Steady Trade Continues at Obs June

FRIDAY, JUNE 14, 2019

TAKING STOCK: TRACY FARMER=S CLASSIC STEADY TRADE CONTINUES By Sid Fernando Tracy Farmer, owner of Shadowlawn Farm in Midway, Ky. with AT OBS JUNE wife Carol, is a native Kentuckian with a distinct accent that blends hints of the American Midwest in a gravelly southern drawl. He wasn't feeling well enough to travel to Belmont Park for the last leg of the Triple Crown series, instead watching the proceedings with interest with Carol from their home on the farm. No one else was present, he said. His homebred colt Sir Winston (Awesome Again), born and raised at Shadowlawn, was the 10-1 half of trainer Mark Casse's entry with Gl Preakness winner War of Will (War Front), but Farmer thought the distance of the 12-furlong Gl Belmont S. would suit his colt. AThe [GIII] Peter Pan [S.], when he had the 100 [Beyer], and he had to close, the jockey, [Joel] Rosario, said he could do it. He could close a mile and half. He said distance didn't hurt him at all, he could run right on,@ Farmer said. AAnd you and I know, Awesome Again won the [GI] Breeders' Cup Classic and gets those types. So, Rosario said he could win, and he did.@ Cont. p11 Hip 653 | Tibor & Judit Photography by Jessica Martini IN TDN EUROPE TODAY OCALA, FL--Trade continued to be steady during the second INTERNATIONAL CREW ADDS COLOUR TO ASCOT session of the Ocala Breeders= Sales Company=s June Sale of 2- Participants from as far afield as Singapore, Australasia and Year-Olds in Training Sale in Central Florida Thursday, with Japan are gearing up for a week to remember at Royal Ascot numbers ticking up from the auction=s corresponding 2018 next week.

STRADIVARIUS NUMBER ONE FOR DETTORI INTERNATIONAL CREW Frankie Dettori will no doubt have an enviable book of rides ADDS COLOUR TO ASCOT next week at Royal Ascot, and the 48-year-old Italian has nominated the G1 Gold Cup title defender Stradivarius (Ire) (Sea The Stars {Ire}) as Athe one I=m looking forward to riding.@ Stradivarius was one of Britain=s most admirable horses in training last season, sweeping all five starts and clinching the inaugural ,1-million stayers= million bonus. Dettori was aboard the chestnut for a successful reintroduction in the G2 Yorkshire Cup on May. 17 and he said, "He is doing very well and is very fresh. He has become the people's favourite horse. The great thing about him is that he wears his heart on the sleeve, and he never goes down without a fight and people appreciate that. "The Queen only comes down to give the trophy out for the Gold Cup and Diamond Jubilee, so it is an honour to receive the trophy from her," Dettori added. Cont. p5

Singapore raider Lim=s Cruiser in Newmarket | Emma Berry IN TDN AMERICA TODAY TAKING STOCK: TRACY FARMER’S CLASSIC By Emma Berry Sid Fernando dissects the mating of last weekend’s GI Belmont S. NEWMARKET, UK--In a week in which astronomical winner Sir Winston (Awesome Again). Click or tap here to go prize-money has been a topic of debate in international racing, straight to TDN America. the record ,7.3 million on offer at Royal Ascot may not stand up against some newer carnivals but the five days of first-class racing at The Queen's home course remains the meeting with the greatest prestige, never mind its 251-year history. Horses representing nine different nations will line up at Ascot next week, with the home guard being challenged by a regular strong team from Ireland, as well as France, the Czech Republic, America, Australia, New Zealand, Japan and Singapore. International raiders arrived in Britain as early as March, led by the Australian mare Houtzen (Aus) (I Am Invincible {Aus}), who, along with Deirdre (Jpn) (Harbinger {GB}) from Japan, New Zealand sprinter Enzo's Lad (Aus) Testa Rossa {Aus}), and the Singapore-based Lim's Cruiser (Aus) (Casino Prince {Aus}), is currently resident at Abington Place in Newmarket, which has been a temporary home over the years to Royal Ascot winners such as Black Caviar (Aus), Takeover Target (Aus) and Scenic Blast (Aus).

International Crew Adds Colour To Ascot cont. from p1 With Wesley Ward's team of eight being stabled at Manton in Wiltshire along with Breeze Easy LLC's Imprimis (Broken Vow), it was left to the Abington Place quartet to parade before the media during Ascot's official press event on Thursday morning. After an extremely dry spring, the heavens have opened over the last few days in the south of England. The visitors have had to cope with unusually cold and wet weather in the week building up to the Royal meeting, while two race meetings in the country were abandoned through waterlogging on Thursday.

New Zealand sprinter Enzo=s Lad | Emma Berry

However, the conditions have been welcomed by Ascot's Clerk of the Course Chris Stickells, whose team has been spared the extra task of watering the course. He said, "Clearly it's not going to be lightning-fast ground. We've had 80mm so far this week but the rain band is disappearing, and after Saturday we're unlikely to see much rain, so it's highly likely that we will have good ground for the meeting." It is also not of concern for Joe Orseno, trainer of the multiple-winning turf sprinter Imprimis, for whom this is a first runner in Britain. His 5-year-old gelding, who arrived in Britain on June 2, holds entries for both the G1 King's Stand S. on Tuesday and Saturday's G1 Diamond Jubilee S. "He's run over a hard surface and he's taken it well, and last year at Pimlico he handled a really wet surface well," said Orseno, who travelled to Newmarket to join the press conference. "He doesn't have to take his track with him. I'd rather run over a good track but if it rains we'll still be there." He added, "I had him training in Florida and it's a little warm there so when he got here he welcomed the chillier weather.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR SECTIONAL TIMING ELIMINATES GUESSWORK This letter is written in response to Pat Cummings=s Op/Ed on sectional timing. I am a firm believer in the use of sectional times. I explain the need for them to my friends as follows: There is no person with Pure Zen | Scoop Dyga the eyesight to measure the relative speeds of two horses racing against each other. Sectional times enlighten us to possibilities we never entertained. For example, they often tell us that Horse B went past Horse A not because Horse B accelerated but FIND US ON FACEBOOK because Horse B slowed down less than Horse A. Yet without www.facebook.com/thoroughbreddailynews sectional data, racing journalists frequently conclude that the winning horse was accelerating.

1980s by a transfusion of American blood-largely channelled DERBY WINNER LATEST TO through sons of 1964 Kentucky Derby winner Northern Dancer (CAN). JUSTIFY INTERNATIONAL Galileo himself, of course, is by Northern Dancer's most dominant son in Europe, Sadler's Wells (USA). And Anthony Van TRAFFIC Dyck's damsire Exceed And Excel, though he raced in Australia and then went to stud for Coolmore's great rival Sheikh Mohammed, represents a double conduit of the great patriarch: he is by Danehill, principal disseminator of the Northern Dancer revolution in Australia, out of a mare by Lomond. In broader terms, however, it is arguably no less instructive that Anthony Van Dyck's next three dams are all by resonant American influences: Gone West (USA), Storm Cat (USA) and Alydar (USA). This section of the family tree, then, has the densest of Bluegrass dirt foliage. Gone West and Storm Cat are both out of mares by Secretariat (USA); while Alydar is by Raise A Native (USA), who was also responsible for Gone West's sire Mr Prospector (USA). So it's hardly just through the top-and-bottom presence of Northern Dancer that Anthony Van Dyck has again proved the transferability and transformative properties, in extremely Derby winner Anthony Van Dyck | Racing Post diverse racing environments, of American dirt genes. With Justify (USA) (Scat Daddy {USA}) now joining American Pharoah (USA) (Pioneerof The Nile {USA}) on the shuttle run By Chris McGrath from Coolmore's Kentucky branch at Ashford, Tom Magnier An Epsom Derby winner out of an Australian mare? It may feel believes that Anthony Van Dyck captures a key moment in the like the bloodstock world has shifted on its axis-but if you look evolution not just of his own operation but also of the global closer, the centre of gravity remains exactly the same. And, with industry. Because he distils not only the improvement in the a second U.S. Triple Crown winner now being made available to quality of Australian blood, during the shuttling era, but also the Australian breeders, it's called Coolmore. ongoing genetic benefits of intercontinental cross-pollination. Anthony Van Dyck (Ire) is the record-equalling fourth Derby "It all started, for us, with U.S. dirt," Magnier says. "My winner by Galileo (Ire), who bestrides Coolmore's foundation grandfather built Ballydoyle and Coolmore on those horses. farm in Ireland; while his dam Believe'N'Succeed was exported From Northern Dancer he found Nijinsky (CAN); and Sadler's to join his harem there after her acquisition by Tom Magnier, Wells, who gave us Galileo; and Danzig, who in this part of the principal of Coolmore Australia, for Aus$1.1 million at the Magic world obviously means Danehill, and then onto Fastnet Rock.

You look at everything from Choisir (Danehill duly satisfied both formulae that have gained increasing trust Dancer {Ire}) to Merchant Navy (Fastnet Rock): Australia has during Galileo's reign: firstly as a generic source of speed and, really come up there with the best marketplaces. But if you look more specifically, as a Danehill-line cross. back, the American dirt horses is where it all started. That's why Yet the reality is that this is just a fresh turn of the same wheel we hope that adding American Pharoah, and now Justify as well, that has driven Coolmore from the outset, when Magnier's to the gene pool down here will reap its rewards in years to father John and grandfather, the late Vincent O'Brien, radically come." invigorated the European gene pool in the 1970s and early TDN AUSTRALIA/NEW ZEALAND • PAGE 2 OF 3 • THETDN.COM FRIDAY • 14 JUNE 2019

A personal view is that the American dirt horse has renewed "The book of mares Justify is going to cover here, I'd say we'll relevance in a global market when one-dimensional speed has, never have seen the like of it," Magnier enthuses. "Pharoah got in many theatres, diluted Classic quality. In Australia, an great foals, obviously.

I think you have to look at that pretty closely." The example of Anthony Van Dyck shows how the arrival of new American blood in Australia's turf environment has the potential to spread ripples right across the world-not least at a time when so many breeders in Europe, in Magnier's words, "are into cheap speed at the moment." The Autumn Sun is another good example of Australia tapping into the best of the international pool, being by Danehill's son Redoute's Choice out of a Galileo mare bred in Europe by the Aga Khan. But if he showed that Galileo blood works every bit as well here, it remains an abiding mystery why a breed-shaping sire in Europe should have gained relatively little traction during his own sojourns early in his career. Tom Magnier actually believes Galileo did better here than is generally allowed, but

But the point is that "The sport has become so global now," Magnier concludes. when you look at all the good horses of the moment, every "And I'd say we're only seeing the start of it." single one is influenced by the shuttle stallions. The whole thing has gone full circle." Magnier notes that the great Winx, raised on the Coolmore farm, was herself by a dirt runner in Street Cry (Ire). And it's worth adding that her second dam was by a son of Northern Dancer. Street Cry had plenty of turf performers in his background, though the fact that he was by Machiavellian Does Parochialism Exist in the Marketplace? reminds us that Northern Dancer's dam, Natalma (USA), multiplies her influence even beyond that of her son: Machiavellian (USA) was out of her grand-daughter Coup De Victoria Plans For Peace, But Ready For War Folie (USA).
