nothing short of brilliant in four racecourse outings last season , the only horse to lower his colours was captain cee bee when he still emerged with huge credit as runner up in the supreme novices’ hurdle .
sublimity ' s route to a second champion hurdle crown in march will probably need to go through binocular , currently the hot favourite for the race at around 6 - 4 . hennessy ' s horse is still a 10 - 1 chance — though he will surely be shorter if he wins tomorrow — and the trainer is in no doubt where the value lies .

the horse is now 11 years old and has had his fair share of problems so we would love to finish him up while he is still in relatively good shape . he will spend his retirement with us and his days will be kept busy as a work partner and lead horse . it is important to keep him active because while his body might not be at its best shape , his mind is very sharp .
perhaps , but maybe not quite yet , because the second winner of hennessy ' s training career could well arrive in a grade one too . sublimity is the second - favourite for the toshiba irish champion hurdle at leopardstown tomorrow , which will be his prep race before an attempt to become only the second horse — after comedy of errors — to regain the hurdling championship at cheltenham .

the pastor of st . boniface now celebrates the 8 : 00am sunday mass in shaw instead of sublimity . the st . boniface mixed choir continues to inspire at the 10 : 00am sunday mass in sublimity , but without their 8 : 00am mass , the st . boniface men ' s choir , active since the 1930s , is reduced to part time service at saturday evening vigil masses .
when bill hennessy paid 32 , 000 guineas for a horse called sublimity at the newmarket sales in 2004 , he was more interested in his form on the flat than the fact his name means
nobility in thought , feeling or style
. it proved to be a worthy name for a champion here yesterday , though , as the seven - year - old won the champion hurdle by three lengths having travelled with exceptional ease throughout the race .
sublimity and won in the dark were powerfully joining issue at that stage , but once again sizing europe was travelling better still . just as at cheltenham , however , the candle would abruptly flicker and die , as though a bitter wind had flung open the window . suddenly he was running on the spot , and instead sublimity was followed through by an apparent interloper in won in the dark .
1863 - sublimity elementary school officially became district no . 7 , with 110 students . the term was extended from three months to five months , and teachers were paid $ 20 . 00 monthly .
1912 - october , after several large fires , the city of sublimity formed the sublimity fire department . the fire department acquired one a . g . long # 10 chemical fire engine that had a 45 gallon tank , two wagon style wheels , two kerosene lanterns , an axe and a crowbar . information as to the leadership of the department is sketchy , however g . h . bell was president at its formation . many names still common to current sublimity appear on the early rosters , such as zuber , ditter , etzel , ripp , susbauer , kintz , riesterer , and welter .
no admission charge . learn about sublimity ' s history , and maybe even your own family genealogy , through archived documents , photos and conversation with knowledgeable volunteer staff . coffee and cookies always available .
the ante - post betting suggests that there could well be another imminent victory for the visitors as the bill hennessy - owned sublimity is the 4 / 1 market leader for a follow - up .
- “this is the new way of trading horses . i put up my horse for sale and she was sold in 2 days ! this is definitely the way things are going and it’s definitely the way forward to sell horses . ” tom mullins – trainer
what’s even more remarkable is that binocular might face his biggest challenge for hurdling’s greatest prize from a horse who stands in the same yard – punjabi . you could say henderson isn’t so much facing an embarrassment of riches in this department as wallowing in them .
fairytales can still come true , even today when the most promising jumpers change hands for anything up half - a - million pounds . sublimity , a lightly - raced ex - flat horse , who had been backed at 599 - 1 several months ago , landed yesterday ' s smurfit kappa champion hurdle at cheltenham to give the supremely - confident jockey philip carberry , perhaps the lowest - profile member of the famous irish racing family , his first festival winner .
therefore the horse carrying my cash at 9 / 1 each way with coral will be bottom weight seven is my number – he’ll have no issues with the ground and badly needs a penalty to get into the weights for his various possible festival assignments next week .
carberry was always travelling well just in behind the front two and when he asked his mount to quicken , sublimity shot up the final incline to win by three lengths with afsoun a further neck away .
bill van handel had purchased property northeast of sublimity near triumph road . his oldest daughter , mary , stayed with relatives in verboort while the new home place was prepared for the family . early one summer morning , all by herself , mary left for sublimity in the buggy shown with jesse , who was a fast walker . after about 75 miles they arrived at the crossroads of the sublimity / silverton silver creek roads . jesse balked and refused to continue straight east . it was near sunset and mary was very concerned , then remembered her dad saying if jesse ever gave any trouble , to
let him have his head .
she loosened the reins and he turned south to sublimity and they soon arrived safely , after dark at the new homesite . ( photo and story thanks to joe spenner . )
1940s - sublimity got a new municipal water system , a new grade school , two general stores , a building supply store , and a tavern . wheat , oats , and barley were major crops .
sublimity joined the leaders at the final flight and scooted right away to win in impressive fashion , ensuring philip joined siblings paul and nina in the record books having won a race at the showpiece meeting .
philip carberry - - who partnered dublin owner bill hennessy ' s gelding to success a year ago - - was again aboard sublimity and expressed himself very happy with the way his mount asserted his superiority .
effective 10 / 1 / 2009 , a completed all - breeds declaration form must accompany all breed or performance registry papers for a horse to be declared for the usdf all - breeds program . the all - breeds declaration form is located on the usdf web site .
thanks to joe spenner , this fine logging scene is at gale creek near verboort , oregon with wm . vanhandel on the right , before settling in sublimity , after perhaps traveling with these oxen to oregon .
2010 in may the unused old municipal water tower was finally cut up and trucked away in pieces , a landmark not likely to be much missed . for years sublimity has shared a water system with stayton .
1860s - sublimity had been bustling when the civil war broke out . it had a chinese laundry , five stores , a gun maker ' s shop , public school , college , methodist church , united brethren church , hotel , post office , public well and a furniture shop . some say sublimity was as large then as it is now . the civil war caused a severe decline in sublimity ' s population as settlers returned to their native states to fight , dissension over slavery being intense . the town became deserted ; the college closed but reopened in 1865 at the end of the war . it closed permanently in 1870 .
if robbie hennessy was ever going to give it a go as a racehorse trainer , this was the year to do it , this year when he could have a high profile horse , a champion hurdle winner , who would draw media attention like a blooming rose draws bees . it wasn’t easy on john carr . it’s not often that you win a champion hurdle with a horse and then lose him from the yard the following year . but there was no falling out between carr and the hennessys . it was just one of those things .
1904 - a new rural postal route began from sublimity to silver creek falls . 1905 - in the stayton mail : rural mail carrier b . s . branch went to the fair and brought back a wife .
with 6 - 4 favorite detroit city well back in the field of 10 , philip carberry kept 16 - 1 shot sublimity behind the two front runners until they approached the end of the 2 - mile race .
sublimity had been backed ( including by his trainer ) at odds as big as 600 / 1 on the betting exchanges and started at just 16 / 1 having been well backed by the public in recent weeks .
2009 vera boedigheimer , our dear friend passed away on may 12 . at the spring event of the oregon catholic historical society held at st . boniface archives & museum in sublimity , it was my privelege to announce :
thanks to wikipedia for explaining the three - year - old is named after a greek mountain – “one celebrated by hesiod because two springs sacred to the muses were located here : the aganippe and the hippocrene , both of which bear “horse” ( ? ? ? ? ? hippos ) in their toponym . in a related myth , the hippocrene spring was created when the winged horse pegasus aimed his hoof at a rock , striking it with such force that the spring burst from the spot . on helicon too was the spring where narcissus was inspired by his own beauty” .

the 599 - 1 was taken on the betting exchanges - some of it by the horse ' s trainer john carr - and the 66 - 1 with the bookmakers started disappearing before sublimity was seen on a track this season - in a small hurdle race at navan at the end of january . he hacked up that day by 20 lengths , but so lacking was that race in quality , many dismissed the performance out of hand . it was deemed to be of little relevance in champion hurdle discussions .
the chase offers horse riding lessons and training to beginning thru advanced students in a fun and supportive environment . we have over 20 years of experience teaching english riding and jumping . we teach riders how to develop clear communication skills to enable them to establish the willing cooperation of their equine partners . we offer private as well as group lessons , and have school horses available for riders without their own . the chase also trains horses and riders for competition , and attends horse shows and jumping competitions with our team throughout the year . we have a number ( cont ' d )
bradstock and john carr have something in common : neither has reached double figures in terms of winners in a season . neither sublimity nor the late bill hennessy will be at leopardstown come christmas but there is talk coneygree might .
bill hennessy , from artane , an owner of 40 years ' experience , paid 32 , 000 guineas to buy sublimity out of the stable of sir michael stoute . at one stage last year , hennessy feared his latest investment was in danger of dying .
there was a virus in the yard at christmas and sublimity got the worst of it . there was a time when we thought we were going to lose him ,
he recalled .
the balance of power still appears to be held by the irish contenders for the smurfit kappa champion hurdle , spearheaded by last year ' s hero sublimity and backed up by former dual title - holder hardy eustace and harchibald .
1920 - joe schrewe resting after falling a douglas fir on his land in southwest sublimity . the stump looks to be about seven feet wide . born in germany , joe died in 1961 at 88 . he had three children .
with an irish grand national win on point barrow for pat hughes , in addition to numerous top class victories in sean mulryan ' s colours in france , carberry has been handed the task of steering sublimity in this years challenge .
the manner of sublimity ' s victory was such that , provided he remains sound , he should be defending his title next year . he is already quoted as high as 8 - 1 but as low as 7 - 2 .
■the irish collected again when sublimity , backed at up to 600 - 1 several months ago and 66 - 1 more recently , won the champion hurdle on the opening day of england ' s famous cheltenham jumps carnival on tuesday .


the fiery-throated hummingbird ( panterpe insignis ) is a medium-sized hummingbird which breeds only in the mountains of costa rica and western panama .

it is the only member of the genus panterpe .

this is a common to abundant bird of montane forest canopy above 1400 m , and also occurs in scrub at the woodland edges and clearings .

this bird is 11 cm long and weighs 5.7 g .

it has a straight black bill and dusky feet .

the adult fiery-throated hummingbird has shiny green body plumage , a blue tail , and a white spot behind the eye .

it often looks dark , but when the light catches it at the right angle , it shows a brilliant blue crown , yellow-bordered bright orange throat , and blue chest patch .

the sexes are similar , but young birds have rufous fringes to the head plumage .

the call is a high-pitched twittering .

the female fiery-throated hummingbird is entirely responsible for nest building and incubation .

she lays two white eggs in a bulky plant-fibre cup nest 2 – 4 m high at the end of a descending bamboo stem or on a rootlet under a bank .

incubation takes 15 – 19 days , and fledging another 20-26 .

the food of this species is nectar , taken from a variety of small flowers , including epiphytic ericaceae and bromeliads .

like other hummingbirds it also takes small insects as an essential source of protein .

male fiery-throated hummingbirds defend flowers and scrubs in their feeding territories , and are dominant over most other hummingbirds .

they will , however , allow females to share their food resources .

fiery - throated hummingbird

the fiery - throated hummingbird ( panterpe insignis ) - also known as irazu hummingbird - is a common , medium - sized hummingbird that occurs naturally in in the mountains of costa rica and western panama .
the fiery - throated hummingbird averages 11 cm or 4 . 3 inches in length and weighs about 5 . 7 g or 0 . 2 oz . it has a straight black bill and dusky - colored feet .
the fiery - throated hummingbirds primarily feed on nectar taken from a variety of brightly colored , scented small flowers of trees , herbs , shrubs and epiphytes , ericaceae and bromeliads .
the adult fiery - throated hummingbird has iridescent green body plumage , a dark blue tail , and a white spot behind each eye . it has a brilliant blue crown , yellow - bordered coppery orange throat , and blue chest patch . its sides and the back of the head are velvety black .

hummingbird was perched about 8 m from us . i merged two recordings of the same bird taken about 1 minute apart . recording was normalized to - 3 db .
the female fiery - throated hummingbird is responsible for building the bulky cup - shaped nest out of plant fibers woven together and green moss on the outside for camouflage in a protected location , typically about 2 - 4 m high at the end of a descending bamboo stem or on a rootlet under a bank . she lines the nest with soft plant fibers , animal hair and feather down , and strengthens the structure with spider webbing and other sticky material , giving it an elastic quality to allow it to stretch to double its size as the chicks grow and need more room . the nest is typically found on a low , thin horizontal branch .
first capture of a hummingbird . taken near kilometer 70 on the cerro de la muerte in central costa rica at paraiso de quetzal in june 2011 . these large hummingbirds were mobbing the feeders along with magnificent hummingbirds
they may also visit local hummingbird feeders for some sugar water , or drink out of bird baths or water fountains where they will either hover and sip water as it runs over the edge ; or they will perch on the edge and drink - like all the other birds ; however , they only remain still for a short moment .

justification : although this species may have a small range , it is not believed to approach the thresholds for vulnerable under the range size criterion ( extent of occurrence < 20 , 000 km2 combined with a declining or fluctuating range size , habitat extent / quality , or population size and a small number of locations or severe fragmentation ) . the population trend is not known , but the population is not believed to be decreasing sufficiently rapidly to approach the thresholds under the population trend criterion ( > 30 % decline over ten years or three generations ) . the population size has not been quantified , but it is not believed to approach the thresholds for vulnerable under the population size criterion ( < 10 , 000 mature individuals with a continuing decline estimated to be > 10 % in ten years or three generations , or with a specified population structure ) . for these reasons the species is evaluated as least concern .
the global population size has not been quantified , but this species is described as ' common ' ( stotz et al . ( 1996 ) .

found in north - central costa rica ( cordillera de tilarán ) , south to extreme western panama .
both males and females look alike . immature birds have rufous - colored fringes to their head feathers .
hummingbirds are named after the humming sound made by the beat of their wings . their wings make up to 100 beats per second , moving so rapidly that the naked eye cannot detect them . they are the only birds that can generate power on both the forward and backward wing strokes , which makes backward fly possible .
hummingbirds are solitary in all aspects of life other than breeding ; and the male ' s only involvement in the reproductive process is the actual mating with the female . they neither live nor migrate in flocks ; and there is no pair bond for this species . males court females by flying in a u - shaped pattern in front of them . he will separate from the female immediately after copulation . one male may mate with several females . in all likelihood , the female will also mate with several males . the males do not participate in choosing the nest location , building the nest or raising the chicks .
the average clutch consists of 2 white eggs , each being about the size of a coffee bean . the female alone incubates ( broods ) the eggs for about 15 - 19 days . during this time , the male continues to defend his territory and the flowers he feeds on . the female is also the only one that protects and feeds the chicks with regurgitated food ( mostly insects since nectar is an insufficient source of protein for the growing chicks ) . as is the case with other hummingbirds , the chicks are only brooded for the first week or two . after about 12 days , the young are left alone even on cooler nights - probably due to the small nest size . the young leave the nest when they are about 20 - 26 days old .
they favor flowers with the highest sugar content ( often red - colored and tubular - shaped ) and seek out , and aggressively protect , those areas containing flowers with high energy nectar . they use their long , extendible , straw - like tongues to retrieve the nectar while hovering with their tails cocked upward as they are licking at the nectar up to 13 times per second . sometimes they may be seen hanging on the flower while feeding .
many native and cultivated plants on whose flowers these birds feed heavily rely on them for pollination . the mostly tubular - shaped flowers actually exclude most bees and butterflies from feeding on them and , subsequently , from pollinating the plants .
they also take some small spiders and insects - important sources of protein particularly needed during the breeding season to ensure the proper development of their young . insects are often caught in flight ( hawking ) ; snatched off leaves or branches , or are taken from spider webs . a nesting female can capture up to 2 , 000 insects a day .
males establish feeding territories , where they aggressively chase away other males as well as large insects - such as bumblebees and hawk moths - that want to feed in their territory . they use aerial flights and intimidating displays to defend their territories .
males are fiercely territorial . aerial battles between males are frequently observed and are usually very entertaining to the observer . even though males will defend the flowers and scrubs in their feeding territories against other male hummingbirds ; they usually tolerate females .
