SCHIVARELLI AND MORLEY REUNITED RIDING HIGH FROM by Christie DeBernardis BREEDERS= CUP, MILLER Trainer Tom Morley first encountered the 6-year-old Schivarelli (Montbrook) back in 2014 when the horse was under BARN YET TO COME DOWN the care of trainer Eddie Kenneally. The gelding was claimed away from Kenneally in August of this year and Morley has been trying to get him in his stable since. The third time proved to be the charm as the Englishman haltered Schivarelli for $50,000 Saturday after a seven-length victory at Aqueduct. AI was helping Eddie out when this horse was on the New York Triple Crown trail, so I=ve known Schiv for a long time,@ Morley said. AHe is a horse I know incredibly well and I know his ability level too. As soon as I saw him back in for a tag after Eddie lost him, I texted him and said, >Any change in Schiv?= He said, >No, not at all. You should go claim him.= And that is what I=ve been trying to do.@ Cont. p5 (click here)

Day, it wouldn=t have come as a surprise if his barn started to head in the other direction. Not everything can go right every day. Or can it? Miller must be wondering. The trainer finished one-two in the GI Breeders= Cup Turf Sprint as Stormy Liberal (Stormy Atlantic) edged out stablemate Richard=s Boy (Idiot Proof). Three races later, he won the GI TwinSpires Breeders= Cup Sprint with Roy H (More Than Ready). Miller wins a lot of races, but isn=t often given a chance with top-class horses. The Breeders= Cup wins were his first Grade I victories since the 2013 GI La Brea S. He won that race with Heir Kitty (Wildcat Heir). What he did next was take the Breeders= Cup mojo and run with it. Miller won five races over this past weekend at Del Mar and now has 16 winners at the meet with a 33% winning rate. Jerry Hollendorfer is second with seven wins. AI=m a big believer in the energy in the barn,@ Miller said. AThe horses are so sensitive to energy, to good and bad. When everyone kind of has a spring in their step and is happy to be working, the horses feel it and vice versa.@ Cont. p3 557 mares bred from 2015-17

Morley finally got his hands on the popular chestnut Saturday after he romped by a geared-down seven lengths in a $50,000 claimer at Aqueduct.

The following is part of a series in which we have posed the question above to a number of racing industry participants. The only rule is that you cannot choose your own boss.

Eric Hamelback | OwnerView photo ERIC HAMELBACK, CEO NATIONAL HBPA: John Nerud When asked to write in the Thoroughbred Daily News the person I most admire, I was flattered before quickly realizing how hard it would be to narrow it to one person. My professional career is crammed with individuals from Louisiana to Canada whom I greatly admire and who have shaped me as a professional horseman. All that said, one person sums up everything I consider valuable within the Thoroughbred racing industry: John Nerud. Mr. Nerud is an industry icon in so many ways. For me it comes back to his work ethic, someone who rose to the top by starting from the bottom, and those he saw as the racing industry's most important stakeholders. Born in Nebraska, Mr. Nerud started as a rodeo cowboy, then as a groom and hotwalker, even a jock=s agent in New England. He served his country in the Navy during World War II before returning to racing as an assistant trainer. The rest, to racing's good fortune, is history. Mr. Nerud understood that racing drives our industry. The founding father along with John Gaines, Mr. Nerud defined the Breeders' Cup as a marketing tool for racing--nothing else. My admiration for him and what he stood for was then crystallized in a two-part interview with Steve Byk in 2008. AYou have one big day to draw attention to racing and it's a marketing tool. Without racing, breeders don't have a place to sell their horses,@ Mr. Nerud told Steve. Cont. p15 TDN HEADLINE NEWS • PAGE 15 OF 16 • THETDN.COM WEDNESDAY • NOVEMBER 22, 2017

Eric Hamelback on John Nerud cont. I have tried to champion that creed since, including pleading in the July 13, 2010 edition of TDN to make sure racing is in the forefront of every breeders= planning--not commercialism. Later that day, I had a phone message from Mr. Nerud that I will always keep and cherish, along with the memory of our phone conversation the next day. In that relatively short phone call, Mr. Nerud conveyed advice and how he saw the industry that will last me a lifetime. He said we have two types of true stakeholders: givers and takers. Suffice to say he made sure I was aware the importance of the givers. Owners and our customers, he explained, drive the racing industry. In that brief conversation, he instilled the importance of standing up for owners, trainers and handicappers. In so many ways, Mr. Nerud has shaped my thoughts on the industry, as well as how I act in my position as CEO for the National Horsemen's Benevolent and Protective Association.

Strong Trade Continues... As predicted, the prices rose significantly during the second session of the Goffs November Foal Sale, which, after a rejig in format, correlates to day four at last year's sale and, following a promising opener, again showed decent improvement. On Tuesday, 182 of the 228 foals offered, or 80%, were marked as sold at a 20% rise in average to i35,452 and a 4% upturn in the median to i27,000. Turnover for the second session was i6,452,200, which was up by 34%. Cont. p2 Tuesday=s top lot, a colt by Australia | Goffs

The colt (lot last week. Click here to read our Q&A and watch the video in 430), offered by Garranlea Stud, was bred in partnership by TDN America. Eddie Irwin of Rockhart Trading and the China Horse Club and ended up bringing a price far exceeding the i150,000 paid for the top lot on the equivalent day of last year's foal sale, when Philipp Stauffenberg placed the successful bid of i260,000. The April-born colt's sale was the second good result commercially in a matter of months for the Marlhill House Stud resident Thai Haku (Ire) (Oasis Dream {GB}), whose yearling colt by the same sire was bought for 380,000gns during Book 2 of the Tattersalls October Sale. Bought for a new client of Stauffenberg's who is most likely to race him, he is a half-brother to the 2-year-old filly Sarrocchi (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}), a recent winner on debut for Aidan O'Brien. The same breeders and vendor were responsible for the second-top lot of the day (lot 489), this colt the son of another dual Classic winner. The first foal of English and Irish 2000 Guineas winner Gleneagles (Ire) to be offered at public auction elicited a bid of i150,000 from Flash Conroy of Glenvale Stud, who said, "The stallion is very exciting and he's getting very nice horses. They're well-balanced and have quality and I'm very happy to get him."

Said Johnson Houghton, ADad bought Sirnelta for Lord Leverhulme to send to Hot Grove.
