the first word

World revolution was not on the agenda...

F

...at the Asian Racing Conference but, as Paul Haigh reports, it was proposed that Group races in countries failing to standardise medication will lose Pattern status contained a yours-to-keep Galaxy Tab carrying all the conference agenda and biographies of invited speakers produced a little frisson of excitement. So someone doing the organising thought that even mere members of the media, there in strictly observational capacity, were important enough to be pampered too.

or one who’d never attended any sort of conference since a National Union of Students gabfest in the early 1970s, May’s 35th Asian Racing Conference, hosted with great panache by the Hong Kong Jockey Club, came as something of a revelation.

Everyone wore suits for one thing, a form of apparel that might not have actually got you lynched, but then definitely put up against the wall to have things thrown at you at the NUS in whatever year it was.

Nobody got goody bags at the NUS. At the ARC the bags themselves were goodies enough. The discovery that they

All sorts at Royal Ascot

s has now become traditional, Royal Ascot began with the sublime and concluded with the ridiculous.

Maybe that’s a bit flattering to the Queen Anne which will always be remembered as one of the pinnacles of Frankel’s career and as a result will always suffer from His absence. Toronado is not to be mentioned in the same breath as the great one. But at least he was a respectable substitute.

Maybe it’s a bit too harsh on the Queen Alexandra that ends the fun. Actually the fun ends the moment you realise there’s nothing left to see except the Queen Alexandra, a 2m5f race for hurdlers that cannot boast a single hurdle. But then again maybe it’s not. So what if Brown Jack won it six times on the trot when we were still on the gold standard and, according to Sellar and Yeatman, Britain was still a “top nation”?

No doubt BJ was a lovely old boy who gave everybody who saw him great pleasure. But he’s gone now and the race he used to win is an irrelevance. Worse, it’s a farce. Twenty years ago there was a move to get rid of it – and suddenly a very small bunch of atavistic backwoodsmen emerged from their mountain fastnesses to demand its retention. To everyone else’s amazement they

It was also a discreet reminder that the HKJC is the richest racing administration in the world and getting richer all the time thanks to a betting turnover that quite often exceeds HK$1.3 billion ($167 million, £100 million). No,that’s not per annum. That’s per raceday, of which there are just 83 each year.

We were also reminded at

were successful, and now the best race meeting in the world begins on a note of near perfection and ends with something that has very little to do with betting or spectacle and nothing whatsoever to do with the improvement of the breed.

Maybe the purpose of the nonsense is to stagger the rush for the car parks. Some people will stick around for anything you can punt on, particularly when they’re already four days down.

But sandwiched between Toronado and torment we saw plenty to drool over. Sole Power’s King’s Stand for example: beautiful for those who’ve learnt to love the horse. A bit depressing for those of us who’d formed the opinion he wouldn’t be the same without Johnny Murtagh.

Wednesday’s highlight was The Fugue, running at her right trip for once and on the ground she loves. Treve, the Arc winner was doing the opposite, running at 1m2f when she needs 1m4f and on course record-making ground when she wants the soft. We were told afterwards that Treve had muscle strain. Well, maybe she did, but it’s also pretty obvious she’s not as good on fast ground as she is on soft, and that she hasn’t developed as much as the weight rise from three to four requires.

In the St. James’s Palace Kingman was just astounding – the best miler since we know who.

the first word

“ regular intervals that the HKJC is by some way Hong Kong’s largest tax payer and by a long way its greatest charitable donor. All of the more than 800 delegates were eminent figures in their individual jurisdictions, but with lavish hospitality and opening and closing ceremonies of the sort they do reasonably well at the Oscars, someone in a position

of authority clearly also thought that it would do no harm to remind all present just where the money bags lie.

All conferences, I believe, have this in common: that lots of people get together to let off

With respect to old Cirrus Des Aigles who popped the bubble of her supposed invincibility, she’s beginning to look like yet another advertisement for a revision of the weight for age scale that gives three-year-old fillies an unfair advantage in the world’s most prestigious race.

Ascot requires a highlight a day and in fact it spoils itself and us with four or five. But let’s turn our attention now to the supposed main attraction on Thursday. The Gold Cup used to be the feature of the meeting and one of the three or four greatest events of the season. That was then. This is now.

Now everyone knows it’s just a proving ground for potential jump sires.

Nearly everyone would have been thrilled if Estimate had repeated her 2013 triumph for The Queen.

This has nothing to do with respect for the race or for whether you’re a monarchist or a republican It has everything to do with affection for a splendid old lady whose support for the sport gives British racing an image that puts it on a different plane from racing anywhere else.

Why do you think this is the one meeting of the year to which all the people who think it’s important to see and be seen turn up to gawk at each other and Gok Wan? What gives Ascot its class? To borrow

steam or express themselves, often at unnecessary length, in the hope of establishing for themselves a reputation for gravitas or for finding favour with their superiors for their obvious diligence. Unlike the NUS conference none of the delegates paired off during the more tedious presentations to sneak out of the Convention Centre and

and adapt a phrase from US politics: It’s the Queen, stupid.

Telescope won the Hardwicke like a good horse, and that’s what he is, maybe even a very good one.

But let’s not go thinking he’s an Arc winner.

That was a Group 2, remarkable as much for Ryan Moore’s impeccable riding as for any brilliance from the horse. Maybe Telescope will improve enough to become the superstar he was once supposed to be.

He’ll need to.

It was great to see Rizeena win the Coronation Stakes. Clive Brittain has been The Grand Old Man of Newmarket almost as long as even I can remember. His popularity simply grows.

So to Saturday and the Diamond Jubilee in which Slade Power completed a double for the Irish and for Edward Lynam. Unfortunately both he and his stablemate Sole Power are owned by a family of bookmakers. So while I can admire both horses and their trainer I can’t rejoice at twin triumphs for representatives of the group of people who’ve been given the right to enrich themselves by bleeding dry British racing. And then the Queen Alexandra.

WTF?!!!? as they say on the social media. At least Moore won it to give the Bonkers Stakes some respectability. If there’s another jockey in the world as good it can only be Zac Purton or Joao Moreira.

find rooms in which to discuss Proust or Proudhon, or whatever else took their fancy. And quite unlike the NUS, nobody got up on the platform to declare the imminence of world revolution.

Or did they?

Many of the debates were night time food drinks laced with Mogadon. No point in naming them just out of cruelty.

the first word The speakers were only doing their jobs, only obeying orders by following party lines as best they could. Some had hugely unpromising subjects to try and make interesting. An exception was the savagely unexciting session on the freer movement of horses between jurisdictions for competition – savagely unexciting unless you happen to be a South African, but what can be done in the face of African Horse Sickness and other serious, but less intractable, diseases elsewhere?

More intriguing was the subject of China, racing’s putative Klondyke. Strange to think how political activity far removed from the sport sometimes determines what happens within it.

If the wife of one-time Chinese rising star Bo Xi Lai had not a few years ago become so displeased with a British businessman she decided to have him poisoned, the Great Chinese Racing Gold Rush might already have begun.

Bo’s fall left the way clear for Xi Jing Ping, and the likelihood at the moment of Xi leading his country towards the necessary legalisation of betting is about the same as that of America’s Tea Party deciding to campaign for higher taxes on the rich.

As soon as we saw the name of a relatively minor official from Beijing on the list of speakers on the China debate (or rather information update) we knew there were going to be no startling announcements.

She spoke gamely, and quite pleasantly, for some not quite interminable time during which the most noteworthy activity in the Great Hall was the gentle removal, one by one, of translation headsets.

Afterwards HKJC CEO Winfried Engelbrecht-Bresges, once a footballer in Germany and still a formidable midfield general and positioning expert, placed his own gloss on the

10

situation as he saw it.

W. E-B recently told Thoroughbred Racing Commentary that “Hannibal was closer to Rome” than the eager world is to achieving a viable racing model in China. At the ARC he was all calculating suaveness: “It’s not what we want, or what some people want, that matters,” he said. “It’s what China wants. A sustainable racing model can only be achieved by organisations which do not have a specific racing interest.”

T

hat last sentence may not have gone down well in the west of Ireland, or even in Dubai. But it was a clever reminder to Beijing that the not-for-profit HKJC remains best positioned to advance Chinese racing when – or, much more appropriately, if – a change of heart ever comes.

There was an intriguing analysis entitled “Racing’s Lifeblood” on the relative return to racing, and the consequent levels of prize-money, from betting turnover. Is anyone in Britain still unaware of the extent to which its racing and its progress is deprived by the nation’s addiction to an elsewhere illegal bookmaking industry?

There was one flash of unquestionable brilliance from HKJC Head of Trading Patrick Jay on the extent of illegal bookmaking worldwide.

It would be surprising if Jay were not a dazzling communicator as he is the son of Peter and Margaret Jay, and the grandson of a British Prime Minister (Jim Callaghan) who would probably be in politics himself if he wasn’t hamstrung by a well-developed sense of humour.

The core message of his speech however wasn’t funny at all and he certainly wasn’t trying to be.

Betting, and the corruption of sports, has now superseded such

www.internationalthoroughbred.net

familiar stalwarts as drugs and prostitution as the business of choice for mafias around the world.

The only consolation for racing is that football and cricket, many of whose players, particularly in Africa are now being groomed from a very early age, are their preferred sports, simply because they are easier to arrange.

A day or two earlier came an almost equally distressing disquisition from the splendidly named Dr. Perikles Simon.

Dr Simon – actually I think I’ll call him Perikles: his parents deserve it – is Professor of Sports Medicine of the Johannes Gutenberg University of Mayence.

Unlike everyone else in the hall he has no particular interest in horseracing – a fact he was happy to confess – and so was able to deliver his opinions in a detached academic style that contrasted starkly with those later anxious to contradict him.

His message was long and seemed very learned but in synthesis – and synthesis is all when you’ve got 1,500 words to play with here – there is no chance of getting in front of the dopers, except through whistle blowers. Even Lance Armstrong was only caught because people blew the whistle on him. This set everyone thinking – or should have done – how often whistles are blown in racing?

Others rose to their feet to explain why there could be no comparison between racing and other sports.

And then in the session on “The Pattern: Now and in the Future” came the bombshell.

It was proposed by HKJC Director of Racing Bill Nader that the Pattern needs drastic reform.

Not only, at the current 459, are there far too many in the world – a figure that is in serious need of reduction to prevent galloping devaluation in the currency of Group 1 racing – but the spread of these Group 1s, including the 33 in Britain and

the 110 in the USA, needs review.

When you note there are nine Group 1s in Peru, and more in Argentina than in Britain and Ireland combined, you realise this is not an outrageous notion.

The real sensation came in the next suggestion though: that medication rules for Group and Grade racing must be standardised, and that Group races in countries that fail to meet international standards should lose their status.

The end of the debate a straw poll of delegates voted 59%-41% per cent in favour of a reduction of the number Group 1s, and…

82%-18% (most of the 800 plus delegates were present) in favour of medication standardisation.

This second measure, if ever adopted, would lead to the non-recognition of all North American Graded races.

There are a few reasons why this has not been greeted with the world-wide astonishment and consternation that might have been expected.

First, the Asian Racing Conference has no executive authority. It is a talking shop like other conferences.

Second, a straw poll has no scientific validity.

Third, if the standardisation suggestion ever came to pass, US racing would probably just shrug its collective shoulders and go on as it has been – though what would happen to events like the Breeders’ Cup is anybody’s guess.

Anyway the idea is out there now. The next international racing conference is in Paris. The IFHA, of which France’s Louis Romanet is chairman, has the power to implement suggestions relating to the Pattern.

Was this the Revolution? Or just the sort of hot air expelled at student conferences in the 70s?

The other big difference between the ARC and the NUS was that nowhere in Hong Kong, not even figuratively speaking, could one detect the unmistakeable smell of dope.

Opening planned for spring 2016 Good progress is being made on the redevelopment of Palace House Stables, the new site for the National Horseracing Museum

Looking to the future: the new National Horseracing Museum is to be a larger and more interactive facility

he finish line is on the horizon for the redevelopment project at the National Horseracing Museum.

Excavation and building work is well underway at Palace House Stables, the result of extensive planning, fund raising, lottery lobbying and effort by the museum, its friends and the Home of Horseracing Trust, which was formed with the sole aim of raising the required £15 million.

“The builders are to hand it back to us at Christmas and then we’ve got a year to fit it out, do the design, pack everything from the existing museum which totals around 8,000 objects,” explains Roz Howling, in charge of Marketing and Audience Development at the National Horseracing Museum.

“We think it will take between three and six months to pack

everything up and we’ve just recruited a project conservator to implement the planning and the packing. We’ll also be recruiting volunteers to help us out.

“The official opening will take place in spring 2016, either in association with the Craven or the Guineas meeting, and will coincide with the original opening of the museum in April 1983.”

The six-year long planning of the project has involved the restoration and sympathetic adaption of the historic Palace House and Stables site, built

by Charles II and reputed to be the oldest racing stables in the country.

The basis of the project is to create a new home for the National Horseracing Museum in the Trainers House and Kings Yard Stables, but with the supported add-ons that include the provision of a national gallery for British Sporting Art in Palace

We also want to be easily available to the young families and those who might not be that much ‘into’ racing

House, a small “live” racehorse training yard that would open to the public, a flagship base for the Retraining of Racehorses charity, as well as the restoration of the racing palace of Charles II. The site is a five-acre sanctuary containing Palace House, Charles II’s racing stables, the trainer’s house and a four and a half acre paddock.

The plot has survived the relentless pressure of

development over the years and in the early 1990s Forest Heath District Council prevented the threatened conversion of Palace House into flats. By 1998 the Council had restored Palace House to its former glory, and weather-proofed the trainer’s house and yards, but was left with the challenge of how to make best use of them – until some enlightened joined up thinking paved the way forward involving the relocation of the 31year old museum that had more than outgrown its current home.

Howling says: “The museum is very traditional and has not changed much in the last 30 years. Many of the objects it owns are in storage as currently there just is not the room to put them on show – at present only a third of the artefacts are shown.

“Moving from a five-gallery site to the five-acre plot will help to let us show everything we have.

the news “Although we do have lots of items that we can’t show due to space restrictions, the museum is still ‘object heavy’. It is planned that the new facility will be much more interactive, allowing visitors to explore thoroughbred racing, pick up on the sport’s colour and excitement.

“We also want to be easily available to young families and those who might not be that much ‘into’ racing, try to make racing much more accessible, breaking down the barriers. We want things to be very ‘touchy feely’; help visitors become and feel involved.

“There will be plenty of interactive screens, comparisons

to show the difference between human and equine anatomy, images to show just how the thoroughbred gallops literally on a point of a finger, how the equine system works, how the stride drives the lungs. Hyperion’s skeleton, which people love to see, is moving with us. There will be lots to see and do.

“The project has been funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund as well as a large number of trusts, philanthropists and individuals,” explains Howling, who adds that the build is coming in on budget.

“We have launched the endowment fund – The National Heritage Centre HLF Catalyst Endowment Fund. There are also

sponsorship opportunities for those wishing to have their name recognised in the galleries; funds raised through sponsorship can be directed either to the endowment fund or to the development of the displays.”

T

he Racing Foundation has also supported the project, which has led to the employment of an education officer, who is currently working closely alongside BHEST, while the site also has community aims, a prequisite for the £4.2 million lottery funding from the Heritage Fund. It is hoped that

Work in good progress at Palace House: the site has a lot of community, historical and social aims to fulfill

the museum will not only become a hub for the local town, but will also give the local population ownership and pride in the facility. It’s planned that a variety of community activities, even if held outside of the museum, will stem from Palace House.

The first courtyard, the Kings Yard, will include the café, will be ticketless and will be an open yard allowing free access. It is also planned that people will be able to cut through to the town, directed back through down Sun Lane, where most businesses don’t see a lot of foot fall, which will hopefully lead to economic benefits for the wider town.

“We are expecting 40-50,000 people a year,” says Howling, “which equates to 1,000 a week, 145 a day. That is a penetration of 0.8 per cent of people living in a 45-minute journey, much lower than the 1.6 per cent, which is the usual figure used to estimate visitor numbers for a heritage attraction. We are being conservative.

“And while there will be plenty for children to do and we are linking with the national curriculum, we are taking on board the ‘0-99’ learning policy, so making things interesting for everyone, not just the children.”

On top of all of the above there will also be the live racehorse stables where visitors will get the chance to see six or seven horses who will be in full training, as well as, on occasions, meet some equine heroes from the Retraining Of Racehorses charity.

Finally, it is hoped that Palace House will become an interactive research centre.

“Horseracing encompasses so much of the nation’s history from social history to royal history,” says Howling.

“We will have modern facilities, space to sit down, and visitors, from school children to professors, will be able to access books, library and resources in the research area.”

the news

Goffs London sale needs tweaks, but great concept The weather was quite British for the Irish-run Goffs London Sale at The Orangery in Kensington Palace, held on the eve of Royal Ascot… fairly chilly, grey and cloudy but at least dry.

After the sale ended, Henry Beeby, CEO of Goffs, said: “There is no doubt in our minds that the Goffs London Sale on the eve of Royal Ascot will become a permanent date in the calendar and we look forward to building on last night’s spectacular first event.”

Bloodstock agent Chad Schumer was full of praise for the sale: “It had the best atmosphere of a sale I have ever been to.”

To actually get the sale organised, as well as a party alongside, was a major acheivement and Goffs must be applauded.

The top price was achieved by subsequent Group 2 Coventry Stakes runner-up Cappella Sansevero, who was bought by Sheikh Fahad for £1.3 million, while Crystal Gaze and her Frankel foal, the spectacle and PR

event of the evening, was sold to MV Magnier for £1.15 million.

Of the other horses who went on to run at Royal Ascot, Cafe Society was bought by Gai Waterhouse for £330,000 and finished third in the Wolferton, Mubarak Al Naemi bought Bwana for £300,000; he brought up the rear guard in the Listed Windsor Castle field. Sadly, Case Statement, bought by new owner Shaeil Khalifa Alkuwari for £180,000, was fatally injured in the Coventry.

Lightning Thunder was second at both Newmarket and The Curragh, but Miss France disappointed in the Diane and Marvellous could finish only sixth in the Oaks.

However, Avenir Certain won both the Pouliches and the Diane decisively, firmly establishing her sire Le Havre as the pre-eminent sophomore sire in France.

Sheikh Hamdan Al Maktoum had a welcome return to the Group 1 winners’ circle with the first two home in the Oaks.

Tagroodha gave him a home-bred victory and his winning prize-money this season is already close to bettering any since 2010.

It was a popular win for her patient, and loyal, owner who may occasionally be criticised for using sometimes unpronounceable, and often confusing, names for his horses.

Thanks to Google, I am able to inform the unenlightened that Al-Taghrooda is traditional Bedouin chanted poetry.

We were underbidders on Australia as a yearling for John Pearce, who is still seeking his first Derby winner after Dragon Dancer narrowly lost out to Sir Percy in 2006.

I am mindful of Demi O’Byrne’s dictum about yearling buying: “You have to set limits. You write down what the horse is worth, you decide what you want to pay for it. Then you go into the ring, double that price and keep bidding until you get it!”

Ascot week began with a much heralded London Sale conducted by Goffs in association with Qipco.

It was an interesting, and slightly unusual, experiment held at

W

ith four English Classics and Royal Ascot over, the Flat season starts to prepare itself for the clash of the generations.

At present, only the mile contest between Kingman and Toronado has possibilities of taking place, as both Treve and Cirrus Des Aigles are temporarily sidelined.

Cirrus was dismounted after bravely winning the Coronation Cup at Epsom and Treve moved poorly to the start before finishing third in the Prince of Wales’s Stakes.

The 2,000 Guineas had looked a messy race with the field splitting into two groups and had many questioning why the course was not narrowed to lessen the chance of that happening, as there were only 14 runners.

The beaten Kingman restored his supporters’ confidence in the Irish 2,000 Guineas, beating Shifting Power by twice the distance he had at Newmarket.

The fillies’ Classic form has been a little muddled with Rizeena (back to form in the Coronation) failing to sparkle at Newmarket.

The Orangery, Kensington Palace.

There were elements of garden or cocktail party about it with the most striking difference being the physical absence of horses. Only Crystal Gaze and her Frankel colt were on the grounds, unless you count Joey from War Horse, ridden that evening by Johnny Murtagh.

The breeze-up horses were paraded at Kempton and shown on live TV link, the horses in training were all auctioned alongside video clips.

Sheikh Fahad supported his initiative buying the top-priced lot, Cappella Sansevero, who went on to finish a good second in the Coventry behind The Wow Signal owned by Al Shaqab Racing.

Gai Waterhouse struck a blow for the Aussie contingent by buying Cafe Society, who then ran a creditable third in the Wolferton for his new connections, as well as Pornichet, who had finished third in the Poule d’Essai des Poulains, in a private transaction.

Ascot was fortunate to have a good soaking on Friday night before the first day of the Royal meeting and the ground was just on the fast side of good for most of the week.

Training honours went to John Gosden, Sir Michael Stoute and

the news was topped by Mocklershill’s Distorted Humor sold to Stephen Hillen for £600,000.

Some tweaks are required – the breeze-up section felt too long and should not have started the sale, it would have been nice to have seen a racing promo on the big screen, the showing of stallions was unnecessary, while the Great British Racingsponsored drinks party – held indoors so with obvious pluses and with the wider goal of generally promoting racing – is unfortunately no longer.

And, while the sale is obviously for those with certain-sized wallets, it not only felt off-putting having the general public in Kensington Park staring through railings in a “them” and “us” scenario, it did not achieve one of the goals that a racehorse sale should always set out to achieve – that it should be accessible to all.

The Orangery is restrictive on numbers, but anyone should be able to walk in and enjoy the atmosphere of a sale. Importing a horse sale to London gives an unrivalled opportunity to touch

Edward Lynam, who had two Group 1 winners and a Group 2 from four runners, a wonderful strike rate.

Gosden had two Group 1 winners in The Fugue and Kingman and won the Chesham for the new mayor of Newmarket, Rachel Hood, who also happens to be his wife.

It was disappointing the mayoral chains did not get a showing in the winner’s enclosure. Hood named the horse Richard Pankhurst after the barrister also known as the “Red Doctor”, but perhaps best known as husband to Emmeline, the famous suffragette.

Retiring Ascot CEO Charles Barnett has done a good job in making Royal Ascot less daunting than when the new stand first opened and my Australian guests thoroughly enjoyed their race days and stayed for the community singing on Gold Cup day.

We made base on a table between the saddling boxes and paddock. it was obviously a prime spot as we had Mick de Kock’s group at the next table.

From the spot we were able to see the pre-parade ring, the Royal Procession, the horses as they left the paddock and the races on the big screen.

The only thing Ascot still has not got right is the unsaddling area for the unplaced horses – the space is too small and it is an accident in waiting.

My week ended with an interesting

morning at Kingsclere with Australian vet, Andrew Marty.

He was over for the International Conference on Equine Exercise Physiology held at Chester.

For the last few years he has been in Abu Dhabi looking after a camel stable, having previously been based in a racetrack practice at Caulfield.

He now looks after 350 camels under a trainer and assistant trainer who only speak Arabic. There are two camels to each groom, just like stables used to be in Britain through the early 20th century. The cheapest camel in the stable is worth £100,000, with the most expensive around £4,000,000.

About 70 per cent of the adult male population are involved in camel racing in some form. And as long as the sport continues in Abu Dhabi, Marty believes there will never be a threat of social unrest.

For the last seven years the camels have been “ridden” by robotic jockeys complete with mannequin faces, sunglasses, hats, racing silks and aftershave/cologne, replacing the very young riders who used to have to be velcroed on.

The trainers/ owners then control the robots from their four wheel drives. There are probably a few horse trainers everywhere who would like to deal with robotic jockeys after a bad race-ride.

the lives of those who may never ever have been in the vicinity of a thoroughbred auction.

A horse sale without horses showing themselves off in front of the buying audience, under the lights of the auditorium and with the buyers sat focused in a building purposely designed to maximise sales, is a negative. It was easy to lose concentration, and apart from a few interested agents, by the end, few of the high-worth individuals were paying attention (possibly no different from usual).

Future success of any sale depends on the consignors – it is not probably unrealistic to say that every racehorse trainer in Britain or Ireland will be hoping that he or she has a horse in training good enough to consign next year and it has given a visible outlet to the lucurative and popular, but until now private, top end mid-season horse-in-training market.

Equally, any breeze-up vendor may be less keen – it is late to be selling breeze-ups and, as most came from Ireland, it must have been a long weekend at Kempton.

London was a huge success

H

ats off to Goffs for holding such an elegant inaugural London Sale on the eve of Royal Ascot. The perfect setting on the edge of Hyde Park, Kensington Palace had a Royal touch with 3,000 guests, including the ruling family of Qatar as well as owners from Hong Kong, Australia, US, as well as, of course, a swath of British and Irish bloodstock agents.

Some horses sold in absentia and others appeared in the flesh much to the amazement of the passing tourists in Hyde Park, who listened to Henry Beeby sell at record vocal speeds.

As we had all hoped for, prices broke the £1,000,000 barrier, and the BBC News crew had First-season sire Group

16

a feature to include in the 10pm news . In media terms alone the Goff’s team moved everything to a new level with journalists present from Radio 5 live, The Times and even BBC 1.

Media coverage of this stature is mega; the cost to buy the same column space as advertising is unaffordable and editorial coverage is better remembered. This put the horse business into the real world – capital stuff.

We were all in awe of Goff’s who took an embryonic idea and created a living sale right there in the centre of London, and not in Dublin which would have been much easier for the Irish-based firm.

The business needs to be sold to the “people”, and in such a way that vast amounts of money don’t appear obscene – the “Frankel package” sorted that out, and the disappointment if Crystal Gaze and foal were not worth £1,000,000 would have been a talking point.

The breeze-up session was the warm-up act, but what the agents really wanted were the form horses, many who were holding Royal Ascot entries the next day and later in the week. The sale topper, Cappella Sansevero, a Showcasing colt

was bought by the vendor of the Frankel package so everybody was happy.

The value at the sale was the lifetime breeding rights to Invinicble Spirit, which fetched £160,000.

He is a 2003 model and will be a 12-year-old next year and currently stands at €70,000. There is plenty of time to recoup the outlay; I just wish I had a spare few quid!

The very next day Cappella Sansevero went on to finish second in the Coventry and later in the week the Aussies took some third-place prize-money with Café Scoiety so helping pay for the airfare home later in the week.

All Goffs need now is a little more luck on the racecourse: maybe a Melbourne Cup winner might do the trick or at the very least a Group 1 winner! That would be some achievement from an inaugural sale.

Henry Beeby and his energetic team at Goffs have something to be proud of and to mould over the next few years.

They have a success story and they have shown the world what the company can do outside of their comfort zone.

Top and bottom this was not only about a sale, it was about Goffs, QIPCO and the various partners who saw a bigger picture and weren’t frightened to build and change the sale as they went along.

Not all of it worked and it was not for everybody, but it catapulted our business into prime time TV and world-wide interest. Well done Goffs, well done Henry and well done Ireland. You showed London a thing or too!

The week that gave us...

royal ascot 2014

T

hough Royal Ascot’s 30 races produced victories for 14 market leaders and three second favourites, and only two at 20-1 or longer, it could nonetheless be described as a bookmakerfriendly meeting. But only, one supposes, if your name was Paddy Power.

The Dublin-based layer’s family – himself and parents David and Sabena – will have taken the same hits from punters as the rest

of their professional fraternity, but found ample consolation in the winners’ circle with the week’s two sprint stars.

Sole Power, in the King’s Stand Stakes and Slade Power, in the Diamond Jubilee Stakes, gave their eponymous owners and trainer Eddie Lynam a remarkable Group 1 double.

It was also a welcome pair for Cheveley Park Stud; the horses are by, respectively, Kyllachy and Dutch Art, both resident at the Newmarket nursery.

For 5-1 shot Sole Power (see Mare of the Month, page 91 for pedigree), whose trademark late swoop was deployed to perfection by Richard Hughes, it was a second successive King’s Stand Stakes, making him the seventh to win two in a row but the first since Gold Bridge 80 years before.

For 7-2 favourite Slade Power, who repelled all comers after being sent to the front more than a furlong down by Wayne

Lordan, it was a first strike at the top level. “I thought it couldn’t get any better when Sole won the King’s Stand again,” said Power, “but then it did.”

The Power horses run in the colours first used by David’s grandfather Richard, whose telegraphic address was Scarlet Stripes, as in the silks’ sleeves. In the family’s modern ownership era, Empirical Power launched the winning adventure at Roscommon in June 2004, followed by more lowish-grade fun from Lady, Optimal and Girl, all with the family suffix.

Sole came into the fold as a £32,000 yearling in 2008, and although his Nunthorpe Stakes victory two years later was regarded as something of an aberration as he flashed home to beat hot favourite Starspangledbanner at 100-1, the seven-yearold gelding has since proved himself one of the best 5f specialists on the circuit with, in

“

For an emerging stallion, a landmark Group 1 victory is always an achievement of note, particularly on a stage like Royal Ascot addition to his two Royal Ascot prizes, four lower-grade wins and top-company places at Longchamp, Meydan and Sha Tin. Five-year-old Slade Power was the first horse bred by his owners and though he was offered as a yearling he failed to find a buyer at £5,000.

His dam Girl Power, a €52,000 yearling

by Key Of Luck, was well-regarded enough

by County Meath-based Lynam to have a Guineas entry but in the end won only a Tipperary maiden as a three-year-old. Slade Power, whom she rejected after he was born, was her first foal; her second, and only other runner, is the Verglas filly Cool Power, a

winner at Leopardstown last year.

For an emerging stallion, a landmark Group 1 victory is always an achievement of note, particularly on a stage like Royal Ascot.

Slade Power can be counted as Dutch Art’s first; though the much lesser runner Ahern scored at nominally the top level in Macau in May, the Chinese territory is not part of the international mainstream.

Like his best son, Dutch Art was a Royal Ascot winner, taking the Norfolk Stakes eight years ago during an unbeaten juvenile career that culminated with two Group 1s, the Prix Morny and Middle Park Stakes. He failed to win at three, but posted some excellent efforts

Misunited (left), centre and, just visible, Estimate and Leading Light battle out the Gold Cup finish

in defeat, including when third in the 2,000 Guineas and a close second when reverting to 6f in the July Cup. Dutch Art, who stands alongside his sire Medicean, started his second career at £10,000, rising to £35,000 this year after a series of solid results from not only Slade Power, placed twice in Group 1 company, but also with such horses as Garswood, Producer and Caspar Netscher. He came close to his first Group 1 in the form of a Classic, when Lightning Thunder failed by just a neck to catch Miss France in the 1,000 Guineas in May. In all, it was a good week for Cheveley Park.

Dutch Art’s first crop also includes Baccarat, who streaked home in the Wokingham Handicap, 35 minutes after Slade Power’s success.

Kyllachy was also responsible for King’s Stand Stakes runner-up Stepper Point and his own veteran sire Pivotal for the eyecatching King Edward VII Stakes winner Eagle Top. At the other end of the distance spectrum it was pretty much business as usual as Leading Light gave Aidan O’Brien his sixth Gold Cup in nine years, after Yeats (2006-09) and Fame And Glory (2011).

The Gold Cup: the race of the week

The two and a half mile contest, now rightly back as the meeting’s centrepiece, produced a spectacle worthy of its status. Leading Light, last year’s St Leger winner, held the defending champion Estimate by a neck, with trail blazing Missunited a short-head behind in a pulsating finish between three so different, so gallant performers.

Leading Light had proved his stamina over two miles in the Queen’s Vase 12 months previously, but though the extra half-mile was uncharted territory, he started 10-11 favourite to navigate it successfully, his undoubted class and lazy running style being counted as assets. He won cosily enough in the end, but Estimate, running for the first time this year after an interrupted preparation, was carried out on her shield.

The pivotal moment may have been a quarter of a mile out when Joseph O’Brien, on Leading Light, firmly held his line as he challenged outside Brown Panther, forcing Ryan Moore on Estimate to switch round the weakening rival. The five-year-old mare, a credit to her trainer Sir Michael Stoute, kept the year-younger colt honest all the way to the line and likely produced a better performance in defeat than she had in victory.

royal ascot 2014 The admirable and versatile seven-yearold Missunited, who finished third in last year’s Prix Royal-Oak two months after notching her fourth hurdles success in the Galway Plate, was passed by the first two a furlong out, but rallied to force herself into the photo. Brown Panther’s stamina gave out, but he kept on well enough to hold last year’s runner-up Simenon by a neck for fourth.

Leading Light, by Montjeu out of Queen Mary Stakes heroine Dance Parade, was a second Gold Cup winner for his late sire, after Fame And Glory.

His stamina for the extreme distance is now proven, but he also has a turn of foot and a return to Ascot for the King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Stakes over a mile less would be an intriguing prospect.

Telescope: the performance of the week

There, he would meet Telescope, whose 7l rout of the Group 2 Hardwicke Stakes field was probably the best middle-distance performance this season so far by an older horse.

Of all the virtues need by a racehorse

“

Of all the virtues needed by a racehorse trainer, patience is arguably the most desirable and once again Stoute has shown he has it in spades trainer, patience is arguably the most desirable and once again Stoute has shown he has it in spades. Telescope was much fancied for last year’s Derby before a minor setback ruled him out and after a softly-softly autumn campaign and two creditable runs in defeat this year on unsuitably soft ground, the Galileo four-year-old, whose unraced dam is a Darshaan half-sister to Moon Ballad, was able to show his true, still-developing talent on the fast summer ground that suits his powerful, fluid action so well.

Telescope lived up to his hype, winning the Group 2 Hardwicke Stakes in tremendous fashion

In the saddle, Moore kept it simple; always close to the pace set by Ektihaam and Eye Of The Storm, he went for home early in the straight and drew further and further clear.

Second spot went to the 7-4 favourite’s stablemate Hillstar.

There was a sense of déjà vu in his performance – four years ago Stoute and Moore won the Hardwicke with another lightly-raced, progressive four-year-old in the same pale blue Highclere silks and that one, Harbinger, went on take the King George by 11l.

Treve: the disappointment of the week

The eclipse of last year’s top 1m2f performer Treve in the Prince Of Wales’s Stakes, beaten into third by The Fugue and Magician, was the one low point of the week.

The Arc heroine, never moving fluently, was found afterwards to have tweaked back muscles and is likely to return to action in the Prix Vermeille before the defence of her Longchamp crown under more favourable softer underfoot conditions.

The fast ground at Ascot, however, suited The Fugue and her little ballerina Top left, Toronado takes the Queen Anne setting up a miling clash in the Sussex Stakes at Glorious Goodwood with the St James’s Palace winner Kingman (top right).

royal ascot 2014 feet perfectly. The five-year-old daughter of Dansili has an admirable record at the top level – her latest Group 1 victory was her fourth and her second against the boys, whom she may take on again in the Eclipse Stakes.

Toronado and Kingman: the clash of the future

Among the milers, the victories of Toronado, from the Richard Hannon stable, in the Queen Anne Stakes and Kingman, trained by John Gosden, in the St James’s Palace Stakes, set up their inter-generation showdown in the Sussex Stakes.

Toronado confirmed he retains the class of his three-year-old campaign – when he beat

old rival Dawn Approach, his master in both the 2,000 Guineas and St James’s Palace Stakes, in last year’s Goodwood feature – with a comprehensive defeat of the Ballydoyle US recruit Verrazano.

Toronado is the best miler by Coolmore’s Derby winner High Chaparral, who is largely an influence for stamina for further.

Conversely Kingman is now rated the best over the 8f by Irish National Stud resident Invincible Spirit, whose progeny tend to shine, as he did, over sprint distances.

Kingman had his own score to settle against a Guineas winner and duly did so, easily putting Night Of Thunder, who had benefited from the run of the race when

snatching the Rowley Mile Classic close home, back in his place.

Rizeena back to her best

There was Royal Ascot compensation, too, for two of the fillies involved in the 1,000 Guineas. Rizeena finished seventh as second favourite for the Classic, but justified her veteran trainer Clive Brittain’s faith with a narrow but decisive defeat of Lesstalk In Paris, who was likewise bouncing back to form after disappointing as favourite for the Pouliches. Rizeena, by Kildangan-based Iffraaj, may yet take on the males in her division, with the Queen Elizabeth II Stakes her end-of-season target.

She has one of the best pedigrees in the book, being out of Cherry Hinton, a Group 3-placed half-sister to Galileo and Sea The Stars and the only one of Urban Sea’s talented brood not to win.

Six sires get two winners

As the table opposite shows, Montjeu was one Baitha Alga: for first-season sire Fast Company

of six sires to double up during the week, and one of the two to do so in Group contests. The other was Starspangledbanner in the two top juvenile contests – his son The Wow Signal won the Group 2 Coventry Stakes and his daughter Anthem Alexander, a stablemate of the Power sprinters, the Group 2 Queen Mary Stakes.

Frustratingly, Starspangledbanner – a top-class miler in his native Australia and winner of the Diamond Jubilee Stakes and July Cup here – proved subfertile at stud under the Coolmore banner and has had only six runners.

Four of his sole crop have won and now two at Royal Ascot. But the what might have been may yet be – the son of Choisir has returned to Australia, where he is undergoing treatment for his problem and hopes are high that he will achieve respectable fertility.

Fast Company joins debut winners

The other first-crop sire with a juvenile winner at the meeting was Rathasker Stud’s Fast Company, whose sole defeat in just three runs came by New Approach in the Dewhurst Stakes. The son of Danehill Dancer was on

the mark with Baitha Alga – like Toronado and The Wow Signal a bearer of the Qatari Al Shaqab silks – in the Group 2 Norfolk Stakes.

Despite several well-fancied contenders, there was no juvenile winner for O’Brien, but the Coolmore ownership partners had one in Hootenanny, who made his, Wesley Ward’s and Victor Espinoza’s journey from the States thoroughly worthwhile as he streaked away with the Listed Windsor Castle Stakes on his first turf run. The Quality Road colt may go on take on the older sprinters in the Nunthorpe Stakes.

Moore, with six winners (Integral, Cannock Chase, Rizeena, Arab Spring, Telescope and Pique Sous) was leading jockey for the fourth time in five years. The ride he gave Pique Sous in the Queen Alexandra Stakes, matched his similar hard-puller masterclass on The Grey Gatsby in the Jockey-Club.

Stoute’s four winners (Integral, Cannock Chase, Arab Spring and Telescope) meant he pipped John Gosden (Kingman, The Fugue, Eagle Top and Richard Pankhurst) to the meeting’s trainers’ title, his sixth, by dint of his three seconds (Estimate, Bold Sniper and Hillstar.

It looked a pretty good 2,000 Guineas...

...to Jocelyn de Moubray’s eyes especially as three of the beaten horses have already gone on to Group 1 success

T

he races are the same.

In Britain and Ireland at least the Classic races take place over the same course on more or less the same day of the year, and for those standing alongside or watching on television they present a familiar and, in some ways, repetitive spectacle, but every year the quality is very different.

Classic races are a frame designed by chance more than anything else, but, with the perspective of countless repetitions, far more of course than living memory, they have become a way of judging succeeding generations.

The races themselves are always difficult to win, but some years the competition is a great deal better than in others thanks to the vagaries of what is essentially an “agricultural” product.

It may be simply chance, or the result of the various climatic variables, but racehorses are not the same every year.

The time, effort and money invested changes only slowly, almost imperceptibly, but the results of the population as a whole are remarkably different from one season to the next.

This year’s renewal of the 2,000 Guineas was one of the best of recent years. Thirty years after El Gran Senor beat Chief Singer,

A happy Mr Fallon on Night Of Thunder who bolstered stallion Dubawi’s reputation even further as a sire of Guineas horses

gb and ire classics 2014 Lear Fan and Rainbow Quest in 1984, this year’s edition looks to have been of a similar standard.

In the meantime the years which stand out are perhaps 1989, when Nashwan beat Exbourne, Danehill and Markofdistinction, or 2010 when Makfi surprised Dick Turpin and Canford Cliffs with the favourite St Nicholas Abbey only sixth.

What makes this year’s running appear unusual is that only 7l covered the first 11 home, and, yet only a month later, it looks more likely than not that all 11 are very high class racehorses.

At the time of writing, before Royal Ascot, these Guineas principals had run seven times subsequently, winning three Group 1s, a Group 2 and a Group 3, and were only beaten by others from the same race.

At this stage is looks as though the Derby winner Australia and the Irish 2,000 Guineas winner Kingman were the best horses in the Guineas field, but Night Of Thunder,

“

Dubawi’s first five crops have included two Guineas winners, Makfi and Night Of Thunder, and two Guineas-placed horses in Hermival and Dubawi Gold Toormore, Kingston Hill, War Command and The Grey Gatbsy are already Group 1 winners and of the four who have not yet reached this level – Shifting Power, Charm Spirit, Noozhoh Canarias and Bookrunner – will all get their chance before the end of July in either the Prix Jean Prat or the July Cup.

Kingman and jockey James Doyle enjoyed their Classic day with success in the Irish 2,000 Guineas

Night Of Thunder was a surprising winner, because he had been beaten so readily by Kingman in the Group 3 Greenham Stakes at Newbury in April. The conditions at Newmarket were very different, good to firm ground rather than soft at Newbury, and like Kingman and Australia, Night Of Thunder lacked experience of high-class races.

The race was a muddling one to watch because the good horses were split into two groups on different sides of the wide Rowley Mile course – it was hard to tell if there was a distinct advantage to one side or the other.

Noozhoh Canarias took the far side along at a very fast pace, with Night Of Thunder and Kingman held up behind, while the Richard Hannon-trained pair Shifting Power and Toomore led the stands’ side group, which also included Australia, Kingston Hill and War Command.

Once the Spanish-trained horse began to fade, Kingman looked to be the likely winner until Night Of Thunder began his run which took him from one side of the track to the other, but saw him pass Kingman to win by a half length with Australia close up in third.

Night Of Thunder comes from Dubawi’s fifth crop, and the last at which he was covering at the relatively low level of £20,000. Dubawi’s first five crops have included two Guineas winners, Makfi and Night Of Thunder, and two Guineas-placed horses in Hermival and Dubawi Gold. It is a remarkable rate of success not least because most Dubawi’s are backward horses and are rarely at their peak for the Guineas, which is more often than not seen as the “last” two-year-old race rather than the first test for three-year-olds.

This year’s crop of three-year-olds is Dubawi’s biggest by some way. The best of the remainder look to be the French-trained pair Bawina and Nolohay, who lacked the maturity to compete in the French spring Classics.

Dubawi’s record is likely to become better still over the coming years as he has been covering more than 140 mares a year at fees up to £100,000.

Another oddity of Dubawi’s record is that, to date, none of his high-class horses were expensive yearlings. In part this is because the Maktoum family breed around half of his production and so few come on the market, but Night Of Thunder fits in with the trend having been purchased by Rabbah Bloodstock as a yearling for only 32,000gns.

He was bred by Frank Dunne and is the

Newmarket maiden nor his Group 3 win at Sandown did he have to beat anything like a high-class horse.

At Newbury, Prince Khalid Abdullah’s Invincible Spirit colt looked to be very good indeed racing clear of Night Of Thunder without having to be asked for any sort of an effort.

After the Newmarket Guineas he went to The Curragh to win the Irish 2,000 Guineas on soft ground by 5l, doubling his superiority over the second Shifting Power, who had been fourth in Newmarket.

Kingman is the best son of his sire to date, and became the first Invincible Spirit colt to win a Group 1 as a three-year-old since

gb and ire classics 2014 Lawman in 2007.

His dam Zenda won the Poule d’Essai Des Pouliches and is a half-sister to Oasis Dream. The surprising thing about Zenda is that she took so long to produce a top horse – her first stakes winner was her fifth foal, the Dansili colt Remote, and Kingman is her sixth offspring.

“

... this looks like being an ordinary generation for Galileo’s progeny as a whole

Australia is not the best son of Galileo, but then there is very strong competition for that title and after Frankel the son of Ouija Board must already rank among the top five alongside horses like New Approach, Rip Van Winkle and Nathaniel.

Australia was not as precocious and gained little experience at two managing to be beaten on his debut, narrowly winning a maiden over 7f and then running away with a fourrunner Group 3 over a mile in September.

He came into the Guineas with even less experience than either Night Of Thunder or Kingman and yet he would have won most recent renewals and, perhaps, even this one as well if he raced in the same group as the two who beat him.

Aussie rules

The Coolmore group’s colt started a very short-priced favourite for the Derby, and was travelling like the winner throughout the race. He was held up well away from the rails

by Joseph O’Brien, ran down the hill with enthusiasm and drew alongside Kingston Hill in front with a furlong to go while still racing well within himself.

If there was ever a moment of doubt it was when Kingston Hill quickened again, taking the first three away from the rest of the field, but Australia was always in charge and won in the end by a length and a quarter from the son of Mastercraftsman, who had been raised at Woodcote Stud only a few miles away from Epsom racecourse.

Australia is further proof of the fact that sires of late-developing middle-distance horses do not necessarily need faster mares to get high-class horses.

Lord Derby’s Ouija Board was, of course, a great champion and up to her victory in the Oaks her career was broadly similar to Australia’s, three average runs at two and then a win at Newmarket in May before her Classic victory.

Ouija Board was far better than her dam’s other progeny, but comes from a family with plenty of top class winners, including the Group and Grade 1 winners Teleprompter, Ibn Bey and Roseate Tern. Ouija Board was a Breeders’ Cup winner and Ibn Bey was second in the Breeders’ Cup Classic and so perhaps Australia will try to add to the

family’s excellent US record. He is sure to end up covering alongside his sire and Rip Van Winkle as Coolmore prepare the stud for a post-Galileo world.

Australia was at 525,000gns the fourthmost expensive Galileo colt of his generation, and he is far superior to those who made more as a yearling.

In fact, so far, this looks like being an ordinary generation for Galileo’s progeny as a whole. Coolmore’s sire has about 160 three-year-olds only four of whom had won Group races before Royal Ascot – Australia, Marvellous, Orchestra and Adelaide.

In 2011, by way of comparison, he had eight Group 1 performers before Royal Ascot from a crop of a similar size produced when he was standing at only €150,000.

Kingston Hill has more ability than many Classic winners and is a second top horse from the first crop of his sire Mastercraftsman, sire of the Jockey-Club winner The Grey Gatsby.

Kingston Hill’s third dam is Dance By Night, the mare which helped establish Woodcote Stud in the 1980s by producing the dual Group 1 winner Danseuse Du Soir and several other Group winners and producers.

Audacieuse, the dam of Kingston Hill, won three races in France for Woodcote Stud and Elie Lellouche, including a Listed and the Group 3 Prix de Flore over 1m2f on her last start. This is a very tough family and as Left, Taghrooda (Sea The Stars) takes the Oaks, giving the first-time Classic-winning jockey Paul Hanagan (below) plenty to smile about

Miss France: the daughter of the Prix Marcel Boussac (G1) winner and Prix de Diane second Miss Tahiti (Tirol) is the 18th Group 1 winner for sire Dansili

Mastercraftsman was also a remarkably hardy performer Kingston Hill is likely to come back from the Derby and win more Group 1 races, even if it is hard to see him turning the tables on Australia.

1,000 Guineas field finished in a heap

The 1,000 Guineas is a more difficult race to evaluate as the field finished close together, and they do not all look to be of the highest class. The race was not run at a particularly fast pace and it is possible that those who raced up with the early leaders had an advantage over those who waited further behind.

The Wildenstein family’s Miss France was among those who were prominent and the André Fabre-trained daughter of Dansili held off the challenges of Lightning Thunder and Ihtimal to win by a neck and a half length and these three finished a little clear of their rivals.

Lightning Thunder, an Ollie Stevenstrained daughter of Dutch Art, went on to finish second to the Coolmore filly Marvellous in the Irish 1,000 Guineas, which was run on very soft ground, while Godolphin’s Ihtimal finished fifth in the Oaks on her subsequent start. The Shamardal filly Ihtimal has an amazing record as she has run in eight Group or Listed races over the last year and has won four, been placed in three and was less than 5l behind the winner in the Oaks.

Oaks: the best of the fillies’ races

The Oaks looked to be the best of the English and Irish fillies’ Classics, even if the nature of the course at Epsom tends to extenuate the distances between horses at the finish –Taghrooda was markedly superior to her 16

rivals, and the first five finished 5l or more in front of the others.

Hamdan Al Maktoum’s Taghrooda is another top horse by a sire of late-developing middle-distance horses out of a mare who was best over middle distances.

From the first crop of Sea The Stars Taghrooda’s dam, the Sadler’s Wells mare Ezima, won Listed races over 1m2f and 1m6f and was Group placed over 1m4f.

The Oaks was only the third career start for the John Gosden-trained filly and she stepped up on her earlier start to quicken off a strong pace and win by nearly 4l. The four behind her – Tarfasha, Volume, Inchila and Ihtimal – finished within a length and it would be difficult to say which would come out ahead if they were to meet with similar conditions.

Volume, a Mount Nelson filly trained by Luca Cumani had made the running and became unbalanced for a moment on the Epsom camber, interfering with Inchila, who was staying on behind her.

Once she had found her action, Volume quickened again and would have taken second from the Teofilo filly Tarfasha in a stride.

Inchila, a daughter of Dylan Thomas owned and bred again by Woodcote Stud, looked the unluckiest finishing fourth just ahead of Ihtimal, who came from a long way back without ever threatening the leaders.

Some years racing three-year-olds over 1m4f at Epsom in June appears to be an anachronistic folly, or something of interest only to Coolmore and its partners. This year both the Derby and Oaks were strong races whose principals should have a large influence on the racing year, and the European breeding programme for years to come.

www.internationalthoroughbred.net

he best performance by a French-based three-year-old colt came back in April. Gerard Augustin Normand and Elizabeth Vidal’s Ectot confirmed the promise of his three Group wins at two with a winning comeback over a mile in the Group 3 Prix de Fontainebleau at Longchamp on April 13.

The son of Hurricane Run followed his leader into the straight and quickened clear of his seven rivals with ease. He was given a very easy race, but still managed to hold the late challenge of the other French-trained Group 1 juvenile from 2013, the Niarchos family’s Karakontie, to win by a neck. The pair finished clear of their rivals.

Ectot would have started favourite for the Poule d’Essai des Poulains and, as a son of Hurricane Run, it is more than likely that he will turn out to be better over further than a mile.

Unfortunately, shortly before the first French Classic, he was ruled out with a hairline fracture. This was a setback rather than a career-ending injury and Ectot was back training on the track under the supervision of Elie Lellouche at the beginning of June and will return to the races in either August or September.

In his absence and with no significant foreign challengers, the Poule d’Essai des Poulains looked to be at the mercy of Karakontie, who has put up a string of highclass performances since defeating Ectot on their joint debut at Compiegne last July.

Karakontie is a high-class and consistent

If the French-trained three-year-old colts did not appear to be an outstanding group, there are still several fillies who could develop into real champions performer, but the son of Bernstein lacks the brilliance of a real star. He won the Poule but had to give everything to do so after Prestige Vendome had made the most of an ordinary early pace to quicken clear.

On the line the Jonathan Pease-trained colt had a neck to spare over Guy Pariente’s Prestige Vendome, an Orpen half-brother to last year’s Poule d’Essai winner, Style Vendome.

Prestige Vendome is trained, like hs brother, by Nicholas Clement and the stable’s other runner, Pornichet, was third only a length and a half behind.

Pornichet is a son of the much under-rated stallion Vespone, who has never been able to overcome the stigma of being by Llandaff.

Vespone has only 33 three-year-olds and yet they include a Group winner, two Listed winners and two Group 1 performers in Pornichet and Stillman, but he is still covering for next to nothing in the French provinces.

Karakontie and Prestige Vendome went on to the Prix du Jockey-Club, but neither ever looked like overcoming their outside draws or staying the extra two and a half furlongs.

Prestige Vendome was prominent until fading away over the final two furlongs, whereas Karakontie was held up and never got in the race.

In fact, none of the French-trained runners did and from at least two furlongs out, the race was clearly going to be won by the Yorkshiretrained French-bred, The Grey Gatsby.

Bred by the Englishman Malcolm Parrish at Haras du Cadran in Normandy, The Grey Gatsby was in midfield while the leaders set off at a very fast pace on ground which was riding firm, despite rain earlier in the week.

Once in the straight he was the only horse still travelling easily and under Ryan Moore he accelerated impressively and raced away for a 3l victory, giving trainer Kevin Ryan his

first Classic win.

The Grey Gatsby has stepped up significantly since racing over further than a mile and he stayed the trip without any trouble.

The son of Mastercraftsman’s stamina is relatively surprising as he comes from what is essentially a fast family whose most famous member is the unraced Malibu Moon, who has become a leading sire in the US. The Grey Gatsby has certainly earned his place at stud and, if this was far from a vintage Jockey-Club, he won comfortably by a clear margin. Only he and Lope De Vega have won the 1m2f Jockey Club by further than 2l.

Over this course and distance the winning margin may be a better guide to class than the winning time and it is interesting that the only fillies to have won the Diane in recent

Final Score gets the hat-trick in Italy

It is hard to know what to make of Italian racing at present as there are so few foreign runners in the big races and the domestic scene is dominated by the stable of Stefano Botti, who won both the Derby and the Oaks with products of Dylan Thomas.

The filly Final Score completed a remarkable treble for her dam Holy Moon whose daughters Cherry Collect, Charity Line and now Final Score have won the last three runnings of the Oaks D’Italia, however, it is the colt Dylan Mouth, who looks more likely to succeed outside Italy, even if he didn’t manage it at Royal Ascot.

In the Derby Italiano the useful Germantrained colt Oil Of England was 3l behind Dylan Mouth in third and the Frenchtrained Dark Sea finished fifth.

Neither Final Score nor Dylan Mouth were impressive, but both are true stayers and, after being hard ridden to make their run, were both well on top at the post.

Holy Moon is inbred to Nijinsky being by Hernando out of a Caerleon mare and she won a Listed race over 1m1f and was second in another over 1m4f.

Cottonmouth, the dam of Dylan Mouth, comes, like Shamkala from the family of Shergar and the daughter of Noverre won 12 races coming from handicaps to win 3 Listed races over 1m3f and a Group 3 over 1m2f.

years by further than 2l are Treve, Stacelita, Zarkava and Divine Proportions. It puts the two colts in good company.

The disappointment of the Jockey-Club was the run of the favourite Prince Of Gibraltar, who had previously looked very good when winning on soft ground at Saint-Cloud.

The race was a nightmare for the JeanClaude Rouget-trained son of Rock Of Gibraltar. He missed the break, failed to settle, was forced to race wide on the turn and was then repeatedly interfered with in the home straight. To win the new Jockey-Club coming from behind you either have to be far better than your rivals or get a miraculous run in the straight. On the day Prince Of Gibraltar was not the former and didn’t get the second.

If the French-trained three-year-old colts did not appear to be an outstanding group, there are still several fillies who could develop into real champions.

Miss France won the English 1,000 Guineas, Avenir Certain was a brilliant winner of the Poule d’Essai des Pouliches and the Prix de Diane, We Are won the Group 1 Prix Saint Alary in a few strides and Shamkala has looked very special on all of her three starts. On the day of the Jockey-Club, both Savanne and Fintry looked as though they will be top class when winning the Royaumont and the Sandringham respectively.

G

erard Augustin Normand and Antonio Caro’s Avenir Certain is the unbeaten star of her sire Le Havre’s remarkable first crop.

The Haras de la Cauvinière sire has had 17 different three-year-old winners by the beginning of June, and if Avenir Certain is the best of them at least ten others have looked like potential stakes horses – an amazing achievement for a stallion who stood at only €5,000 in 2010.

Avenir Certain is unbeaten in five starts and on her first try at a Group race she showed exceptional speed to quicken away from a high class field in the Pouliches.

We Are is also unbeaten and, after beating stakes-class colts in a conditions race at SaintCloud, was far better than her seven rivals in the Saint Alary, winning in a canter.

...Royer-Dupré has made it clear that he considers the Aga Khan’s Pivotal filly Shamkala to be his best Telluride, Lily’s Angel and Dream Clover.

Alain de Royer-Dupré looks to have an excellent group of three-year-old fillies, including the Group winner Vazira, the Listed winner Cladocera and the impressive maiden winner Defrost My Heart, but Royer-Dupré has made it clear that he considers the Aga Khan’s Pivotal filly Shamkala to be his best.

She was unbeaten in her first three starts with Christophe Soumillon looking around for dangers. She finished a close fourth

stepping up to Group 1 comany in the Diane.

She is a daughter of the Intikhab mare Shamakiya, who was Group placed over a 1m4f and is from the family of Shergar.

Avenir Certain beat her Amour A Papa, Xcellence and Miss France, the winner is more than likely to be a true champion.

André Fabre’s stable has some very good fillies too and, aside from the Wildenstein family’s Miss France, Gestüt Ammerland’s Savanne is another high-class prospect.

On her third career start the Fabre filly made all the running to record victory in the 1m4f Group 3 Prix de Royaumont beating the excellent stakes winner Ball Dancing and Zarkava’s half-sister Zarshana.

The daughter of Rock Of Gibraltar is the first foal of Sevenna, a Galileo mare, who won a Group race at Goodwood for Ammerland and Sir Henry Cecil.

Fabre saddled another high-class filly on the day of the Jockey-Club when Godolphin’s Fintry won the Group 2 Prix de Sandringham over a mile. The daughter of Shamardal has only ever been beaten by the Poule d’Essai runner up Veda and she has improved since that defeat to win a Listed by a wide margin and the Sandringham with plenty to spare.

Preis der Diana could be key race of the European season There will not be many British or Irish-trained runners in the Preis der Diana with such a strong domestic field from Germany, and Andreas Wöhler is determined to run his Manduro filly Meerjungfrau, who is also unbeaten in three starts.

On her only start this year Meerjungfrau came from last place to beat Ajaxana and Emerald Star in a Group 3 over a mile in Cologne.

The second, another daughter of Rock Of Gibraltar, was a comfortable winner of the German 1,000 Guineas, and the third, a daughter of Mount Nelson, beat older horses to win a Group 3 at Lingfield and so Meerjungfrau is clearly a high-class prospect.

Ajaxana is heading for the Preis der Diana in August where she will meet another very impressive unbeaten filly in Gestüt Rottgen’s Mount Nelson filly Weltmacht.

This half-sister to Wild Coco is trained by Markus Klug, currently the leading trainer in Germany, and after making a good winning debut at Dusseldorf, looked like a future star when running away with a conditions race in Cologne to win by a wide margin.

Klug also trains the leading German three-year-old colt Sea The Moon, who maintained his unbeaten record with an all-the-way win in a Group 2 at Cologne. This was only the Gestüt Gorlsdorf’s colt’s second career start and he still looked very green in running.

The son of Sea The Stars is likely to improve between now and the Deutsches Derby at the beginning of July. At this early stage his most dangerous rivals appears to be his stable companion Weltmacht, who is heading for Hamburg as well, and the Group 2 Mehl MulhensRennen Lucky Lion and Gestüt Schlenderhan’s Ito. Lucky Lion is a son of High Chaparral, who has won all three of his starts this year for Gestüt Winterhauch and trainer Andreas Lowe.

Lucky Lion got very stirred up before his prep race and again on the day of the Guineas and is clearly not an easy horse to deal with, but won comfortably both times nevertheless. He is the first foal of the Big Shuffle mare Lips Arrow, who was a Listed winner over 7f, and so

Adlerflug has a number of promising horses from a small first crop,

is not certain to be suited to the 1m4f of the Deutsches Derby.

Ito is one of several very promising horses from the first crop of the Deutsches Derby winner Adlerflug, who stands at Gestüt Harzburg and is also part of the strong revival of the Schlenderhan and Baron von Ullmann stable under its new trainer Jean-Pierre Carvalho.

Surprisingly, only third on his debut, Ito returned to Cologne a month later and scored an impressive 5l win from other useful colts.

This son of the Preis der Diana winner Iota looks like the best colt in the stable, despite the claims of the Dalakhani colt Guardini and the Tertullian colt Guiliani, who have both impressed in France, and the Hanover Derby Trial winner Swacadelic, another son of Adlerflug.

Adlerflug has two Listed winners, Swacadelic and the Klug-trained filly Wunder, as well as Ito and several other useful looking horses from a first crop of only 39 foals.

In The Wings is an important influence in Germany as the sire of both Soldier Hollow and Adlerflug, who won the Deutsches Derby by 7l, another Group 1 in Germany at four, also by 7l. As a five-year-old he was beaten a length by Vision d’Etat in the Prix Ganay. He is a relation of Galileo’s – he is by a son of Sadler’s Wells, while his second dam is a half-sister to Allegretta, the dam of Galileo’s dam Urban Sea.

The wait continues

So near yet so far.... the American dream of a modern-day Triple Crown winner was once again denied in the last leg at Belmont, writes Nancy Sexton

F

OR the ninth time in the past 30 years, it appeared as if the Triple Crown was going to be attained. A 36-year drought for US racing’s Holy Grail, not won since Affirmed swept the series in 1978, had prompted quiet musings that a reassessment of the challenging format was in order. But when California Chrome emerged as the dominant leader of his crop to post

wide-margin victories in the Kentucky Derby and Preakness Stakes, it appeared as if the country’s cravings for a Triple Crown winner would finally be satisfied.

Sadly, it was not to be. The Belmont Stakes, run at Belmont Park over 1m4f, a gruelling distance for US-bred threeyear-olds of today, proved a step too far for California Chrome, as it had done for other recent Triple Crown hopefuls such as Big Brown, Smarty Jones and Funny Cide.

As Tonalist and Commissioner fought out the finish at the business end in front of an estimated crowd of 100,000, California Chrome was falling further adrift under Victor Espinoza, eventually dead-heating for fourth with Arkansas Derby winner Wicked Strong.

The US thoroughbred of today does not relish 1m4f, a trait which has been developed

alongside the desires of the commercial market. Nor do many three-year-olds thrive on a busy regime, certainly not one which takes in three championship races – the Kentucky Derby, Preakness Stakes and Belmont Stakes – run in three different states in five weeks.

California Chrome may be a flashy and flamboyant performer but on the first Saturday in June at Belmont Park, the third leg of the Triple Crown was a step too far. In return, it’s format prompted a controversial attack from the colt’s co-owner Steve Coburn.

Up until Coburn’s outburst in the aftermath of the Belmont, California Chrome’s story – his background and connections – had been embraced by the public. His trainer 77-year-old Art Sherman maintains a small string in California and has his own slice of racing folklore having galloped the legendary Swaps as a youngster.

Coburn makes a living out of operating a press that makes magnetic strips for credit cards, and if you throw in a $2,500 stud fee for his sire Lucky Pulpit and an $8,000 dam, Love The Chase, it’s the type of story that racing worldwide thrives on.

However, in many eyes, Coburn walked out of Belmont Park a bad loser (although he apologised after). “I’ll never see another Triple Crown winner in my lifetime because of the way they do this, he said in a NBC broadcast shortly after California Chrome’s defeat. It’s not fair to these horses that have been in the game since day one. If you don’t make enough points to get into the Kentucky Derby, you can’t run in the other two races.

It’s all or nothing because this is not fair to these horses that have been running their guts out for these people and for the people Left, Leg one, won: California Chrome justified favouritism to win the Kentucky Derby with ease, and he followed up, right, in Leg two, the Preakness Stakes. It was the joint-fastest time in the race since Curlin’s success in 2007

us racing that believe in them. This is a coward’s way out.

Following a winning streak that comprised the San Felipe Stakes and Santa Anita Derby, in addition to the Kentucky Derby and Preakness Stakes, California Chrome heads into his summer break having bankrolled $3,317,000 so far this year.

However, as much as California Chrome’s background should give every owner and breeder hope, it is one which will not make him an easy sell in relation to his ability when he goes to stud.

Bred in California by Steve Coburn and Perry Martin when his sire Lucky Pulpit stood for $2,500, he is the first foal out of Love The Chase, who cost the pair just $8,000. By Not For Love, a stalwart of the Maryland stallion ranks, Love The Chase won once over a mile for an $8,000 tag at Golden Gate Fields and is a half-sister to a 6f winner.

They are out of a moderate sprint winner, Chase The Dream, by Polish Numbers. It is a blue collar family more associated with hardknocking minor winners – in fact, California Chrome is the first Graded stakes winner under his first four dams.

Those hunting for an answer as to why California Chrome might be so talented have latched on to the fact that Love The

“

With no more than 28 foals in any of Lucky Pulpit’s first four crops, it is to his credit that he has been able to sire California Chrome Chase is inbred 3x3 to Ogden Phipps’s brilliant racemare Numbered Account, the granddam of Not For Love and dam of Polish Numbers. Numbered Account, a daughter of Buckpasser, was the champion American two-year-old filly of 1971 and went on to exert a major influence at stud as the dam of Private Account, the 1980 Widener Handicap winner who sired Personal Ensign, and 1983 Beldame Stakes winner Dance Number.

T

Rooney Handicap winner Starship Truffles, incidentally the only other Grade 1 winner out of a Not For Love mare.

California Chrome is by far the best runner sired by Lucky Pulpit. However, that is not to say that Lucky Pulpit, who enjoyed his finest moment on the track when successful in the 5f Smile Stakes and stands at Harris Farms in California, has been a disappointment.

With no more than 28 foals in any of Lucky Pulpit’s first four crops, it is to his credit that he has been able to sire California Chrome – one of 24 foals from his fourth crop – in addition to the Grade 1-placed Rousing Sermon and restricted stakes winners Luckarack and Gatheratthealter.

Greater opportunities naturally lie ahead for Lucky Pulpit now he has broken through at the highest level and it will be interesting to see how his stud career develops. But it wouldn’t be surprising to see the stallion continue to make his presence felt; he is after all a son of Pulpit, whose other sire sons include Tapit and Sky Mesa.

oday, Numbered Account features as the ancestress of a number of top-class runners, notably Super Saver, Bluegrass Cat and Imagining, who became Giant’s Causeway’s 28th Group and Grade 1 winner when successful in the Man O’War Stakes in May. And California Chrome isn’t the only good runner inbred to the mare – another to boast a similar pattern is last year’s Princess

...last year’s Belmont Stakes winner – the stand-out of Curlin’s first crop – demonstrated a rare versatility to successfully cut back to a mile...

Although California Chrome wound up

well beaten in the Belmont Stakes, the race actually provided a clean sweep of the series for grandsons of Pulpit, whose son Tapit accounted for the winner Tonalist.

The Christophe Clement-trained colt only broke his maiden on January 21 and lined up in the Belmont off the back of an easy win in the Grade 2 Peter Pan Stakes. His narrow victory in the Belmont Stakes, in which he beat Commissioner, one of 36 foals from the final crop of A.P. Indy, provided Tapit with a third Grade 1 winner of 2014 following Untapable’s romp in the Kentucky Oaks and Constitution in the Florida Derby.

With eight Graded stakes winners to his credit already this season, Tapit is dominating the leading US sires’ list thanks to progeny earnings of nearly $6,800,000.

While Tapit is capable of siring top runners over 1m1f to 1m2f – Careless Jewel

and Untapable being notable examples – Tonalist’s ability to last home over 1m4f can be attributed to the influence of his damsire Pleasant Colony.

Bred by Woodslane Farm and sold privately to Robert Evans (whose father Thomas Mellon Evans campaigned Pleasant Colony, winner of the Kentucky Derby and Preakness Stakes) after failing to sell for $195,000 at the Fasig-Tipton Saratoga Sale, he is out of Settling Mist, a winning granddaughter of 1991 Broodmare of the Year Toll Booth. It is the family of American Horse of the Year Havre De Grace and Florida Derby hero Plugged Nickle.

The Belmont Stakes capped an outstanding card on June 7 at Belmont Park, which hosted five other Grade 1 races and offered prize-money of $8 million. Arguably the most exciting finish of the night was recorded in the Ogden Phipps Handicap, when

Juddmonte’s First Defence filly Close Hatches narrowly fended off Princess Of Sylmar. Dual champion Beholder took fourth.

Todd Pletcher may have come off second best with Princess Of Sylmar in the Ogden Phipps, but his Palace Malice turned in an impressive performance under top weight to take the Metropolitan Handicap. In doing so, last year’s Belmont Stakes winner – the stand-out of Curlin’s first crop – demonstrated a rare versatility to successfully cut back to a mile while proving that he belongs near the head of an older horse group which also includes Game On Dude, winner of his third Santa Anita Handicap in March, and Horse of the Year, Wise Dan, who is currently sidelined following colic surgery.

Kitten’s Joy was represented by his first Grade 1 winner of the year when Ken and Sarah Ramsey’s homebred Real Solution took the Manhattan Handicap, while last year’s Spinaway Stakes heroine Sweet Reason, by Street Sense, returned to form with victory in the Acorn Stakes.

Her success provided the opening leg of a Grade 1 double for Darley sires, which was concluded when Coffee Clique nosed out the former Ed Dunlop-trained Strathnaver in the Just A Game Stakes to become the 11th Grade 1 winner for Medaglia D’Oro.

Dream over: California Chrome is out of shot in fourth as the 1m4f of the Belmont Stakes proved a step too far.

Tonalist, a son of Tapit, was the victor

keeneland library

Keeneland does not only sell horses and run a racetrack as Amy Owens discovers the association houses a pretty extensive thoroughbred library too

I

n Lexington, Kentucky, in 1933, during the dark years of the Great Depression, the Kentucky Association racetrack closed and left the city without a thoroughbred track for the first time in 107 years.

The lack of a racetrack right in the heart of the premier American breeding region troubled a group of thoroughbred breeders and enthusiasts and in order to right that wrong, a committee was put together the following year to engineer a return of racing to Lexington.

The result of their efforts was the Keeneland Association, created as a model race track dedicated solely to the perpetuation and improvement of the sport.

Racing began at Keeneland in October 1936, and today its boutique race meets in April and October offer some of the richest purses and attract some of the largest crowds in North America.

Two other Keeneland institutions soon followed. Keeneland held its first horse sale in April 1938 – in 2013 its four annual sales grossed more than $534 million – and the following year the organisation opened a reference library. It has evolved into one of the world’s largest repositories of information related to the thoroughbred, is open to the public and provides most services for no charge.

Originally located in Keeneland’s clubhouse, the library since 2002 has occupied a specially designed 10,000sq ft home, featuring the limestone façade and tasteful understated décor of the racetrack, sales pavillion and other buildings on Keeneland’s 1,034 acres.

Supported by Keeneland and by donations and gifts-in-kind, the library employs two

keeneland library

A thoroughbred library full-time librarians (a director and head librarian), one full-time archive technician and two part-time assistants.

Each year, the library welcomes more than 3,000 visitors, including racing fans, journalists, writers, college professors, historians and others seeking information for their personal use or for articles, books and other projects, while the staff answers countless phone calls, emails and letters.

Visitors may use public computers, wireless internet, a conference room, and work and study spaces.

“To my knowledge, with the exception of the National Sporting Library in Middleburg, Virginia, we are the only library in this country devoted to the thoroughbred horse that is open to the public and has professional librarians here on a daily basis,” saya head librarian Cathy Schenck, who has worked at the library since 1978.

Perhaps the most well-known book containing information researched on site is Laura Hillenbrand’s 2002 best-seller Seabiscuit: An American Legend, which was made into an Academy Award-nominated movie.

Recent releases with an international appeal include Paul Roberts and Isabelle Taylor’s Racecourse Architecture, an exhaustive look at the history of the architecture at some of the world’s greatest courses. The authors, who are from England, relied on the library for information about Keeneland and Saratoga for the project.

Robert James Turnbull.

In 1939, William Arnold Hanger, a breeder, businessman, philanthropist and book collector, as well as a Keeneland trustee and director, acquired Turnbull’s collection and donated it to Keeneland.

Prominent members of the thoroughbred industry also began donating books and materials for the new library, while Hanger also brokered agreements on additional gifts.

In 1954, the library acquired the collection of Charles Christian Cook, one of the first photographers in the US to specialise in racing and racetrack scenes.

Over 15,000 glass plate negatives focus on the early 1900s to midcentury and include other subjects Cook photographed, namely the Ringling Brothers Circus and his aerial photography in France during World War 1.

Soon to follow was the Bert Morgan collection, which comprises more than 200,000 film negatives of racing, finish and winner’s circle shots from the 1930s through the early 1960s.

No library had been anticipated in the original plans of the organisers of the track, but, as the entire Keeneland picture developed, such a library seemed suitable and appropriate at a racetrack dedicated to the betterment of the sport, wrote Keeneland librarian Amelia King Buckley in 1958 in The Keeneland Association Library: A Guide to the Collection. Buckley oversaw the library from 1953 until retiring in 1978.

Now, 75 years after it was founded, the Keeneland Library continues to carry out Keeneland’s mission to serve and better both the industry and the Central Kentucky community.

The library lends artifacts to area museums, hosts a lecture series with authors of recently released books (including Paul Roberts, writer of Racecourse Architecture) and works to expand the collection and its

availability to the public.

In March, the library held its first sale of approximately 7,000 duplicate books, journals and magazines drawing buyers from five states.

An Ohio bookseller took home 103 boxes of material and through his online store found an interested buyer for several titles living in Germany. The connection is the latest example of the library’s growing global appeal.

In April, the library unveiled Hunting Coat Red Persian Set created by world-renowned glass artist Dale Chihuly. Maker’s Mark, the Kentucky bourbon distiller, presented the piece to Keeneland in April to recognise the 60-year combined history of the two Kentucky icons.

This is a beautiful facility, says director Becky Ryder. It is well maintained. It was extremely thoughtfully designed for the preservation of unique materials.

Keeneland takes a lot of pride in it and keeps it moving and growing. That’s very exciting.

at war In conjunction with the centenary of the start of World War 1, we take a look at the role horses and equine war artists fulfilled in the conflict

ost of us have now all watched, met, marveled and been amazed by Joey, the War Horse puppet hero brought to life by Michael Marengo on the stage, and in film by Stephen Spielberg.

We have now seen and understood better some of the agonies and horrors of World War I as horses and humans battled to survive in the trench lands of rural France as the most caustic, barbaric loss of human and equine life wound its sad four-year path.

It was a period in which the world shook off the shackles of the 19th century and moved into the age of technology – the war an indicator of this transition as battle tactics underwent dramatic change from the use of cavalry and bayonets through to the deployment of tanks, guns, science and the “metal” of modern-day fighting.

The art and propaganda through 19141918 depicted these changes – for the early months of the war, romantic ideals showing the cavalry charging after a fleeing foe were printed in the Illustrated London News.

Artists such as Lucy Kemp-Welch were commissioned by the government to paint

British control of the sea lanes gave it far greater access to offshore equine sources in order to build up an understanding of the nation’s stock.

The German National Stud was developed with a prime goal of providing good quality riding and draught horses for the army – the stallions were available at subsidised rates to mare owners. In the early 1900s the German government spent £190,000 on horse breeding and development, compared to the £40,000 spent by the British government in 1911.

To some extent Britain could get away with the lesser spend – British control of the sea lanes gave it far greater access to offshore equine sources; landlocked Germany was dependent on domestic production. This was to have a significant effect through 1914-1918.

World War 1 looms

As the spectre of a European war emerged, the list of retired officers who had pledged to help with the mobilisation programme all received their telegrams to report to duty on August 3, 1914.

Within a fortnight the zealous officers had increased equine numbers to 165,000, the large haulage companies and municipalities among the major suppliers. However, on occasions prices paid were too high and many unsuitable horses were bought – this was a problem “particularly in Ireland where inexperienced purchasing agents were outwitted by the canny Irish”. [Heard that before...? Ed] Tillings, the London Bus Company, was already busy converting its vehicles to “horseless” carriages, and made fortunes selling on redundant horses to the Remount Service.

The learning curve required to look after so many horses was a steep one, but many experienced horsemen were drafted in for the role – artistic huntsmen, such as Cecil Aldin and Lionel Edwards were typical of those employed.

However, many of those who went to staff

the remount centres were very inexperienced with horses and required educating, Aldin solved the problem by suggesting and employing knowledgeable “hunting” women.

It was almost the first time that women had been given such a role and the newspapers and media were obsessed with the ideas of seeing females getting down and dirty

with the horses. The venture proved to be a huge success, with the Remount Depot at Maidenhead staffed completely by women.

The conditions were horrific with mud so bad that horses, carrying and pulling such heavy loads, were frequently bogged down themselves America becoming the main source for outside supply – a total of 429,000 horses were sent over from the states.

By November 1914, remount delegations were established in Kansas, Denver, St Louis, Chicago and Fort Worth, with purchasing made through firms of dealers.

After purchase at large fairs, horses or mules would be branded, then gathered in groups in large depots and sent to the docks when between 1914 and 1918 a cargo of 500 to 1,000 animals left for Europe every one and a half days. Britain spent £36.5 million in the US, buying horses from the nation’s huge stock of over 21 million farm animals. It cost £10 a head to travel a horse.

The journey took six weeks and was a hazardous affair – on the Atlantic crossing 6,600 horses and mules were lost due to sinking. Horses were particularly prone to “Shipping Fever” caused by lack of movement, poorly ventilated lower decks, and the spread of disease.

But the loss of life in transit was far less than it had been in the Boer War – the lessons learned led to a policy of converting ships to be more suitable for carrying animals, offering more space and better veterinary and feeding arrangements.

With such large numbers of horses billeted in one place, the spread of disease was a particular fear; horses were examined throughly on arrival and any suspected of sickness were left at the docks.

The healthy horses were sent to the large remount depots for acclimatisation, fattening up, as well as for their military pre-training and for mustering ahead of being sent to France. Once again this was a result of lessons learned from the Boer conflict in which horses had been sent immediately into the war zone without any preparation, training or health care.

Ahead of the war the depots could accommodate around 100 horses – necessity saw these vastly extended and new sites developed, which involved huge logistical support.

The Romsey Remount depot eventually accommodated an incredible 5,000 horses over a 50-acre site. This required extensive veterinary back up, housing for horses and humans, as well as methods to ensure that fodder and bedding could be supplied.

Use of the war horse

On the front line, horses were used to pull guns and wagons, take up supplies, maintain

lines of communication, while the “fighting” horses were to wait behind the lines until the artillery and infantry breached enemy positions, allowing the calvary to dash through to cut off escape.

Supplies of equipment, ammunition and food were sent by ship from Britain and were taken by rail to stations around ten to 12 miles from the trenches. The sacks and equipment would then be put onto trucks or light railways to mustering points around five miles from the trenches, when the horses would then take over.

As the roads were in such a poor condition caused by the trench systems, bomb craters, as well as ruined drainage systems and general overuse, horses had to carry out the final section of transit to the trenches as the highways were impassable by the vehicles.

On the rare occasions that the trenches moved their slow path forward, the only transport available and maneuverable enough to be to able to drag the guns to the new positions were horses.

The conditions were horrific and so bad that horses, carrying and pulling such heavy loads, were frequently bogged down. For some the efforts of trying to struggle free were often too much, horses, who were often already weak from overwork and a lack of nutrition, became so weary that they could not pull free – they were either left or shot.

At the end of the Arras offensive of 1917, Gunner Philip Sylvester wrote: “We moved forward, but conditions were terrible. The ammunition that had to be prepared by our leaders for this great spring offensive had to be brought up with supplies, over roads, which were sometimes up to one’s knees in

slimy yellow-brown mud.

“The horses were up to their bellies in mud.

We’d put them on a picket line between the wagon wheels at night and they’d be sunk over their fetlocks the next day. We had to shoot quite a number.”

In the final weeks of the war as the British advanced over old enemy lines and trenches, motor transport was so bogged down that supplies of ammunition and equipment were nearly dependent on horse power.

Horses could “run” for a certain length of time, even on an “empty tank”, and there are many reports, particularly in the Middle East, of the cavalry being unable to water horses for extensive periods.

The static nature of the trench warfare in Europe meant that horses were rendered useless for battle – and were generally deployed later in the war for communications, liasion and raids – however, the prospect of open warfare was never completely ruled out by the generals, and the cavalry was maintained, albeit, as the years passed, at a reduced scale.

The proportion of British soldiers in the cavalry reduced from nine per cent in 1914 to just one per cent in 1918.

Due to the limited use of mounted regiments in battle, frequent calls were made for economies in the use of horses and a government commission looked into replacing horses with motor transport, apparently to the anger of General Haig.

The army defied most attempts at cutbacks and by 1917 the number of horses and mules in service increased from 535,000 in 1915 to 870,000 in 1917.

Food and bandages

Fodder supplies were precious, and the delivery of hay and oats was a major burden on the transport services. It had always been assumed that horses could eat on the “move”, grazing and raiding supplies, but that was a plan that depended on the army being mobile and failed once the battle ground became bogged down in trenches.

Early through the war, artillery man Gunner JW Palmer remembered the difficulties faced in keeping horses fed and watered: “The position over rations for both men and horses was rather precarious. These were the days when we went without rations of any kind or water. The horses were more or less starved of water. On the retreat we went to various streams with our buckets, but no sooner had we got the water halfway back to

them, than we moved again.

“We had strong feelings towards our horses. We went into the fields and beat the corn and oats out of the ears and brought them back, but that didn’t save them. As the days went on, the horse’s belly got more up into the middle of its back, and the cry was frequently down the line: ‘Saddler – and plate and a punch.*” *A saddler was required to punch holes in the girth to keep the saddle on.

In 1917, a fodder crisis threatened to disrupt Allied operations – German submarine activity was restricting supplies from the US, while a poor harvest in Italy lead to low stocks.

The Ministry of Shipping pressed for a reduction in equine consumption, resulting in cuts of 2lb a day in rations, freeing up 500,000 tons of shipping.

Fodder shortages were worse on the German front, the logistic planners underestimating the amount that would be required. Supplies became so limited that sawdust was frequently mixed into rations and many horses died of starvation.

As the war progressed through the later years, the effectiveness of the German army and its horse-drawn transport was questioned and it has been suggested that the successful German spring offensive in 1918 allowed German horses to feast on captured Allied fodder.

The Royal Army Veterinary Corps were responsible for the care of the huge number of injured and sick horses – at times 90,000 war horses were convalescing throughout the world. Mobile veterinary services were attached to each division to care for the injured, while horse-drawn ambulances could evacuate injured survivors. Every horse taken

Battle losses, gunfire and gas poisioning accounted for few of the equine losses, most of the deaths resulting from exhaustion and respiratory and mud-borne disease, though at points equine deaths in warfare could peak – the highest casualties coming in the spring offensive of 1918 when 14,000 horses and mules were killed with a further 22,500 killed in the allied attack of the spring and summer.

cent, primarily due to infection from the tsetse fly.

Through the first winter in France the decision was made to clip many of the horses – but as there were no rugs to keep the horses warm and dry, and the retreat from Mons meant that horses had no shelter in barracks, many horses were lost to pneumonia.

Simple things such as a lack of saddle soap or dubbin led to ongoing problems of saddle sores and pinches, which could mean that an “equine solider” had to be taken off the field of war if the sore became infected or spread further. Soldiers improvised with bacon fat or bully beef.

Around 15 per cent of the animals deployed by the army were killed, died, lost or abandoned each year, however the War Office accepted that “horses were delicate and valuable military assets, which provided excellent service when properly maintained, but soon broke down when neglected as a result of poor training or a false sense of economy.”

The Army created large convalescent horse depots where animals could be taken for treatment and cure. Parasitic conditions, such as lice and mange, were treated with dipping baths, while the disease Glanders, which can spread to humans, was treated for with “Mallein”. By 1918, 1.5 million doses of Mallein had been dished out in France.

The veterinary corps also went to great lengths to educate those who were responsible for the care of the horses. A ten-day course of lectures for both infantry and artillery transport officers was made

obligatory and at its peak it was attended to by up to 40 officers and 300 NCOs a month.

The courses meant that small injuries could be treated on the spot, and serious cases diagnosed earlier.

A chief horse-master was also appointed to every corps and below him, attached to smaller units, were sub-ordinate horsemasters. These men were generally horsemen and gave invaluable advice and knowledge to units in and out of the field. They also helped weed out those soldiers who were incapable or negligent in caring for their animals. Due to these innovations, it meant that a horse or mule with an injury or showing signs of sickness had a 78 per cent chance of recovery, a truly staggering result given that veterinary care was then still in its infancy.

The end of the war horse

The cavalry was never employed in World War 1 at the scale first envisaged – the ranks of Hussars, Lancers and Dragoons proudly left Britain on their beautiful horses only to find that they could not charge across terrain pitted with craters, trenches and barbed wire.

It was a lesson learnt early, but the hopes that the cavalry could produce a final resolution maintained high throughout the war and vast numbers of horses and calvary men were kept in service.

Successes did come and as late as March 1918 the Canadian cavalry charged and routed 100 Germans armed with machine guns. But such action came at a huge loss of equine life – of the 150 horses that went into

war horse the fray, only four survived.

Generally, mounted soldiers were forced off their horses to fight on foot, with the hope that a break in the lines would allow them to rush though on their steeds to claim victory.

It was in Palestine where mounted warfare proved to be much more effective and the Desert Mounted Corps consisted of 20,000 men from various nations.

Water supply was the biggest logisitical problem, with supplies generally only available from deep wells; many of which had been blown up.

On occasions horses had to go without water for 60 hours working in the blazing sun and carrying huge burdens. Battles frequently took place over a town or a watering hole – the Battle of Beersheba became vital for the Allies as the army needed to capture the town before sundown, many of the horses would not have survived the night without water.

When hostilitites relented and the soldiers had some downtime, their horses were brought into play.

In the desert in 1917, a mock race meeting was staged featuring the “Promised Land Stakes”, the “Anza Steeplechase” and a “Jerusalem Scurry” for the mules. Nearly all the horses who had been carrying their solider into battle took part.

Victory down to horse power

Although the importance of the cavalry as a military force declined through World War 1 as mechanisation took over, the successful use of horses by the Allied army played a vitally important part in its victory.

The volume of food and military stores required on the front lines was far greater than any previous battle – trench warfare meaning provisions not only be continually brought to the theatre of war, but supplies had to come from further afield.

And with the army even more dependent on the use of guns, continual and greater supplies of equipment and ammunition was necessary.

Motor transport was still in its infancy, was not reliable, needed engine fuel and could not cope with the terrain that trench warfare created. There was a huge reliance on draught and pack animals and vast sums were spent globally to ensure that the demands were met.

Britain was still then an empire nation and in charge of the seas; she used her colonies to her advantage.

“

...endless columns of horses transported men and materials to the frontline, often in darkness and frequently under fire Horses and mules were treated with greater care than in any other previous war – in 1917, offices informed their troops that a horse’s life was worth more than that of a solider – and veterinary care, disease control and farriery were all carried out to as high a standard as could be expected.

There were few of the heroic charges except in the Middle East, instead endless columns of horses transported men and materials to the frontline, often in darkness and frequently under fire.

With shell-fire constantly buzzing, not only did the horses need to be strong to pull their cargoes, but also steadfast and sure; their natural flight instinct had to extinguished.

It was no wonder that the soldiers and officers, who themselves had to bury a natural desire to run from such an amphitheatre of danger, relied on their horses for emotional support, as well as for the hugely important functions that they served.

Even with the technical advances in place,

at the beginning of World War 2 the dream of cavalry warfare still lived on.

Germany increased its equine reserves, alongside its wider preparations for war, but Britain overhauled and mechanised its regiments – by 1940 only the Cheshire Yeomanry and Queen’s Own Yorkshire Dragoons were left with equine battalions.

By 1942 both regiments, which had been posted in Syria for the early stages of the second war, had their horses removed too.

The Dragoons said goodbye to its equine friends with a four-mile race in which all ranks took part, and concluded with swimming in the Jordan.

The last full scale calvary charge in battle took place in November 1941. The 44th Mongolian Calvary Division galloped head on towards the armed 106th German Infantry and 107th Artillery Division.

When the cavalry were half a mile away the German army opened fire; in ten minutes 2,000 men and horses were dead or dying.

Not one German solider was hurt.

The role of the horse in World War 1 is no longer underestimated due to the War Horse producton.

But, it is still worth us as horsemen, taking the time not only to understand the efforts and sheer logistics of the Remount Service that was able to supply well-trained and suitable horses in such vast numbers for action on the front line, but also the heroic efforts of horse and soldier, relying on each other for survival in the insanity of war.

major foster swetenham

M

ajor Foster Swetenham of the Royal Scot Greys has the sad distinction of being one of the first officers to be killed in action in World War 1, dying near St Quentin in Picardy on

August 28, 1914.

The British Expeditionary Force first encountered the advancing German Imperial forces a week earlier at the Battle Of Mons, August 23-26, 1914.

The BEF attempted to hold the line of the Mons-Conde canal, but, despite inflicting large casualties on the enemy, were forced to retreat due to the numerically superior German army.

The British retreat from Mons lasted two weeks and took them back to Paris until they successfully fought back at the Battle Of Marne.

In a small skirmish at Cerizy, two days after Mons, cavalry regiments fought a rearguard action to help check the German pursuit of the BEF. The action was called the “affair at Cerizy” and was one occasion in the war when classic cavalry manoeuvres were successfully employed.

Major Swetenham was reported to have been killed “as he directed his squadron’s fire”. He is buried in Moy-de-L’Aisne Communal Cemetery, Aisne, France and is commemorated on a war memorial at Kibworth in Leicestershire as well as on a stone tablet in St Mary’s Church, Astbury, Cheshire.

He took into battle his fabulous hunter and charger Robert, the pair are shown here at barracks in York (left).

Robert was an equine legend of his time having won the Military Race for the Royal Scots Greys, “The Grey Horse race”, with Major Swetenham riding, an amazing four years in succession.

Bottom left, shows him finishing second in 1914, but he is awarded the race after the winner Spitfire was disqualified by the stewards. This race took place in April, just four months before Major Swetenham and Robert left for France.

Born June 21,1876 at Cam-yr-Alyn, Rossett, Denbighshire, Foster Swetenham joined the Scots Greys as a 2nd Lieutenant in December 1896. He also served in the Boer War, including at the relief of Kimberly in January 1890, which had beeen held under siege since the previous autumn.

After Major Swetenham’s death in those opening salvos of World War 1, Robert was shipped back home from France and retired from active service.

Robert’s legendary record lived on and, 34 years later, when Major Swetenham’s grandson was riding to hounds, on being introduced to a stranger he was asked if he was related to the former owner of Robert!

equine war artists 1914

Equine war artists: 1914 Accomplished horse artists Lionel Edwards, Cecil Aldin Alfred Munnings and Edwin Noble all did their bit for the war effort

A

number of equine and countryside artists found themselves in various forms of service through WW1.

Edwin Noble, who was mainly known for his work illustrating Aesops Fables, worked with the Royal Veterinary Corp and was also employed as an official war artist, his sketches and diagrams used to illustrate some of the work undertaken by the corps, while the great artist Alfred Munnings, who had lost the sight in an eye, Cecil Aldin and Lionel Edwards joined the Remount Service, the latter two being too old for the front line.

Edwards was born a lover of hunting and rural sports was a passion he inherited from his father Dr James Edwards, whose working life was a mere means to finance his huntin’, fishin’ and shootin’.

Edwards’s talented son flipped the coin: his artistic ability ensuring that for much of his life, with only the war intervening, hunting provided him with a means to make a profitable livelihood.

Edwards was the youngest of James’s children and was born in 1878 at Clifton near to Bristol from the good Dr’s third marriage to Harriet Maine.

His early childhood was spent in the hills of Wales and Edwards himself acknowledged that his true love of hunting and animals was embraced through these years. As early as a five-year-old the young artist was sketching and drawing – his first picture was of a huntsman and a single hound, an image later given to Jack Gilbey.

Life as an artist was not seen as a respectable thing for “gentle folk” of the time, however Edwards’s mother, as reported by

“Rails” and “Returning Home”: two from a set of six original Lionel Edwards prints published by Lawrence and Jellicoe, circa 1910

the artist himself, was “sufficiently strongminded to overcome Victorian prejudices and let me study at art school.”

He joined Frank Calderon’s school of animal painting in Baker Street, which had a brilliant reputation; it also ran the school in Midhurst that taught Aldin, eight years Edwards’s senior.

By the time Edwards reached his early 20s, he was renting a studio from a cousin, had bought himself a horse for £15 and would ride out in Rotten Row most mornings. It was not unusual then to be able to hack to hunt in some of the southern hunt countries and Edwards frequently made such trips out of town.

In 1898 Edwards was elected to the London Sketch Club and at 20 was easily the youngest member – the leading light of the time being Aldin.

Edwards also began to provide images for the press, his first regular stock of work being commissioned by Country Life magazine, a publication for which he worked for much of his life.

He started travelling with his mother and family to visit different hunting countries and he sold his first staghunting picture from a small exhibition in Porlock having been hunting with his brother – the sales of pictures paying for the trip.

In 1903, Edwards moved out of London and the following year travelled to Oxfordshire with landscape painter Harry Spence, the first person whom Edwards felt was able to “make me really use my eyes.”

“Most of us think we can see, so long as we don’t have to wear glasses,” added Edwards, “but it is not so, and Spencer quickly disabused me of that idea. Remarkably few people are observant… still fewer seem to be able to see colour, except in its most rudimentary form.”

Edwards had begun to find his heaven – ride all day to hounds, capture the scenes on his sketch pads and then transfer to canvasses. It was an accomplishment that he could achieve better than anyone else.

Edwards married Ethel Ashness Wells, a

keen hunting lady and one of harshest critics of her husband’s work. They moved to live in Radley, near Oxfordshire and without the funds to buy horses of their own “borrowed” from a friend.

“It meant, of course, that everything was done on the cheap,” reported the artist. “No groom to take over dirty and tired horses at the end of the day, but cleaning horses and tack ourselves, and no bath or tea until we had finished. It was hard work, but it was worth it. I had no studio, but worked in an old carpenter’s shop, which had no light, only a large side window.”

Much of Edwards’s years ahead of the war focussed on incorporating a style of equine painting that conveyed the correct movement of horse as revealed by the new technology of photography.

The artist freely admitted that he found it a challenge to produce what was being seen from still photography, a single static moment in time, and merge that with an impression of speed and movement.

“The advent of photography has been both a boon and a curse to the artist,” he concluded.

“It has shown him the errors his forefathers committed in depicting movement, but it has bound him to a convention equally incorrect, since the motions depicted by camera are not what we see, being a record of movement much too fast for the human eye to follow; yet he is compelled to use these instantaneous positions, because the public, seeing in the illustrated press nothing but these, will not accept from the artist an imaginary action of his own. It follows that the artist must make the best of a bad job, and try to find positions in instantaneous photography that do suggest speed and ignore the rest.”

By 1909, Edwards had happily settled into the pattern of his hunting and artistic life and was receiving a stream of commissions from Country Life, The Graphic and The Sphere.

The couple, by then with a family, moved back to Wales, where an average hack to a meet was 16 miles, the horse covering 32 miles of road work in one day – in addition to its day’s hunting!

Edwards’s first brush with war came as he and his wife hacked to a Flint And Denbigh Hunt meet in April 1914, the couple coming across a horseman consulting a map. They discovered that he was a Remount officer

Aldin was appointed purchasing officer for Berkshire, and his hunting connections proved invaluable to both identify useful horses and persuade their owners to part with them. Aldin also set a good example by handing over the hunt’s horses.

The purchased horses were put into four categories: R1 – suitable for the cavalry and officers chargers, R2 – smaller horses for riding, HD – for heavy draft work and LD –

for light draft work.

Aldin was assisted by Munnings, later to become President of the Royal Academy, but also an expert horseman. Due to the loss of an eye he could not go to war and chose to work with horses rather than go with a labour battalion to France. Apparently he proved a dab hand at treating “mangy” animals and spent much of his time looking for skin issues and applying a “foul smelling oily mixture” supplied by the War Office.

Edwards was based at Romsey Depot and he reported that he was very happy with his original batch of staff being generally grooms, ex-cavalry men, jockeys and stable lads, but found difficulties as time went on and his better staff was called up for service.

Aldin solved his own staffing problem by first employing his family and then women.

His wife Rita and daughter Gwen helped him with the cleaning and feeding of the horses, but, with most of the hunt staff away at the war, the work load proved too much and when he tried to recruit local men he found they knew nothing about horses and were neither young nor fit enough for such work.

Aldin realised that there were many women around who were expert horsewomen so he began to hire them to help out, giving them a week’s trial before appointing them as stable hands and riders.

There were many more applicants than jobs, so Aldin decided to experiment with an all female Remount Depot, which he set up near Maidenhead and opened in September 1915.

“Although many other remount establishments subsequently employed women,” Aldin wrote proudly. “I was the first to use women in this war work. At one period I had over 100 ladies employed in my stables.

I had very few failures… my difficulty, and the difficulty of my head woman, being chiefly to watch that their ‘strappers’ did not overwork and make themselves ill.”

Edwards sketched throughout the war, continually sending in articles and sketches to the Country Life, but he had to put his paint brushes to one side through those years, though he freely admitted that the lack of painting practise “freshened” his outlook.

In 1918, he illustrated Captain Sidney Galtrey’s work entitled “The Horse In War”, while Munnings provided the images for “My Horse Warrior” written by General Jack Seely.

Equine war artists: 2014

We meet artist Sarah Clegg and sculptor Amy Goodman, who have both embarked on personal journeys with equine WW1 commissions

T

he world may have moved into a sphere of global technology, IT, 3-D TV and immediate news services, but some things do remain the same – art and sculpture really is the only medium with which to sympathetically commemorate and remember the people and events which have changed the world.

One hundred years after the start of World War 1 equine artist Sarah Clegg and equine sculptor Amy Goodman have become involved in two very different projects recognising the

loss and sacrifice made by men and horses through the four years of horror.

Goodman, who is based at Project Workshops in Hampshire, won a commission to produce a life-size War Horse sculpture to remember the thousands of horses and mules sent into battle in France and the Middle East from the Romsey Remount Depot, while Clegg has embarked on a series of paintings to be used commercially on souvenir mugs and ceramics to be stocked in the British Museum, the Imperial War Museum and the Tate Museum.

For both artists the work and in-depth research has been pivotal and encompassing, and for both the work by the war artists of 1914-18, particularly finding Lionel Edwards and Lucy Kemp-Welch, inspiring.

“It has been my life for a while and it has been an honour to be involved,” says Goodman, whose life-size horse and trooper is about six months away from finish. “I have been shocked and overwhelmed by the lovely

responses I have had from the public when they have seen the piece. I even had people crying when they saw it – in a good way, the work touching a nerve, some family history.”

Clegg’s research took her down her own route of family discovery. “My grandfather was left for dead for three days in no man’s land after the Battle of Passchendaele on August 22, 1917 – I have visited the exact spot where he fell. He was rescued by an English-speaking German solider, who got him something to drink and later had him stretchered off the battle field over 3m of heavily churned ground. It was an extraordinary act of kindness in the midst of the war. He was treated in a field hospital

equine war artists 2014 before transferring to a main ward off the front line and then became a prisoner of war in Germany.

“My grandmother, who was a member of the Women’s Army Auxiliary Corps in Rouen, went to find him,” recounts Clegg. “This commission has taken me through a whole experience, set me on a journey and I have really enjoyed doing it.”

It was through a friend that Clegg was asked to design the set of mugs. On receiving the dimensions for the images, which was really a strip to place around the mugs, she decided to paint two images, a front and a back, for the first – Duty Bound and Duty Served was created.

“I wanted to tell the story of a man and horse going to war, leaving the viewer to question whether they survived together,” she explains.

“Duty Bound 1914 shows the solider setting out to go to war and I wanted to portray that he knew what he had to face ahead of him I wanted his eyes to have that ‘100-yard’ stare.

He knows what’s coming, but he has his bond with his horse.

“Duty Served 1917 shows the two friends but they are worn, the colour is faded, his hair is grey, and I have left it up to the viewer to decide whether the solider is alive or dead, is he just a ghost whom the horse is remembering?”

“

I thought a lower-ranking trooper would be more poignant, would reach more people, these were the ones who had sacrificed everything for this country

Both artists chose to use soldiers, the “every man” for their pieces rather than glamorous cavalry officers.

“I thought a lower-ranking trooper would be more poignant, would reach more people, these were the ones who had sacrificed everything for this country,” says Goodman.

“My first sketch was based on ‘Pals’ by Lionel Edwards and I wanted my piece to show the bond between horse and human, the harmony and affection the two have for each other.

“I hope my sculpture shows the enduring bond through the hardship of war; the trooper’s broken arm is a symbol of what they have been through, the horse has lost condition. The trooper offering his hand is sign of the gentle interaction between them.”

Getting the tack and the military kit of the day exactly right was a priority for both, for as Goodman says “it is a symbolic piece and while I have the artistic integrity to do what I feel is right, I also have to get things respectfully right.

“I want to produce something and everything has to be in the right place, the tack, the buckles, the straps, the browband have all got to be exactly the right size, shape, dimensions, and in the right place, but I want to give it a sculptural flourish, I don’t

“

You wear your heart on your sleeve and you open yourself up to lots of criticism want everything to be perfect and pristine. I don’t want it to just be a 3-D image, I want it to have life as a sculpture, that’s the balance I have to find.”

The pair collaborated at times on the finer points of military equine hard-wear, but also enlisted the help of such as the Household Cavalry and the King’s Troop, as well as history societies, the re-enactment groups, and The Association for Military Remembrance aka ‘The Khaki Chums”, a group of historians who study in detail the day-to-day detailed lives of soldiers.

Clegg has the next in the series to complete and will feature a war dog. “I have been given the opportunity through my photographer friend to use a real live hero war dog as my model: Treo is a beautiful black Labrador and he won the Dickon medal for his work as a bomb disposal search dog in Afganistan.

Using him as my main model would be serendipitous, and would also honour him as a serving dog.

“I would love then to do some battle scenes, but that is a big challenge – there are so many contemporary photographs, they are familiar images, and I don’t want to produce a straight copy.”

about her art, working to commissions to pay her bills rather than seeking the unpaid glory of exhibition work, but even she admits that once she has a bank of paintings in stock that it might be poignant to put together an exhibition of her war work.

Goodman’s war horse will be unveiled next spring on the centenary of the opening of the remount depot.

“My colleague Robyn Golden-Hann, a brilliant stone mason and engraver, is to inscribe the plinth and I want to make sure that we choose our words very carefully just to bring home how many were lost, bring home what happened.

“When making a memorial, the site has to be well thought out, there has to be landscaping around it, you can’t just ‘plonk’ down a sculpture, it has got be considered.

We have had regular meetings in Romsey town hall – there are lots of other people involved, the planning has got to go through, the council has to make decisions, these things have to be approved, it takes time.

“And by not rushing me, and not rushing the whole project, hopefully we will get a better result. I have got to know the committee really well and it has become a lovely collaborative project.”

Goodman admits that she has been astounded by the help, enthusiasm and passion of those others who have been involved with the project, it is a sentiment wholeheartedly echoed by Clegg.

The Romsey war horse involved an intense effort of community fundraising, Goodman’s maquettes themselves also being sold to help raise funds, while even the local brewery got involved – Romsey’s Flack Manor Brewery launching a commemorative ale called The Romsey War Horse.

Sarah Clegg:

the late starter bringing a business brain to match her artistic talents

C

legg’s life as an artist did not begin until she was 35, redundancy leading her down a path she had never seriously considered.

“Although I drew a lot as a child, I didn’t train as an artist and I never dreamt that I would be an artist or make a living from it.

“I used to work at a National Trust property, specialising in history and education, and on occasions I would illustrate a few teachers’ packs.

“When I was made redundant, I had a wealthy friend, you know, one who had absolutely everything and I had not got a clue what to get for Christmas. Two days before – I don’t know where it came from – I decided to paint a watercolour of their daughter, I still don’t know why I thought it, I hadn‘t painted since I was 15!” laughs Clegg.

“They were thrilled with it, and someone else said ‘can you do one for us?’, and they had lots of horses and dogs too, and that sort of got the ball rolling. It has always been horses and dogs since.

Before I knew it I was working all the time, working to commissions, not a lot of exhibition pieces, which is sort of the other way around to most, but I have to pay the bills, I have to have money coming in.”

Days are now often spent out with the Cheshire and Forest Hunts, following shoots or painting dogs, the three facets making up the bulk of her work.

“Thinking back it is ironic, when I was a child all I wanted to do was a draw a horse as well as my mother – she can still sketch a horse straight off the top of her head far better than I can,” smiles Clegg.

“Mum had horses when younger, before we started to move around the world, and I was ponyobsessed as a child, so despite all the education, academics and the working life – I am going back to when I was six!”

The business side of life, which so many artists struggle with, is not something that Clegg finds offputting to deal with, in fact she relishes it.

equine war artists 2014 “I can always find time to talk to clients and do a bit of selling.... I know this sounds this sounds awful, but I am not a painter who is ‘driven’ to do art, it is a business for me. Making me paint is sometimes like getting blood out of a stone, I’d far rather do the business side of it, but once I’m ‘in the zone’, it all makes sense.

“It is a highly stressful job and sometimes it really does not feel like pleasure, especially when you are driven to be a bit of a perfectionist and you want to deliver the best for people; it is stressful.

“You wear your heart on your sleeve and you open yourself up to lots of criticism, but I am happy now with my standard and ability to deliver, though any artist who is over confident is usually doomed to failure,” says a realistic Clegg, adding: “Everything you do is learning curve, you learn all the time and you can only develop, improve and mature.

“It is only now that I have got to being confident enough to do human portraiture, it is the pinnacle of art as it is the hardest thing in the world to do, to Waiting for duty

catch a likeness in a face or personality in a picture.”

Clegg is not an admirer of the hyper-realistic, almost photographic style, that seems to be in vogue amongst artists.

“I can’t see the point in painting in that manner,” she says reproachfully. “It means you don’t re-interpret and put something of yourself into it, a painting should say more than a photo.

“Many artists like myself work from photos of course, but some are not very careful about the images they choose, and contrary to people’s belief, the camera always lies.

“It see things not as the human eyes sees them, the human eye does not see everything in focus, only what it is looking at is in focus “In addition to that, issues such as foreshortening and distortion of perspective in photography mean that a great photo doesn’t necessarily make a great painting. I prefer to work from my own photos and have now developed a secondary career as an equine photographer.”

She tries as far as possible to “meet” her models.

“You need to capture soul – when you meet that animal, when have physical contact, there is some sort of psychological interaction, a bond that develops, somehow it definitely transfers through the brush; it is almost like magic!”

Amy Goodman:

a love of art and animals

A

rt and animals were always on the agenda for Goodman, who has always been intrigued by nature as well as the movement and anatomy of animals. She graduated in 1997, and after several years working on her sculpture, an opportunity arose to work outside of art in France.

While Goodman admits that her time as “serious” artist began once she had relocated to Hampshire and Project Workshop in 2008, while she was in France doing art part-time, she completed the “not so tiny” commission of six lifesize footballers for Manchester United!

“Coming to be based at Project Workshop,” smiles Goodman, “and paying for the expensive premises rather helped focus my mind! Judy Boyt, whom I see as a mentor and is very inspiring and very helpful, recommended that I came here.

“The space seemed cavernous and I wasn’t sure I could afford it, but I knew I could work here and I’d have to find a way to make it work – here I am six and a half years later.

“The environment here is perfect for working. I am surrounded by inspiring and talented people; it so much better than working completely on your own where you can get sad and depressed.

“Yes, can shut yourself away in your studio, but if you want some advice and a coffee, then you know that someone is around, that others go through the same, having struggles; and we’ve all got to pay the bills.”

As for any self-employed person, let alone an artist, Goodman has experienced the highs and lows of both a business person and one with creative talents.

“I have had lots of knock backs and disappointments, just the same as anyone trying to make a living or be self-employed, you’ve got to be creative but at the same time trying to pay the bills,

“

I am grateful to do this as a job and whenever anyone buys a piece of my work I still think ‘gosh that’s amazing!’

but I think that pushes you,” admits Goodman.

“In 2009 it was very financially difficult and I thought I would have to leave here, but again that pushed me, in fact, made me find resources that I didn’t know that I had... and I am still here.

“I am grateful to do this as a job and whenever anyone buys a piece of my work I still think ‘gosh that’s amazing!’ But it is also a job, and I can’t ever let myself forget that, but it’s a lovely thing to do and when it works it is the nicest job in the world.

“It is part of me so sometimes it doesn’t feel Angel for like work, it does become Winchester all-consuming and it is difficult for University me to get away, which is hard for people around me.”

In 2012 Goodman, current artist in residence at Winchester University, undertook the Pegasus project of three Flying Horse Sculptures which leap out into the street at Flying Horse Walk Arcade in Nottingham, but her ambition was always to complete a life-size horse.

“In the last couple of years through the opportunities and commissions I am beginning to get,” she says, “ it has felt like a natural progession.

“At the same time I am learning all the time and I am getting great advice from the people around me. There has been pressure – it’s a weird mix of feelings – while I have the insecurity that you always carry as an artist, I have felt for a long time that I am capable of doing this.

“I have been around horses all my life, there is an intuitive feeling as to how horses are put together and how they are when they are resting, changes how they shift and balance – it is lovely to work at this size.

“I wanted to have a rested leg with the war horse to show tiredness, and, so that affects how the saddle sits on the horse – all of that needs a feeling and touch.”

sea workshop

Outside learning “

The art workshops are all about friendship, support, learning and inclusion,” summarises Debbie Burt, chairwoman of the Society of Equestrian Artists when standing in a Berkshire field on a sunny Sunday afternoon in June watching ten students grappling with the intricacies of getting green, well, green, and horses looking like horses.

The two-day workshop was being run by the SEA and is one of a number organised through the year by the art group, in addition to a week-long residential course, which was based this year in the West Country.

The workshops give the students a chance to sketch, paint and sculpt a life horse model rather than a static image from a photograph under the tutelage of two established artists – on the day we joined the group, equestrian artist Michelle McCullagh and landscape painter Colin Allbrook, who has helped out on these days for over 20 years, were offering their words of wisdom. Both are full members of the society and see the time as a chance to give their “bit” back.

“It makes a huge difference being able to paint a horse from life,” explains McCullagh, who was experiencing a first herself being on a debut teaching mission. “It gives everyone much more of a chance to see how a horse is put together, more of a feeling of the animal, see how the horse moves.”

The day’s life model was ex-racehorse 17-year-old Knowhow, a resident at HEROS rehoming charity, where the class was taking place. An endlessly patient model, he acquired white markings to reveal his bone structure (dark bay being ideal canvass material) and a stance to show off those former racing muscles.

www.internationalthoroughbred.net

We join an equine art workshop organised by the Society of Equestrian Artists and held at HEROS “When he walks, the markings lets the artists see what is happening, understand the movement,” says Burt. “They then can go up to him and feel his bones, touch his sides – it is all incredibly helpful for an understanding of the equine form.”

The day’s students had a wide range of interests and abilities from complete starters to devotees. There was Diana Roe, who is hoping to embark on a future as a professional equine artist, to Mia Sarosi, wanting to improve the work she does on her pots that give her a part-time income, to a horse enthusiast and hobby painter just wanting to do things a bit better and taking the chance to enjoy an afternoon outside on the HEROS farm. For members of the SEA the day costs £40, and it is a tenner extra for non-members.

“We offer one ‘bursary’ on each workshop for anyone who applies and has impressed Top, tutor Michelle McCullagh gives Chris, who works at HEROS and was with Knowhow for much of the morning, a quick lesson on the basics of equine drawing.

us with their work and is looking to make art something of their occupation,” says Burt. “Diane is today’s receipent – she sent in some work to be judged, along with a short “mission” statement. We also pay for one person on our week course, the funding coming from the kind donations by Lord Vestey and Denford Stud.”

Some of the workshop work may make its way to the SEA London exhibition in September to show work in progress, and the workshops are something that Burt hopes the SEA will be able to develop further.

“We have got together with BHEST and had a couple of days with students of around 13 -15 years of age, painting at Wolverhampton racecourse. We have a day booked in at the World Horse Welfare centre and a day at Tom Dascombe’s stables, both days will allow the students to get up close and personal with the horses, which was obviously restrictive on a racecourse.

“We had a family weekend at the museum, which was very successful, and in association with the National Horse Racing Museum development are hoping to do a lot more – we should have access to ‘wet’ and ‘dry’ classroom areas and are hoping to offer adult education classes, with focuses on techniques such as watercolour painting or using oils.”

But it is getting out and about which Burt finds is so important for the students, the experience of painting in the field allowing the delegates the opportunity not only to paint horses, but also work on their landscape techniques, the horse being part of an overall vista. On the residential course in Somerset that backdrop can be farmland, moorland or a coastal scene.

“We really hope that the workshops will become an integral part of what the SEA offers artists and our members,” explains Burt, busy using the day as an opportunity to sculpt herself. “It gives the students the opportunity to not only learn from our tutors, but also from each others’ struggles, see different approaches to solving problems, discuss technical aspects of painting as well as share materials and network with each other.

“We can’t thank HEROS enough for welcoming us here and offering up the horses, farm and staff for us for the weekend and we hope to go back there next year in August for three days.

“We have donated some work to their charity auction, which is part of their Summer Ball on September 13.”

n triumphing in his second consecutive King’s Stand Stakes (G1) at Royal Ascot, Sole Power has carved out his own piece of history by becoming the first horse this century to win backto-back runnings of the 5f sprint.

To find the last horse to make that achievement, one must go back to Gold Bridge in 1934, and Sole Power is only the seventh horse to win consecutive runnings since 1860, although several have won the race twice, albeit not in consecutive years.

Sole Power is now the winner of nine of his 41 starts, including three Group 1s, and over £1.3m in earnings. The gelding first sprang to prominence when recording a 100-1 shock

The distaff side of Sole Power’s pedigree is pure Juddmonte, featuring both mares and stallions bred by Prince Khalid Abdullah’s operation.

The winner of four of her six starts at two, Metair went on to claim three more victories as a three-yearold, including a win in the Listed Hackwood Stakes at Newbury. Two outings at four produced no further successes and the mare was retired to the small stud her owner had established in Surrey.

In May 1979, Prince Khalid Abdullah celebrated his first winner as an owner when Charming Native won at Windsor. At the same time, the Prince was also started laying the foundations of what would become the current mighty bloodstock empire, spanning several countries, with the purchase of mares advised by Cottrill.

This included buying the seven-time winner Metair, in foal to Sharpen Up, who was one of nine mares to appear in the first Juddmonte stud book in 1980. The cross with Sharpen Up was a speedy mating which duly produced a colt named Fine Edge.

Fine Edge secured his own place in the Juddmonte history books becoming the stud’s first homebred winner when winning his first start as a two-year-old at Newmarket during the Guineas meeting. The colt went on to win another two of his starts and was also second in what was then called the William Hill Sprint Championship at York, later to

be named the Nunthorpe. Fine Edge was eventually sold to South Africa for stud duty, where he died in 2002.

Fine Edge assured his dam a vaulted place in the Juddmonte story, but he was just one of nine winners she produced, including the best of her brood, Tychonic. That son of Last Tycoon was trained by Barry Hills to win a maiden at Pontefract at two, but was frustrating at three when seven starts yielded one further success and four minor places.

Much better was to come however, when he was sent to race in the US where he won a brace of Grade 2s at Santa Anita, as well as a pair of Listed stakes at Hollywood Park. The colt remained in California for stud duty, but did not make a significant impact.

M

etair’s daughters also provided some valuable additions to the Juddmonte broodmare band, including Fast Flow, a mare out of Metair’s unplaced daughter Meteoric. By Riverman, Fast Flow is the dam of Auction House, winner of the Champagne Stakes (G2) at Doncaster in 1998, and later a useful sire at Llety Farms in Wales until his death in 2011.

By the time Tychonic was proving his mettle at Santa Anita, Metair was nearing the end of her breeding career. Her last three progeny were all sired by the Juddmonte homebred stallion Warning, and included a filly born in 1991 who was named Merida.

The filly carried the Juddmonte colours in both France and America, winning twice, and was given her chance at stud where she

produced four minor winners. These included Como (Cozzene) who won two small races for her owner-breeder in the care of Roger Charlton, and went on to produce Pencil Hill (Acclamation), winner of the Listed Marble Hill Stakes in 2007 and fourth behind Henrythenavigator in the Coventry Stakes (G2).

The year before foaling Como, Merida had produced a filly by another Juddmonte sire in Distant View, who was named Demerger.

The filly never made it to the races and was offered at the Tattersalls December Mares Sale in 2000 as an unplaced three-year-old.

Demerger was snapped up for the bargainbasement price of just 4,000gns, with Hedsor Stud signing the docket on behalf of the Australian-born breeder Geoff Russell.

The first foal out of the mare that Russell sold was an Inchinor colt purchased by Peter Doyle at the 2003 DBS St Leger Yearling Sales for 16,000gns. Runner-up in the Cornwallis Stakes (G3) as a juvenile, Cornus went on to become one of the most hard-working horses in training, racing 158 times and winning 15 with a further 32 placings before he eventually retired in 2013 at the age of 11.

Sole Power was the third foal out of Demerger, and like his siblings before him, he was offered at DBS where he was bought for £32,000 by his future trainer at the Premier Yearling Sales in 2008.

Sotka, a five-year-old full-brother to Sole Power, had five starts in France for owner Zalim Bifov, for one win and a second in a Listed race at Vichy over 5f. He was bought as a yearling by Con Marnane for 100,000gns.

This year’s three-year-old, Crafty Exit by Mastercraftsman, is so far unplaced in three starts (two this year) for trainer William Knight having been bought for 48,000gns from New England Stud.

Demerger’s curent two-year-old by Exceed And Excel was purchased by Mark Johnston at Book 2 of the Tattersalls October Yearling Sale for 62,000gns, while the mare also has a Poet’s Voice yearling filly.
