JUSTIFY & HOPPERTUNITY=S NYRA ANNOUNCES PURSE INCREASES STARTING OCT. 18 CONNECTIONS SEEK COURT by Bill Finley With impressive gains in handle and with the reopening of the BLOCK OF SCOPOLAMINE casino at Aqueduct, NYRA will increase purses starting Oct. 18 and for the remainder of the Belmont meet. Like many tracks, RE-HEARINGS NYRA forced to make purse cuts due to COVID-19 related problems that reduced revenue sources. Rather than an across-the-board purse increase, NYRA will put more money into certain categories, in particular maiden races. The purse for an open maiden special weight race will go from $63,000 to $80,000. New York-bred maidens will see a purse increase from $52,000 to $70,000. Other purse increases include a $4,000 bump for open $25,000 claimers and a $3,000 increase for $40,000 maiden claimers. For the complete list, click here. Cont. p6

Trainer , plus the owners and two jockeys who rode the undefeated 2018 Triple Crown winner Justify and the MGISW Hoppertunity, filed a legal petition against the California Board (CHRB) Oct. 13, alleging that the CHRB's recent decision to reopen hearings on two scopolamine positives from those horses in 2018 amounts to "arbitrary, capricious, and unlawful conduct" that purportedly targets Baffert and his clients unfairly while supposedly damaging the horses' reputations as stallions. The petition, filed Tuesday in Los Angeles County Superior Court, seeks a judgment, injunction, and "peremptory writ of mandate commanding Respondent CHRB to dismiss the Complaints filed against Petitioners and cancel all hearings on the matter." The petitioners--Baffert, WinStar Farm LLC, China Horse Club, Head of Plains Partners LLC, Starlight Racing, Michael Pegram, Karl Watson, Paul Weitman, Mike Smith, and Flavien Prat--are also going after the CHRB for unspecified monetary damages, attorney fees, and court costs, plus "other, different, or further relief as the Court may deem just and proper," according to the 26-page court filing.

Bob Baffert & Justify | Sarah Andrew

According to the Oct. 13 filing, AAll racing jurisdictions have rules that govern the sport and the presence of medications and substances in post-race blood and urine tests. California is no different, and the April 2018 tests were taken pursuant to those rules. Specifically, California's classification system delineates five classes of substances [and] four categories of penalties. [The more egregious and harmful] Class 1-3 substances correspond with penalty categories A and B, while Class 4-5 substances are associated with penalty categories C and D.@ AAt the time of the 2018 Santa Anita Derby, just as it is today, the CHRB's rules designated scopolamine as a Class 4, penalty C substance. Significantly, disqualification is not an authorized penalty for Class 4, penalty C substances. Plainly stated, disqualification premised on the presence of scopolamine was not a permissible option for the CHRB in April 2018 under its own rules [nor is it an option today]." The filing continues: AThere have been numerous incidents of jimson weed contaminating bales of hay, leading to what are called >clusters' of horses testing positive for scopolamine when they unknowingly ingest contaminated feed. Fortunately, there is a proven scientific method for determining whether the presence of scopolamine in a horse is due to intentional administration or is the result of innocent contamination from hay. If the horse has ingested jimsonweed, blood tests of that horse will reveal the presence of atropine. On the other hand, if scopolamine has been intentionally administered, atropine will not be present.@ ARacing commissions routinely use the presence or absence of atropine in the blood as a determinative factor in deciding whether to pursue complaints against an owner or trainer.. Equally important, the amounts of scopolamine found in the blood of Justify and Hoppertunity..were small enough that they would have no pharmacological effect in a horse." Cont. p5

The filing states that, AThere were five other horses who tested positive for scopolamine during this time period. All seven horses were investigated by Dr. Rick Arthur, the CHRB's Equine Medical Director, and Rick Baedeker, the CHRB's Executive Director. Arthur and Baedeker determined that the cluster of scopolamine positives at Santa Anita in 2018 was the result of contaminated hay. They found jimson weed in hay that had been delivered to Santa Anita and the blood and urine samples of all the horses revealed the presence of atropine. The investigation and science were conclusive: this was a case of environmental contamination that had no effect whatsoever on all seven horses tested that day, nor the outcome of their respective races. Thus, Arthur and Baedeker jointly recommended to the Board of the CHRB that all seven cases be dismissed.@ AArthur and Baedeker's recommendation was presented to the Board of the CHRB, which voted unanimously to dismiss all seven cases. That decision was not only proper, it was the only one the CHRB could make under its own rules..In sum, the cases for the seven horses testing positive for scopolamine in April 2018..were all thoroughly and properly investigated and were all dismissed.

Sire Maclean's Music is more of a sprint influence, and his dam never won beyond 6 1/2 furlongs, so while Robison would to win the Derby, he's only interested in running with a top chance.

From three horses to race in Australia, two of her purchases MATHIESEN UNEARTHS have become stakes-winning 2-year-olds, which is a strike-rate even the world’s best bloodstock agents would dream of. ANOTHER TALENTED FILLY Mathiesen said there are plenty of similarities between the fillies but she does think a little bit of luck has been involved. “Pedigree wise, they’re both by sires that throw precocious 2-year-olds and physically they’re both strong, early looking horses but to get two horses of that calibre back-to-back I’d say is a bit of luck as well.” With successful purchases from both yearling and weanling sales in Australia, Mathiesen said she and her business will continue to target both markets for the foreseeable future. “I think a good horse can come from any sale so we’re definitely trying to be at all of them and just pick the best athlete we can from each sale,” she said. “With Oakmont, our main focus is pinhooking so that’s why we tend to go to the weanling sales. “For Away Game and just racehorses in general, I would tend to lean towards the yearling sales but it doesn’t mean you can’t find a good one at the weanling sales either.”

Hannah Mathiesen with Away Game | Bronwen Healy Intentions by Georgie Dennis With toes dipped into several aspects of the breeding and American Hannah Mathiesen is quickly making her presence bloodstock industry across both Australia and America, felt in the Australian racing industry as she looks to have Mathiesen said she will continue to spread herself out between another talented 2-year-old in the Ciaron Maher and David buying for herself, buying for clients as well as buying with the Eustace-trained Fake Love (I Am Invincible). intention of pinhooking. She also believes that buying horses In the same year that Hannah Mathiesen celebrated multiple and retaining a share for herself while selling the rest is stakes successes with brilliant filly Away Game (Snitzel), she important and is something she will look to continue with. looks to have found another one in Listed Debutant S. winner Fake Love. Fake Love was purchased by Mathiesen’s pinhooking group Oakmont Horse Club for $380,000 at the 2019 Magic Millions National Weanling Sale from the draft of Segenhoe Stud however she passed in when returning to the Magic Millions Gold Coast Yearling Sale the following year. That looks to be somewhat of a blessing in disguise now that the well-bred filly has already added a black-type win to her CV with a ceiling still to be reached. “It was very exciting,” Mathiesen told TDN AusNZ. “She was a horse we bought as a weanling for our pinhooking group and we couldn’t sell her as a yearling, but we always thought she was a good horse. We had set the bar high for her but to see her actually come out and win on debut was amazing.” Fake Love with Mark Zahra | Bronwen Healy TDN AUSTRALIA/NEW ZEALAND • PAGE 2 OF 2 • THETDN.COM THURSDAY • 15 OCTOBER 2020

“I think it shows a lot of confidence to your clients when you’re buying in yourself and it shows you have confidence in the horse that you’re buying for them,” Mathiesen said. “I’d love if I could continue to buy a piece of the horse for myself and buy the rest of it for clients and get more people involved that way, so my main focus now, is to continue doing that. “I have a few different things going on right now. We have the farm in Kentucky which is mainly broodmares and breeding and then some yearling prep, as well and then we're just continuing with our family racing stable and then the pinhooking as well. I’m trying to go down a couple of different avenues and diversify and I think so far it’s going well.” The current state of the world makes it challenging for any internationals to travel into Australia for the upcoming yearling sale season, but Mathiesen said she will be doing her best to make it to the Magic Millions Sale at the Gold Coast which has been a happy hunting ground for her so far. However, it’s not only the sale that she’ll be looking forward to with Fake Love set to emulate the path of Away Game and target the R. Listed Magic Millions 2YO Classic in the hope of landing the race for Mathiesen for the second consecutive year. “I’m going to do the best I can to get out there or try and inspect them virtually,” she said. “But if I can’t be there it’s going to be a bit of a challenge. “I’d love to keep buying because we’ve had some success there and in the Australian racing industry in general.”
