Isolated

first word

The policy pursued by the racing organisations in the US is leaving its sport further cut off from the rest of the world, writes Paul Haigh

O

f all the events in racing this summer perhaps the most significant has been the statement by the British Horseracing Authority that it intends to implement a policy of “zero tolerance” towards the use of steroids in racing under its jurisdiction.

This means that no steroids of any sort may in future be administered for any reason, including allegedly therapeutic ones, to any thoroughbred in Britain at any point in the horse’s existence – or if they are administered, even if it is to save life, then the horse which receives this treatment may not race.

It should be said that there is no unanimity among vets that this is the correct way to act on this issue. But it is the one the BHA has decided on.

The fact that the statement was not unexpected does not reduce its significance. Every major racing jurisdiction in Europe is now in line with Australia in pronouncing anathema on steroids and they are soon to be joined by the two most influential in Asia, Japan and Hong Kong. Dubai has already made a similar declaration. Increasingly it seems, on this issue at least, North America is becoming isolated from the rest of the world.

Add in the straw poll (admittedly only of interest as an indication of the way the wind is blowing) taken at the Asian Racing Conference in May which went 82%-18% in favour of withdrawing Group status from any race run under medication rules which fails to conform to international standards, and it is possible to detect the gradual formation of a coalition determined to bring American racing into a global fold.

It is not even far-fetched to imagine this coalition being used in the long term to outlaw not only steroids, but perhaps those twin staples of the US racing industry, Lasix and Bute.

Americans, however, tend not to care too much for external pressure. Since around 1776 their policy when confronted has been to shrug at foreign coalitions and utter solemn-sounding statements, most of which could be succinctly summarised in three words, two of which

“

Every major racing jurisdiction in Europe is now in line with Australia in pronouncing anathema on steroids

consist of a total seven letters, the third being “then”.

American racing shows no indication of being an exception to the American belief in American exceptionalism, although it would be ridiculous as well as unfair to ignore the substantial minority in US racing which believes their sport should not permit any medication outlawed in the rest of the world.

And the American racing majority is not short of external encouragement. Look at the – many thought Was it the apparent US boycott of Tapeta that led Sheikh Mohammed to remove the surface at Meydan this spring?

www.internationalthoroughbred.net

9

first word

– unseemly haste with which Sheikh Mohammed took the decision to dig up Meydan’s Tapeta track this year as soon as it began to look as though Americans were conducting an unofficial boycott of his beloved Dubai World Cup because the surface didn’t play to their strengths to the same extent as their own favoured artificial surface: Dirt.

To much of the rest of the world this looked a lot like capitulation. To most American horse people it probably looked like a sensible and statesmanlike accommodation to realities. Whether the new (old) Dirt surface attracts the sort of transatlantic competition Dubai craves remains to be seen. Serious cynics may suspect it could also depend on how strictly the steroid and other bans are enforced.

Even American public opinion seems to have little effect on the hard liners of US racing, who have recently had their way in getting most of the non-Dirt “main” tracks dismissed as experiments that failed.

These include Keeneland, host of the next Breeders’ Cup, which has chosen to revert to Dirt in spite of statistical surveys which reveal that the previous synthetic surfaces were “kinder” to horses – or at least that fewer broke down on them under the public gaze.

Opponents of the “synthetics” contend that while they may produce fewer catastrophic breakdowns in races, training on them increases the number of soft tissue injuries.

T

his year’s attempt by America’s anti-racing (and anti-plenty of other things) group, PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) to discredit racing by secretly filming, recording, then – and this is the important bit – editing the things said to a comely female plant at Steve Asmussen’s stable seems to have come to relatively little, despite the eager support of the New York Times.

But that may only be a reprieve. How much will PETA members’ enthusiasm for their cause be stimulated if, at Keeneland this autumn, we see another horror like the snapped, then dangling, leg which ended Go For Wand’s otherwise magnificent not-quite stretch-long duel with Bayakoa more than two decades ago – a disaster that effectively started the debate on whether there was a better way to race than on Dirt?

And if Americans are immune to arguments against Dirt – their other counter being that synthetics are crueller to jockeys because the make them bounce if they

“

Even US public opinion seems to have little effect on the hard liners of US racing

suffer falls – how much notice are they going to take of a bunch of foreigners trying to tell them what to do on other subjects?

What happens if they decide to ignore edicts on steroids and they ignore the rest of the world’s disapproval of their “medication?” Schism?

The strong bet has to be that, whatever the efforts of any coalition to persuade it to do otherwise, American racing will continue on its own, not necessarily very merry, way – regardless of whatever is decided by groups of others in Hong Kong or in Paris after the Arc. A major reason for this, perhaps THE major reason, is that there is no overall authority in US racing, no organisation which can speak for it even in the same way the BHA speaks for British. Each individual state has its own rules and takes its own views on the rigor or otherwise of their enforcement.

The first rule at many tracks is to keep up field sizes so that turnover doesn’t collapse. And if that means a return to Dirt; to blind-eyeing steroid abuse; to the continued use of Bute and Lasix, so be it. This maybe not true of America’s finest race tracks, or not of most of them anyway, but the attitude of some others, to whom the only line in the sand that counts is the bottom line, seems reminiscent of a sign seen on the back of a truck in Florida a few years ago: “Don’t like my driving?

Phone 1-800 Eat Shit”.

Those relatively few Americans who still travel horses to race in jurisdictions that ban what most of them still see as legitimate medications and others see as chemical crutches seem relatively relaxed about the possible difficulties involved when the (nearly) global steroid ban kicks in.

Maybe it’s their guess that other countries are so pleased to have US entries that they surely won’t make life too difficult for those who do want to come?

So will there be no consequences for America of the ban on steroids, and perhaps eventually the downgrading by the rest of the world of Group races in countries that allow horses to run on any drugs not permitted elsewhere?

Not necessarily. The point at which US racing could be hurt by an otherwise worldwide steroids ban is at the sales. Would you be willing to buy a horse if you couldn’t be sure it was steroid free from birth?

Would you fork out knowing full well that if it turned out that an error had been made in this respect your probably rather expensive purchase would never be allowed to race when you got it home?

the news

Plus 10: two becomes one

British and Irish industries unite under a single owner and breeder bonus scheme

T

he British Owners and Breeders Incentive Scheme (BOBIS) and the Racing Post Yearling Bonus sales incentive scheme are being replaced by a single, catch-all scheme named Plus 10.

After much bloodstock industry discussion, the new initiative will phase out BOBIS, which was launched in 2013, and the Racing Post Yearling Bonus scheme, which was set up at the beginning of the recession, over the next year.

Progeny out of all mares and by all stallions domiciled in Britain and Ireland will be eligible.

The project has the financial backing of the British Horseracing Authority (BHA), Horse Racing Ireland (HRI), the Horserace Betting Levy Board and the major bloodstock sales houses. A dedicated BHA resource is assigned to administer and promote the scheme.

The scheme is aiming to raise

John Ferguson: Darley has already registered 332 foals to Plus 10

£5.5 million from contributions from the above groups and through registration fees.

The organisers of Plus 10 believe it will become the most valuable owner and breeder scheme of its kind, and will be aiming to offer £10,000 bonuses on more than 550 two and threeyear-old races once the scheme is fully operational in 2016.

It is planned for Plus 10 to provide an incentive for breeders to keep their mares in Britain and Ireland, while encouraging

breeders outside the countries to support local bloodstock.

The scheme will at first operate in tandem with (BOBIS) before replacing it entirely in 2016, while the Racing Post Yearling Bonus Scheme is set to be phased out over the coming 12 months.

Sheikh Mohammed’s bloodstock adviser, John Ferguson, said Darley had welcomed the launch of the new scheme.

“As well as providing welcome prize-money bonuses to owners and breeders in Britain and Ireland, Plus 10 also recognises operations like Darley, which operate across multiple jurisdictions.

“It enables owners to purchase bloodstock with the knowledge their ownership experience will have the added benefit of racing for Plus 10 bonuses across their two and three-year-old seasons,” Ferguson said. “We believe Plus 10 will positively impact breeders large and small due to the incentive it offers people to invest in British and Irish bloodstock

and by rewarding those who opt to race locally.

“As a mark of our support for Plus 10, Darley has registered 332 foals into the bonus scheme.”

Bonuses won will be split between the owner (75 per cent), breeder (20 per cent) and stable staff, jockey and trainer (5 per cent). The 20 per cent breeder share will be split equally between the payees of the foal and yearling registration fees.

All of the money raised by the scheme, less administration costs, will be paid out in bonuses.

Any left over funds will roll over into future years.

Plus 10 Committee Chairman, Julian Richmond-Watson, described the launch of the scheme as a significant occasion.

“The launch of Plus 10 marks an important development for the British and Irish bloodstock and racing industries,” he said.

“By combining with Ireland we are able to offer larger bonuses, spread across a more targeted cross-section of races and which will, in time, expand to cover both the two and three-year-old racing seasons.

“It has taken a significant amount of work to arrive at this point and we are proud to be able to invite breeders to take the first step on the Plus 10 journey.”

Plus 10 detail Races

Year 1: 460 2yo races in Britain and Ireland will feature a Plus 10 bonus of £10,000 (€12,500).

In Great Britain • All class 2-4 maiden races • All class 2-4 novice races • All class 2-4 condition races • All class 5 fillies’ only maiden races

In Ireland

• All 2yo, non-black type races (open maiden, auction maiden, median auction maiden, nursery and winners’ races) until all 100 bonuses have been won* *Note: In the event not all Irish allocated bonuses are won by 2yo in 2015, the bonuses will be paid out to eligible winners of 3yo-only maiden races (including median auction maiden races) from the commencement of the 2016 Irish racing season, until all bonuses are won.

Eligibility

To be eligible a horse must be the product of a British or Irish domiciled stallion or mare.

Registration and Bonuses Paid

The Plus 10 registration process involves three payment stages, which must be made sequentially.

Stage 1: Foal Registration Pay: Breeder to pay a fee of £150 (€187.50) by

September 30 in the foal year.

Benefit: The payee of the foal registration fee will receive 10% of any Plus 10 bonuses won.

Stage 2: Yearling Registration Pay: A registration fee of £200 (€250) to be paid by

December 15 in the yearling year.

Benefit: The payee of the yearling registration fee will receive 10% of any Plus 10 bonuses won.

Stage 3: Owner Registration Pay: Owner to pay a fee of £350 (€437.50) by March

31 in the 2yo season. If an owner pays the owner registration fee before December 3, while the horse is still a yearling, a discount of £50 applies (€62.50).

Benefit: The recorded owner at the time of the win will receive 75% of any Plus 10 bonuses.

The balance of 5% of any Plus 10 bonuses won will be paid to the jockey, trainer and stable staff.

There will be transitional arrangements in place for BOBIS registered horses in the first year of operation.

Breeders should register their foals by September 30, 2014 to ensure they are qualified for 2015 races The first opportunity to invest in horses eligible for the scheme will be at the Doncaster Bloodstock Premier and Silver Sales on August 26-28.

the news

Mucho Macho Man retired LAST year’s Breeders’ Cup Classic winner Mucho Macho Man has been retired from racing due to injury and is to stand at Frank Stronach’s Adena Springs Farm in Kentucky next year. A fee to be announced at a later date.

Mucho Macho Man, a son of Macho Uno, won nine times during a 25-race career for trainer Kathy Ritvo, amassing career earnings of $5,625,410.

He is now a six-year-old.

He is a three-time Grade 1 winner – ahead of his Breeders’ Cup victory he collected the 1m1f Awesome Again Stakes at Santa Anita, while this January he won the 1m1f Florida Sunshine Millions. He is also the winner of

two Grade 2 races and finished third in the Kentucky Derby behind Animal Kingdom.

Bred by John and Carole Rio, Mucho Macho Man is the second foal out of the two-time winning Ponche mare Ponche De Leona.

She was sold, carrying a full sibling to Mucho Macho Man, for $300,000 at the 2011 Keeneland November Breeding-Stock Sale through Three Chimneys to Sallusto and Albina Agency.

Ponche De Leona was reoffered by Blake-Albina Thoroughbreds, carrying

to Distorted Humor, at this year’s January Sale, selling to Brushwood Stable for $775,000.

Mucho Macho Man will stand alongside his sire Macho Uno as well as the Classic winners Alphabet Soup, Awesome Again, Fort Larned and Ghostzapper at Adena Springs.

“The Breeders’ Cup Classic is a true championship race, and a forecaster of the industry’s future top sires,” said Stronach.

“Mucho Macho Man campaigned against the best every year ages two through six, and

top class meetings competing for horses and jockeys.

It is unfortunate that the Jockey Club is so selfish and blinkered in maintaining its right to stage the July Cup on such a busy Saturday. Surely it should have the interests of racing as a whole to work for? It is acting more like Arena than the custodians of English racing’s heritage.

Darley’s stallion parade was a welcome invitation and we were treated to an impressive line up.

Dubawi leads the team of established sires, including Exceed And Excel, New Approach, Teofilo, Kheleyf and Authorized.

He has confirmed his position as one of the top British-based stallions with 13 per cent stakes winners, including Group 2 winner Arabian Queen and Guineas winner Night Of Thunder.

Sires yet to have runners include Poet’s Voice, Sepoy, Helmet, Casamento (well priced at €5,000), Epaulette,who might struggle to match his recently deceased sire, Commands, and a possible staying prospect in Masterstroke, who is standing for €3,000 at Haras du Logis.

Needless to say, lunch almost matched the quality of the stallions

www.internationalthoroughbred.net

but did nothing to help Liam Norris’ s training routine for his 85-mile charity bike ride two days later!

After racing we were treated to a preview of the Frankel foals at Juddmonte. Not only are they strong physical types, but their temperaments also seem exceptional.

I was also lucky enough to be invited to the Darley Flying Start graduation ceremony on July 4 at Kildangan Stud.

T

he first generation clash of 2014 resulted in a significant victory for the senior team with Mukhadram and Trading Leather putting this year’s Classic generation firmly in their place.

Admittedly, it was a muddling race and certain jockeys were not seen at their best. It was left to Mark Johnston’s pacesetting outsider, Somewhat, a Listed two-year-old winner, to prove best of the three year olds.

With the King George VI and Sussex Stakes next on the calendar, and significant older heavy artillery, the sophomores may be left with something to prove. But it is encouraging for racing that older horses are left in training to provide local heroes and a good barometer for generation comparisons.

Slade Power tightened his hold on the European sprinting crown with a confident victory in the July Cup where older horses filled the first four places. Trainer Eddie Lynam has had five winners and a second from seven runners in Britain this year, it is a remarkable record.

Saturday July 12 provided a real headache for trainers with so many

Two years ago I had encouraged Camilla Whishaw from Armidale Stud in Tasmania to throw her hat in the ring ; she graduated this year with one of the four distinctions. She did a Natural Therapy course at university in Melbourne, is a nutrition expert and woe betide anyone a takes her on at medium to long-distance running.

She starts soon in the stallion department of Vinery Stud in the Hunter Valley.

The Flying Start course must be one of the finest things Sheikh Mohammed has done for racing and its graduates will have an increasing influence in every branch of the thoroughbred racing and breeding industry.

We were treated to four graduate speakers (luckily all 12 were not called on) and an excellent dinner. Smokers had to run the gauntlet of a vigilant Jim Bolger, who posted himself at the front door. Luckily there was a French window onto the back lawn and the addicts were able to escape Jim’s excoriating gaze.

Arqana’s August sale opens the European sales season and nine new sires have progeny on offer: Canford Cliffs, Cape Blanco, Dick Turpin, Dream Ahead, Poet’s Voice, Pour Moi, Roderic

the news consistently excelled around twoturns on the Dirt. He will be an important addition to our roster.”

Macho Uno has sired a further three Grade 1 winners – Stephen

Foster Handicap winner Macho Again, Private Zone, winner of the Vosburgh Invitational Stakes and Breeders’ Futurity Stakes winner Wicked Style.

Mucho Macho Man wins the Breeders’ Cup Classic with jockey Gary Stevens, who has had his own recent injury problems. He had knee replacement surgery in July and will be out of action until January

O’Connor and Wootton Bassett.

Le Havre is the hot sire of the moment with unbeaten Avenir Certain sure to add again to her the tally. He currently leads Mastercraftsman and Galileo in the French sires’ table.

Normandy is also hosting the World Equestrian Games later in August using stunning venues at Caen, Saint-Lo, Sartilly, Haras National du Pin and Deauville.

The Australian season is drawing to a close and Redoute’s Choice is set to claim his third national sires’ premiership at the expense of his son, fellow Arrowfield resident, Snitzel.

Australia’s leading first-season sire by a country mile is I Am Invincible, a son of Invincible Spirit. I was very impressed by him when I saw him at Yarraman Stud before he started covering. He had only won a Group 3 in Adelaide, but was second to Takeover Target in the Group 1 Goodwood. Like many successful sprinting sires, pedigree and performance sometimes play second fiddle to physical type.

At 16.2hh, he dwarfs his sire and certainly stamps his stock. His covering fee has nearly quadrupled, but is still only a third of his yearling average – a good business proposition.

Yarraman Stud is run by the brothers Arthur and Harry Mitchell, who are regular visitors to Europe.

Harvest is almost upon us and the threat of thunderstorms an everpresent worry to the oats, which have legs like Alexandra Robertson or Ana Hickmann.

We won a Newbury Show first for a standing oilseed rape crop; much to my sister’s irritation as she claims to be allergic to it.

We are besieged by red kites, up to 14 patrol the Downs and are plagued by magpies, seven to a pack. We also had a rare visit from a great bustard, which must have made an arduous trip up from the Salisbury Plain.

We are experimenting with some plots of sanfoin, sown late on the waterlogged patches of ground left by the late spring.

It has pink flowers, which gives great pollen for our bees, and is non-bloating for stock. It also has condensed tannin, which help increase protein absorption. It was a great feed for working horses, but only gives one crop and will not take overstocking.

It will run alongside our butterfly scheme, which we are hoping will reintroduce the Duke Of Burgundy to the area.

A section of downland has been cleared and railed off to be winter grazed by the Red Polls to encourage the cowslips, natural forage for the butterflies.

Australia’s half-brother is sold in private deal

The Dubawi yearling half-brother to this year’s dual Derby winner Australia, the son of Galileo who is out of the brilliant racehorse and now broodmare Ouija Board, will not be making an appearance at this autumn’s yearling sales. It has been disclosed that the colt has been sold in a private deal by Stanley House Stud to Sheikh Mohammed.

Peter Stanley, brother to Lord Derby, the owner of Ouija Board, said: “I can confirm the yearling half-brother to Australia by Dubawi has been sold privately to Darley Stud Management.

“He’s a quality horse and a different type to Australia, but that’s no surprise as Ouija Board hasn’t been stamping her stock. Dubawi looks like being a sensation as a stallion and we wish Sheikh Mohammed all the best with the colt.”

On whether the colt would have been offered at Tattersalls in October, he added: “We hadn’t totally made our minds up, but it would have been a commercially sensible decision to sell as Australia has just won two Derbys.”

Dubawi’s leading performer this year is the 2,000 Guineas winner Night Of Thunder, while he is the sire of 15 Group and Grade 1 winners through his stud career.

None of those to date have been out of a Cape Cross mare, however the Guineas winner Makfi and the Hong Kong Sprint victor Lucky Nine, are both out of mares by Green Desert, the sire of Cape Cross.

Australia selling at Tattersalls as a yearling in 2012 when he fetched 525,000gns, bought by Demi O’Byrne. The Derby winner’s Dubawi yearling half-brother won’t be seen at Park Paddocks in October

And he thinks “racing is fantastic in Japan” and is keen to expand his racing interests in the country It was a typically strong renewal of the July JRHA Select Sale, the highlight being the sale-topping purchase by Sheikh Fahad of the Deep Impact yearling colt out of the Group 1 Fillies’ Mile winner Listen for ¥260 million (£1,500,000).

Offered by Northern Farm, bids for the March-born colt rose quickly from his reserve of ¥100m (£575,000) with the Qatari having the final say for the colt from the immediate family of the Group 1 winners Sequoyah and Henrythenavigator. The price was the secondhighest ever paid at the sale for a yearling and a sharp Sheikh Fahad increase from last may be looking East year’s top price of to extend ¥180 million his racing Sheikh interests Fahad, who (Note: he’s got very good had recently taste in reading been granted material...) ownership rights in Japan, said to the media: “He looks like a champion and has a stallion’s pedigree. I don’t know if we’ll keep him to race here yet, but I hope he’ll be special after spending so much on him.

We’ll make a decision about his future later.”

Fahad already has horses in training in Japan with

Mitsumasa Nakauchida and is keen to expand his string in the country.

In total he spent ¥870 million at the two-day sale.

“I would definitely like to have more horses here in the future,” he added. “I think the racing here is fantastic. It has the best prize-money with a great system and the sales are excellent as well.”

Trained by Aidan O’Brien to win the Fillies’ Mile in 2007, Listen was sold privately to Katsumi Yoshida’s Northern Farm at the conclusion of her racing career.

Hajime Satomi paid ¥200 million for a Deep Impact colt out the US Grade 2 winner and Grade 1-placed daughter of Storm Cat, Magic Storm, while the top-priced filly was bought by Bando Bokujo for ¥145 million. By Deep Impact, she is out of the Ashland Stakes (G1) winner Lilacs And Lace (Flower Alley) and a grand-daughter of Stella Madrid.

Again offered by Northern Farm, the yearling colt, a brother to last year’s Grade 1 Queen Elizabeth II Cup runner-up Lachesis, is set to join the same connections as his Grade 3-placed brother Satono Aladdin, currently handled by Orfevre’s trainer Yasutoshi Ikee. Satomi had bought Satono Aladdin for ¥135.5 million as a foal at this sale in 2011.

Six of the top ten priced yearlings, including the top four, are by Deep Impact – Victoire Pisa, Daiwa Major, King Kamehameha and Heart’s Cry are the other stallions represented at the top.

A colt from the first crop of Harbinger fetched ¥76 million, bought

by Danox Xo Ltd. The top foal (Deep Impact) went to Riichi Kondo for ¥250 million, the daughter of US champion and Grade 1 winner Azeri (Jade Hunter).

Azeri has had four runners to date, all winners including the dual US Grade 2 heroine Wine Princess. Azeri was purchased by Katsumi Yoshida for $2,250,000 at Keeneland in 2009.

The other foal to top ¥200 million was bought by Takaya Shimakawa for ¥220 million, the bay Deep Impact colt being out of Admire Kirameki, a half-sister to the Japanese Group 1 winner Tosen Jordan and Group 2 winner Tosen Homareboshi.

David Redvers spent ¥180 million on the Deep Impact colt out of Muscial Way, the French Group 3 winner by Gold Away.

The only foal offered by Frankel, and sent to the sale by Sheikh Fahad, was a chestnut March-born filly. She sold to Toshio Terada for ¥96 million and is out of Goodwood March, a half-sister to the Hong Kong Jockey Club Mile winner Gold-Fun. She was bought at the Tattersalls December Sale last year for 650,000gns by Newsells Park Stud.

Power packed O

ver a period of time it becomes apparent that glory in elite company comes in waves. For the game’s leading operators, it is a rare season that goes by without some success at the highest level, but undoubtedly some periods are more rewarding than others. This summer, for instance, the colours of both Cheveley Park Stud and Hamdan Al Maktoum have been back in the Group 1 winners’ circle after an absence of four years.

At Newmarket’s July meeting, Cheveley Park Stud rode the crest with ticks in the boxes of both the Group 1 contests – David and Patricia Thompson’s historic nursery bred the Falmouth Stakes heroine Integral and stands Dutch Art, the sire of the July Cup winner Slade Power.

For Slade Power, it was very much business as usual as he followed his victory in Royal Ascot’s Diamond Jubilee Stakes with a clear-cut success in the second of the top-level 6f sprints on the European circuit. With the accent on business, a few days earlier a deal had been announced that will add him next year to the Darley stallion roster at Kildangan Stud.

The five-year-old will continue to race from Eddie Lynam’s County Meath yard in the colours of the Irish bookmaking Power family, who bred him and took him home for £5,000 as an unsold yearling. Their once ugly duckling, the first horse they bred, has now won more than £1 million and is not so much a swan as a bird of different stripe. His owners are layers; he has laid them a golden egg.

How Slade Power, the best son of a young, upwardly-mobile stallion, makes out in his second career remains to be seen but, as a modern commercial stallion, shuttling to the

Dual Group1 glory for Cheveley Park Stud headlined a fine Newmarket July meeting, which also saw a number of juveniles mark themselves out as Classic hopefuls for 2015, writes Sue Montgomery

Slade Power (above) gave Cheveley Park a Group 1 sire success as he is a son of the stud’s stallion Dutch Art. The sire’s nomination is now £35,000 – after the dual Group 1 success from Slade Power this summer, there is bound to be an increase for spring 2015

gb racing southern-hemisphere is likely to be part of his brief.

The opportunity to advertise his talents as a racehorse Down Under will come in the VCR Sprint at Flemington at the Melbourne Cup meeting in November.

This year is the first since 2005 that there has not been an Antipodean challenger on the European sprint circuit, but Australia’s best, the Redoute’s Choice gelding Lankan Rupee, will be waiting for Slade Power, whose mooted farewell in these parts, the Haydock Sprint Cup in September, is only lightly pencilled in.

“They have a different way of racing in Australia,” said jockey Wayne Lordan, “but it will take a good one to chin him down there.”

Slade Power’s opposition at Newmarket was reduced in strength by the absence, due to rain-eased ground, of his own stablemate Sole Power, winner of the King’s Stand Stakes, as well as Due Diligence, the Diamond Jubilee runner-up. It was also a messy enough contest with the field splitting into two groups, but Slade Power, the 7-4 favourite, could do no more than win with authority, beating 66-1 shot Tropics by daylight.

The international challenge came from US raider Undrafted, who acquitted himself most creditably in fourth, and Spanish star Noozhoh Canarias, whose sixth place was disappointing, certainly more so than his same spot in the 2,000 Guineas.

The most eye-catching performance perhaps came from Gregorian in third; the five-year-old son of Clodovil, who previously had three Group 1 places over a mile to his credit (the St James’s Palace and Prix Jean Prat at three and Queen Anne at four), would have been second with a clearer run on his first attempt as a sprinter.

The Fastnet Rock three-year-old Cougar Mountain, fifth on only his second career outing, also deserves a mention in despatches.

In almost a century and a half, Slade Power is the 23rd horse to win both the Ascot and Newmarket 6f features, and the fourth in nine years after Les Arcs (2006), Starspangledbanner (2010) and Lethal Force last year.

But only one has added the relatively recently founded (1966) Haydock contest to the CV – Tudor Music in 1969.

Just as Slade Power has been, Dutch Art was acquired mid-career by his future owners – in his case after he had proved himself one of the fastest and classiest of his generation

“

They have a different way of racing in Australia, but it will take a good one to chin him down there at two when his unbeaten campaign included the Prix Morny (G1) and Middle Park Stakes (G1). He did not win again, but he put up some notable performances in defeat, including third in the 2,000 Guineas and a close, and arguably unlucky, second in the July Cup (G1), a defeat now avenged by his best son.

Dutch Art, the best by his own sire and stud-mate Medicean, retired in 2008 and his first crop – which included Slade Power –

made him European first-season champion.

His fee has risen to £35,000 this year, with only the world-class veteran Pivotal more expensive on the Cheveley Park roster.

An Integral performance

Integral, unraced at two, has developed into a genuine top-class performer at four, as her heredity and environment say she should.

The daughter of Dalakhani, who scored her first Group 1 victory with her fair-andsquare 2l defeat of Coronation Stakes winner Rizeena, is trained by one of the game’s masters of patience, Sir Michael Stoute. Her dam Echelon was five when she broke her own duck at the highest level.

Their family has been at Cheveley Park since 1987 when Integral’s third dam Exclusive Order, then eight, was secured in Kentucky for $875,000.

At the time the Exclusive Native mare had not had a runner, but she went on to become

gb racing been a good foil. Integral, though, has turned out rather ‘greyhoundy’.”

Echelon’s two other runners, Galileo fillies Elysian and Provenance, have also won, albeit at a lower level. They came on either side of Integral, but in the pipeline now are a twoyear-old Shamardal filly named Entity, as well as a Medician yearling colt, due to appear in Tattersalls Book 1 in the autumn.

The mare is now in-foal to Dalakhani again and Exclusive’s family is also represented at Cheveley Park by her Falbrav daughter Expressive and by the sole foal from Chic (who sadly died young), the Dansili mare Elan.

Dalakhani (Darshaan), based at the Aga Khan’s Gilltown in County Kidare, stood at €25,000 this year, down from a high of double that five years ago. Integral is his seventh individual Group 1 winner, and his first over as short as a mile. Two days after the filly’s success, Terrubi gave him a Group 2 over rather further, the 1m6f Prix Maurice de Nieuil at Longchamp.

Integral was the first Group 1 winner to carry the Thompsons’ red, white and blue since Hooray took the Cheveley Park Stakes four years ago.

Integral (far left) : the Cheveley Park-bred daughter of Dalakhani is her sire’s first Group 1 winner over a mile

one of the greats, dam of ten winners from 13 foals. Her best was 2,000 Guineas winner Entrepreneur, the others including Exclusive, winner of the Coronation Stakes and third in the 1,000 Guineas, and Dance A Dream, runner-up in the Oaks.

Exclusive, by Polar Falcon, died last year at the age of 18 but proved a chip off the old block at stud, her six winners including two highclass fillies in Chic, a dual Group 2 winner and twice Group 1-placed, and Echelon, winner of the Group 1 Matron Stakes, and now dam of Integral, who is her second foal.

The family is also that of Virtual (Lockinge Stakes) and his short-lived sibling Iceman (Coventry Stakes), whose second dam Exclusive Virtue, by Shadeed, was acquired in utero with Exclusive Order.

Integral was conceived in 2009 – the previous year Conduit and Moonstone had advertised Dalakhani’s emerging potential at the highest level.

“

Integral was the first Group 1 winner to carry the Thompsons’ red, white and blue since Hooray took the Cheveley Park Stakes “We sent Echelon to him on the back of that good year,” said Cheveley Park manager Chris Richardson, “but there were other reasons as well. He’s out of a Miswaki mare and she’s by Danehill, which is a cross that has done well. And physically she is rather blocky, so a horse like Dalakhani would have

A fine summer for Shadwell: Estidhkaar shows Classic potential

When Taghrooda won the Oaks in June, she was the first Group 1 winner in Sheikh Hamdan’s blue and white since Bethrah won the 2010 Irish 1,000 Guineas.

A month after homebred Taghrooda’s Epsom triumph, Mukhadram added another in the Eclipse Stakes. And the Sheikh now has one of the early leading fancies for next year’s 2,000 Guineas in Estidhkaar, runaway winner of the Superlative Stakes (G2) at Newmarket.

By the time of the July meeting, with four Classics in the formbook, focus has sharpened on the next wave of contenders. The major juvenile events have yet to be run – the first at the top level in the European calendar is the Phoenix Stakes (G1) at The Curragh in August, but we may well have already seen the winners of both of next year’s Newmarket Guineas.

Six out of the past dozen 2,000 Guineas winners had made their debuts before the end of July of the relevant year, and nine of the 1,000 Guineas. But whether or not any of those running at the Newmarket summer showpiece fixture can make a Classic impact remains to be seen.

gb racing From the recent winners of the three Group 2 races only Dubawi and Dr Devious, in the Superlative Stakes, alongside Attraction and Sayyedati, in the Duchess Of Cambridge Stakes, have done so.

But you have to go back 61 years to find a winner of the July Stakes who went on to win a Classic – the 1954 2,000 Guineas winner Darius, so history must be somewhat against Ivawood, the latest to take the oldest surviving juvenile event in the calendar.

The Richard Hannon stable has dominated the two colts’ contests in recent years and Estidhkaar and Ivawood carried on that good work for “Junior” in his first season with the licence.

Estidhkaar, named after one of the major works of an 11th century Islamic prophet, gave the Wiltshire yard a third Superlative Stakes (G2) in five runnings, after King Torus, who did not progress to Group 1 company, and Olympic Glory, who decidedly did, in the Prix Jean-Luc Lagardère at two, the Queen Elizabeth II Stakes at three and the Lockinge Stakes this year.

Estidhkaar, by Dark Angel, showed an admirable attitude as he drew four and a half lengths clear of Aktabantay, head determinedly down. He has the paperwork to go with his ability – he is a half-brother to last season’s top juvenile Toormore, one of his stablemates, the pair bred by Jimmy Murphy at Redpender Stud out of the Danetime mare Danetime Out. (see Mare of the Month, page 83) Toormore was sold for £36,000 as a yearling, his young sibling for rather more at £200,000.

Ivawood heads up Zebedee’s progeny list

In the July Stakes, Ivawood gave the Hannons a fourth winner in five years of the 6f contest first run in 1786 after Libranno, Alhebayeb and Anjaal. He, too, was impressive, quickening away from Coventry Stakes third Jungle Cat to win by nearly 3l and he, too, is high in the early Guineas lists.

The strapping son of Zebedee, who races for Fiona Carmichael and Ian Jennings, was bred by Mary Davison and Debbie Kitchin (of Catherinestown and Kicreevan Studs respectively) and has changed hands twice, for €65,000 as a foal and 220,000gns as a yearling. He is the first produce of threetime winner Keenes Royale (Red Ransom), a half-sister to last year’s Chesham Stakes (L) winner Berkshire out of Group 1 Prix de l’Opera heroine Kinnaird.

€27,500 from a €10,000 start. His best has been last year’s top sprinter Lethal Force, who started his own stud career this year at Cheveley Park.

Just before Estidhkaar’s Newmarket success, his sire’s Cambridgeshire winner Bronze Angel took a decent handicap at York and, just after, Heaven’s Guest won the Bunbury Cup. Zebedee, who won the Flying Childers and the Molecomb Stakes from the Hannon stable, is at Tally Ho in County Westmeath and, though he has remained at €5,000 since he started, an upward revision is on the cards.

The son of Invincible Spirit is flying high in the first-crop table with Ivawood, his top-priced yearling, providing a first Group success.

Invincible Spirit himself notched a tenth individual Group 1 winner when Charm Spirit, fifth in the 2,000 Guineas, paid yet another compliment to the Newmarket Classic form by winning the Prix Jean Prat.

The favourite in both last year’s and this year’s Duchess Of Cambridge Stakes were both beaten, but if High Celebrity goes on to do as well as Rizeena there will be few complaints.

The latest winner, the David Elsworthtrained Arabian Queen, was bred by her owner Jeff Smith from his admirable oneeyed Barshiba, who won seven of her 35 races over five seasons, including two editions of the Group 2 Lancashire Oaks, shedding a Timeform squiggle in the process. (See Crossing the Channel, page 66).

Like Integral, Arabian Queen is a third-generation member of a family long-established at her resident stud, in her case Smith’s Littleton in Hampshire. One of his first buys for 58,000gns in 1986 was Alsiba, who had only moderate winning form

At stud her record is five winners from five runners so far, with Barshiba, by Barathea, her only filly until she produced another by New Approach last year. Arabian Queen, by

ever-reliable Dalham Hall resident Dubawi, is Barshiba’s first foal.

The Eclipse Stakes was, thanks to a top-class tactical ride by Paul Hanagan, a first Group 1 strike at the fifth attempt for Mukhadram after some near-misses, including when a badly-hampered third in the 1m2f Sandown showpiece the previous year.

The five-year-old, an 11th individual top-level winner for Shamardal, had been taken into the Shadwell fold as a foal for 190,000gns with a thoroughly Maktoum page to recommend him.

Moon

Jocelyn de Moubray was hugely impressed by the performance of Sea The Moon in the Deutsches Derby

T

he European three-year-olds of 2014 look to be an outstanding crop and at the beginning of July four of them appear to be true champions.

At their distances Kingman and Australia appear to be superior to their contemporaries in England and Ireland, while Avenir Certain is clearly the best filly of her generation in Europe.

The fourth Champion is even further

ahead of his domestic contemporaries, and the manner in which Sea The Moon won the Deutsches Derby suggests that Gestüt Görlsdorf’s son of Sea The Stars could well be the best of the whole generation.

Sea The Moon started a short-priced favourite for the Deutsches Derby, which was run on ground which was described as good after a heavy storm the day before Germany’s major Classic race.

The Markus Klug-trained colt went into the race unbeaten in three starts, an easy win on his only start at two and then a comfortable, if not spectacular, winner of a Group 3 at Frankfurt and a Group 2 in Cologne.

On his early starts at three he made the running and held on to win while hanging and looking as if he lacked the experience to show his true worth.

In Hamburg he had a new jockey in Christophe Soumillon, who had asked for and got the ride over the stable jockey Andreas Helfenbein. Soumillon rode with his habitual confidence and took his mount straight into the lead and, by the time Sea The Moon and his pursuers reached the back straight, the race was already over as a contest.

Christophe Soumillon: took over from Klug’s usual jockey in the Derby

“

Despite Soumillon easing Sea The Moon down to a gentle canter through the final furlong of the Deutsches Derby, the pair drew further and further clear Wild Chief was still trying hard to stay with the leader, but nearly all of the other 16 were being pushed hard just to stay in touch. On the turn into the home straight Soumillon asked his mount for an effort, following a plan thought out with his trainer, and he brought the colt across to the stands’ rail.

By the time the pair reached the rail, with the remainder of the field staying on the far side of the course, they were already well clear and when Soumillon looked over his shoulder, with more than a furlong to run, he saw that there was nothing within lengths.

Despite Soumillon easing Sea The Moon down to a gentle canter through the final furlong of the Deutsches Derby, the pair drew further and further clear.

At the line Sea The Moon was 11l clear of the Mehl Mulhens-Rennen (G1) winner Lucky Lion, who was himself two and a half

euro racing

Sea The Moon, by Sea The Stars out of a Monsun mare, put in a stunning effort in the Deutsches Derby and is the best of his generation lengths ahead of a group that included Eric, the winner of Germany’s richest two-yearold race in 2013, Speedy Approach, who had looked useful in England as a two-year-old, as well as Wild Chief who had finished fourth in the Prix du Jockey-Club and probably lost third place here through trying to keep pace with the winner.

It was a spectacular performance from a colt who still has limitless potential.

Hamburg is nobody’s favourite racecourse with its tight turns, short straight and often difficult ground, and yet the Derby has been run here for more than a 100 years.

It has been won by all of the great German champions of the modern era, but none in such a superior manner.

Sea The Moon is the third Derby winner in a row out of a mare by Monsun, and his unraced dam Sanwa is a sister to the Derby winners Samum and Schiaparelli, as well as to the German Oaks winner Salve Regina.

His fourth dam Bravour was Germany’s champion two-year-old filly in 1965.

Sea The Moon will be aimed at September’s Grosser Preis von Baden and then the Arc. Klug was a permit trainer in Baden-Baden before moving to Gestüt Röttgen in 2011, and although he is still only in his fourth season, he looks sure to become champion trainer and has already begun to win Group races abroad. At the beginning of July he had already had over 40 wins at a winners-torunners ratio of nearly 30 per cent.

Klug and Görlsdorf also look to have the best three-year-old staying filly in Germany

the unbeaten Wunder, a daughter of Adlerflug who was a comfortable winner of the Group 3 Prix Chloe at Chantilly days before Sea The Moon’s triumph.

Wunder started as an outsider in what had appeared to be a competitive field and she came from behind to defeat the Andre Fabrétrained Delivery and the Roger Charltontrained Be My Gal by a length and a half.

Wunder is not a prepossessing individual, she is a small light chestnut with plenty of white in her coat, and even Klug was not impressed initially, but she has not even looked close to her limits and is sure to start favourite for the Preis der Diana in August.

Her sire Adlerflug, an easy winner of the Deutsches Derby, who has the same third dam as Galileo and Sea The Stars, has made an impressive start to his stallion career and his first three-year-olds also include the more than useful Schlenderhan-owned colts Swacadelic and Ito. The son of In The Wings stands at Gestüt Harzburg.

The German 1,000 Guineas was also a high class race – the fourth Evita Peron has won a Listed in Newmarket since, the third Diamond Dove was second against older horses in a Group race in Hamburg and the winner, the Rock Of Gibraltar filly Ajaxana, put up a top performance when narrowly beaten by Red Dubawi in a Group 2 in July.

The Waldamar Hickst-trained filly was carrying a penalty and just failed to catch Red Dubawi, who has been transformed since moving to Germany. Ajaxana looks up to winning Group races outside Germany.

T

he French summer Group 1s, the Grand Prix de Paris over 1m4f at Longchamp and the Prix Jean Prat, run over a mile at Chantilly the following day, took place on unseasonably soft

ground.

The Grand Prix was run on ground which was rapidly turning heavy and during a downpour. The Prix du Jockey-Club winner The Grey Gatsby was never travelling well and was one of the first beaten by the strong early pace set by the John Gosden-trained Marzocco, who was followed through the early part of the race by Jean Charles Boudot on the Andre Fabré-trained Gallante.

Gallante is a homebred belonging to the Coolmore group and the son of Montjeu had disappointed when tried in two of the early Classic trials, finishing only third both times.

Dropped in class, Gallante won a conditions race impressively in mid-June and this time he took over from the leader in the straight and ran on bravely to hold the late challenge of Prince Gibraltar, who had looked unlucky in the Jockey-Club. On soft ground and with a strong pace Gallante is a top-class colt and there is no reason to suppose he is not the best staying three-year-old in France.

The Jean Prat attracted a strong foreigntrained challenge with Shifting Power and Muwaary being joined by Yuften, who had been fifth to Kingman in the St James’s Palace Stakes on his previous start.

Yuften set a steady pace before quickening impressively in the straight and he looked

euro racing for a long time like holding the challenges coming from behind.

Unfortunately the Invincible Spirit colt interfered with the Le Havre filly La Hoguette, who was making ground on his inside at the time, and was then caught in the final yards and passed by another son of Invincible Spirit, Sheikh Abdulla Al Thani’s Charm Spirit. Yuften was inevitably disqualified leaving second place to Shifting Power with La Hoguette gaining a Group 1 place in third.

Charm Spirit, who was bred and sold as a yearling by the Haras des Monceaux, is the fourth horse who was beaten in the 2,000 Guineas to win a Group 1 since. He is out of a mare by Montjeu, but his trainer Freddy Head has always felt that he might be a sprinter and Charm Spirit may have been suited by the slow early pace to win his Group 1 over a mile.

Head also said, after the Jean Prat, that if only his trainer had made a better choice he could have been a Classic winner as well as he wishes he had run him in the Poule d’Essai des Poulains and not in the 2,000 Guineas.

The Irish National Stud’s Invincible Spirit stood at a lower fee in 2010 at €45,000 when this year’s threeyear-olds were conceived.

After starting out at €10,000, he was increased through 2007 and 2008 to €75,000, but with the onset

“

Spiritjim gave his owner Jean Michel Hegesippe a first Group 1 victory and the son of Galileo is unbeaten in four starts this year of recession this was reduced in 2009 to €50,000 and then €45,000. Since then it has been making it’s way back up the scale and was back to €70,000 for 2014.

This year’s three-year-old crop includes several high-class colts, aside from the Group 1 winners Kingman and Charm Spirit, and he looks worthy of his high fee now.

The other significant three-year-old race in France was the Group 2 Prix de Malleret for fillies run over 1m4f at the end of June.

T

he Aga Khan ran a pacemaker to ensure a proper gallop for his Azamour filly Dolniya, and the plan worked out as she was able to hold the late challenges of Savanne and Lavender Lane comfortably.

Dolniya has won all three of her starts since finishing second to Savanne on her debut, and these two will be aimed at the best races for staying fillies.

Lavender Lane, in third, had looked unlucky in the Diane and is likely to drop back to 1m2f.

On the same day at Saint-Cloud, Noble Mission failed to win the Grand Prix de Saint Cloud, even though he had looked like a winner almost throughout the race.

James Doyle asked

Noble Mission to quicken into a clear lead at the top of the straight, which he did with impressive ease, but it is a long and uphill straight at Saint-Cloud, which is why regular course jockeys wait before making their effort.

With 200 yards to run Noble Mission’s stride went, and he went from cruising to victory to running on the spot.

Spiritjim, who had been in a fight for second place, was able to get to the leader in the final strides to win by a head, with the filly Siljan’s Saga a close-up third.

Spiritjim gave his owner Jean Michel Hegesippe a first Group 1 victory and the son of Galileo is unbeaten in four starts this year and his trainer Pascal Bary, who is having a fantastic season, is sure to aim the halfbrother to Silver Frost for the Arc. Guy Pariente’s Goken, yet another flying son of his sire Kendargent, is for the time being head and shoulders above the other two-year-olds in France.

After finishing only second on his debut in March, the Henri Alex Pantall-trained colt completed a hatrick of wins over 5f at Chantilly with a dismissal of what had looked a strong English challenge in the Group 3 Prix du Bois.

The runners from England and Germany never got into the race as Goken jumped out fast and, by the time the field passed the stands, with a furlong to run, he had already won his race.

He did not manage quite the same in the Prix Robert Papin behind Kool Kompany and Strath Burn from Britian, but the race was run on very soft, which may not have suited his blazing front-running tactics.

His dam Gooseley Chope did manage to win a race at two at Wissembourg, but she finished her career running in claiming races over hurdles. Goken is her first foal and yet another example of how Kendargent is able to transform the mares he covers.

James Doyle may have been caught out by the long climb up the Saint-Cloud straight when he and Noble Mission were done on the line

A new start in the States

The 2014 US yearling season launches at Fasig-Tipton, while for the first time Tapit takes a significant lead at the head of the sires’ table, reports Nancy Sexton

G

IVEN the wealth of opportunity that abounds within the claiming ranks, the need to buy horses in training at public auction isn’t nearly so prevalent in the US as it is in Europe. Nevertheless, the concept has been warmly embraced at Fasig-Tipton, whose second Summer Selected Horses in Training Sale in Kentucky last month attracted a deep bench of buyers willing to dig deep for anything with a whiff of quality.

Although figures for the horses in training section were unable to keep pace with last year – the average fell 27 per cent to $77,303 while the median dropped 22 per cent to $35,000 – Fasig-Tipton was able to present to buyers a greater catalogue of 147 lots (up from 89 in 2013) that was bolstered by 53 horses from the dispersal of Eugene Melnyk, best known as the owner of Speightstown and Flower Alley.

Sold by Taylor Made Sales Agency, the group realised a total of $3,877,000, which in turn contributed to total sales of $8,426,000, a major improvement from the $5,819,000 generated in 2013.

Another 13 mares and yearlings belonging to Melnyk passed through the ring for a total of $1,329,000.

Unsurprisingly, it was a member of the Melynk dispersal that bettered last year’s top price of $1 million. Chris Baker, acting on behalf of Three Chimneys Farm, went to $1,075,000 for the two-year-old Bedford Land, who was selling off the back of an impressive debut success for trainer Mark Casse at Churchill Downs. Baker had to fend off Stonestreet Stables for the filly, who boasts Melnyk breeding top to bottom as a daughter of Breeders’ Cup Sprint hero Speightstown and his Grade 1 Ruffian Handicap winner Pool Land.

However, Stonestreet didn’t come away empty handed. Bidding through advisor John Moynihan, Barbara Banke’s operation walked

Untapable is well on her way to becoming Tapit’s leading performer, a fitting result given that she hails from a well known family away with Hillaby, a daughter of Canadian Horse of the Year Sealy Hill, for whom they paid $500,000.

Also a member of Casse’s barn, the fouryear-old Distorted Humor filly had signalled her wellbeing by landing an allowance race at Woodbine in June.

A day’s trading that spanned nearly 12 hours concluded when the final horse through the ring, Tizcano, sold for $710,000 to Rockingham Ranch. The son of Tiznow arrived at Fasig-Tipton already looking a serious bargain having changed hands to Pedro Pacheco for just $20,000 at last year’s September Sale before romping in by 6l on his debut in June at Gulfstream Park for trainer Michael Yates. Understandably, he proved far more popular second time around.

Cowboy Cal colt tops yearling session

The sale’s traditional yearling session provided some encouragement for the rest of the sales season, not least because trading comprised a healthy mix of pinhookers and end users.

The Iadisernia family’s Northwest Stud in Florida are not afraid to spend big money on pinhooking prospects. Such a strategy was well rewarded earlier this year when the stud sold a Giant’s Causeway colt – a $550,000 yearling – for a co-topping $1.6 million at the

OBS March Sale, and the family wasted no time in heading back to the well at Fasig-Tipton paying $950,000 for two yearlings led by the $550,000 sale-topping colt.

By young Pin Oak Farm stallion Cowboy Cal, the colt was bred by Barronstown Stud out of Refugee, an excellent producer whose earlier foals include this year’s Santa Anita Derby runner-up Hoppertunity and multiple Grade 1 scorer Executiveprivilege.

Time will tell whether the colt can live

Above, the Fasig July Sale was a positive start to the US sales season, and, below left, Lot 414, Bedford Land topped the horses in training section

up to that illustrious heritage, but he has already provided one good turn in his short life having been a $145,000 pinhook

by McMahon and Hill out of last year’s Keeneland November Sale.

All told, 162 yearlings changed hands for a total of $15,253,000. Although the RNA rate rose from 26.5 per cent to 32.5 per cent, the average of $94,154 showed a minor increase of five per cent.

The American sales circus moves next month to Fasig-Tipton’s flagship yearling auction, the Saratoga Sale in New York. It will be a week where first-crop northernhemisphere progeny by the likes of Lonhro, Uncle Mo and Tizway will come under strong scrutiny while a pair of yearlings by Galileo have also been catalogued. However, in light of recent results, plenty of attention will also be garnered by the trio of yearlings on offer

by Tapit.

Grade 1 race, the Mother Goose Stakes at Belmont Park by over 9l. The race was little more than a paid workout for the half-sister to Paddy O’Prado. Steve Asmussen’s filly will take some beating if she lines up in next month’s Haskell Invitational at Monmouth Park.

For now, Untapable is well on her way to becoming Tapit’s leading performer, a fitting result given that she hails from a well known family – descending from Carols Christmas, also ancestress of Cuvee, Pyro and Olympio – cultivated by Winchell Thoroughbreds, who raced Tapit himself.

Tapit’s emergence as the US leading

stallion has to bode well for the future stud career of Mr Speaker, a colt bred on the same Pulpit-Unbridled cross as the stallion and who bagged a surprise first Grade 1 success in the inaugural Belmont Derby on Stars and Stripes Day at Belmont Park.

The highlight of a card that offered $3,250,000 in prize-money and two Grade 1 turf events, including the $1,250,000 Belmont Derby run over 1m2f, attracted European invaders Adelaide, Gailo Chop and Toast Of New York. The former appeared to have the race sewn up when quickening clear under Colm O’Donoghoe, but he had no answer to the finishing burst of Mr Speaker,

Top yearling: by Cowboy Cal, he is a half to Hoppertunity, second in this year’s Santa Anita Derby

Tapit going clear in sires’ table

Although we are not even two-thirds into the year, Gainesway Farm’s leading light has sired the earners of over $7.7 million – over $2.5 million more than his closest pursuer Speightstown – as well as eight Graded stakes winners.

Quality colts such as Belmont Stakes winner Tonalist, who went from maiden winner to Classic hero in the space of five months for Christophe Clement, and Florida Derby winner Constitution have each bagged Grade 1 races this season. But even they have been put in the shade by another member of the Tapit tribe, Winchell Thoroughbreds’ homebred filly Untapable.

Successful in the Kentucky Oaks at Churchill Downs in May, Untapable was unextended last month to take her second

A 14th Grade 1 winner for Lane’s End Farm stalwart Smart Strike, Minorette became a remarkable third Grade 1 winner from just four foals out of Silk And Scarlet who closed rapidly to score by a neck.

With a Grade 1 win under his belt, Mr Speaker is now very much a viable Kentucky stallion prospect, however, what makes him particularly exciting is his pedigree, one which is steeped in Phipps family history.

By noted sire of sires Pulpit, he is out of a daughter of the great Personal Ensign, herself dam of Grade 1 winners Miner’s Mark, My Flag and Traditionally.

Minorette emulates her siblings

Although European invaders Xcellence, Wonderfully and Flying Jib also failed to make much impact in the American Oaks, the race fell to a former Aidan O’Brien inmate in Coolmore’s Minorette. Sent to Chad Brown after running third in the Flame Of Tara Stakes for O’Brien, Minorette came into the American Oaks off a runner-up effort in the Wonder

Again Stakes at Belmont Park. She turned in an improved performance in the Oaks, drawing off from Sea Queen to win by 2l.

A 14th Grade 1 winner for Lane’s End Farm stalwart Smart Strike, Minorette became a remarkable third Grade 1 winner from just four foals out of Silk And Scarlet following Mile Championship winner Eishin Apollon (Giant’s Causeway) and Jebel Hatta scorer Master Of Hounds (Kingmambo) – they are now at stud in Japan and Argentina respectively.

As in the case of Brian Boru, Powerscourt and Await The Dawn, Silk And Scarlet was bred by Juddmonte Farms but raced by the Coolmore triumvirate. A daughter of Sadler’s Wells and related to Prix du Jockey-Club winner Sanglamore, Silk And Scarlet was a smart filly herself for Aidan O’Brien, winning the 2004 Debutante Stakes. However, as recent events show, she is rapidly developing into a broodmare of even greater note.

At Monmouth Park, the former Derby runner-up Main Sequence landed his first success since May 2012 when running down Twilight Eclipse to take the United Nations Handicap on his debut for Graham Motion.

In the process, the Niarchos-homebred became a first Grade 1 winner for Aldebaran, a triple Grade 1-winning sprinter who initially stood at Darby Dan Farm in Kentucky.

Main Sequence, who is out of the Pivotal mare Ikat, is one of only five Graded stakes winners in five American crops by the Niarchos-bred son of Mr. Prospector, figures which no doubt prompted his sale to Japan.

In California, last year’s champion two-year-old Shared Belief proved that his hoof issues are firmly behind him when successful on his first try on Dirt in the Grade 2 Los Alamitos Derby, while the Gold Cup at Santa Anita – formerly the Hollywood Gold Cup – fell to Sean McCarthy’s 14-1 longshot Majestic Harbor. Well beaten in fourth was the crowd favourite Game On Dude, who was bidding for a third victory in the race.

By the late Rockport Harbor, Majestic Harbor is the second Grade 1 winner this year bred by Liberation Farm and Brandywine Farm out of the French Deputy mare Champagne Royale following Arkansas Derby hero Danza (Street Boss).

Charles Sandford paid $410,000 for Lot 259, a colt from the first-crop of Claiborne stallion Blame

Sandford also bought this Unbridled’s Song colt (Lot 110), the third top lot, for $400,000

Shamardal shines

It’s been a stand-out year for the son of Giant’s Causeway, reports Alan Porter, and the stallion has a strong chance now of continuing the sire line in Europe

T

he decision to shorten the distance of the Prix du Jockey-Club to 1m2f (2100m) was – and still remains – a very controversional one. It does, however, seem to have paid a dividend in one regard.

During it’s lengthy history – the race was first run in 1836, and other than wartime interruptions was contested at its traditional distance of 1m4f from 1843 to 2004 – the Classic was won by a number of horses whose names would be recognised as major influences in the evolution of the breed, among them Ajax, Teddy, Ksar, Tourbillon, Prince Chevalier, Sicambre, Herbager, Val De Loir, Le Fabuleux, Caerleon and Darshaan.

Despite that, in the last 20 years prior to the distance change, it can be argued

that only Montjeu turned into a truly outstanding stallion, although it would have to be conceded that other winners Bering, Hernando, Peintre Célèbre and Dalakhani have all been at least useful.

Looking at things since the drop in distance, and while admitting that it’s early for a true judgement to be passed, the first three winners of the “new” Prix du JockeyClub to enter service as European Flat sires – Shamardal, Lawman and Le Havre – have all sired Classic winners in their first crop.

It’s a fair bet that Shamardal, the first winner of the shortened edition of the race, would not have been in the line-up had he been born a year earlier.

Three for three at two, Shamardal scored by 8l on his debut, then took the Veuve Clicquot Vintage Stakes (G2) by an

untroubled two and a half lengths from the subsequent Breeders’ Cup Juvenile (G1) winner Wilko.

The season was completed with a dominating two and a half lengths victory over Oratorio in the Dewhurst Stakes (G1), a performance that ensured Shamardal’s standing as European champion two-yearold.

Sent to winter in Dubai, Shamardal initially had the Kentucky Derby (G1) as his spring target, but that plan was buried in the Nad Al Sheba sand as Shamardal finished the better part of 50l behind winner Blues And Royals, in the UAE Derby (G2).

Re-routed to the Prix Poule d’Essai des Poulains (G1), Shamardal set out in his customary style to make all, and at the end of the race, had just enough in hand to hold

stallion profile on by a head and a neck from Indesatchel and Gharir. In the Jockey-Club, Shamardal again took the initiative from the off, benefitting from a shrewd ride by Frankie Dettori, who slowed the pace before sprinting for home with around a furlong and a half to run.

With finishing pace at a premium, Shamardal just lasted home by a neck from the fast-closing Hurricane Run, a true 1m4f horse who won the Irish Derby (G1) on his next start. Shamardal closed out his career back at a mile in the St. James’s Palace Stakes (G1). Adopting his usual front-running role, Shamardal quickened clear of his field 3f from home, then coasted home 3l clear of Ad Valorem. Pointed towards the Eclipse Stakes (G1), Shamardal fractured a front fetlock joint, and was retired to stand at Kildangan Stud (also shuttling to Australia).

In addition to a race-record that had earned him a European championship at two, as well as honours as the top miler of his crop at three, Shamardal also took to stud an impressive pedigree.

From the first crop of European Horse of the Year Giant’s Causeway, Shamardal is out of Helskinki, a stakes-placed sister to Street Cry (Machiavellian).

Success from the outset

Given those credentials, it is not surprising that Shamardal was a success from the word go. His first Australian crop – conceived when he was three – yielded ten stakes winners from 74 foals, headed by the VRC Oaks (G1) winner Faint Perfume, and Captain Sonador, who took the AJC Epsom Handicap (G1).

Shamardal’s first European crop, contained 112 foals, of which 17 captured stakes events, nine of them at Group or Graded level, among them Lope De Vega, who emulated his sire by completing the Prix Poule d’Essai des Poulains / Jockey-Club double, and Zazou, successful in the Premio Roma (G1) and also winner of four German Group events.

Leading European first-season sire, Shamardal then finished second to Dubawi on the second-season sires’ list and continued to establish himself as a very reliable source of stakes winners.

This year, however, he has taken things to a new level – from the beginning of the year to early July, Shamardal has had 19 stakes winners, ten of which are Group or Graded class, who have scored in England, Ireland, France, Germany, the UAE, Hong Kong, Singapore and Australia. This outstanding season has been highlighted by

40

www.internationalthoroughbred.net

the victories of Dan Excel (previously known as Dunboyne Express) in the Singapore Airlines International Cup (G1) and most recently Mukhadram, who defeated six Group or Grade 1 winners to take the Eclipse Stakes (G1).

Mr Prospector cross: had been disappointing

Mukhadram is out of a Mr. Prospector line mare, as, of course, is Shamardal. There is

something of a paradox in that the cross had not initially been Shamardal’s strongest – in fact it at one stage it had a very disappointing strike-rate – yet it has produced what might well be his two best runners Mukhadram and Lope De Vega.

Inspection shows that it does seem to be a nick that does better as Mr. Prospector recedes along the male-line: overall there have been nine Shamardal stakes winners from 108 starters out of mares by Mr.

stallion profile Prospector, his sons and grandsons, for 8.33 per cent stakes winners to starters, compared to 9.54 per cent for mare by all other broodmare sires.

However, with mares by grandsons of Mr. Prospector, Shamardal has five stakes winners from 43 starters – an improved 11.62 per cent stakes winners to starters.

Lope De Vega’s pedigree is unusual – he is out of a mare by Vettori, a son of Machiavellian, also the broodmare sire of Shamardal, and so

“

inbred to Machiavellian 3 x 3.

Mukhadram is out of a mare by Timber Country, a son of Woodman, and there are also two stakes winners, including graded scorer French Navy, out of mares by Woodman himself.

Shamardal also has a stakes winner out of a mare by Seeking The Gold (bred on the same cross as Woodman), a Group winner out of a mare by Dubai Destination, as well as a stakes winner out of a mare by King’s Best (both by

Mukhadram (far left) made all to win the Coral Eclipse Stakes at Sandown in July, giving sire Shamardal 19 stakes winners in 2014, ten of which have been at Group or Graded class. Mukhadram is one of four Group 1 winners from the sire’s 2009 crop

Lope De Vega’s pedigree is rather unusual – he is out of a mare by Vettori, a son of Machiavellian, also the broodmare sire of Shamardal Kingmambo) and Group/Graded winners Oregon Lady and Ghibellines out of mares

by Gone West and his son Elusive Quality.

There is also a stakes winner out of a mare by Unbridled’s Song.

Shamardal crossed over Northern Dancer line mares

Shamardal over mares from the Danzig line has produced nine stakes winners, including the Group/Grade 1 winners Amaron (dam by Bertolini), Casamento (Always Fair) and Dan Excel (Polish Precedent).

The cross with Danzig through Danehill and his sons hasn’t been the strongest version, with Group 3 winner Duel, out of a mare by Danehill, and two stakes winners in Australia out of Redoute’s Choice daughters.

We can also note that Group winner Elle Shadow is out of a Roi Danzig mare, and the New Zealand-bred Able Friend, winner of the valuable Hong Kong Mile, is out of a mare by Volksraad. Given that Volksraad is by Green Desert, and that Bertolini is a three-quarters brother to that horse, one might anticipate mares by Green Desert’s sons having a shot under Shamardal.

Shamardal has eight stakes winners out of mares from the Sadler’s Wells branch of Northern Dancer, including the Group 1 winner Crackerjack King, who is out of the stellar producer Claba Di San Jore and one of two stakes winners from daughters of Barathea. Green Desert and Barathea are both Northern Dancer/Sir Gaylord crosses,

while Shamardal’s grandsire, Storm Cat, is bred on a cross of Northern Dancer over a mare by Sir Gaylord’s brother, Secretariat.

The Northern Dancer/Sir Gaylord/ Secretariat motif also appears in Mukhadram, who has Northern Dancer over both half-brothers in his dam.

Shamardal also has a stakes winner out of a mare by Sadler’s Wells’s son Imperial Ballet, three Group winners out of mares by Sadler’s Wells himself and a stakes winner out of a mare by Singspiel. He also has a stakes winner out of a mare by Sadler’s Wells’s brother Fairy King and another out of his son, Encosta De Lago.

Shamardal and Storm Bird

Storm Cat’s sire Storm Bird is bred on similar lines to Nijinsky, and that son of Northern Dancer appears in at least nine Shamardal stakes winners, with those out of Nijinsky line mares including the prolific Zazou (dam by Lomitas) and Group 2 scorer No Evidence Needed, whose dam is by Generous, by Caerleon, himself broodmare sire of a Shamardal stakes winner.

The other Shamardal Group/Grade 1 winners out of Northern Dancer line mares are the Prix Saint-Alary (G1) heroine Sagawara, whose dam is by Linamix, and Maybe Discreet, who took the SAJC Schweppes Oaks (G1) and is out of a mare by Bluebird (a Storm Bird/Sir Gaylord cross, so similar to Shamardal’s grandsire, Storm Cat).

He’s also had a stakes winner out of a mare by

Bluebird’s son, Dolphin Street.

From other branches of the Northern Dancer line, Shamardal also has a Group winner out of a mare by Alzao (another Northern Dancer/Sir Gaylord cross), a Group winner out of a mare by Priolo (whose sire, Sovereign Dancer is a Northern Dancer/ Bold Ruler cross, like Storm Cat), two stakes winners, one Group class, out of mares by Unfuwain, and stakes winners out of mares

by Shareef Dancer (Northern Dancer/Sir Gaylord again) and his son General Nedyim, as well as out of the Nureyev line horses Ashkalani and Soviet Lad.

Shamardal and the “others”

We can also note Group winners out of mares by Ahonoora’s sons Indian Ridge and Inchinor; a graded scorer out of an A.P. Indy mare; two stakes winners out of daughters of Rainbow Quest and a stakes winner out of a Monsun.

Shamardal’s Australian Grade 1 winner Faint Perfume is out of a mare by Zabeel, and he has had a stakes winner out of a mare by that horse’s son Octagonal.

Funnily enough, Zabeel, the leading sire son of Sir Tristram and out of a Nureyev mare, is a reverse of the Sir Gaylord/Northern Dancer cross we’ve been seeing so often.

Faint Perfume’s dam is actually fairly heavily linebred to Northern Dancer – her second dam is Danehill’s excellent daughter Danendri, while her third dam is by Storm Bird.

Given his three sire crowns in the US, it’s hard to argue that Giant’s Causeway’s move from Ireland after just one season was not a shrewd one, but it’s interesting to contemplate how he might have done had he remained in Europe.

Through Shamardal, however, who is still only 12-years-old, and who already has 65 stakes winners to his name, he has a shot at founding an enduring European branch of the Storm Cat line.

ew breeders get a second chance of winning a race such as the Prix du Jockey-Club. Pierre Talvard came within a short head of winning the Chantilly Classic at the beginning of his career as a breeder when Ghost Buster’s, trained by François Doumen, came within a short head of beating Hours After in the 1988 edition.

“It was not,” admits Talvard, “the best Jockey-Club of all time, but it was still a great thrill.”

Now, over 25 years later, Talvard’s Haras du Cadran got its second opportunity, but this

year its graduate The Grey Gatsby went into the race as one of the fancied horses having won the Dante Stakes on his previous start.

“If I have to wait another 25 years for the next one I probably won’t be there to see it!” he laughs. “Winning a top race once makes you more determined than ever to do so again.

“I think I am more passionate about racing and breeding now than I ever was before.

Racing is a passion which has grown into an obsession; I don’t think about anything else, let alone find time to do something else. A day when the stud doesn’t have a runner is almost

“

Racing is a passion which has grown into an obsession; I don’t think about anything else, let alone find time to do something else sure to be a bad one, whereas if I open the Paris Turf first thing in the morning and see we have two or three then it begins to feel like a good day!

“If we don’t have a runner all week then the days will drag by filled with boredom.”

The Grey Gatsby was bred by English breeder Malcolm Parish, who is one of the many clients with boarders at the Haras du Cadran. When Talvard started the Haras du Cadran, found close to the village of Ommeel, near Argentan in the south of Normandy in 1982, the farm stretched over 18 hectares.

Today the Haras du Cadran covers 250 and is spread over different sites with the original farm reserved for weanlings and yearlings.

There are a total of 100 mares based at the stud. Talvard, alongside his son and business partner Emmanuel, has shares in about 30 of them, but Marie Vison, the dam of The Grey Gatsby, is no longer there.

“We sold The Grey Gatsby as a yearling at the Deauville October Sale for only €24,000,” Talvard says. “He really didn’t look like a racehorse, but only because of his colour – I always liked him physically but he was a light grey with plenty of white on his legs, and at the time his sire Mastercraftsman was not particularly fashionable.”

That same year Parish decided to sell all of his mares and so Marie Vison, in-foal for a second time to Mastercraftsman, with her filly foal by Fastnet Rock, went to the Arqana December Sale, and were bought, for only €11,000 and €5,000, by the Moroccan breeder Azeddine Sedrati.

The pair are still in Morocco as, for the time being, Sedrati has turned down offers for both the mare and the now two-year-old half-sister to the Jockey-Club winner.

pierre talvard breeding right back and told us to sell,” Talvard explains. “At that point Marie Vison had been to very good stallions without producing either a sales yearling or a good horse and so it seemed to be a reasonable decision – at the time.”

The following May, The Grey Gatsby was offered for sale again at the Arqana Breeze-Up by Grove Stud and this time he made more of a splash being knocked down to Stephen Hillen for €120,000. “I saw him at Saint-Cloud,” Talvard remembers, “and I liked him less as I thought he had become too big and heavy.”

The next time Talvard was close to The Grey Gatsby was in the Chantilly winners’ enclosure.

“It may not have been a fantastic JockeyClub,” Talvard reasons, “but there were plenty

of good horses in the field and The Grey Gatsby won easily by a clear margin. I am sure he is a very good horse. Now, not only has Mastercraftsman become popular, but people have realised that most of his good horses, such as Kingston Hill and The Grey Gatsby, are grey.”

And how did it feel to win the Jockey-Club?

“Hard to describe,” smiles Talvard, “but above all I wanted to get in my car and rush back to the stud to celebrate with the team who do the work every day.

“Big races do generate extraordinary emotions; I think it is great when someone like Jean-Claude Rouget breaks down on television after the winning the Diane. It shows just what racing, owning and breeding can give you.”

Talvard and his team have a great deal to

pierre talvard

do in the coming weeks as the stud is offering 20 yearlings in the main August sale and another three in the V2.

“We only present yearlings who were raised on the farm,” he specifies. In the first part of the sale Cadran has three – the first foal of the multiple stakes performer Kartica, --by Danehill Dancer, a Rip Van Winkle half-brother to three excellent two-year-olds, including Sunday Nectar who went on to be Group-placed at Goodwood, as well as a half-brother to last year’s two-year-old Group winner Vedeux from the first crop of Zoffany.

Two-year-old racing plays a large part in Cadran’s success. “We had 29 individual two-year-old winners last year,” he explains.

“I think if anything has changed during my time breeding here it is that we do all we can these days to help young horses while they are growing.

“I have learnt that they need to look good the whole time, during the winter when the weather is always wet and humid, as well as in the spring and at the sales – from the moment they are weaned, right up to the time they go into training.

“Training is tough for young horses and if they are to be ready for it you have to help them and feed them when they need it.”

Talvard was brought up in the Vendée region of France, on the west coast, south of Nantes. He began working on a stud farm there, which is where he first came across thoroughbreds, moving on to work for

“

Winning a top race once makes you more determined than ever to do so again Jean Marc Lucas at the Haras de Preaux in Normandy. At Preaux he met Jean Claude Seroul, who has been his partner and client ever since.

“We have been working together for 37 years,” Talvard says. “And many of his good horses such as Gris De Gris, Baby Foot were raised here and Jean Claude has 29 mares based on the farm.”

Aside from Seroul there are numerous other breeders who board at Cadran, the farm sends out 60 different invoices every month; Talvard likes to buy mares in partnership.

“I never sell mares,” he says, “but I am always looking to buy them and for partners to buy with me.” His favourite place to look is Keeneland in November. “I love the place,” he says, “and it is my annual holiday to go there and see what I can find. I didn’t go in 2012 and it took me a year to stop regretting it!”

Aside from The Grey Gatsby there are two other Cadran graduates about whom Talvard is particularly excited – GM Hopkins, a three-year-old Dubawi colt who is in training

It’s all in the feeding: yearlings at Haras du Cadran

with John Gosden having been sold at the 2012 August sale. He has run three times and won his only start at three at Nottingham impressively.

“Charlie Liverton, who manages the owner’s string, tells me they have an ambitious programme lined up for him later in the year,” Talvard says. “He is out of a young Lomitas mare called Varsity in whom I really believe. I have always wanted to sell a yearling in Newmarket and my plan is to take her Henrythenavigator foal there once GM Hopkins has boosted the family.”

The other horse he picks out is an unraced two-year-old Elusive City colt who went through last year’s August sale.

“He is called Never Return and is in training with Carlos Lerner. He is out of the Alzao mare Seba who has already produced a very good two-year-old Sheistheboss, who broke down when stakes placed on only her second start. I have been working with Carlos for many years, and he really likes this colt.”

With these three running for him and the farm between now and the yearling sales there should not be too many weeks of boredom at the Haras du Cadran, and it seems unlikely, the ways things are going, that it will be 25 years before the stud’s next major victory.

“Do you think the stud is going well?”

Talvard asks. “I haven’t really thought about it,” he adds. “All I want is more winners!”

corine barande-barbe

The horse of a lifetime Liz Price meets Corine Barande-Barbe, trainer of Cirrus Des Aigles and finds a love affair between her and the brilliant racehorse

S

he has been called a dreamer, unrealistic and even mad, yet there is no denying it, when it comes to Cirrus Des Aigles, Corine Barande-Barbe’s moves and decisions have been spot on.

From humble beginnings when he finished fourth in a two-year-old maiden at Chantilly to becoming the world’s best racehorse three years later, and the only horse to have ever threatened the mighty Frankel, Cirrus Des Aigles and Corine Barande-Barbe have defied the odds more than once.

A “freak” accident of nature, Cirrus Des Aigles is the product of a marriage between an unfashionable sire, with a reputation for producing more jumpers than Flat horses, and a mare whose only claim to fame is that she is a daughter of the Seattle Slew stallion Septieme Ciel.

Barande-Barbe, despite being a Classicwinning trainer thanks to another happy accident of nature called Carling, is considered a small trainer with only a handful of handicappers in her yard at Chantilly.

Cirrus’s owner Jean-Claude-Alain Dupouy fits right in with this unlikely duo too. Even though he has been a registered owner since 2007 when Mesnil Des Aigles, Cirrus’s older brother, was running in his colours, it would be a vast exaggeration to call his silks famous.

That is if it wasn’t for Cirrus Des Aigles.

Over the course of his seven-year reign on some of the world’s biggest and most prestigious racecourses, Cirrus Des Aigles has not only succeeded in turning himself into a celebrity, who has his own Facebook page, but those who surround him – his trainer, owner, jockey and even his ever smiling lass and fashionista Zoe – have been touched by fame.

He has changed Barande-Barbe’s life forever and she freely admits to being a slave to his every move and actions.

So when jockey Christophe Soumillon jumped off Cirrus Des Aigles only moments

“

...that one split second when everyone thought that he might beat Frankel, that is a moment which still gives me goose bumps

after steering him to victory in the 2014 Coronation Cup at Epsom in June, there was an audible intake of breath from the French trainer’s corner.

However, the moment of anxiety was short lived. “I could see straight away from the way he was walking that Christophe had jumped off more as a precaution than anything else,” she says. “Yes, he was a bit sore, but I knew it wasn’t career threatening.”

She smiles and adds: “I know him inside out. If you have spent as much time as I have with him, you just know. He has always had problems with his feet and it wasn’t anything important.”

Seconds after this shot was taken, Christophe Soumillon jumped off Cirrus Des Aigles (in front) as the horse pulled up lame. The horse has now had six weeks’ rest and is ready to start training again (July). Barande-Barbe says Cirrus tells her he’d like to run next in the Prix Dollar and then the Champion Stakes

Corine Barande-Barbe admits that she “did not know how to run a yard”, but Cirrus has taught her how to “manage my yard and life more efficiently”

In the end it was Barande-Barbe herself who insisted that Cirrus Des Aigles should enter the winners’ enclosure as she wanted to avoid “a drama and everyone thinking the worst, while I knew it wasn’t anything bad”.

Following a veterinary exam on track, as well as back at Chantilly, it was confirmed that Cirrus Des Aigles had escaped serious injury and all that was needed was a six-week break with walking exercise only.

It meant giving Royal Ascot a miss, but in the great scheme of things, that was of no importance. In July, he was still wearing his bandage, but was clearly bursting to get back onto the track, which he demonstrated by trying to pull his poor lad from one corner of the green to the other.

“Cirrus has always known to look after himself and he is definitely telling me that he is ready to start training again,” confirms Barande-Barbe. “He wants to run in the Prix Dollar and then the Champion Stakes.”

That Cirrus and Corine have conversations and that she treats him like her best friend is part of the reason why she is often considered, well, let’s call it eccentric.

She throws her head back and laughs: “People can say what they want, but I believe that you have to listen to what the horses tell

www.internationalthoroughbred.net

51

corine barande-barbe

“

Cirrus will tell me when he has had enough and until then we shall go on as usual you if you want to understand them. And yes, I do consider him my friend who I would like to have around me forever.”

Forever is a big word though and she knows that it doesn’t really exist when it comes to racehorses, however, any mention of retirement makes her bristle. She explains: “About three years ago I was told by a journalist that I must surely be thinking of retiring Cirrus, you know seeing that he was nearly six. Why? Why should I retire a horse that enjoys running so much. He is a gelding, so it’s not like he can go to stud.

“At the end of each season I’m asked the retirement question and then at the start of each new season I’m asked if I think that he is still as good as last year. And the answer is still the same. Cirrus will tell me when he has had enough and until then we shall go on as usual.”

T

here are certainly not many horses who win three Group 1 races at the age of eight. And not just any Group 1 races, but those that attract much the younger Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe winners. Beating Treve doesn’t rank that high though and Barande-Barbe clearly prefers his victory in the Champion Stakes at Ascot.

“It seems unreal today, but that was his first Group 1 victory and everyone had told me beforehand that I was mad to take him there based on a couple of Group 3 and Group 2 victories,” smiles Barande-Barbe. “So when he did it, when he beat all those good horses, especially at Ascot, it was just hugely satisfying.”

She pauses, looks at the painting behind here that she has just been given and adds: “Although I have to admit that the next year, when he returned to Ascot and ran against Frankel, that was maybe even more exhilarating. Even though he got beat.

“That one moment, when everyone went quiet in the stands because for one split

52

second when everyone thought that he might beat Frankel, that is a moment which still gives me goose bumps.

“You might not believe me, surely I would have loved Cirrus to have won that day, but actually, I’m really relieved that he didn’t!

“I think it was great that Frankel was able to write such a great story and maybe Cirrus will write his own one day.”

Writing Cirrus Des Aigles’s story is something Corine might consider the day he

does eventually retire, but she doesn’t really think about what may happen or might not happen. All she would like, is to have him close to her.

“That day at Epsom was nothing in comparison to the winter of 2011-12 when his owners were offered a substantial amount of money for him,” she winces. “It doesn’t happen often that those amounts are offered for a gelding and I made a point of not trying to influence the owners, but I can tell you that

corine barande-barbe had he been sold, he wouldn’t have stayed in training with me.”

In the end, his current owners calculated, correctly as it turned out, that he could win the same amount and maybe even more by continuing to run in the world’s premier races.

“I was so relieved, I can’t tell you,” says Barande-Barbe. “That was really an awful winter.”

She is coy about revealing who it was who made the offer, but whoever it was saw it right

corine barande-barbe as Cirrus Des Aigles, a winner of the valuable Dubai Sheema Classic, is well on his way of becoming the highest earner in Europe.

Only the Dubai World Cup winner Gloria De Campeao is financially still ahead of him and his trainer admits that beating that record would be one of her ambitions. That and a victory in Hong Kong.

“Sometimes I wonder why he arrived in my yard and not in someone else’s,” muses Barande-Barbe.

“It could have all turned out so differently.

Cirrus has taught me so much. I was quite young when I started in this business – I learnt a lot from Maurice Zilber for whom I have only admiration.

“It wasn’t easy as a woman to obtain a training licence and I frankly didn’t really know how to run a yard, so financially I have known my ups and downs.

“But Cirrus has taught me how to manage my yard and life more efficiently. The day he does retire, and don’t get me wrong, I’m not under any illusion that it will go on forever, I will be all right. I will probably have less

“

It wasn’t easy as a woman to obtain a training licence and I frankly didn’t really know how to run a yard, so financially I have known my ups and downs horses, but that will suit me.

“And hopefully he will remain in my yard so that I can see him. Not that you could use him as a pony as he is quite cheeky, but I think he just loves the hustle and bustle of a training yard.”

So not that much a dreamer then, but a realist? Barande-Barbe laughs and says: “You know it’s so strange, here we are in a business

based on dreams, intuition, gut feeling and living creatures, yet when you dare to dream, you get called mad or crazy!

“Cirrus would have never achieved everything he has achieved if I hadn’t dared to enter him in these races. I am very realistic when it comes to his ability and I would never ask him to do anything he is not capable of doing. And I would never risk his health either.

“So, as I said, when he is ready to end his career on the track, I will not hesitate but give him the retirement he deserves.

“Yet, looking at him, I would venture that he is not quite ready for it yet.”

Yes, watching Cirrus Des Aigles bounce about under the trees in the yard at Chantilly that he has called home for the last seven years, as fresh as a daisy and eager to get back into work, it does indeed seem that retirement is still a long way off.

And while we all can’t wait to read his story, it would be nice if it included a few more chapters before the final page that says The End.

Vivre Vidal!

Sylvain and Elizabeth Vidal have run Haras de la Cauvinière for less then ten years, but, as Jocelyn de Moubray discovers, it already stands the best stallion in France, and has produced Classic winner Avenir Certain

A

Fter Avenir Certain had come with her brilliant run to race past more or less the entire field and win the Prix de Diane at Chantilly, those watching on Equidia were given a glimpse of what such a victory means to those most closely involved.

As jockey Gregory Benoist stood in the stirrups to celebrate, the camera switched to Avenir Certain’s trainer Jean-Claude Rouget, who had watched this demonstration of great class from the lawn in front of Chantilly’s stand.

Rouget has been a successful trainer for more than 30 years, and has been winning Group 1 races regularly during recent seasons, and, yet, some victories mean more than others.

57

sylvain vidal Momentarily overcome, rather than turning and speaking to the camera which was following him, Rouget took his interviewer Miguel Blancpain in his arms and appeared to be sobbing on his shoulder while they began jumping together in a victory embrace.

When he had recovered his habitual composure, Rouget explained that he had has always found the ex-jockey Blancpain “sympathique” and that to win the Diane with a champion filly, who is also a daughter of Le Havre, meant a great deal.

“Le Havre’s victory in the Prix du JockeyClub was already an important moment,” he said. “I had had many horses with a big chance before without winning a Classic and people said that Rouget’s horses peak too soon, that I could win the trials but not the races which count, and so winning the first Classic broke a barrier.

“And Le Havre is just an extraordinary

“

Le Havre is just an extraordinary horse: he keeps achieving and has transformed peoples’ lives horse, he keeps achieving and has transformed peoples’ lives.”

Rouget had set in motion these transformations when he paid €100,000 for Le Havre as a yearling at the 2007 Arqana August Sale from the Coulonces Consignment on behalf of a new client, Gerard Augustin Normand.

Seven years later Le Havre is France’s leading stallion and is based at Sylvain and Elizabeth Vidal’s Haras de la Cauvinière,

Avenir Certain, bred by Sylvain and Elizabeth Vidal, wins the Group 1 Prix de Diane

Anna and Etienne Drion’s Coulonces Consignment is the biggest consignor at the Arqana August Sale, Augustin Normand is firmly established amongst the leading owners and breeders in France, and Rouget himself has won several Classic races with Le Havre, Valyra, Elusive Wave, Stacelita and Avenir Certain.

Sylvain and Elizabeth Vidal set up what was essentially a boarding stud on the 35ha of her family’s farm, the Haras de la Cauvinière, in June 2006 and owned one mare themselves.

Today La Cauvinière is one of the busiest stallion farms in Europe, the Vidals are the breeders of the dual Classic winner Avenir Certain and the part-owners of Ectot, France’s champion two-year-old in 2013.

Avenir Certain and Ectot are both being aimed at the Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe and in the meantime the Vidals have a good chance of topping the August Sale when they offer, through Coulonces, a Rock Of Gibraltar halfsister to Avenir Certain.

Puggy, the dam of Avenir Certain, was bred by Darley and sold as a yearling to Willie Browne of Mocklershill Stables for €16,000.

The following year Browne sold on the daughter of Mark Of Esteem for an excellent profit getting 75,000gns for her as a two-year-old at the Doncaster Breeze-Up from the Swedish trainer Ray Krisla. Puggy made her debut at the end of August at Salisbury when she won a 7f maiden at odds of 66-1.

She showed that this was no fluke being beaten only a short head in a Listed race at Newmarket on her next start and then finishing third to the Classic winner Finsceal Beo in the Group 2 Rockfel Stakes. Puggy showed little as a three-year-old when she ran in some of the top races and was not sold at the 2007 Tattersalls December Sales.

A

s a four-year-old she was placed in Group and Listed races in Scandinavia by which time her owner had decided to base his racing and breeding operation in France. The horses in training went to Pia Brandt, and the mares to the Haras de la Cauvinière.

“By this stage Puggy’s owner was seriously ill,” explains Vidal, “and Pia Brandt who looked after his interests asked me if I could find a solution. So I ended up buying three of the mares myself, including Puggy.

“Her first foal was a colt by Vita Rosa called Adjudant Chief who was a useful, tough

58

www.internationalthoroughbred.net

performer who won in our colours and was placed at Longchamp and Saint-Cloud.

“Her second foal is Avenir Certain. Several people had told me that to promote Le Havre we had to make sure there were some good yearlings from his first crop at the yearling sales and so we decided to enter Avenir Certain in Arqana October.

“I always liked her and so was prepared to protect her to a good level, but when I saw that it was Jean Claude Rouget who had bid €45,000 I was happy to stop. It seemed a fair price, and if she was going to Jean-Claude, I knew she was in good hands.’

Eighteen months later Avenir Certain is the unbeaten winner of five races, including the Group 1 Poule d’Essai des Pouliches, the Prix de Diane and some €1,423,569 in prize-money and premiums for her owners Antonio Caro and Gerard Augustin Normand, with another €173,606 in premiums earned for her breeders.

Her Classic double puts her in a very small category of “super” fillies, which includes Golden Lilac, Zarkava, Divine Proportions, East Of The Moon and Madelia in the modern era.

“The plan now is to go for the Prix Vermeille and the Arc,” says Vidal. “She is a filly with fantastic acceleration and she is very easy to settle and place during a race.

Both Jean-Claude and Gregory [Benoist] are convinced she stayed well in the Diane and will be able to stay 1m4f.”

There was an irresistible economic argument for offering her half-sister for sale at the August Sale this summer.

“We have a big operation these days,” Vidal says, “and sometimes you have to think logically. She is a lovely filly, a far darker bay than her half-sister but in terms of conformation and build they are very similar.”

Gerard Augustin Normand was another of the original clients who kept mares at La Cauvinière and at the end of Le Havre’s racing career he approached Vidal to see if he would be interested in taking the son of Noverre.

“I said that I needed some time to think about it,” remembers Vidal, “but stallions have always been my thing and my dream.

I worked with horses such as A.P. Indy, Kingmambo and Peintre Célèbre during my time with Lane’s End and Coolmore.

“I wanted to be sure that my other clients were keen to support the horse with their mares before saying yes.”

The next five years have seen La Cauvinière grow from a small family boarding farm into a

Avenir Certain’s half-sister by Rock Of Gibraltar: will be sold as Lot 179 at the Arqana August Sale

“

Racehorses are just magical things. They give you emotions and experiences so intense that just don’t exist in the normal world major European stallion farm whose stallions cover more than 400 mares a year. There are now four farms, which cover a total of 220 hectares, 160 boxes and a full-time staff of 15.

The Vidals own together and in partnerships 30 mares and 20 horses in training.

As the partnership with AugustinNormand grew, Vidal began to take shares in some of the horses he purchased, including in August 2012 a Hurricane Run half-brother to the St James’s Palace Stakes winner Most Improved, who cost €75,000.

Named Ectot and put into training with Elie Lellouche he has been beaten only once in six starts to date, on his debut by Karakontie. He followed up his Group 1 victory at two by defeating Karakontie on his three-year-old reappearance in the Prix de Fontainebleau, the main trial for the Poule d’Essai des Poulains.

Ectot has been kept off the track since by a stress fracture, but he has been back in training for some weeks now and is due to run in August or September.

“Ectot is in fine form,” Vidal confirms.

‘The obvious plan is to go for the Prix Niel at Longchamp in September and then the Arc, although there is a possibility that he could run beforehand.”

The Vidals have a very real chance this autumn of winning the Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe either as a breeder or owner “Racehorses are just magical things,” he says. “They give you emotions and experiences so intense that just don’t exist in the normal world.

“When Avenir Certain won at Longchamp it was a difficult day. There was a long stewards’ enquiry and we had to wait.

“When she won at Chantilly it was an enormous satisfaction for everyone who had worked for Le Havre and believed in him.

“It is easy now to look at his performances and his pedigree and say that Le Havre was likely to be a top stallion, but, if there is an answer, I think it may be in his temperament and that of his offspring.

“Everyone who works with progeny by Le Havre tell me they are straightforward and quick to learn and do what they are asked to.

This is why so many of them win and over all types of track and distance.

“This is just the beginning. I think he is going to prove to be an exceptional stallion.”

Lasting Pease

60

jonathan pease

Jonathan Pease has trained the winners of over 20 Group 1 races, the latest being Karakontie in this year’s Poulains,writes Jocelyn de Moubray

J

onathan Pease is, and surely always has been, a most unusual racehorse trainer. English in a manner which is probably only possible for those who don’t live in Britain, he has been based in Chantilly for nearly 40 years.

He can appear to be diffident and withdrawn from the racing world in which he spent his working life, and yet the briefest of conversations reveals that he is as sharp an observer of the Chantilly scene as any of his rivals.

When he opens his post in the morning he is clearly delighted to receive a catalogue from an antiquarian book dealer in London, but neither rare books nor paintings and not even cricket can quite produce the same alert interest as Karakontie does when the dual Group 1 winner returns to the yard after his morning exercise.

None of this should really be a surprise to anyone as, whatever people in Chantilly or elsewhere make of Pease, it is impossible to get away from the record.

In nearly 30 years as a trainer Pease has never had a large stable, it has ranged from his current 40 to a maximum of 60 horses, and yet he has won more than 20 Group 1 races in France and the US, including the Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe and two Breeders’ Cup races. He has looked after champion twoyear-olds, Classic-winning three-year-olds, top race fillies and leading stayers, and his two best horses to date, Spinning World and Bago, won five individual Group or Grade 1 races each.

There have, of course, been good years and less successful ones, but from the time Swink won the Grand Prix de Paris over a 1m7f in 1986 carrying the colours of Nelson Bunker Hunt, up to Karakontie’s victory in this year’s Poule d’Essai des Poulains for the Niarchos

“

Karakontie didn’t do well over the winter although there was no particular reason why not; he has just taken time to come to himself Spinning World: the son of Nureyev was trained by Pease to win five Group and Grade 1 races

family, Pease has consistently won top races and prepared his best horses for sustained careers at the highest level.

If there is one thing he is very keen to add to his resume as a trainer it is a Group 1 win in Britain. He has had horses placed on several occasions, but neither Spinning World, Bago nor Maxios were able to give him that elusive success.

Karakontie looks very good, and in July, indeed probably better than he has all year.

“He is finally really thriving,” his trainer explains. “Karakontie didn’t do well over

the winter although there was no particular reason why not; he has just taken time to come to himself.”

The Niarchos family’s son of Bernstein, whose dam is a granddaughter of Miesque and by Sunday Silence, was rated the champion two-year-old in France last year after beating Noozhoh Canarias and Charm Spirit to take the Group 1 Prix Jean Luc Lagardère. After narrowly losing to Ectot on his seasonal reappearance, Karakontie won the Poule d’Essai des Poulains by just a neck but without ever looking likely to lose. It is a

characteristic of the colt whose three big wins to date have all been by less than a length.

He disappointed in the Prix du JockeyClub finishing eighth without ever looking competitive.

“I don’t know why he ran so badly,” says Pease, “and he ran too far off his best for the distance to be an explanation. I was pleased to see that some of the horses he beat in the Poule went on to run well at Ascot and I hope he will be up to winning another Group 1 against older horses.”

Karakontie is being aimed at the Prix Jacques le Marois in Deauville and then perhaps the Breeders’ Cup Mile, races in which his owner and trainer have enjoyed success over the years.

A

fter finishing university at Cambridge, Pease was always convinced that he wanted to train horses and the main question he posed himself at the time was where would be the best place to start. He worked for trainers in Britain, the US and Australia but, having decided that he wanted to be in Europe, he moved to France and went to work for Francois Mathet.

“At the time Britain seemed very depressed,” he remembers. “Harold Wilson had just been re-elected as Prime Minister, whereas, in France, Giscard d’Estaing was President and the political right had been in power for 18 years or so. In England racing appeared to be in a steep decline, whereas French racing in the 1970s was beyond any doubt the best in the world.

“What I didn’t foresee was the transformation brought about by the arrival of Margaret Thatcher in England and Francois Mitterrand in France, or, for that matter, the coming of the Maktoum family in British racing!”

When Pease started working for Mathet he spoke, he says, “only schoolboy French” but as Mathet didn’t speak English and they went racing together most days he soon made progress in this domain.

“Mathet was very disciplined and very organised,” remembers Pease. “He was an educated man from a military background, but he did have a temper.

He had 300 horses to train and so, like some leading trainers today, he cut out what he deemed to be not essential. These things included entertaining owners, going to sales and indeed nearly all social activities.”

The stars of the Mathet stable during Pease’s time include Exceller, the great champion owned by Nelson Bunker Hunt, the Texan, who was then about the most important owner in Europe.

“As Bunker Hunt and Mathet did not have a common language I got to know Bunker Hunt quite well, so when I set up as a trainer he sent me two horses, both by Lilloy. One was Swink, who won the Grand Paris de Paris, the other one was the filly Reloy, who won the Royaumont and finished second in the Prix Vermeille.”

Both horses went on to win top races in Jonathan Pease with long-time patron Maria Niarchos

the US for other trainers later in their career.

Pease’s own reputation was established and in 1987 he moved into Bunker Hunt’s Villa Primrose, about the most centrally located

jonathan pease

“

Too many of the horses with real potential are in too few hands, there is not quite the same competition as there was at one point stable in Chantilly and only a short walk from the railway station. Buying real estate close to transport hubs was part of Bunker Hunt’s business ethos and it was no mistake that his stud farm could be found next door to the airport in Lexington, while his racing stable, from which Maurice Zilber had sent out Empery and Youth to win the English and French Derby’s in the same week in 1976, was bang in the middle of town.

Bunker Hunt’s reign at the top of the racing business came to an end in 1987 with the dispersal of his racing and breeding stock at Keeneland (580 horses) following the collapse of the silver price, the commodity in which most of his fortune was tied up at the time.

Pease has continued to train for US owners, even if, aside from George Strawbridge who has had horses in the stable since the 1980s, there are few still active in France.

For Strawbridge, Pease has won top races in France, Ireland and the US, including the Breeders’ Cup Turf in 1994 with Tikkanen.

At about that same time Pease inherited two major clients following the death of François Boutin: Gerald Leigh, for whom he trained the champion two-year-old Act One, and the Niarchos family, who sent him 12 yearlings in 1995.

“The first group included both Spinning World and Titus Livius,” recalls Pease. “So we got off to a good start and they have been regular supporters ever since.”

Aside from Spinning World and Karakontie the top horses he has trained for the Niarchos family include the half-brothers Bago, who won the Arc de Triomphe but whom Peases describes as “a brilliant two-year-old and a good three-year-old,” and Maxios who took time to recover from a tough race as a two-year-old, but who won two Group 1s last year as a four-year-old.

‘The Niarchos family and their advisors have always been a bit like Bunker Hunt,” he says. “They have consistently thought outside the box – keeping mares in Japan or standing Maxios in Germany in partnership with Gestüt Fährhof are just two examples of this.”

The two-year-olds in the yard today include a Japanese-bred half-brother to Karakontie

64

www.internationalthoroughbred.net

Maxios: won two Group 1s for Pease in 2013

by Bago, and a Galileo half-sister to Bago and Maxios called Malicieuse who has run twice for a win at Chantilly and a second place in Deauville.

“I was disappointed when she was beaten,” he says of Malicieuse, “as there did not seem to be any excuse, but then perhaps the winner is just very good.”

W

hen walking into the wide yard of the Villa Primose it feels a little like stepping back in time, and little can have changed over the last 25 years.

There is a horsewalker in one corner, but it hardly has an impact on the spaciousness of the courtyard and takes up a small proportion of the shade offered by the mature trees.

It is not that the stable has not moved with the times. Pease cites the changes in veterinary technology as the most significant change during his time as a trainer.

“There was a time when the only way to find out if a horse was carrying an injury was to work faster, which meant, of course, that often there was no recovery. Today we can

get a scan and if need be send images to be examined by experts around the world as good as instantaneously.”

Perhaps the apparent calm is more the result of the organisation he spoke about when remembering Mathet. And after reflecting on the technical changes, he returns to his old boss.

“The actual training hasn’t changed that much. I still think back at crucial moments and wonder to myself what Mathet would have done in the same position.”

Looking back on his years in racing in France he believes the competition at the top is not as strong as it was when he started.

“Too many of the horses with real potential are in too few hands,” he explains. “There is not quite the same competition as there was at one point, and, of course, many of the best horses in France are no longer trained in Chantilly,” he says, before adding: “At a lower level however the reverse is true and with all of the horses coming from Germany, Italy and Spain it has never been more difficult to win ordinary races. There are few if any easy races these days.”

Like many of France’s racing professionals he is not particularly happy with many of the recent initiatives taken by France Galop and is concerned by the proposals for the new Longchamp. It is a project he describes as “the elephant in the room which we all maintain is not there. The cost of the studies already commissioned is so high that it is going to be very difficult to cancel, but then it cannot be postponed forever either, even if it is a strange thing to undertake during a major recession.”

For his own future he is less sure. In his early 60s the possibility of retirement is there, particularly as none of his own family have ever shared his passion for racing.

“I am a one-off in the family,” he laughs.

“Mary, my wife, has never really loved it, while two of my daughters live in Argentina and the other one is an award-winning architect in London.”

However, as long as Pease thinks there might be a Group 1 winner among his two-year-olds it will not be easy to convince him to walk away.

“The secret of training,” he says, “is not to mess it up.”

And then the other confidence he doesn’t share directly, but is still clearly on display is that winning Group 1 races is very exciting, and having already won 25 doesn’t diminish the lure of the next one.

jeff smith

Crossing the Channel Jeff Smith has enjoyed top-level success with his Littleton Stud-bred horses for many years, but this season his horses are winning good races on both sides of the English Channel

eff Smith has been a leading owner and breeder in Britain for decades. From the moment Chief Singer ran away with the Coventry Stakes on his debut in 1984 up to Arabian Queen’s brilliant win in the Group 2 Duchess of Cambridge Stakes at Newmarket this July, Smith has had a succession of high-class horses running for him, and, in nearly every case, for his Littleton Stud as well. This year has, however, marked a new departure as Smith is now a leading owner and breeder in France also.

Even before Norse Prize lined up for the Group 2 Prix Eugene Adam at Maisons- Laffitte in July, Smith was among the top 30 owners in France. The three-yearold colt was already a Listed winner and had

jeff smith been Group placed, Norse King had won a Group 3 and been placed in the Group 1 Prix Ganay, while Green Speed, a three-year-old Green Tune filly, and been stakes placed and finished fourth in the Prix Penelope.

These three high-class performers, and four other runners had, by mid-July, recorded three wins and 15 places earning €208,060 in prizemoney, €104,575 in owner’s premiums and a further €42,865 in breeder’s premiums, a total of nearly €360,000 (around £286,000).

In England he has had had seven wins and 12 places for a total of £137,000, which was enough to put him in a similar position in the owners’ table in Britain.

Smith’s first connection with French racing, and with his French trainer, came in 1988 when Myriam Bollack bought an

“

This year has, however, marked a new departure as Smith is now a leading owner and breeder in France as well Elegant Air filly from Littleton Stud at the sales in Newmarket for 5,000gns. She called her Air De Rien, which translates to approximately “looks like nothing”.

Her name and her looks proved to be deceptive as Air De Rien matured as a threeyear-old to win the Prix Penelope (G3), the

Prix Saint-Alary (G1) and finished third in the Prix de Diane (G1). When Smith decided to have the odd horse in training in France he sent them to Mme Bollack’s Chantilly stable, and he has continued to do so ever since.

“For some years we used to buy one or two yearlings and then hope for the best,” he explains. “We did okay and had a couple of Listed winners, but no more than that.

“A few years ago I decided that it made more sense to send three or four mares to be based in France and so take full advantage of the premiums which are available.

“We started a few years ago and now we have two potential top horses in Norse King and Norse Prize, and Myriam likes very much a two-year-old Motivator colt called Wave Power who should make his debut in August.”

In France, as in England, I breed to race, it is not easy, but it does have its moments!

Jeff Smith: breeding winners is more “exciting” for him than buying horses good enough to win

www.internationalthoroughbred.net

To make the story even better, Norse King and Norse Prize are both sons of Norse Dancer, who raced in Smith’s colours. “I bought Norse Dancer as a foal,” Smith remembers, “as we quite often buy two or three with the idea of supplementing the foal crop and sometimes trying to make a profit as well.

“He retired to stud at Littleton and moved to Yorton Farm Stud this year. He has never had the mares he deserves because he didn’t win a Group 1, but he was second in three and was beaten less than a length by Sulamani and then Azamour in the Juddmonte International and Irish Champion as a fouryear-old.”

Norse King comes from Norse Dancer’s second crop, and the first included the Listed winning Group-placed filly Dorcas Lane.The son of Halling has already had excellent results for a sire who has never covered more than 33 mares in a season and averaged around 20 a year for his first six seasons at stud.

“Norse King is huge, even bigger than Chief Singer!” he laughs. “He is nearly 18 hands and when he was a two-year-old Myriam sent him back to the farm as he just wasn’t able to use his limbs correctly. Since he went back to the stable she has brought him along gently, and to great effect.”

Norse King is the first foal of Angel Wing, an unraced Barathea mare who is a daughter of Smith’s Nunthorpe Stakes winner Lochangel.

Norse King finally made his debut as a three-year-old but, although he showed signs of ability, he didn’t win in seven starts. He broke his maiden in July last year, and then ended his season with four consecutive wins in a Listed race, a Group 2 and a Group 3.

An impressive winner of a Group 3 at Saint-Cloud on his seasonal debut, he has been placed three times since, including when third in the Group 1 Prix Ganay to Cirrus Des Aigles and Treve, and when again third in the Grand Prix de Chantilly giving weight to the subsequent Group 1 winner Spiritjim.

“He is having a break at the moment,

jeff smith although he is in fine form and still in training. He doesn’t enjoy very hot weather and, although he is not ground dependent, he is better on soft ground so we decided to wait for the second part of the French season. We know he is a genuine Group 1 horse,” adds Smith.

Norse Prize, the high-class three-year-old son of Norse Dancer, also comes from an old Littleton family as his grand dam Spot Prize finished fourth in the Oaks in Smith’s colours in 1994.

“The stable thinks that he could be very good indeed over 1m2f,” Smith explains. “He won his Listed race on good ground and then disappointed, although he wasn’t beaten far, in a Group 2 on very soft ground. On his last start he was not beaten far again when third in a Group 3 and he just didn’t quite stay the 1m4f.”

“

Dubawi and Barshiba is a powerful combination and I am thrilled that she is back in foal to him on an early service Smith is understandably enthusiastic about his French breeding operation and while he still has 24 mares at home at Littleton Stud, near Winchester, he keeps four with Pierre Lamy at the Haras de Pierrepont in Normandy.

“In France, as in England, I breed to race,” he says, “it is not easy, but it does have its moments!”

This year there have already been a fair number of these moments and there is a good chance there will be more to come in France.

Barshiba: bred by Littleton, the dual Group 2 winner is blind in one eye. Arabian Queen was her first foal, and she had a filly by Fastnet Rock last year

In England, Smith has two very promising two-year-olds racing in his colours, Heartbreak Hero and Arabian Queen.

“We bought Heartbreak Hero as a foal with a view to making money at the yearling sales, but it didn’t work out and, of course, I am glad to have him now and he won well at Windsor in July.”

Arabian Queen is the first foal by Dubawi out of one of Smith’s best race mares, the Barathea mare Barshiba.

“People says that Arabian Queen is bred to stay as her dam won the Lancashire Oaks twice, which is true, but they forget that Barshiba was also Group 2 placed over a mile and had plenty of speed.

“Dubawi and Barshiba is a powerful combination and I am thrilled that she is back in foal to him on an early service, that’s something to look forward to.

“We knew that High Celebrity was highly regarded ahead of the Duchess of Cambridge, but, seriously, we were expecting to win.

“Arabian Queen had an impossible draw in the Queen Mary at Royal Ascot and her jockey got off and said she was very special; she looks it in her morning work as well.

“Barshiba has only one eye which made a big difference as although she could hear her rivals she couldn’t see them coming if they were on the wrong side. The others will have to watch out as Arabian Queen has two!”

Smith admits that his racing and breeding activities take up a lot of his time, but he has more to spare these days as he is a former executive chairman of Aim Aviation, a company which designs and fits the interiors of planes.

“David Bowe does a wonderful job at Littleton and is also my racing manager,” he says, “but I would like to have more time to really get to follow the form and know where my horses are compared with those they are running against.”

So is winning with Arabian Queen or Norse King as exciting as it was in the days of Chief Singer ?’

“Oh yes,” says Smith without hesitation.

“And I bought Chief Singer and when you breed them it makes winning even more exciting.”

leading french stallions

Breaking new ground Kendargent, Le Havre and Siyouni are storming the French stallion ranks, writes Jocelyn de Moubray

F

or the first time in more than 30 years France’s stallion tables are being dominated by domestic-based sires.

At the time of writing the leading sire in France is the Haras de la Cauvinière’s Le Havre. The son of Noverre is also the leading sire of three-year-olds, by number of winners, number of wins and by prize-money.

The Haras de Bonneval’s first-season sire Siyouni is the leading sire of two-year-olds by prize-money, number of winners and wins, ahead of the Haras de Colleville’s extraordinary Kendargent, who is in second place on the overall stallion table.

It is a long time since two of the best young stallions in Europe were based in France, together with one of the leading first-season sires.

All three have stood in France from the beginning of their stud careers, and as they have been partially syndicated, will more than likely remain in France.

These three stallions are going to transform

72

www.internationalthoroughbred.net

Le Havre: the son of Noverre, just with second season runners, is leading the French sires’ list

the future of breeding in France, and will become a significant asset for French sales, even if for the time being their impact is going to be only limited.

Le Havre and Siyouni have only three yearlings in the main Arqana August catalogue, while Kendargent has 11, six of whom will be offered by the Haras de Colleville itself.

A quick look at the catalogue underlines how different the situation was in 2012 when this group of yearlings was conceived. Only 34 or nine per cent of those catalogued are by French-based sires – it is easy to imagine that

by 2016 these three sires alone could have 60 representatives in the sale between them.

Run of form for Kendargent continues

Kendargent has only a total of 29 two-yearolds and yet they already include three of the best two-year-olds in France – the dual winners Goken and Kenfreeze, and the filly Kenouska, who only enhanced her reputation when finishing second to the 5,000,000gns yearling Al Naamah to whom she was giving 8lb at Chantilly at the end of June.

The future looks very bright indeed for the son of Kendor as he has 94 yearlings this year

leading french stallions and covered around 180 mares in both 2013 and 2014. This year he stood at a €15,000 and his mares included 55 from Britain, Germany or Italy.

Kendargent’s 2014 yearlings are from his fifth crop, but, as has been well documented, Guy Pariente’s stallion retired to stud standing at only €1,000 with little other than his owner’s enthusiasm going for him.

His first four crops totalled only 127 foals, and yet to everyone other than his owner’s surprise Kendargent’s progeny have never stopped winning and competing in top races from the moment they first appeared on the track in 2011.

To date he has had nine black-type

“

It is a long time since two of the best young stallions in Europe were based in France, together with one of the leading first-season sires

winners, including the Group 1 performers Kendam, Restiadargent and Kenhope.

His small third crop includes the consistent Group performer Kenzadargent and his fourth has already three well-above average two-year-old winners before the end of June.

Most of his progeny are sprinter/milers, many are precocious and they are also on the whole tough characters who maintain their form over a long period. Nearly all of his good horses have so far been bred by the Haras de Colleville, but few other breeders sent him mares during his first four seasons.

Colleville is offering six by the sire at the August Sale.

leading french stallions “Arqana selected the ones they thought would be best suited to the sale,” explains Guillaume Vitse, manager of the Haras de Colleville. “As a rule we keep the first foals of a mare and then those who are too small or crooked to go to a sale. We have always felt that it is important for Kendargent that some of his best yearlings go to the sales.

“We have 24 yearlings by him this year and so whatever happens we shall have plenty to run for the farm in the future.”

The yearlings on offer include a brother to the Coronation Stakes runner-up Kenhope, as well as a sister to Goken.

Pariente has frequently stated that his star stallion would not be sold – at any price, but

there is no need as for himself and the other shareholders Kendargent has turned into a very profitable investment. The numbers of mares he covered in 2014 at his highest fee to date suggests it has yet to reach its peak.

The horse was partially syndicated in December 2011 and in an 80-share syndicate, Pariente retained 61 shares, selling the other 19 at €20,000 apiece. Kendargent attracts mares from all over Europe and has the support of most of the leading breeders in France.

If he maintains a similar ratio of good horses his profile is going to be a lot higher from 2015 when he will have three times as many horses running for him.

Avenir Certain puts Le Havre’s name in lights

The Haras de la Cauvinière’s Le Havre has attracted consistent support since retiring to stud in 2010 and each of his first three crops has between 90 and 100 foals.

A high proportion of these mares belonged to Le Havre’s owner Gerard Augustin Normand and standing at €5,000 the son of Noverre did not attract the best outside mares.

As a Group 1 winner, as well as a winner of four of his six career starts from 7f to 1m2f, he had a lot more going for him than Kendargent, but Le Havre was not a fashionable stallion and there were plenty who believed that his owner’s support would

Siyouni: by Pivotal, the Aga Khan Studs’ young stallion has made a tremendous start

prove to just an expensive folly.

Events have, of course, vindicated those who believed in the stallion and when Augustin Normand decided to syndicate his stallion after the brilliant victory of Le Havre’s daughter Avenir Certain in the Poule d’Essai des Pouliches he was able to sell 24 of the 50 shares for €100,000.

The new shareholders include the leading breeders in France – Haras des Capucines, Haras d’Etreham, Haras du Saint Pair, Haras des Monceaux, Haras de la Louviere, Haras de Bourgeauville, the Wertheimer and Wildenstein families, the Aga Khan, Haras de la Perelle and the Niarchos family. Al Shahania, Al Shaqab, Coolmore, Cheveley Park Stud, Newsells Park Stud, Mount Coote Stud and Andrew Black also invested, while a total of 30 different studs have taken a whole or half share.

If he had waited until Avenir Certain completed her Classic double with an even more impressive win in the Prix de Diane, he probably would have been able to sell the shares at a higher price.

Avenir Certain is the leading European filly of her generation and few stallions standing at €5,000 can produce a European champion.

The other exceptional feature of Le Havre’s success is the number of good horses he has produced – up to the end of June he had had 18 three-year-old winners of 28 races in France alone, and at more or less all distances from 7f to 1m4f, on the All-Weather and on Turf, on fast and soft ground.

He has produced three black-type winners, three black-type performers and several others likely to compete at stakes level.

Great start by Siyouni

Avenir Certain is the leading European filly of her generation and few stallions standing at €5,000 can produce a European champion Siyouni is a promising first-season sire rather than a proven one such as Kendargent or Le Havre, but the son of Pivotal made an excellent start with seven winners of eight races before the end of June, including the stakes winner Mocklershill and two very promising fillies – the Aga Khan’s own Ervedya and See Your Dream.

Siyouni himself was a top two-year-old who won four of his six starts as a juvenile from his debut in May through to his Group 1 win in the Prix Jean Luc Lagardère.

At three he was Group 1 placed, but failed to win and was syndicated to stand at Bonneval on his retirement. The Aga Khan retaining a controlling interest in the horse, but sold 24 shares at €28,000 each.

At €7,000 for a nomination, Siyouni has been well supported and he has around 70 foals in his first two crops. His career started to build momentum as soon as his first foals appeared at the sales.

His first foals sold well, his yearlings better and at the Arqana Breeze-Up in May, Qatar Bloodstock gave €300,000 for a

juvenile colt, who has been called Svoul and is in training in Chantilly with Francis Graffard.

“This year Siyouni has been very popular,” confirms George Rimaud, manager of Bonneval. “He has covered 134 mares and people were still asking me for nominations at the end of June.

“He is running at above 80 per cent fertility, although we are still waiting for some mares to be tested, his fertility is no problem at all as long as he is managed carefully.”

Rimaud is not getting carried away quite yet. “The horse has made a good start,” he says, “and seems to be passing on the speed and precocity we hoped he would, but these promising winners need to go on and compete successfully in Group races.”

The syndicate has already been a success and with a rise in his fee looking likely for 2015, shareholders in Siyouni will be feeling very satisfied.

“The shareholders meetings take place in an excellent atmosphere,” Rimaud adds, “and we are considering setting up a Siyouni Racing Club to use the bonus fund to invest in Siyouni yearlings to race together.”

All three of the new generation of top French sires would have struggled to attract support elsewhere. Kendargent would have not covered a mare away from his owner’s stud, while Le Havre is by Noverre, seen as a disappointing sire and from the Blushing Groom sire line which many experts considered to be heading for extinction. He is out of a mare by Surako, an obscure German sire by Konigsstuhl.

Siyouni had his precocity and his sire Pivotal going for him, but he was disappointing as a three-year-old and the best two-year-old races in France do not carry the same prestige as those in England. Indeed the Aga Khan and his team appeared to be surprised by the demand for shares in the horse.

Few aspects of racing and breeding are more difficult to predict than which sires are going to be successful.

The only certainties are that those sires who don’t get consistent support through their first three seasons have little chance of making a lasting mark.

But once a stallion starts to succeed, and achieve results way above the ordinary over more than a season, then, far more often than not, they will continue to do so for the remainder of their career.

Kendargent and Le Havre are well on their way and Siyouni has passed the first test with flying colours.

Nutritional help for horses with neurological problems

V

by Kathleen Crandell and Bryan Waldridge ECTOR-BORNE diseases are caused by bacteria, viruses or protozoa that are transmitted by ticks, mosquitoes and other insects.

Disease agents typically cycle between vectors and animals. When vectors bite people, rather than the typical animal hosts, diseases may spread to humans.

Two common vector-borne diseases diagnosed in people are Lyme disease and West Nile Virus (WNV). Both of these diseases can also compromise the health of horses.

Lyme disease is caused by the bacterium Borrelia burgdorferi and is spread by certain species of ticks. The disease is most commonly diagnosed in the north-eastern US, as well as in Minnesota and Wisconsin.

Clinical signs of Lyme disease in horses can be extremely vague and include lameness in multiple legs, enlarged joints, fever and behavioral changes. A definitive diagnosis of Lyme disease can be difficult to obtain and involves testing for high antibody levels against B. burgdorferi. Laboratories that offer specialised tests for antibodies against Lyme disease are more reliable and can differentiate exposure to B. burgdorferi from active infection.

There currently is no approved equine vaccine against Lyme disease. Control of Lyme disease in horses primarily involves tick avoidance, insect repellents and checking horses for attached ticks. Usually, Lyme disease is treated with tetracycline antibiotics and supportive care, although nutritional support can assist in the recuperative effort.

Omega-3 fatty acids

Nutritional support aims to promote immune

A horse suffering from West Nile Virus: the neurological nature of the disease affects balance and co-ordination

response, reduce inflammation and offset possible adverse gastrointestinal effects from antibiotics.

The benefits of omega-3 fatty acids have been detailed extensively. Boosting immunity is just one advantage of supplementing with omega-3 fatty acids, so this seems like a natural choice for an immune-suppressed horse.

Another advantage is a reduction in inflammatory responses. In fact, omega-3 fatty acids reduce arthritic pain and can potentially decrease the dose of anti-inflammatories used for joint pain.

Choose omega-3 products that have been derived from fish oil as these contain direct sources of eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid, two long-chain omega-3 fatty acids. Marine-derived products

such as fish oil should be deodorised and flavoured. Products that have been deodorised and flavoured are much more palatable to horses. Check with the manufacturer to be sure that the products have undergone these processes.

Lyme disease also has been recognized as a possible cause of neurologic dysfunction in horses, such as muscle loss, unsteady gait and facial nerve paralysis.

Vitamin E supplement

Vitamin E is recommended for equine neurologic diseases for its immune-boosting and anti-inflammatory properties. Not all vitamin E supplements are the same, so look for a natural vitamin E product (d-alphatocopherol, not dl-alpha-tocopherol).

In a trial conducted at Kentucky Equine

equine nutrition

Research, bioavailability was greatest with a natural vitamin E product that used a process known as nano-dispersion to deliver the nutrient throughout the body. Natural watersoluble forms of vitamin E have been shown to significantly increase the alpha-tocopherol concentration in the cerebrospinal fluid.

Selenium is often discussed hand-in-hand with vitamin E because it, too, is essential for proper immune function.

Arthritis, lameness and swollen joints can be signs of Lyme disease. To bolster joint health, supplements that supply a synergistic blend of glucosamine hydrochloride and chondroitin sulfate provide broad-spectrum support.

Hyaluronic acid supplements can also be helpful for improving lubrication of the joint, decreasing joint inflammation and increasing the comfort of the horse.

Other useful nutrients or additives include vitamin C, alpha-lipoic acid, magnesium and, possibly, the B vitamins.

Because Lyme disease is often treated, in part, with antibiotics, it is very important to keep horses eating and to avoid gastrointestinal problems such as diarrhea.

Yeasts and probiotics help keep the hindgut in optimal working order.

Horses treated with any antibiotic should be observed for inappetence or loose manure – if either of these occur, discontinue use of the antibiotics and call a veterinarian.

Forage should be available at all times, and, when possible, horses on antibiotics should be allowed to graze at pasture or in paddocks.

West Nile Virus

WNV is spread by mosquitoes. Cases of mosquito-borne diseases such as WNV, eastern equine encephalomyelitis (EEE) and western equine encephalomyelitis tend to occur more in the late summer and early autumn. The map above shows in which countries the problem is currently endemic and which are clear of the problem.

The American Association of Equine Practitioners recommends vaccination against WNV and EEE as part of a core vaccination program.

Vaccination is very effective for reducing the incidence of the virus.

Horses are much more likely to survive

WNV than EEE with early recognition and treatment; about 70 per cent of horses affected with WNV survive with appropriate therapy.

Care

The main goals when feeding horses with neurologic diseases are to supplement vitamin E and ensure that the horses continue eating a good-quality, balanced diet.

Many horses with neurologic disease will have impaired balance and gait abnormalities that prevent them from being turned out.

If it’s safe for the horse and handlers, some hand grazing allows access to fresh grass and serves as physical therapy for the horse.

Horses with neurologic diseases often have trouble balancing, especially when they lower their heads. Feeding hay in haynets or placing feed on top of a straw bale makes it easier for to eat. Neurologic horses are sometimes reluctant to move around their stalls, so it is important to keep hay, feed and water near each other and the horse if the horse has difficulty moving around.

Horses with severe neurologic deficits may require slings to stand. Horses in slings should be offered feed and water when they are comfortably standing or when they are lying on their chests.

Further neurological diseases

Some neurologic diseases such as botulism

›0.05 to 0.1

›0.1 to 1

can affect the horse’s ability to grasp and swallow feed. In these cases, the horse may need to be fed soft mashes or be fed by nasogastric tube. In some instances, total parenteral nutrition — which is supplying an intravenous mixture of amino acids, glucose, lipids, vitamins and minerals — is necessary during convalescence.

Several equine neurologic diseases have been shown to be caused by vitamin E deficiency or to improve with vitamin E supplementation. Many veterinarians prescribe vitamin E supplementation for the treatment of equine neurologic diseases because of its neuroprotective effects.

The usually recommended dose of nanodispersed natural vitamin E for horses with neurologic disease is 5,000-10,000 international units by mouth every 24 hours.

This is approximately 10-20 times the dietary requirement for a 1,100 lb. (500 kg) horse.

Each horse should be treated as an individual — certainly from a nutritional point of view but also from a medical standpoint. A strong working relationship with a veterinarian and a nutritionist will help horse owners determine what is best for an individual horse.

anetime Out could have been described as nothing but a disappointment as a young horse.

The Danetime filly, bred by Seamus McMullan, was sent to the Tattersalls September Sale by Rathasker Stud in 2004 and went through the ring not sold for the lowly sum of €3,000.

Despite being a half-sister to the Machiavellian colt Easaar, rated 103 at his best, the holder of black-type courtesy of a second in the Dubai Duty Free (G2) and homebred by Shadwell, as well as being a half-sister to six winners from seven runners, no one was interested in the May-born bay filly by Danetime.

The sire is recognised now as a positive influence on pedigrees, but in 2004 the bloodstock community was slow to appreciated his genetic ability – though he had already produced Baltic King and The Kiddy Kid, he was only able to achieve a yearling average of 11,000gns in 2004 and a top price of 60,000gns.

His daughter held a sales entry just three months later with the same sales company, but failed to make her date. She was successfully sold the following February at Goffs to owner Paul Holden for €5,000.

Unfortunately, Holden was obviously less than impressed with his new purchase as, a year and a half later, the filly was returned to Goffs as an unraced three-year-old – she had still even to gain a name – and she was once again led out unsold at €2,000, offered then by Holden in association with Kiltown Studs.

God does love a trier and a year later she reappeared at the same sale, still not thought worthy enough to be given a name, but carrying to Majestic Missile on an April cover.

She was again led out unsold at €5,000.

Finally, in February 2008, with the addition of the name Danetime Out and this time offered by Annshoon and Kiltown Studs, she found a new home, bought by Jon Horlet for €7,000.

Danetime Out must hold the record for the most frequent and yet most unsuccessful appearances in the sales ring.

As a broodmare, initially, the less-thanprofitable sales trend continued with that first Majestic Missile foal taking three goes in the ring before selling for a profit. Offered

by Trickledown at the Tattersalls December Sales, he fetched the princely sum of 800gns bought

by BEJ Partnership. When sent

September Sales (a place never previously successful for his dam) he failed to sell at €1,400. He was sent to the Goresbridge May Breeze-Up from Ballinhulla Stables where things began to take an upward turn – Gill Richardson, who has frequently found rewards at that sale, bought him for €15,000.

Sent into training with Mick Channon for owner Jaber Abdullah, he won first tine out in July on firm ground at Bath and then managed a second at Leicester over 7f in September.

Put away for his three-year-old year, he was then unplaced in three handicaps at Sandown, Newmaket and Salisbury, before he grabbed two wins in succession at Carlisle taking his mark to 88. He was then sold for the astonishing (in light of his usual family sale results) sum of 60,000gns to SackvilleDonald at the Tattersalls Horses in Training Sale in 2011.

The Captain Marvelous colt Captain Cruz appeared for Danetime Out in 2010 and was bought by trainer Ron Harris at Goresbridge breeze-up in 2012 – the breeder BEC bloodstock obviously deciding this sale was a positive strategy – for €10,000.

It was unfortunately a sum badly spent by Haris – despite reportedly pleasing at home in his work ahead of racing, the colt ran three Estidhkaar: a future champion?

mare of the month times that October for a fourth, third and a last-time-out seventh of seven. He has not run again.

In March 2011, Danetime Out’s tryst with Ballyhane stallion Arakan produced a bay colt. Sent to the DBS Premier Sale in 2012, he caught the eye of Peter and Ross Doyle, who bought him from Redpender Stud for £36,000 on behalf of Richard Hannon, the colt eventually ending up in the ownership of Middleham Park Racing and James Pak.

T

OORMORE won his first four starts, including the Vintage Stakes (G3), the National Stakes (G3), and became nothing less than the champion two-year-old of 2013. An amazing turn around of form for the family and Danetime Out. He followed up his two-year-old form in this year’s Craven Stakes (G3) a race in which he beat The Grey Gatsby.

Toormore’s run in this year’s competitive 2,000 Guineas did not reap rewards – he finished seventh of the 14-strong field, one place ahead of Kingston Hill and two ahead of The Grey Gatsby. Jockey Richard Hughes reported after the race that he felt a little flat.

In the St James’s Palace he could only beat

“

He puts his head down and I love his attitude.

I’d say he’s definitely up to Group 1 class, which is handy, because he’s got no choice now he’s won his Group 2! one home after taking too strong a hold in running under Ryan Moore.

It appears that a drop in class and trip is on the agenda as he holds entries in the 7f Lennox Stakes (G2) – the result of which will be known by the time you read this article.

The young mare Danetime Out, now dam of a champion juvenile from just three foals, has very good chances she could add another champion to her CV before the year is out.

Her 2012 foal by Dark Angel – another colt – proved to be rather more attractive at

The champion juvenile of 2013, Toormore took dam Danetime Out’s career to a new level.

last year’s yearling sales due to Toormore’s racecourse exploits, and the Doyle’s, this time with Sheikh Hamdan’s backing, went to 200,000gns for the bay colt born in March 2011. It was the third top price at the sale, and at that point the most expensive yearling by the sire to sell at auction (three sold for higher prices at the later Goffs Orby and Tattersalls October sales).

Named Estidhkaar, he appeared in May, but did not manage a career debut victory as he finished second to Portamento at Goodwood in May on soft ground. It was a defeat which led Richard Hannon Jnr to proclaim that he was “shocked” that the horse was beaten.

Estidhkaar righted that wrong next time at Newbury when he justified favouritism by a half-length over 6f.

His run in the Superlative Stakes through July week yielded the black-type that his purchase price and win at Newbury had predicted – in an impressive fashion he took the Group 2 by 4l from Aktabantay.

Again Hannon expressed surprise postrace to the Racing Post but was enthusing: “I didn’t expect him to win like that because he’s not an impressive horse. He puts his head down and I love his attitude. I’d say he’s definitely up to Group 1 class, which is handy, because he’s got no choice now he’s won his Group 2!”

At present Estidhkaar’s entries do not include a Group 1 – non-pattern sales races and the Group 2 Gimcrack are on the agenda, but it will be fairly certain that, as the summer’s entreies close, this autumn’s top level juvenile events will be added to his dance card.

Estidhkaar was bought by Shadwell through the Doyles, but this is a family known well to Sheikh Hamdan’s team, the involvement just having skipped a generation, while Toormore is not the first champion in the pedigree.

The firm owned Danetime Out’s halfbrother Esaar, but the influence stretches back to ownership of Estidhkaar’s grand-dam Peace Girl.

She was also a champion two-year-old, this time in Ireland in 1987, and was winner of The Curragh Stakes (G3).

She failed to produce any winners of note herself, but is grand-dam of the Group 3 winner Hawridge Prince, the Listed winner Hero’s Journey, the British Listed-placed Psychiatrist, as well as two Listed performers abroad.
