STONESTREET GOES CAVORTING AGAIN PRINCE OF BADEN BADEN Stonestreet Stable=s Cavorting (Bernardini) registered With an already soft edition of the prestigious another brilliant run at Saratoga in Sunday=s GII Prioress G1 Longines Grosser Preis von Baden weakened further S.

The Jean-Francois prohibitive favorite was away best of Gribomont=s Prince them all, but settled Gibraltar (Fr) (Rock of to stalk the pace Gibraltar {Ire}) and he about two wide as duly delivered under a Ekati=s Phaeton (Tale perfectly timed ride of Ekati) led the way from Fabrice Veron. through fractions of Cavorting | NYRA Last seen finishing :22.35 and :45.35. Prince Gibraltar | Scoop Dyga third in the She improved her position and asserted for the lead as G2 York S. over 10 she angled out five wide on the bend. Cavorting took furlongs July 25, the chestnut was held up in last early over in midstretch and pulled clear to finish three and was brought stand=s side as the field fanned out at lengths ahead of Bar of Gold (Medaglia d=Oro), who the top of the stretch. Surging to the front with just was also runner-up to Cavorting in the Test. It was over a half furlong left, the 6-4 favorite was given three 2 3/4 lengths back to Fusaichi Red (Fusaichi Pegasus) smacks with the whip to make sure and hit the line in third. The Prioress was the second Saratoga graded stakes win in as many days for Stonestreet Stables, with 1 3/4 lengths to spare over the filly Nightflower which was represented by >TDN Rising Star= Rachel=s (Ire) (Dylan Thomas {Ire}). One of France=s premier Valentina (Bernardini) in Saturday=s GI Spinaway S. middle-distance Classic hopes last spring, Prince Cont. p3 Gibraltar was on a roll entering the G1 Prix du Jockey Club after taking the 2013 G1 Criterium de Saint-Cloud HOPEFUL HAS DARTBOARD FEEL and G2 Prix Greffulhe also at that venue last May. Pick a number, any number, and you could be a Cont. p10 winner, as Monday=s GI Hopeful S. at Saratoga has a definite wide-open air about it. Each of the eight runners has posted a Beyer Speed Figure of between 72 and 77 and it isn=t hard to envision several horses on the wire together. Sticksstatelydude (First Dude), one of a surprising seven first-crop winners for his freshman sire (by Stephen Got Even), looks to have as much upside as anyone in this seven- furlong affair. The Virginia- bred outran debut odds of 8-1 to finish a strong second in a highly rated Churchill maiden June 27 for trainer Greg Burchell and was saddled by Kiaran McLaughlin in an Aug. 1 heat at this track. Settled Sticksstatelydude | Adam Coglianese off a generous pace that afternoon, he swung up four wide into contention, but got to playing a bit inside the final furlong. He looked an unlikely winner at the sixteenth pole, but came out and dug in gamely to best subsequent Spa maiden winner Ready Dancer (More Than Ready) by two lengths. Burchell handles the training duties again here. Cont. p6 In 2014, NY-breds earned $86,963,418

“New York-breds now have more earning potential than their Kentucky counterparts.” MarketWatch divided North American starters over the past 12 months into groups by state bred. In each group the horses were placed into deciles by their earnings in the past year.

THE >BLAME= GAME IN DEL MAR FUTURITY >TDN Rising Star= Blameitonthelaw (Blame) will look to take his record to a perfect two-for-two against seven of his fellow juveniles in Monday=s GI Del Mar Futurity on closing day of the meet at the seaside oval. A $70,000 Keeneland September yearling purchase, the bay breezed an eighth of a mile in a slick :10 flat and was knocked down to Richard Templeton=s Doubledown Stables for $320,000 at this year=s OBS March Sale. Blameitonthelaw was sent off the 3-1 second choice in a loaded 5 1/2-furlong Del Mar maiden Aug. 2, and though he Blameitonthelaw | Benoit photo did enjoy the run of the race that day, when the gap came at the fence in upper stretch, he exploded through to score by 4 1/2 widening lengths. Who=s Out (Tale of Ekati), fourth that day as the favorite, returned to graduate by 7 1/2 lengths Aug. 29, and Blameitonthelaw looks tough right back. Nyquist (Uncle Mo) is strictly the one to beat off his 5 1/4-length thrashing of Swipe (Birdstone) and Annie=s Candy (Twirling Candy) in this track=s GII Best Pal S. Aug. 8. A $180,000 Keeneland November weanling and $230,000 graduate of last year=s September sale, Nyquist reached out well to cover a furlong in :10 2/5 over the Gulfstream main track and was purchased by Paul Reddam for $400,000 out of the Fasig-Tipton Florida sale this past winter. With a dozen Futurities to his credit, including American Pharoah (Pioneerof the Nile) last year, trainer Bob Baffert saddles two this time around, each of whom have several lengths to find with the top three or four runners. Mt Veeder (Ghostzapper) looks the more likely of the duo, having showed good debut speed to break his maiden by a little more than two lengths Aug. 15. Despite the relatively quick turnaround, the chestnut has posted a pair of works, including five furlongs in 1:00 2/5 Sept. 1. Nightly News (Misremebered), one of two maidens in the field, has the rail draw to overcome and exits a runner-up effort over a mile Aug. 26. With Martin Garcia sticking with Mt Veeder, Rafael Bejarano takes over on Nightly News.

CONSTITUTION LOOKS LOOSE IN TURF DEBUT >TDN Rising Star= Constitution (Tapit) is the only Grade I winner signed on for Monday=s GII Bernard Baruch H., and--if he takes to the grass, an obvious unknown--looks to be the chief speed in what looms a stepping-stone to bigger days back on the main track over the coming months. Last year=s GI Florida Derby hero, the 4-year-old completed a sophomore trifecta in the GI Clark H. to end 2014 and returned to his favorite track to annex the GI Donn H. in front-running fashion in his lone appearance this season in February. Though there is not a great deal of turf in his female family, the combination of class Constitution | Adam Coglianese and what appears to be a significant tactical advantage could win the day. "We initially planned to run in an allowance race that didn't fill, we're trying to look for a race to prepare him for the [Oct. 3 GI] Jockey Club [Gold Cup] and we felt like this would be a little bit easier on him than the Woodward,@ trainer Todd Pletcher explained. Ironicus (Distorted Humor) can continue on a trajectory towards the GI Breeders= Cup Mile with a good performance here. After rolling to a 7-1 upset in the GII Dixie S. on Preakness Day May 16, it looked like the Janney homebred could go for spots like the GI Manhattan S. and GI Arlington Million, but he has been kept at a mile since. A tidy allowance winner over the trip downstate July 8, he was fanned wide at the top of the stretch in the GII Fourstardave H. Aug. 15 and kept on well to drop a narrow decision to Grand Arch (Arch). Javier Castellano sticks with the proven turf commodity over Constitution. "He's had a couple breezes since [the Fourstardave] and we're ready to go,@ trainer Shug McGaughey said. AHopefully, we'll get more pace in the race. That's going to help, and another sixteenth of mile is going to help as well." Vyjack (Into Mischief), a half-brother to one of the meet=s tough-luck horses in Tepin (Bernstein), has run well in his two turf tries while pace-compromised on both occasions. Runner-up to King Kreesa (King Cugat) when that one was gifted the lead in the GIII Poker S. June 13, he was forced to settle for third to that free- wheeling rival in the July 11 Forbidden Apple S. at Belmont. He may have his day on the grass at some point, but faces a similarly cloudy pace scenario here.

WEST POINT BUYS MINORITY INTEREST IN LIAM=S MAP West Point Stables bought a minority interest in Liam=s Map (Unbrilded=s Song) before his GI Woodward win, it was announced Sunday. The 4-year-old colt, who was an $800,000 Keeneland September purchase for Teresa Viola Racing Stables, boasts a career record of 7-5-2-0 with $808,940 in career earnings so far. The gray ran four times during his sophomore season, which was highlighted by a win in Gulfstream=s Harlan=s Holiday S. This season he annexed an optional claimer at Belmont in June before finishing a game second in the GI Whitney S. Aug. 8. He will likely make his next start in either the GI Breeders= Cup Classic or GI Breeders= Cup Dirt Mile. AWe=re really excited about being a small part of the ownership with Teresa and Vinnie Viola,@ West Point=s Terry Finley told Thoroughbred Daily News. AThe opportunity presented itself before the Woodward and it came together very quickly. We=ve had some good horses together and we=ve developed a really good relationship, so it was a very straightforward deal. He=s shown he=s a pretty talented colt and that=s certainly a huge understatement. He=s been brilliant in every one of his races and we were there when Vinnie bought him as yearling and they=ve done a great job developing this horse. This is just the right team that you want to get on board with, that=s for sure.@

Pletcher Pleased With Stellar Saturday Trainer Todd Pletcher had a strong showing Saturday, with Liam=s Map (Unbridled=s Song) and Coach Inge (Big Brown) completing the GI Woodward S. exacta and Rachel=s Valentina (Bernardini) taking the GI Spinaway S. "I thought Liam's Map was fantastic and I thought Coach Inge ran a really big race, as well," said Pletcher. "I thought it was a good result." As for the filly, the conditioner noted, AI was very, very pleased. I thought she was away a little more alertly and put herself into the race and closed resolutely. She's really a quality filly."

Saturday - No shame in Tap to It (-$200) rallying for a valiant second Saturday - Tap to It (-$200) came with a big run in the GI Spinaway S., behind Rachel’s Valentina in the GI Spinaway S... Effinex (-$75), on but fell just short of Rachel’s Valentina.

GI Hopeful S. - Although he didn’t run off by a big margin or earn a flashy speed figure, Sticksstatelydude’s Spa maiden breaker at GI Hopeful S. - Since I’ve been following Saratoga, I can’t recall a less second asking was visually impressive enough to make him a major flashy crop of juvenile males than this one. There isn’t a single blowout player here. A debut second after pressing the winner throughout at maiden winner signed on here, and the runners coming out of stakes Churchill in late June, he displayed different tactics last time. Seventh in races have all run well enough so far, but don’t really feel like world the early going, the son of First Dude began to launch while four wide on beaters. I’m going to hope that Set the Trappe can earn his diploma the the far turn. With Joel Rosario aboard, the Va-bred altered course no hard way.
