Each race--particularly a Breeders' Cup win--is special to theconnections of the winner, but some races stand out more thanothers in all who are lucky enough to witness them. Some getembedded in the mind and take up permanent residence there.
Just about everyone in racing can recall in vivid detail Arazi's
scintillating 1991 Juvenile or Personal Ensign's electrifying 1988
Distaff or Tiznow's gripping 2001 Classic. Each of those areamong the transcendent performances in our sport that stir thesoul, both for those who witnessed them in person or live on
television and even in newer racing devotees who discover themfor the first time. Cont. Pg. 3$2,000 by the New York State Gaming Commission after a filly
under her care returned a positive test for the non-steroidal
anti-inflammatory drug phenylbutazone following a 9 1/2-length
win as the 4-5 favorite at Aqueduct Racetrack more than eightmonths ago.
Rice has appealed the Sept. 28 ruling, so she has been granted
a stay of those penalties pending a final resolution.
The NYSGC also made it public on Friday that Rice will beappearing before the commission for a separate matter when
the board conducts its monthly meeting this coming Tuesday.
Rice's name appears on the just-released agenda for the Oct. 3
meeting for an adjudication of her "improper practices" casethat has persisted at the commission level and in the New York
courts for more than two years.
In 2021, the NYSGC fined Rice $50,000 and revoked her license
for three years after investigating claims that Rice received
favorable treatment from the New York Racing Association andthat the racing office was releasing to her the names and past
performances of horses that had already been entered in races,
giving her an unfair advantage. Cont. Pg. 10

Songbird/Beholder Cont. From Pg. 1
Without a doubt, the 2016 GI Breeders' Cup Distaff ranks
among the best races in Breeders' Cup history. Two alreadybeloved Breeders' Cup winners and future Hall of Famers lockedhorns in what would prove a race for the ages, only to finish
millimeters apart at the wire.
To jog the memory, that year's Distaff was the last Breeders'
Cup race on Friday's card at Santa Anita and the final race ofBeholder's stellar career. The Spendthrift colorbearer was
already a three-time Eclipse champion, a 10-time Grade I
winner, and a dual Breeders' Cup winner. However, after threestraight runner-up finishes and certainly in the twilight of her
career at the age of six, there were whispers that perhaps thegreat mare's best days were behind her.
AI was really nervous about it going in because I wasn't quite
sure she was the same Beholder as a 6-year-old as she had beenher 5-year-old year,@ said Ned Toffey, general manager at
Spendthrift. AI remember the next day wondering why my hands
were sore and it was because I was pounding on the box,
pounding on the wall as they were coming down the stretch,cheering her home.@

Beholder at Spendthrift | Sarah Andrew

For her part, the Fox Hill-owned Songbird was no slouch either
as an undefeated 3-year-old filly. Her previous 11 starts--andwins--included seven Grade I victories and the last year's
Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies, as well as an Eclipse championshipof her own. The question facing her was how she would handle
older mares for the first time, especially one as tough as
Beholder.
AWith her first Breeders' Cup, I don't think we've ever had ahorse we were as confident in,@ said Victoria Keith, Fox Hill
Farm's vice president at the time. AYou get really, really spoiled
by a horse of her caliber. With [Fox Hill's] Havre de Grace andHard Spun, you knew they were going to give a good effort, butwith Songbird, you got the idea she was invincible.@ Cont.

It was exactly the type of showdown we all crave and that sorarely comes to fruition. Both were clearly at their best that day.
Of course, there were a number of other top fillies and mares inthat year's Distaff, but they were all running for third.
In a stretch run reminiscent of Sunday Silence and Easy Goer inthe 1989 Preakness or Affirmed and Alydar in the 1978 Belmont,
Songbird and Beholder exited that final bend together andthrew it all down. Nose to nose for stride after pulsating stride,
neither deserved to lose.
AWe had a bad angle on the wire and it looked to me like
Songbird had gotten her nose down on the wire,@ said Toffey. AIt
was a great race. Two champions, two gutsy, courageous mares.
Those are the kind we're' all looking for.@
Keith had the same thoughts. AWe all stood there and thought
Songbird had won. From our angle it certainly looked like she'd

ever.@

AAt six, it was time to be retired and be bred,@ continued
Toffey. AIt was funny because there wasn't a sense of pressure
because she'd had such a remarkable career already, having
won a Grade I at two, three, four, five, and six. It was, in someways, an unprecedented career.
ASongbird was a worthy adversary and she certainly didn't
disappoint. It was a really, really fitting way for Beholder to wrap
up one of the greatest careers we've seen, a great and fitting
way to cap her career.@
Both Beholder and Songbird earned year-end championships
in their respective divisions. Beholder became only the second
horse in history to win three Breeders' Cup races.
Despite officially losing what would become a match race,
Songbird inspired enduring respect and a legion of hashtags onsocial media claiming #SongbirdWon.
Both owners of the two champions have since passed away:
Fox Hill's Rick Porter in June, 2021 and Spendthrift's B. Wayne

fortunate that led us to keep her. After her win [over males in

disciplined. For him that meant there was a certain amount ofmoney he'd spend at auction and from that crop there would be

TDN HEADLINE NEWS • PAGE 10 OF 19 • THETDN.COM

a very small percentage that would pay for the rest, not on the
track, but in selling. That enabled him to keep in the black byhaving that discipline.
AHe had to be able to sell the valuable breeding prospects. The
good thing is that he was at the level in racing that you know theperson who is going to buy the horse is going to be a goodowner, and give certainly as good a home as we'd ever give thehorse. It was exciting for him to see his horses do well in every
area. The businessman in him was very disciplined in that.@
Like Beholder, Songbird did not immediately find success withher first foals, but each foal brings renewed promise and hope.
Also like Beholder, she too sent her first yearling to the sales thisyear. Songbird's Curlin colt was a $1-million Book 1 purchase byGrandview Equine at the Keeneland September Sale.
Songbird's initial foal, the unraced Arrogate filly Song Gate,
produced her first foal, a filly by Tapit, this year. Songbird's 3year-old filly, Magical Song (Tapit), last raced at Saratoga Aug. 18
for trainer Todd Pletcher but has not yet found the winner's
circle. She also has an unraced 2-year-old filly by Tapit, as well asthat seven-figure Keeneland yearling. Songbird produced
another Curlin foal, a filly this time, May 1 and has been bredback to Gun Runner.
AI've watched her from afar,@ said Keith. AShe was such asweetheart, it's sort of unbelievable to me how sweet she was[and yet such a competitor]. The most you can hope for in racingis that you've been blessed enough to own a horse like that.
ARick was very blessed and I got to ride along on the coattails. I
got to live vicariously. It was so fun, a very special journey. I wish
everyone in horse racing could experience it.@

Linda Rice Cont. From Pg. 1
It was further alleged that Rice had paid racing officials in
exchange for the information, a charge she denied. She did,
however, admit to routinely giving members of the racing
department, as well as the gate crew, Christmas presents.
On June 8, 2023, the New York Supreme Court Appellate
Division ruled that the three-year banishment imposed by the
NYSGC was "entirely unwarranted."
But that same court also upheld the commission's
determination that the "improper practices" rule had been
violated, and ordered the matter back to the NYSGC to reassess
the penalty "with the constraint that any reassessed penalty
cannot contain a license revocation."
Rice's Jan. 21, 2023, bute penalty was triggered by Afleet
Arlene (Afleet Alex), who is owned by Winning Move Stable andhas been unraced since that victory. A disqualification from thewin and a purse redistribution from the $16,000 claimer($15,400 winning purse) was mandated by the under-appeal
ruling.

SATURDAY • SEPTEMBER 30, 2023

Linda Rice | Sarah Andrew

The ruling stated that the bute finding was "in excess of thequantitative threshold" of 0.3 mcg/ml in plasma.
The relatively long time that the NYSGC's drug-test findings
linger behind the scenes prior to a ruling being issued has been
an issue of concern in 2023, with some cases still resurfacing
even after the Horseracing Integrity and Safety Act Authority
took over as the sport's nationwide testing entity back on May
22.
Back on May 11, trainer Todd Pletcher was fined $1,000 andsuspended 10 days after tests revealed that his trainee Forte(Violence) tested positive for meloxicam following a win in the
GI Hopeful S. on Sept. 5, 2022, at Saratoga Race Course.
Cont.

TDN HEADLINE NEWS • PAGE 11 OF 19 • THETDN.COM

The length of the delay made headlines because in the interim
between the Hopeful S. and the ruling, Forte won the GI
Breeders' Cup Juvenile, was voted the Eclipse Award championof his division, had won two other graded stakes, and was thefavorite for the GI Kentucky Derby before being scratched themorning of the race with a right front foot bruise.
Another Pletcher trainee, Capensis (Tapit), triggered a bute
finding in a Saratoga post-race test on July 30, 2022, but thatruling (14-day suspension, $2,000 fine) was not made public
until 10 2 months later, on June 11, 2023. Pletcher is currently
appealing both cases.
In the ensuing debate over why New York's positives take solong to come to light, regulators have blamed trainers for"repeated procedural delays" in getting split samples tested,while horsemen have accused the commission of needlessly
dragging out the process and not being responsive or timely inresponding to scheduling requests.
At the May 22, 2023, NYSGC meeting, it was disclosed thatthree outstanding, pre-HISA Thoroughbred drug positives
remained unadjudicated by the commission and were still
lingering at various stages in the regulatory process.
When commissioner John Crotty asked what the timeline wasfor resolving those cases, NYSGC chairman Brian O'Dwyer told
him that in light of the scrutiny related to the Forte delay, hesuspected that the commission "will be very, very diligent interms of making sure that those things are adjudicated much
more promptly."
It turns out that Rice's bute finding was one of thosethen-undisclosed cases. It took more than eight months fromthe date of the alleged violation until a ruling was issued.

CHALLENGE SERIES, OTHER GRADED ACTION
WHISTLES INTO WEEKEND
by J.N. Campbell
Just over 100 years ago, the Jockey Club's resident New Yorkhandicapper, William Vosburgh, knew the value of history andunderstood how it could be applied when he penned his
magnum opus, Racing In America, 1866-1921.
The turf wordsmith revealed his intent in the Preface when hesaid, "I shall show that, owing to want of popular support, racing
had fallen so low, and so infrequent, as to excite little or nointerest."
What he was talking about was a sport in crisis, as progressive
forces in America drove racing to the edge of extinction. With
renewed governmental support from states and a bit of luckfrom private sources in the 1920s, everything began to turn

It's a cycle of precipices Thoroughbred racing has continued toweather to this day.
In the current era, one of the

the Breeders' Cup WorldChampionships, is set for its
40th edition in November. As

Heading to the Downhill Turf Course, a competitive group of
grass specialists will cross paths with one other led by MGSW
Bran (Fr) (Muhaarar {GB}) from John Sadler's stable. The darkbay gelding will line up along the inside next to MGSP Sumter(War Front), who goes with the blinkers for Richard Mandella.
Staying on the grass, the GII City of Hope Mile S. wraps up theevening with a route as local favorite MGSW Hong Kong Harry(Ire) (Es Que Love {Ire}) returns to a course where he has
captured three wins in five attempts.
The Sunday Santa Anita slate has its share of graded action as
the GII Zenyatta S. marks the return of Michael Lund Petersen's
Adare Manor (Uncle Mo), who comes in riding a four-race win
streak. Also featured will be the GIII Tokyo City Cup S. and the
GII John Henry Turf Championship S.
Sunday's BAQ Forecast, Brighter Days Ahead
Speaking of the Jockey Club's New York historian andhandicapper, William Vosburgh received a nod from the New
York Racing Association when they named a race after him. Now
moved to Sunday because of a deluge, the GII Vosburgh S.
continues to be a mainstay on the NYRA stakes schedule and,with the Belmont Park construction, returned to Aqueduct lastyear for the first time since 1986. The seven-furlong event offers
paid entry into the GI Qatar Racing Breeders' Cup Sprint.

Last year's GI Breeders' Cup Big Ass Fans Dirt Mile champ
Cody's Wish (Curlin) certainly impressed when the 5-year-old
took home both the GI Churchill Downs S. and Belmont Park's GI
Met Mile earlier this summer. Even though the stretch out in the
GI Whitney H. at Saratoga did not yield a win, his ability isunmatched even over a wet surface against five others here.
AOne turn and seven [furlongs] to a mile is good for him,@ said
Hall of Fame trainer Bill Mott. AWe wanted to see if he could win
the Whitney--it=s a very important race and if he could win the
Met Mile and the Whitney, those are two very big races.@
The Sunday BAQ card also sports three other graded races.
Heavy morning-line favorite Caramel Swirl (Union Rags), who
was a runner-up in last year's GI Ballerina at Saratoga, finishedfourth this time around to MGISW Echo Zulu (Gun Runner). The
5-year-old mare will look to get back on track in the GII Gallant
Bloom S. when she faces five others.
A soggy turf course at Aqueduct will not deter runners for the
GI Joe Hirsch Turf Classic S. Going the distance will be MGISW
War Like Goddess (English Channel), who faces the boys once
again after she missed by just a neck against older females in the
GII Glens Falls S. Aug. 3 at Saratoga. Also headed to the post will
be GI Breeders' Cup Turf victor Rebel's Romance (Ire) (Dubawi{Ire}), who last lost his rider in the GII Bowling Green S. July 30
at Saratoga. The dark bay gelding will not only have to contend
with War Like Goddess but also MGISP Soldier Rising (GB)(Frankel {GB}) and MGISP Stone Age (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}).

AIt is a fact-finding mission,@ said Ed Crisford, who shares alicense with his father. AWe want to see if he can handle theAmerican dirt because it is different than Meydan. I do think the
New York tracks are more similar to Meydan than some of theother tracks. We want to see what he can do against top
American dirt horses. If he goes well, wins or runs very well, we
can justify going to the Breeders= Cup. If not, we=ll probably justtake him back to Dubai. It all depends on what happens on theweekend.@

become a 25-length laugher. However, Ridin With Bidenappeared to have second-place wrapped up as he was eight
lengths clear of the rest of the field at the eighth pole. But when
he pulled the horse up, he was caught for the place, losing out
by a nose to 84-1 shot My Imagination (Lea).
Here=s how the Equibase chart caller saw it: ARidin With Biden
prompted the winner to midway on the final turn, proved nomatch then was eased in the final stages costing the place.@
For third-place, Ridin With Biden earned $19,000 or $19,000
less than the second-place payout of $38,000. Lopez=s movealso, no doubt, costs plenty of bettors. The combination of Next
over Ridin With Biden was the lowest payout among all exactas.

Ridin With Biden & Paco Lopez | Sarah Andrew

PACO LOPEZ SUSPENDED 30 DAYS FOR
GREENWOOD CUP RIDE
by Bill Finley
Jockey Paco Lopez, who pulled up his mount Ridin With Biden(Constitution) a few steps before the finish of last Saturday=s GIII
Greenwood Cup S. at Parx, likely costing the horse a secondplace finish, was handed a 30-day suspension Thursday by the
stewards at Parx.
In ruling, the stewards wrote that the suspension was Afor
failure to give his best effort and failure to use the proper
diligence in Race 7 on September 23, 2023 while astride thehorse Ridin With Biden...@The suspension began Thursday and will conclude on Oct. 27.
Lopez has waived his right to appeal.
AThe penalty is justified,@ said trainer Butch Reid. AWe have tolook out for our owners as well as the betting public. My
concern was that the horse was sound and he is. He has beeninspected by state vets three times since the race and is fine."
In the Greenwood Cup, a mile-and-a-half race, Ridin With
Biden chased the winner Next (Not This Time) for about 10
furlongs before that rival started to pull away to what would

Talk about keeping good company.
Kirstenbosch (Midnight Lute), a 4-year-old making her 17th
lifetime start for trainer John Sadler, has not raced out ofgraded-stakes company since her third-place finish in the GI La
Brea S. Dec. 26. Perhaps more impressively, she's been on theboard in all but three of the eight starts since that postChristmas trifecta. And though absent of the winner's circle
since victory in the GIII La Canada S. Jan. 15, Kirstenbosch has
run second or third to GISW Adare Manor (Uncle Mo) and a pairof Friday's rivals in GSW/GISP Elm Drive (Mohaymen) and GISW
Eda (Munnings).
Facing an opportunity to turn the tables on those rivals,
Friday's 6-1 shot spotted the field a step at the break and trailed
with only Lady T (Into Mischief) to keep her company as theremaining five runners all vied for command into the opening
furlong. Several lengths out of it still as the speed began to sortitself out into the turn, Kirstenbosch had Clearly Unhinged (Into
Mischief), Home Cooking (Honor Code) and Elm Drive to catchas heavily-favored Eda was already under a ride from fourth.
Switched inside around the bend and back out again at the topof the lane, she had a clear path to victory and surged past
Clearly Unhinged inside the final sixteenth to score the upset.
AWhat I=ve been talking about with Keith (Abrahams) is it is not
the distance for her, it is the setup, and she finally got the setup
she wanted, which is faster,@ said trainer John Sadler. AShealways puts in a good late run, but if they go slow in front it=ssometimes hard for her.@
When asked about a potential next run in the GI Breeders' Cup
Filly & Sprint, Sadler didn't hesitate: AYes, because it=s seveneighths and you might get a strong pace,@ he added.

GAVEA (GER) (f, 2, Gleneagles {Ire}--Goiania {GB} {SW-Ger}, byOasis Dream {GB}) made her July 16 French debut at Chantilly awinning one by the slimmest of margins, and after moving to thestates from the barn of conditioner Waldemar Hickst to Al Stall
Jr., scored this victory in much the same fashion. Secured in a
private sale by Bal Mar Equine from Dr. Christoph Berglar, theGerman-born 9-5 favorite was well placed early as a trio in frontof her disputed leadership rights. Taking aim from three off thefence and coming fast, she drove past the leader in midstretch
but was lingering on the wrong lead. Changing to the right latein the furlong grounds as Mo Fox Givin (Mo Town) was looming
the danger, she shifted out at the sixteenth pole as that one
rapidly closed the gap but gamely hung on by a head. Gavea has
a winning elder sister in Germany and thus far is the lastregistered offspring for her dam, a stakes winner in their homecountry. Sales history: i36,000 RNA Ylg '22 BBAGS. Lifetime

The 7-5 favorite for this next step up, Poetica jumped well andrated in third as the leading pair set the fractions. Patiently
handled from the rail through the bend, she was roused for her
run at the quarter pole and skimmed the paint to take over at
the top of the stretch as Essential Business (Practical Joke)
drifted into the track. She was kept to her business late but
easily kept that rival at bay by 2 1/4 lengths. The flag bearer forher dam, Poetica has a yearling Laoban half-sister as well as a2023 Maxfield half-sister. Dam Poetic Justice visited Olympiad

FILLE D'ESPRIT (m, 7, Great Notion--Sweet Valor, by No

on the Laurel stakes calendar and with plenty of frequent flyer
miles up and down the Midatlantic seaboard, was last seen in arunner-up effort in the Feb. 18 GIII Barbara Fritchie S. Missing by
a half-length to GSW Swayin to and Fro (Straight Talking), it wasa placing higher than her effort in the 2022 rendition of therace, where she ran into MGSW Glass Ceiling (Constitution) and
MGSP Jakarta (Bustin Stones). With torrential rain drenching theregion, this race was scratched down to a party of three and she
was crowned the 2-5 favorite, stalking I=m Gittin There (Golden
Lad) and Edie MeenyMinyMo (Upstart) as those two disputed
how much early speed they wanted to give. Advancing throughthe turn for home, Fille d=Esprit took command quickly and drew
off by 2 1/2 lengths as I=m Gittin There got the best of Edie
MeenyMinyMo in a photo. The very first foal for a dam who hassince produced two more winners from as many to be born, thevictress has a 2-year-old half-sister Never More Valor (No NeverNo More) as well as a yearling half-sister Cross of Valor (Blofeld).

Vandeek (left) | Scoop Dyga

by Tom Frary
Saturday=s action features four Group 1s and four Group 2s
across Newmarket and ParisLongchamp, with all ages anddistances covered from the six furlongs of the G1 Juddmonte
Middle Park S. and G1 Juddmonte Cheveley Park S. to the twoand a half miles of the G1 Qatar Prix du Cadran. It is the former
pair of prizes that take centre stage, with so much at stake forthe precocious stars of their generation. The onus is very muchon KHK Racing=s G1 Prix Morny winner Vandeek (GB) (Havana
Grey {GB}) in the Middle Park given the manner of his success inthat Deauville feature, having taken the G2 Richmond S. enroute.
Since 2012, five winners of the Morny have followed up here
including three of the last four in Blackbeard (Ire) (No Nay
Never), Perfect Power (Ire) (Ardad {Ire}) and Earthlight (Ire)(Shamardal), so the Crisfords= leading light has history on his
side. Ed Crisford is keen to see if he can become the latest to do
the tough double.
AIt=s a good field, as you=d expect for a race of this stature, but
I=d say he goes in there with a favourite=s chance,@ he said.

Mirpuri.
That sale continued the theme of well-bred fillies commanding
plenty of respect in the ring during Book 1 and Book 2 of thisyear's Orby Sale.
Lot 955 was purchased by the Polish agent Kishore Mirpuri on
behalf of Macie Jodlowski, the leading trainer in thatjurisdiction. However, neither had time to chat, as they quickly
nipped off to Dublin Airport to catch a flight home as soon as
they signed the dotted line.
There was no shortage of buyers at the upper end of themarket but the middle to lower tiers remained patchy acrossboth days of the Book 2 Sale. The statistics backed up such astatement.
All told, the sale returned an aggregate of i8,097,500,
representing a 22% fall from the Sportsman's Sale last year.

Thought For The Day
Reading between the lines of Henry Beeby=s statement
following Part 2 of the Orby Sale, a smaller and more selectcatalogue could be in store next year. That would make sense
given how things played out this week.
In the defence of Goffs, it must be remembered that any
agents who hoped to get some viewing done on day two of Orby
Book 1 were stopped in their tracks due to the pretty vicious
storm. Without having got around to all of the barns, they
couldn=t exactly leave lengthy lists for horses to be bought inBook 2.

But all things considered, Goffs will no doubt be disappointed
by the lack of a buying bench for those middle to lower tierhorses. It will be interesting how trade is for horses in thatbracket for the rest of the yearling sale season but perhaps amore streamlined version of Orby Book 2 would work best in
future.

Traditionally, the October Sale, under its various guises over
the years, brought the curtain up on the autumn season at
Tattersalls, but since a reshuffling of venues, which brought the
Ascot Yearling Sale, now known as the Somerville, to Tattersalls,
the sale grounds have already been busy in Newmarket since
the yearling season began, and we head into a frenetic fortnighton the back of encouraging results not just at the Somerville, but
pretty much across the board in Europe and America.
"The sales calendar bears no resemblance to how it once was,and we've had the addition of the August Sale and SomervilleYearling Sale in recent years just at Park Paddocks alone. Under
the Tattersalls umbrella it's grown out of all recognition, with
Cheltenham and Tattersalls Ireland and the online sales,"George says.
"But it still remains that the Tattersalls sales season really kicks
off with the October Yearling Sale. That's when we become thefocal point and it's pretty intense for those two weeks of Books
1 through to 4.
"It's a busy time, but it's an exciting time, and there's a lot
riding on it for everybody. It's very busy for the trainers and theagents, but the owners enjoy their time at the sales as well. And
long may that last, it's very much part of the ownershipexperience."

Successful here and at Chantilly either side of a third to
Havana Cigar (GB) (Havana Grey {GB}) over a six-furlong tripthat was too sharp at Chantilly in July, the Andre Fabre trainee

field with Mickael Barzalona content to wait.
Allowing White Birch Farm=s fellow TDN Rising Star Havana
Cigar first run in the straight, the i180,000 Arqana December
Foal purchase was finally unleashed wide of the remainder totake control a furlong out en route to a comfortable 2 1/2length success. The Aga Khan=s unexposed Saganti (Fr) (Zarak{Fr}) got up for second, a short neck ahead of Havana Cigar who
appeared to tire late.

Alcantor | Scoop Dyga

AHis last race was the perfect education to teach him to relax
after he had done too much in front on his second start,@
Edouard De Rothschild said. AWe also made the right decision
not to run him in the Prix des Chenes at Longchamp on a day
when the temperature reached new heights. He is certainly avery good horse with a lot of talent and it would be nice for his
future career at stud to try to win a Group 1 this year, so the
Criterium International is a possibility. We will first see how hecomes out of this race and then decide then if we run him again
this season or wait for 2024.@

TIME LOCK TO THE FORE IN THE PRINCESSROYAL by Tom Frary
Having shown flashes of talent so far, Juddmonte=s Time Lock
(GB) (Frankel {GB}) needed to put it all together and duly built
on a ego-boosting Listed Grand Prix de Craon win to stamp herclass all over Friday=s G3 Princess Royal Al Basti Equiworld, Dubai
S. at Newmarket.
Runner-up to the operation=s classy Haskoy (GB) (Golden Horn{GB}) in York=s Listed Galtres S. last August, the Harry and Roger
Charlton-trained granddaughter of Passage Of Time (GB) (Dansili{GB}) had gone four outings without making the breakthroughprior to her foray to north-western France.

Time Lock | Racingfotos.com

Always travelling strongly towards the rear for Ryan Moore,
the 9-2 shot moved easily to the front approaching two out andgalloped relentlessly to the line for a commanding 4 1/4-length
success in this competitive affair. Adding ballast to the form, theGosdens= progressive 3-year-old Sweet Memories (Ire) (Sea The
Stars {Ire}) was second, with the same stable=s impressive Listed
Pretty Polly S. winner and one-time leading Oaks fancy Running
Lion (GB) (Roaring Lion) another 1 1/2 lengths away in third.
AWe had been struggling to get our stakes win here, so we
decided to bring her over to France for the race we won lastyear with a nice filly and she bolted up--I=d say it gave her a bitof confidence and she looks to have improved for it,@
Juddmonte=s Barry Mahon said. AThey went quick and they wenta proper mile-and-a-half pace for a Group 3. She stays well, isgenuine and tries hard and has always looked a good filly.@
Ascot=s Champions Day fixture could be on the cards now,according to the operation=s racing manager. AWe could
definitely think about giving the [G1] British Champion Fillies &Mares S. a go, but it would need to be good or good-to-soft

Another true blueblood to win at this Cambridgeshire meeting,Time Lock is the first foal out of Time Chaser (GB) (Dubawi {Ire})
who shares her aforementioned G1 Criterium de Saint-Cloudwinning dam Passage Of Time with the multiple group winnerand group and Grade I-placed sire Time Test (GB) and the dualGroup 3 scorer Tempus (GB) (Kingman {GB}). Passage Of Time,
who was also placed in the GI Breeders= Cup Filly and Mare Turf,

Hall Stud alongside his sire in Newmarket next season. A fee forthe five-time top-level victor will be announced in due course.
Trained by Charlie Appleby, he won both the G3 Somerville S.
and GI Breeders= Cup Juvenile Turf at two. Sent to France atthree, Modern Games duly nabbed the G1 Poule d=Essai desPoulains and was third in the G1 Prix du Jockey Club, and secondin the G1 Sussex S. two starts later. Returned to North America,
the royal blue colourbearer added the GI Woodbine Mile S. and
the GI Breeders= Cup Mile, with a runner-up performance in the
G1 Queen Elizabeth II S. in between. Kept in training at four, the4-year-old ran second in the GI Mile S. at Keeneland before
adding the G1 Lockinge S. at Newbury in May. In his final start,

AHe is now available to view, breeders should come and see

The chestnut is a half-brother to 2023 G1 1000 Guineas

CLASSY SPRINTER CASTLE STAR JOINS THE
CAPITAL STUD ROSTER FOR 2024
by Brian Sheerin
Castle Star (Ire), one of the highest-rated sprinting sons ofStarspangledbanner (Aus), will stand at Capital Stud in 2024.
A smart sprinter for Fozzy Stack, Castle Star landed the G3
Marble Hill S. He also won the First Flier S. at the Curragh during
an exciting juvenile campaign that saw him narrowly miss out on
Group 1 honours when runner-up to Perfect Power (Ire) (Ardad{Ire}) in the Middle Park S.
Castle Star will stand alongside Alkumait (GB), Hunting Horn(Ire) and Mirage Dancer (GB) at the County Kilkenny-based studin Ireland.
He was described by Stack as Astraightforward with a great
constitution@ and Capital Stud's Ger O'Neill said he was delighted
with the acquisition.
AWe're delighted to stand a horse of Castle Star's calibre,@
O'Neill said. AThroughout his two-year-old career he displayed
speed, soundness and courage while also having the good looks
and pedigree to boot.
AOne of the most appealing aspects of standing him for us isaccess to the Danehill sire line which is becoming more andmore difficult.
AHe is also from the family of our very own Alkumait. We lookforward to supporting Castle Star with some of our best mares
and welcoming breeders to Capital Stud to see him.@

All-Weather Championships Cont.
This year there are some notable changes to the structure of
the All-Weather Championships, including removing the >Fast
Track Qualifier= status from races which previously earned
horses a guaranteed entry to the Final in each category. The rule
requiring three runs on an all-weather racing surface in Britain[at either Chelmsford City, Kempton Park, Lingfield Park,
Newcastle, Southwell or Wolverhampton, Ireland or France toqualify for the Newcastle and Lingfield Park fixtures remains,
and one of the three runs can take place in either Dubai or Saudi
Arabia.
Prize-money values will remain unchanged with each Finalcontinuing to offer ,150,000, with the Middle-Distance Final set
at ,200,000.
New for Season XI will be two All-Weather Championships
Trials Day fixtures, hosting a series of ,45,000 open handicaps at
Newcastle on Jan. 1 and Lingfield Park on Mar. 1. The winner of
each race will be eligible for free entry to the corresponding
Finals Day race at Newcastle and a ,30,000 bonus should they
go on to also win the finals. Any horse that wins at both
All-Weather Trials Days in the same category and goes on to also
win at Newcastle will be eligible for a total bonus of ,75,000.
ARC also announced the return of the ,1-million All-Weather
Bonus Scheme earlier this year, which will once again offer
monthly, and end of season, rewards to the most consistent
performers across the groups four all-weather racecourses. The
scheme runs in conjunction with the All-Weather
Championships, starting on the same date, Oct. 17.
AThe All-Weather Championships is a popular competition
throughout the winter months,@ Managing Director of ARC=s
Racing Division, Mark Spincer, said. AWe have, however, lookedat the structure of the programme, in conjunction with the BHA,

Signing off her spell in her native Britain with a win, the USbound Coppice who had caused such a stir on her impressive
winning 2-year-old debut at Kempton and who had taken Royal
Ascot=s ever-competitive Sandringham H. gave an indication as
to her worth as a member of the Juddmonte crew across the
Atlantic. Anchored in rear early by Frankie Dettori, the full-sister
to Calyx (GB) was delivered with her trademark acceleration on
the wing and kept finding despite not handling the undulations
to deny the seasoned Potapova and a blanket of others close
home. There was a sad postscript to the race after the usefulRothschild blueblood Crystal Caprice (Ire) (Frankel {GB}) was
pulled up soon into the race with a serious injury.
AShe has picked up in the last part, as a mile or a mile-one
would be her trip,@ John Gosden said of the winner. AShe has
won at Royal Ascot and she is back to her best here and she has
now got the black-type. I think she won very well at Ascot. I
know it was a handicap, but she was carrying plenty of weight.
She was out early in the year and she got stuck in the mud if you
remember, so plans for the Guineas went by the board, but she
has held her form well through the year.@ Cont. p23

digging deep to find the line just ahead for a breakthroughsuccess.

That Piz Badile was able to win a G3 Ballysax S. and finish
runner-up in an Irish Derby at three was almost a bonus given
his physical scope for improvement, so this latest instalment of
his ongoing story is a welcome one for connections. Third in The
Curragh=s G2 Mooresbridge S. and G1 Tattersalls Gold Cup in thespring, the homebred was able to move forward easily from his
wide draw and race prominently throughout the early stages ofthis return to action. In front passing two out, he was joined
shortly after by Sea The Casper and again proved his
determination as he had at Leopardstown last April to see offthat raider.
Piz Badile is the first foal out of the dam, who was successful inthe Listed Prix Zarkava and runner-up in the G2 Prix Corrida. She
is a daughter of Shiva (Jpn) (Hector Protector), who captured theaforementioned Tattersalls Gold Cup and was placed in the G1
Champion S. and G1 Eclipse S. and is the second dam of the G2

AThe Coolmore family have always been a pleasure to deal

NAMURA CLAIR DRAWN COSILY FORSPRINTERS' AS GROUP 1 RACING RETURNSTO JAPAN by Alan Carasso
After a break of just over 100 days, elite-level racing returns to
the Japanese racing scene, as a full field of 18 is set to face thestarter in Sunday's Sprinters' S. at Nakayama Racecourse.
Five of the entrants are making a repeat appearance in the
1200-metre test, including Namura Clair (Jpn) (Mikki Isle {Jpn}),
who was a sound fifth in last year's running in what was her final
appearance as a 3-year-old.
After besting First Force (Jpn) (Lord Kanaloa {Jpn}) in the
G3 Silk Road S. in January, the filly was runner-up to that rival ina soggy-turf renewal of the G1 Takamatsunomiya Kinen Mar. 26.
An even eighth to the GI Breeders' Cup Mile-bound Songline(Jpn) (Kizuna {Jpn}) in the G1 Victoria Mile in May, she mostrecently overcame a wide trip from a double-digit barrier to takeout the G3 Keeneland Cup at Sapporo Aug. 27. One of sevenfemales in the field, she has drawn the inside stall for this return
to Group 1 competition.

AShe=s filled out a lot more and is able to concentrate better onwhat=s needed in a race, whether it=s speed or closing well at thefinish,@ said jockey Suguru Hamanaka. AShe=s certainly in goodcondition, and she should run well if everything goes her way.@
Aguri (Jpn) (Caravaggio), a grandson of GISW Together (Ire)(Galileo {Ire}), cost nearly $1 million at the 2020 JRHA Select Saleand is battle tested for a relatively lightly raced horse. Victorious
in a Group 3 test over 1400 metres on seasonal debut Feb. 26,
he weakened to seventh in the easy ground in the
Takamatsunomiya Kinen and was fifth behind Lucky Sweynesse(NZ) (Sweynesse {Aus}) in the G1 Chairman's Sprint Prize in Hong
Kong Apr. 30. Resuming as a 3-1 chance in the G2 Centaur S.
Sept. 10, he fell far behind, but whooshed home to be second to
front-running T M Spada (Jpn) (Red Spada {Jpn}) while covering
his final 600m in a race-fastest :32.4.
Jasper Krone (Frosted) looks to become the second Americanbred winner of the Sprinters' in succession after Gendarme(Kitten's Joy) pulled off a 19-1 surprise last fall. Possessed ofblistering speed, he'll try to outfoot them from a high alley andgo as far and as fast as he can. The 4-year-old has employed allthe-way tactics in consecutive Group 3 scores at this distance,
including a half-length defeat of Sodashi (Jpn) (Kurofune)'s fullsister Mama Cocha (Jpn) in the Kitakyushu Kinen at the end of
August.
Pixie Knight (Jpn) (Maurice {Jpn}) won this as a 3-year-old in
2021 and was a sneaky good eighth in the Centaur, and All At
Once (Jpn) (Makfi {GB}) also has longshot claims, as he weaved
his way through traffic under deft handling to upset the G3 Ibis
Summer Dash down the 1000-metre straight at Niigata first off ayear layoff July 30.
