ABobby [Frankel] told me this morning to make tally. Despite pulling hard for much of the first part of sure this horse was put onto the lead.

Bolger told PA Sport, "There is less heat in the foot, and we MUSIC NOTE Wins Mother Goose; Proud Spell 3rd, p5 are treating it." Dermot Weld finally conquered this prize in 1996 with the outsider Zagreb and followed up with Grey Swallow (Ire) four years ago. While a win for Bertam Firestone's Winchester (Theatrical {Ire}) would be a major upset after his disappointing effort when down the field in the G2 King Edward VII S. at Royal Ascot nine days ago, in Casual Conquest (Ire) (Hernando {Fr}) Weld has a main player. Promoted to favoritism for the Derby after his six-length defeat of Washington Irving (Ire) (Montjeu {Ire}) in the G2 Derrinstown Stud Derby Trial S. at Leopardstown May 11, Moyglare Stud's homebred was 4 1/2 lengths adrift of New Approach and Tartan Bearer when third in the Blue Riband. His conditioner is hoping the gap will close with that experience under his belt. "He's a lovely big horse and a good one who is still very immature, and he handled Epsom,@ Weld said. A[He] came out of the race sound. He is a balanced horse for his size and Epsom is a very fair track nowadays, so we have no excuses, and I'd be hopeful of a big run.@ The condi- tioner added, AHe's similar to Grey Swallow, in that he's a stayer with speed, so he compares favorably."

Recent British-trained winners include Old Vic (GB) and Generous (Ire), but no horse has shipped over suc- cessfully since Commander in Chief (GB) completed the Epsom-Curragh double in 1993. Michael O'Flynn's Centennial came off a win in the Apr. 26 G3 Sandown Classic Trial to finish fourth behind Tartan Bearer and Frozen Fire in the G2 Dante S. at York last time May 15. The other raider from the far side of the Irish Sea is Patrick Cooper and Partners' Curtain Call, whose trainer Luca Cumani saddled dual Derby winner in Kahyasi (Ire) in 1988. While he disappointed when finding little at the business end of the Epsom Classic last time, the bay colt showed last year that rain-soft- ened ground at this venue is up his alley with an em- phatic success in the G2 Beresford S. "He had been running over seven furlongs, which was a bit short for him, before he went up to a mile in the Beresford, when he improved,@ rider Fran Berry told PA Sport. AHe al- ways rode like a horse who would be good over a mile and a half as a three-year-old." 27 Monmouth St. 2nd Floor Red Bank, NJ 07701 Fax (732) 747-8955 Phone (732) 747-8060 [email protected] Sunday, Curragh, Ireland, post time: 10:50 a.m. EDT DUBAI DUTY FREE IRISH DERBY-G1, i1,500,000, 3yo, c/f, 1 1/2mT SC PP HORSE OWNER BREEDER TRAINER/JOCKEY 1 8 Alessandro Volta (GB) M Tabor/D Smith/S Magnier Meon Valley Stud O=Brien (Montjeu {Ire}--Ventura Highway {GB}, by Machiavellian) Murtagh 2 10 Bashkirov (GB) M Tabor/D Smith/S Magnier Chippenham Lodge Stud O=Brien (Galileo {Ire}--Tina Heights {GB}, by Shirley Heights {GB}) Levey 3 6 Casual Conquest (Ire) Moyglare Stud Farm Moyglare Stud Farm Weld (Hernando {Fr}--Lady Luck {Ire}, by Kris {GB}) Smullen 4 9 Centennial (Ire) Michael O=Flynn W Lazy T Ltd Gosden (Dalakhani {Ire}--Lurina {Ire}, by Lure) Sanders 5 4 Curtain Call (Fr) Mrs P K Cooper & Partners Niarchos Family Cumani (Sadler=s Wells--Apsara {Fr}, by Darshaan {GB}) Berry 6 1 Frozen Fire (Ger) M Tabor/D Smith/S Magnier Jurgen & Wolfgang Hoyer O=Brien (Montjeu {Ire}--Flamingo Sea, by Woodman) Heffernan 7 11 Hindu Kush (Ire) Susan Magnier AM O’Brien/J Crowley & P Magnier O=Brien (Sadler=s Wells--Tambora {GB}, by Darshaan {GB}) McCabe 8 3 New Approach (Ire) H R H Princess Haya of Jordan Lodge Park Stud Bolger (Galileo {Ire}--Park Express {GB}, by Ahonoora {GB}) Manning 9 5 Tartan Bearer (Ire) Ballymacoll Stud Farm Ballymacoll Stud Farm Stoute (Spectrum {Ire}--Highland Gift {Ire}, by Generous {Ire}) Moore 10 12 Upton Grey (Ire) H R H Princess Haya of Jordan Hascombe & Valiant Studs Gosden (Dalakhani {Ire}--Rosse {GB}, by Kris {GB}) Durcan 11 7 Washington Irving (Ire) D Smith/S Magnier/M Tabor Quay Bloodstock O=Brien (Montjeu {Ire}--Shouk {GB}, by Shirley Heights {GB}) O=Donoghue 12 2 Winchester Bertram Firestone Mr & Mrs Bertram Firestone Weld (Theatrical {Ire}--Rum Charger {Ire}, by Spectrum {Ire}) Shanahan All carry 126 pounds.

  • Pygmalion My Fair Lady
    a comparison of the first scene of: PYGMALION with the first scene of: MY FAIR LADY I-1-1 PYGMALION by George Bernard Shaw ACT ONE Scene One Covent Garden at 11.15 p.m. Torrents of heavy summer rain. Cab whistles blowing frantically in all directions. Pedestrians running for shelter into the market and under the portico of St. Paul's Church, where there are already several people, among them a lady and her daughter in evening dress. They are all peering out gloomily at the rain, except one man with his back turned to the rest, who seems wholly preoccupied with a notebook in which he is writing busily. The church clock strikes the first quarter. THE DAUGHTER (in the space between the central pillars, close to the one on her left) I'm getting chilled to the bone. What can Freddy be doing all this time? He's been gone twenty minutes. THE MOTHER (on her daughter's right) Not so long. But he ought to have got us a cab by this. A BYSTANDER (on the lady's right) He won't get no cab not until half-past eleven, missus, when they come back after dropping their theatre fares. THE MOTHER But we must have a cab. We can't stand here until half-past eleven. It's too bad. I-1-2 THE BYSTANDER Well, it ain't my fault, missus. THE DAUGHTER If Freddy had a bit of gumption, he would have got one at the theatre door. THE MOTHER What could he have done, poor boy? THE DAUGHTER Other people got cabs.

  • Longines Turf Winner Notes- Owner, Aga Khan
    H.H. Aga Khan Born: Dec. 13, 1936, Geneva, Switzerland Family: Children, Rahim Aga Khan, Zahra Aga Khan, Aly Muhammad Aga Khan, Hussain Aga Khan Breeders’ Cup Record: 15-2-0-2 | $3,447,400 • Billionaire, philanthropist and spiritual leader, Prince Karim Aga Khan IV is also well known as an owner and breeder of Thoroughbreds. • Has two previous Breeders’ Cup winners – Lashkari (GB), captured the inaugural running of Turf (G1) in 1984 and Kalanisi (IRE) won 2000 edition of race. • This year, is targeting the $4 million Longines Turf with his good European filly Tarnawa (IRE), who was also cross-entered for the $2 million Maker’s Mark Filly & Mare Turf (G1) after earning an automatic entry via the Breeders’ Cup Challenge “Win & You’re In” series upon winning Longines Prix de l’Opera (G1) Oct. 4 at Longchamp. Perfect in three 2020 starts, the homebred also won Prix Vermeille (G1) in September. • Powerhouse on the international racing stage. Has won the Epsom Derby five times, including the record 10-length victory in 1981 by the ill-fated Shergar (GB), who was famously kidnapped and never found. In 2000, Sinndar (IRE) became the first horse to win Epsom Derby, Irish Derby (G1) and Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe (G1) the same season. In 2008, his brilliant unbeaten filly Zarkava (IRE) won the Arc and was named Europe’s Cartier Horse of the Year. • Trainers include Ireland-based Dermot Weld, Michael Halford and beginning in 2021 former Irish champion jockey Johnny Murtagh, who rode Kalanisi to his Breeders’ Cup win, and France-based Alain de Royer-Dupre, Jean-Claude Rouget, Mikel Delzangles and Francis-Henri Graffard • Almost exclusively races homebreds but is ever keen to acquire new bloodlines, evidenced by acquisition of the late Francois Dupre's stock in 1977, the late Marcel Boussac’s in 1978 and Jean-Luc Lagardere’s in 2005.
