That part of the story has been well-documented. It is also worth reflecting on what this experiment means as a microcosm for the undeniable growth of grass racing in America. Owner Seth Klarman and trainer Chad Brown didn=t need to go to Europe to find good racehorses. Klarman, under his Klaravich Stables moniker, has raced Grade I winners like Cloud Computing (Maclean=s Music) and Practical Joke (Into Mischief), both trained by Brown. Brown is, of course, one of the preeminent trainers in the U.S. and the dominant top-level turf trainer. Brown=s best horses have included both American-breds and European imports sent to him with form. But these are both men who see opportunity and grab it; they didn=t reach the top of their respective professions by resting in their comfort zones. There is nothing new about importing European horses to America (and vice versa) and winning races. But during a time when high quality turf racing in the U.S. is growing sharply, the fact that a pair of dyed-in-the-wool Americans considered it TDN EUROPE • PAGE 2 OF 8 • THETDN.COM MONDAY • 12 NOVEMBER 2018 Grass is Greener for Klaravich Cont. and ones that can use themselves very well and are agile and Another of the vital cogs in the experiment was bloodstock not cumbersome.

It is not even a week since Newmarket=s Guineas were played out in what seemed like a wintry grip, but already we have a new, red-hot Derby favourite. Sir Dragonet (Ire) (Camelot {GB}) forced his way past his Ballydoyle peers at a rain-hit Chester and now it is up to stablemate Anthony Van Dyck (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) to regain kudos with the blue riband on the horizon. Sadly, Lingfield=s Derby Trial no longer carries Group 3 status and there have been many moons since High-Rise (Ire), Kahyasi (Ire) and Slip Anchor (GB) won en route to Derby glory, but last year=s G2 Futurity S. winner is the classiest participant in this listed Classic pointer for some time.

  • The 23Rd Shuka
    FROM: Masahiro Usuda General Manager, Media & Publicity Department, THE JAPAN RACING ASSOCIATION (JRA) DATE: October 14, 2018 SUBJECT: RESULT OF THE 23RD SHUKA SHO (G1) The Shuka Sho, established in 1996, is run over 2,000 meters at Kyoto Racecourse and the third leg of the fillies’ Triple Crown reserved for the season’s three-year-old fillies following the Oka Sho (Japanese 1000 Guineas, G1, 1,600m) and the Yushun Himba (Japanese Oaks, G1, 2,400m). The Queen Elizabeth II Cup (G1, 2,200m) was formally regarded as the third leg of the fillies’ Triple Crown until the race was opened to older fillies and mares; hence the Shuka Sho was established to take its place. Acquiring international G1 status in 2009, the Shuka Sho is open to a maximum of nine foreign runners. Gentildonna (JPN, by Deep Impact) became only the fourth filly in JRA history to claim the fillies’ Triple Crown title after Mejiro Ramonu (JPN, by Mogami; 1986), Still in Love (JPN, by Sunday Silence; 2003) and Apapane (JPN, by King Kamehameha; 2010), and proceeded to achieve greater accomplishment within her three-year-old season by winning the Japan Cup (G1, 2,400m) against a powerful field which contributed to earning the season’s highest honor of JRA’s Horse of the Year award in 2012. Almond Eye, winner of the Oka Sho-Yushun Himba made her bid to become JRA’s fifth filly to win all three of the fillies’ Triple Crown in her first-up run of her fall campaign. The race was also the first start of the fall for 2017 Best Two-Year-Old Filly Lucky Lilac.

  • Pharoah Millionaire Leads On-Par Arqana
    SUNDAY, 12 MAY 2019 THE KING IN HIS COUNTING HOUSE PHAROAH MILLIONAIRE Over the next few days, the European turf flat season LEADS ON-PAR ARQANA increases in temperature and before its reigning champion Too Darn Hot (GB) (Dubawi {Ire}) re-enters the fray at York the regal presence of Persian King (Ire) (Kingman {GB}) will agitate the thermometer at ParisLongchamp on Sunday. Out on his own in class terms as he lines up for the G1 The Emirates Poule d=Essai des Poulains, Godolphin and Ballymore Thoroughbred Ltd=s >TDN Rising Star= will take Andre Fabre past Francois Boutin=s tally of six winners if he follows the script as it is laid out. The only horse to beat Magna Grecia (Ire) (Invincible Spirit {Ire}), with their G3 Autumn S. tussle still strong in the memory, he cut an improved figure on his emphatic return in this Classic=s premier trial, the course-and-distance G3 Prix de Fontainebleau on Apr. 14. Victory would provide Invincible Spirit (Ire) and his exciting son Kingman with a Guineas double and there are seemingly very few negatives. Fabre sees it that way and said, AObviously I was very pleased to see Magna Grecia win as he did last week. He=s in good shape. The ground will probably be a bit soft for him, but he will handle it--most Kingman=s handle it quite well. Andre Fabre and Laurent BenoitBthe trainer and purchaser of Cont. p7 the sale-topping American Pharoah colt | Zuzanna Lupa By Emma Berry DEAUVILLE, France--Expectations were running high ahead of the Arqana Breeze-Up Sale and, for some, hope turned to delight as the auction delivered the first, and what will likely remain the sole, seven-figure breezer of the European season.
