Moonshine Memories Looks to Recall Top Form in Raven SATURDAY, OCTOBER 20, 2018 LITTLES CARRY ON WITH BRAINS AND CLASS MOONSHINE MEMORIES by Jessica Martini LOOKS TO RECALL TOP When Marvin Little, Jr. passed away in July of 2017, the legendary horseman left one goal unfulfilled. The breeder of FORM IN RAVEN RUN 1991 GI Preakness S. and GI Belmont S. winner Hansel wanted that missing jewel in the Triple Crown. A year plus later and Little=s daughters Teresa and Marilyn hope to accomplish that dream on behalf of their late father. The sisters will take a first step in their mission with their first consignment under the Little=s Bloodstock banner at the Fasig-Tipton October Sale. AThe one dream my father had, he won the Preakness and he won the Belmont, he won the Tremont and the Breeders= Cup, but he never won the Kentucky Derby,@ Teresa Little said. AAt my father=s funeral, I sang >My Old Kentucky Home,= and people said that wasn=t a good thing to do. But it was for me because it=s the only thing my father wanted to win. He wanted to breed or sell the winner of the Kentucky Derby.@ Cont. p3 IN TDN EUROPE TODAY Moonshine Memories | Benoit GOSDEN HOLDS STRONG CHAMPIONS HAND Coolmore and Bridlewood Farm=s Moonshine Memories John Gosden has already collected seven British Group 1s (Malibu Moon) looked well on her way to a divisional this year, and he could come away with a few more trophies championship after back-to-back Grade I wins last September, on British Champions Day. Click or tap here to go straight to TDN Europe. but a disappointing seventh in the GI Breeders= Cup Juvenile Fillies put a stop to that, and the >TDN Rising Star= will look to make a mark for the first time as a sophomore as the favorite in Saturday=s GII Lexus Raven Run S. at Keeneland. Taking the GI Del Mar Debutante wire-to-wire in her second career start, the $650,000 Fasig-Tipton Saratoga buy stretched out to two turns with alacrity in taking the GI Chandelier S. four weeks later at Santa Anita. Setting the pace before retreating in the Breeders= Cup, the bay finished second in the Angel=s Flight S. in her seasonal debut May 12 and was no match for division leader Monomoy Girl (Tapizar) when fourth in the GI Acorn S. June 9 at Belmont. Rebounding some with a narrow allowance tally July 19 at Del Mar, she was last seen running a troubled third in the GII Prioress S. Sept. 2 at Saratoga. The third and fourth finishers from the GI Longines Test S. resurface here in Dawn and Ike Thrash=s Kelly=s Humor (Midnight Lute) and Alter Moon (Alternation), respectively. The former finished a good second at 11-1 in the local GIII Beaumont S. Apr. 8 before running eighth in the GI Kentucky Oaks, second in a Churchill allowance and third in the GIII Indiana Oaks.

Rallying well from off the pace at Saratoga, the dark bay will likely need some hitting up front to set her up for a victory. Alter Moon sold to Peter Brant for $675,000 at the Fasig-Tipton Horses of Racing Age Sale in July off of a five-length score in the Azalea S. at Gulfstream, but she made no serious impact when running evenly to complete the superfecta in the Test. Novogratz Racing Stables= Amy=s Challenge (Artie Schiller) is an interesting player. A winner of three straight to start her career, the $20,000 Fasig-Tipton October buy ran off on the lead before settling for second in the GIII Honeybee S. and GIII Fantasy S. earlier this year at Oaklawn. Dueled into a last-place run in the GII Eight Belles S. next out May 4, she was most recently seen comfortably annexing an optional claimer on the Canterbury turf Aug. 8 and could get brave if able to clear from her rail draw here. Littles Carry On From p1 Marvin Little, Jr. Marvin Little served as farm manager at the historic Newstead Farm in Virginia before moving to Kentucky after the farm dispersed its bloodstock in 1985. In addition to Hansel, he also bred G1 Dubai Golden Shaheen winner Kinsale King. The Little family started out the yearling sales season with a bang at the Fasig-Tipton July Sale. Through the Taylor Made Sales Agency consignment, the family sold a colt by Into Mischief for $300,000.

AAnd I am telling you, it=s in my dad=s name. We are going to rock it. We=re going to do it for him.@ Little=s Bloodstock=s first October consignment features 10 yearlings. Included in the group is a colt by Blame out of a half- sister to Grade I winner Pampered Princess (Indian Charlie) (hip 157); a half-brother by Stormy Atlantic to stakes-placed >TDN Rising Star= Just a Smidge (Into Mischief) (hip 1109); a filly by Lea out of a half-sister to graded winner Royale Michele (Elusive Quality) (hip 1211); and a filly by Candy Ride (Arg) out of Stellabymoonlight (Malibu Moon) (hip 1367).

All rights reserved . 1 | P a g e 2016 Grand National Tips Spring got off to a great start with an early Easter and brighter evenings and it also means it’s time for QED’s Grand National tips! For those of you in a hurry, my tips are at the end of this article. Disclaimer - I have not enjoyed great Grand National success over the years, but that won't stop me from sharing my tips and tactics with you. But, before we get into the euphoria of all that, you would be disappointed if I did not throw in a few ‘risk warnings’: Risk warnings Tipping horses is not an activity regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority. Betting on a horse is a gamble not an investment. A bit like high tech stocks on P/E ratios of 200 plus in 2000. I have no qualifications or expertise in horse racing and my past performance is no indication of future performance (which is a good thing?). What goes up might come down and not get up again. Especially over Becher’s Brook. Only bet for fun and with an amount you would be happy to lose. If you want decent long term returns send your money to QED not Ladbrokes. Your relationship might be at risk if you don’t place your partner’s (or boss’!) winning bet. A word on Efficient Markets … In an efficient market the price contains all the known information. If new information arrives it can change the price.

Highlighting the Oct. 15 event is the $350,000 Grand National (Gr. 1), the richest race on the NSA schedule and boasting a $50,000 increase above the 2015 record level. The New Jersey meet also will add $25,000 to the Gladstone for three-year-olds as well as boosting the purses of the Sport of Kings maiden hurdle and the Ratings Handicap. Far Hills’ sec- ondary feature, the Foxbrook Champion Hurdle for novices, remains at $100,000 for its 2016 renewal.

    To assess whether the length and type of a horse’s racing career affects how they adapt to a new career after racing. Ruby Pepper Butchers Submitted as part requirement for the Degree of BSc (Hons) Equine Science Breeding and Stud Management, Writtle College and the University of Essex. April 2016. 1 Abstract Each year thousands of thoroughbreds retire from the racing industry. Only a small percentage of these horses go on to have a second ridden career. A survey based study was conducted to determine whether there is a significant relationship between the length and type of a horse’s racing career and their new career. This study found no significant relationship. However, several links between racing career and new career were established. 1 Contents Abstract..................................................................................................................................
