Almanzor a Worthy Champion SUNDAY, 11 SEPTEMBER, 2016 ASTERN GOOD AS GOLD ALMANZOR A The regard in which Astern (Aus) (Medaglia d'Oro) is held in the Godolphin camp was plain to see in the prolonged WORTHY CHAMPION celebrations of jockey James McDonald after Saturday=s A$1- million G1 Golden Rose S., which started before the colt had crossed the line victorious and continued all the way back down the walkway to the winner's enclosure. Beaten only once when down the field in last year's G1 Golden Slipper, Astern is now a five-time winner, with his most important triumph to date in Rosehill's G1 Golden Rose S. setting him up for a trip to Melbourne and a tilt at the G1 Caulfield Guineas on Oct. 8. Drawn in stall 12 of 14, race favourite Astern was taken back from the start by McDonald to settle in the second half of the pack as a fast first 200 metres slowed to a steadier tempo around the bend in the 1400-metre contest. Steering a wide berth off the turn, McDonald eased the colt to the front and kicked for home to leave his rivals toiling in his wake.

Allowed to saunter around in rear by Christophe Soumillon with Success Days (Ire) (Jeremy) predictably providing the generous pace, the 7-1 shot was still on the bridle out wide at the top of the straight as the leaders started to pay for their early efforts.

  • Heart Leads Redvers to Sea the Stars Colt
    WEDNESDAY, 23 OCTOBER 2019 SMULLEN: PROMOTION OF THE SPORT IS KEY HEART LEADS REDVERS TO By Pat Smullen SEA THE STARS COLT Oisin Murphy didn't end up with a big winner on Saturday but he's had a big year and that is the important thing. On Saturday I was thinking back to the work rate he has put in this year. He has ridden all over, travelling by plane, by helicopter, however he could get there to ride horses at two different meetings in a day, wherever they may be. His work ethic is something that needs to be applauded--that's what you need to do to be champion jockey. Oisin is not only an excellent rider but he is great for the game. He promotes our industry extremely well and I hope he does so for many years to come. I must admit, earlier in the year I was hoping that Danny Tudhope would be able to pull it off as the work that Danny has to put in to maintain his weight is phenomenal, and nobody sees that behind the scenes, but it wasn't to be.

    H.H. Aga Khan Born: Dec. 13, 1936, Geneva, Switzerland Family: Children, Rahim Aga Khan, Zahra Aga Khan, Aly Muhammad Aga Khan, Hussain Aga Khan Breeders’ Cup Record: 15-2-0-2 | $3,447,400 • Billionaire, philanthropist and spiritual leader, Prince Karim Aga Khan IV is also well known as an owner and breeder of Thoroughbreds. • Has two previous Breeders’ Cup winners – Lashkari (GB), captured the inaugural running of Turf (G1) in 1984 and Kalanisi (IRE) won 2000 edition of race. • This year, is targeting the $4 million Longines Turf with his good European filly Tarnawa (IRE), who was also cross-entered for the $2 million Maker’s Mark Filly & Mare Turf (G1) after earning an automatic entry via the Breeders’ Cup Challenge “Win & You’re In” series upon winning Longines Prix de l’Opera (G1) Oct. 4 at Longchamp. Perfect in three 2020 starts, the homebred also won Prix Vermeille (G1) in September. • Powerhouse on the international racing stage. Has won the Epsom Derby five times, including the record 10-length victory in 1981 by the ill-fated Shergar (GB), who was famously kidnapped and never found. In 2000, Sinndar (IRE) became the first horse to win Epsom Derby, Irish Derby (G1) and Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe (G1) the same season. In 2008, his brilliant unbeaten filly Zarkava (IRE) won the Arc and was named Europe’s Cartier Horse of the Year. • Trainers include Ireland-based Dermot Weld, Michael Halford and beginning in 2021 former Irish champion jockey Johnny Murtagh, who rode Kalanisi to his Breeders’ Cup win, and France-based Alain de Royer-Dupre, Jean-Claude Rouget, Mikel Delzangles and Francis-Henri Graffard • Almost exclusively races homebreds but is ever keen to acquire new bloodlines, evidenced by acquisition of the late Francois Dupre's stock in 1977, the late Marcel Boussac’s in 1978 and Jean-Luc Lagardere’s in 2005.
