'INCREDIBLY POSITIVE'
VIBE: KEENELANDSEPTEMBER SALE STARTS
MONDAY'RISING STAR' PRINCE OF MONACO GAMEIN FUTURITY VICTORY
by Stefanie Grimm
If the last 24 hours have given us anything to judge by, thefuture of racing on the West Coast seems to be in safe hands.
Just one day after 'TDN Rising Star' Tamara (Bolt d'Oro)
asserted herself atop her division in the GI FanDuel Racing Del
Mar Debutante S., fellow 'Rising Star' Prince of Monaco(Speightstown) followed suit with a game performance to givetrainer Bob Baffert his 17th win in the GI Runhappy Del Mar
Futurity.
The colt's victory Sunday came as absolutely no surprise. An
eight-length debut winner at Los Alamitos, the $950,000 FasigTipton New York Saratoga Select grad parlayed that right into an
equally impressive route when defeating another 'Rising Star' in
Muth (Good Magic) to take the GIII Best Pal S. Cont. Pg. 5

LEXINGTON, KY - The Keeneland September Yearling Sale, which
produced gangbuster results in 2022, returns for its 2023
renewal Monday in Lexington. Perennially a bellwether of theindustry's sales market, the 12-day auction opens with a pair ofelite Book 1 sessions beginning at 1 p.m. and, with the
Keeneland barns awash with activity Sunday, both sales officials
and consignors were heading into the sale with plenty of
optimism.
AThe traffic has been incredibly positive,@ said Keeneland Vice
President of Sales Tony Lacy. AThere are quite a few buyers here.
It's probably as positive as I've seen it since pre-COVID. The
feedback that we are getting is that it's a very good group ofhorses. The buyers are very satisfied. The sellers are very
positive about the feedback they are getting on the stock they
have here overall. So, in general, I am cautiously optimistic.@
Standing outside his Candy Meadows Sales consignment at
Barn 11, Matt Lyons smiled when asked about his expectations
for the week.

Leading the way in the last two years was the team of Mike
Repole and Vinnie Viola, who purchased 31 yearlings for$12,840,000 in 2022. Repole is expected once again to be onsite during the first four days of the Keeneland sale as his agent
Jacob West and advisor Eddie Rosen were on the grounds
Sunday. Chasing them for the leading buyer title last year was
the stallion-making partnership of SF Racing, Starlight Racingand Madaket Stables, as well as BSW/Crow Colts Group.
The Keeneland September sale annually attracts buyers fromaround the world and the buying bench's international flavor
should be strong in the coming week, according to Lacy.
AWe have been very pleased with the support we have beengetting from the international market and especially Japan,@
Lacy said. AWe have had more Japanese visitors this week andthey are staying longer. I think they are finding that we havecertain sire lines and pedigrees that have worked internationallyfor them. We are becoming more affordable and very relevant
for their program.@Among the Japanese shoppers on the sales grounds Sunday
was Hideyuki Mori, whose five yearling purchases a year ago
were led by a $1.2-million son of Curlin.

Tony Lacy | Keeneland photo
The international buying bench is also strengthened by new
overseas opportunities like the Goffs Dubai Breeze-Up Sale,
which was topped this past March by a son of Gun Runner who
sold for $583,520 after bringing $160,000 at last year's
Keeneland September sale.
AThe Dubai sale that Goffs run in the spring every year has
proven to be a very profitable endeavor for a lot of thepinhookers from Europe coming over here to source stock,@ Lacy
said. AThat has really been a great addition to the diversity ofwhat people are looking for.@Lacy continued, AWe have Australians here, I think we will havea lot of South Americans here and people from all over theworld. From the Middle East, we have buyers from Saudi Arabia,
Qatar, Bahrain and Dubai. We've put a lot of work travellingaround the world over the last couple of years to reach out toour clients at every stage and provide a level of customer
service that they would expect anywhere else. Those efforts
have started to pay off as we start to look at the diversity
through the sales grounds and the excitement about the qualityof stock that the U.S. is producing, which is really encouraging.@
Shadwell Farm, which had long been one of the leading buyers
at the Keeneland September sale before the death of its founder
Sheikh Hamdan al Maktoum in 2021, made four purchases lastyear and could be a resurgent presence at this year's auction.
Sheikha Hissa, now at the helm of her late father's operation,
was at the Keeneland sales grounds Sunday.
ASheikha Hissa came for Malathaat's race in the
Doubledogdare S. last year,@ Lacy said. ASo she got theexperience of coming here. She very much wants to have thesame experience that her dad did, so we've been working
diligently so that we have the same people working with her asworked with her dad.@
Keeneland has settled into a format for its September sale,
which for the third year features Book 1 sessions Monday andTuesday with 383 yearlings, followed by Book 2 sessions
Wednesday and Thursday with 728 yearlings a before a dark day
Friday. Cont.

TDN HEADLINE NEWS • PAGE 5 OF 16 • THETDN.COM

A[This format] allows the higher-end buyers to be able to lookat these horses in a relaxed manner without being rushed andalso have the opportunity to go and look at Book 2 horses
before the first horse walks through the ring,@ Lacy explained.
ASo there is good idea of what the quality is out there. We put a
lot of effort into making sure we have good physicals up front
that have pedigree, that have commercial appeal, knowing what
the marketplace is looking for.@He continued, AI see this year people are in a more relaxedmode and they are able to give these horses the considerationthat they deserve and I think they feel comfortable with that.@
Following its Book 1 and 2 sections, Keeneland will hope fordemand to continue into what has seemed to be a weakening
middle market.
AI think, looking at the yearling sales that have alreadyhappened this year, you have to be positive that [demand] will
carry through to at least the middle of the sale,@ Lacy said. AI
think it could carry through right to the end.@
After buying in a bullish yearling sale a year ago, pinhookers
faced a tougher market to sell in this spring, but Weisbord
expects they will still be a strong presence at Keeneland.
AListen, that's their business,@ Weisbord said. AThey buy
yearlings to sell 2-year-olds. So I expect them to be strong from$75,000 to $275,000.@

MONDAY • SEPTEMBER 11, 2023

AAfter that, it becomes a very difficult pinhook, but I think thatmarket for them will still be strong.@
The Keeneland September Book 1 sessions Monday andTuesday will begin at 1 p.m. Book 2 sessions Wednesday andThursday begin at 11 a.m. Following Friday's dark day, theauction continues through Sept. 23 with sessions beginning daily
at 10 a.m.

Del Mar Futurity Cont. From Pg. 1
Stretching out to his furthest distance to date at sevenfurlongs Sunday, Prince of Monaco drew inside and came away
evenly only to be outsprinted by stablemate Mirahmadi (Into
Mischief) through the opening furlong. Keen to go on with it
under Del Mar's leading rider Juan Hernandez, Mirahmadi led
comfortably as Prince of Monaco rated nicely inside a pair ofrivals through a :22.18 opening quarter. Inside of a bunched up
field in which half the entries were trained by Baffert, the heavy
1-9 chalk began to cruise up into the far turn and enjoyed aground-saving trip in second before tipping out past a :44.75
half mile to engage his stablemate. The pair set off in a duelinside the final eighth but class eventually prevailed with Princeof Monaco getting the upper hand close to home to win with
Mirahmadi not far behind. Cont.

ENDLESSLY STAYS PERFECT IN JUVENILE
TURF ROMP
In a battle of two touted maiden winners, it was ENDLESSLY(Oscar Performance) who got the final say in Sunday's GIII Del
Mar Juvenile Turf S.
Lined up opposite 'TDN Rising Star' Boltage (Bolt d'Oro), the 52 second choice kept to what he knew after a winning debut
over this same distance earlier in the meet July 30. Also facing
two of his stablemates in this spot, Endlessly broke with thepack but was quickly outrun passing the wire the first time by. A
keen Des Doigts (Hootenanny), chased intently by both Bear
River (Flameaway) and Boltage, blitzed into the first turnthrough an opening quarter in :22.71. Bear River went on with it
to take command up the backstretch as Endlessly checked innear the rear of the field. The top three began to come back tothem as Boltage made an early move past a :46.61 half mile andEndlessly followed suit to pick up positions outside of horses.

racetrack around the first turn,@ added McCarthy. AThe horse
was attentive to him and he put himself in a great spot. He
looked like he was always traveling comfortably. It did look like
Juan took it to him a little early. It just seemed like he couldn't
wait any longer and he was able to finish off nicely."

LARGE FIELDS, QUALITY RACING MARK
SUCCESSFUL DEL MAR MEET
Del Mar marked eight weeks of increased field sizes and highquality racing that ended Sunday.
"Overall, just a tremendous summer of quality racing," Racing
Secretary David Jerkens says. "Especially Pacific Classic Day. You
look back and see how strong of a card that was. I think some of
the winners and horses that ran well on that card have bright
futures for the Breeders' Cup."Cont.

The talk around the racing industry is the field sizes again thisyear at Del Mar.
"It was a robust number that I think any track in the country
would kill for," Jerkens says. "We knew last year would be
difficult to match but we are very close to what we had lastyear. I think two years in a row, when you're over or hovering
around nine runners a race, that's a pretty strong
accomplishment."
The average field size for the dirt races at Del Mar this summer
was 8.47 and for the turf races it was 9.50. Stake races had an
AFS of 8.56.
"We had a strong product throughout," Jerkens notes. "We didhave the (one day) weather cancellation but we made up all
those races that were canceled."
Tropical Storm Hilary was the only hiccup all summer. The
storm prompted horse evacuations, canceled racing Aug. 20 andeventually dumped two inches of rain on the backside. But fromall reports afterward, what little flooding there was in the stablearea had no impact on the horses and things were back tonormal in just a couple of days.
The "Ship & Win" program was a success once again thissummer, contributing to the large field sizes.
"The results were pretty much what we expected," Jerkens
says. "I think we were 14% off the number of starters from lastyear but that was another expectation we had to curtail a bit
because we knew, in reality, it would be hard to match. We may
still end up with our second most Ship & Win' runners."
Heading into the final weekend, 171 "Ship & Win" starters
debuted at Del Mar this summer. Twenty three made it to thewinner's circle, six last week.
"You can do all these different programs," Jerkens concedes,"but all that means nothing unless you get the support in theentry box. That's what we had from our horsemen once again."So, now we look ahead to the fall meet, something Jerkens has
already started planning.
"Hopefully we'll have our stakes schedule released in theupcoming weeks," Jerkens says. "We're starting to plant seeds
for the fall. Generally, if the weather cooperates and we're able
to run on the grass we'll have a successful meet. Last year
everything went well, knock on wood. We were fortunate interms of the weather. We had really strong fields our last two
weekends and expectations are for more of the same, but a lot
is dependent on the rain."
The four-week Bing Crosby meet kicks off the week after the
Breeders' Cup, November 10.
For Jerkens, the end of the summer meet is the end of a very
long process that actually goes year round.
"Absolutely," Jerkens says. "You hear from more people acrossthe country than normal about them taking notice of what Del

MONDAY • SEPTEMBER 11, 2023

Mar had to offer this summer. I think we had the strongest
day-to-day race product around this summer.@"My staff worked really hard," Jerkens continues. "There's a lotof planning that goes into it. You don't just show up Opening
Day and here it is. But again, so many owners and trainers reallywant to be part of Del Mar and they provided tremendous
support this summer."

MONDAY • SEPTEMBER 11, 2023

Tamara breezed past the pacesetter, opened up by the top of
the lane and cruised home much the best.
The comments afterward told it all.
"It gave me chills," winning trainer Richard Mandellaremarked.
"I've been here in California for four years," jockey Umberto
Rispoli said as he came off the track following his seventh-placefinish in the race. "I have never seen anything like that.""You don't often see the offspring of a great mare run
anywhere close to what they did," jockey Mike Smith told
FanDuel. "But she's an exception to the rule."
They were talking about the daughter of Bolt d'Oro on thebackstretch Sunday morning.
"It was outstanding," trainer Peter Miller remarked. "She
looked like her mother."
Mandella says Tamara came out of the race fine. In regards to
a Breeders' Cup prep, he says they would play it by ear.
"There's a chance we might run her in the GI Chandelier S. Oct.
7 at Santa Anita," Mandella says. "If it looks like she needs to run
again, then we'll run her there. If not we'll point her straight tothe Breeders' Cup. But so far she looks great."TDN HEADLINE NEWS • PAGE 12 OF 16 • THETDN.COM

The promising 2-eary-old filly Kenwick (Bernardini) may have

Both areas have an Old America feel to them: nothing fake,nothing too gentrified, just authentic, with a touch of Thornton

the rail to go and win her race.

The name of Saratoga winning filly Just F Y I (Justify) is a sort ofan anagram (rearrangement of letters to form another name) of
the moniker of her dad - which is kind of unusual and brave, andtherefore worthy of praise. She won on her debut, so novelty

Aspenite | Coady

Aspenite went into the Kentucky Downs Juvenile Mile S. amaiden and came out a stakes winner The colt, a $375,000
Keeneland September purchase for Winchell Thoroughbreds,
broke with running on his mind and went straight to the front,
but had company through the :22.59 first quarter. He got a little
breather prior to setting the :45.25 half, all the while holding
firm to his rail spot. Kicking clear in the lane, Aspenite swapped
to his wrong lead for much of the stretch but wasn't for catching
and finished 3 1/4 lengths clear of Tough Little Nut, who had
closed from several lengths back.
Second just 10 days ago by a half-length when caught lategoing six furlongs over this course, Aspenite's only otherprevious start resulted in a fourth in an off-the-turf maiden Aug.

AHe was nominated [to the stakes] because of the possibility[of running back after the earlier Kentucky Downs start],@explained winning trainer Steve Asmussen. AHe=s a horse with anice level of ability. Not exactly surprised he got a little lost[when he had a clear lead] the first time here. He sees
everything. It=s just kind of how he is. But he benefitted from theexperience and cashed in on a very good day.@
Bred by Glen Hill Farm in Kentucky, Aspenite is out of a halfsister to MGSW & MGISP Keertana (Johar), MGSW & GISP Snow

by Tom FraryAs much as Sunday=s G1 Goffs Vincent O=Brien National S. wasabout the withdrawal of City Of Troy (Justify) and the impressive
winning performance of fellow TDN Rising Star Henry
Longfellow (Ire) (Dubawi {Ire}--Minding {Ire}, by Galileo {Ire}), it
was testament to Irish racing=s totemic figure Aidan O=Brien whomarked the occasion with a 4,000th training career success.
Who else could pull a colt of the quality of the freakish G2
Superlative S. winner from such an important status event andstill win it by five lengths, burying an impressive G1 Phoenix S.
scorer in the process? The answer is why at just after 4 p.m. on
Sunday we were reflecting on such a remarkable landmark
statistic.
City Of Troy=s participation was decided as soon as the stable=s

CURRAGH GROUP 1 DOUBLE FOR DUBAWIAS ELDAR ELDAROV TAKES THE IRISH LEGER
by Tom Frary
Connections of Kyprios (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) can be satisfied that
Sunday=s G1 Irish St Leger went by without drama, but the glory
was with KHK Racing=s TDN Rising Star Eldar Eldarov (GB)(Dubawi {Ire}--All At Sea {GB}, by Sea The Stars {Ire}) as hereturned to form to provide his sire with a Group 1 double on
the Curragh=s star-studded card. Putting a largely
underwhelming summer behind him, having been seventh in theG1 Gold Cup and fourth in the G1 Goodwood Cup, the 16-5
second favourite enjoyed a perfect tow from Yashin (Ire)(Churchill {Ire}) until taking over approaching two out.
With the 4-6 favourite Kyprios in pursuit, the Roger Variantrained G1 St Leger hero had to keep it up but he kept
answering David Egan to beat the Ballydoyle star by 3 1/2
lengths, with Dawn Rising (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) 2 3/4 lengths awayin third. The field had been cut to four following the withdrawalof Emily Dickinson (Ire) (Dubawi {Ire}), but what this renewal lostin numbers it made up for in terms of quality with the market
confidence in Kyprios notable.
For Egan, the win was especially important given his
connection to the area.

David Egan & Eldar Eldarov after the Irish St Leger | Racingfotos.com

AI had my first Classic winner last year, but to do it where I
grew up at Osborne Lodge, which is at the five-furlong pole,means a lot,@ he said. AIt=s what dreams are made of and for all
the team connected with the horse. My first main job was riding
out for Willie McCreery, who I saw today, and he was a great
man to learn from and gave me a lot of experience and taught
me a lot. He has a tendency to miss the break, but the race wentso smooth, he was a race-fit horse today and was as tough as
nails.@
Eldar Eldarov, who had earned TDN Rising Star status on his
debut at Nottingham in October 2021, also won the G2 Queen=s
Vase last June but with three of his four outings after the St
Leger seeing him finish out of the frame there were thebeginnings of doubts as to whether he was going the wrong
way. Varian was relieved, but unwilling to accept that he had
been disappointing this year.
AHe=s run some great races in defeat this year and it=s nice to
win two Legers,@ he said. AHe=s entered up in France on Arc
weekend and there is the two-mile race at Ascot. He seems to
be really best at a mile and six furlongs, but there aren=t too
many of those races around. He deserves to run one more time
this year and it=s most likely Ascot.@ Cont. p8

Aidan O=Brien said of Kyprios, AA lot of people have done a lotof work to get him to here--all of the vets have done incredible
work to get him back. We didn=t think we would ever see thisday, so to have him back and be happy and for Ryan to be happy
is something. He=s going to come on a lot and Ascot looks lovely
for him. He will have a nice bit of time before now and then andwill love going round there. It would be great to see him comeback to what he was and this was a great comeback run.@

VERMEILLE by Sean Cronin
Coolmore and Westerberg=s G2 Ribblesdale S. victrix Warm
Heart (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}--Sea Siren {Aus}, by Fastnet Rock {Aus})
was defiant when battling to a career high in last month=s G1
Yorkshire Oaks and displayed her fighting qualities once again togarner Sunday=s G1 Qatar Prix Vermeille at ParisLongchamp.
As she had done on the Knavesmire, Warm Heart settled into asmooth rhythm racing off the pace in fourth, having broken
from the stalls with her nose shaving the turf here. Making
relentless headway under pressure in the straight, the 3-1
second favourite was driven along to launch her challenge
passing the furlong pole and stayed on well under whiplessrousting in the dying embers to withstand the persistent threatof G2 Prix de Pomone victrix Melo Melo (GB) (Gleneagles {Ire)by a short-neck. Yorkshire Oaks fifth Sea Silk Road (Ire) (Sea The

first placing at the highest level.

Group 1 | Scoop Dyga

AThe race was a bit of a trappy contest,@ explained winningrider James Doyle. AShe exits the gates very well, but she slipped
today and lost her action for a few strides, so I found myself a
bit fenced-in and further back than I would have liked. They
didn=t go very fast and I was worried during the race, but she
showed a lot of determination to come out on top. She doesn=t
really stop once in the lead, but tends to idle a bit and wait forthe others, which is what she did in the Yorkshire Oaks and what
she did again today.
AAs for the Arc, her connections will decide. My feeling is that
she needs good ground, being a light-actioned sort, and thegoing is therefore important in this regard. We=ve already seen
editions of the Arc being run on fast ground, it can happen, but
it=s not common either.@Francis-Henri Graffard, trainer of runner-up Melo Melo,added, AMelo Melo was conceding weight to the winner today,
but we came up against a filly who was really a tough cookie.
Looking to the future, she=ll be better suited by much softer
tracks. In any case, I think she delivered a great performance.@

FLYING FIVE GLORY FOR MOSS TUCKER
by Tom FraryFirst there was the Live In The Dream (Ire) (Prince Of Lire {Ire})
at 28-1 in the Nunthorpe, then Saturday=s Haydock Sprint Cup
turn-up courtesy of the 10-1 shot Regional (GB) (Territories{Ire}) and now Moss Tucker (Ire) (Excelebration {Ire}--Rare
Symphony {Ire}, by Pastoral Pursuits {GB}) to complete the shock
treble at 16-1 in Sunday=s G1 Al Basti Equiworld, Dubai Flying
Five S. at The Curragh, a GI Breeders' Cup Turf Sprint qualifier.
This looked a surefire renewal for the Brits on form, but one by
one Highfield Princess (Fr) (Night Of Thunder {Ire}), Bradsell(GB) (Tasleet {GB}) and Art Power (Ire) (Dark Angel {Ire}) wilted
leaving it to a triumvirate of outsiders to fight it out.
As the 22-1 shot Get Ahead (GB) (Showcasing {GB}) and fellow
outsider at 20-1, Equality (GB) (Equiano {Fr}), tried hard to bring
the prize back across the Irish Sea in the closing stages, Billy Lee
kept asking the Ken Condon-trained 5-year-old and the response
was typically courageous and honest. Cont. p11

TDN EUROPE • PAGE 11 OF 23 • THETDN.COM

G1 Flying Five S. Cont.
Using the extra stamina he displayed when taking thesix-furlong G3 Phoenix Sprint S. here last time, Moss Tucker
forged ahead late to deny Get Ahead by half a length, with
Equality eventually beaten another 1 1/4 lengths in third.
Following the preceding rain, Highfield Princess was hammered
into even-money favouritism but uncharacteristically missed thebreak and struggled some way out.
AIt=s fantastic on the Curragh, on the most important weekend
in Irish racing. It=s just been a great story with this horse how hehas progressed and kept improving,@ Condon said. AYou=re
thinking if we got placed it would be a super effort and then theheavens opened about an hour and a half ago which helped us agood bit. He was very good here the last day a month ago. We
thought that was a career-best and obviously this is anotherstep in the right direction.@
Moss Tucker had been to the Curragh on eight occasions prior
to this, with wins in the aforementioned Phoenix Sprint and also
the Listed Waterford Testimonial S. in October to his name aswell as a third to Art Power in the G2 Sapphire S. In July. Also
responsible for upsetting Tenebrism (Caravaggio) in the Listed
Woodlands S. at Naas in April, the gelding needed a slice of luckto get one of these on his file but had that in spades here with
the British contingent so below-par.
Billy Lee said, AKen and I love this horse and he has been abrilliant servant who has made his way up through the grades.
He is as genuine as they come, things went lovely today--hejumped and travelled well, but when they quickened at the two I
thought I was in trouble. He is all heart though, stuck to his guns
and really battled hard. He is just a brilliant horse and while wehave had a quietish year, this one winner makes all thedifference.@

FANTASTIC MOON POWERS TO PRIX NIEL
TRIUMPH by Sean Cronin
Liberty Racing=s G1 Deutsches Derby hero Fantastic Moon
(Ger) (Sea The Moon {Ger}--Frangipani {Ger}, by Jukebox Jury{Ire}) suffered a reversal following up in Munich=s G1Bayerisches Zuchtrennen last time and bounced back in style todominate the closing stages of Sunday=s G2 Qatar Prix Niel at
ParisLongchamp.
The Sarah Steinberg trainee tanked forward to stalk the pacein third for the most part and improved into second along thefalse straight. Coming under pressure soon after turning for
home, the 51-10 chance quickened to seize control approaching
the final furlong and was ridden clear to easily outpoint G1
Grand Prix de Paris hero Feed The Flame (GB) (Kingman {GB}) by
2 1/2 lengths. Juddmonte=s Bravais (GB) (Frankel {GB}) wasanother late closer and finished a half-length back in third.
AWe made the correct decision not to run him last time [in theSept. 3 G1 Grosser Preis von Baden] at Baden-Baden because
the ground was overwatered,@ said Liberty Racing=s Lars-Wilhem
Baumgarten. AThe trainer and the jockey have done a great job
and he=s a great horse, but he needs good ground. Today=s race
lacked pace and it wasn=t straightforward. However, he=s easy tohandle and very talented. In my opinion, he=s the best winner of

the German Derby since [his sire] Sea The Moon. He=s still goingstrong at the end of his 3-year-old campaign and we=re so happy
for our syndicate. We have four horses and two of them aregroup class. We=ll be making a decision, as to where he goes
next, on Monday.@That decision looks unlikely to include a ticket to next month=s
Arc, according to Sarah Steinberg. ARather than the Prix de l=Arcde Triomphe, we=re thinking about other possibilities,@ the
trainer revealed. AThese include the Japan Cup and theBreeders= Cup.@ Cont. p13

G2 Prix Niel Cont.
Pascal Bary feels there is more to come from runner-up Feed
the Flame and considers the run vital education, despite defeat,en route to a tilt at next month=s G1 Prix de l=Arc de Triomphe.
AHe picked up well, but he wasn=t quite as ready as I thought
after two months off and the last 100 metres seemed a bit of an
eternity for him,@ the trainer reflected. AChristophe Soumillon
made sure the colt was given a lesson when it came to racing
between horses, which is a good form of preparation, and he
wasn=t hard on him. Of course, it=s always better to win than to
be second. That said, the winner Fantastic Moon has every rightto be considered a good colt.
AFeed The Flame will line up in the Prix de l=Arc de Triomphe
and, if the ground were to ease, that would be even better.@Juddmonte representative Claude Beniada was pleased withthe effort of Bravais, who registered a career-high placing on
pattern-race debut. AObviously, this is the best performance of
his career and Bravais is certainly more relaxed when he waits
during a race,@ he said. AAt Deauville last time, he showed that
he wouldn=t be bothered by a longer distance. He=s proved thattoday and it=s very encouraging. He hasn=t stopped improving
and, if all goes well, he=ll develop into a good 4-year-old.@

Pedigree Notes
Fantastic Moon, one of his sire=s four Group 1 winners, is thesecond foal and lone scorer produced by a winning half-sister to
G3 Sveaas Minnelop victor Fearless Hunter (Ger) (Alhaarth {Ire})
and Listed Arnfinn Lund Minnelop third Fil Rouge (Ger) (Lord Of
England {Ger}). The March-foaled bay, who is from the family of
MGISW sire Street Boss (Street Cry {Ire}), is kin to a yearling filly
by Starspangledbanner (Aus) and a weanling filly by Masar (Ire).
His second dam Firedance (Ger) (Lomitas {GB}) is a half-sister to
G3 Rockfel S. victrix Germane (GB) (Distant Relative [Ire}) andthe dual stakes-winning G3 Preis der Deutschen Einheit
runner-up Fabriano (GB) (Shardari {Ire}). Germane, in turn, is thedam of stakes-winning GI Hollywood Derby third Lucky Chappy(Ire) (High Chaparral {Ire}) and Listed Kolner Stuten Meilerunner-up Granted (Fr) (Cadeaux Genereux {GB}).

PLACE DU CARROUSEL COMPLETES IDEAL
ARC PREP IN PRIX FOY
by Heather Anderson
Al Shaqab Racing's Place Du Carrousel (Ire) (Lope De Vega
{Ire}), already a Group 1 winner in last year's G1 Prix de l'Opera,
defeated defending champion Iresine (Fr) (Manduro {Ger}) by aneck to take Sunday's G2 Qatar Prix Foy at ParisLongchamp. The
latter was a half-length to the good of 2022 G1 Deutsches Derby
and G1 Grosser Dallmayr-Preis Bayerisches Zuchtrennen hero
Sammarco (Ire) (Camelot {GB}) in third.
The 4-year-old filly was the 13-5 second choice behind her G1Prix Ganay conqueress Iresine at 1-2. Content to race midfield as
Plesant Jane (Fr) (Pivotal {GB}) forged to the front while
watched by Fenelon (Fr) (Fastnet Rock {Aus}), Place Du
Carrousel perched one off the fence next to Sammarco with
Iresine last of the quintet. Drifting back a spot to fourth on thebend, the daughter of G2 Prix du Conseil de Paris victress Traffic
Jam (Ire) (Duke Of Marmalade {Ire}) remained well covered up,
as the field neared the straight. Closing willingly when given her
cue, she quickly drew on even terms at the 200-metre mark, andfound just enough late to withstand the withering run of Iresinein the final strides.
Rupert Pritchard Gordon, racing manager for Al Shaqab Racing,said, AThe filly showed that she's in good form. She's still freshbecause she hasn't run much this year, due to a slight setback inthe spring. The weather conditions are exceptional today, andMonsieur Fabre preferred to go for the Qatar Prix Foy rather
than the [G1] Qatar Prix Vermeille, anticipating that there would
be less pace in the Foy.@
Since her Opera heroics last October, Place Du Carrousel was anever-nearer fifth in the Ganay this spring, but after a break,
was a winner over good to soft ground in the G3 Prix GontautBiron at Deauville in August. Cont. p14

Connections are now dreaming of the G1 Qatar Prix de l'Arc de

AWhen we decided to keep her in training at four, after her

if all goes well between now and then, we'll be heading to therace of dreams.@
Mandore International Agency, on behalf of Al Shaqab Racing,picked up the bay for €260,000 out of the Arqana Select Sale at
Deauville in September of 2020 from the Ballylinch Stud draft.

Pedigree Notes
One of 19 Group 1 winners for her Ballylinch sire, Place Du
Carrousel is the first foal out of Traffic Jam, who also ran secondin the G2 Prix de Pomone. Since foaling the Foy winner, she hasdelivered four fillies--the 3-year-old Nariman Point (Ire) (Dubawi{Ire}), a 1.05-million gns Kingman (GB) juvenile named Monyat
Galby (Ire), a yearling by Sea The Stars (Ire) who is consigned as
lot 158 by Ballylinch to the upcoming Tattersalls OctoberYearling Sale Book 1, and a full-sister to the winner this term.
Her third dam, Sweet Emotion (Ire) (Bering {GB}), foaled Listed
Midsummer S. victor Winged Cupid (Ire) (In The Wings {GB}),
who also ran second in the G1 Racing Post Trophy. This is theextended family of the high class dual Group 1 winner Lillie

LUMIERE ROCK LIGHTS UP THE CURRAGH
WITH DESERVED GROUP 2 SUCCESS
By Brian Sheerin
It was always going to take something special to luminate theCurragh against the backdrop of that dark grey sky, but theJoseph O=Brien-trained Lumiere Rock (Ire) (Saxon Warrior {Jpn})
had just the answer in the G2 Moyglare-sponsored Blandford S.
under a razor-sharp Dylan Browne McMonagle.
Lumiere Rock has danced every dance this season. Her big
moment at the Irish Champions Festival was richly deserved but
it was achieved in far more tenacious fashion than thethree-length winning margin would suggest.
Having gone out on her sword behind thefantastically-talented French filly Jannah Rose (Ire) (Frankel{GB}) in her own backyard in the G2 Prix Alex Head at Deauvillelast month, Lumiere Rock=s ability was clear for everyone to see,and she confirmed herself a smart sort in her own right in
grabbing the Blandford by the scruff of the neck in first-timecheekpieces.
The race-winning move came over two furlongs out when
Browne McMonagle, rightly considered one of the hottest riding
prospects in Europe, sent the 6-1 shot to the front. From there,
Lumiere Rock was not for catching, with Aidan O=Brien=s Jackie
Oh (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) coming through to finish a never-nearer
second while the sponsor=s Trevaunance (Ire) (Muhaarar {GB})finished a credible third. Cont. p15

the Tattersalls October Sale as lot 1237, and a colt foal by Kodi
Bear (Ire).
Second dam Baahama (Ire) (Anabaa) won the Listed Prix
Charles Laffitte and was runner-up in the G3 Prix d'Aumale. At
stud she foaled a pair of Deep Impact (Jpn) French Group 3
winners--Akihiro (Jpn) and Bartaba (Fr).

G2 Blandford S. Cont.
"She has been keeping really good company all season,"
O'Brien said afterwards. "She was just beaten at Ascot andnarrowly beaten again in France the last day. She really diddeserve her win at Group 2 level today and won in the style of afilly who will hold her own in Group 1 company as she getsolder."
Lumiere Rock carried the colours of Michael O'Flynn, theproperty developer who is synonymous for owning top-class
jumpers with Mouse Morris, including Grade 1-winning chaser
China Rock and one-time exciting novice hurdler Venalmar.
However, the striking red and yellow silks have been spottedmore frequently on the Flat in recent years, through O=Flynn's
association with the stables of O'Brien and Johnny Murtagh, andthe owner explained how he enjoys the balance between thetwo codes.
AI am enjoying it,@ the owner said. AI am having more of an
involvement on the Flat, which I am really enjoying, but I love
the National Hunt. I must say, with Joseph and Johnny Murtaghon the Flat, I have had some really interesting runners andwinners. I am favouring a little bit more towards the Flat but I
still love the National Hunt."
O'Brien confirmed that Lumiere Rock could take in a Group 1
contest on her next start.
He said, "I suppose the obvious targets could be Arc day at
Longchamp or Ascot for Champions Day. We'll see how shecomes out of this and she'll tell us."

Pedigree Notes
One of seven stakes winners for her Coolmore sire, Lumiere
Rock is out of the placed Last Gold (Fr) (Gold Away {Ire}). She is a

GOKEN'S FANG DOUBLES DOWN IN PRIX DU
PIN by Heather Anderson
For the second consecutive year, Fang (Fr) (Goken {Fr})showed his liking for Arc Trials weekend in Paris, taking the G3
Qatar Prix du Pin in front-running fashion at ParisLongchamp on
Sunday.
Sent immediately to the vanguard, the 74-10 fifth choice wasonly mildly pressed by National Service (Fr) (Elusive City) in this1400-metre affair. Cristian Demuro was sitting practicallymotionless aboard the Jean-Claude Rouget trainee with all his
rivals off the bridle 300 metres from home. Able to maintain hisrhythm, Fang crossed the line 1 1/4 lengths in front, as his foes
fought out a blanket finish for the lesser honours. Dabawa (Fr)(Siyouni {Fr}), who was rank early, finished second, a short neckahead of National Service in third. Cont. p16

Jean Bernard Roth, assistant trainer to Rouget, said, AFang is alovely horse to be around, sweet, calm, easy to train. He is the
typical seven-furlong horse and handles this course superbly
well. Not all horses do.@Only seventh in the G1 Prix de la Foret on Arc day in 2022, thegelding rebounded with a narrow victory in a Chantilly
conditions heat this July. Switched to the Deauville Polytrack in
August, he found the re-opposing Siam Paragon (Fr) (Shalaa{Ire}) too good when third going 6 1/2 furlongs. Another crack at
the Foret is next for Fang.
AHe will most certainly return in the G1 Prix de la ForLt, but heis ground dependent,@ he added. AHe loves fast conditions like
today but at five he doesn=t stop improving and may be he could
now cope with softer conditions.@

beautiful mover. He won in Doncaster [the G1 Vertem Futurity
Trophy S. as a juvenile] on heavy and we couldn=t believe that hedid it, but it was probably just sheer ability.
AWe=ll take our time and see how he is, but I=d imagine it will
be something like [the Breeders= Cup].@O'Brien also indicated Luxembourg (Ire) (Camelot {GB}),runner-up to his stablemate in the Irish Champion S., could headto France in an attempt to improve off his seventh-place finish inlast year's G1 Prix de l=Arc de Triomphe.
AHe could go to the Arc,@ O'Brien said. AHe wouldn=t mind aslong as the ground is not heavy, and over a mile and a half weknow to ride him like a horse that just gets a mile and a half.
AHe doesn=t want to go any further, but we are learning about
him all the time. It was a massive run yesterday.@

NATIVE AMERICAN (IRE) (c, 2, Sioux Nation--Pencarrow {GB},by Green Desert), repaid some of the Wathnan Racing
investment by running out an authoritative winner of the
Tattersalls Ireland Super Auction Sale S. to provide the operation
with its first winner on Irish soil from as many attempts. Trainedby Richard Fahey, Native American overcame an absence ofover 100 days to land the i300,000 contest by over two lengths
to Mercian Warrior (Ire) (Saxon Warrior {Jpn}). The race
appeared in the balance a furlong down but, when reigning Irish
champion jockey Colin Keane asked the 4-5 favourite to go andwin the race, the response was immediate. The winning rider
said, "He was a good winner of his maiden at York and I was
talking to Oisin [Orr, jockey] beforehand and he was very
complimentary about him. I'd say he could be a stakes horse intime. The ground was as slow as he'd have wanted it." Native
American was a i75,000 purchase at the Tattersalls Ireland
September Yearling Sale last year by Robin O'Ryan and Richard
Fahey and bought privately by bloodstock agent Richard Brown
on behalf of the owner after the horse won on debut at York.
Part of the same clan as GI Hollywood Derby winner and sire

Maigret recovered from a terrible getaway to garner his Aug.
20 debut over seven furlongs at Hannover and recovered from alass-than-perfect break to race on the front end after the initialstrides of this black-type bow. Comfortably clear by halfway, theeven-money favourite maintained a relentless tempo into thestraight and was ridden out inside the final 300 metres to collecta career high with plenty to spare.
Maigret becomes the fourth black-type winner for his sire andis the third of five foals produced by Minoris (Fr) (Dabirsim {Fr}),her first being MGSW G1 Preis der Diana (German Oaks) third

JAPAN, KAWADA DOMINATE KOREANFEATURES by Alan Carasso
Japanese horses flexed their muscles at the Saudi Cup meetingin February and again in Dubai the following month and aquartet of gallopers that made the short trip over for Sunday's
Korea Cup (1800m) and Korea Sprint (1200m)--each carrying
international Group 3 status--made their presence felt yet again
in front of a packed house at Seoul Racecourse.
Japan took the first three runnings of the Cup in which they
were represented from 2016-2018 and finished third withfavored Sekifu (Jpn) (Henny Hughes) last year as Winner's Man(Kor) (Musket Man) led home a local 1-2 over Raon the Fighter(Kor) (Bayern) following a two-year, COVID-enforced
postponement of the features. Crown Pride (Jpn) (Reach the
Crown {Jpn}), last year's G2 UAE Derby hero and GI Kentucky
Derby participant, was joined on the trip over by Gloria Mundi(Jpn) (King Kamehameha {Jpn}), less heralded, but six-from-eighton dirt, including a Group 3 when last seen in May.
With Yuga Kawada in for the afternoon, Crown Pride was bet
into $1.30 (3-10) favoritism and made light work of it, taking
over at the midway stage, turning back a mild bid from Gloria
Mundi nearing the straight and careering away under a hold totake it by 10 lengths over his compatriot. Cont. p22

Crown Pride | Horsephotos

Korea Cont.
Winner's Man ran on for third, while Hong Kong raider ApacheStar (Aus) (War Chant) faded into ninth after racing prominently
early.
Koji Maeda's Remake (Jpn) (Lani) was third in the G3 Riyadh
Dirt Sprint and a troubled fifth in the G1 Dubai Golden Shaheen
earlier in the year and prepped for the Korea Sprint with a facile
success in listed company at Morioka last month. Also favoured
at 30 cents on the dollar, the homebred sat a midfield trip for
Kawada, went for an inside run into the stretch and raced pastpacesetting Beolmaui Star (Kor) (To Honor and Serve) to scoreby four easy lengths in track-record time. The well-traveled
Bathrat Leon (Jpn) (Kizuna {Jpn}), a winner at group level in
Dubai in 2022 and in Saudi Arabia this term, ran on for third
ahead of Hong Kong's Duke Wai (NZ) (Per Incanto), who ralliedfrom well back for fourth. Defending champ Eoma Eoma
(Algorithms) was fifth.
Foreign targets in the immediate future for the winners could
include Breeders' Cup appearances, though Crown Pride could
be pointed for the valuable JBC Classic in November orDecember's G1 Champions Cup, in which he was narrowly
defeated last season. Remake is also a candidate for the JBC
Sprint and/or the G3 Capella S., which marked his first win at
stakes level in 2022.
