LETTER FROM ASCOT: THE CARRIAGE by Dave Johnson BRIDGING THE GAP It was when I saw the carriage. It was GI Preakness S. morning this year, and I was throwing stuff I needed for my Sirius XM show into a bag. And then, I saw it again, out of the corner of my eye. Every television station had it on. You couldn't miss it. Live coverage of the wedding of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry. It was when I saw that gleaming ancient Landau carriage, one of five made for the Royal Family in 1863. The very one that carries the Queen to the races every day for the Royal Meeting at Ascot was now carrying Meghan and Harry to the cheers and waves of thousands. The whole world was watching the overflowing small town of Windsor. Only eight miles from Ascot racetrack. It was then I started to mentally list my early wagers for the upcoming meet. Cont. p9 (click here) Quality Road | Lane’s End photo by Chris McGrath IN TDN EUROPE TODAY Here's a Road that really is paved with good intentions. That, of course, is what they say about the one leading to hell-- SET FAIR FOR A THRILLING WEEK familiar, it might be said, to many who have tried to get a young Tom Frary takes gives us a taste of what to expect on the racing front at Royal Ascot today. Click or tap here to go stallion started. But Quality Road is taking his connections in straight to TDN Europe. entirely the opposite direction; to the breeding stratosphere, in fact. And the marvelous thing is that those connections include the charitable foundation which, still more than his equine dynasties, must qualify as the greatest bequest of the late Edward P. “Ned” Evans. As a result, a sensational run for the Lane's End stallion means that the philanthropist's twin legacies- -his passion for and the Edward P. Evans Foundation's dedication to finding a cure for Myelodysplastic Syndromes--are dovetailing in the most uplifting fashion. For while the final leg of the Triple Crown required top billing on the Belmont card, Quality Road's third and fourth Grade I winners of 2018 volunteered a valid contender to fill the void left by the premature loss of Justify's sire Scat Daddy. Five stakes winners in 24 hours--crowned by Abel Tasman in the GI Ogden Phipps S., Spring Quality in the GI Manhattan S., and Paved in the GII Honeymoon S. at Santa Anita--attested not only to Quality Road's potency but also to his versatility. They ranged from coast to coast; and from a turf sprinter at Woodbine to the dirt Classic model represented by Abel Tasman, winner of the last year.

Quality Road Bridging the Gap cont. from p1 winners from that pipeline: just a couple of days ago he had first This kind of diversity, equally associated with his late sire and second in a maiden race at Belmont. Here at Lane's End, Elusive Quality, qualifies Quality Road to become a sire of truly with A.P. Indy and Smart Strike and Kingmambo, we've seen international stature. how our best stallions have all had that moment when there Even as it stands, halfway through was a bit of doubt. And then they the campaign he already peers came on like crazy, so it's fun to see down on the established supersires. Quality Road doing the same thing. His four individual Grade I winners It's unbelievable. He's not only up in 2018, taking him to eight from his with those [top] horses, in many first four crops, at least double the respects he's surpassing them. tally of any sire in North America or “There's nothing more fun, for Europe; and he also leads all North those of us that do this, than when American stallions both by Black you've got a sire with his first Type winners and graded stakes 2-year-olds, and they start winning. winners.

And we're enjoying it Bill Farish | Keeneland photo money already exceeding immensely.” $6 million. Spectacular as his returns have been this year, Quality Road is “It's particularly exciting because his 3-year-old crop was only only consolidating the breakthrough he made with two Eclipse 81 foals,” noted Bill Farish of Lane's End. “So he's doing all this Champions in 2017. His fee had duly doubled to $70,000; and with a relatively small book, by today's standards. He has 117 you can be sure he will pretty soon be enrolled into the 2-year-olds coming along, and we're already starting to see six-figure club. TDN HEADLINE NEWS • PAGE 4 OF 11 • THETDN.COM TUESDAY • JUNE 19, 2018

In fact, for all the fluctuation in book sizes so common among young sires, he has scarcely missed a beat. The larger group of 2016 foals noted by Farish, for instance, reflects the fact that Quality Road's debut crop not only made him leading rookie by gross receipts at the Keeneland September Sale, but followed through and made him champion freshman of 2014 as well. (Yes, he basically had to ride out 2015--but Klimt helped him bounce straight back to be leading third-crop sire.) The trailblazer of his first crop was the Royal Ascot and Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf winner Hootenanny (Quality Road). That precocious dasher might not have been the kind of horse expected from a sire who himself failed to meet his reserve as a yearling and made his only juvenile start in November. But while it augurs well for the continued progress of his racing stock that Quality Road himself thrived as a 4-year-old--it was at that age, for instance, that Illuminant became the second Grade I winner in his first crop in the Gamely S.--the fact remains that he was precocious enough not only to post a triple-digit Beyer in that single start at two, but then to break track records in both the GII Fountain of Youth S. and GI Florida Derby.

Abel Tasman | Sarah K. Andrew Derailed from the by a quarter-crack, he resurfaced at Saratoga (in the Pletcher barn; previously with Jimmy Jerkens) and promptly collected his next track record in the GII Amsterdam S. over 6 1/2 furlongs. Admittedly there was a debacle that fall when he refused to load for the GI Breeders' Cup Classic, but Farish stresses how out of character that was. “I think a number of unfortunate things happened that day,” he said. “He was being rushed, he was the last to be loaded, they went right to the whip to get him in and it just blew his mind. It's understandable when you watch a tape of it, but he's not that way at all. He's a very typical stallion in a lot of ways: not overly aggressive and not overly kind, either--he's right down the middle.” (Watch the TDN's video on Bob Duncan, who worked with Quality Road after that Breeders' Cup incident.) TDN HEADLINE NEWS • PAGE 5 OF 11 • THETDN.COM TUESDAY • JUNE 19, 2018

Everything fell into place the following February, anyhow, when Quality Road won the GI Donn H. by 12 3/4 lengths--again breaking the track record, this time one he had set himself in the Florida Derby, for a Beyer of 121. Two other Grade Is would follow, in the Met Mile and the Woodward. So he retired to stud in 2011 with neon credentials. He was a brawny, tall, masculine specimen. And he had achieved far more on the track than his own remarkable sire, imposing himself in stallion-making races with a monstrous capacity to carry speed. Quality Road also had a classy and interesting family behind him. Evans bought his dam Kobla (Strawberry Road {Aus}) as a 4-year-old for $1,050,000 at the 1999 Keeneland November Sale. Having never won a race herself, she owed that pricetag to the exploits of her full-sister, Breeders' Cup Distaff winner Ajina (Strawberry Road {Aus}). Both had been bred and raced by Allen Paulson; likewise, their Grade II-winning dam Winglet (Alydar). Winglet was a half-sister to the dam of Bahri (), the sire of Sakhee (Bahri). Overall, this is a copper-bottomed family, tracing through Myrtlewood--who appears as fourth and fifth dam respectively of Mr Prospector and Seattle Slew--and Frizette. Throwing the robust flavours of Strawberry Road into this mix completes a pretty rugged foil to the trademark speed of Elusive Quality. Having raced until he was seven, the globetrotting Strawberry Road was only 15 when he died. If he was not If he came a very long way for the winner of two Grade IIIs on adequately mourned, despite producing stakes winners to foals turf, he had deep seams of class across his pedigree. His dam, at a clip better than one-in-ten, that probably reflects his indeed, ultimately descends from Frizette--meaning that the challenging antecedents. He combined an anonymous New great matriarch lurks on both sides of Quality Road's family tree. Zealand family with the high blood and relatively low For many breeders, Elusive Quality appealed purely as a performance of Whiskey Road, who was by Nijinsky out of conduit of Gone West's Mr. Prospector speed.

“We saw Kingmambo get Classic winners in Japan, France, England and the U.S. It's incredible how international he was, and it just vaults a horse to a whole other level in terms of popularity. Because there are just so many more mares in that international pool than there are strictly for a dirt horse in America. So I'm really anxious to see how some of those crosses work.”

Even though he does not have the great trainer, Aidan O'Brien, on his side, I did play the jockey who I think is the finest rider in the world right now, William Buick, to be the champion of the five day meet at 10-1. A jockey who has impressed me lately is Oisin Murphy, who as a teenager, rode jumpers for his uncle, Jim Culloty, in Ireland. I got 25-1 as a throwaway flyer.

It was a Grade I and I thought it was our best shot to win a Grade I with him, but now I know where we stand and I won’t try that again.” It’s a frustrating situation for Motion. He trains a talented horse, but is at a severe disadvantage in the majority of big races because most are run on hot days. He said he will not run him again until the fall, perhaps in a race like the GI Jockey Club Gold Cup, where he hopes he can get temperatures in the 50s or 60s.

SET FAIR FOR A THRILLING WEEK KING POWER LIGHTS by Tom Frary UP ROYAL WEEK For once, the elements have conspired to deliver a perfect spell of British summer for Royal Ascot week and the halcyon days begin on Tuesday with the G1 Queen Anne S. Aidan O=Brien is currently on 61 winners at the meeting and he conspires with Ryan Moore as the G1 Lockinge S. winner Rhododendron (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) looks to beat the colts in that feature and establish herself in the fellowship of the likes of Tepin (Bernstein) and Goldikova (Ire) (Anabaa). AWe were very happy with what she did in the Lockinge,@ O=Brien commented. AGiven it was her first really competitive run over a mile since the 1000 Guineas last year, I was impressed how well she coped with what was a well-run race. Sometimes it can take a horse a while to fully adjust to running back over a mile after running over middle-distances, so it wouldn=t be a big surprise if she could improve from Newbury.@ Belle Josephine & her colt by Pivotal | Goffs/Sarah Farnsworth Cont. p7 by Chris McGrath IN TDN AMERICA TODAY It couldn't happen without the auction, but that doesn't alter QUALITY ROAD BRIDGING THE GAP the reality that for many guests at the Goffs London Sale in Quality Road enjoyed a stellar weekend with his progeny and association with QIPCO the chance to buy a horse was pretty Chris McGrath has the details. Click or tap here to go straight to incidental. So even when seven of the first nine lots yesterday TDN America. failed to meet their reserve, there was little consternation among those who had convened from around the racing world for this unique garden party, in a royal park on the eve of Royal Ascot. They sipped drinks in the warm sunshine, they nibbled quails' eggs, and they admired the stoically motionless guardsmen mounted on four mighty cavalry horses. And then Alastair Donald and Ed Sackville stepped up to the plate anyway, spent ,2 million on six horses, and everything in Kensington Gardens was rosy again. At the end of the session, 13 of the 30 lots had been sold at an aggregate of ,3,710,000, for an average of ,285,385 and a median of ,300,000. Comparisons at a boutique horses-in-training sale are obviously of limited pertinence, but for the record these figures dipped pretty steeply on last year, when 12 of 19 lots changed hands for ,4,525,000 at an average of ,377,083 and median of ,340,000. But Donald had played a similarly redemptive role then, and spent virtually the same sum this time round (,2,105,000, compared with ,2,050,000 last year) for the same number of horses.

Besides manifesting his talent on the track, the grey is backed up by a fine page as the son of GSW Alla Speranza (GB) (Sir Percy {GB}) from the excellent Lanwades family of dual G1 Champion S. winner Aloborada (GB) (Alzao). The transaction took place too late for Srivaddhanaprabha to be able to register Shine So Bright in his King Power Racing silks for the G2 Coventry S. at Ascot today, but as Donald noted this is hopefully just the start. "He's going to be a miler in time," the agent said. "Karl Burke was underbidder, I think some of the owners were trying to buy another out, but I know he has a very high opinion of the colt." Then there was lot 10, Vintage Brut (Ire) (Dick Turpin {Ire}), homebred by Michael O'Brien and his wife Debra and sold here Alastair Donald signs for a purchase | Goffs/Sarah Farnsworth for ,280,000.

"So from that point of is Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha, the owner of Leicester City F.C. A view it makes a lot of sense." major new force on the bloodstock scene, he not only acquired "It's a good result," said O'Brien. "We changed our minds three four runners on the eve of the royal meeting this week, but also times since the National S., but we set a reserve of ,250,000 so the sale-topping lot: a three-for-the-price-of-one package we have to be very pleased. We've still got the mother, and a comprising the in-foal Belle Josephine (GB) (Dubawi {Ire}), with yearling half-sister by Firebreak (GB) (Charnwood Forest {Ire}), a Pivotal (GB) colt at foot. though we hope to sell her at Goffs later this year.

"She's obviously by a very good stallion in Dubawi," said Cont. p3 Sackville. "She has Mildenberger running for her, and had a very nice colt at foot. And of course she's in foal to Siyouni (Fr) (Pivotal {GB}), who as we saw again yesterday is becoming a very good sire. She's a lovely-looking mare, too. The owner bought one mare last year, but we'd hope that some of the better [racing] fillies, if proving themselves on the track, will be considered for the broodmare band in future."

>Bright= & >Brut= Join Power Fold... The Goffs London Sale worked equally well, for instance, for the patrons of two Yorkshire stables who came down to the capital and cashed in a pair of young horses whose promise reflects so well on their husbandry. One of these was lot 30, Shine So Bright (GB) (Oasis Dream {GB}), an impressive debut scorer for Karl Burke at Nottingham only eight days previously. He had gone through the ring twice before, knocked down for 57,000gns as a foal and i27,000 as a yearling, but here rocketed to ,375,000.

Junius Brutus (Fr) (Cockney Rebel {Ire}), selling as lot 23, was presented by Con Marnane of Bansha House, who is set for another exciting Ascot after a spectacular vindication of his perseverance with Different League (Fr) (Dabirsim {Fr}) in the G3 Albany S. last year.

Goffs London Sale Cont.

As for the large percentage of RNAs, some vendors are obviously viewing the sale as a bet-to-nothing. If an ambitious reserve is met, you win; if not, you still win, with the marquee experience of a runner at Royal Ascot. Henry Beeby, Goffs CEO, duly stressed the importance of "the ripple effect" for the company's brandCbeyond the bald figures of the auctionCin establishing such a prestigious niche for this sale, staged in association with QIPCO, in just five years. "Although the sale didn't match last year, such are the vagaries of horses-in-training sales and we're perfectly happy with the trade for the horses that sold," Beeby said. "This is a unique sale in many ways in that many vendors are happy to keep their horses and go to the royal meeting. So if they get a good price they're delighted, but they're also content to keep the horse and see it race at Ascot."

Bearing in mind that Siyouni did his winning from five to seven furlongs and was never tried beyond a mile, credit for Laurens's stamina must go to her dam Recambe, a Cape Cross mare who won over a mile and a quarter before moving up the distance scale, to gain a further success over 2900 metres--an extended mile and three-quarters--at Clairefontaine.

AI MMADE. VIDEO rode her this morning and she's just such an unbelievable horse to ride. Nothing is set in concrete yet but I think she could be ready to trial in something like three weeks to a month. She seems to have pretty close to all her attributes. She did a couple of pieces of pacework last week. It will be a test when we put her under trial or race conditions and give her a squeeze and see how she responds, but so far so good.@ Jameka=s most recent public appearance came in the sales ring at Magic Millions in June when she was bought outright by her breeders and part-owners Colin and Janice McKenna for A$2.6 million. As the winner of group races from seven furlongs to a mile and a half Jameka has little left to prove as a racehorse and her trainer is mindful that a return to racing will be dependant on the mare showing she can compete at the top. AI'm just giving her a nice, easy build-up,@ said Maher. AIf she DID YOU KNOW? does show me she is back to her best or somewhere closer to it, G1 Darley Prix Morny winner I am sure I can have a conversation with Colin and Janice to twist Lady Aurelia (Scat Daddy) their arm to give her another try.@ was tabbed as a “TDN Rising Star”
