The 5-year-old gelding has been on the board in all four starts this year. After finishing second to Vazirabad (Fr) (Manduro {Ger}) in the G2 Dubai Gold Cup in March, Big Orange was third behind fellow Cup-bound expatriate Exosphere (GB) (Beat Hollow {GB}) in the G2 Jockey Club S. Apr. 30. He has since won the G2 Princess of Wales=s S. and G2 Qatar Goodwood Cup. Big Orange was assigned a weight of 56kg for the Melbourne Cup.

Bernick, speaking at Keeneland this week during the September Yearling Sale, said he plans to concentrate his racing stable in the U.S. for the foreseeable future, but he admitted acquiring European and other international bloodlines has become an important aspect of his business plan. He has done so by buying a handful of racehorses, foals and yearlings privately and bringing them back to the U.S., as well as sending mares to Ireland to be covered by the likes of Galileo (Ire) and his Classic-winning son Gleneagles (Ire). I think pedigrees are global and buyers are global now,@ Bernick said. AHaving been to Australia and to Europe, I think the only market that doesn=t think internationally is probably the U.S. So many of the pedigrees work here, and sometimes being able to breed to horses like Galileo and Gleneagles, horses that have worked here--Gleneagles, at least, with his female family through Giant=s Causeway--I think really adds an appeal to this market that maybe some other people don=t necessarily have.@ Cont. p2 TDN EUROPE/INTERNATIONAL • PAGE 2 OF 11 • THETDN.COM THURSDAY • 15 SEPTEMBER, 2016 Bernick noted that Glen Hill has three Galileo yearlings that it will race next year. One of those, a colt who is the first foal out of the Grade I-placed Emerald Gold (War Front), was a $725,000 buyback at Fasig-Tipton=s Saratoga Sale.

    The Use of the Saber in the Army of Napoleon

    Acta Periodica Duellatorum, Scholarly Volume, Articles 103 DOI 10.1515/apd-2016-0004 The use of the saber in the army of Napoleon Bert Gevaert Katholieke Universiteit Leuven (Belgium) Hallebardiers / Sint Michielsgilde Brugge (Belgium) [email protected] Abstract – Though Napoleonic warfare is usually associated with guns and cannons, edged weapons still played an important role on the battlefield. Swords and sabers could dominate battles and this was certainly the case in the hands of experienced cavalrymen. In contrast to gunshot wounds, wounds caused by the saber could be treated quite easily and caused fewer casualties. In 18th and 19th century France, not only manuals about the use of foil and epee were published, but also some important works on the military saber: de Saint Martin, Alexandre Muller… The saber was not only used in individual fights against the enemy, but also as a duelling weapon in the French army. Keywords – saber; Napoleonic warfare; Napoleon; duelling; Material culture; Historical European Martial Arts (HEMA); History “The sword is the weapon in which you should have most confidence, because it rarely fails you by breaking in your hands. Its blows are the more certain, accordingly as you direct them coolly; and hold it properly.” Antoine Fortuné de Brack, Light Cavalry Exercises, 18761 I. INTRODUCTION Though Napoleon (1769-1821) started his own military career as an artillery officer and achieved several victories by clever use of cannons, edged weapons still played an important role on the Napoleonic battlefield. Swords and sabers could dominate battles and this was certainly the case in the hands of experienced cavalrymen.
