Letter to the Editor cont. 8th Race: 1 1/8 miles on the turf. This was the GII John C. Mabee S. It was won by Tiz Flirtatious in spectacular fashion with the half mile fraction of :52 4/5, the three-quarter fraction of 1:17 4/5, the one mile fraction of 1:41 and the final time for the one mile and an eighth 1:51 3/5. As you can see from the fractions, they were crawling for nearly the entire first mile. The one mile fraction for Tiz Flirtatious at 1:41 flat was nearly seven seconds slower than the one mile final time for No Jet Lag at 1:34 1/5. With each 1/5th of a second roughly equating to a length, it means that, at the same one mile distance, No Jet Lag would have been 34 lengths ahead of Tiz Flirtatious! Now for the amazing part...Tiz Flirtatious received a 92 Beyer. I firmly believe that Tiz Flirtatious ran a phenomenal race and is a legitimate graded stakes filly. But I can=t understand how a speed figure that, by definition, is claiming to be based strictly off final time can justify this 92 Beyer figure. This is not the first instance where a Beyer figure has been difficult to understand and explain. As an owner, breeder, commercial seller, and bloodstock agent, there=s simply too much riding on these numbers for there not to be some checks and balances, or rhyme or reason, to the figures doled out. At this stage, it just appears arbitrary. If we are going to continue to hold Beyer figures in such high esteem, they must become more consistent in how they evaluate performance.

ANDREW BEYER If we had published a figure of 43 for this Grade II Responding to Jason Litt=s letter: stakes, Mr. Litt could justifiably have written a letter When the pace of a race is extraordinarily slow and saying that the number was patently absurd. I am results in an extraordinarily slow final time, a speed responsible for the Del Mar figures, and I concluded figure based on the final time may be absurdly low. In that a figure of 92 would be consistent with the such cases, we prefer to assign an arbitrary Beyer previous performances of the runners. (For example: Speed Figure to the race rather than publish a number third-place finisher My Gi Gi received a figure of 84 in that does not remotely reflect the ability of the horses. the Mabee.

SURPRISE! IT’S GALILEO Because of the way the APEX ratings are calculated-- top 2% earners as of July 22, when the threshold in North America was $83,650, whereas at the end of 2012 the A Runner threshold was $121,200--it is possible that some horses which show as A Runners now may end up as B or even C Runners at the end of the year (depending on whether they increase their 2013 earnings if they are currently between the two figures). Given that caveat, in any case, it can hardly be a surprise that the world number one, Coolmore=s Galileo (Sadler=s Wells), tops Galileo coolmore.com the list of North American and European sires by number of new A Runners in 2013 with 13. It=s hard to cast our minds back five years ago (well, except for the world economic meltdown), but we should remember that at the end of 2008, when 2009 matings (foals of 2010) were planned, Galileo=s oldest foals were then just finishing their 5-year-old season, and the quality of his mares was in the process of shooting up. Not that he ever needed the very top mares on his way to becoming the world number one, but he already has 10 new 3-year-old A Runners in 2013, including Classic winners Ruler of the World, , and . Back in 2003, when his first crop were about to be born and the promotional gear was being widely produced, I happened to be at Coolmore one cold February day and came away with a warm jacket emblazoned with >Galileo= on the back. I=m thinking about auctioning it on eBay now (not really, Richard). He=s definitely in the same class as his sire, 14-time British and Irish champion sire Sadler=s Wells. Awesome. Galileo=s yearling sale season is about to get underway--he had one filly sell at Saratoga ($600,000), and has 13 catalogued in Arqana=s Deauville sale, which starts Saturday. Three sires are tied with 11 new A Runners each, and the two North American sires of the three rank second and third behind Distorted Humor (5 sold of 6 offered, average $567,000) among North America sires with two or more yearlings sold at the three Fasig sales so far. These are Darley=s Medaglia d=Oro (El Prado) (4/5, avg. $531,250, per Instatistics)-- eight of his 11 new 2013 A Runners are 3-year-olds, including Rydilluc, one of the top American 3-year-old grass horses--and Airdrie=s late Indian Charlie (In Excess), whose four yearlings sold (admittedly from nine offered) have averaged $488,750.
