Cross Traffic by his Breeders= Cup-winning daughter Jaywalk; Goldencents, by GII Louisiana Derby winner By My Standards. We talked with Spendthrift=s Stallion Sales Manager Mark Toothaker about the pair.

TDN: How gratifying is it for the farm to launch a pair of successful stallions that is dominating their crop right now?

MT: It's a very competitive world that we're in for these stallion prospects and for Cross Traffic and Goldencents to have been 1-2 on the freshman sire list last year, and to be able to continue that on the cumulative second-crop list this year helps us because breeders look at that. It helps us on getting the phone to ring, and it's easy for us when we call folks to talk to them about bringing their mare over here to breed, to be able to show them the success that we're having. And I think it really helps us moving forward as we're out looking at other stallion prospects to be able to bring into the fold here at Spendthrift.

TDN: Let=s start out with Goldencents, who was the second TDN: Are you seeing any qualities of his or of Into Mischief that leading first-crop sire last year and currently holds a narrow you think are being particularly passed on? advantage over Cross Traffic. MT: The thing that we heard from everyone on Into Mischief as MT: We wound up breeding 180 mares to him both of his first those horses hit the track was, "I don't know what Into Mischief two years here. And once the foals got on the ground, breeders has, but he has IT." These horses, they want to win. It doesn't couldn't have been happier.

And that's what we're seeing with horses got to the racetrack last year, then that's when all the Goldencents with these winners coast to coast, and even a excitement started. And he had so many winners and a couple winner over in Dubai. They've got the ability to perform at a of stakes horses off the bat. We kept looking for that big, graded very high level.

Spendthrift Second-Crop Sires cont.

Cross Traffic | Spendthrift Cross Traffic had a lot of ability, and this raw that you don't see every day. And we were fortunate enough to be able to land him. We were able to get a very good book of mares to him his first year, and breeders liked the foals. And like a lot of young horses, we had to fight and claw for every mare in year three. But once these horses got to the track and started training, we started getting a lot of calls out of Ocala that, "Hey, I've got a Cross Traffic I really like."

TDN: And his conformation?

MT: A lot of the Unbridled's Songs are heavy-made horses. Some of them are very big horses. He's a nice-sized horse at 16.2, but he's a little bit of a lighter frame-type horse, and he=s passing that on to a lot of his progeny. They look like they're going to be sound horses with a high cruising speed like he had. They're very efficient movers. What we loved about Cross Traffic's pedigree was the brilliance that you get from Unbridled's Song. But what we liked about his mother is that she was a two-time Grade I winner that Richard Mandella trained. She was a hickory mare that was very sound and very durable. And we were hoping that the combination of the brilliance of Unbridled's Song with her ability to be able to stay sound on the track would set him up to be a very successful sire. And the success is being proven out every day on the track.

TDN: I believe that both of these horses were involved in your >Share the Upside= program. How has that helped you develop successful stallions here at Spendthrift?

Spendthrift Second-Crop Sires cont. >HONOR= RECORDS FINAL KEE DERBY WORK MT: >Share the Upside= is our cornerstone program here at Spendthrift. What it does is ensure us two good books of mares. Breeders are able to make a two-year commitment on most of the stallions. It gives people a feeling of ownership with the horses. They're out there promoting the horse out on the street to other breeders, that, "Hey, I'm involved on Cross Traffic, I'm involved on Goldencents." It feeds off of itself. This program has helped us to be able to get so many of these young horses off to a good start.

TDN: Explain the difference between that and the Safe Bet program.

MT: With the Safe Bet, Mr. Hughes was trying to figure out a way to be able to get folks to breed to horses that are going to have runners this year. In this business, nobody wants to get caught with one that doesn't work out. Mr. Hughes came up Code of Honor | Coady with the Safe Bet program and it has been very popular for us. A breeder signs up for a $6,000 stands-and-nurses contract, or William S. Farish=s Code of Honor (Noble Mission {GB}) $3,500 in the case of some stallions. But in 2019, if the stallion completed his final Keeneland-based preparatory move ahead doesn=t have a graded stakes winner, it's free.

TOO DARN HOT WILL PRETTY POLLYANNA STILL UNDER GUINEAS CONSIDERATION MISS GUINEAS Group 1 winner Pretty Pollyanna (GB) (Oasis Dream {GB}), who won the G1 Darley Prix Morny in August, is still under consideration for the May 5 G1 QIPCO 1000 Guineas at Newmarket trainer Michael Bell told Racing Post on Saturday. Racing in the colours of Bill and Tim Gredley, the bay was originally aimed at the G3 Nell Gwyn S. which went the way of Qabala (Scat Daddy) at HQ on Apr. 16. Also successful in the G2 Duchess of Cambridge S. last July, Pretty Pollyanna=s connections are considering turning the filly back in trip and pointing toward the G1 Commonwealth Cup at Royal Ascot in June. She was last seen running third to Iridessa (Ire) (Ruler of the World {Ire}) in the G1 Fillies= Mile at Newmarket on Oct. 12. AThere's no definite decision, but the Guineas is still very much on the table," said Bell to Racing Post. "The filly looks well and we just need to get through another couple of tests. She's not a Too Darn Hot winning the Dewhurst | Racingfotos.com confirmed runner, but at this stage it's on the table and I'd say intended."

Undefeated G1SW Too Darn Hot (GB) (Dubawi {Ire}) has been ruled out of an intended start in the May 4 G1 QIPCO 2000 Guineas at Newmarket by trainer John Gosden, Racing Post reported Sunday afternoon. Previously pointed at the G3 Greenham S. won by Mohaather (GB) (Showcasing {GB}), the G1 Darley Dewhurst S. hero and English highweighted juvenile colt missed an intended start in that Classic pointer due to heat in a splint bone. The Lord Lloyd-Webber colourbearer previously scored in a Sandown maiden in August, the G3 S., and the G2 Champagne S. prior to his Group 1 win. AAlthough he's shown great improvement in the last nine days, Too Darn Hot will not be ready in time to run in the 2000 Guineas,@ Gosden said of the >TDN Rising Star= to Racing Post. "It's unfortunate but it's only two weeks away and that does not allow us sufficient time to get the required work into him. Pretty Pollyanna | Scoop Dyga Consequently he'll miss Newmarket. The two races we have in mind now are both next month, the [May 16] G2 Dante S. at York and the [May 25] G1 Irish 2000 Guineas at The Curragh." IN TDN AMERICA TODAY After Too Darn Hot=s defection, the Coolmore partners= G1 Middle Park S. victor and fellow >Rising Star= Ten Sovereigns (Ire) Q&A: SPENDTHRIFT’S 1-2 SECOND CROP SIRES (No Nay Never) is the new Guineas favourite, while Too Darn Kelsey Riley chats with Spendthrift’s Mark Toothaker about Hot remains the June 1 G1 Investec Derby pick at 6-1. young sires Cross Traffic and Goldencents.

I=ve always remembered where I come from, and I love riding for the trainers out there [Warwick Farm]. You know how hard these guys work, but they don=t get the credit they Pierata | Bronwen Healy deserve.@ All Aged runner-up Osborne Bulls, who was the $2.80 favourite, is beginning to make his own name as a perennial by Richard Edmunds big-race placegetter.

Berry presented Pierata on the outside at the top of the straight, and he went into overdrive and charged to the lead just past the 200-metre mark. Osborne Bulls (Street Cry {Ire}) dived through on his inside in a determined bid to continue owner Godolphin=s Group 1 gold rush in Australia this season, while Siege of Quebec (Fastnet Rock) and Champagne Cuddles (Not a Single Doubt) came home with big strides out wide. But this time there would be no denying Pierata, who crossed the finish line a long neck ahead of Osborne Bulls. The 1400 metres were run in 1:20.64. AHe travelled so sweetly for me in the run,@ Berry said. AAt the top of the rise, on the better going, he was able to let down with that signature turn of foot he has got. I thought Hughie [Bowman, on Osborne Bulls] was going to get me at the 100 metres, but my bloke actually pulled away from him late. He Some of Pierata=s happy connections | Bronwen Healy deserved to win, he is a quality colt and I=m sure there will be a lot of studs knocking on the door now.@ TDN AUSTRALIA/NEW ZEALAND • PAGE 2 OF 3 • THETDN.COM SUNDAY • 21 APRIL 2019
