Belmont Has Always Been the Goal for Lows with Intrepid FRIDAY, JUNE 7, 2019 BELMONT HAS ALWAYS THURSDAY’S TRACKSIDE BELMONT STAKES 151 REPORT BEEN THE GOAL FOR LOWS by Steve Sherack ELMONT, NY--With the star-studded GI Belmont Stakes card WITH INTREPID HEART right around the corner, the main track was in terrific shape for training hours early Thursday morning despite receiving a soaking from heavy overnight rains. Hall of Fame trainer Bill Mott, sporting a New York Yankees cap, got a feel for the track walking the freshly harrowed surface, labeled “good,” under a dense cloud cover and extremely humid conditions just after 6 a.m. Mark Casse watched a set train from the rail, including the GI Longines Just A Game S.-bound Got Stormy (Get Stormy), and began contemplating whether or not to send his Belmont S. duo of War of Will (War Front) and Sir Winston (Awesome Again) out a little earlier than usual due to the sticky, summer-like conditions. Cont. p5 IN TDN EUROPE TODAY Intrepid Heart | Coady HOW DUBAWI HAS HELPED EASE THE BLUES By Christie DeBernardis Dubawi reached a major milestone this week, and Emma ELMONT, NY--It is not often in racing, or with horses in Berry looks back at the legacy of the Darley stallion. general, that things go exactly according to plan, but Intrepid Click or tap here to go straight to TDN Europe. Heart (Tapit) is one of the rare exceptions. When Robert and Lawana Low purchased the $750,000 colt as a 2-year-old at OBS April with the help of bloodstock agent Jacob West, they did so with Saturday’s GI Belmont S. in mind. The gray’s sire Tapit is responsible for three Belmont winners in Tonalist, Creator and Tapwrit. His dam is by Touch Gold, a Belmont winner himself, and his half-brother Commissioner (A.P. Indy) finished just a head behind the aforementioned Tonalist in the 2014 Test of a Champion. “We really admired his breeding,” said Robert Low. “Being a Tapit out of a Touch Gold mare, he has Belmont written all over his pedigree. With him kind of coming to hand late, it was too late for the [GI Kentucky] Derby and [GI] Preakness, but perfect for the Belmont. We have been thinking Belmont from the day we bought him. Todd Pletcher guaranteed us the win.” The owner of the trucking company Prime Inc. paused a moment and laughed, “I thought I'd get a chuckle out of you with that. None of these horses come with any guarantee, but we did talk about the Belmont when we bought him. Actually, [Pletcher] did say something like that, but I think it was in jest.” Cont. p3 PUBLISHER & CEO Sue Morris Finley @suefinley [email protected] V.P., INTERNATIONAL OPERATIONS Gary King @garykingTDN [email protected] EDITORIAL [email protected] Editor-in-Chief Jessica Martini @JessMartiniTDN Managing Editor Friday, June 7, 2019 Alan Carasso @EquinealTDN Senior Editor Steve Sherack @SteveSherackTDN Racing Editor Brian DiDonato @BDiDonatoTDN News and Features Editor Ben Massam @BMassamTDN Associate Editors Christie DeBernardis @CDeBernardisTDN Joe Bianca @JBiancaTDN ADVERTISING [email protected] Director of Advertising Alycia Borer Advertising Manager Lia Best Advertising Designer Amanda Crelin Advertising Assistants Alexa Reisfield Amie Morosco Advertising Assistant/Dir.

He followed suit with a wide-trip Keeneland optional claimer win Apr. 5 and finished third last time as the favorite in Belmont’s GIII Peter Pan S. May 11 after stumbling at the start. Robert & Lawana Low with Magnum Moon | Coady “He stumbled out of the gate and kind of chased a pretty fast pace, running up within two or three lengths of the pace,” Low said. “It just set that race up in a way that is not suited to what he wants to do. After the wire, he galloped out very strongly in front of everybody. It just wasn't a good setup with the poor start and the fast pace. If we had to do it over again, and you could predict how these things are going to come out, you might do it differently. But, we all thought it was a fairly good race considering the situation. He gave us hope.” Intrepid Heart will be piloted by Hall of Famer John Velazquez Saturday. Pletcher and Velazquez each have two Belmont wins to their credit, including one as a team with Rags to Riches. “Johnny V rode Capote Belle to our first Grade I win in the Test,” Low said. “We love Johnny. We are very fortunate to have this trainer/jockey combo.” The Lows got hooked on racing early on in their career as owners thanks to Capote Belle, who won the Test in their first year in the business in 1996. “We got hooked early on,” said Low, who lives on a farm in Primatara, Missouri, with his wife and their band of 14 broodmares. “One of the first fillies we bought named Capote Belle won the GI Test S. at Saratoga, so we were hooked for life after that. We had to wait for that next Grade I for a long time, but we have had some good horses and really enjoy the game and enjoy being on the farm with the mares and babies.” Cont. p4 3 G1 WINNERS 3 CONSECUTIVE CROPS PAOLA QUEEN WEST COAST MITOLE TEST S.

    THURSDAY, MAY 6, 2021 AMERICAN PHAROAH, SUPER TRAINERS IN CALIFORNIA: THE STORY IN NUMBERS PLETCHER, FISHER 2021 by Dan Ross Over the years, the rise of the so-called super trainer has INDUCTEES INTO HOF prompted many a clutched pearl by virtue of a perceived monopoly on the sport. Anecdotally, it can certainly appear as though the same few names wield an outsized impact. But what does the data say? The TDN has crunched the numbers in California from 2007 onward. This is far from a comprehensive overview of the situation, and what emerges is a picture that can be viewed from multiple angles. On the one hand, the numbers suggest that the biggest stables in the state have indeed consolidated their positions at the top during a long period of market contraction. Yet at the same time, other indicators afford tentative encouragement for the smaller players.
