Tattersalls July Sale Cont. from p1 "She is a very athletic individual and, obviously, she's a half-sister to a top sire, but most importantly, she is by Galileo," said Flanagan of his purchase. "No matter whether it's as a sire, or damsire, he is untouchable and he proved that again last week as the broodmare sire of Group 1 winner Invincibella (Aus). That was in Australia, which is probably where this filly will end up. My biggest regret from earlier in my career is not buying enough fillies by Galileo." Speaking after buying the 3-year-old colt, the Qatari trainer A large number of Middle Eastern buyers attend the July Sale commented, "He's been bought to be aimed at the Irish each year and a regular buyer is Gassim Mohammad Ghazali, Marketing Cup in February.

A total of 230 lots were offered in comparison to 270 in 2018, a drop of 15%, but the turnover grew marginally in spite of this to 5,458,800gns. An interesting element of any bloodstock sale is reading between the lines of a catalogue page; whether that be finding a physical more impressive than their breeding would suggest, or examining race form that may be far more intriguing than thought at first glance. One such example on Wednesday was Patrick Sarsfield (Fr) (lot 238), a 3-year-old son of Australia (GB) who had been placed on both his starts for Edward Lynam as a Leading Qatari trainer Gassim Mohammed Ghazali | Tattersalls juvenile.

MAVEN TARGETS MOLECOMB Wesley Ward has confirmed Richard Ravin=s undefeated Group 3 winner Maven (American Pharoah) an intended runner in the G3 Markel Insurance Molecomb S. at Goodwood on July 31. Having made a winning debut at Aqueduct in April, the American Pharoah colt travelled to Britain with the aim of providing his trainer with a third victory in the G2 Norfolk S. at Royal Ascot--only to be declared a non-runner on the morning of the race on account of the rain-softened ground. Switched to Chantilly, the chestnut colt saluted in the G3 Prix du Bois on June 29. Cross Counter | Horsephotos "We're heading for the Molecomb--that's the plan," Ward told PA.

An Animated Visual Experience For the 1994 America=s Cup, a company called Virtual Eye (launched out of a tiny office in Dunedin, New Zealand) began broadcasting 3D graphics, which depicted and explained the event in a way that had not been possible beforehand. The Virtual Eye sailing system gave people with or without an understanding of sailing an opportunity to experience every moment of a race. It would show an entire race course, including marks, lay-lines, advantage lines and distances between the boats, with displayed timing information from starts, mark rounding and finishes. Golf is one of the many sports that uses visual representations Virtual Eye=s approach was based on the idea that technology VirtualEye.tv should be used to enhance viewer comprehension of a sport, by Vicky Leonard and to deliver viewpoints that television cameras cannot.

Shippy is just half of a potent one-two punch for O'Neill, however, and ‘TDN Rising Star’ Comical (Into Mischief) stands a big chance as well under Javier Castellano.

Schuylerville cont. from p1 Unveiled May 26 at Santa Anita, the $100,000 Keeneland September pickup survived an early duel and showed an impressive turn of foot in the stretch, drawing clear to a six-length rout before galloping out even further ahead. Bought into by Gary Barber in the interim, she's worked five times since, capped by a half-mile move in :48.77 (7/25) July 5 at Big Sandy. “Both fillies are doing really well. With Shippy, we just took over her training, so we don't know that much about her, other than her debut was super impressive,” O'Neill told the NYRA notes team. “Comical has been pointed to this race for a while. She's been training really well coming into it. We have two nice fillies and two top riders. I'm optimistic for both.” Wesley Ward brings a ‘Rising Star’ to the party as well in Aurelia Garland (Constitution). Debuting as a 3-4 favorite May 2 at Belmont, the $185,000 Fasig-Tipton Saratoga purchase cruised to a five-length success. She tuned up for this with an easy three-furlong breeze over the local main track in :38 3/5 (4/5) July 5. Todd Pletcher saddles a pair as he looks for his seventh Schuylerville success in Three Diamonds Farm's Kiss the Girl (Into Mischief) and Suzanne and Michael Masters' Integral (Algorithms), two daylight winners on debut who would likely have to take a significant leap forward to repeat here. A potential live longshot is CTR Stables' Lady Fatima (Bodemeister), who finished fast to graduate on turf May 23 at Belmont and could benefit from an anticipated hot pace.

Hat Creek Racing's Abyssinian (Cairo Prince) breaks from the rail as the race's lone filly. A seven-length victress as a juvenile last spring, the gray was laid up for over nine months, but returned with a 6 3/4-length romp in her turf bow Feb. 28 at Gulfstream. Third against the boys in the Palisades Turf Sprint S. Apr. 4 at Keeneland, she was runner-up as the favorite in the Mamzelle S. last out May 11 at Churchill and shows a five-furlong bullet work in :59 2/5 (1/5) June 30 in Lexington. The hard-trying Gladiator King (Curlin) looks for his fourth stakes victory and first on grass. Scoring in his initial two turf tries last fall at Gulfstream West, the chestnut annexed the Inaugural S. Dec. 15 back on dirt at Tampa and was third at 16-1 in the turfy Texas Glitter S. four starts later Feb. 23 at Gulfstream. Fading to last after chasing a sizzling pace seven days later in the GII Xpressbet Fountain of Youth S., he upset the GIII Hutcheson S. at 12-1 Mar. 23 and repeated in the Roar S. Apr. 20. Taking a tough beat when second by a head in the GIII Chick Lang S. May 18 at Pimlico, he retreated to be fifth in the Ocala S. last out June 1 in Hallandale. Starlight Racing's Sombeyay (Into Mischief) is another graded stakes winner from last summer at Saratoga who makes his turf bow here. Capturing the GIII Sanford S. as a juvenile, the bay comes in off a nose second when earning a career-high 87 Beyer in the Lookin At Lucky S. June 2 at Monmouth. THE STAGE IS SET

According to COURSE NYRA, prices for dining on the first floor range from $150 per person on Sundays and Labor Day to $300 on Whitney Day, Aug. 3. A seasonal package price for the Founder’s Room is $6,000 per person, but other options are available. “It was the one piece of real estate that made sense to develop,” O’Rourke said. “I think everybody bought in on that and that is important whenever you do a project up here.

FERNUNG HOPES HE HAS SUCCESSOR TO named Khozan in a Gulfstream maiden. There was a lot of buzz about the horse, as a $1-million TRAGIC HEIR graduate of Fasig-Tipton's 2-year-old sale at the same track the by Chris McGrath previous March, a lucrative pinhook for Messrs. Hartley and Strange, the way the door of fortune revolves. In the first week DeRenzo, who had picked him out as a Saratoga yearling for of January 2015, Brent Fernung $350,000.

Khozan cont. "He fractured a hind sesamoid in his last breeze before the [GI] Florida Derby," recounts Fernung. "They took him to WinStar to rehab him, but when they put him back into training, it re-inflamed. So they made the decision then to retire him. [Fernung's wife] Crystal and I had driven up to the Breeders' Cup [at Keeneland] and while we were there, we went over and found this lovely horse." Fernung contacted Al Shaqab's U.S. rep Bradley Weisbord and a deal was sealed within 48 hours. Al Shaqab would retain a half-share, and Fernung introduced Gil and Marilyn Campbell at Stonehedge Farm South as partners on their side. "And everybody who's participated has bred their mares in what I like to call the old Florida method," Fernung explains. "Because it's been my experience over the years that Florida stallions are made by the farms that stand them, whereas Khozan | Louise Reinagel Kentucky sires are made by everybody, because they have that broader base of broodmares." "I've always had a lot of confidence in this horse," Fernung Fernung believes in Khozan with so evangelical a zeal that last says. "Usually I'm a little more circumspect, when it comes to December he offered to pay back the first 25 fees received in these stallions. But I said then that Khozan is poised to be one of 2019 (down to $4,000 from an opening $6,500) should he fail to the great Florida stories, with his talent level and his pedigree. I become Florida's leading freshman sire. was just crazily enthusiastic about him. Like any other stallion, And, as things stand, that bet could well pay off. Khozan blazed the third and now fourth years are usually the toughest. But ahead of his fellow rookies in the national standings, and once his 2-year-olds started running, Khozan bred more in June reached midsummer as the outright leading sire of 2-year-old than he did in April."

Khozan cont. Significantly, the boost to his reputation once his first crop was actually seen at the gallop was shared between the sales and the track. While none of his first yearlings reached six figures, Khozan began to get on a roll when his stock was tacked up and breezed--headlined by a $260,000 colt at the Fasig-Tipton Midlantic Sale. "He has that Distorted Humor shoulder and hip on him, looks quite a bit like his sire from a musculature standpoint," says Fernung. "And he seems to be passing that along. I sold a couple pretty well. I got $100,000 from Calumet Farm for a colt out of a Stormy Atlantic mare [at OBS April]. He was a bigger, rangier version of his sire, whereas the horse I sold for $150,000 the other day [at OBS June] was more like the female family, more like [broodmare sire] Montbrook than Distorted Humor. "So not only does Khozan get good-looking babies, they step up quite a bit when you see them move. Even back in March, when there were just three or four in the sale, I heard a lot of good comments from people that weren't really familiar with him, saying how good they looked on the racetrack. And I think he's just carried that on, all the way through." The real excitement is that Khozan's page absolutely entitles him to get horses that progress with maturity. Over the years, Florida powder kegs have often made an explosive start before being overhauled by the two-turn sires with classic genes. But besides Royal Delta, whose serial Grade I wins included two at ten furlongs, Khozan's dam Delta Princess (A.P. Indy) produced two other elite scorers, both over turf at Keeneland, in Crown Queen (Smart Strike), over nine; and Delta Prince (Street Cry {Ire}), winner of the Maker's 46 Mile S. as a 6-year-old this spring. The dam of Delta Princess was a Group 2 winner over ten furlongs in England, and she produced a full-sister to Delta Princess in Indy Five Hundred (A.P. Indy), a Grade I winner over nine--again on grass--in the U.S. Their half-brother Biondetti (Bernardini) won an Italian Group 1 over a mile in the mud as a juvenile. Khozan's third dam, moreover, extends a family sequence of Grade I success. It's interesting to see not just class, racing longevity and a degree of stamina in the family, but also a fair bit of turf distinction. That's another reason why Khozan, despite lacking the number and certainly the quality of mares that flocked to the intake's top draft, American Pharoah (Pioneerof the Nile), could have plenty more to offer besides trademark Florida precocity. And his own build also augurs well for the continued development of his stock: he arrived at Journeyman as a 3-year-old a touch under 16 hands; a year later, he measured 16.2hh.

Besides any personal satisfaction, however, play underpinning Khozan's brisk start. "His dam produced three Fernung also takes a more corporate pride in the horse's Grade I winners and the one thing nobody wants to potential, on behalf of the local industry--to which his underestimate is how talented he was himself: that second race, commitment is formalised by his presidency of the Florida running a mile, he just drew off them like he was just getting Thoroughbred Breeders’ & Owners’ Association (FTBOA). started."

And, with Khozan, it has given the Fernungs the chance to reiterate their ability to develop top-class talent at an affordable level of the market. Brent Fernung managed the early career of Congrats (A.P. Indy), champion freshman in 2010 before his move to Kentucky, during a stint as general manager of Cloverleaf Farm in Florida. During his Cloverleaf days, he also spent $130,000 for a 9-year-old mare by Smile, a 12-time winner named I'll Get Along, at Keeneland November 2001. Her weanling that year turned out to be Smarty Jones (Elusive Quality), and Cloverleaf were able to cash her in after his Kentucky Derby success for $5 million. Remarkably, this was the second time lightning had struck through Fernung on the first Saturday in May: earlier in his career he found a Florida-bred mare named Eileen's Moment Khozan | Lauren King (For The Moment), similarly before her son Lil E. Tee (At the Threshold) became a Derby winner. "Yeah, I've been fortunate," says Fernung. "It's one of those things that kinda defies logic: how we happened on the first mare, like three weeks before Lil E. Tee won what was then the [GII] Jim Beam S. And then it happened again.

Five foals from these mares realized final bids Beyond the issues of awareness and language, Montplaisir said in excess of ¥100 million (about $909,000) Tuesday, here is a other obstacles to nomination that she encountered included brief recap: backstretch workers not knowing that you don’t have to be a boss to nominate an employee, plus the notion that the paperwork process might be viewed as cumbersome, almost like “homework.” “That was a challenge along the way, trying to explain the benefits of nomination, and helping people understand that it doesn’t just have to be trainers or managers who can nominate people, that anybody can nominate anyone,” Montplaisir said. “I tried to convince them how this is a worthwhile thing that can be very rewarding and motivating to horse workers, and how it’s an honor just to even be nominated.” Montplaisir said that even when little logistical things didn’t go right on the trip--like getting lost in pouring rainstorms, missing the occasional highway toll booth, or even spending a night at a “potentially haunted” Airbnb in Delaware--she tried to handle them with good humor, knowing that the experience as a whole would trump the minor glitches. “I went to some very little tracks and to some very large tracks. The majestic view from the roof of Belmont Park was awesome, because I had never been there before. But the most amazing Hip 423 | jrha.or.jp thing that I saw along the way was how intertwined the whole industry is, no matter the size of the venue,” Montplaisir said.

EQUINE EQUIPMENT’S ‘FOR THE GOOD’ PROGRAM HELPS NEARLY A DOZEN AFTERCARE FACILITIES Equine Equipment concluded its inaugural “For the Good” program for 2019 with almost a dozen aftercare programs being helped by a donation of a Toro or Exmark commercial mower for the summer mowing season. The initiative was launched as a way to give back and show support for the horse industry and the equine athletes after they leave the track. Among the programs that were previously announced as recipients of mower donations were the Horse and Hound Rescue Foundation in Oklahoma, ReRun in New York (in memory of Rick Violette Jr.), After the Races in Maryland, War Horses at Rose Bower in Virginia, New Vocations at Mereworth Farm in Kentucky and Step Ahead Thoroughbred Retirement in Florida (in memory of Kent Stirling). In addition to those donations of a mower to be used in 2019, a Toro mower was donated to the Maryland Jockey Club and was raffled off prior to the GI Preakness S. with proceeds benefiting the Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance. New Vocations at Ridgewood Stables, MidAtlantic Horse Rescue Inc., LongRun Thoroughbred Retirement Society and the Standardbred Transition Alliance were also recipients of a Toro or Exmark mower.
