DORNOCH GUTS IT OUT IN
SCRATCH-DEPLETEDFOUNTAIN OF YOUTH

Dornoch | Ryan Thompson

by Alan Carasso
When entries were taken Feb. 24, the $400,000 GII Coolmore
Fountain of Youth S. looked a tantalizing race in prospect, given
the presence of 'TDN Rising Star' Locked (Gun Runner)--the
GI Claiborne Breeders' Futurity hero and GI Breeders' Cup
Juvenile third--and the resurgent GII Remsen S. winner Dornoch(Good Magic), not to mention a pair of clearly talented andunexposed rivals in the form of big-figure maiden winner Speak
Easy (Constitution) and Victory Avenue (Arrogate), a close
second that afternoon.
By mid-morning Saturday, Locked and Victory Avenue had
been scratched, and Speak Easy--at the time around 6-5 second
favorite--got loose behind the gate and was also withdrawn
prior to the start. When the dust had settled, Dornoch was the
1-5 mortal against just four apparently overmatched rivals topick up the 50 Kentucky Derby points on offer to the winner,and the full-brother to 2023 GI Kentucky Derby winner Mageduly obliged, albeit in workmanlike fashion.
Drawn the rail, Le Dom Bro (Mucho Macho Man), beaten 30plus lengths in the Remsen and runner-up to Frankie's Empire(Classic Empire) in the Feb. 3 Swale S., was hard sent for thelead, but Luis Saez was equally positive aboard Dornoch, who
made the front after a furlong and a half. Cont. p3

DETERMINISTIC FIRES FRESH IN GOTHAM
Deterministic (Liam's Map), tabbed as a 'TDN Rising Star' in avisually impressive, come-from-behind debut score after a slow
start going seven furlongs at Saratoga Aug. 12, fired fresh off thebench to capture Saturday's GIII Gotham S. at a rain-soaked
Aqueduct.
Working up a storm for trainer Christophe Clement this winterat Payson Park in Florida, including a five-furlong bullet in 1:01
4/5 (1/8) Feb. 17, Deterministic was well supported at odds of
7-2 here.
The $625,000 KEESEP yearling purchase raced in an inside fifth
over the sloppy going as longshot Maximus Meridius (Maximus
Mischief) led the way through an opening quarter in :23.42.
Ridden along by Joel Rosario in fourth rounding the far turn,narrow GIII Withers S. runner-up El Grande O (Take ChargeIndy) began to turn the screws on the pacesetter as favored Justa Touch (Justify) began to wind up with a move of his own on
the extreme outside. Cont. p6

Pedigree Notes:
Donegal Racing paid $90,000 for Puca at the 2013 Keeneland
September sale, and they knew a little bit about the family, as
the syndicate campaigned her half-brother Finnegans Wake
(Powerscourt {GB}), who was third to Hansen (Tapit) in the 2012
GIII Gotham S., but was runner-up in that year's GI Secretariat S.
and would go on to become a Grade I winner on the turf. Puca
would finish second in the 2015 GII Gazelle S. and became astakes winner in late 2017 before changing hands for $275,000
at that year's Keeneland November sale.

Nicole Thomas

Among the first mares bred to Gun Runner, Puca returned to
KEENOV and fetched $475,000 from Robert Clay's Grandview
Equine in the fall of 2018. The resulting foal was a $70,000
buyback at Keeneland September in 2020, but the filly Gunninghas punched well above her weight, with a pair of stakesplacings and earnings approaching $280,000, not to mention not
the considerable pedigree updates that have since occurred.
A $235,000 KEESEP yearling turned $290,000 Fasig-Tipton
Midlantic juvenile, Mage was fourth in last year's Fountain ofYouth off his maiden win and runner-up in the GI Florida Derby
before being draped with the blanket of roses at Churchill. Also
runner-up in the GI Haskell S., Mage now holds court at Airdrie
Stud.
The current 2-year-old out of Puca, a colt by McKinzie, washammered down to Mayberry Farm for $1.2 million at
Keeneland September last fall, and a few months later, John
Stewart acquired the mare privately carrying a full-sibling toMage and Dornoch for $2.9 million at Keeneland November. As
disclosed in the Resolute Farm mating plans feature, Puca isslated to visit Into Mischief this season.

FIONA'S MAGIC WIRES DAVONA DALE AT
9-1; CHAMPION JUST F Y I SCRATCHED WITH
FEVER by Jill Williams
Stonehedge LLC's homebred Fiona's Magic (f, 3, St Patrick'sDay--Mollie's Magic, by Factum) was catapulted into the
spotlight on a Saturday reeling from several pre-race scratchesof major players in significant graded events. Gulfstream Park's
GII Davona Dale S. presented by FanDuel TV, a Road to the
Kentucky Oaks race worth $200,000 as well as points on a50-25-15-10-5 scale, was not immune as Eclipse champion and
GI Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies winner Just F Y I (Justify)
developed a fever Saturday morning after shipping to
Gulfstream from Payson Park. She was scratched just hours
before what was to be her much-anticipated 3-year-old debut
by her Hall of Fame trainer, Bill Mott.
AShe was fine, but she spiked a fever and her temperature has
just kept going up,@ said Mott.
Undefeated 'TDN Rising Star' and former $1.15-million
Keeneland September yearling Leslie's Rose (Into Mischief),
who had been expected to mount the most serious challenge inthe field to Just F Y I, inherited the mantle of heavy favoritism in
the Davona Dale, but it was an under-the-radar Fiona's Magic at
9-1 who prevailed.

Davona Dale S. cont.
A winner of two straight late last year while sprinting over thissurface, Fiona's Magic made her sophomore debut with arunner-up finish in the Feb. 3 GIII Forward Gal S. at sevenfurlongs after relinquishing the lead at the top of the stretch to R
Harper Rose (Khozan).
With expectations weighing on Leslie's Rose in the Davona
Dale, Fiona's Magic popped out of the gate on top as 'TDN
Rising Star' and Glitter Woman S. winner Into Champagne (Into
Mischief) took a right turn before recovering to pressure fromthird as Cash Run S. runner-up Queen's Martini (Mucho Macho
Man) tracked and Leslie's Rose found a sweet spot in the clear infourth. Fiona's Magic was left alone for the :24.59 first quarterand was still running easily without a threat by the time the half
was clocked in :47.47.

Fiona's Magic | Lauren King

Tyler Gaffalione on the winner still rode confidently rounding
the turn and began pumping his mount with gusto into thestretch as Leslie's Rose advanced and tried to find a seam totheir inside. Irad Ortiz, Jr. couldn't quite get through on thefavorite and shifted out, but Leslie's Rose was left with too muchto do and could only muster third behind a driving Fiona's Magic
and Into Champagne, who briefly looked a winner but couldn't
match the determination of Fiona's Magic and settled for second
by a half-length. Fiona's Magic covered the one-turn mile in
1:37.16.
Winning trainer Michael Yates also upset this race last year at46-1 with Dorth Vader (Girvin), whose best finish to eventual
divisional champion Pretty Mischievous (Into Mischief) in threetries as the season unfolded was a second in the GI Acorn S.
AI didn=t give Tyler any instructions [Saturday],@ said Yates. AI
said, >Ride the race how it comes up.=@Yates did not have a plan for Fiona's Magic immediately
following the race.

SUNDAY • MARCH 3, 2024

A[We=ll] enjoy today and talk about the rest tomorrow. I
thought she was very capable of it. She=s been coming along
steadily.@Pedigree Notes:
Fiona's Magic becomes the first stakes winner for St Patrick'sDay, a full-brother to Triple Crown winner American Pharoah.
She's a member of the first crop of the Journeyman Stallionsbased sire, as well as just the second black-type winner for
Factum as a broodmare sire. The latter's other stakes winner is
Fiona's Magic's half-brother Cajun's Magic (Cajun Breeze).
The unraced Mollie's Magic has a 2-year-old colt named
Blazing Hot (Khozan) and a yearling full-brother to Cajun's

Waiting until the last possible moment in what ended as a
blanket finish, Starting Over won his first graded stakes in the
GII Mac Diarmida S. at Gulfstream Park on Saturday afternoon.
A budding distance specialist, the grey was making his second
start in his current form cycle after taking home the Colonial Cup
at Colonial Downs last summer. The Mike Maker trainee was last
seen as the runner-up in the GIII W.L. McKnight S. going 12
furlongs over the grass in Hallandale Jan. 27.
Overlooked at odds of 11-1, the gelding was content to settle
near the rear as the field passed the grandstand for the firsttime. Starting Over was given his cue while in the three path justbefore the far turn, fanned towards the center of the course at
the top of the lane and he snatched the hardware from Tawny
Port with a strong late turn of foot .

The top bid during the 2024 Fasig-Tipton February Digital Sale
was made by John Stewart's Resolute Bloodstock, who parted
with $370,000 for Pounce, a maiden winner at first asking for
Quintessential Racing Florida LLC and Hat Creek Racing and thistrainer on the dirt at Churchill Nov. 19, an even sixth from adifficult high draw in a one-mile allowance over the Turfway
synthetic Dec. 13 and the front-running winner of her turf debut
from an equally awkward draw Feb. 11. Returning just 11 days
after changing hands digitally Feb. 11, the bay validated theoutlay with a late-on-the-scene victory in the
GIII Herecomesthebride S.

Pounce | CoglianeseWith no luck at the draw yet again, Pounce was wisely taken
hold of by Javier Castellano and angled over to the inside tocaboose the field--led by Mystic Lake (Mo Town)--into the first
turn. Content to trail down the back, Pounce was quietly ridden
through the middle furlongs as market leaders Life's an Audible
and Ozara raced handier to the speed.
Pounce began to thread the needle three furlongs out,
splitting horses on a couple of occasions before angling out forthe drive under a full head of steam. Life's an Audible also kicked
nicely as Ozara failed to go on, but Pounce sprinted slightly thebetter of the two and was home narrowly best.

SUNDAY • MARCH 3, 2024

ALast time she broke good and I sent her to the lead, wire-towire,@ Castellano said. AIt was a different ballgame today theway I handicapped the race. I was way outside with a lot of
speed in the race. My goal was to save ground on the first turnbut he didn=t break good out of the gate and I used my best
judgment to drop in and save all the ground I could on the firstturn because in my mind I=d have to lose ground turning forhome. It was a beautiful trip. [Life=s an Audible] came out a little
bit and my horse hesitated a little bit to go past, but I
encouraged her and she responded really well.@Pedigree Notes:
Pounce is the first foal and only starter for her winning dam, a$170,000 OBS April breezer, who was purchased by Joshua
Deets for $37,000 with this filly in utero at the 2020 Keeneland
November Sale.
A half-sister to a pair of black-type performers, including GIII

Evidently a fan of a moisture-filled surface, Super Chow waged
a war through the slop and collected his second graded stakes
trophy in a row at a thoroughly soaked Big A on Saturday.
The 4-year-old, who has not missed hitting the board in his last
seven attempts, has posted solid speed figures in his last pair ofraces. He was second against optional claimers at Gulfstream
Park on Christmas Eve with a 96 Beyer, and then returned with a
95 Beyer when he went gate to wire over a muddy Aqueduct
strip in the GIII Toboggan S. Feb. 3.
Serving as the 5-2 second choice, the dark bay showed dogged
determination to secure the front, but Rotknee (Runhappy) had
the same idea. The pair dueled into the far turn and entering thestretch it looked as though the battle would last all the way to
the wire. However, Super Chow found another gear, fought theurge to drift too much past the eighth pole and outlasted hisrivals.
"It was a really good performance,@ said trainer Jorge Delgado.
AI give all the credit to the jockey Madison Olver. She rode thehorse the way that she wanted, I think in the end that was thebest decision. I was a little scared when I saw him go 22 on thiskind of racetrack, but she figured it out I guess, and she felt
comfortable doing that and won. I give all of the praise to her,
she's been galloping the horse every day since he got to New
York. She got really close to the horse and they're doing pretty
well.
"I'm going to check the condition book and see what they have
before May 15. Then he will head to Monmouth. He's in really
good condition right now and I'm trying to take advantage of hisform."
Pedigree Notes:
The sire of four crops of racing before he sadly passed away,
Lord Nelson's other graded stakes winner is GII Prioress S.
victress Alva Starr. The winner's dam is a half-sister to GI Acorn
S. heroine Carina Mia (Malibu Moon), who went to Shadai Farmfor $2.6 million during the 2021 Fasig-Tipton November Sale
with a filly by Uncle Mo in-utero. Bonita Mia is responsible for a
2-year-old colt by Into Mischief, a yearling filly by Authentic andshe returned to the multiple leading sire for this term. Super
Chow's unraced second dam Miss Simpatia is a full-sister to apair of Argentinian champions--Miss Linda (Arg) and Mr. Nacho(Arg).

Emmanuel left there running for Irad Ortiz, Jr. and was part ofthe early scrimmage for the lead, but things got just a bit dicey
when Smokin T (War Front) was steadied off the heels of thepacesetting Saratoga Flash (Laoban). That got Emmanuel fired
up some for a few strides, but he came back nicely to his rider
and settled one out and one back entering the backstretch.
Settled on the back of longshot Napoleonic War (War Front)
passing the half-mile marker, Emmanuel was eased out into thethree path and tugged his way towards the lead without being
asked to do so. Up to collar Saratoga Flash outside the eighthpole, Emmanuel dug in gamely and was able to withstand flying
finishes from Siege of Boston and Ice Chocolat for the victory.
A slow-starting seventh in last year's GI Maker's Mark Mile at

Hard Cloth, also responsible for Emmanuel's 3-year-old fullbrother Causeway's Jewel, was purchased by Gainesway Farmfor $550,000 at the 2022 Keeneland November Sale. The
aforementioned Trensa was knocked down to Larkin Armstrong
for $270,000 in foal to Hard Spun at the same auction. Hard

He may be a ways from Hall of Famer Bill Mott's record ofeight, but trainer Chad Brown made it three years in a row in
Gulfstream's GIII Honey Fox S. when Chili Flag (Fr) crossed thewire first Saturday. Her win also marked Brown's fourth in the$150,000 event in the last six years.
The 11 fillies or mares lined up for the Honey Fox broke in aneven line before Time Passage (Tunwoo) and For the Flag (Uncle
Mo) emerged from the early fray. Lost in battle, the two pulledaway by daylight while throwing down early fractions of :23.31
and :45.53. Far back and third-last early, Chili Flag geared up for
an assault on the turn. With massive strides while extremely
wide, she mowed down the field as the frontrunners raised thewhite flag. Walkathon, winner of the GIII Endeavor S. a monthago, chased her home, also from far back, while Ancient Peace,
who had been prominent in the second flight throughout, held
her position and saved third. Final time for the mile on the grass
was 1:32.78.
Jockey Irad Ortiz, Jr., aboard Chili Flag, won his fifth race on
the Gulfstream card, which included the GIII Canadian Turf S.

towards the back of the field as California raider Angel
Nadeshiko (Carpe Diem) opened a long lead passing the stands
for the first time. Switched off nicely through the middle stagesof the 11-furlong contest, R Calli Kim traveled three to four lanes
off the inside and with cover on the back of Anatolian as they

ESKENDEREYA PASSES AWAY IN JAPANEskendereya (Giant's Causeway--Aldebaran Light, by SeattleSlew), whose son Mitole was the leading freshman sire of 2023
by winners and progeny earnings, died of heart failure Mar. 2 at
Shichinohe Stallion Station in Japan, where he had beenstanding since 2016. He was 17 years of age.
Bred in Kentucky by Sanford Robertson, Eskendereya waspurchased by Zayat Stables for $250,000 at the 2008 Keeneland
September sale. Turned over to Todd Pletcher, the chestnut
broke his maiden in a rained-off renewal of the 2009 Pilgrim S.
and switched to the synthetic for that year's GI Breeders' Cup
Juvenile, finishing ninth. He was perfect in three starts at three,including romping scores in the GII Fountain of Youth S. and GI
Wood Memorial S., but he suffered a leg injury leading up to the2010 GI Kentucky Derby and entered stud at Taylor Made
Stallions the following year. He retired with a record of 4-1-0
from six starts for earnings of $725,700.

R Calli Kim, a half-sister to the multiple graded stakes-winningturf distaffer Temple City Terror (Temple City), had made 12 ofher 14 career appearances on the grass, but broke her maiden
for $16,000 on the dirt on debut back in 2020. A four-race
winning streak that begam with a 1 1/4-length tally against$32,000 claimers at Saratoga last July 23 was capped by a2 1/2-length success in the Nov. 12 GIII Long Island S., a race
won by her half-sister in 2022. The 7-year-old was looking toatone for a runner-up effort in this track's GIII La Prevoyante S.

NEW SYNTHETIC TAPETA TRAINING TRACKOPENS AT SANTA ANITANew Tapeta track at Santa Anita | Benoit

Edited Press Release
Santa Anita Park has opened its all-new synthetic Tapeta innertraining track manufactured by Maryland-based Tapeta
Footings, Inc., effective Saturday morning.
Following the Breeders= Cup, the 'Great Race Place' embarked
upon an $8 million project to provide horsemen with astate-of-the-art all-weather surface that will complement its
one-mile natural dirt main track and serve as a safe and viable
component in the conditioning of Thoroughbreds on a yearround basis.
AAt Tapeta, our aim is to maintain the surface so that we havea soft cushion below and a slightly firmer finish on top,@ said
Joan Wakefield, of Tapeta Footings. AThis helps to reduce
kickback and provide stability without as much impact on thehorse. For the training track at Santa Anita, we have used a hightemperature wax specially blended to suit the California
climate.@Santa Anita=s original training track, AAnita Chiquita,@ waseliminated in the early 1970s when construction began on what
is now The Shops at Santa Anita Mall which adjoins the racetrack
off of Baldwin Ave. Subsequently, Santa Anita=s current innertraining track was constructed at that time. At 4,200 feet, it isjust shy of 6 1/2 furlongs in circumference.
AWe are delighted to have finished construction on this very
important project and I know our horsemen are anxious to begin
utilizing it,@ said Santa Anita Senior Vice President and General
Manager Nate Newby. AIt=s been a major undertaking and weare so fortunate to have the project headed up by Dennis andRob Moore along with Jesse Martinez.@

against a starter allowance field.
ATom [Kagele] and I talked to each other after the race and weboth agreed,@ Miller told the Paulick Report after the race. AWesaid, >It=s time, he=s done enough. He=s sound, healthy, andhappy. Let=s not push the envelope.=@
The gelding retired with a record of 46-13-9-7 and earnings ofover $2.1m.
ACZ was a special horse that took us to two great finishes in the
Breeders= Cup and became one of the best claims of all times,@
said Miller, who also donated Stormy Liberal (Stormy Atlantic) to
Old Friends in 2019. AHe was a pleasure to be around and train.
We chose Old Friends for his retirement because of the care andlove these horses receive and the chance for the public to visit
and enjoy this magnificent animal as much as we did.@C Z Rocket arrives at Old Friends

Owned in partnership by Woodford Racing, West Point

Sunday at Gulfstream Park for trainer Shug McGaughey. The fullsister to MGSW/GISP and $1.5m FTSAUG yearling First Captainnearly topped 2022's Fasig-Tipton Saratoga Select Yearling Sale
when selling for $2-million. Dam America, herself a gradedstakes winner and dual Grade-I placed, last went through theauction ring late last year at FTKNOV but failed to meet her
reserve at $1.2-million. She also RNA'd for $3.1m at FTKNOV
back in 2019. The family has produced plenty of pricey horses
including America's half-sister Paris Bikini (Bernardini) who
brought $1.95m at FTKNOV in 2020 and that mare's daughter,
GISW Paris Lights (Curlin), who went to Spendthrift Farm on a
final bid of $3.1m at KEENOV in 2021. TJCIS PPS

Jody=s Pride opened her 2024 with style here as she outgamed
Carmelina to claim her first stakes win of the season in theBusher S.
A dirt horse by accident after her maiden turf dash debut Aug.
9 at Saratoga was brought off the grass and she dominated by
10 1/2 lengths, it was a similar story for the Matron S. in her
second start Oct. 8 when that six-panel sprint also came off theturf and again sent Jody=s Pride to the winner=s enclosure.
Intentionally entered in the GI Breeders= Cup Juvenile Fillies
going long on the main track at Santa Anita Park, she continued
her improvement to come a neck short of catching champion
MGISW Just F Y I (Justify) at 17-1 odds.
Returning at a one-turn mile, and greeting a rainy New Yorkday, the 4-5 favorite stalked Carmelina as she rolled through:23.62 and :46.81 early splits. Making a bid entering the bend,
Jody=s Pride had come on even terms with that leader from thesix path as they swung into the upper stretch. The fillies lockedhorns to the final sixteenth before the eventual winner finallymanaged to move clear by 2 1/4 lengths. Gin Gin came on fromthe back to close the trifecta. With the score here, Jody=s Pridesecured 50 Kentucky Oaks points in addition to the 15 sheearned from the runner-up effort at the Breeders= Cup.

Jody=s Pride | Sarah Andrew

AWe gave her 30 days [after the Breeders= Cup] and then webrought her back to Palm Meadows; she was doing everything
great," said trainer Jorge Abreu. "She was working pretty goodand we had her pointed for the Davona Dale, and at the lastminute, [co-owner] Mr. Weston decided to run her over here.
So I said, >OK, let=s go.="When asked whether his stable star might next be seen in the
GIII Gazelle S., a 100-point qualifier to the Kentucky Oaks Apr. 6,
Abreu said, "I=m going to see how she comes out of it andprobably [come back] here in the Gazelle, and then the
Kentucky Oaks. She ran two turns already and my concern was if
she was going to perform as well as she did as a 2-year-old. She
did, and I think she wants to go longer than that even."
Co-owner Steve Weston of Parkland Thoroughbreds, too, islooking ahead to Kentucky. "We made it [to the Kentucky Oaks]
once before with Venti Valentine and we actually won this race
for the third time today. We won it twice with Final Furlong,with Venti Valentine and Espesso Shot. I'm not saying we havethe best horse for the Oaks of the 14, but at least we have achance."The second foal for Jody=s Song, a half-sister to MSW & GISP
Make Mischief (Into Mischief), Jody=s Pride is the mostaccomplished for her dam. She has a 2-year-old full-brother
Moreperfectunion as well as a yearling full-brother alreadynamed Jody=s Legacy. The mare is due to Epicenter for 2024.

Abrumar, sent off as the 3-1 second choice in the field of nine
3-year-olds, strolled through fractions of :25.52, :50.86 and1:15.15. Entering the stretch, Abrumar was challenged by Silent
Heart as the favored Cugino took dead aim with a three-widebid. Tenaciously, Abrumar found plenty under steady Lopez
urging to prevail by a neck. A head separated Cugino and Silent
Heart. Abrumar displayed covered the final quarter mile in:21.96.
"My horse was a little nervous,@ Lopez said. AHe opened thegate before the race. Nobody was taking the lead, so I took it
and they let me go in :25 and :50 [seconds]. Everybody wasafraid to take the lead because there was so much speed in therace."

breaking from the outside gate, secured a spot in third into thefirst turn and took over the lead at the end of the backstretch.
With the field bearing down on him, the bay kept finding more
and outlasted a charge from favorite Skyro (Varrazano). Out ofan extended family which includes Queen's Plate S. hero Sir
Dudley Digges (Gio Ponti), the winner is a half-brother to

QUALITY G (g, 5, Quality Road--Crystal Grit, by Tapit), a pictureof consistency in his career going into this contest with 10 inthe-money efforts from 11 starts, was in no rush after the jumpfrom eighth as the pacemakers stepped out to lead. Called on
for more in the far turn, but steadied right as he was gaining
momentum, Quality G had to muscle his way between rivals for
racing room passing the quarter marker. Seven wide coming into

KINGSBARNS (c, 4, Uncle Mo--Lady Tapit {GSP}, by Tapit), last

Saturday off nearly a nine-month layoff. A player on the Road to
the Kentucky Derby, the son of Uncle Mo wound up 14th behindMage (Good Magic) under the TwinSpires and finished his 3year-old season beaten just a neck as the heavy favorite in thePegasus S. at Monmouth June 17. Confidently bet at 3-5 in his
first trip back to Gulfstream since breaking his maiden in Jan.
2023, Kingsbarns was outrun by much of the field through the
opening half mile in :44.52 as Vivir Con Alegria (Chi) (Flyer {Chi})led. The pace began to catch up to the frontrunner andKingsbarns swung off the turn three wide with a clear path to goby, doing so inside the final sixteenth to pick up the half-length
win. Vivir Con Alegria held second at odds of 12-1. An $800,000

SPEEDY TRAVELER (f, 4, First Samurai--Less Traveled, byGottcha Gold), whose racing career did not begin until Dec. 31of her 3-year-old season, remained undefeated with a third win

MILITARY LAW TURNSBACK TIME IN AL
MAKTOUM CLASSIC

Military Law | Dubai Racing Club

by Alan Carasso
Winless since taking out Round 1 of the G2 Al Maktoum
Challenge going this track's 1600 metres way back in January
2021 and second in this race the year prior, Military Law (Ire) (g,9, Dubawi {Ire}--Marine Bleue {Ire}, by Desert Prince {Ire}) led
home a 1-2 finish for his legendary sire in Saturday's G2 Al
Maktoum Classic, besting a valiant Walk of Stars (Ire) by alength on the wire.
Content on taking a chasing role as Aldous Huxley (Ire)(Dubawi {Ire}) was hard-ridden to set fast early sections inadvance of Quip (Distorted Humor), Military Law settled in
fourth position, with Walk of Stars just ahead of him and to his
inside in the run down the back of the track. Aldous Huxley had
run his race with the better part of 800 metres left to travel, andMilitary Law was first to make a move, as Oscar Chavez
decisively sent him to the front at the far corner of the track. So
as not to get trapped down inside of a rallying Clapton(Brethren), Tadhg O'Shea angled Walk of Stars off the inside andinto the three path, with Military Law the target as the field
turned into the straight. The veteran pinched a bit of a break
and though Walk of Stars kept battling to the death, he couldn't
quite reel in Military Law. Cont. p3

APPLEBY STRIKES AGAIN IN JUMEIRAH
CLASSIC WITH LEGEND OF TIME
by Jill Williams
Charlie Appleby, runaway leading trainer this season at
Meydan by both earnings ($8,915,500) and percentage of wins(40%) amongst those conditioners with more than a handful ofrunners at the meet, got his third winner on the Super Saturdaycard with LEGEND OF TIME (GB) (c, 3, Sea The Stars {Ire}-Kissable {Ire}, by Danehill Dancer {Ire}) in the Listed JumeirahClassic sponsored by Arabian Adventures. His earlier wins on theevening came with Bold Act (Ire) (New Approach {Ire}) in the G2Dubai City of Gold and with Cinderella's Dream (GB) (Shamardal)
in the Listed Jumeirah Guineas. All three of the winners are
Godolphin homebreds.
Perfect in his three starts at Meydan, Legend Of Time emerged
from the early scrum in an eager third and had to be hard heldby jockey William Buick. Quickly settling into a comfortable spot
against the rail with cover just behind the leading duo of Athan(Arg) (Orpen) and Musical Act (Ire) (Dark Angel {Ire}), Buick
bided his time with a clearly loaded mount until the straightloomed. With little visible effort, Legend Of Time tipped out andaround Athan as Musical Act floated wide. Cont. p10

ANOTHER GROUP WIN FOR GODOLPHIN IN
DUBAI CITY OF GOLD by Heather Anderson
The least-fancied of a trio of Godolphin runners, gradedwinner BOLD ACT (IRE) (g, 4, New Approach {Ire}--Dancing
Sands {Ire}, by Dubawi {Ire}) produced the strongest late surge
to take the AED1,400,000 G2 Dubai City Of Gold Sponsored by

Emirates Airline over 2410 metres on Saturday. He outfooted
fellow Charlie Appleby runner Warren Point (GB) (Dubawi {Ire})by two lengths for the victory, with G1 Deutsches Derby heroSisfahan (Fr) (Isfahan {Ger}) breaking up the Godolphin trio 4
3/4 lengths behind.
Moyglare Studs Trevaunance (Ire) (Muhaarar {GB}) cut out therunning for the majority of this test, but began to wilt with 400
metres remaining. Bold Act, meanwhile, had raced in fifth in awell-spread out field. Switched on by Mickael Barzalona at thequarter-pole, he edged past Castle Way (GB) (Siyouni {Fr}) andtook command. Warren Point ran into all sorts of traffic closer tothe fence yet eventually got free to make a race of it, but could
not match the winner.
AI had a lovely race, the pace was nice and regular,@ said
winning jockey Mickael Barzalona. AI came to the front very
easy, but when he was there he did the minimum, so this was aneasy win for him.@
Kept busy in 2023 with eight starts, the gelding won the Listed
Prix Nureyev in August, but managed only fifth at the same levelat Saint-Cloud a month later. He earned a career high and his
first graded/group badge with a grinding victory in the GIII

JUDDMONTE'S LAUREL RIVER THRASHESFOES IN GODOLPHIN MILE PREP by Alan Carasso
Juddmonte Farms' Laurel River (h, 6, Into Mischief--Calm
Water, by Empire Maker), favored for the 2022 GI Breeders' Cup
Dirt Mile before being ruled out on the eve of the race, flashedsome of the form that saw him win the 2022 GII Pat O'Brien S.
with a towering, front-running victory in Saturday's G3 Burj
Nahaar at Meydan Racecourse, the course-and-distance prep for
the G2 Godolphin Mile on Mar. 30.
The result represented a complete turnaround from his local
debut Jan. 26 when he was an early factor in the G3 Al
Shindagha Sprint over 1200 metres, but faded tamely from 2 1/2
furlongs out and finished a distant seventh behind Mouheeb(Flatter).
Drawn wide in 14 for this contest over the mile, the homebred
was well into stride and was restrained a bit through the
opening exchanges before being allowed to stride into the leadby Tadhg O'Shea after the first 400 metres. Full of run at every
stage of the race thereafter, Laurel River had amassed an
imposing advantage turning them in and kept on very nicely totake it by eight lengths in good time.
Previously trained by Bob Baffert, the bay won four of his
seven starts in the U.S., capped by his 3 3/4-length success inthe seven-furlong Pat O'Brien at Del Mar in August 2022. Trainer
Bhupat Seemar served as a Baffert assistant for some time.
AHe=s a high-class horse and, to be fair to him, he hadn=t run in
18 months when we ran him over six furlongs,@ said O=Shea. AWeweren=t disappointed the last time, but they=re racehorses andnot computers; sometimes they just need a run to get back on
their A-Game.
AHats off to Bhupat and the team and to Juddmonte forkeeping the faith with him.@

Pedigree Notes
A predominantly breed-to-race operation, Juddmontepurchased Laurel River's second dam Soothing Touch for$550,000 at the 2005 Keeneland September sale, and while she
didn't work out as a racemare, she's excelled in the breedingshed.
The mare is the dam of six winners from 10 to race, including
her first foal Emollient (Empire Maker), victorious in the 2013
GI Central Bank Ashland S. and the Juddmonte-sponsored
GI Spinster, and her four winners as a broodmare include
G2 Prix de Malleret winner Raclette (GB) (Frankel {GB}) and
French listed winner Ardent (Frankel {GB}). Cont. p6

Soothing Touch has also accounted for Hofburg (Tapit), a
stakes winner and third in the GI Belmont S; and stakes winner
Courtier (Tapit).
The second foal from Soothing Touch, Laurel River has a 2year-old half-sister by Constitution, a yearling half-brother by
the Tapit son and is due to foal a full-sibling to Laurel River thisterm.
The cross of Into Mischief over Empire Maker mares has
resulted in 29 winners from 43 starters and six stakes winners,
including GI Kentucky Derby hero Mandaloun, the Grade II
winners Occult and Center Aisle and Juddmonte's sadly
departed multiple stakes-winning 'TDN Rising Star' Taraz. Whenextending the cross to Unbridled-line mares, offspring include
multiple Grade I winning champion Covfeve, Grade I winner

PAYNE FORTIFIES POSITION IN RAS AL KHOR

Pedigree Notes

by Heather Anderson
Saturday marked a return to form for Alain Jathiere=s FORTPAYNE (FR) (Rio De La Plata--Lady Verde {Fr}, by Meshaheer),
who eked out a neck victory in the AED1,400,000 G3 Ras Al Khor
Sponsored By Emirates Airline at Meydan. Tamborrada (GB)(Dubawi {Ire}) was second, a length ahead of Echo Point (Ire)(Dubawi {Ire}) in a fairly bunched finish in the 1400-metre grassaffair.
Launched in the middle of the full field, Fort Payne was able tofind cover as Changing Colours (GB) (Dubawi {Ire}) cut out theearly running and anchored the field into the bend. Drawing
closer by half-way, he sat three deep a few lengths off thevanguard. Waiting for his run inside the final 400 metres, he
inched up to even terms with new leader Noble Dynasty (GB)(Dubawi {Ire}) 200 metres out. Those two traded blows for a few
strides, with Fort Payne besting that rival, and he had justenough left in the tank to hold off the fast-finishing Tamborrada
to his outside.
AI was pushed wide and saw too much daylight at Abu Dhabi
last time,@ said Adrie de Vries of Fort Payne=s second in the
Listed President=s Cup. AToday he was in top form, they did agreat job with him.@

Fort Payne is one of nine stakes winners for Rahy=s Rio De La
Plata, who also sired the G2 Prix de Sandringham winner Tahlie(Fr).
The last reported foal out of his dam, the winner shares afourth dam with dual Group 1 winner and sire Kendor (Fr)
(Kenmare {Fr}). That runner landed the 1989 edition of the G1
French 2000 Guineas.

Trainer Nicolas Caullery added, AI=m not sure what we will dowith him [Fort Payne] next. We will have a little celebration andthen think about it.@A winner of the G3 Prix du Palais-Royal in May, the 6-year-old
entire made his Meydan debut several starts later, running ninth

LEADING SPIRIT MAKES THE GRADE IN
MAHAB AL SHIMAAL by Alan Carasso
Where it comes to sprinters in the Emirates, trainer Bhupat
Seemar is the first name that comes to mind. And it's anembarrassment of riches, really. Even with the likes of 2022
G1 Dubai Golden Shaheen hero and 2023 runner-up Switzerland(Speightstown) and the classy multiple group winner Tuz(Oxbow) back in the barn, Seemar fielded a team of three for

Freedom Fighter (Violence), the top-rated of the Seemar trioon 105, hit the ground running and was kept company by
Meshakel (Ire) (Shamardal), but the complexion of the race wasmaterially altered when Go Chrome Go (Arg) (California
Chrome) was pulled up and out of the race inside the opening
400 metres. Leading Spirit broke 'too well' in the post-race
assessment of Pat Cosgrave, but that play right into the rider'shands, as he was able to drop down to enjoy the gun run fromthird.
Freedom Fighter was doing the slightly better work andultimately managed to shrug off Meshakel on the pointy end,
but Cosgrave simply steered out Leading Spirit in upper stretchand easily raced past for the victory. Morning (Munnings) closed
off with good energy to complete the Seemar sweep.

the finish. The final time for the 1800 metres was 1:49.83.

Godolphin horses won three of the day=s nine stakes races. Above isthe trophy presentation for Legend Of Time | Dubai Racing Club

Legend Of Time has been steadily building his CV, having won
his debut at Haydock last fall. Off the board when trying the G3
Tattersalls S. at Newmarket three weeks later, he was put away
before reemerging in Dubai to win conditions events Jan. 5 andFeb. 2, going 1400 meters and 1600 meters, respectively.
AHe=s won the series now and probably 1800 metres is more to
his liking,@ said Buick. AHe=s an exciting horse for the rest of theseason. The American Turf Derby series over there might suithim.@
Appleby's exacta in the Jumeirah Classic mirrored his successin the race in 2023, when he sent Naval Power (GB) (Teofilo{Ire}), One Nation (GB) (Dubawi {Ire}), and Highbank (Ire)(Kingman {GB}) to fill out the trifecta. He only had the two
entrants this year.
Legend Of Time is the 117th black-type winner worldwide for
Gilltown Stud's all-conquering Sea The Stars (Ire). With theJumeirah Classic winner, the remarkable sire of 70 groupwinners now has two stakes winners out of daughters ofDanehill Dancer and an additional two out of daughters of that
one's sire, Danehill. The late Danehill Dancer has 168 stakes
winners as a broodmare sire.
Kissable (Ire), dam of Legend Of Time and herself a listed

From the bell, the eventual winner, and 169th stakes winner
for her late sire, appeared a touch keen, but raced just off theleaders as Nadalia (Fr) (Spanish Moon) led. However, when thefield entered the turn, the filly=s saddle slipped, not once but
twice, and the quick-thinking Buick steered her to the outside ofher rivals just past half-way. Drawing even by the 700-metremark, the dark bay responded to Buick=s direction despite theunconventional tactics and they motored home to win as theypleased.
AShe took a hold early and because she=s quite slight my saddle
slipped up her neck when I took a pull,@ said the jockey. AI was
getting a bit unbalanced, so the safest thing to do was to takemy feet out. It was a bit of a rodeo show, but we got the job
done.@
Appleby added, AShe=s four-from-four now and doing little
wrong. The filly who won this last year went on to win the
Guineas and while I=m not saying she=s good enough to win one,she=s certainly earning the right to run in one.@
Already a winner at both Lingfield on debut in May and Thirsk

was third in both the 2009 G1 Oaks and 2010 G1 Coronation

having her saddle slip approaching the far turn. Jockey William
Buick kicked free of his irons and rode the rest of the race inwhat he described as a Abit of a rodeo show@, with the duo
keeping straight and true to the line, despite being at least fourwide off the fence. Godolphin claimed this contest last year
when it was only a conditions race with subsequent G1 1000

FLEET >FEET= DELIVERS THE TULIPS AT
HANSHIN by Heather Anderson
SWEEP FEET (JPN) (Suave Richard {Jpn}--Bijou Tosho {Jpn}, by
Deep Sky {Jpn}) proved fleetest in the G2 Tulip Sho at Hanshin
on Saturday, a prep for the G1 Oka Sho on Apr. 7. It was the firststakes victory for the YGG Horse Club runner.
Slowly into stride, she soon raced third last in the strung-out
field behind the swift early pace set by Sekitoba East (Jpn)(Declaration Of War), who covered the first quarter in :23.30
and the half-mile in :46.00. In touch with the main body justafter half-way, the filly swung wide on the turn and blew past allcomers barring the frontrunner 200 metres from the line. Still
traveling with a full head of steam, she forged past that rival towin by 1 1/4 lengths in late stretch. Hawaiian Tiare (Jpn) (LordKanaloa {Jpn}) was third, another half-length behind.
A winner at Kyoto in October, Sweep Feet ran second in the
Shiragiku Sho , but did not lift a hoof when seventh in the G1Hanshin Juvenile Fillies. In her 3-year-old bow, she ran second in
the Listed Elfin S. Cont. p14

SIZE RUNNERS DOMINATE MARKET FOR
HONG KONG CLASSIC CUP by Alan Carasso
Trainer John Size has won the Hong Kong Classic Cup, thesecond leg of the 4-year-old Triple Crown, no fewer than fourtimes and he'll saddle two of the top fancies as he looks for his
first victory in the race since Sun Jewellery (Aus) (Snitzel {Aus})in 2011 Sunday afternoon at Sha Tin Racecourse.
Helios Express (Aus) (Toronado {Ire}) is the lone member ofthe 14-strong field rated in triple figures (102), has won six of hiseight lifetime starts and three of his last four. Drawn neatly ingate two Sunday, the bay was impressive in defeating Class 2
rivals over a mile Jan. 7 and backed up the performance with a 1
3/4-length defeat of Helene Feeling (Ire) (Sioux Nation) and arunning-on Star Mac (Aus) (Heroic Valour {Aus}) in a slowly run
renewal of the Hong Kong Classic Mile four weeks back. The
1800 metres of Sunday's test is as far as he's been, and he'll
need to switch off better if he is to see it out, his connections
admit.
Size said: AWe=re trying to adapt to a distance and to a tempo,
which always is an issue for the jockeys who manage the horsethrough the race, so it depends on the circumstances on the day
and what sections they run during the race. So far, he=s beenokay.@
Size's second entry, Ensued (Lemon Drop Kid), will look to
become the first US-bred to take the Classic Cup since Zaidan(Street Cry {Ire}) back in 2012. Placed twice from three overseas
runs for James Fanshawe, the bay gelding broke his maiden on
local debut over 1800 metres last October and--equally
unusually--already owns two victories over the BMW Hong Kong
Derby trip of 2000 metres. A horse that grinds it out, he justmissed in Class 2 over the metric 10 furlongs, but tries restrictedcompany for the first time in Hong Kong.

Helios Express | HKJC photo

SUNDAY • 03 MARCH 2024

AHe=s been quite unusual the way he came into Hong Kong andwon immediately at a distance, that doesn=t happen too often so
he=s sort of stamped himself as one who has adapted to Hong
Kong quite quickly,@ Size said. A[Being] just a little bit one-paced
is probably the chink in his armour, he just doesn=t have enoughacceleration. But, with that, as long as he=s running in a forward
position and running freely, that=s okay.@
Two other American-breds are rough chances, Chancheng
Glory (Mor Spirit) and Unbelievable (Justify).
Chill Chibi (NZ) (Wrote {Ire}) posted four straight wins over thecourse of last season and this season at Happy Valley before
having the streak snapped by subsequent G3 January Cup H.
hero Happy Together (Ire) (Dragon Pulse {Ire}) Dec. 20. Having
missed the Classic Mile via a minor setback, he makes his Sha Tin
debut Sunday.

QUINELLA FOR YULONG AS SOUTHPORTTYCOON WALTZES TO GUINEAS SUCCESS
by Oswald Wedmore & Keely Mckitterick
The G1 Australian Guineas was kept in local hands bySouthport Tycoon (Aus) (Written Tycoon {Aus}) on Saturday. It
was the Ciaron Maher-trained 3-year-old colt who emerged fora decisive victory in the stallion-making race, leading homefellow Victorian Veight (Aus) (Grunt {NZ}) by 1.3l. After aless-than-fortuitous run, the pre-race favourite from Chris
Waller=s stable, Riff Rocket (Aus) (American Pharoah) had tosettle for third.
Runner-up by a small margin on each of his previous twostarts, the G2 Autumn S. and G2 Australia S., Southport Tycoon
was an outsider ahead of Flemington=s feature on Saturday, andprovided his syndicate ownership, Bennett Racing, with a huge
day out, and they might only just be getting startedY
AThe scary thing is he=s so raw still,@ commented winning
jockey Jamie Kah, who was following up on her 10th Group 1
notched only last weekend.
A $300,000 purchase for Bennett Racing at the 2022 Magic
Millions Gold Coast Yearling Sale from the draft of Daandine
Stud, Syndicate chief Nathan Bennett was left visibly moved in
the wake of Southport Tycoon=s achievement.
AIt=s just huge for Bennett Racing and what we=ve been trying
to build for the last five/six years,@ he said. AWe=ve been there
abouts but we just kept getting nailedY but wow, he=s a pretty
good colt too.@Whilst plans are yet to be confirmed, the Australian Guineas
winner earns a place in The All-Star Mile, a target his trainer
didn=t rule out.
A... being a 3-year-old colt, maybe it=s worth considering a little
bit more,@ Maher said. Cont. p16

TDN EUROPE • PAGE 16 OF 20 • THETDN.COM

G1 Australian Guineas Cont.
He said, ANow he=s got that Group 1 on the board, it's a more
realistic option, but I=m sure they=ll enjoy it tonight and we=ll
have some good, healthy conversations about it tomorrow.@
Thirteen individual Group 1 winners now stand in the shadow
of Yulong Stud=s Written Tycoon. Heading into the final 100
metres, the Victorian-based stud looked assured of a dreamresult, as Southport Tycoon drew alongside Veight, a son of theirsecond-season sire Grunt (NZ).
Whether Southport Tycoon becomes the fourth son of Written
Tycoon to stand at stud remains to be seen (Yulong has yet tostand one themselves), but his pedigree certainly positions him
as a strong candidate.

Southport Tycoon | Bronwen Healy

Pedigree Notes
The 62nd stakes winner and 13th Group 1 winner for Written
Tycoon, Southport Tycoon is the second live foal produced by
the placed Ready To Rule (More Than Ready) whose full-sister
Grace And Power (More Than Ready) is the dam of the G1
Darley Classic winner Delectation (Aus) (Shamardal) andgranddam of the G1 Blue Diamond S. and G1 Canterbury S.
winner Artorius (Aus).
A descendant of the legendary matriarch La Troienne (Fr)
(Teddy {Fr}), Ready To Rule was served last spring by Spirit Of
Boom (Aus) after foaling a filly by Farnan (Aus). She'd not hadmuch luck before that; Southport Tycoon who most recent
named foal.
Southport Tycoon is the third Written Tycoon Group 1 winner-Coolongatta (Aus) and Luna Rossa (Aus) the others--out of aMore Than Ready mare; a cross which has produced 23 winners
from 28 runners.

WAR HORSE SALUTES IN VERRY ELLEEGANT
by Oswald Wedmore & Keely Mckitterick
Formerly run as the G1 Chipping Norton S., there was no
fairytale result for Chris Waller in the race=s first renewal as theG1 Verry Elleegant S., only a few weeks after the passing of thechampion mare.
Instead, it was a relatively processionary affair for Kerry
Parker=s Think It Over (Aus) (So You Think {NZ}), who seems toflourish at this time of year, as the 8-year-old gelding added athird Group 1 trophy to his cabinet.
Two fully white bridles synonymous with Verry Elleegant=s (NZ)
(Zed {NZ}) former trainer chased with typical tenacity, and it wasa mighty effort for the favoured Fangirl (Aus) (Sebring {Aus}) tofinish 0.9l away in second after making up so much ground fromthe rear of the field. Cont. p17

TDN EUROPE • PAGE 17 OF 20 • THETDN.COM

G1 Verry Elleegant S. Cont.
Waller=s other runner, last year=s G1 Rosehill Guineas winner
Lindermann (Aus) (Lonhro {Aus}), had to settle for third afurther 1.6l away, but was far from disgraced in a classy field.
After handing Nash Rawiller his 69th Group 1 success, thewinning jockey paid tribute to the trainer.
AIf he was with Gai [Waterhouse] or Chris [Waller] he=dprobably be rated the second-best horse in the country,@ hesaid.
AHe=s a horse that just flies under the radar a bit for being
trained at Kembla, but they go the extra yard to have him turnup at the races in good order.@A delighted Kerry Parker confirmed post-race that a return to
Randwick for the G1 Queen Elizabeth S. on April 13 remains thetarget, adding that Think It Over will likely step up to 2000
metres for the G1 Ranvet S. in between.

Pedigree Notes
One of the 56 stakes winners (and 11 Group 1 winners) for his
Coolmore Stud-based star sire, Think It Over is a homebred for
Bylong Park out of the unraced Personal Service (Aus) (Zabeel{NZ}) who has produced another three winners.
A half-sister to the Group 1 gallopers Universal Prince (Aus)and Universal Queen (Aus) (Scenic {Ire}), Personal Service sadly
died in 2022 with her final foal being the yet-to-race Denis
Pagan trained 4-year-old Normie No Show (Aus) (Exosphere{Aus}).
Able to count amongst his relations the big-race winners Blevic(Aus) and Krone (Aus) (Eurozone {Aus}), Think It Over isline-bred to the wonderful mares Special (Forli {Arg}), Lalun(Djeddah {Fr}) and Perfume II (GB) (Badruddin {Fr})--and he is a
descendant of the latter's influential third dam Marchetta (GB)(Marco {GB}).

TROPICAL SHOWS TENACITY
by Oswald Wedmore & Keely MckitterickFirst-up against plenty of race-fit opposition, Tropical Squall(Aus) (Prized Icon {Aus}) produced a mighty effort to grind out
her second Group 1 victory in Saturday=s Surround S., an often
history-defining race for the 3-year-old fillies.
Pressed all the way to the line by Stefi Magnetica (Aus) (AllToo Hard {Aus}), who was last seen running fourth in the G2Light Fingers S., Tropical Squall held on to a 0.2l advantage at
the line, with G1 Flight S. placegetter Tutta La Vita (Aus) (The
Autumn Sun {Aus}) 1.6l away in third. Coolmore=s Learning To
Fly (Aus) (Justify), second in the Light Fingers, was edged out
into fourth place.
Tropical Squall has been the headline horse for Kooringal
Stud=s second-season sire Prized Icon. After marking his firstwinner (in style) at Canterbury last June, she became his firstGroup 1 winner in the Flight S. this spring. Not bad for a filly thatcost just A$16,000 at the 2021 Magic Millions Gold Coast
National Weanling Sale, sold from the draft of Bhima
Thoroughbreds to Gooree Park Stud. That she=s a homebred for
Kooringal will make her success all the sweeter, and there may
be more to come. Cont. p18

TDN EUROPE • PAGE 18 OF 20 • THETDN.COM

G1 Surround S. Cont.
Although it wasn=t upgraded to a Group 1 event until 2018, Gai
Waterhouse=s previous Surround S. victory in 2010 was anotable one. A champion the following season, it was More
Joyous (NZ) (More Than Ready) who kicked off her Group 1 tallyin the Flight S. before following up in the Surround, just like
Tropical Squall, whose up-and-coming sire is a son of the same
breed-shaping More Than Ready.
The now established partnership of Gai Waterhouse andAdrian Bott have been enjoying their best season since theyjoined forces in 2016. Striking at 21.5% winners to runners, thislatest elite success puts them on five Group 1 winners for theseason, matching 2021/22, whilst their prize-money haul has
tipped over A$20 million for the first time.
It=s also been a defining season so far for winning jockey Adam
Hyeronimus, who was winning his third Group 1 for the term.
AAfter winning the Flight S. we tried to go to the Oaks and thatcan be very difficult for 3-year-old fillies,@ he said. A... she cameback and she really took some time to find her feet thispreparation but her improvementY was very good.
AI wasn't happy with the conditions today [Saturday] but it justshows how good she is and what she had to overcome.@

Tropical Squall | Bronwen Healy

Pedigree Notes
Bred by Kooringal Stud--home to her G1 VRC Derby and G1
Champagne S.-winning sire, Tropical Squall was a bargain
purchase for Gooree Park who bred and raced Prized Icon.
It took just A$16,000 to secure Tropical Squall from the Bhima
Thoroughbreds draft at the 2021 Magic Millions Gold Coast
National Weanling Sale--a great bit of buying!
Her sire's first stakes winner, Tropical Squall is one of the fivewinners produced by the Cranbourne maiden winner Squalls(Aus) (Fusaichi Pegasus). Sadly, she is the final foal for that mare

SUNDAY • 03 MARCH 2024

who died in early 2021.
Squalls's dam is the G3 Frances Tressady and G3 Mannerism S.
winner Blue Storm (Aus) (Bluebird), also dam of the G3
Breeders' Classic winner Steflara (Aus) (Zabeel {NZ}) andancestress of the G1 Thousand Guineas winner Flit (Aus)(Medaglia d'Oro) and the Listed-winning sprinter Federal (Aus)(Medaglia d'Oro {Aus}).
Blue Storm's dam is the triple Group 1 winner Gold Hope (NZ)
(John's Hope {Aus}) whose five foals to race were all winners
with one of her unraced daughters being the dam of the G2Taranaki 2YO Classic winner Byzance Star (Aus) (Clear Choice).

by Oswald Wedmore & Keely Mckitterick
On a sensational Saturday in New Zealand, Waikato Stud's
eight-time Champion Sire Savabeel (Aus) enjoyed remarkablesuccess as he grabbed his 33rd individual Group 1 winner. Cont. p19

TDN EUROPE • PAGE 19 OF 20 • THETDN.COM

SUNDAY • 03 MARCH 2024

Symphonic's dam is also the granddam of last weekend's G3
Matamata Slipper winner Savaglee (NZ) (Savabeel {Aus}).
Other members of this prolific family include the Group 1
gallopers Aegon (NZ) (Sacred Falls {NZ}), Daffodil (NZ) (NoExcuse Needed {GB}) and Atishu (NZ) (Savabeel {Aus}) who won
the G2 Blamey S. at Flemington later in the day.

Orchestral | Kenton Wright/Race Images

G1 NZ Derby Cont.
Savabeel sired his first G1 New Zealand Derby winner as his
exceptional daughter Orchestral (NZ), trained by Roger Jamesand Robert Wellwood, dominated the field at Ellerslie to claim
her maiden Group 1 victory. She became the first filly to win a
New Zealand Derby since Silent Achiever (NZ) (O=Reilly {NZ}),
who was also trained by Roger James, and triumphed in 2012.
Orchestral, a recent winner of the G2 Avondale Guineas by aconsiderable margin, had previously claimed the R. Listed Karaka
Millions 3YO Classic.

Pedigree Notes
She is the second foal from the O=Reilly (NZ) mare Symphonic(NZ), who placed in the G2 Cuddle S. Symphonic's Savabeel colt
fetched NZ$310,000 at the 2024 New Zealand Bloodstock
National Yearling Sale at Karaka, purchased by the Hong Kong
Jockey Club.
Orchestral herself was a NZ$625,000 acquisition by her
trainers from the draft of Haunui Farm at the 2022 New Zealand
Bloodstock National Yearling Sale.
Earlier in the Ellerslie program, Savabeel celebrated his 141st
stakes winner as the Mark Walker and Sam Bergerson-trained
Certainly (NZ) claimed victory in the G3 Mufhasa S., donning the
Waikato Stud colours.
One of the 141 stakes winners--and the 33rd Group 1 winner-for her Waikato Stud-based sire, she is the first live foal for her
Group 3-placed, four-times-winning dam Symphonic (NZ)
(O=Reilly {NZ}) who foaled another Savabeel filly last spring again served by him.
Symphonic is out of a half-sister to the G1 Ellerslie Sires'
Produce S. winner Good Faith (NZ) (Straight Strike), dam of the
stakes winners Tully Dane (Aus) and Mygoodgrace (Aus) (Royal
Academy).
