(Thursday, June 18, 2020) – Bloom Racing Stable, Madaket Stables and Allen Racing’s 2019 Eclipse Award-winner Midnight Bisou completed her most serious preparation for next Saturday’s $200,000 Fleur de Lis presented by Coca- Cola (Grade II) with a swift six-furlong move in 1:12 Monday morning at Churchill Downs. Trained by Hall of Famer Steve Asmussen, Midnight Bisou has been well-traveled throughout her career with five Grade I victories and runner-up efforts in last year’s $2 million Breeders’ Cup Distaff (GI) and February’s $20 million Saudi Cup. “Her training before we went to Saudi was just mindboggling,” Asmussen said. “It’s just like it is now. We still wonder how she’s able to do it so easily and so consistently. Her works at Churchill have been beautiful. I was very tempted to run her in the (June 13) Ogden Phipps (GI) and leaving She’s a Julie for the Fleur de Lis. I feel like with what she’s done – traveling to Saudi, taking on older boys and everyone knows the trip she got and knows the circumstances… how do you have an adjective what she is and what she means to racing? Coming back, the next race isn’t the goal for this year. The Breeders’ Cup is. She is arguably the best horse in the world.” Midnight Bisou’s 20-race career has been nothing short of spectacular. The now 5-year-old mare began her career on the 2018 Road to the Kentucky Oaks with victories in the $200,000 Santa Ynez (GII), $100,000 Santa Ysabel (GIII) and $400,000 Santa Anita Oaks (GI) with previous trainer Bill Spawr. Midnight Bisou finished third behind Monomoy Girl in the 2018 Longines Kentucky Oaks (GI). Under the care of Asmussen, Bisou reeled off victories in the $250,000 Mother Goose (GII), $1 million Cotillion (GI), $300,000 Houston Ladies Classic (GIII), $350,000 Azeri (GII), $750,000 Apple Blossom (GI), $700,000 Ogden Phipps (GI), $150,000 Molly Pitcher (GIII), $700,000 Personal Ensign (GI) and $300,000 Beldame (GII). Midnight Bisou is slated to take on 2019 Longines Kentucky Oaks (GI) winner Serengeti Empress in the Fleur de Lis, which is part of a quartet of stakes next Saturday at Churchill Downs along with the $400,000 Stephen Foster presented by Coca-Cola (GII), $100,000 Regret presented by TwinSpires.com (GIII) and $100,000 Bashford Manor presented by TwinSpires.com (GIII). The Fleur de Lis is a Breeders’ Cup “Win and You’re In Distaff Division” race while the Stephen Foster is a Breeders’ Cup “Win and You’re In Classic Division” event. This year’s Breeders’ Cup is scheduled for Nov. 6-7 at Keeneland. Nominations for all four races are available online at www.churchilldowns.com/horsemen/stakes/nominations.

(Saturday, June 27, 2020) – Tom’s d’Etat delivered a brilliant performance in Saturday’s 39th running of the $500,000 Stephen Foster presented by Coca-Cola (Grade II) at Churchill Downs as the 7-year-old horse collected his fourth consecutive stakes win while defeating By My Standards by 4 ¼ lengths and clocking 1 1/8 miles in 1:47.30 – just .02 off Victory Gallop’s 1999 track and stakes record. Trained by Al Stall Jr. and owned by Gayle Benson’s G M B Racing and named for her late husband Tom Benson of New Orleans Saints and New Orleans Pelicans fame, Tom’s d’Etat sat just behind Pirate’s Punch, who led the field of eight older horses through fractions of :23.89 and :48.13. Midway around the far turn with three furlongs to run, jockey Miguel Mena asked Tom’s d’Etat to poke his head in front. Under a hand ride, Tom’s d’Etat drew off in the stretch and was utterly superior as By My Standards attempted to close ground. “I knew he was a lot of fun to ride him in the morning but didn’t realize how much fun he was in the afternoon,” said Mena, who was given an opportunity to ride Tom’s d’Etat when regular jockey Joel Rosario opted to ride champion Uni (GB) to a third- place finish in the $250,000 Just a Game (GI) at Belmont Park in New York.

Trainer Ignacio Correas IV was asked about his confidence level for the 6yo Argentina-bred mare going into this year’s Distaff as opposed to 2018 at Churchill Downs when she finished fourth behind champion Monomoy Girl. “These Grade 1s are always tough and it is the same this year with five, six, seven Grade 1 winners in there,” Correas said. “Last year it was Monomoy Girl and this year it is Midnight Bisou. “You try to be competitive going into these races and I feel very good about my horse. But there are other people that feel good, too; another 10 people.” The Distaff figures to be the last hurrah for Blue Prize with Correas as she is in the Nov. 5 Fasig-Tipton November Sale in Lexington, Kentucky. “She is in the peak of condition,” Correas said. “She has given me three good years.” Dunbar Road – A winner of four of six since her career began in March, Dunbar Road will step up in Saturday’s Distaff for owner Peter Brant and trainer Chad Brown.
