Mshawish Retired cont. from p1

Impressive winner of the G2 Zabeel Mile and a creditable fourth to Longines World=s Best Racehorse Just a Way (Jpn) (Heart=s Cry {Jpn}) in the G1 Dubai Duty Free S. during the 2014 Dubai International Racing Carnival, Mshawish was repatriated later that summer and joined the barn of Todd Pletcher. He capped a three-race winning skein with a nose tally in the GI Gulfstream Park Turf H. ahead of a third to top-class Solow (GB) (Singspiel {Ire}) in his second crack at the Dubai Turf last March. Connections had long toyed with the idea of trying the dirt- bred Mshawish on the main track and, in just his second try over the surface, he proved a game winner of the GIII Hal=s Hope S. at Gulfstream Park. A 9-2 chance in that venue=s GI Donn H., Mshawish was angled out entering the stretch and ran out a two-length winner. Having recorded triple-digit Beyers in each of his final seven starts in North America, Mshawish retires with eight wins--seven black-type--from 24 starts and earnings of $2,421,351, making him the most accomplished of his sire=s offspring to enter stud. AIt=s extremely unfortunate because he had been training so well up to next Saturday=s Met Mile, and the entire team was very confident and looking forward to a big second-half of the year,@ said Ben Taylor, Vice President of Taylor Made Stallions. AThe positive is that Mshawish is an exciting stallion prospect that=s had a tremendous racing career, which he was able to take to another level when he switched to the dirt. The injury is a relatively minor one that he=ll get over, and if he were a 3-year-old, you wouldn=t even hesitate about bringing him back. We really look forward to standing Mshawish and introducing him to breeders. Medaglia d=Oro is one of the top stallions in the world, and Mshawish is his most accomplished son, with fast Grade 1 wins on both dirt and turf.@ Cont. p4

Each election cycle, the Thoroughbred Daily News gives the candidates on the ballot for the election of Breeders= Cup Members the opportunity to make a statement in support of their candidacy. This year, there are 30 individuals on the ballot vying for 19 positions. These statements will appear in the TDN through June 6, when voting opens. Go to www.breederscup.com/election to view the candidate bios.

GEORGE BOLTON I would like to set up an owner recruitment effort that invites potential owners to the "Win and Your In" races as well as the Breeder's Cup Championship Day itself. I would like to entertain these people on the backside in the morning and the races in the afternoon. Hopefully, they will enjoy themselves and learn enough to come to join us in this great sport.

DR. J. DAVID RICHARDSON I have been privileged to be a Member for the past few years and a director of the Breeders= Cup as well. I have owned, bred, and raced horses for over 40 years and continue to do so with 15 mares and a dozen horses in training. I am representative of so many people in the industry, in that I don=t own a farm or stallions outright but have mares, stallion shares and racehorses. Also, like many others, horses are not my Aday job@, as I have been a surgeon for 40 years. I have been fortunate to work in the industry with TOBA, the Kentucky Thoroughbred Association, and to have served on the Kentucky Commission. Each of these experiences have provided me with a different perspective on the industry and sport. I have given time to these groups and others because I have great passion for the all aspects of breeding and racing of thoroughbred horses. I believe the Breeders= Cup is an absolutely vital part of our industry and believe it needs to be held in different venues to showcase the event to different segments of the racing world and diverse fanbases. I believe we can continue to grow the BC as an event and if re-elected as a member will continue to work with other members, Directors and our fine staff to do that.

MARIA NIARCHOS-GOUAZE The Niarchos Family has been involved with the Breeders= Cup Limited since its inception. I believe the Breeders= Cup is the true global championship. I look forward to continuing to serve the Breeders= Cup. REGIONAL REPORT SATURDAY • JUNE 4, 2016
