Colonel Ready to Rumble in Classic... WinStar Farm=s Colonel John (Tiznow) breezed five- eighths of a mile in :59.40 at Del Mar Tuesday morning in advance of Sunday=s GI Pacific Classic at the seaside oval. The four-year-old, winner of the GI Santa Anita Derby and the GI Travers in 2008, returned from a De- cember layoff to post Sarah K Andrew Photo an impressive victory in the grassy Wickerr H. over the Jimmy Durante turf course July 31. AI think he got plenty out of that race,@ trainer Eoin Harty said during a Tuesday teleconference. AI always felt he could run on the turf. He=s always shown a good turn of foot. I felt he was the best horse in the race, but the thing that surprised me the most was the final time.@ Colonel John covered the one-mile distance in a sharp 1:32.77, just about two-fifths of a second off the course record in what was his turf debut. A respectable sixth in the GI Breeders= Cup Classic Oct. 25, Colonel John was an even fourth in the GI Malibu S. Dec. 26. He was entered for the GI Santa Anita H. in early March, but was scratched the morning of the race. AHe had a pleural pneumonia,@ Harty explained. AHe came back, but I had to give him more time off due to some aches and pains. But once I got him to a point in his fitness where he had back-to-back works at five furlongs, he just seemed to go from strength to strength.@ Though he was nominated to this weekend=s Wood- ward S., Harty decided to leave Colonel John in Califor- nia for the Classic AI didn=t have to ship and he=s certainly shown a fondness for this racetrack down here,@ he said. AI thought the odds were stacked in my favor instead of going to New York to tackle Rachel Alexandra.@ Harty added that if G1 winner Well Armed (Tiznow) had not suffered an injury in the Aug. 2 GII San Diego H., he would have represented WinStar in the Classic.

FROM THE DESK OF... Bill Oppenheim BOOK 1-2 SIRES With the number catalogued in Keeneland September Book 1 down 16 percent, from 495 last year to 418 this year, it would be pretty difficult, even in a strong market, to anticipate the gross for the first two days being up, whatever else happens. The number cata- logued in Book 2 is about even with last year, meaning that for the sale=s first four days in 2009, there are 1,212 yearlings catalogued, around a six-percent drop from the 1,297 catalogued in 2008. Of the 1,212 yearlings catalogued in the sale=s first four days this year, 753 of them--a little over 62 percent--are by the 24 sires that have 19 or more cata- logued each during the sale=s first four days.

You=ll possibly not be surprised to hear that only eight of the 24 are sires with first four- year-olds or younger, while 16 of the 24 are from the more >proven= contingent, sires with oldest foals now five-year-olds and up.
