as with most common names , the application of the word is arbitrary and the larvae of sawflies commonly are called caterpillars as well .
caterpillars of most species are herbivorous , but not all ; some are insectivorous , even cannibalistic . some feed on other animal products ; for example clothes moths feed on wool , and horn moths feed on the hooves and horns of dead ungulates .
caterpillars as a rule are voracious feeders and many of them are among the most serious of agricultural pests . in fact many moth species are best known in their caterpillar stages because of the damage they cause to fruits and other agricultural produce , whereas the moths are obscure and do no direct harm . conversely , various species of caterpillar are valued as sources of silk , as human or animal food , or for biological control of pest plants .
the origins of the word
caterpillar
date from the early 16th century . they derive from middle english catirpel , catirpeller , probably an alteration of old north french catepelose : cate , cat ( from latin cattus ) + pelose , hairy ( from latin pilōsus ) .

the coral eclipse , the first race of the season in which older horses can take on runners of a classic age , nevertheless boasts a stellar line - up . the three - year - old sea the stars , trained by john oxx and winner of the 2 , 000 guineas and the epsom derby , is lining up with aidan o ' brien ' s rip van winkle , who finished fourth in epsom derby but is looking to turn that form upside down . o ' brien won the race last year with his horse mount nelson who was ridden by johnny murtagh .

mount nelson has sired five individual group winner and 10 individual listed winners on the flat , while his five - year - old son penhill won a grade 3 hurdle for willie mullins at the beginning of the month . commenting on his latest acquisition , john flood said , “we had been following mount nelson ' s progress at stud with interest and when i went to see him , i was hugely impressed with his good looks and presence and in particular his most athletic walk . it is encouraging to see some of his progeny making their way into the big national hunt yards and it is also very encouraging that there seems to be no bias between his colts and his fillies with over half of his stakes performers being of the fairer sex . ”

in the eclipse , johnny murtagh arrived late to snatch the prize in more ways than one . he was stuck in traffic on his way from luton airport to ride mount nelson for aidan o ' brien and , in the race itself , he landed the spoils in the last strides from phoenix tower after sitting a long way off the breakneck gallop set by the runner - up ' s stablemate , multidimensional .
boardsmill stud in county meath have announced their acquisition of dual group 1 winner and stakes sire mount nelson in a deal brokered by barry lynch of kern lillingston bloodstock . the 12 - year - old son of rock of gibraltar ( ire ) previously stood at newsells park stud and will now become a dual purpose alongside califet , court cave ( ire ) and kalinisi ( ire ) at the flood family ' s farm .
after mount nelson ' s short - head defeat of phoenix tower on saturday , o ' brien ' s comments about how it was achieved were entirely appropriate , given the best - attended sporting event of the domestic weekend . at silverstone , 90 , 000 held their breath every time lewis hamilton stopped for tyres and fuel ; the importance of teamwork can surely be no better illustrated than during a formula 1 grand prix .
since duke of marmalade ' s victory in the prix ganay on april 27th , aidan o ' brien has averaged a group 1 success every week and on saturday mount nelson became the ballydoyle maestro ' s twelfth of the season , just edging out henry cecil ' s phoenix tower in a thrilling climax to the coral - eclipse at sandown . such has been o ' brien ' s dominance at the highest level of late there was always an air of inevitability that mount nelson would get up , coming through at the death to deny the favourite by a short head . it wasn ' t the strongest renewal of the race by any means and the winner will likely find the competition much tougher next time and will need to improve again , while the runner - up is likely to get few better opportunities to win at the top level at home .
therein lies the biggest flaw in this vision of the future . while dettori is very much involved in the top action - he rode a sparkling double yesterday and was beaten only just over a length into fourth on campanologist in a pulsating finish to the eclipse won by mount nelson . yet authorized has been retired and ramonti is on the injured list after his superb 2007 . continuity is not guaranteed with flat horses and nor should it be .
every now and then a horse with enough ability and character comes along to enter the public consciousness , but for every red rum , desert orchid and dancing brave there are thousands of ordinary horses - and champions - who never make such an impression .
the pits crews have to work as one in the few seconds their man is stationary ; behind the scenes in a racing stable the timescale can be longer , but co - ordination is no less vital . mount nelson ' s victory was a masterpiece of planning , for the four - year - old ' s very appearance on the track was no less perfectly delivered by the back - room squad than was the thrilling denouement by johnny murtagh in the saddle .
trained by aidan o ' brien , mount nelson won the group 1 criterium international over a mile at two before enduring setbacks at three , and went on to gain his second top - level victory in the coral eclipse over a mile and two furlongs . he is a half - brother to great voltigeur stakes winner and ladbrokes st leger third monitor closely ( ire ) , out of the sun chariot stakes - winning selkirk mare independence , from the family of champion racehorse reference point .
“i thought we had a john smith’s magnet cup horse . but as soon as i sat on him i said to dean he had more speed than he was showing on the track and on his first run at wolverhampton over a mile he broke the track record . ”
unusually for a ballydoyle horse in a group one contest , no pacemaker was deployed on behalf of mount nelson .
we discussed it and decided it was not necessary ,
said murtagh .
i knew i was on the best horse and that if there was no pace i ' d outsprint them and if they went a gallop , like they did , i could come with a run from the back .
murtagh also emphasised the team effort but is in no doubt as to the source of the aspiration to excellence .
aidan is where it starts ,
he added .
his example makes everyone willing to go the extra length to get the job done and make sure we come out on top on the big days .
when o ' brien had that annus mirabilis , the list of winners comprised only three - year - olds and two - year - olds . the policy of the ballydoyle - coolmore axis has changed since then and older horses have contributed more than half of this year ' s haul .
“it is my third horse and we are really ordinary small - time working - class owners , ” said scotland - born co - owner francis carruthers , when contacted by the sporting post after the race . he owns the history - making winner in partnership with ian robinson .
“i suppose at 36 you start looking to the future a bit , ” he said . “but last winter i told dean this would probably be my last season riding . tropics was out injured and i couldn’t see a horse that might get me back on the big stage . ”
when mount nelson brought up the glorious 12th in the eclipse stakes on saturday , he took his trainer more than half - way towards his all - time record of 23 group or grade one wins world - wide that he set seven years ago . at this point in 2001 his score was seven . yesterday ' s german derby was the 31st of the top prizes scheduled in europe , only a third of the way into the elite schedule with the rich pickings of the north american and far eastern autumn schedules to come in addition .
newsells park stud’s equiano is the highest - rated son of acclamation and stands at £8 , 000 . his first crop are now three - year - olds but he already has a group winner to his name and , as a top sprinter who reached his peak at five , it’s fair to assume that the best is yet to come . equiano’s stud - mate mount nelson , an impressive son of rock of gibraltar , is great value for money for value at £6 , 000 with a tally of 10 group winners and performers to date .
sandown / / mount nelson won a thrilling finish to the group 1 coral eclipse at sandown yesterday , under a masterful ride from jockey johnny murtagh , pipping phoenix tower and the fast - finishing pipedreamer into second and third respectively . it was an incredible 12th group 1 victory this year for trainer aidan o ' brien , who relied solely on the son of rock of gibraltar in the 1m2f contest . this was also o ' brien ' s fourth win in the eclipse from just seven runners , underlining the strength of bloodstock that lurks within ballydoyle .

dylan thomas may have been under - rated both by punters and by his own stable at epsom , but come irish derby day he was properly appreciated . his stable’s first string in a four - horse squad , he started favourite . he duly came home in front under kieren fallon , beating the italian derby winner gentlewave by three and a half lengths . derby runner - up dragon dancer finished fourth , with prix du jockey - club winner darsi fifth in the 13 - horse field . thereafter dylan thomas graduated to weight - for - age company and continued to run both regularly and well , both that season and the next one .

ibrisa breeze , whose spectacular last - to - first final furlong burst at ascot a fortnight ago has earnt him a crack at tomorrow’s qipco british champions sprint , is not only the dark horse in the race as he tackles six furlongs for the first time , but he has rekindled jockey robert winston’s love for the sport .
the bay filly by western classic out of jamaican dream looked forward in condition when clocking 36 . 1 over three furlongs alongside lady abhijita on may 19 and should make a brave bid first time of asking . lady abhijita is a bay filly by the 2005 / 2006 ' horse of the year ' miracle man out of lady bakul .
at ayr , border fox has the look of a horse laid out for his first flat handicap at 3 . 20 . the winner of a bumper and a novices ' hurdle when leading all the way , border fox has been behind early on in his three flat runs , but given a change of tactics , he will be competitive today .
motor racing mechanics can replace a wheel in an instant . those at ballydoyle had to wait for mount nelson to grow a new one after he ripped off a shoe early last year , taking off half his near - fore hoof with it and damaging the bone underneath . though all is structurally sound now , the evidence of the injury is still visible , rather like a fingernail growing back with slight deformation . the colt , seemingly as tough as his sire rock of gibraltar , was off games for nearly a year and there was no mistaking the pride with which his lad edmund o ' dwyer received his prize on saturday .
van der hoven only rode two winners last season and has notched up a vastly improved 8 this term , with a rather ordinary strike rate of 6 % . but judged on today’s ice cool exhibition , as he switched his mount out wide at the 400m , he deserves to be riding much better horses .

n 2010 , the eclipse stakes will form the fifth of 10 races in the sovereign series , a points - based competition to find a champion horse of the series that the organisers hope will rival the premier league and formula one as a televisual feast . £5m , including a £2m bonus to the connections of the champion , will be added to the existing prize money .

although racing should emphasise the horse as much as it can , racing in britain is driven by betting and that is what most patrons of the sport are interested in . that is what will push racing onward . fans of football , rugby and cricket have a team to follow . racing ' s punters follow their money . the winning and the losing is generally their narrative .

this saturday’s two thousand guineas at newmarket will no doubt have a major bearing on the epsom derby market , even though the three - year - olds will need to step up from the 1600m of the famous “rowley mile” to the traditional mile and a half ( 2400m ) of england’s most famous horse race . heading the guineas market are teofilo , adagio and unbeaten french colt us ranger .
no horse has ever won all four of what one might describe as europe’s biggest races , ie the derby , irish derby , king george vi and queen elizabeth stakes and prix de l’arc de triomphe . several horses have won three of them , including mill reef , lammtarra and sinndar . it is a less obvious horse , though , who holds arguably the best record in this sense , dylan thomas having won three of these races and finished third in the other . it is a similar story with his stud career : he is not perceived as a particularly successful stallion , but even so his stock keep winning good races , as the victory of his irish - bred son blazing speed in the group one audemars piguet queen elizabeth ii cup at sha tin has reminded us , writes john berry .
overbury stud was well represented with three impressive young stallions . cityscape , the striking son of selkirk is a carbon copy of his sire and boasts the highest timeform rating of any of his progeny at 125 . he set a new track record when winning the group 1 dubai duty free stakes at meydan and is available at £4 , 500 . dunaden has been acclaimed by sheikh fahad as his “horse of a lifetime” and this tough , tenacious horse proved his grit and determination by winning three group 1 races in australia and hong kong . his fee is £3 , 000and breeders using him in his first season can benefit from come lucrative premiums from the dunaden breeders’ club initiative , we well as a £25 , 000 bonus for anyone to breed a first - crop two - or three - year - old stakes winner by him .
“i had a strong feeling if i didn’t go after this full time , somebody else would do it and i’d be angry with myself for the rest of my life , ” richter remembers . in time , he talked luigi aquilini , along with builder art bosa and then edmonton oilers owner nelson skalbania ( “a likable rogue , ” richter calls him ) , into backing the scheme .
rock kingdom ' s victory in the $ 350 , 000 arrowfield stud epsom handicap for the waterhouse stables at randwick on saturday means that his coolmore shuttling ireland bred danehill sire rock of gibraltar has now had group1 winners in his first three crops in six countries , australia , england , france , america , south africa and hong kong . ireland sired group1 winners have included mount nelson ( won england eclipse stakes , france ' s criterium international ; third arlington million ) , eagle mountain ( hong kong cup ; second english derby , champion stakes , american breeders ' cup turf , third irish derby ) , diamondrella ( belmont just a game stakes ) and varenar ( longchamp prix de la foret ) . also among them have been high rock ( fourth french derby ) and yellowstone ( third criterium international ) .
winston’s first contact with the animals he now works with on a daily basis was delivering logs from a horse and cart in the dublin suburb of finglas where he was brought up . he spent nearly two decades based in york , but last september he moved south with his partner , the former amateur vicky cartmel , and their two children . they now have planning for a racehorse rehabilitation yard on 40 acres in chilton , oxfordshire , which should be up and running by next spring .
precocity is not an issue for horses going to hong kong , and predictably dylan thomas ' stock are doing well in the longer races there . blazing speed ' s two - length victory in the audemars piguet qeii cup represents world - class form , and he was not the only dylan thomas horse to run well in the race : packing llaregyb finished fifth , only inches behind criterion and designs on rome , and ahead of the likes of military attack . california memory , smoking sun and red cadeaux .
reference point was a dark - coated bay horse bred by his owner , louis freedman , at his cliveden stud in berkshire , england . [ 2 ] [ 3 ] he was sired by mill reef the 1971 epsom derby winner who went on to be leading sire in great britain and ireland in 1978 and 1987 . reference point ' s dam , home on the range , was a high class racemare who won the sun chariot stakes in 1981 . apart from reference point , the best of her progeny was known ranger , who won nineteen races in europe and north america . [ 4 ]
spirit one is no longer at haras du lonray , having moved to haras des sablonnets at a fee of 2 , 500 euros in advance of the 2013 season . he had ended 2012 having had a solid boost from his first crop of juveniles , of which six of his 18 individual runners had won , amassing collectively the impressive earnings of nearly 240 , 000 euros . he is still owned by kamel chahboub , who must currently be looking at the future with renewed hope , his lovely horse now having proved to the wider world what his owner / breeder has known all along : that he has the potential to be a very good stallion .
in 1860 , a british naval officer , g . h . richards , was tasked with surveying the coast of howe sound , the fjord just north of what would become vancouver . dominating the head of the inlet was a 2 , 678 - metre - high mountain perpetually swathed in snow and ice . disregarding the local squamish people’s name for the landmark—chuckigh , meaning “dirty snow”—richards labelled this most northern of the cascade volcanoes mount garibaldi , after the dashing general giuseppe garibaldi , who at that point was leading the fight to unify italy for the first time since the fall of the roman empire .
it is hard to know what the future holds for dylan thomas . he has proved that he can sire high - class , sound and genuine horses , but the picture painted by his plummeting stud fee and change of address tells its own story . no stallion can succeed without patronage , and it could be the case that henceforth he may not be given much assistance in that respect , at least as regards flat racing . there is one thing that one can say , though : for anyone aspiring to breed a high - class , sound and genuine middle - distance galloper and who owns a mare with prospects of producing such a horse , dylan thomas ' current stud fee could be regarded as manna from heaven .
deer park lord has gone into the record books as the worst horse in training , the donal nolan - trained four - year - old having earned an official rating of 1 after his first three runs , all at hamilton . he was beaten 134 lengths when last on his debut in a maiden in may over a mile and three furlongs , but was then dropped in trip to six furlongs , which seemed to help . five days later , he was only 52 lengths last of 11 and then 40 lengths last of 11 the following month over the same trip . however , after finishing only 29 lengths last of nine on his fourth start , again at hamilton , in a claimer last tuesday , he may now be raised in the ratings .
reference point ( 26 february 1984– december 1991 ) was a british thoroughbred race horse and sire . in a career which lasted from august 1986 to october 1987 he ran ten times and won seven races . as a three - year - old he overcame sinus problems before winning york ' s dante stakes , the derby , ascot ' s king george vi and queen elizabeth diamond stakes , the great voltigeur and st . leger in 1987 . it was not until 2012 that another derby winner contested the st . leger ; when camelot attempted , and failed , to win the english triple crown . his final race of the season resulted in failure in the prix de l ' arc de triomphe at longchamp , paris when an abscess was later found to have been responsible for his below - par performance .
building a brand new ski resort is hard—so hard nobody has been able to do it anywhere in north america since blackcomb and beaver creek , colo . , both opened for the 1980 to ’81 winter season . ( in a few cases , developers have succeeded in expanding community hills into destination resorts , including kicking horse mountain and revelstoke mountain in b . c . ) part of the reason for the absence of new resort development lies on the demand side of the equation . the number of people skiing in north america is flat to falling—certainly not keeping pace with population growth . after hovering around 20 million for most of the past decade , skier visits ( days on a hill ) in canada slumped to 18 . 5 million in 2014 to ’15 . a number of reasons are cited : aging baby boomers , lower participation rates among non - european immigrants , and the increasing difficulty of fitting a $ 75 - plus lift ticket into a middle - income budget .
dylan thomas duly retired to coolmore stud aged five in 2008 , justifiably the height of fashion . his stud fee reflected this : 50 , 000 euros . he had been pretty much the perfect racehorse . a very good and hardy two - year - old , he had developed into a top - class three - year - old , winning at group one level both in a classic and at weight - for - age ; and then had progressed further at four , taking four of europe ' s best races . he had raced 20 times - a massive total for a top - class horse nowadays - and had won half of his starts , his 10 victories including eight stakes races and six group ones . furthermore , his imposing physique matched his racing record , his looks containing a good chunk of the muscularity of his sire danehill , a good slice of the elegance of his maternal grandsire diesis , and a dose of raw power thrown in for good measure .
the decision was made to aim reference point for both the st leger and the prix de l ' arc de triomphe . in his prep race he ran in the great voltigeur stakes at york in august . he won comfortably at odds of 1 / 10 , but sustained a minor injury when slipping on the heavily - watered ground . [ 12 ] only six horses opposed him in the st leger at doncaster in september . he started the 4 / 11 favourite and won by one and a half lengths from mountain kingdom . the win took his earnings to £774 , 275 , a record for a horse racing exclusively in britain . [ 13 ] on his final start , reference point started odds - on favourite for the prix de l ' arc de triomphe at longchamp in october . as usual , he led from the start , but in the straight he weakened abruptly and finished eighth behind trempolino . [ 14 ] he returned from the race lame , and was found to be suffering from an abscess in his foot . [ 15 ] reference did not race again and was retired to stud .
to get to the site of this fraught project , you have to drive a few minutes north of modern - day squamish , where the sea - to - sky highway begins its ascent toward whistler . you park in a pull - off to a gated logging road that switchbacks up brohm ridge , a shoulder of mount garibaldi that pokes out from the park . you then need to hike or mountain bike through the second - growth alder and hemlock to a shelf just above the 1 , 000 - metre contour . here garibaldi at squamish inc . , jointly controlled by aquilini investment group and the gaglardi family’s northland properties , intends to build a village featuring 1 , 500 hotel rooms and upwards of 2 , 000 private residences . radiating from it will be 23 lifts . in addition to the construction activity over a 20 - year build - out , the operation is forecast to create more than 4 , 000 permanent jobs and $ 160 million in gdp per year .
in three years of racing , spirit one , who won five of his 19 races , thus proved himself a very good horse , a very tough one and a very genuine one . his racing record was tremendous – and would almost certainly have been even better had he been a little more amenable to restraint . his sire had won the prix du jockey - club and his grandsire was the mighty anabaa so , coming from a prolific winner - producing french family , he was clearly an exciting stud prospect . one might have expected him to have retired to one of normandy’s most fashionable properties at a high fee – but the breeding world is an odd one . his credentials were hard to fault , but bizarrely he didn’t appear to be at the top of anyone’s most - wanted list – probably not helped by the fact that the market - place was already washing its hands of his sire by this time . he duly retired to haras du lonray , a stud which stands good stallions but generally gets neither publicity nor profit for its pains . the stud previously had received precious little thanks for bringing the excellent japanese sunday silence stallion
murtagh underlined this fact in the winners ' enclosure after the race .
we ' ve got some marvellous horses and this is another one ,
said the beaming jockey .
i know people might be saying this isn ' t the strongest group one , but try winning one ,
he added . henry cecil ' s multidimensional set a searing pace from the off , with godolphin ' s campanologist , ridden by frankie dettori , sat behind with the sheikh hamdan bin mohammed - owned maraahel .
campanologist did not quite have the strength or stamina to land a blow , however , and stayed on for fourth on the rail under dettori . trainer saeed bin suroor seemed pleased with the run though .
he ran very well as he was the only three - year - old against older horses ,
the former policeman said .
we might give him a little break and bring him back in august .
a mile and a quarter or a mile and a half will be no problem .
after a dry night , the going was good to firm , firm in places yesterday morning , which prompted suroor to scratch his other runner , literato , from the contest . @ email : sports @ urltoken
