I was really pleased with what the mares brought--it was a stronger mare market than I had envisioned.” Levy acknowledged the market remains polarized, with most buyers landing on the same top-level offerings. “It seems like everyone is falling on the absolute top-of-the- market weanlings--there isn’t much of a middle market for weanlings right now,” she said.

Darley Aims to Support New York Stallions Darley, which will stand three stallions at Sequel Stallions in 2016, will continue its support of the New York breeding program through a new initiative in partnership with Sequel’s Becky Thomas. Thomas is currently shopping at the Keeneland November sale and buying mares under the name Alpha Partners specifically to send to Darley’s young stallion who will be standing his second season in New York in 2016. “This arrangement between Darley and Alpha Partners will utilize our stallions to support the New York program,” explained Darley Chief Operating Officer Dan Pride. Under the two-year lease agreement, Alpha Partners’ mares will be bred to both Alpha and an additional Darley stallion and the resulting foals will be co-bred by the two groups. In addition to Alpha, Darley’s current New York roster also features Emcee and Desert Party. Freshman sire Girolamo, whose first crop included the New York-bred Grade I placed She’s All Ready, has returned to Kentucky where he will stand the 2016 breeding season. “We believe these are very good prospects and we believe New York is a great market to get a stallion started--as Girolamo proved this year,” Pride said. “Darley is committed to finding and participating in new initiatives to support the New York program.” Through five sessions of the November sale, Thomas has signed for three mares for Alpha Partners. Alys (Dixie Union) (hip 1300) was the group’s most expensive purchase to date, selling for $165,000 Thursday. The goal is to purchase over 10 mares for the partnership. Thomas said that her approach to buying for New York stallions doesn’t vary from her normal criteria. “I look for exactly the type of mare that suits the stallion the best,” she explained. “Whether it’s in Kentucky or New York, I try to pick out a mare that fits the stallion both physically and in pedigree and I try to get a quality individual.” Thomas continued, “We’re buying the same kind of mares that we would support any other stallions with in a commercial marketplace; in other words quality mares to a quality stallion whether it’s in New York or in Kentucky.” New York’s rich breeder rewards program provides plenty of incentives to breed in the state, according to Thomas. “New York has a rewards program that is second to no one,” Thomas explained. “A lot of these mares that are going through the sale here, had the progeny been foaled in New York, you have the added value of having a New York-bred. The lucrative award program makes breeding in New York pretty exciting, as both breeders that breed to race, as well as sell, benefit in the sales ring and on the racetrack.” Spendthrift

DE SOUSA: I’M HERE TO LEARN By Bill Finley British champion jockey Silvestre De Sousa has won only one race in the four days he has ridden in New York, but told the TDN Friday he has other goals besides winning races. “(American racing) is something to learn about,” he said. “You’re learning every day in life and the races in America are good. Maybe by being here I will pick up a top mount for Dubai. You never know what will happen. This is a learning process for me and I’m trying to break in somewhere besides the U.K. My weight is good, so it made sense to try it here.” De Sousa, 34, is a native of Brazil who is coming off his best ever season in Europe. He led all British riders this year with 132 wins. De Sousa said he has no timetable for his return to Silvestre De Sousa | Racing Post Europe, but expects to ride in New York before heading to Florida shortly after Thanksgiving. “I’ll see how things go,” he said. “The plan was to come here ride a bit in New York and then in December go to Florida and see what happens. I’ll see if I make good connections over here and if I do I will stay a bit longer.” De Sousa said he plans to return to Europe for the beginning of the 2016 flat season, but left the door open a crack for a permanent move to the U.S. “I am established in the U.K. so if I don’t get the right mounts here there is no point staying here,” he said. “But if I break in and do well you never know. This probably isn’t for the long term. For the moment I just want to build some contacts.” De Sousa won Sunday at Belmont aboard Astrologist (Discreet Cat) for Godolphin Racing, for whom he used to be the top stable rider, and trainer Tom Albertrani. Overall, he is one for eight since shifting his tack De Sousa scores his first American win here. aboard Astrologist | A. Coglianese “It’s hard to come here and get on the best horses,” he said. “It’s hard to break in. The boys here have good relationship with the owner and trainers. You just have to hope you can make some contacts and get on the right mounts.”
