she extended her record to a perfect 6 wins from 6 starts in the 2015 belmont oaks invitational stakes , but then stepped on a nail , which led to a life-threatening case of laminitis .

after a lengthy recovery , lady eli finished second in her august 2016 return to the racetrack then won the flower bowl stakes in october .

with her win in the gamely stakes in may 2017 , she has won a grade i race in each of her four racing seasons .

just a year ago , runnymede - bred lady eli was battling for her life against a formidable foe , laminitis .
while walking back from the test barn following that race , lady eli stepped on a nail , and she developed laminitis in both of her front feet . lady eli was treated by podiatrists robert ange and brian fraley . earlier this month , agne was killed in a vehicular accident in vermont . fraley , based in kentucky , will oversee lady eli’s care .
brown had become enamored with lady eli , who had been named after kumin ' s wife elizabeth , whose initials were e . l . i . , so she was given the nickname eli when she was young . brown had never had a young horse train as well as lady eli was training .
brown told daily racing form that lady eli is currently stabled at belmont park in what he described as “stable but guarded condition . ” further , brown noted that lady eli has “been fitted with special shoes for support on both front feet . ”
lady eli earned a vacation after that effort but has resumed light training with brown at palm meadows training center in florida .

perhaps the condition is better understood visually . see the illustrations below and remember lady eli had to battle this in both front hooves .
for his part , ortiz beams when he talks about lady eli , calling her a “special filly” and saying “i love her . ”
lady eli , under irad ortiz jr . , was along the rail down the backside , got off the fence , split horses , and then got to the outside approaching the top of the stretch . lady eli set sail after avenge and collared her inside the sixteenth pole , but queen ' s trust , who emerged from behind horses at the three - sixteenths pole , ran down lady eli at the wire .
ridden by irad ortiz jr . , lady eli ran 1 1 / 8 miles on turf in 1 : 45 . 29 on saturday .
as a 2 - year - old , lady eli went 3 for 3 , capped by a victory in the breeders’ cup juvenile fillies turf .
ortiz guided lady eli four wide around the turn and she advanced quickly into contention by the top of the stretch . quidura , however , was still going strong while dickinson retreated . ortiz was just waving the whip at lady eli and at the eighth pole it appeared they made light contact .
the victory was the second at the meeting for lady eli , who won the grade 1 diana in similar fashion five weeks ago . the win also made amends for lady eli’s disappointing second - place finish behind strike charmer when returning from a 14 - month layoff in the 2016 ballston spa .
running lady eli in the ballston spa was a last - minute decision by trainer chad brown , who saddled three runners in the field of five .
an enormous amount of credit is due brown and his team for getting lady eli through this . the sleepless nights at the barn paid off and if lady eli returns even close to the level she was before , we’ll all be witness to one of the best equine comebacks and performances ever . in addition to the veterinary work and care , including love , that went into getting lady eli back to the track , just look at her works .
twice grade 1 - placed behind the exceptional lady eli since the rodeo drive , avenge is currently in training with richard mandella for owner ramona bass .
trainer chad brown credited ortiz with getting lady eli out of a sticky spot early in the race , but he was naturally disappointed with the narrow loss .

sent off as the odds - on favorite , lady eli returned $ 3 . 40 , $ 2 . 30 , and $ 2 . 10 across the board .
lady eli , who has posted triple - digit beyer speed figures in five of her last six starts , drew post 3 with irad ortiz , jr . aboard .
lady eli will likely have two more races in her career . the next will be the grade 1 flower bowl at belmont park on oct . 8 before her final race , the breeders’ cup filly and mare turf at del mar on nov . 4 . after that , kumin said , lady eli will likely be sold at auction .
also noteworthy is , for a while , it was believed that tepin might show up in the same race , yet that news did not seem to deter chad brown or lady eli’s connections from their return goal at all . tepin won’t be in the gate for the ballston spa , but all indications are that lady eli will be .
for brown , there was just a sense of relief that lady eli was able to get up and win her ninth race from 12 starts and her fifth grade 1 .
and the anticipation of what is next for lady eli continues to build for hanley and his father , robert , who will join his son at belmont park on saturday .
, lady eli has won all six starts , including the 2014 breeders ' cup juvenile fillies turf ( gr . it ) . after breaking her maiden in her debut at

brown was so high on lady eli , he called hanley after her first breeze on the grass and told him ,
this horse can win the breeders ' cup .
the $ 160 , 000 spent by sheep pond partners to acquire lady eli , who is named for hanley and kumin’s wives who are both elizabeths , was money well spent .
runnymede farm and catesby clay bred lady eli in kentucky , and sold her to bradley thoroughbreds at the 2013 keeneland september yearling sale for $ 160 , 000 . jay hanley of sheep pond bought lady eli from agent eddie woods for the same amount at the keeneland april 2 - year - olds in training sale before sending her to new york and trainer chad brown .
diligent efforts of many on trainer chad brown ' s team helped lady eli make her way back to the races , and she returned to score in the g1 flower bowl and , last out , the g1 gamely stakes . overall , lady eli has won nine of her twelve starts , never running worse than second , and earned more than $ 2 . 7 million .
likewise , lady eli is by a sire , divine park ( chester house ) , who showed his best form at a mile , with a victory in the g1 metropolitan handicap . divine park did not manage to sire performers with the consistency or high class of his star , and lady eli is the best performer by her sire , who now is standing in korea .
although there were a few horses with better odds than lady eli earlier in the week , enough bettors understood what this horse was capable of that she became the favorite by post time .
i would say that our hearts are shattered too , but as much as we can love lady eli from afar , that can ' t compare to the personal bond forged by those closest to her . brown and his team will experience this blow in a far more crushing way . so too will everyone who ' s been around lady eli from her days at runnymede .
ortiz waited a long time to move with lady eli , finally electing to go three - wide around the last part of the far turn to challenge the still - leading quidura , far from quitting . dickinson was between them but quickly dropped out of it , but antonoe found a seam up the inside rail and appeared poised to threaten the leader along with her stablemate lady eli .
he and his mother moved from the family ' s home in gladstone for eli to receive treatment at lady cilento children ' s hospital , where he has been for the past seven months .
i recently had a chance to touch base with both steve rushing , jockey irad ortiz jr . ’s agent , and ortiz himself regarding the status of lady eli . their enthusiasm is contagious .

other victories recorded by lady eli include the grade 3 miss grillo at 2 and the grade 3 appalachian and listed wonder again stakes at age 3 . she has earned $ 1 , 449 , 800 . lady eli was purchased for $ 160 , 000 as a 2 - year - old in training in april 2014 by sheep pond partners , a group led by jay hanley and sol kumin .
ortiz said he got close to quidura , but said his filly never touched that horse . junior alvarado , quidura ' s rider , said that lady eli “was right on top of me . ”
“she’s probably going to lay close . if there’s a rabbit in the race , we’d be laying second , third or fourth and hope we get the jump on lady eli , ” he added .
lady eli was coming off two close losses : by a nose in the jenny wiley stakes at keeneland in april and by a head in the breeders ' cup filly & mare turf last november .

elmont , n . y . – the racing career of the undefeated 3 - year - old filly lady eli is uncertain after her connections announced monday that she has developed laminitis in her front feet .
the ultimate outcome is not what is really important here . what is important is that lady eli is alive and , more than that , ready to return to the starting gate at the stakes level .
ortiz said he got close to quidura , but said his filly never touched that horse . junior alvarado , quidura ' s rider , said that lady eli

last month eli finished his first bout of chemotherapy and had an operation to remove most of the cancer .
but in his very next sentence , brown said of lady eli , “i’d argue that she’s the most talented 2 - year - old filly in the country . she deserves to be in that conversation . ”
lady eli has won all six of her races , including last year’s breeders’ cup juvenile fillies turf . most recently , she captured the grade 1 , $ 1 million belmont oaks invitational here on july 4 .
, lady eli was last sold at auction at the 2014 keeneland april 2 - year - olds in training sale where sheep pond ' s jay hanley purchased her for $ 160 , 000 from eddie woods .

dirt and turf influences abound in lady eli’s pedigree . her dam , the saint ballado mare sacre coeur , scored her only win from three starts on dirt at aqueduct , but she produced lady eli’s half - sister bizzy caroline , by afleet alex , a good middle - distance turf performer who captured two grade 3s on the churchill downs lawn during 2011 - 2012 and also placed in three other graded stakes during that timespan .
near the rail in third . lady eli was settled off the pace in fourth as early fractions went in : 24 . 34 and : 48 . 92 for the half - mile over the firm mellon turf course .

lady eli appeared to move toward the rail , toward quidura , in the final eighth of a mile , and eventually quidura shut off antonoe ' s path at the rail , causing castellano to take up sharply at the three - sixteenths pole . lady eli ran valiantly , however , and was just able to get her head in front of quidura at the line for the victory . antonoe had to settle for third , and harmonize was fourth .
lady eli , a 5 - year - old daughter of divine park owned by sheep pond partners , covered 1 1 / 16 miles over a firm course in 1 : 39 . 70 and returned $ 3 . 40 .
heading into the second turn , on leave moved up to go head to head with dickinson as six furlongs went in 1 : 11 . 64 . irad ortiz jr . moved lady eli wide and angled out at the top of the stretch , then cut his mare loose and the pair exploded down the stretch . lady eli crossed the wire first , 1 1 / 2 lengths in front of dickinson , who held on for second over a closing
shortly after , she developed symptoms of laminitis in both of her front feet and suddenly , in the prime of a fantastic career , it was doubtful lady eli would ever race again and unclear if she would even survive .

chad brown trained maram . and brown trains the undefeated lady eli , a 2 - year - old filly eclipse award finalist off a most impressive score in the breeders’ cup juvenile fillies turf , her third victory from as many career starts .
after the race , brown said lady eli was the best turf filly he has been around , counting several whom he trained – including the champion stacelita – and several champions with whom he worked when he was an assistant to bobby frankel .
lady eli is divine park’s first graded stakes winner . the filly has won all three of her starts , each over a different turf course , and brought the new ownership group sheep pond partners to the sport’s biggest stage in meteoric fashion .
i wanted to get to her wheels ; i didn ' t get to her wheels until midturn ,
dettori said , referring to lady eli .
once i got to her wheels , i knew i could get there .
when a certain filly makes her long - awaited comeback , however , devaux says she plans on being at the spa . because when she said goodbye to lady eli last september , she couldn’t be sure she would ever get that chance .
when the undefeated lady eli , last year’s winner of the breeders’ cup juvenile fillies turf , enters the starting gate for saturday’s belmont oaks she will continue what her co - owner jay hanley calls an “unfathomable” journey for him and his partners .
if lady eli continues her rehabilitation and regains the form that made me rank her the best of her sex and age , regardless of surface , at 2 and 3 , she would be a formidable and worthy opponent for catch a glimpse .

the start of the diana was delayed by a few minutes when antonoe broke through gate two and jogged off some beneath javier castellano , while lady eli , drawn right to her stablemate’s outside , pushed open her stall , but was held onto by her gate attendant . once reloaded , quidura jumped best of all and was kept company by dickinson ( medaglia d’oro ) , while antonoe box - seated from third . lady eli raced in fifth in the wake of the juddmonte runner and the pace up front was honest enough . guided out into the clear down the backstretch , lady eli was patiently handled by her regular rider irad ortiz , jr . , but quidura was enjoying a reasonably easy time of it on the engine through a half - mile in : 47 . 51 . with antonoe , so impressive in winning the gi just a game s . last time , committed to an inside run and hoping for the gaps to come , lady eli went for an overland passage as the two chief protagonists made their moves simultaneously nearing the entrance to the stretch . four wide at the top of the lane , lady eli kicked hard and was more or less on even terms with quidura at the eighth pole . the german - owned runner was in for the fight as the two raced in lockstep for most of the final furlong , but lady eli proved the slightly more determined competitor on the day . antonoe had her chances up the fence , but did not quicken the same way she did last time and was checked short of room in deep stretch . the stewards looked into the incident , but the result was allowed to stand . lady eli gave quidura eight pounds and covered an additional 23 feet per trakus .
lady eli ( divine park ) ’s feel good story continued with an ultra - game half - length victory over goodyearforroses ( ire ) ( azamour { ire } ) in santa anita’s gi gamely s . the stretch - runner was taken out of her element by irad ortiz jr . in the early stages and didn’t let second choice avenge ( war front ) out of her sight through fractions of : 23 . 23 and : 46 . 46 . lady eli wrestled command from the . . .

singer / songwriters nicole wray and terri walker , who together make up the soul duo lady , have impressive musical backstories .
but once again , lady eli ' s turn of foot was too much for her opponents , as she blew her field away with one burst of acceleration to win by almost three lengths in a rapid 1 : 33 2 / 5 for the mile .
though it was difficult to see lady eli depart from her care last fall , devaux says she felt comfort in knowing that she and the brown team had done all they could do to ensure the filly’s health , whether or not she ever ran again .

as has been the case with many of her nine previous tallies , lady eli’s victory in the ballston star did not come easy . reserved within striking distance by regular rider irad oritz jr . off the pace set by dickinson , lady eli had to steady along behind horses awaiting racing room around the second bend . she inched her way to the outside in early stretch , then showed her usual sharp turn of foot once finally in the clear , overtaking dickinson inside the eighth pole before edging clear at the end .
runnymede - bred lady eli , who romped to an impressive victory in the breeders’ cup juvenile fillies turf ( g1 ) to cap her undefeated season , has been rated the co - best two - year - old filly in the united states for 2014 with champion take charge brandi . the 123 - pound assignment given to lady eli on the jockey club’s experimental free handicap also put the daughter of divine park out of our saint ballado mare sacre coeur above all american colts excepting only champion american pharoah and . . .
trainer chad brown said monday that lady eli stepped on a nail while walking back from the test barn to her own barn at belmont park following her victory in the grade 1 , $ 1 million belmont oaks on july 4 , injuring her left front foot .
much has happened for lady eli in those three years—five grade 1 wins and a comeback from a battle with laminitis—and she again showed her class and tenacity in the 1 1 / 16 - mile test on the turf aug . 26 , leaving fellow grade 1 winners
as noted by the committee members and the jockey club in supplemental information , lady eli earned $ 719 , 800 during her three - race season , which began with a maiden special weight win over 1 1 / 16 miles on the saratoga race course turf .
the remarkable filly lady eli and tenacious gelding undrafted galloped at santa anita on sunny , but brisk wednesday morning . both horses appeared relaxed , responsive and in peak physical condition , with only three days remaining until their appearances in the 2016 breeders ' cup on saturday , november , 5 . lady eli , owned by sheep pond partners , has drawn post position number 8 in the breeders ' cup filly & mare turf . the race is a rematch with stablemate sea calisi ( fr ) and sentiero italia , . . .
second video beatrice eli , it’s over . beatrice and her girlfriends host a very boisterous party in someone’s flat or squat . this involves much dancing , some spray painting , and possibly a pillow fight as feathers are constantly in the air throughout . eli maintains her swagger .
lady eli was one of the most impressive winners at the breeders’ cup . that’s why she has a better shot at a championship than any other recent turf specialists in the 2 - year - old filly division . but she’s already a big winner to her connections .
for lady eli , it was just her third defeat in 10 career starts , all by narrow margins . the 5 - year - old mare was making her first start since finishing second by a nose in the breeders ' cup filly and mare turf in november .
dickinson , who handed lady eli one of her three career setbacks earlier this season in the grade 1 jenny wiley at keeneland , was well handled on the lead , shook off a bid from on leave in early stretch before ultimately proving no match for the winner .
lady eli has eight wins and three runner - up finishes in 11 career starts . she burst on to the scene with six straight wins to start her career , including the 2014 grade 1 breeders ' cup juvenile fillies turf and the 2015 grade1 belmont oaks invitational .
wild grace would be followed by other purchases for hanley , but none as notable as the chad brown - trained lady eli . the 3 - year - old , whose career record is unblemished in five starts , is the first horse bought by sheep pond partners , an ownership group formed by hanley . one of lady eli’s co - owners is hanley’s friend , sol kumin , a hedge fund manager who recently celebrated a win at royal ascot in the g1 diamond jubilee with undrafted , a horse he owns in partnership with wes welker .
the result wasn’t made official until the stewards conducted an inquiry into the stretch run . in the stretch , lady eli , widest of three , got right alongside quidura , who came over slightly and took some room away from antonoe , who took up under javier castellano .
lady eli , a 5 - year - old daughter of divine park owned by sheep pond partners of jay hanley and sol kumin , covered the 1 1 / 8 miles in 1 : 46 . 17 and returned $ 3 . 90 as the 4 - 5 favorite .
entering the $ 1 million belmont oaks , a breeders’ cup challenge series race and a “win and you’re in” for the $ 2 million filly & mare turf , to be run at keeneland racecourse on oct . 31 , lady eli has earnings of $ 914 , 800 .

the undeniable marquee yearling of the group is our ghostzapper colt out of sacre coeur , thus a half brother to lady eli , a multiple grade 1 winner who captured last year’s breeders’ cup juvenile fillies turf ( g1 ) while defeating a top group of rivals . . .
lady eli outlasted quidura by a head , completing 1 1 / 8 miles on the mellon turf course in 1 : 46 . 17 to win her second consecutive grade 1 start - building on her gamely effort on may 27 at santa anita - and her fourth overall .
lady eli is the first graded stakes winner by the chester house sire divine park . she is out of the saint ballado mare sacre coeur and was bred in kentucky by runnymede farm and catesby clay . she was first sold for $ 160 , 000 at the 2013 keeneland september yearling sale to bradley thoroughbreds . she was then sold for the same sum the following april at the keeneland sale of 2 - year - olds in training to jay hanley . hanley and partner sol kumin race as sheep pond partners , the banner under which lady eli campaigns .
that victory earned lady eli favoritism in the breeders ' cup juvenile fillies , despite going against a deep and talented field that included del mar debutante winner sunset glow , several group winners from europe , and the leading 2 - year - old filly in canada , conquest harlanate .
but waiting for a horse like this is something kumin and hanley no longer will do . for as many top - class horses as they own and will own , they know in their heart they will never again have a horse like lady eli . nor will anyone else .
that in itself is a notable accomplishment , and it is a credit to the filly ' s handlers , including trainer chad brown , and to the veterinary care she has received that lady eli has not only survived laminitis but is on her way back to her best form .
sheep pond partners ' lady eli produced another memorable effort at historic saratoga race course , running down quidura in the final strides to win the 79th running of the grade 1 , $ 500 , 000 diana for fillies and mares 3 - years - old and up on saturday .
runnymede - bred lady eli , who romped to an impressive victory in the breeders’ cup juvenile fillies turf ( g1 ) to cap her undefeated season , has been rated the co - best two - year - old filly in the united states for 2014 with champion take charge brandi .
the result wasn ' t made official until the stewards conducted an inquiry into the stretch run . in the stretch , lady eli , widest of three , got right alongside quidura , who came over slightly and took some room away from antonoe , who took up under javier castellano .
divine park has sired five crops of racing age , with 87 winners and combined progeny earnings of more than $ 5 . 7 million . his leading runner is lady eli , winner of the 2014 breeders’ cup juvenile fillies turf , and the grade 1 belmont oaks invitational stakes last year .
nor does lady eli go down to defeat very often . sent away the 1 - 2 favorite in a field of eight fillies and mares in the grade 1 , $ 350 , 000 jenny wiley , lady eli and jockey irad ortiz jr . appeared to have the 1 1 / 16 - mile turf race won with about 100 yards to go , having surged to the lead in mid - pack . but then dickinson , always just a few lengths off the pace , launched a final rally after angling off the rail and away from traffic to prevail by a head .
elmont , n . y . – lady eli’s road to recovery from laminitis will travel through kentucky as the undefeated 3 - year - old filly left belmont park on monday by van and was headed to dell ridge farm in lexington , where she will be turned out for two months .
it didn ' t take long to find out if he was right or not . eight days later , he entered the other filly , a daughter of divine park named lady eli , for her career debut , like tammy the torpedo , at 1 1 / 16 miles on grass .
the word was out on lady eli , who was bet down to 6 - 5 in her debut , and while on paper her nose victory looks as if she underachieved considering all the expectations , nothing could be farther from the truth . lady eli had a dreadful trip and looked hopelessly beaten in the stretch , but exhibited a monster turn of foot and great determination , exploding late to pluck victory from certain defeat . it was that turn of foot and determination that would become her trademark . one of the most remarkable careers , both on and off the racetrack had begun .
lady eli therefore has a highly distinguished female line for a filly who was sired at a fee of only $ 10 , 000 . her dam sacre coeur was bred by runnymede farm and catesby w . clay , who also bred lady eli . sacre coeur managed only three starts , all as a juvenile , but she won on turf and was well worth retaining by her breeders . she was foaled when her dam kazadancoa was 22 and was the last of her 13 named foals . no fewer than three of kazadancoa’s earlier foals–jacodra , jacodra’s devil and changing ways–had become graded winners .
ran off together early on in the belmont oaks , with lady zuzu getting the advantage to run a quarter in : 22 . 93 and a half in : 47 . 23 . three - quarters went in 1 : 11 . 71 and then lady eli took over for a 1 : 36 . 05 mile , en route to a final time of 1 : 59 . 27 for 1 1 / 4 miles on firm turf .
showing the turn of foot on grass that seems to be the hallmark of only the finest european performers , lady eli exploded through an opening inside into the stretch , seizing command in a flash . she went on to win decisively under regular jockey irad ortiz jr . , somehow managing to gain 2 1 / 2 lengths into a final quarter - mile that was run in an extremely fast 22 . 93 seconds . lady eli completed the mile in an equally sensational 1 : 33 . 41 , more than a full second faster than males went in the juvenile turf two races earlier .
thirteen months after her last start , sheep pond partners’ undefeated lady eli will look to make a triumphant return in saturday’s grade 2 , $ 400 , 000 woodford reserve ballston spa for fillies and mares 3 - years - old and up on the turf at saratoga race course on travers day .
lady eli has registered beyer speed figures of 90 - or - better in her last four starts , which have all come against stakes company . irad ortiz , jr . , who has been on the saddle for all six of her wins , will again have the call from post 3 .

rushing knows his way around special horses and jockeys and has been instrumental in turning ortiz into one of the best and most sought after riders in the country . rushing said lady eli hadn’t missed a beat , and ortiz has been on her in the morning during her comeback preparations at belmont park .
this year’s juvenile filly class lacks a clear - cut leader on dirt , and lady eli’s own credentials are redoubtable . her emergence also elevates the profile of airdrie stud stallion divine park , a talented grade 1 winner who had yet to sire a breakout performer during the early stages of his stud career .
for lady eli , it was just her second loss in nine career starts . she had missed more than a year after developing laminitis in the summer of 2015 . this year , she suffered her first defeat in the grade 2 ballston spa at saratoga before winning the grade 1 flower bowl at belmont .
the 123 - pound assignment given to lady eli on the jockey club’s experimental free handicap also put the daughter of divine park out of our saint ballado mare sacre coeur above all american colts excepting only champion american pharoah and breeders’ cup juvenile ( g1 ) winner texas red , who were rated at 126 .
owned by sheep pond partners , trained by chad brown and ridden all season by irad ortiz jr . , lady eli next scored in the miss grillo stakes ( g3 ) at the same distance on belmont park’s turf , with the chart noting that she won “going away” after a five - wide rally .
to survive the battle was an accomplishment . to return to training and train at a level prompting chad brown to point her directly to stakes competition is nothing short of remarkable ! this is an equine comeback for the books , regardless of where lady eli finishes in the grade ii woodford reserve ballston spa .
sheep pond partners ' lady eli will look to make a triumphant return to saratoga race course as one of two entries for trainer chad brown in the 79th running of the grade 1 , $ 500 , 000 diana for fillies and mares 3 - years - old and up on the turf on saturday .
in last year’s renewal of the gii ballston spa s . , lady eli was making her long awaited comeback from a life threatening illness and over a year on the sidelines . she finished a heart - breaking second to a longshot that day , but the fans still had eyes and cheers only for her .
lady eli was a $ 160 , 000 purchase by owner jay hanley of sheep pond from the keeneland april sale of 2 - year - olds in training this year when consigned by eddie woods . she had been pinhooked by bradley thoroughbreds for the same amount from runnymede farm at the 2013 keeneland september sale .
lady eli may not be done yet . though she is cataloged to be sold on wednesday at keeneland ' s november breeding stock sale , her owners said this week that if she was healthy , she most likely would be withdrawn and would race again next year . brown certainly hopes that ' s the case .
under a sharp ride from jockey paco lopez , dickinson stalked the early pace set by catch a glimpse . as the field hit the top of the stretch , dickinson swung wide out to the center of the course , and with a late surge got past lady eli at the wire to win by a head .
but lady eli , carrying the highweight of 123 pounds , showed the closing speed displayed in her grade 1 flower bowl win , with jockey irad ortiz , jr . going three - wide in deep stretch , outkicking both quidura and a charging antonoe from the rail to notch her ninth win in 12 career starts .
lady eli is a special kind of horse . she showed that both on and off the racecourse . despite her being an undefeated star , it would be hard to argue that her off - track accomplishments do not outweigh her lofty on - track ones . had it not been for a late - season , somewhat unexpected , surge by take charge brandi , lady eli surely would have been named the american champion two - year - old filly in 2014 , despite having not raced on dirt . yet , despite losing the eclipse award that season , she was still highly regarded , a fan favorite and somewhat of a people’s champion .
lady eli , a daughter of divine park , has won all six of her career starts , including a 2 3 / 4 - length victory in the belmont oaks , in which she defeated 13 rivals and ran nearly two seconds faster than did her male counterpart , force the pass , in winning the belmont derby .
before the start of the race , antonoe broke through the starting gate and galloped off down the stretch for about a sixteenth of a mile before jockey javier castellano could get her pulled up . lady eli ' s barrier also opened , but she was restrained by the assistant starter and only walked out of the box .
“right now i’m in good position with the filly , i have the luxury of either running her once more or just waiting for the breeders’ cup , ” said brown , who added that at the moment lady eli is still scheduled to be sold , after the breeders’ cup , at the keeneland november breeding stock sale .
brown then returned hanley ' s gratitude with his own champagne toast :
it ' s so important to have owners this committed be successful and bring more young people into the game ; guys who are willing to have the ups and downs and ride along with you , waiting for a horse like lady eli .
the winner of the 2015 belmont oaks a year ago was the splendid lady eli ( by divine park ) , a velvety smooth mover who had shown her athleticism at the 2014 keeneland april sale of 2 - year - olds in training , then proceeded to win every start in career . she is 6 for 6 .
now that you can see what laminitis is and what it does , you can better understand what lady eli and her team were up against . this filly has a fighting spirit , remained a good patient and , eventually , she turned the goal of survival into the goal of returning to training and ultimately the racetrack .
the undisputed darling of the american turf , lady eli was back to her tenacious best in saturday’s diana s . –the first of 17 grade is on the flat at saratoga this summer–as she looked pacesetting quidura in the eye with about 40 yards to race , pinned her ears and stuck her head across the wire first .
lady eli ( usa ) dkb / br . f , 2012 { 22 - d } dp = 6 - 1 - 9 - 2 - 0 ( 18 ) di = 1 . 77 cd = 0 . 61 - 14 starts , 10 wins , 3 places , 0 shows career earnings : $ 2 , 959 , 800
“she came back with a nice win off a long layoff , so we’re ready to go , ” trainer kiaran mclaughlin said . “the issue for everyone else in the race is that lady eli will be in the gate . it’s good for racing that she’s back . we’re just hoping to catch her . but we’re doing great .
rating far back early in her first try at 1 ¼ miles , runnymede - bred lady eli shifted wide around the far turn while rolling into high gear and thundered to the finish line unchallenged in the $ 1 million belmont oaks invitational ( g1 ) , defeating 13 strong rivals in 1 : 59 . 27 on july 4 .
take charge lady has also been responsible for a $ 2 . 2 million yearling ( 2012 filly , i’ll take charge ) and a $ 3 . 2 million weanling ( 2015 filly , lady take charge ) . overall , she has produced six winners from seven starters , one champion , and two grade 1 winners .
saratoga springs , n . y . - the sensational and beloved lady eli provided a perfect ending to saturday’s travers day program at saratoga when she surged through the final furlong to register a crowd - pleasing 1 1 / 2 - length victory over the pace - setting dickinson in the grade 2 , $ 400 , 000 ballston spa .
lady eli’s style of running is breathtaking to watch . she has a wicked turn of foot that was on display in her very first race . in her maiden outing last year at saratoga , she spurted free of two traffic jams in the stretch and unleashed a furious run that placed her nose on the wire ahead of nine rivals .
after winning her maiden despite a rough trip at saratoga and then taking the grade 3 miss grillo at belmont , lady eli displayed a turn of foot at santa anita more often associated with european grass horses to win the bc juvenile fillies turf by 2 3 / 4 lengths . that win boosted her career bankroll to $ 719 , 800 .
the thompsons , who race and breed under the moniker cheveley park stud , gave stoute the green light , and queen ' s trust , under frankie dettori , backed up her trainer ' s confidence with a thrilling late run to nose out the favored lady eli in the $ 2 million filly and mare turf at santa anita on saturday .
but after long layoff to recover from laminitis contracted after that belmont oaks performance , lady eli has gradually worked her way back in , having breezed six times on the turf since july 3 . the last of her four works on the oklahoma turf came saturday , when the dark bay filly breezed five furlongs in 1 : 01 . 06 .

this is the most majestic and biggest of all philippine hornbills – the great rufous hornbill , buceros hydrocorax . hornbills are the best , cheapest and the most natural way to re - grow our forests : they are “ farmers of the forests ” as hornbills distribute the seeds of the fruits they fed on . hornbills are characterized by the huge and often colourful bills and they have this fascinating breeding behaviour of sealing the female inside holes of giant trees , while the male gathers food for the female and the chicks . sadly , hornbill populations are declining due to habitat loss resulting to unavailability of huge nesting trees , poaching for the pet trade and hunting for food .
6 / 2 in the morning we checked out from our hotel and continued our trip to banaue located close to mount polis in the cordillera mountains . before we started our trip to banaue we went to the same spot as we ended with last evening to make a go for the spotted wood - kingfisher we had heard earlier . on our way to the location a small group of rufous coucal was making their way along the roadside and this time we saw the birds really well . the spotted wood - kingfisher responded to our playback but totally refused to show itself , all we saw was a quick glimpse of a bird flying over the dirt road and immediately disappear in the forest not showing itself anymore . we also tried to play - back a couple of plain bush - hen into sight but we did not succeed to see them , even though they were quite close to us in the high grass next to the road .
after the siesta we went out to look for our major target species for the area , the green racquet - tail . nicky took us to a road where the species is known to occur in the surrounding forest and we walked along the asphalted road listening for the contact call of the bird . the walk along the road produced several nice observations of different species new to the group , several green imperial - pigeon were eating fruit in a tree providing good views through the spotting scopes and a blue - naped parrot got our attention sitting in a tree just by the road and could be seen at very close range . further along the road a couple of rufous coucal played hide and seek with us and just a couple of us managed to see brief glimpses of them before they decided to fly of again in the undervegetaion . further up along the road we had close and nice views of some very nicely coloured yellow - breasted fruit - dove .
22 / 2 at 5 . 00 a . m . nicky woke us up hearing a philippine hawk - owl not far from our camp . we grabbed our binoculars and head - lamps and follow him to the spot where the owl had been heard . nicky play - backed for the owl and suddenly it dropped down just a few meters away from us , looking a bit puzzled in the spotlight . it sat there for maybe 30 seconds and then flew away to a branch higher up in a tree , looking at us from above . on the way back to the camp for breakfast we stopped and looked at a male blue - breasted flycatcher singing just by the camp . after breakfast we again walked the trail from yesterday . much better light this time and we saw yellow - bellied whistler , olive - backed flowerpecker , luzon striped - babbler , golden - crowned babbler and yellowish white - eye . we also heard species like philippine hawk - cuckoo , brush cuckoo and violet cuckoo .

the ioc world bird list is an open access resource of the international community of ornithologists . our goal is to facilitate worldwide communication in ornithology and conservation based on an up - to - date classification of world birds and a set of english names that follows explicit guidelines for spelling and construction ( gill & wright 2006 ) .
the ioc editorial team and advisors update the web - based list quarterly . the updates include changes of recommended names or classification , additions of newly described species , corrections of nomenclature , and updates of species taxonomy .
the ioc world bird list complements other primary world bird lists that differ slightly in their primary goals and taxonomic philosophy , i . e . the clements checklist of the birds of the world , the howard & moore complete checklist of the birds of the world , 4 th edition , and hbw alive / bird life international . improved alignment of these independent taxonomic works is a goal of the newly structured international ornithologists union , including a round table discussion at the 2018 meeting in vancouver , british columbia .

justification : this species has a very large range , and hence does not 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 appears to be stable , and hence the species does not approach the thresholds for vulnerable 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 species is found in the southern philippines , on the islands of samar , dinagat , siargao , camiguin sur , mindanao , basilan , talaud and the sulu archipelago .
the global population size has not been quantified , but the species is described as generally uncommon on the philippines and generally common on talaud island ( del hoyo et al . 2006 ) . trend justification : the population is suspected to be stable in the absence of evidence for any declines or substantial threats .

this is a falcated ground - babbler , one of the most gorgeous and most sought - after palawan endemics . this lowland , uncommon and very secretive skulker prefers to stay near the ground in dense foliage , turning leaves and dried litter in search of small invertebrates and grubs . this endemic has a loud , conspicuous song consisting of melodious whistles and babbling notes will often respond to playback . hear it for yourself . 🙂
this is a custom 30 - day trip for a group of excellent swedish birders who visited the philippines early this year . the trip report was written by fredrik rudzki , with photos from anita ericson and roger holmberg , all tour participants . this group of swedish birders all belong to sweden’s club 300 , an elite group of swedish birders who aim to see and learn sweden’s rarest birds . 🙂
luzon , mindanao , bohol , cebu , negros and palawan 11 / 2 - 12 / 3 2012 by fredrik rudzki .
general in 2010 the idea to arrange a private trip to the philippines was raised by anita ericson and sören strandberg . it is a well known fact that the nature and wildlife on the philippine islands are disappearing quite rapidly and the idea with this trip was to travel the islands of luzon , mindanao , bohol , cebu , negros and palawan for one month , trying to see as much as possible of the avifauna on these islands as possible .
the company birding adventure philippines was used as tour operator arranging all logistics and providing a superb guide during the whole trip in the form of nicky icarangal . the company offers standard birding trips to the main islands of the philippines but they also arrange custom trips to basically any part of the philippines a person can think of . during the whole trip all logistics worked perfectly and nicky took great care to ensure a safe journey with really good birding . if you consider going to the philippines i would highly recommend the company , the staff and nicky as a premier choice . information about the company can be found on the web - site urltoken .
itinerary 10 / 2 - 11 / 2 in the evening anita , sören , bo , anders and i met at arlanda for the air china flight to beijing . the flight took eight and a half hours and we arrived punctually in the following morning . michael who had traveled from landvetter joined the group just an hour or so after us . in beijing we had to spend nine hours for the connecting flight to manila , most of this time spent at pizza hut . during this time i had pizza for lunch and also a pizza for the afternoon snack before the five hour trip to manila . we arrived in manila shortly after 23 . 00 p . m . and were met by adrian from birding adventure philippines , taking us to the midas hotel and casino for an overnight stay , not far from the airport .
the trip continued to subic bay which we arrived in the afternoon . we still had some daylight left so we spent a couple of hours birding the area from the car . at one site we heard the calls of a green racquet - tail in flight but no one could see the bird . here we also had our first view of a coleto sitting openly in the late afternoon sunlight . in a couple of wooden telephone poles several pairs of sooty as well as white - bellied woodpeckers nested . the birds were not shy at all and we had very good looks of these birds . getting dark , we decided to quit for the day and head to mountain woods resort , a very nice hotel which we stayed at during our time in subic .
15 / 2 a good part of the morning was spent in an area called hill 394 where a trail was leading through secondary forest . the trail was not very difficult to walk and during the walk we had nice views of philippine falconet , pompadour green - pigeon , blackish cuckoo - shrike , balicassiao , white - lored oriole , stripe - headed rhabdornis and coleto . apparently this had been an area were white - fronted tit had been seen in past times but we did not manage to see any at all . according to nicky this was a species that had become increasingly difficult to see in this particular area .
on our way for lunch we stopped to watch a colony with several thousands of flying foxes , in this particular colony large flying foxes and golden - crowned flying foxes were residing . continuing our way to our lunch restaurant we stopped for a whiskered treeswift sitting close by the road on a telephone line . after lunch and on our way to our hotel for a siesta , we briefly stopped by a colony with blue - throated bee - eater . the colony was located just by the roadside and we could watch the birds sunbathing from close distance sitting in our mini - bus . before the siesta several of us took the opportunity to have a swim in the hotel pool and catch some sunshine , very welcomed after a very long , cold and dark swedish winter .
it was now getting late and we started to think that the green racquet - tail would be a no show for us , but suddenly nicky signalled to us that he heard the call of a bird and it was coming from a tree just close by the road . we had a very good view of the treetop since it was just at eye - level , the tree growing on a steep slope beneath the road . every one was scanning the tree for movements and suddenly michael announced that he had seen something moving . everyone stared to look at the point where he had seen the movement and suddenly a green racquet - tail showed up on a branch with thick green leaves , not even fifty meters from where we were standing . all of us were happy to see this species at this close range and everyone had good views of the bird with the racquets clearly seen from our close distance . the bird was not disturbed by our presence at all and stayed for more than twenty minutes before it decided to fly away , returning again to a tree close by maybe ten minutes later .
the trip to banaue was quite uneventful with just a couple of stops along the way . at some stretches the road conditions were quite poor and road works were quite common along the way slowing us down on our way . at 18 . 15 p . m we arrived at banaue and checked in at banaue hotel and youth hostel , a massive building with a really impressive ceiling height . after checking in , we all headed to the dining room and enjoyed the buffèt accompanied of course by some red horse beer . leaving a sunny subic bay , the weather higher up in the mountains were now rainy and considerably colder than in the lowlands .
back at the hotel we continued with some bird watching from our balconies rendering species like scale - feathered malkoha , olive - backed sunbird , house swift and glossy swiftlet . a blue rock - thrush was also discovered residing in the hotel garden and on the hotel roof . since the rain continued the whole afternoon we did not make any more attempts to do any serious birding and we all had an early evening going to bed after dinner .
quite happy with the birding , we headed down to our hotel and since it did not rain michael took the opportunity to try the hotel pool . like yesterday we had a nice dinner and went to bed early .
19 / 2 this day was basically a long transportation day where our mini - bus took us north to the city of tuguegarao close by the northern sierra madres mountain range . quite a buzzling city where we stayed at hotel roma .
21 / 2 it was raining when we woke up 5 . 30 a . m . the next morning and it was still raining after we had finished our breakfast . we started to walk the trail up on the mountain side and had observations of philippine trogon , philippine fairy - bluebird , amethyst brown - dove , greater flameback and lemon - throated leaf - warbler . a whiskered pitta was heard from some distance and a luzon bleeding - heart was glimpsed by some of the participants when nicky flushed a bird walking along the trail . the rain had continued from the morning onwards up to lunchtime and the bird activity had been quite low , the birds were there but it was difficult to see them good due to the rainy mist . since everyone where quite soaked we therefore decided to quit early and head back to camp . since the rain continued into the evening no more attempts were made that day for bird watching .
24 / 2 this day was basically a travel day when we flew back from tuguegarao to manila and checked in to midas hotel and casino . here we took the opportunity to dry our clothes and other belongings using our room balconies taking advantage of the afternoon sunshine . a really good thing with the midas hotel and casino was the dinner buffét , eat as much as you want of fantastic sushi , grilled meat and fish and a fantastic choice of cheese and deserts , not a bad end following a couple of days out in the bush !
25 / 2 this day was also much of a travel day . we took the morning flight from manila to cagayan de oro located on the island of mindanao were we continued the trip with two mini - buses getting us to the village of damitan . at damitan we unloaded our stuff and changed vehicle to a 4x4 truck , us sitting on the back , taking us close to mount kitangland and del monte lodge for a couple of days stay . the truck did not get us the whole way , instead we had an hour walk up to the lodge with our luggage carried by horses . at the lodge nicky’s colleague adrian waited for us , welcoming us with coffee and cold drinks . to ensure that everyone had enough space an additional three large tents had been raised to be used for some of us .
27 / 2 seeing both the eagle and the apo sunbird yesterday we decided to walk up to the viewpoint and see what birds we could see on the way there . it was rather cloudy with occasional rain and the bird activity was much lower than the day before . we stopped at the site for the red - eared parrotfinch and after much play - back a bird showed itself quickly in the open just in front of us before quickly flying away again , a nice bird for those who could see it well . the eagle was also to be seen from the viewpoint , somewhat better observations today than yesterday due to the lack of sunshine . after lunch it started to rain and we headed back to the lodge , on the way having the fortune to see stripe - breasted rhabdornis and also several mindanao racquet - tails flying over our heads , quite a nice end of the day .
28 / 2 our stay at del monte lodge was over and today we continued our trip to bislig and the picop area . before we left the lodge we play - backed and managed to see a long - tailed ground - warbler really well in the small forest in front of the lodge .
the journey to bislig started at 8 . 00 a . m . , us being picked up first by the 4x4 truck and later by our mini - buses , finally arriving in city at 19 . 00 p . m . the concrete roads were in a very poor condition making the average travel speed very low . after a tiresome trip without any birding along the way we reached bislig and checked in to the paper country inn .
on our way home we stopped by a pond to look for silvery kingfisher . unfortunately some kids were fishing at the pond so no birds were to be seen but bo had a new lifer in the form of a dollarbird sitting in a treetop near by . we continued to another pond and it did not take long before bo discovered a silvery kingfisher sitting openly on a branch of fallen tree in the water close to us .
the day ended with an effort to play for giant scops - owl . no scops - owl could be seen but instead we managed to see a couple of philippine hawk - owl responding very well to our play - back . nicky also discovered a colugo climbing a tree - trunk , a much appreciated sighting by the group .
2 / 3 this day was a long travel day taking us to the island of bohol in the visayan islands . we had an early start at 3 . 00 a . m . and were driven on roads that for long distances were in really poor condition until 7 . 00 a . m . we finally reached the city of davao . we had breakfast at jollibee and then headed to the airport for destination manila where roger left us , going back to sweden . the rest of us continued to taglibaran on bohol which we reached in the afternoon . we were met by our hired cars and driven to our hotel located at the famous chocolate hills , on the way making a quick detour to the entrance of rajah sikatuna national park where we took a short walk on the paved road to see if we could spot some birds perched for the night in the surrounding trees . with no particular luck we continued and finally after a long days journey reached our hotel .
the ferry from taglibaran to cebu city took two hours and we arrived at montebello resorts in the afternoon . cebu city is the second largest city in the philippines and now bo had the opportunity to buy a new pair of binoculars since his old par had been broken a couple of days earlier . after finding a suitable pair we had dinner at pizza hut before heading back to our hotel for the night .
back at our mini - bus we took farewell of oking , jake and the dog and started our trip back to cebu city . due to the raining the dirt road was very slippery and we all had to get out of the mini - bus and push it up along the steep road . oking was very helpful and followed our way up with his motorcycle until he saw that we were ok and headed back home again . we reached our nice hotel at 17 . 00 p . m . , had a nice dinner and an early evening
we stayed until 12 . 30 p . m and returned back to cebu city . we had a seafood lunch on our way to the airport and then entered our turbo - prop airplane to the island of negros . we arrived in the afternoon and were picked up by our cars which took us to a place nicky called tabucol bird sanctuary , a privately owned property containing a small remnant of undisturbed lowland jungle were we resided during our stay at the island . the owner is a personal friend to nicky and he welcomed us warmly offering us a late dinner by the poolside , a really nice end of the day .
7 / 3 another long travel day was in front of us . we left the bird sanctuary at 8 . 00 a . m . thanking nickys friend for all his hospitality and generosity , letting us use the cabins on the property and share this special place not open to the public . we left negros and flew to manila to catch the flight to puerto princesa on palawan . from puerto princesa we had a long trip on the road to sabang , a small village situated on the west coast of the island . we arrived in the evening to the fantastic hotel dalyan beach and mountain resort , conveniently located just by the beach . the rooms we had were very spacious and the day ended with a really nice dinner at the hotels restaurant combined with several pilsen beers .
8 / 3 early in the morning after breakfast we took two outriggers to puerto princesa underground river national park , a twenty minute boat - ride from the small harbour in sabang . we were all alone at the site since it was too early for the large crowds of tourist that turns up later in the morning going for the boat - rides into the cave system . we went up to the ranger station , looking at the really large monitor lizards which are to be seen around the resting area on the way .

this calling whiskered pitta measures 9 inches and is a highly localized and uncommon luzon endemic . it is the largest pitta in the philippines ( second largest is this equally stunning steere’s ( azure - breasted ) pitta ) , ) and can be found in the mid to high elevation forests of the sierra madres , cordilleras in luzon . it is almost twice the size of the smaller but similarly - looking red - bellied pitta , click for the video here ) , and prefers to stay in the ground , turning up leaf and forest floor litter in search of worms , insects and other small invertebrates .
this was taken last march in wet and rainy camp sawa , northern luzon with a group of singaporean birders . check out nicky’s hand - held video at around 1 : 20 with a small compact point and shoot canon s95 . 🙂 whiskered pitta , pitta kochi camp sawa , penablanca protected landscape , cagayan , philippines
