This was a particularly strong commercial showing for a sire who, like the same stud=s War Front, was a Grade II winner sprinting as a 4-year-old. Trappe Shot has five catalogued at Fasig, four at Saratoga. Spendthrift Farm has no fewer than seven stallions, scattered across three states, with their first yearlings selling this year. Highest representation among the four which stand at Spendthrift in Kentucky is Wilburn (Bernardini), whose most important achievement was defeating subsequent GI Breeders= Cup Dirt Mile one-two Caleb=s Posse and Shackleford in the 2011 GII Indiana Derby. He has nine catalogued at Fasig. The other Spendthrift Kentucky debutants are: 2011 GI Arkansas Derby winner Archarcharch (by Arch), who has six at Fasig; Untapable=s half-brother Paddy O=Prado, the last big chance for El Prado (sire of Medaglia d=Oro= Kitten=s Joy, and Artie Schiller) to further his already established reputation as a sire of sires. Paddy O=Prado won the GI Secretariat S. and GII Virginia Derby on the grass, and was third in the GI Kentucky Derby on the dirt. He has five catalogued at Fasig. The 2011 GI Met Mile (Beyer 113) and GI Whitney Invitational (Beyer 111) winner Tizway (Tiznow), who actually got my Eclipse vote among older males in 2011, has three at Fasig and another three catalogued at Saratoga.

Irish Derby Fallout... There has been a lot written in the European press in the aftermath of Australia=s (Galileo) facile win over two stablemates and one runner each trained by Dermot Weld and John Oxx in last Saturday=s G1 Irish Derby. It was the second time in the last three years there has only been a five-horse field for the race. Horse Racing CEO Brian Kavanagh, who is also chairman of “The North American and European Two-Year-Old market was up nearly the all-important European Pattern Committee, is a very $40-million, or 20% from 2013, as 16% more 2-year-olds (2,939) sold for more forward-thinking and internationally minded racing than $232.7-million this year. Including the January and February Mixed Sales, administrator, which means there s a very good chance the NA/EU commercial auction market is up by a little over $42-million in 2014. = Incredibly, I still think, OBS accounted for 57% of the 2-year-olds sold, and the issue will get a real airing. Probably the biggest 51% of the 2-year-old sales' gross”. issue is that since the G1 Prix du Jockey-Club was – Bill Oppenheim changed from 12 furlongs (2400m) to 10 1/2 furlongs (2100m) and the , run on Bastille Day (July 14) was increased to 2400 meters, there=s no real incentive for French horses (who previously had won a 1 1/2-mile French Derby) to make what English-born French trainer John Hammond cited in the Racing Post as a difficult (two-day van ride) or very expensive (by air) trip to Ireland. Previously the Irish Derby was often the >decider= between the winners of the English and French Derbies. It makes for a really knotty problem when you throw in three other factors. First, this presents a big opportunity for a total re-think of the European Classic program given the potential marketing explosion for the sport if a true European Triple Crown, or at least Classic program, could be created. Second, there are three countries involved--Britain, , and Ireland--so it TOTAL US AND EUROPEAN 2YO SALES AS OF JULY 1, 2014 isn=t (and shouldn=t be) just so simple as to say >Oh, YEAR CAT RING SOLD %W/D %S/R %S/C GROSS AVG we=ll design a new English Triple Crown,= or whatever. 2014 5,057 3,782 2,939 25.2% 77.7% 58.1% $232,734,479 $79,188 And third, there is the question of distance. The 2013 4,273 3,230 2,530 24.4% 78.3% 59.2% $193,858,921 $76,624 10-furlong races (up until the 2005 switch) were 2012 4,409 3,368 2,596 23.6% 77.1% 58.9% $168,660,465 $64,969 2011 4,609 3,471 2,601 24.7% 74.9% 56.4% $148,632,749 $57,144 mostly preps for the Derbies. But I would argue there is 2010 4,054 3,209 2,369 20.8% 73.8% 58.4% $137,292,470 $57,954 a logical progression of distances (8, 10, 12 furlongs) 2009 4,684 3,431 2,449 26.8% 71.4% 52.3% $138,306,840 $56,475 which present opportunities which would be far more significant for the breed than the archaic (if always interesting) St. Leger over an extended 14 furlongs at the beginning of September. The Classic season should be finished sometime in July. So there are plenty of questions, and, really, lots of options. What would be a huge win would be if the three countries could start with as blank a slate as possible and create a new Classic pattern which would prove both interesting and entertaining to our customers, and informative for our breeders. A knotty problem, yes, but at the same time a great opportunity. Click here to share this story Bill Oppenheim may be contacted at [email protected] (please cc TDN management at [email protected]).
