But at the time it made perfect sense, even if it made a poor comparison with events on the other side of the , where () and Easy Goer (Alydar) locked horns throughout that year's Triple Crown series and then thrilled fans with a final duel in the G1 Breeders' Cup Classic at Gulfstream Park in the autumn. After winning the 2,000 Guineas, Nashwan obviously had the Derby as his main target, while Old Vic had hardly been on the radar as a potential rival at the start of the season. The previous season's 2-year-old High Estate (GB) (High Estate {GB}) had appeared to be the most likely of several potential Derby candidates in Henry Cecil's stable; with Old Vic, the winner merely of a maiden race at Haydock Park from two appearances at two, seemingly merely a possible contender for the second-tier 3-year-old staying races. That all changed, though, when Old Vic started racing.

Nashwan and | Racing Post Old Vic's 1989 season began at the Newbury Spring Meeting in a conditions race, which he won by 10 lengths. He then headed to Sandown for the G3 Guardian Classic Trial, in which he cruised home by four lengths, putting up a very impressive display in a race which had been won by four Derby winners (, , and ) in the previous ten years. Cecil then dispatched him to the Chester May Meeting, where he won the G3 by two and a half lengths from Golden Pheasant ( {Fr}) with the favourite Warrshan ( {Can}) 12 lengths farther back in third. The merit of the performance was emphasised when it was announced that he had broken the track record, and was further reinforced two years later when Golden Pheasant won the G1 Cup.

Kevin Blake "We went to the French Derby thinking we had a chance, but that was the day he showed what he was. Of course nobody ever wanted to make the pace over there, so I did. He just kept quickening and quickening through the stretch and won very impressively," Cauthen told TDN earlier this week. TDN EUROPE • PAGE 4 OF 14 • THETDN.COM SATURDAY • 29 JUNE 2019

Cont. from p3 The Irish Derby was not on Nashwan's agenda because and Sheikh Hamdan had plotted a course which would take the magnificent chestnut to Ascot's King George VI And Queen Elizabeth Diamond S. via the Eclipse S. at Sandown. The Irish Derby, though, was the obvious next race for Old Vic. He was even more majestic there, again making all the running and winning with his head in his chest. Derby fourth Ile De Nisky (GB) () finished third and was a length closer to Old Vic than he had been to Nashwan, but that only tells half the tale: Old Vic could have won by a lot farther as Steve Cauthen let him coast through the final furlong, winning by four very unhurried lengths. AEverything leading up to it was good and we got there and he had this big boil on his back. You almost couldn't put a saddle on him, and it was all touch and go if were going to run," said Cauthen. "Somebody came up with the idea-I don't know if it was Henry or someone who worked for him-well why don't you try this. They got a real thick pad, and they cut out the part over the boil, and the boil didn't affect him as much, and then it was pretty much the same deal as the French Derby. He controlled the race and won very impressively again." The clash between Nashwan and Old Vic at Ascot was clearly going to be a race for the ages, on a par with the epic battle between (GB) (Great Nephew {GB}) and (GB) ( {GB}) in the 'Race of the Century' in the same event 14 Among the stock included in the sale was Oh So Fair years previously. Sadly, the great duel never happened. In (Graustark), in foal to (GB) ().

Which horse ranks as the most special of the champions who lit up the alliance of Sheikh Mohammed, Henry Cecil and Steve Cauthen? Well, many of the racegoers who were lucky enough to be at the Curragh on 2 July 1989 think that the answer to that one is easy: the mighty Old Vic.

TAKING STOCK: KHOZAN O’DWYER LOOKS TO CAPITALIZE ON GOOD JUVENILE FORM LEADS AS 2YO SEASON by Christie DeBernardis Trainer Jeremiah O’Dwyer and some of his owners will HEATS UP attempt to capitalize on the sharp form of a pair of juveniles by sending them through the ring at Fasig-Tipton’s upcoming July Sale of Horses of Racing Age. One of those 2-year-olds is maiden winner Such Great Heights (Awesome Again), but the other, Rookie Salsa (Two Step Salsa), is already a stakes winner and looks to capture his first graded event Saturday in the GIII Bashford Manor S. at Downs. A debut winner at Laurel Apr. 19, Rookie Salsa followed suit with a win in the Juvenile S. at May 1. The $15,000 FTKOCT buy was third last time out in Belmont’s Tremont S. June 7. Cont. p5

IN TDN EUROPE TODAY REFLECTING ON OLD VIC’S IRISH DERBY VICTORY Khozan | Lauren King On the eve of the Curragh’s G1 Irish Derby, John Berry takes a look back at the rousing score by Old Vic in the Irish Classic by Sid Fernando 30 years ago. Click or tap here to go straight to TDN Europe. First-crop sires, headed by Triple Crown winner American Pharoah (Pioneerof the Nile), will be under the microscope as the 2-year-old season heats up, particularly at the marquee meets of Saratoga and Del Mar this summer. At this writing, Florida-based Journeyman Stud's Khozan (Distorted Humor) leads TDN's freshman sire list (see Top 10 on page 3) by worldwide earnings ($298,808), winners (7), and starters (15), but hot on his trail are WinStar's Constitution (Tapit), Darby Dan's Tapiture (Tapit), and American Pharoah's barnmate at Ashford, Competitive Edge (Super Saver). The Triple Crown winner, the most expensive sire to enter stud in 2016 with a listed fee of $200,000, currently sits at number seven with three winners, but he'll have action on Saturday and the next six months to launch his expected move to the top of the list with well-bred runners in North America and Europe. Saturday's Glll Bashford Manor S. at Churchill Downs includes the progeny of two freshman sires, Palace Malice (Curlin) and Commissioner (A.P. Indy), and a win for one or the other would launch him into the top 10 by earnings. Cont. p3 PUBLISHER & CEO Sue Morris Finley @suefinley [email protected]

Cont. from p1 Both were Classic colts at 12 furlongs--Palace Malice won the Gl Belmont S., and Commissioner lost the same race by a head to (Tapit), who's also represented by his first crop this year--and an early season graded score would be gravy for either one, as their pedigrees and race records suggest their offspring will be better later this year as distances stretch out or at three. Similar thinking applies to American Pharoah, even though he was a 2-year-old champion. American Pharoah won his first race in his second start, and that was in the Gl Del Mar Futurity over seven furlongs in early September. He cemented the championship with a win later that month in the Gl FrontRunner S. at Santa Anita at a mile and a sixteenth before missing the Gl Breeders' Cup Juvenile with a foot issue. The was unlucky to have son Maven, a first-out dirt winner at Aqueduct in April for trainer and breeder Wesley Ward, scratched from the G2 Norfolk S. at Royal Ascot last week due to soft ground, but Maven will reappear in France, where he goes in the G3 Prix du Bois at Chantilly on Saturday, hours after Monarch Of Egypt lines up for the G2 Railway S. at the Curragh in Ireland. It's notable that American Pharoah's other two winners to date, Monarch Of Egypt (from the Galileo {Ire} mare Up {Ire}) and Saqqara King (from the Tapit mare Joyful Victory), have come on turf in Europe, where Coolmore has bet heavily that he'll succeed. If he does, it will be a victory for the predominately dirt-acting Unbridled line, which hasn't fared well across the pond--and that includes Juddmonte's Empire Maker (Unbridled), the sire of Pioneerof the Nile.

Two Khozan homebreds were entered in the $75,000 Golden Isle S. at Gulfstream on Friday. Khozan's champion half-sister stayed 10 furlongs and his sire also got plenty of staying horses, including Kentucky Derby winner Funny Cide and Belmont S. winner Drosselmeyer. He also has an uncannily similar profile to Hill ‘n' Dale's Maclean's (Distorted Humor), who also was unraced at two but won his lone start at three at six furlongs with a gigantic 114 Beyer. Maclean's Music, who entered stud for $6,500, got Gl Preakness S. winner Cloud Computing from his first crop. In fact, it appears that the faster sons of Distorted Humor are becoming his better sires, with Grade l-winning sprinter Jimmy Creed at Spendthrift, who also was unraced at two, currently leading all third-crop sires. Khozan is represented by 60 named 2-year-olds in his first crop. American Pharoah has 114, which gives him a massive Jeremiah O’Dwyer | Coady advantage going forward because he has pedigree and “It is favorable,” O’Dwyer said. “I wouldn’t be as keen to run physiques behind him as well. American Pharoah was the star at him back at Belmont, let’s say, before the sale. I am keen to run the yearling sales last year and his success wouldn't surprise him back at Churchill on that surface. I have galloped him over anyone. In fact, it's an unfair comparison to judge him against the Churchill surface myself and he definitely goes well over Khozan, and the only reason they are in a conversation together that.

“With Arrogate it was very important for us to have as much speed as possible [in his book] because he could run all day,” said Aaron. “He really started doing his best running at three. So we thought it was important to mix in some 2-year-old speed in the book.” Becky Thomas broke and trained Artemis Agrotera as an early 2-year-old for owners/breeders Chester and Mary Broman. “Artemis herself was a very big, scopey filly,” said Thomas. “She had [a] pedigree that [was] two-turn on the dam side, speed on the sire side... She was really fast early. She also didn't look like she was as fast as she was.” Both Aaron and Thomas agreed that the resulting filly from the pairing not only meets, but exceeds, expectations. "When I first went out to see the filly, I couldn't believe how Hotshot Anna | Coady powerful it was," said Aaron. "Artemis Agrotera herself is a big horse and Arrogate is a big horse, and the filly looks like she has Student Body (Colonel John), upset victress of the grassy just an absolute ton of speed.

I guess it makes sense with Unbridled's The bay boasts a runaway optional claiming tally victory in her Song being a champion 2-year-old, Artemis Agrotera being a lone prior attempt over this course last September. She enters Grade I winner at two, and then Arrogate's third dam [Meadow fresh off a ninth-place finish in Keeneland’s Giant’s Causeway S. Star {Meadowlake}] is also a champion 2-year-old. So there's a Apr. 13. lot of chance for precocity in that mating." Artemis Agrotera’s first foal, that aforementioned $2-million record-setter, is Chestertown. Thomas consigned the colt on behalf of the Bromans, who stayed in for a one-third interest. ARTEMIS AGROTERA’S FILLY BY ARROGATE Chestertown, whose new ownership group includes West Point Thoroughbreds, Robert Masiello, and Siena Farm, recorded his ‘LOOKS INCREDIBLY FAST’ first work June 17 at Keeneland for trainer Steve Asmussen. Arrogate (Unbridled’s Song) set the racing world on fire when “She's already had a $2 million 2-year-old,” added Aaron, he reeled off consecutive victories in the GI Travers, “which was super important, to show that she's of throwing GI Breeders’ Cup Classic, GI Pegasus World Cup Invitational, and herself with that kind of precocity, so we're very excited about G1 . It wasn’t just the races themselves that got the Arrogate she has on the ground. breeders excited about the big gray, but the way he won them with a devastating ease. When he retired, Arrogate was a hot commodity in the breeding shed. That first crop is on the ground now. The progeny of Artemis Agrotera (Roman Ruler) have been a hot commodity as well. The mare’s first foal, by Tapit, made headlines earlier this year when he brought $2 million to set the record as the highest price in the history of the OBS March 2-year-olds in training sale. Juddmonte Farms’ Leif Aaron said the attractive thing about adding Artemis Agrotera to Arrogate’s first book was not only her first-out 11 3/4-length maiden special weight win at Saratoga at two, but also her subsequent GI Frizette score, and an additional Grade I victory when sprinting at three in the Ballerina S.

NYRA Senior Vice President of Racing Operations Martin Panza added, “As a TAA board member, I have learned that the horses that retire to TAA accredited facilities most often come through the claiming ranks. This initiative will further support the retirement and rehoming of these equine athletes.” Trainer and NYTHA Aftercare Committee Chairman Rick NYRA & NYTHA ANNOUNCE NEW AFTERCARE Schosberg said, "Since we started in 2013, TAKE THE LEAD has FUNDING INITIATIVE retired more than 475 horses from the NYRA tracks to A 1.5% aftercare assessment will be added to all claims made TAA-accredited facilities.

It's great to see New York's 11 Saratoga Race Course opener, NYRA and the New York horsemen at the forefront of a new initiative to raise our Thoroughbred Horsemen’s Association (NYTHA) announced commitment to aftercare. This was an idea first floated by Rick Friday. For example, an owner making a $50,000 claim will Violette as a founding member of the TAA, and it's appropriate contribute an additional $750 towards aftercare.

As is standard practice, claims will be voided if the full amount including the aftercare assessment is not on account at the time of the claim. In addition, existing owners’ aftercare contribution to the TAA will be increased from $5 to $10 per start. “We believe these new directives will generate more than $450,000 in additional spending for an overall direct spend of over $1 million per year towards the valuable work being undertaken by those in our aftercare community,” said Joe Appelbaum, President of NYTHA. “Claiming horses are the blue-collar workers of our racing program, and it is fitting that we create a revenue stream for their aftercare from the robust economic activity generated by the nearly $25 million in claims " " " at NYRA tracks every year.” Saturday, Woodbine, post time: 4:51 p.m. EDT HIGHLANDER S.-GI, C$300,000, 3yo/up, 6fT PP HORSE SIRE OWNER TRAINER JOCKEY ML 1 Extravagant Kid Kiss the Kid DARRS, Inc.
