    March 30, 2013 ANIMAL KINGDOM PROVES DOMINANT ON WORLD’S RICHEST STAGE TEAM VALOR HOME-BRED CRUSHES $10M DUBAI WORLD CUP AT MEYDAN AFTER LONG ROAD, BIG HORSE MATCHES HIS KENTUCKY DERBY TRIUMPH NOW 4TH ON ALL-TIME EARNINGS LIST IN U.S., ROYAL ASCOT MAY BE NEXT In dominating the world’s richest race, Animal Kingdom cleared up any doubt of his sensational talent and punctuated one of the most unique profiles in American racing history. The Team Valor home-bred crushed an international field with a devastating new twist at Meydan racecourse on Saturday, pouncing from just off the pace and cruising home in hand and with his ears pricked in the $10-million Dubai World Cup. Almost two years since making history as the first horse to win the Kentucky Derby in his first start on dirt, Animal Kingdom emphatically ended a record of futility for American runners on the Animal Kingdom was awesome in delivering his first stakes win since the 2011 Kentucky Derby. grand stage of Meydan. Dubai Racing Club-Andrew Watkins photo In between those bookends, the big chestnut 5-year-old mixed in a second-place finish to eventual Horse of the Year Wise Dan in the Breeders’ Cup Mile on turf, his incredible rally hindered by traffic as he returned from an 8 ½-month layoff in the deepest field assembled in North America in 2012. In the World Cup, Animal Kingdom tied a neat and valuable bow around his résumé, back on the synthetic variety of racetracks that he glided over in his maiden win at Keeneland at 2 and in his first stakes triumph at Turfway Park at 3.

  • By Mike Shutty, Horseracingnation.Com Early Edition
    By Mike Shutty, HorseRacingNation.com Early Edition HORSE RACING NATION’S KENTUCKY DERBY SUPER SCREENER INTRODUCTION There are countless ways to dissect the probable Kentucky Derby field in search of the ultimate winner. Dosage Index, Dual Qualifier status, pedigree, Speed Ratings, prep race quality, Graded Stakes wins, workouts days before the Derby and a trainer’s Derby record are just a few of the criteria that people use when assessing a field of probable Derby contenders. These types of factors fall in and out of favor over the years and each has had its share of success in helping track down a Kentucky Derby winner. Each year, we are reminded of other important, proven screening criteria we should keep in mind as we handicap the Kentucky Derby. Examples would include the following: • Don’t bet to win on Derby entrants that have never run as a 2 year-old. Most recently, Curlin and Bodemeister tried to overcome this long-standing tenant but both came up a bit short in their respective Kentucky Derby endeavors. • Only one horse (Regret) has ever won the Derby off just 3 lifetime starts (make that only two horses now that Big Brown achieved this feat in 2008) • Post position 20 has never produced a winner (Big Brown busted that one as well and I’ll Have Another won from the 19 hole in 2012 so this screening criteria weakens some as a result) • Must have a final prep race run at the mile and eighth distance (Charismatic was able to break that barrier in winning the 1999 Kentucky Derby as have several second place Derby finishers) • Must

    January 9, 2012 ANIMAL KINGDOM MOVING FORWARD IN HIS COMEBACK AT FAIR HILL DERBY WINNER BREEZED SUNDAY MORNING FOR THIRD TIME IN 16 DAYS TRAINER MOTION WILL MOVE ECLIPSE FINALIST TO SOUTH FLORIDA SOON From David Grening of Daily Racing Form comes the following: Animal Kingdom, the 2011 Kentucky Derby winner, took another step toward his 2012 return to the races by working four furlongs in 50.40 seconds Sunday morning over the dirt surface at the Fair Hill Training Center in Maryland. Animal Kingdom and Toby’s Corner have been workmates in three straight moves on the dirt at Fair Hill. Photo by Maggie Kimmitt. Animal Kingdom worked in company with Wood Memorial winner Toby’s Corner, who was credited with the same time. Trainer Graham Motion said Animal Kingdom galloped out five furlongs in 1:03- and-change. Motion added this was Animal Kingdom’s first half-mile breeze, though last week he was credited with a half-mile move in 49 seconds. Motion said that was the gallop-out time following a three-furlong move. “I’m conscious of not overdoing it with him,’’ Motion said by phone. “Last week, he went from the three-eighths pole; this was a proper half-mile.’’ Whatever the distance, it was Animal Kingdom’s third breeze in 16 days. Motion and owner Barry Irwin have targeted the $10 million Dubai World Cup at Meydan on March 31 for Animal Kingdom with a prep race in the second or third week of February. Motion said that race could be anywhere from seven-eighths on dirt to 1 1/8 miles on turf either in Florida or possibly Dubai.
