Sunday=S Trackside Derby Report (Cont MONDAY, MAY 1, 2017 SUNDAY=S TRACKSIDE CAN BODE MILLER REVOLUTIONIZE THE WAY HORSES ARE TRAINED? by Bill Finley DERBY REPORT Bode Miller, the gold-medal winning Olympic ski racer, wants to be a horse trainer. Just not a conventional one. With his skiing career all but over, Miller is already laying the foundation for his next vocation, training Thoroughbreds. Though only an owner at this point, he has already purchased his own barn at the Fair Hill Training Center in Maryland, where he has a small string of horses trained by others. He said he is focused now on spending time with his family and will not take out his trainer's license until his two young children are older, but when he does, he will go about it in a way that traditional horsemen will likely see as racing=s version of reinventing the wheel. Cont. p6 McCraken having some fun back at the barn after breezing at Churchill Sunday | Sherackatthetrack IN TDN EUROPE TODAY by Steve Sherack MINDING BACK IN THE MOORESBRIDGE Cartier Horse of the Year Minding (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) makes LOUISVILLE, Ky - >TDN Rising Star= McCraken (Ghostzapper) her 4-year-old debut in Monday’s G2 Mooresbridge S. at Naas. was the undisputed headliner during Sunday=s exclusive Click or tap here to go straight to TDN Europe. 15-minute training period (8:30-8:45 a.m) reserved for GI Kentucky Derby/Oaks contenders at Churchill Downs. The popular Whitham homebred--already a perfect three-for- three beneath the Twin Spires as a juvenile--hugged the rail beautifully as he turned for home and glided down the stretch through another visually impressive five-furlong workout in 1:00.80 (9/25) on a very warm, humid and breezy morning under mostly cloudy skies in the Bluegrass. Regular rider Brian Hernandez Jr., sporting a GoPro camera on his helmet, was in the irons. Whether you are willing or not to forgive McCraken=s disappointing third-place finish as the favorite in the GII Blue Grass S.--this writer certainly is--trainer Ian Wilkes clearly has him heading in the right direction as the First Saturday in May quickly approaches. Hence (Street Boss), already considered to be this year=s >wise- guy horse= by many off his powerful win in a key renewal of the GIII Sunland Derby, made a great physical impression during his Sunday morning gallop. The well-built chestnut, ponied to the track by trainer Steve Asmussen, is one of three Calumet Farm homebreds being aimed for the Run for the Roses.

The maiden Sonneteer (Midnight Lute), trained by Keith Desormeaux, is also scheduled to breeze. The 31-1 Blue Grass upsetter Irap (Tiznow), meanwhile, got his first look at Churchill Downs Sunday and stepped onto the track with a nice bounce to his step as head Doug O=Neill assistant Leandro Mora watched with a big smile standing alongside a large group of media and photographers assembled on the backstretch. Will Blue Grass runner-up Practical Joke (Into Mischief) be adding blinkers next weekend? After sporting the shades during his breeze Friday, the handsome bay, trained by Chad Brown, was not wearing them during his 1 3/8-miles gallop Sunday.

The GIII Spiral winner, stabled at Mike Maker=s Trackside base, was making his first local appearance over the Churchill Downs main track. Trainer Antonio Sano seems to be taking his first trip to the Derby right in stride. Sano, who has been quite active on his Twitter account (@ASanoRacing) lately, was one of many observers with their cell phone out as the GII Fountain of Youth S. winner Gunnevera (Dialed In) was getting cleaned up back at the barn. An even bigger audience continued to assemble outside of Barn 26 as the aforementioned GII Kentucky jockey Club S. and GIII Sam F. Davis S. hero cooled out, walking the shedrow around 9 a.m. McCraken seemed to come out of his breeze in good spirits, keeping his handlers plenty busy during his bath as well.

It doesn=t hurt, either, that Courgette=s sire Charge Forward is enjoying a growing profile as a broodmare sire.
