SOMEWHERE IN (ON?) (NOT NEW) JERSEY FASIG-TIPTON CATALOGUES By Bill Finley 252 FOR SARATOGA SALE When it comes to racing I have always liked the offbeat. When you=ve seen 25 or so runnings of the GI Mother Goose S. at Belmont, the Mother Goose just doesn=t do it for you anymore. So while many of the finest 3-year-old fillies in the country will be racing at Belmont Park I will be some 3,500 miles away trying to figure out the card at Les Landes Race Course in Jersey. Not that Jersey. Not Monmouth Park Jersey or Bruce Springsteen, Chris Christie, Snooki or traffic circles, but the Isle of Jersey. It is part of the Channel Islands, a small group of islands just off the coast of Normandy, France yet part of the United Kingdom. Why I am I here? Because different is fun. Les Landes runs nine meetings a year. There is also one meeting on another of the Channel Islands, Guernsey. The Les Landes races will be held Friday and there is a five-race card, one jumper and four flat races. Cont. p4 Leading sire Tapit, who accounted for the 2015 sales-topper, has 13 yearlings catalogued for this year=s Saratoga sale | Mathea Kelley IN TDN EUROPE TODAY

AWe are thrilled with the catalogue,@ said Fasig-Tipton President and Chief Executive Officer Boyd Browning, Jr. AIt is a spectacular group of horses, both on the front cover and the back cover and everything in between. We=re really proud of it. We=re proud of this year=s group and we=re proud of our graduates. He added, ASaratoga produced four Eclipse Champions in 2015--American Pharoah, Songbird, Stellar Wind, and Tepin-- more than any other individual Thoroughbred auction in the world. And, not only are these horses great champions, they are arguably some of the most accomplished racehorses we=ve seen in some time--a testament to the type of quality our consignors offer at Saratoga.@ Some potential highlights of this year=s catalogue include hip 122, a War Front filly out of MGISW millionaire and GI Kentucky Oaks winner Plum Pretty (Medaglia d=Oro); and hip 49, a Tapit filly out of MGISW Her Smile (Include), one of 13 in the catalogue for her hugely successful sire.

Bill Finley cont. from p1 I can tell you that the feature race is the one jump race, the Channel Islands Champion Hurdle, and the winner will receive ,2,380. I also know that Mark Johnson, the track announcer at Churchill Downs between 2009 and 2013, is the regular caller at Les Landes. Go figure. I also googled away and found out that our New Jersey indeed comes from this Jersey. New Jersey was named by James, Duke of York (the brother of King Charles II of England), who was given New Jersey by his brother. James later gave New Jersey to Lord John Berkeley and Sir George Carteret. James named Racing at Les Landes the colony New Jersey Jersey Race Club photo to honor Carteret, who had been the Governor of Jersey, a British island in the English Channel. But that=s about all I know. Who are these horses, jockeys, trainers and where do they come from? Why would a remote island with just 92,000 residents have a racetrack? Can they compete on the mainland of the UK or are they hopelessly outclassed. Are there any past performances? I searched long and far for that information and could come up with little. Racing at Les Landes is a mystery, and I hope to have a at least a few answers tomorrow. In the meantime, Thursday was spent exploring the island. The easiest way to get here from the East Coast was to fly to Dublin and take a puddle jumper from there. Upon my arrival I asked the nice man at the Avis counter for a GPS, which just as well could have meant to him a Geothermal Protective Spaceship. Ok, strange country, windy roads, drive on left, no idea where I=m going...yep...I=ll be fine. Though I=ve driven in the UK A World War II battery plenty of times, it still takes on the Isle of Jersey some getting used to and I was so conscious about staying away from the right-hand side of the road that I veered too far to the left and scratched up the driver=s side door. (We=ll be burying that one deep down on the expense account right under dinner with some trainer the bosses have never heard of). Cont. p5

Being that these are islands out of the middle of the sea, one would think the main reason tourists come here is to enjoy the sunshine and the beaches. If they do, they=re nuts, that is if Thursday was anything typical of a late June day in Jersey. The high was 62 Fahrenheit, it was dreary and it drizzled on and off most of the day. Not a soul could be found on the beach. At my hotel, a lovely place called La Haule Manor, there is a swimming pool, but I=m guessing the last time anyone jumped in was 1984 and they were soon afterward whisked off to the hospital with an acute case of hypothermia. Apparently, they don=t share their French neighbors= affection for fine wine. In the first liquor store I went to the shelves were loaded with three packs of wine selling for a total of ,9. Sorry, we=ll pass. I was also surprised to see no signs of the secretive banking Les Landes Race Course on the Isle of Jersey | facebook.com businesses that are part of so many of these islands. Jersey is supposedly like so many of the rest, a place where the mega- wealthy go to hide their money to avoid paying taxes.

Iowa Derby cont.

He subsequently disappointed when sixth as the 7-5 favorite in Churchill=s GIII Pat Day Mile May 7, but recently bounced back with a gritty one-length victory in the listed Sir Barton S. at Pimlico May 21--an effort that was flattered when fourth-place finisher Donegal Moon (Malibu Moon) came back to win the GIII Pegasus S. June 19. American Freedom returned to California following that effort and has registered three consecutive six-furlong drills at Santa Anita. Baffert has won the Iowa Derby three times previously, most recently with Prayer for Relief (Jump Start) in 2011. American Freedom=s sternest test could come from Texas Chrome, who chased GI Kentucky Derby third-place finisher Gun Runner (Candy Ride {Arg}) home to complete the trifecta in the June 18 Matt Winn. The Texas-bred, a four-time stakes winner, has only finished off the board once in nine starts. Trainer Donnie Von Hemel sends out the impeccably bred Synchrony (Tapit) off a two-month layoff. The chestnut, third in both the Jan. 18 Smarty Jones S. and the Apr. 16 GIII Lexington S., tends to lag in the early stages and figures to need a lively pace up front to deliver his best effort. A son of GSW & GISP Brownie Points (Forest Wildcat)--who won the Iowa Distaff S. here in Synchrony | Coady Photography 2007--he adds blinkers for this try and has the benefit of two local workouts in the past month. Ramsey Farm homebred Hint of Roses (Tapit) was entered for the May 7 GI Kentucky Derby as a maiden on the also-eligible list, and although he did not draw in to that prestigious event, he recently broke his maiden over 10 furlongs at Churchill Downs May 30. Cutting back to 1 1/16 miles for Friday night=s test, the Mike Maker trainee figures to do his best running late with jockey Florent Geroux aboard. Michael J. Bruder=s Lookin for a Kiss (Lookin At Lucky) is the only other entrant in the Iowa Derby with previous experience at the graded stakes level, having finished seventh after contesting a hot pace in the GI Toyota Blue Grass S. Apr. 9 and an even fifth--just ahead of American Freedom--in the Pat Day Mile. The chestnut has worked steadily at Churchill Downs in recent weeks and could make use of his early speed from the inside post position.
