses that keeps high-quality horses in Kentucky year-round and appeals to horseplayers nationwide.”

TJC Breeding Stats Revealed cont. from p1 The high mark for the continent’s crop was in 1986, when 51,296 Thoroughbreds were foaled. With the exception of one Sunrise at Turfway | Patrycja Szpyra very small (12-foal) uptick in 2015, the North American foal crop has declined every year since 2006. CDI said that, immediately after closing, it will commence According to TJC, 1,630 stallions (down 8.3% from last year) planning for the demolition of Turfway’s grandstand to allow for covered 32,508 mares (down 5.2%) in North America during the development of Turfway Park Racing & Gaming, also called 2018. “New Turfway Park,” which it will invest up to $150 million into For a historical perspective, the number of active stallions on for live racing and a historical machine the continent has now declined in every single year since at facility with up to 1,500 machines.

Individual Kentucky stallions took the top 36 placings on TJC’s list in terms of number of foals produced, and they also occupied the top 18 positions in number of mares bred. The 17,446 mares reported bred to 241 Kentucky stallions in 2018 produced 12,200 live foals, a 1.4% decrease on a year-to-year comparison. The number of mares reported bred to Kentucky stallions in 2018 increased slightly, by 0.3%. Chauncey Morris, the executive director of the Kentucky Thoroughbred Association and Kentucky Thoroughbred Owners & Breeders (KTA/KTOB), told TDN that even though the industry has contracted for the better part of a decade, “We’re still the deepest part of the lake here in Kentucky as far as breeding is concerned. The Kentucky-bred horses really distinguish themselves in open company in North America and also around the world.” When asked if he thought the year-after year declines now require bloodstock benchmarks that are based on a “new

Yet only a handful, having an early impact from a low base, have actually advanced their averages. For the rest, even treading water is a triumph. Because some have seen their second crops halve in value, or worse, despite perfectly respectable stats among their few runners to date. Farms nowadays feel obliged to throw everything at new sires, to maximize their shop window in a market manically prejudiced in favor of untested risk. Yet that same window is increasingly likely to be boarded up overnight, as the next intake of new blood opens for business next door. Today's market is floodlit by candles that burn brightly but briefly, being all wick and no wax. And it is becoming harder and harder for stallions to find a niche in which a low but sturdy glow can safely endure the fitful draughts of fashion. Harder and harder, that is, to emulate the sire of Perfect Alibi, who bids to consolidate her status among the season's leading juvenile fillies in the GI Darley Alcibiades S. at Keeneland Friday.

Sky Mesa at Three Chimneys | EquiSport Photos Strange to reflect that Sky Mesa (Pulpit), now 19, was himself once a young stallion who had talked the talk, but apparently not walked the walk. As an unbeaten Grade I winner at two-- underpinned by a terrific pedigree, plus brawn, balance and conformation--his sales debut had even been highlighted by a seven-figure yearling. But a solitary black-type performer from 43 juvenile starters, out of that first crop, was the kind of return that would today probably earn him a one-way ticket to Oklahoma or Korea. The business was not quite so hysterical and jittery in those days. And after a handful of that first crop matured into graded stakes winners, he then produced two elite scorers from his second, foaled in 2006: Frizette winner Sky Diva, and Blue Grass S. hero General Quarters. Unfortunately, despite 22 other graded stakes scorers altogether, Sky Mesa did not produce another Grade I winner until Perfect Alibi won the Spinaway S. last month. Cont. p7 TDN HEADLINE NEWS • PAGE 7 OF 13 • THETDN.COM FRIDAY • OCTOBER 4, 2019

Nonetheless he has carved out a reputation that few new sires, in today's market, can hope to emulate. We all know that hardly any of them will ever again command a fee as high as their opening one, but Sky Mesa started at Three Chimneys in 2004 at $30,000 and his services cost exactly the same in 2012. As he has aged, and the market has become more puerile, his fee has slipped a notch or two and this was his third year at $15,000. But while he dropped to 63 mares last year, he had previously maintained a rock-solid three-figure average, with a devoted following among those possessed by the quaint idea of breeding a horse that can actually run (i.e. not just sell). They know you can set your clock by Sky Mesa, who has duly produced another eight stakes winners so far this year. These include one of the most exciting unbeaten colts around in Meru, who recently burned off his pursuers in the Smoke Glacken S. at Monmouth in 1:08.93.

There really can't be much better value around at this kind of money. TDN lifetime stats show Sky Mesa producing stakes winners at a clip surpassing Tiznow, Candy Ride (Arg), , Flatter, Bernardini, Empire Maker, and Union Rags, to give a random sample of more expensive stallions too excellent to be embarrassed by the comparison; and basically in step, moreover, with Malibu Moon, Kitten's Joy, Uncle Mo and More Than Ready. It's not hard to figure out why he should have become such a consistent stallion. In grandsire and damsire he brings together 's premier achievements as a broodmare sire, A.P. Indy and .

ENABLE IN NINE AS FILLY TOPS SPORTSMAN'S DAY ONE By DaithR Harvey ARC DRAW MADE KILDARE, IrelandCthe two day Goffs Sportsman=s Sale followed on from the Orby Sale on Thursday and expectations were naturally lowered after some eye-watering transactions the previous two days. 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.

AIt=s hard to know what to make of that form, but he won very well and he=s a very exuberant horse who wears his heart on his sleeve,@ he said. AWhat you see is what you get and he was very impressive here in the d=Harcourt.@ Perhaps the real story of the draw is the fact that the June 2 G1 Prix du Jockey Club hero Sottsass (Fr) (Siyouni {Fr}) is on the rail in one, leaving Cristian Demuro with apparently little choice than to play a waiting game with all the other leading contenders breaking away from the representative of Peter Brant=s White Birch Farm. Since the Chantilly Classic was shortened to 10 1/2 furlongs, no winner has gone on to Arc glory and the last to complete the double when it was staged at a mile and a half was Dalakhani (Ire) in 2003. Trainer Jean- Claude Rouget has yet to win the great race, but is in positive mood. AHe=s in very good form--he eats well, sleeps well and works well so all in fine.@ Sottsass warmed up for his biggest test with a win in the course-and-distance trial, the Sept. 15 G2 Prix Niel, but it was not without incident as he needed a gap on the fence which only just came in time. Rouget was giving out positive signals as he reflected on that effort. AIt was very important to have an easy race there, as he had a long break and so the scenario was good for him,@ he explained, before scotching fears of testing conditions. AHe won the [Listed] Prix de Suresnes here on heavy ground, so I don=t think the ground is important to him. We hope to win and my feeling is he is a mile-and-a-half horse, but any race is hard to win and this is harder than the others. I=ve been training for forty years and it=s not a headache for me not to have won it--it=s not an obsession for me. I just want him to run very well. If he wins, that will be fantastic and if he=s beaten and runs a good race that will be good too.@Cont. p3
