A.P. Indy Passes Away at 31 SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 22, 2020 A.P. INDY PASSES TAKE CHARGE INDY PROVED A LOT OF PEOPLE WRONG AWAY AT 31 There has been a lot of conversation in these pages over the past few days about the difficulty sires have attracting mares in their third and fourth season. Many of them are sold overseas as a result. Once in a while, one gets off to such a good start in America that they are brought back when it is discovered that people simply gave up on them too soon. Case in point: Take Charge Indy (A.P. Indy--Take Charge Lady, by Dehere). The son of A.P. Indy is back at WinStar Farm after spending three years in Korea. The syndicate that owned him made the decision to sell him before any of his offspring had made it to the races, accepting an offer from the Korean Racing Authority. Cont. p6 A.P.

AIt is with extreme sadness that we today announce the passing of our beloved A.P. Indy, he was 31 years old,@ a statement from Lane=s End Farm read. AA.P. Indy passed away peacefully in his stall at the Lane=s End stallion complex, the barn he called home for 27 years. Champion A.P. Indy=s list of accomplishments range far and wide as his legacy continues to be carried through the outstanding performances of his sons and daughters across the globe. He was the most important and popular member of the Lane=s End team and we are deeply sorry to all who loved him as much as we did.@ Straight A=s Bred in partnership by William S. Farish and William S. Kilroy, A.P. Indy was a handsome youngster, and the emergence of his half-brother Summer Squall (Storm Bird) as the 1990 GI Preakness S. hero enhanced his pedigree by the time he was offered at Keeneland July two months later. The bay duly topped that boutique auction when selling to BBA Ireland for $2.9 million on behalf of Tomonori Tsurumaki.

Indy cont. from p1 A.P. Indy | Benoit Turned over to Neil Drysdale, A.P. Indy finished fourth as the favorite in his debut at Del Mar, then underwent surgery for an undescended testicle. He returned to rattle off three straight wins in 1991, capped by the GI Hollywood Futurity, and picked up where he left off in 1992 with wins in the GII San Rafael S. and GI Santa Anita Derby. That winning streak would have ensured him favoritism for the GI Kentucky Derby, but a quarter crack kept him in his stall during the Run for the Roses. Drysdale regrouped and sent the colt to New York, where he captured the GII Peter Pan S. and GI Belmont S. A.P. Indy made his next appearance in Woodbine=s Molson Million in September, but ran fifth at 3-5. After a terrible start in the GI Jockey Club Gold Cup the following month, he put in a strong late bid to claim third behind eventual champion older horse Pleasant Tap (Pleasant Colony) and 1991 GI Kentucky Derby hero Strike the Gold (Alydar). Three weeks later, he put matters to right in the GI Breeders= Cup Classic, rallying under regular rider Eddie Delahoussaye to seal Eclipse honors as Horse of the Year and champion 3-year-old. His career mark stood at 11-8-0-1 with earnings of $2,979,815. In Demand at Stud A.P. Indy headed to Lane=s End breeding shed as a mouth- watering stallion prospect, and delivered the goods. His first yearlings averaged $298,750 in 1995 (topped by the $700,000 Cromwell) and, from 45 named foals, he was represented by four black-type winners in 1996, headed by GSW Accelerator. Pulpit emerged as the favorite for the 1997 Kentucky Derby following wins in the GII Fountain of Youth S. and GII Toyota Blue Grass S., but sustained a knee chip when fourth on the first Saturday in May. A.P. Indy had a trio of fillies--Royal Indy, Runup the Colors and Tomisue=s Delight--win at the top level later in TDN HEADLINE NEWS • PAGE 4 OF 11 • THETDN.COM SATURDAY • FEBRUARY 22, 2020 A.P.

The ill-fated Tempera became his first Eclipse Award winner when she secured the 2001 GI Breeders= Cup Juvenile Fillies, and another 1999 crop member, Mineshaft, followed with a Horse of the Year campaign in 2003. Bernardini gave the stallion his first U.S. Classic win with his success in the 2006 GI Preakness S., and went on to earn honors as the year=s champion 3-year-old with additional wins in the GI Travers S. and GI Jockey Club Gold Cup. Rags to Riches came along in 2007 with an epic win over eventual Horse of the Year Curlin (Smart Strike) in the GI Belmont S., and claimed the Eclipse Award as the nation=s top 3-year-old filly. >TDN Rising Star= Honor Code, owned by Lane=s End in partnership with breeder Dell Ridge Farm, emerged from A.P. Indy=s final crop with a strong juvenile showing in 2013, finishing a close second in the GI Champagne S. before taking the GII Remsen S. and entering his 3-year-old campaign as an early favorite for the GI Kentucky Derby. Although he had an abbreviated sophomore season due to injury, the dark bay tallied graded wins in the GII Gulfstream Park H., GI Metropolitan H. and GI Whitney as a 4-year-old. Honor Code ended his career with a third behind American Pharoah in the GI Breeders= Cup Classic and retired to Lane=s End to stand alongside his pensioned sire. He was the champion older horse of 2015. A.P. Indy led the general sire list in 2003 and 2006, and has been represented by no fewer than 156 black-type winners (13% of foals) to date. His progeny have earned $137,238,550 since hitting the track in 1996. According to equineline.com, a total of 374 A.P. Indy yearlings have sold at public auction in the U.S. for a total of Filly ex Three Halos, Bred by John Penn Colt ex Dixie Babe Bred by Hubert Vester “ We are delighted with our Mo Town filly.

    THURSDAY, MAY 6, 2021 AMERICAN PHAROAH, SUPER TRAINERS IN CALIFORNIA: THE STORY IN NUMBERS PLETCHER, FISHER 2021 by Dan Ross Over the years, the rise of the so-called super trainer has INDUCTEES INTO HOF prompted many a clutched pearl by virtue of a perceived monopoly on the sport. Anecdotally, it can certainly appear as though the same few names wield an outsized impact. But what does the data say? The TDN has crunched the numbers in California from 2007 onward. This is far from a comprehensive overview of the situation, and what emerges is a picture that can be viewed from multiple angles. On the one hand, the numbers suggest that the biggest stables in the state have indeed consolidated their positions at the top during a long period of market contraction. Yet at the same time, other indicators afford tentative encouragement for the smaller players.

  • How John Liviakis Selects Mares and Plans Matings
    PHOTO CREDIT How John Liviakis selects mares and plans matings 22 / BloodHorse.com / FEBRUARY 13, 2016 / TheBloodHorse / BloodHorse BEHIND THE BREEDINGS BY LENNY SHULMAN hen the first blanket of snow covers the Bluegrass, we know that breeding season is about to commence. For the past Wfew years at this time Blood-Horse has asked prominent breeders to share their philosophies of choosing stallions for their mares, and this time around we travel out to California to talk with John Liviakis who, when not running his Liviakis Financial Com- munications, one of the leading financial public relations firms in the world, keeps busy reading pedigree analyses and checking in on his broodmares in Kentucky and Florida. Liviakis, a former Standardbred trainer, has bred grade I winner Gomo, multiple graded stakes winners Handsome Mike and Reneesgotzip, grad- ed stakes winners Tommy Macho, Mighty Caroline, and Renee’s Titan, and stakes winner Renee’s Queen. Although all of the above won added-money events within the last five years, Liviakis no longer owns any of their dams. Because Liviakis invests heavily in the young companies he helps to devel- op, his disposable income ebbs and flows, affecting whether he holds or sells bloodstock. “When you’re a breeder and have all these foals every year, your numbers go up geometrically,” Liviakis said from his Mill Valley, Calif., headquarters. “Unless you’re extremely wealthy, you can’t handle the numbers. So I’ve had to sell, and you can only sell the ones people want. But besides the financial rea- sons, I’m also a big believer in the fact that mares regress in their productivity as they get older and have more foals.
