HOLIDAY DAWNS, SPORT McGAUGHEY: CODE OF HONOR SPOOKED IN DERBY, TOO YAWNS; WILL STAR POWER Whatever it was that startled Maximum Security (New Year’s Day) in the GI Kentucky Derby also startled Code of Honor FILL THE VOID? (Noble Mission), said trainer Shug McGaughey, who sat down with the TDN’s Patty Wolfe to give an update on the Derby runner-up. “Johnny [Velazquez] jumped off him, said Maximum Security bolted, and he said whatever he saw, Code of Honor saw, too. He said he kind of did like this,” said McGaughey, making a startled motion. “And then he said, ‘I had a hard time getting him going again.’ I said, ‘Well, what did they see?’ and he said, ‘I don’t know what they saw, but they saw something.’” McGaughey debunked the theory that it was the photographer off the inside rail, as some people had speculated. “I can tell you one thing: it wasn’t the little red man behind the pole. I can tell you that right now.” Cont. p6

The final Monday of May (the holiday used to be May 30 before the feds gave us the three-day weekend in 1971) was known for all sorts of creative on-track giveaways and promotions. And Memorial Day in general always seemed to be a useful barometer to judge the health of the racing industry, because it featured both a long list of -notch national stakes and solid grass-roots racing at smaller venues. As recently as 1991, 48 North American tracks carded races on Memorial Day. This year there are 26 tracks running, a 46% reduction. The bulk of Thoroughbreds who raced on that 1991 holiday came from mid-1980s foal crops that topped out between 49,000 and 51,000--the largest ever in North America. The horses entered to race this Memorial Day are from 21st century crops in the 22,000-23,000 range--a 55% drop. Cont. p3 PUBLISHER & CEO Sue Morris Finley @suefinley [email protected]

Unbeaten in two outings over a mile at Saint-Cloud on Apr. 4 and here on Apr. 22, the 7-10 favourite had quicker conditions to deal with this time but the result was the same as the homebred delivered with a deal of panache.

Nothing else was able to get into the contest and when Moore asked for extra two out Hermosa was soon beyond recall en route to a four-length success from Pretty Pollyanna, with Foxtrot Liv 1 1/2 lengths away in third. AShe was always in control and I never I was going to get beaten at any stage,@ Moore said of Hermosa, who was collecting an eighth renewal for Aidan O=Brien. AShe=s a very strong filly who has done exceptionally well from two to three and gave me the feel of a top-class filly. She=s very effective at a mile, but will probably get further and all being well she should have a very good year.@ Hermosa scored over seven furlongs in an often-informative maiden at the Galway festival in July before running sixth in the G2 Debutante S. here in August.
