LIBERTY BEACH NOTFOR THE TAKING
by Emma Berry
As the yearling sales season gets underway there will
doubtless be breeders who end up taking yearlings home with
them, but they may take some comfort from one of this season's
feel-good stories.
If things had gone to plan last September, the G3 Markel
Insurance Molecomb S. winner Liberty Beach (GB) would have
been racing in colours other than those of her breeder, Philip
Wilkins. Plan A for this first-crop daughter of Cable Bay (Ire) was
her first public outing at the Tattersalls Ascot Yearling Sale. But
when no bidder came forward at a suitable level, Wilkins bought
her in at ,16,000 and sent her back to Mickley Stud where she
had been born. Plan B has been highly successful.
Since being put into training by Wilkins with John Quinn, and in
only three short months since she made her debut, Liberty
Beach is now a four-time winner with two stakes victories to her
name. She heads next to the G2 Sky Bet Lowther S. at York's
Ebor meeting.
"I hadn't expected this at all," says Wilkins, who bought Liberty
Beach's dam, the Southwell maiden winner Flirtinaskirt (GB)
(Avonbridge {GB}), as a yearling with trainer Ed McMahon eight
years ago for ,11,000. Cont. p2
KING KAMEHAMEHA DEAD AT 18by Kelsey Riley
Multiple Group 1 winner and perennial leading Japanese sire
King Kamehameha (Jpn) (KingmamboBManfath {Ire}, by Last
Tycoon {Ire}), who was recently pensioned at Shadai Stallion
Station, has died aged 18. King Kamehameha was bred by
Northern Farm and raced by Makoto Kaneko. Kaneko also
campaigned Deep Impact (Jpn), who died just weeks ago
following spinal surgery.
King Kamehameha is out Manfath, who raced in Britain for
Sheikh Hamdan but failed to find the winner=s enclosure in
seven outings. Manfath was offloaded for 4,200gns at the 1994
Tattersalls December Mares Sale, and proved to be an incredible
bargain when her first live foal, The Deputy (Ire) (Petardia {GB}),
went on to win the GI Santa Anita Derby in 2000. Manfath, by
that point, had already been expatriated to the U.S., and she
was sold to Katsumi Yoshida at Keeneland November in 2000
carrying King Kamehameha for $650,000.
King Kamehameha won seven of his eight starts over the
2003/2004 seasons. Unbeaten in two outings at two, he finished
third on his 3-year-old debut but would not lose again. Cont. p14

I’M GETTING SO MUCH ENJOYMENT
OUT OF IT I JUST DON’T WANT TO SELL.
IT’S NOT A BUSINESS FOR ME, SO I
DON’T HAVE TO RELY ON SELLING.Philip Wilkins
Liberty Beach Cont. from p1
"I didn't start breeding until Flirtinaskirt was retired. I was just
hoping to be able to get back into racing. We know there's some
talent in the pedigree but I never dreamed she would be as
successful as this, certainly not straightaway."
He continues. "I've been involved in racing horses since about
2004 but I'd never really had a great deal of success with horses
racing beyond the age of four. I just seemed to have injury
problems with every single horse and then I lost a horse who
had cost a lot of money in my eyes.
"Ed McMahon's wife Rachel felt that Flirtinaskirt would make a
good mother and I thought, 'well why not?' I'd met Richard Kent
in Newmarket when I'd been at the sales and decided to send
her to Mickley Stud, where she was covered by Heeraat (Ire)."
Flirtinaskirt's first foal by the Mickley Stud stallion was born
prematurely and, according to her breeder, lacked strength.
Named Tease Maid (GB), she too is in training with Quinn and
has been placed once but has had to play second fiddle to her
year-younger sister.
"Alastair Nicholson gave us some mating advice for the mare,"
Wilkins explains. "The first three stallions he suggested for her
were well beyond the budget and the fourth on the list was
Cable Bay, so he was within budget and we sent her off to him.
The rest is history."
In a family which boasts plenty of fillies, there is another to
follow from Flirtinaskirt, a first-crop daughter of Mehmas (Ire).
She lost her foal this year and is now in foal to Mickley Stud's
new stallion Massaat (Ire).
"Her Mehmas half-sister is a cracker to look at and they're
chalk and cheese really, but Liberty Beach has a real engine,"
says the breeder. "I could have another one on my hands with
her but then I might not, but that doesn't matter, I'm just going
to enjoy it. The whole family is really enjoying this, we're in
another world."
And Wilkins is not about to allow the fun to stop any time
soon. Predictably, a number of agents have signalled their
interest, not just in Liberty Beach but in her dam, too. But each
has been rebuffed with the simple message, 'not for sale.'
Similarly, the Mehmas filly will not be sent to a yearling sale.
He says, "We had quite an unbelievable offer for Liberty Beach
and after that was turned down Richard has fended everyone
else off. We had our own business which has now been handed
down to the children, but I was able to take a sum of money out
of the business and with that we're comfortable. We would
rather have the excitement in our retirement of going racing and
having a racehorse who is successful. You can go to try to buy
them at the sales, but as we've already experienced, it doesn't
always work out." Cont. p3

Richard Kent of Mickley Stud | Emma Berry
Liberty Beach Cont.
With their son Scott now at the helm of the family company
Hexis UK, Wilkins and his wife Barbara, who live in Lichfield,
Staffordshire, have more time to visit their fledgling breeding
operation at Mickley Stud. They keep two mares with Richard
Kent, whom the Wilkins credits with much of the success.
"Richard is such a nice guy and has done so much to help me,"
he says. "I can't think of anyone who knows more about horses
than he does. When Flirtinaskirt lost her foal this year, Richard
and Claire were out having a meal for Claire's birthday. He got a
phone call and dropped everything in the middle of his meal to
rush back and look after the mare. He just left the table and I
love that sort of attitude. I've employed many people in the past
and you don't often find people with that level of dedication."
He adds, "The mare has gone back in foal and we are keeping
our fingers crossed that she carries this one without any
problems, and then we'll probably put her to something a little
bit more serious. If she has problems foaling this year I won't
cover her again. I have Tease Maid and we might even send her
to Cable Bay. That's the thing about breeding--it's a complete
unknown quantity and you don't know what you're going to get,
but at the moment I feel like I've won the lottery."
Three generations of the Wilkins family will be at York on
Aug. 22, including Philip and Barbara's 4-year-old
granddaughter, who will be making her first trip to the races to
cheer on Liberty Beach as she takes her next step up the ladder.
"She has that real burst of speed and it will take a good horse
to beat her," Wilkins says. "It was her Sandown run that made
me realise I really had a racehorse. Up until then I'd been
pinching myself and I kept thinking that the bubble was going to
burst any time, that something was bound to go wrong. I'd
never had a first-time out winner, which she was, and then she
won the Hillary Needler on her second start and that has been a
listed race in the past.@
He added, AShe went so well at Royal Ascot [when fourth inthe Queen Mary] and if we had had the luck of the draw, maybewe could nearly have got there, there's no way to tell of course.She wants to run and that's what's so wonderful about her, shedoesn't need any persuading." Looking ahead, Wilkins has one more race in mind for his starfilly before the end of the season, with the G1 Cheveley Park S. apotential target if all goes well in the Lowther. "It would be a bit like having a bronze, silver and gold medal ifshe could do that. Then she would have a holiday," he says. The only problem Liberty Beach has provided her breeder withto date is finding the space to display her trophy haul, especiallyonce he had made his firm decision to continue to ignore alloffers to lure her away. "I'm getting so much enjoyment out of it I just don't want tosell," he says emphatically. "The day will come when I will haveto sell some of the family but at least we're improving thepedigree and she has some nice black-type there now. I don'treally like the way people come in and try to buy their way intoother people's success. I've been fortunate: it's not a businessfor me, so I don't have to rely on selling. I don't want ahelicopter, I don't want a plane, I don't want a boat. We're quitehappy where we are, doing what we're doing. My wife doesn'twant to leave our home to live in a mansion, so what's the pointof putting lots of money in the bank? We will keep racing thefilly." Cont. p4

Addeybb | Racing Post
Liberty Beach Cont.
With such an admirable approach to a sport in which the sheer
fun of it can sometimes be overtaken by more pecuniary
matters, it's hard not to hope that Wilkins continues to enjoy a
joyful summer on Liberty Beach.
ADDEYBB BOSSES THE ROSE OF LANCASTER Having met his match in Elarqam (GB) (Frankel {GB}) in the July
27 G2 York S., Sheikh Ahmed bin Rashid Al Maktoum=s Addeybb
(Ire) (Pivotal {GB}) enjoyed a confidence-restoring success in
Saturday=s G3 Rose of Lancaster S. at Haydock. With the
Merseyside venue hit by plentiful rain, the impressive June 18
Listed Wolferton S. winner coasted along in the testing
conditions under Richard Kingscote as the 3-year-old Raise You
(Ire) (Lope de Vega {Ire}) cut out the running. Moving through to
take command with two furlongs remaining, the bay who also
took last year=s G2 Sandown Mile extended to secure a 2 1/4-
length success from another talented 3-year-old in Pondus (GB)
(Sea the Moon {Ger}).
AHe travelled nicely, got a nice tow into the race and showed
that he=s a good horse on this heavy ground,@ Kingscote said. AI
think for now that trips suits him--they went a nicely-building
gallop--and there is no rush to make him stay further.@
Addeybb, whose task was made easier by the rain which also
led to the withdrawal of his main rival Wissahickon (Tapit), has
been fortunate with the weather this term unlike in 2018 when
he was withdrawn from multiple targets. Granted slow ground
when winning in convincing fashion at Royal Ascot, he is building
towards a potentially profitable autumn.
Pedigree Notes The winning dam Bush Cat (Kingmambo) is a daughter of the
listed scorer and G3 Royal Whip S. third Arbusha (Danzig), who is
a full-sister to the G2 Goldene Peitsche hero Nicholas and the
mare Danlu. She is in turn the dam of the G1 Irish St Leger and
G1 Gran Premio di Milano winner Strategic Choice (Alleged),
with this being the dam line of the U.S. Fillies= Triple Crown
heroine Shuvee (Nashua). Bush Cat also has a 2-year-old filly by
Lawman (Fr) and a yearling colt by Literato (Fr).

WEST END GIRL TOPS SWEET SOLERA Fifth but unlucky not to finish closer in the Listed Star S. last
time, Alan Spence=s West End Girl (GB) (Golden Horn {GB})
applied the building block to up her game and conquer
Newmarket=s G3 German-thoroughbred.com Sweet Solera S. on
Saturday. Badly hampered late and around two lengths behind
stablemate Walk In Marrakesh (Ire) (Siyouni {Fr}) in that
Sandown encounter which took place in soaring temperatures
July 25, the bay had provided her sire with his first winner on
debut at Haydock July 5. In front from the outset, the 11-2 shot
was tackled and headed by the smooth-travelling Dark Lady
(GB) (Dark Angel {Ire}) a furlong out before it became physical as
they bumped together. Finishing off strongly to win that war of
attrition on the uphill climb, West End Girl had 1 1/4 lengths to
spare over the staying-on Soffika (Ire) (Zoffany {Ire}) at the line
with TDN Rising Star and 11-4 favourite Ultra Violet (GB)
(Gleneagles {Ire}) fading disappointingly to last after racing far
too freely.
Trainer Mark Johnston=s son and assistant Charlie had one
target in mind for the winner immediately afterwards. AThe [G2]
May Hill [at Doncaster Sept. 12] is the obvious race for her and I
was thinking that as soon as she crossed the line,@ he said. AI
thought she was in trouble at the two pole, but she was doing
her best work in the last 100 yards and the mile will suit her
there. We had left Sandown obviously quite pleased with the
result, but also knowing that this filly had shown huge promise
in defeat. She could even have won that with a clear passage
and this more galloping track was going to suit her. She tended
to lug left there and I don=t know what that was about, but it
was a pleasing performance.@
Pedigree Notes West End Girl, who now is the first black-type winner for her
G1 Epsom Derby, G1 Prix de l=Arc de Triomphe and G1 Eclipse-
winning sire, is out of a half-sister to the G1 Middle Park S., G1
Prix Morny and G2 Norfolk S. winner Reckless Abandon (GB)

Scandinavian listed scorer Tertio Bloom (Swe) (Tertullian). The

ROMANISED FACES JACQUES LE MAROIS TEST The highlight of Deauville=s month-long meeting, Sunday=s G1
Prix du Haras de Fresnay-le-Buffard Jacques le Marois has
welcomed a stronger group in the past and this below-par
renewal offers ideal opportunity for Romanised (Ire) (Holy
Roman Emperor {Ire}) to continue the overseas glut of success in
France. Highly impressive when overcoming a pace bias to beat
the seven-furlong specialist Hey Gaman (GB) (New Approach
{Ire}) in The Curragh=s G2 Minstrel S. over that trip July 20, last
year=s G1 Irish 2000 Guineas hero was previously an unlucky
fourth in the G1 Queen Anne S. at Royal Ascot June 18.
Romanised trainer=s Ken Condon is using Robert Ng=s smart
veteran Success Days (Ire) (Jeremy) as a pacemaker to ensure
the end-to-end gallop his Classic hero needs.
AHopefully there=ll be plenty of pace on, as I think it=s pretty
obvious by now Romanised is at his best when there=s a good
gallop,@ he said. ABoth horses seem well and Romanised has
been running to a good level all year. He ran a good race in the
Lockinge and ran well in Ascot, where he was maybe a bit
unlucky. He didn=t get the splits when he needed them and he
might have finished a little bit closer but for that. He backed that
up with a very good performance over a fast-run seven furlongs
at The Curragh.@ Cont. p8

Guineas heroine Hermosa (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) and Jubiloso (GB)
(Shamardal) when causing an upset in the G1 Coronation S. at
Royal Ascot June 21, but faces an altogether different test here.
Trainer Francis-Henri Graffard commented, AEverything is good
and I=m very pleased with the condition of the filly. We have had
plenty of time since Ascot. She is taking on the older horses and
the colts, so it should be an interesting race.@
There seems little obvious reason why last year=s G1 Prix du
Jockey Club hero Study of Man (Ire) (Deep Impact {Jpn}) should
win a race of this nature over the track and trip at which he was
a disappointing third in the July 21 G3 Prix Messidor, while
Godolphin=s Line of Duty (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) needs to bounce
back after a ninth in the G1 Epsom Derby at the start of June.
The latter, who took the GI Breeders= Cup Juvenile Turf and G3
Prix de Conde as a 2-year-old, is expected to be more effective
back at this trip on rain-softened turf. ALine of Duty has won
twice over a mile and hopefully there will be a bit of ease in the
ground at Deauville,@ trainer Charlie Appleby said. AHe didn=t
stay a mile and a half in the Derby and the ground was too quick
for him as well. We have left the cheekpieces on to help him
travel and are hoping that he can rekindle his 2-year-old form,
which should see him make the places.@
At Hoppegarten, the 129th G1 Longines Grosser Preis Von
Baden plays host to a trio of fascinating 4-year-olds in Old
Persian (GB) (Dubawi {Ire}), Communique (Ire) (Casamento
{Ire}) and French King (GB) (French Fifteen {Fr}). The former
holds sway on the basis of his Mar. 30 G1 Dubai Sheema Classic
success and has been rested since flopping when seventh in the
May 31 G1 Coronation Cup at Epsom. Charlie Appleby is hoping
he has him right.
AI think his victory in the Dubai Sheema Classic may have taken
slightly more out of him that we thought at the time,@ he
explained. AWe gave him a break after the Coronation Cup and,
if he brings his A-game to the race, we feel that he will be the
one to beat. He is a different horse compared to going into the
Coronation Cup--he has been freshened up and looks different
class now.@
Communique, who confirmed his love of Newmarket with a
game win in the G2 Princess of Wales=s S. there last time July 11,
was fourth in the Coronation Cup and could be an improved
performer in 2019. Charlie Johnston thinks that is the case. AThe
horse ran to a career best [at Newmarket] and if he can
reproduce that effort, he will take a lot of beating,@ he said. AWe
are not going to find a weaker group one at home, so we knew
we would have to be prepared to travel. He is fairly versatile
regarding ground, but we would rather it be better ground.@
French King is on a roll, having annexed the Feb. 23 H H The
Amir Trophy, Cologne=s G2 Gerling-Preis May 5 and Hamburg=s
G2 Grosser Hansa Preis June 30.
There are some interesting juvenile contests on the day, with

victory aboard Indianapolis (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) in the Dubai Duty
Free Shergar Cup Challenge.
"It is a real thrill to get the award of the Dubai Duty Free Ride
of the Day,@ Zahra said. ATo be honest, I had never ridden at the
track and you can only walk up the straight and back. I thought
that for the first couple of races I could sit at the back a little and
let it all unfold on horses I don't know much about. On
Indianapolis I got there in the nick of time and it all went good.@
While The Girls could not defend their team title from last
year, team captain Hayley Turn retained the Silver Saddle award
for leading rider at the meeting, becoming the first rider to earn
that honor in back-to-back years. Two wins and a second in the
day=s final race put her at 40 points, five clear of Zahra.
"I can't believe I won the Silver Saddle again,@ Turner said. AIt's
a massive thrill--this event means so much to me. I really enjoy it
and it's great because all my family are here as well.
"Even though the other girls [Jamie Kah and Nanako Fujita]
didn't ride a winner, they will have gained lots of experience
from riding here and they've both enjoyed it. And it's brilliant
that our team finished joint-second as well. I'm definitely going
to celebrate this evening. I'd like to think that's bagged me a
spot here for next year."

Miss O Connor | Racing Post
Also Ran: Maid For Life (GB), Muchly (GB), Contrive (Ire), New
Day Dawn (Ire). Scratched: Agincourt (Ire), Ardiente (GB).
A winner on debut over this mile trip for the John Feane stable
at Gowran Park May 8, Miss O Connor marked her first start in
the famed Lael Stable silks with an emphatic 11-length success
in a novice median auction over 75 yards further at Nottingham
at the beginning of the month. Unfazed by having to do it from
the front there, the bay was quickly sent on again here with
Oisin Murphy keen to make his mount=s rivals work to make a
race of it. Angling over to grab the stand=s rail after the home
turn, she had Red Starlight to keep her honest in the final
furlong but was always doing enough to ensure the first black-
type win was in safe keeping.
Miss O Connor=s speedy dam, who is a half-sister to the dual
listed-winning and G3 Premio Primi Passi runner-up Mister
Cavern (GB) (Lion Cavern), has the unraced 3-year-old filly
Simply a Breeze (Ire) (Casamento {Ire}) and a 2-year-old colt by
French Navy (GB). She is out of Slow Jazz (Chief=s Crown), a half
to the G1 Middle Park S.-winning sire Zieten (Danzig) and his G1
Cheveley Park S.-winning full-sister Blue Duster. The latter is the
dam of the G3 Nell Gwyn S. and GIII Modesty H. winner Fantasia
(GB) (Sadler=s Wells) and the G3 Give Thanks S. winner Pink
Symphony (GB) (Montjeu {Ire}) and the second dam of the five-
times group-winning Western Hymn (GB) (High Chaparral {Ire}).

FUWAYRIT (IRE) (c, 2, Gutaifan {Ire}--Can Dance {GB}, by
Manduro {Ger}), who went so close to winning on debut when
denied a short head by Cobra Eye (GB) (Kodiac {GB}) in a maiden
over this trip at the Goodwood festival July 30, enjoyed a lead
until taking control passing the two-furlong pole. Soon beyond
recall, the 8-11 favourite was kept up to his work to register a
3/4-of-a-length success from Ralphy Boy Two (Ire) (Gutaifan
{Ire}). The dam hails from a George Strawbridge family, being a
daughter of the G1 Moyglare Stud S. third Pearl Dance
(Nureyev) which makes her a half to the G3 Prix Chloe scorer
Sparkling Beam (Ire) (Nayef), the multiple group-placed Hong
Kong runner Born In Bombay (GB) (Shamardal) and Rainbow
Springs (GB) (Selkirk) who was third in the G1 Prix Marcel
Boussac. Also connected to the G1 Melbourne Cup hero Delta
Blues (Jpn) (Dance In the Dark {Jpn}), she has a yearling filly by
Estidhkaar (Ire) to come. Sales history: i32,000 Wlg >17 ARQDE;

JOHAN (GB) (c, 2, Zoffany {Ire}--Sandreamer {Ire} {SW-Ity &
GSP-Eng}, by Oasis Dream {GB}), the 10-11 favourite on the
basis of her debut fourth in a seven-furlong Newmarket maiden
July 27, quickly bagged the rail and the early advantage. Having
to work to shake off the smooth-travelling Rovaniemi (Ire) (Oasis
Dream {GB}) two furlongs from home, the homebred stayed on
strongly to pull away late and score by 3 1/2 lengths. The dam
was a smart performer for these owners, finishing runner-up in
the G3 Princess Margaret S. Her family features the G2 Rockfel
S. winner Sayedah (Ire) (Darshaan {GB}) and classy sprinter
Magical Memory (Ire) (Zebedee {GB}) who was successful in the
G2 Duke of York S., G3 Abernant S. and G3 Hackwood S. and
third in the G1 Haydock Sprint Cup. Sandreamer=s yearling colt

LEAFHOPPER (IRE) (f, 2, Dark Angel {Ire}--Layla Jamil {Ire}, by
Exceed and Excel {Aus}) broke alertly and was positioned under
cover behind the leaders in a close-up fourth after the initial
strides of this unveiling. Making smooth progress from halfway
to launch her challenge approaching the final furlong, the 9-2
second choice was ridden out on the climb to deny Thread of
Silver (GB) (Shamardal) by a head in a bobbing finish. AShe did it
very nicely in a very nice race,@ said winning trainer John
Gosden. AShe hadn=t been wound up for this and I hope she
progresses.@ The latest of five foals and a full-sister to MG1SP G2
Superlative S. hero Birchwood (Ire), the grey becomes the fourth
scorer from as many runners produced by a dual-winning half to
the dam of G3 Molecomb S. victor and G1 Middle Park S. third

MOOLHIM (FR) (c, 2, Siyouni {Fr}--Melbourne Shuffle, by Street
Cry {Ire}), who ran third in seven-furlong starts at Newmarket
June 22 and at Sandown last time July 5, was well away to stalk
the lead in second from flagfall here. Rousted along to challenge
off the home turn, the 3-1 second choice led entering the final
furlong and was driven out to prevail by a half-length from
Global Storm (Ire) (Night of Thunder {Ire}). Full-brother to a
yearling filly and half to a 2019 filly by Wootton Bassett (GB), the
bay is the first foal and winner produced by a winning half-sister

King Kamehameha Dead at 18 Cont. from p1
He won the G1 NHK Mile Cup by five lengths in early May and
three weeks later stepped up to a mile and a half to win the G1
Tokyo Yushun (Japanese Derby), opening Kaneko=s Derby double
that would be completed by Deep Impact the following season.
King Kamehameha ran just once more, winning the G2 Kobe
Shimbun Hai in September before retiring to stud.
Just as he had done on the track, King Kamehameha hit the
ground running in his second career, earning the title of
champion sire of 2-year-olds in his first two years with runners.
In 2010, when his first crop was four, he earned his first of two
consecutive champion sire titles. Were it not for Deep Impact
coming along with his first runners in 2010, King Kamehameha
would have taken nine straight sire championships; he was
second to his barnmate annually from 2012 through 2018, and
at the time of his death he sat fifth on the 2019 sires= table, with
his books having been limited to 100 mares or fewer from 2014
onwards.
King Kamehameha made his presence fully known with his
second crop, which yielded the fillies= Triple Crown winner
Apapane (Jpn), the G1 QEII Cup victor Rulership (Jpn), and G1
Japan Cup winner Rose Kingdom (Jpn). King Kamehameha=s
highest earner and heir apparent Lord Kanaloa (Jpn) came along
in his third crop, and he was named Japan=s champion
sprinter/miler and Horse of the Year off an incredible six Group
1 wins, including two editions of the G1 Longines Hong Kong
Sprint and the G1 Yasuda Kinen.
Rulership and Lord Kanaloa will ensure that King
Kamehameha=s legacy lives on. Rulership was champion first-
season sire in Japan in 2016 and his first-crop son Kiseki (Jpn)
won the 2017 G1 Kikuka Sho. Lord Kanaloa followed up as
champion first-season sire in 2017 and he has not yet slowed
down. Cont. p15

Alizee & Hugh Bowman | Bronwen Healy
Hugh Bowman & James Cummings | Bronwen Healy
ALIZEE ESCAPES A WINNER
by Bren O'Brien
It was a closer run thing than he would have hoped for but
James Cummings is confident Alizee (Sepoy) is on track for
further top-flight success this spring after her narrow victory in
the G2 Smithfield Missile S. at Rosehill. While Alizee faced just
four rivals, the danger was always going to be that the
short-priced favourite was not going to get the pace to suit her
over 1200m first-up and it evolved exactly that way.
Jockey Hugh Bowman was forced to make a searching run
around the field at the 600m and sweep past the early leader
Dissolute (New Approach {Ire}). She surged clear in the straight
but was left a sitting shot for 2017 Missile S. winner Invincible
Gem (I Am Invincible), who looked destined to sweep past her at
the 50m mark only for the Godolphin mare to kick back and win.
by 0.2l. Grand campaigner Le Romain (Hard Spun {USA}) kicked
off his campaign for third, while Dissolute's performance
exceeded expectations in finishing fourth.
Cummings said Alizee's performance could not be
underestimated, given the way the race had panned out.
"She's an outstanding horse and we are lucky enough to have
her in the barn. It's wonderful to see her get up and win a
weight-for-age Group 2 first-up," he said.
"She seemed to do it the hard way, he took off very early on
her, and if there was a way she was going to get beaten it was
going to be by an impatient jockey.
"It was good to see her hold on, and there was a good margin
back to third which would suggest it rated pretty well, even
though the second horse came at her late."
Bowman admitted it wasn't the prettiest ride, but that
circumstances left him little option but to get her into the race
early.
"The last thing I want to do was to be going right around the
field early in the race and hitting the front at the 400m, but I
was given no choice and I tried to help her through it as best I
could," he said. "She responded as I knew she would and she felt
the pinch late. But that was a great return and I think when she
gets in a race with more pressure, you will see the best of her
there."
Bowman has ridden the mare in five of her past seven starts,
including her win in the G1 Futurity S. earlier this campaign, so
has a good feel for where she is at in her preparation. He feels
she will come on greatly for the run in the Missile S. with
possible targets like The Everest on her radar later this campaign.
"You can tell by looking at her, she=s still got her winter coat.
I=d say there is plenty of improvement but in saying that, she'd
had two trials and she was forward enough to run a pretty good
race here today and that's exactly what she did," he said.

G2 Missile S. Cont.
Cummings spaced her runs early last campaign, going from the
Listed Christmas Classic, five weeks to her win in the G2
Expressway S. He intends on doing a similar thing this time
around as he looks to have her at her peak in the spring.
"I'm just really pleased with her that she's come back in best
form," he said. "She's built like she could be running out for the
SJC First 15 this afternoon at the No.1 oval rather than saddling
her up as the favourite in the Missile, but it is good to see her
win as favourite first-up now I can give her a few weeks
between runs, I think she is in for a big preparation."
It marked an eighth stakes success for Alizee, whose Group 1
victories have come in the Flight S., the Queen Of The Turf and
the Futurity S.
Pedigree NotesAlizee continues to add more black type what is already an
outstanding family. Her dam Essaouira (Exceed And Excel) has
already produced another Group 1 winner in Astern (Medaglia
a'Oro {USA}), while the now 3-year-old Tassort (Brazen Beau)
has been stakes placed and while injury-plagued, he has
considerable promise. Essaouira has a 2-year-old filly by
Medaglia d'Oro called Tangier and a yearling colt by the same
sire. A full sibling to Alizee is due this spring. The granddam is
the Group 1 winner La Baraka (Euclase), who produced the
multiple stakes winner Alizes (NZ) (Rory's Jester) and the
stakes-placed Flouze (Zabeel {NZ}).

BROWN BRIGADE BLOWSTHROUGH THE WINDY CITY
by Alan Carasso
It would appear that trainer Chad Brown finally has this thing
figured out.
The New York-based conditioner had managed to win two of
the three Grade I events comprising Arlington=s International
Festival of Racing--the Arlington Million, the Beverly D. S. and
the Secretariat S.--each of the last three years, falling short in
the Million in 2016 and in the Secretariat in 2017 and 2018. On
paper, he had the ammunition to complete the trifecta this year,
with the favorites in all three heats, two of those that figured
long odds-on. Still, the horses have to go out and do it on the
track, and so they did, as Bricks and Mortar (Giant=s Causeway)
added to victories from defending champion Sistercharlie (Fr)
(Myboycharlie {Ire}) in the Beverly D. and >TDN Rising Star= Valid
Point (Scat Daddy) in the Secretariat in America=s original seven-
figure horse race.
Brown entered Saturday=s Million tied with the likes of Charlie
Whittingham (Perrault, 1982; Estrapade, 1986; and Golden
Pheasant, 1990) and Ron McAnally (John Henry, 1981 & 1984;
and Tight Spot, 1991) as three-time winners of the race. In
sending out Robert Bruce (Chi) (Fast Company {Ire}) to win last
year, he surpassed the two Million scores registered by his
mentor, the late Bobby Frankel, who won twice in three years
(Chester House, 2000; and Beat Hollow {GB}, 2002). Cont p3

Away and racing in the Arlington Million | Coady
Arlington Million cont.
Bricks and Mortar has overcome a potentially career-ending
condition to become a leading candidate for U.S. Horse of the
Year, with prior scores in the GI Pegasus World Cup Turf, the
GI Old Forester Turf Classic and a latest defeat of Robert Bruce
in the GI Manhattan S., in which he covered 42 feet more than
the runner-up.
Made the 1-2 chalk to complete a Festival Pick Three that was
set to return $6.70 for the dollar, Bricks and Mortar was away
without incident and landed smack dab in centerfield as
GIII Arlington H. hero Bandua (The Factor) was ridden positively
by Adam Beschizza to lead in advance of the globetrotting
Hunting Horn (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}). Magic Wand (Ire) (Galileo
{Ire}), second to Bricks and Mortar in the Pegasus, found herself
in the box seat, while Robert Bruce tracked his stable
companion while hard held just in behind.
The pace was a steady one throughout--Bandua raced past the
six-furlong marker in :48.65 and entered the final half-mile after
three-quarters of a mile in 1:12.94--but Irad Ortiz, Jr. was
keeping his powder dry from six, apparently content to save
ground and willing to roll the dice when push came to shove.
Bandua continued to boss the Million field as the quarter pole
loomed, but they were warming up to the task behind him,
particularly the Wayne Lordan-ridden Magic Wand, who popped
off the fence and looked dangerous in upper stretch. But Ortiz
never felt a moment=s panic, as he eased Bricks and Mortar into
the three path about a furlong down, confronted Magic Wand
and Bandua with a quick turn of foot and edged clear.

Pedigree Notes:
Bricks and Mortar, who will enter stud at Shadai Stallion
Station in Japan at the conclusion of his racing days, is one of
three full black-type winners for his dam, a stakes winner and
four times group-placed in France ahead of a runner-up effort in
the GIII Bewitch S. in 2003. Beyond the Waves is a half-sister to
MSW & MGSP Seahawk Gold (At the Threshold) and to Miss
Excitement (Rajab), dam of GISW Bordonaro (Memo {Chi}) and
Miss Empire (Empire Maker), a MSW/GISP runner who was also
second against the boys in the 2012 GII Best Pal S. Barren to
Quality Road for 2018, Beyond the Waves produced a colt by
Runhappy this past April. She was bred to both Uncle Mo and
Runhappy thereafter.

MacKenzie continued, AThe New York-breds have gotten
better. Every breeder in New York has stepped their game up

Everybody wants to get in this sale because it is a great market

Chad Summers, who trained the New York-bred two-time
G1 Dubai Golden Shaheen winner Mind Your Biscuits (Posse),
was busy shopping at the Fasig sales grounds Sunday and agreed
with MacKenzie=s assessment.

years. It used to be, if you had a good individual, you were set.

Summers added, ANow, not only do you have to have a good
individual, but you have to have pedigree power behind it.
Because every year there are probably 300 or 400 New York-
breds who get rejected from this sale. This sale has gone from
being a New York-bred sale after the premier sale to being a
boutique, premier sale. That=s why the averages are what they
are and why you have to bring the right horses here.@
The New York-bred sale has traditionally begun the Saturday
following the select sale, leaving just one full day of showing.
With the auction beginning Sunday this year, the action at the
sales barns wasn=t quite as frenetic, but consignors were still
kept busy.
AWe showed 18 horses 775 times [Friday],@ MacKenzie said. AI
like the format that they moved it back one day. I think it takes a
little of the pressure off, so we might not have been as busy as
we have in years past, but I think that=s a good thing. It=s been
steady today, but not crazy and we=re seeing a lot of second and
third looks already, so probably most of the buyers have gotten
through most consignments.@
At last year=s New York-bred Sale, 172 yearlings grossed
$18,492,000 for an average of $107,512 and a median of
$76,000. A colt by Pioneerof the Nile became the auction=s
highest-priced graduate when selling for $600,000.
Following its Sunday session, the New York-bred sales
continues Monday with bidding beginning at noon.
Shelli Brings the Youth to New York Sale Chris Shelli, who returned to his home state to set up shop in
2003, has had a front row seat to the continuing evolution of the
New York breeding program and his Fort Christopher=s
Thoroughbreds will offer 16 yearlings at this year=s Fasig-Tipton
New York-Bred Sale. The group, which is peppered with a
plethora of first-crop sires, features a pair of colts by Frosted,
who was represented by the highest-priced yearling by a first-
crop sire this year when his daughter sold for $850,000 during
Tuesday=s second session of the Select Sale.
AThey are both very different, but both have depth of
pedigree,@ Shelli said of the two colts. AThey=ve been very
popular and we are happy with both of them.@
Fort Christopher=s first offering by Frosted is hip 369. Out of
Boston Lady (Boston Harbor), the yearling is a half-brother to
Grade I placed Normandy Invasion (Tapit), as well as to the dam
of graded winner Quip (Distorted Humor). Out of Maggie=s
Storm (Stormy Atlantic), hip 503 is a half-brother to Grade I
winner Comma to the Top (Bwana Charlie).

and is a half to multiple Grade I winner Melatonin (Kodiak
Kowboy), as well as a colt by sprint champion Runhappy (hip
393), who is a half to graded placed Scaramagna (Speightstown).
The consignment also includes yearlings by first-crop sires
Brody=s Cause (hip 395); Not This Time (hip 431); and Laoban
(hip 439).
AI think people are interested and excited to see the first-crop
sires and what they are producing,@ Shelli said. ASo that was part
of our design in bringing some of those horses here.@
The Fort Christopher consignment also includes a son of Palace
Malice (hip 420). The GI Belmont S. winner is represented by his
first crop of 2-year-olds this year and already has a stakes
winner to his credit.
Shelli expects to see continued growth in the New York sale.
AFor us the biggest thing about participating in the New York
program is the purses,@ he explained. AIt starts with the track
and the breeders= rewards. And with the breeders= rewards and
the purse structure currently in place, I think there is room for
more growth and more potential as the purses increase
consistently each year.@

SISTERCHARLIE MAKES HISTORY, CRUSHES
COURSE RECORD IN BEVERLY D. by Alan Carasso
Peter Brant=s reigning Eclipse Award-winning turf distaffer
Sistercharlie (Ire) (Myboycharlie {Ire}), sent off the prohibitive
2-5 chalk, made history Saturday at Arlington Park, becoming
the first in the 30-year history of the GI Beverly D. S. to record
multiple victories while easily establishing a new mark for
9 1/2 furlongs over a very firm turf course. It was the fifth
consecutive win in the race for trainer Chad Brown--one of
which came via DQ--and his sixth overall dating back to 2011
when Stacelita (Fr) (Monsun {Ger}) gave him his first.
With stablemate and last year=s third placegetter Thais (Fr)
(Rio de la Plata) signed on as her pacemaker, Sistercharlie had
only top European 3-year-old filly Fleeting (Ire) (Galileo {Ire})
behind as Thais opened up a sizable advantage, covering the
opening quarter-mile in :22.76 and the half in an unsustainable
:46.23. Thais carried that long lead into the far turn after six
panels in 1:09.66, but in the meantime, John Velazquez had
slipped Sistercharlie a bit of rein and they improved three wide
into third on the swing for home. Shaken up only hands and
heels as she quickly found top gear approaching the final
furlong, Sistercharlie swooshed past her spent rabbit soon after
and quickened clear. Awesometank (GB) (Intense Focus) raced
closest to the runaway leader for the bulk of the race and could
offer no resistance to Sistercharlie, but held for a valuble Grade I
placing. Competitionofideas (Speightstown), inside the eventual
winner, down the backstretch, followed her move into the
stretch, but could do no better than third. Fleeting, runner-up to
Star Catcher (GB) (Sea The Stars {Ire}) in the G2 Ribblesdale S.
and in the G1 Darley Irish Oaks, came with a late rally from the
tail to be fourth. Cont. p9

Beverly D. S. cont.
A Group 3 winner and second in the G1 Prix de Diane in 2017
while under the care of Henri-Alex Pantall, Sistercharlie was a
four-time Grade I winner in 2018, following her half-length
defeat of stablemate Fourstar Crook (Freud) in this event with a
tough neck decision over Wild Illusion (GB) (Dubawi {Ire}) in the
GI Breeders= Cup Filly & Mare Turf. Allowed to train on into a
5-year-old season, Sistercharlie prepped for this title defense
with a 1 3/4-length defeat of >TDN Rising Star= and fellow Brown
trainee Rushing Fall (More Than Ready) in the GI Diana S. at
Saratoga July 13.
Pedigree Notes:
One of four top-level winners--two each in the Northern and
Southern Hemisphere--and one of two Beverly D. winners (Euro
Charline {GB}) for her sire (by Danetime {Ire}), Sistercharlie is a
half-sister to Sottsass, winner for Peter Brant=s White Birch Farm
of this year=s G1 QIPCO Prix du Jockey Club (French Derby).
Starlet=s Sister, a full-sister to French Group 3 winner Leo=s
Starlet, is also a half-sister to SW & GI/G1SP Anabaa=s Creation
(Ire) (Anabaa), dam of SW Create a Dream (Oasis Dream {GB}).
Sistercharlie is a half-sister to the 2-year-old colt Radiant Child
(Ire) (Charm Spirit {Ire}), purchased by Brant for i400,000 out
of the 2018 Arqana August Yearling Sale, a yearling colt by
Fastnet Rock (Aus) that is cataloged as lot 21 at Arqana next
week and a filly foal by Dubawi (Ire).

Valid Point (center) | Coady
Secretariat S. cont.
The slight second betting selection to his stablemate Fog of
War (War Front), Valid Point was allowed to find his footing at
the back of the pack, racing outside of Van Beethoven, as Crafty
Daddy (Scat Daddy) and The Last Zip eyeballed each other up
front, but went only a moderate gallop. As a result, the field was
covered by no more than five lengths passing midway and
positions were largely unchanged, with Valid Point about three
deep on the course in the wake of GIII American Derby upsetter
Faraway Kitten (Kitten=s Joy). Content to slipstream that foe
around the turn, Castellano angled out Valid Point with a little
less than three-sixteenths of a mile to travel, hit the front with
100 yards to go and held firm. Van Beethoven rallied nicely to
complete the Scat Daddy exacta.
A one-length debut winner at Gulfstream Feb. 10, defeating
the well-regarded Bal Harbor (Orb), Valid Point resumed on the
eve of the GI Belmont S. June 7, sitting up on the pace before
covering his final quarter-mile in a sensational :21.96 to score by
3 1/2 widening lengths.
Pedigree Notes:
With the victory, Valid Point becomes the 29th Grade I/Group
1 winner, the 73rd GSW and 121st black-type winner for Scat
Daddy. A $140,000 purchase out of the 2017 Keeneland
September sale, Valid Point is one of five winners for as many to
race for his dam, a half-sister to GISW Santa Teresita (Lemon
Drop Kid) and to Italian highweight and French G1SP Sweet
Hearth (Touch Gold), dam of Japanese MGSP Lathyros (Jpn)
(Deep Impact {Jpn}). Goldbud is responsible for a yearling filly by
Orb that is set to go under the hammer as hip 1187 at next
month=s Keeneland September sale as well as a filly foal by
Connect. Goldbud was bred back to the latter stallion this term.

Fourstardave H. cont.
Caught late and having to play the bridesmaid to subsequent
GII Yellow Ribbon H. winner Beau Recall (Ire) (Sir Prancealot
{Ire}) in the May 4 GII Distaff Turf Mile at Churchill, the chestnut
closed from just off the pace to take her latest, Saratoga=s De La
Rose S. Aug. 3. Spun back off only a week=s rest, the filly settled
off the pace as longshot Gidu (Ire) (Frankel {GB}) opened a clear
lead through rapid splits of :22.66 and :44.61. As the pacesetter
began to falter, Got Stormy was finding her best stride, gliding to
the lead and pulling away to a three-length victory. She
completed the mile in 1:32 flat to become the first female
winner of the Fourstardave. Raging Bull (Dark Angel {Ire}) was
second and favored Uni (GB) (More Than Ready) was third. With
the course-record victory, Got Stormy became the first female
to win the Breeders= Cup Win and You=re In Fourstardave.
"Our filly broke well,@ said winning trainer Mark Casse. AOne of
the things that's made her better as she's gotten older is her
ability to relax and position her. That's what Ricardo [Santana,
Jr.] did. I feel bad for Tyler [Gaffalione]. It's Tyler's filly, but he
had committed earlier to March to the Arch [No. 1]. I didn't even
give him a choice. I said he had to ride March to the Arch as part
of the deal, and he was very gracious. Ricardo subbed in very
well for Tyler, and Tyler told him all about her, so that was
great.@
"It's all about Gary Barber,@ said Casse, explaining bringing the
filly back on one-week=s rest. AI told him why we shouldn't run
her. He said, 'That's good, but are you happy with how she is
training?' I said 'Honestly, I've never seen her train so good' and
he said 'We're running.' I wish I could say I was the smart one,
but it was Gary Barber. He's not afraid to step out of the box."

Green Light Go | Coglianese Photo
Saratoga Special S. cont.
Green Light Go, backed down to favoritism off a 3 1/4-length
debut score downstate July 4 that earned him a field=s best 84
Beyer Speed Figure, proved best of a promising group in
Saturday=s GII Saratoga Special S. as he sat the trip and drew off
emphatically. Racing without Lasix, the Stronach homebred was
away second last and moved up to sit in fifth early as a hot pace
developed in front of him. Saving all the ground tucked just
behind the speed through :21.71 and :44.16 splits, he swung out
heading for home and wore down pacesetter Tuggle en route to
running up the score. Second choice Noose rallied from far back
to take place honors from Tuggle.
"I put him in the race and he handled everything very
professionally,@ said winning pilot Junior Alvarado. AI was just a
pilot on top of him. I knew how much horse I had the whole
way, and I was very excited at the way he was handling the kick
back, and just rating behind horses very kindly. We knew how
good he was and I trusted him there.@
Green Light Go had been further flattered entering this event
when the runner-up from his unveiling, Another Miracle
(American Pharoah), came back to score here July 24. He
prepped for this with a pair of bullets at the Spa, including a
:46 1/5 (1/26) move over the main track Aug. 6.
"He ran well without having to be on the lead and that was
good to see,@ winning conditioner Jimmy Jerkens said. AThe track
has been so speed-favoring initially. I told Junior to take him out
of there and don't discourage him from running, but if someone
really wants the lead, that it'd be fine. It turned out he didn't
break quite as fast as his first start, but it worked out well. He
sat in the pocket just nice up against the bridle. He didn't care
about taking dirt which was really nice to see. He leaned a little
in the stretch; maybe a little green, but I guess he's still learning,
too. He had good purposeful works between races and has
handled it. He was also composed in the paddock, so we might
really have a nice one here." Cont. p17
TDN HEADLINE NEWS • PAGE 17 OF 24 • THETDN.COM SUNDAY • AUGUST 11, 2019
As for what could be next, Jerkens said: "We'll talk to Frank
[Stronach] and maybe we'll skip the [Sept. 2 GI Runhappy]
Hopeful. The [GI] Champagne [S. at Belmont Oct. 5] seems a
little more appealing than the Hopeful at the moment, but we'll
see."
Pedigree Notes:
Homebred Green Light Go is a product of Saratoga=s 2007
GI King=s Bishop S. winner Hard Spun, whose 73 career stakes
winners include champion Questing and other Grade I winners
like Wicked Strong, Hard Aces, and Hard Not to Like, as well as
last week=s $1-million Saratoga Derby Invitational S. victor A
Thread of Blue. Green Light Go=s dam, 2008 GI Prioress S.
runner-up Light Green, brought $350,000 at the 2011 Keeneland
November sale while carrying her second foal. Her most recent
reported offspring is a yearling colt by Creative Cause. Her
granddam was an unplaced full-sister to MGISW and sire Jade
Hunter. Green Light Go is the 10th black-type winner for
broodmare sire Pleasantly Perfect, whose other stakes
performers this year include GI Madison S. winner Spiced

Collusion Illusion seemed to come under a bit of a busy ride
heading for home, but leveled off late and fended off a bid from
tough-luck Wrecking Crew to go two-for-two on short rest in
Saturday=s GII Best Pal S. at Del Mar. Away well, the $300,000
OBSAPR (:10 flat) acquisition sat second last in the early going
with only Wrecking Crew--who totally missed the break--behind
him. The bay was scrubbed on by Joe Talamo to take closer
order into a :45.28 half, but the whip was out by the top of the
lane with favorite Fore Left digging in and Wrecking Crew
winding up down the center. Collusion Illusion continued to plug
away, however, and kicked on to prevail comfortably. Wrecking
Crew, an $875,000 Fasig-Tipton Gulfstream buy, did very well to
rally into the place spot.
AI had a beautiful trip. And the speed set it up right,@ Talamo
said. AI was impressed with my horse the way he gutted it out
down the lane. And I think the farther the better with him. Wait
>til he goes seven eighths or two turns. Then you=re going to see
the best of him.@
Collusion Illusion was a stalking winner here on debut July 21
going five panels.
AHe=s been nothing but a pro from Day One since we got him
after the sale,@ trainer Mark Glatt said. AHe was probably ready
earlier than the race he actually debuted in, but we decided to
wait for Del Mar and we=re extremely pleased with him. This
race came up a little bit quick--I usually like to give a horse more
time after his debut--but he=s such a classy horse and he never
missed a bite of grain. I thought about running him back in the
[Sept. 2 GI Del Mar] Futurity, but who knows what will happen
between now and September and he was ready to run now. I
wouldn=t rule out the Futurity. That might be a little too
aggressive with him, but we=ll keep it as an option.@ Cont. p18

Pedigree Notes:
Collusion Illusion is the only foal out of his unraced dam, who
died in 2018, and appears to be the first foal to race out of a
First Dude mare. Natalie Grace was a half to the talented Don
Dizney sprinters Bahamian Squall (Gone West) and Apriority
(Grand Slam). Collusion Illusion is the seventh graded winner for
Twirling Candy, who is having a banned year thanks to the
exploits of talented turf filly Concrete Rose and GI Santa Anita H.

Cafe Americano covered stacks of ground in Saturday=s GIII
Pucker Up S. at Arlington, but overcame that in-race adversity to
close out a truly memorable afternoon for trainer Chad Brown,
who swept the day=s four graded events. Owner Peter Brant was
winning his second of the day, having watched his champion
Sistercharlie (Ire) (Myboycharlie {Ire}) successfully defend her
title in the GI Beverly D. S. about two hour prior.
Drawn awkwardly outside in gate 11, Cafe Americano was
bumped at the break, but was nonetheless able to get over to
the rails to save ground passing under the wire the first time.

Pucker Up S. cont.
More than happy to bide her time from the back of the field as
80-1 Sky Flight (Sky Mesa) set a decent clip in advance of Hatoof
S. winner Indigo Gin (Lemon Drop Kid). Still quietly ridden by
Irad Ortiz, Jr. as they reached the end of the backstretch, CafJ
Americano was committed to an overland trip around the turn,
was spun seven or eight wide into the lane, took command with
a rush entering the final furlong and pulled clear. Princess
Carolina, also wide on the bend, just held for second over
Canadian raider Art of Almost.
Sporting a race record similar to that of the Secretariat winner,
the $625,000 Keeneland September yearling purchase
graduated going a mile over the Gulfstream turf Feb. 9, went
missing and returned with a Belmont allowance tally June 1. The
bay was most recently sixth to Concrete Rose (Twirling Candy) in
the GI Belmont Oaks Invitational S. in which she was bothered
and carried out on the backstretch, then raced mostly evenly
thereafter.
Pedigree Notes:
Medaglia d=Oro made it two stakes winners on the day when
Cafe Americano won the GIII Pucker Up S. and Goldwood won
Monmouth=s Incredible Revenge S. Of course, that=s nothing
new for the sire of 132 stakes winners who has been perennially
at or near the top of the leading sires list since his first crop in
2006 included Horse of the Year Rachel Alexandra. Cafe
Americano=s dam was herself the 2012 champion older mare
and sprinter in Canada and sold for $850,000 as a racing or
broodmare prospect at Fasig-Tipton Kentucky=s Winter Mixed
Sale in 2013. Cafe Americano, her second foal, brought
$625,000 at Keeneland September in 2017 and the mare has
since produced a 2017 filly by Empire Maker, a 2018 filly by
Curlin, and a 2019 colt by Gun Runner.
Yearlings by Cafe Americano=s damsire Indian Charlie were a
hot commodity at the recent Fasig-Tipton Saratoga Select
Yearling Sale and included the first session=s $1 million topper.
Indian Charlie=s daughters have produced 55 stakes winners,
including this year=s GI Metropolitan H. winner Mitole
(Eskendereya) and GII Oaklawn H. victor Quip (Distorted

DEL MAR DIARY: WITH A WEEK TO GO,
SEVERAL TUNE UP FOR PACIFIC CLASSIC With the marquee race of the meet, the $1-million GI TVG
Pacific Classic just seven days down the road, a number of
hopefuls for the 10-furlong feature got in their final serious
works at Del Mar Saturday morning.
Trainer John Sadler could send out as many as three runners in
the Pacific Classic, including Campaign (Curlin), who will actually
be cutting back in distance after annexing the GIII Cougar II H.
over 12 furlongs July 24. With jockey Rafael Bejarano in the
irons, Campaign was given 1:04 flat for five furlongs before
galloping out three-quarters of a mile in 1:15.80. Higher Power
(Medaglia d=Oro), a latest second as the favorite in the restricted
Wickerr H. at a mile on turf July 21, covered six furlongs in
1:13.40. Cont. p20

NORM WEISBORD PASSES AT 95
Norman Weisbord, father of former TDN publisher Barry
Weisbord and well-known to the racing industry through his role
in the Matchmaker Breeders Exchange, died Saturday morning
at his home in Tom's River, New Jersey. He was 95.
Norm and Gladys (Gottlieb) Weisbord were married for 70
years. Born in Philadelphia June 11, 1924, he was a World War II
veteran who served in the Pacific theater, and followed his own
father into the printing and stationery business after the war.
For the bulk of his professional career, he ran the Plymouth
Incorporated stationery business, which made and sold
stationery for retail sale. He expanded the business into school
supplies, and subsequently acquired the license to print school
supplies for the Peanuts products. Cont. p21

Norm Weisbord Passes Away cont.
AMy dad made stationery and school supplies running a
business my grandfather started,@ Barry Weisbord recalled. AI
spent some time working there. After working on the racetrack
one semester, Al Goldberg and I headed to Aqueduct to get jobs
and learn. My father gave his blessing to us and informed Mr.
Kelley we were `worth his attention.= Dad knew nothing about
the racetrack but ended up supporting us by visiting and coming
racing often, and even owning some horses with his friends. We
always felt his full support.@
Years later, after he sold his business, he and Gladys spent
time in Kentucky helping their son run Matchmaker. AWe were
young,@ said Barry Weisbord, Aand we needed some business
acumen. He and my mom were only too happy to come and
help.@
AHe got involved, and very happily,@ said Gladys. AHe loved
meeting all of the new people in a new industry. What he
brought was the ability to run a business, and run an office.@
The couple had lived most of their lives in Bala Cynwyd,
Pennsylvania, but when the American Championship Racing
Series started in 1991, they relocated to New Jersey, again so
that Norm could help out. In the early days of the TDN, he would
often be found standing in front of the row of fax machines early
in the morning making sure that people who hadn=t received a
fax the night before got their Aresend@ in the morning.
Weisbord became very involved in his Greenbriar Woodlands
community in Tom=s River, and was elected as president of the
men=s club and the camera club, and was very well known and
respected in the community for his fairness and
levelheadedness.
Weisbord is survived by his son, Barry, daughter Ellen, wife
Gladys and five grandchildren, including Brad Weisbord of BSW
Bloodstock and Elite Sales, and one great-grandchild. He is
predeceased by two days by his daughter Harriet, who passed
away Thursday.
The family will hold a graveside service Sunday at 2:30 p.m. at
Roosevelt Memorial Park, 2701 Old Lincoln Highway in Trevose,
PA.
"HOBBY" IS A FOUR-LETTER WORDby Len Green & John Wollenberg
The Thoroughbred industry is one of the ways to own a piece
of sports. For those of us who enjoy competition but cannot
afford the "billion-dollar price tag" associated with the New York
Yankees or Dallas Cowboys, "the sport of kings" provides an
opportunity to participate in sports at the highest levels.
Due to a multiple number of variables, it is considered to be a
challenging and arduous business. Even the IRS considers this
activity as an "uphill battle" and, therefore, regulates it under a
unique set of rules and codes.
One example is the way the IRS extends the time horizon for
profitability. The unique rule variations for our industry provide
a more lenient landscape to prove that a) your racing and/or
breeding operations are "for profit" and b) that you are taking
the required steps to provide yourself with the opportunity to
accomplish a profit motive.
There are two safe-harbor rules for determining if you have a
for-profit business.
Normal Rule. An activity is presumed to be a for-profit
business if it produces positive taxable income (revenues in
excess of deductions) for at least three out of every five years.
Losses from the other years can be deducted because they are
considered to be business losses as opposed to hobby losses.
Special Rule. Specifically for the horse industry includes that
horse racing, breeding, training or showing activities are
presumed to be for-profit business if they produce positive
taxable income in two out of every seven years.
Taxpayers who can plan ahead to qualify for these safe-harbor
rules earn the right to deduct their losses against their earned
income from outside sources during unprofitable years.

Proven Strategies cont.
Intent To Make Profit
Even if you cannot qualify for one of the aforementioned
safe-harbor rules, you may still be able to treat the activity as a
for-profit business and rightfully deduct the losses. Basically, you
must demonstrate an honest intent to make a profit.
Factors that can prove (or disprove) such intent include:
C Conducting the activity in a business-like manner by
keeping good records and searching for profit-making
strategies. Having a business plan in place would
reinforce the profit-making objective.
C Spending enough time at your craft to prove that the
activity is a business, and not a hobby. This includes the
"500-hour test," which represents the minimum
amount of time devoted to the business during the
course of one calendar year. Some items which qualify
toward the test and have historically passed IRS scrutiny
include:
1. Discussions with trainers, jockeys and other industry-related
professionals (i.e. phone calls, texts, emails and
meetings).
2. Attendance at races and other industry-related activities.
3. Attendance at horse sales.
4. Licensing and regulatory requirements.
5. Reading trade publications.
6. All other work done in connection with the business (this is
a "catch-all" item that basically equates to any other
items not previously listed).
In order to best provide evidence of the above, we
recommend that you annually provide your tax preparer with
your horse-related electronic calendars. This should include
attended races, meetings, sales, etc.
C The expectation of asset appreciation (this is why the
IRS will almost never claim that owning rental real
estate is a hobby even when tax losses are incurred for
many years).
C Providing the IRS with proof of expertise and/or hiring a
third-party service (i.e. attorney, accountant,
bookkeeper, etc.) with years of experience working
within the equine field. Evidence of such will add
tremendous weight in circumstances such as an audit.
C Testament of success in other ventures will aid in
indicating business acumen.
C The history and magnitude of income and losses from
the activity. Occasional large profits hold more weight
than frequent small profits. Losses caused by unusual
events or bad luck are more justifiable than ongoing
losses that only a hobbyist would be willing to accept.
Cont. p23
TDN HEADLINE NEWS • PAGE 23 OF 24 • THETDN.COM SUNDAY • AUGUST 11, 2019
C Your financial status--the higher your net worth, the
more likely you can afford to absorb ongoing losses
(which may indicate a hobby).
C Elements of personal pleasure--attending stakes races is
usually more fun than digging post holes for fences.
However, the IRS is far more likely to claim the former is
a hobby if losses start showing up on your tax returns.
Bottom Line
As an active member in the Thoroughbred industry, you are
well aware of how difficult it is to be profitable. Thankfully the
IRS also understands the difficulty of normal profitability
standards.
When you invest in the stock market, you rarely have to worry
if General Mills had a bout with colic the night before a big
event. However, when investing in delicate athletes, like
Thoroughbreds, you are constantly worried about a plethora of
factors. This can include their overall health, the track
conditions, if they break from the gate alertly, if your yearling
vetted out before a sale, if your mare carried her pregnancy
full-term and countless other variables completely out of your
control. Nonetheless, what is in your control, are following some
of the above-mentioned guidelines to prove your intention for
profit.
It is in your best interest to attend sales, meet with yourtrainer regularly, talk sale strategy with your consignor and mostimportantly surround yourself with experts in the industry whohave successful racing and breeding operations. We hope you enjoyed this month's article and, as always,please feel free to call The Green Group and speak to one of ourequine tax experts.

MUNDAYE CALL (Into Mischief) was acquired by Larry Best’s

Harlem Heights (Bernardini) will attempt to follow in the

Grade I victress Pine Island (Arch). Trained by Hall of Famer Shug

A highly touted group of juvenile fillies will line up for the
fourth event on Sunday’s Del Mar card. The impeccably bred
AMERICA’S SURPRISE (American Pharoah) was snatched up by
Phoenix Thoroughbreds for just $325,000 at last year’s
Keeneland September Sale. She boasts the same trainer/rider
connections of Jerry Hollendorfer and Mike Smith as her half-
sister Songbird (Medaglia d’Oro), a dual Eclipse Award champion
and nine-time Grade I winner. Songbird was undefeated as a
juvenile, capturing three consecutive races before capping her
2-year-old season with a tour-de-force victory in the 2015
GI Breeders Cup Juvenile Fillies.
Inspiressa (The Big Beast) turned heads after a :20 4/5
quarter-mile breeze at this year’s OBS March sale and became
the most expensive filly at the sale after fetching $850,000 from
West Point Thoroughbreds and Anthony B. Sandbrook. The
imposing filly has turned in several sharp workouts for trainer
John Sadler over this track, including a bullet :35 1/5 (1/27)
three-eighths out of the gate July 18. Her dam Lucky Trip has
produced an outstanding seven winners from seven runners to
race.
Breaking from the outside of Inspiressa is the Richard
Mandella-trained Superstition (Ghostzapper). An $850,000
yearling purchase at the Keeneland September Sale, the dark
bay is a full-sister to Grade III victress Gloryzapper and a half to
graded stakes performer Banree (Macho Uno). She blitzed
three-eighths out of the gate in :36 1/5 (1/16) July 29 at this
oval. TJCIS PPs

FLATTER COLT STORMS TO RISING STAR
DEBUT Gozilla (Flatter), backed down to 3-5 favoritism off of plenty of
hype, skipped clear down the lane to score a front-running
debut victory and earn the 'TDN Rising Star' tag in Saturday’s
seventh race at Saratoga. The chestnut colt hopped slightly at
the break, but recovered quickly to take the lead and cut out
fractions of :22.46 and :45.55, sailing clear in the final furlong to
score by 4 1/2 lengths and complete the six furlongs in 1:09.59.
Ox Bridge (Oxbow) was second and Sprawl (City Zip) was third.
Gozilla, who breezed five furlongs in a bullet :59 flat at Saratoga
July 28, worked July 21 in company with stablemate Tumbling
Sky (Competitive Edge), winner of the day’s fifth race. Gozilla,
who RNA’d for $170,000 as a KEESEP yearling, was a $150,000
Fasig-Tipton October yearling purchase and RNA'd again for
$395,000 at this year's OBS April sale after breezing a flashy :10
flat. His dam Atlantic Dream (Stormy Atlantic) is a full-sister to
multiple graded stakes winner Icy Atlantic.

Wonder Where S. cont.
She had previously notched two wins over the lawn at Fair
Grounds and Keeneland. Last out, she faced the boys in
Canada’s Queen’s Plate and finished fifth.
Back on the grass here and content to leave a few-lengths gap
between herself and the frontrunners through fractions of
:26.49 and :50.40, Desert Ride got in touch with the top flight
before the final turn. She took the turn in the three path before
hooking up with Preferred Guest to her outside. The two battled
down the stretch with Desert Ride inching clear in the last
strides.
“I was very, very impressed,” said trainer Neil Howard. “Steve
[Bahen] rode her beautifully, as he always does. I was a little
concerned for a second--there was a little bit of a fight down the
stretch--because most of those horses were pretty fresh when
they turned in the lane, given the fractions and everything. So
she had to dig in, and she did, and I couldn’t be happier for the
Sam-Son group. They’re just wonderful; it couldn’t be more well
deserved.”
Dam Fun in the Desert has 2-year-old filly named Saturday Sun
(Sky Mesa) and a yearling colt by Candy Ride (Arg). She did not
produce a foal in 2019, but has been bred to Bernardini for next
term. She is out of Canadian champion Eye of the Sphynx (Smart

Incredible Revenge S. cont.
The lovely Goldwood made it three consecutive stakes
victories at Monmouth Park with this half-length triumph in the
Incredible Revenge S. Last seen taking the Unbridled Elaine S.
June 8 and the Politely S. May 18, her only other start this year
came when third in Gulfstream’s Captiva Island S. Mar. 9.
Previously trained by Alan Goldberg, Goldwood was also third
last year in Parx’s Turf Amazon S., but got her best career Beyer
Speed Figures (90, 91) in her last two starts.
Goldwood went for the lead straight out of the gate and
initially had company on the outside from Tillie’s Lily (Distorted
Humor), with the two battling down the backstretch. Goldwood
suddenly pulled clear on the corner, kept her advantage, and
held on to register the half-length victory.
Although she may be the only stakes winner to date for her
dam, who had colts in 2018 and 2019 by Hard Spun and Honor
Code, respectively, Goldwood hails from a long line of top
performers. Granddam Maplejinsky (Nijinsky II) was a dual
Grade I winner, sold as a broodmare for $2.7 million, and
produced champion Sky Beauty (Blushing Groom {Fr}), as well as
the dams of Grade I winners Tale of Ekati (Tale of the Cat) and
Pleasant Home (Seeking the Gold). Goldwood’s third dam is
champion Gold Beauty (Mr. Prospector), dam of champion
Dayjur (Danzig). Goldwood’s dam has been bred to Violence for
next term. Click for the Equibase.com chart or VIDEO,

On the day that Arlington shines brightest, Dabo was ready to
do his part. Breaking from the extreme outside, Dabo stayed
quite wide until the chute joined the main track. He dropped
back to last in the 10-horse field, but began moving up steadily
with a still-wide, eye-catching sweep around the field on the
turn. Charging down the lane, Dabo left the other sophomores
in his wake, giving the impression he could have won by more
than the 2 1/4 lengths he prevailed by at the finish.
Dabo has become something of an Arlington specialist, having
now won all four of his starts over the all-weather surface,
including the Springfield S. last out July 27. He also won an
allowance here May 3 and broke his maiden here last August
when trained by Bradlee Rainwater. Interestingly, although he
has also tried the all-weather surfaces at Woodbine and
Turfway, as well as turf and dirt at other tracks, all of Dabo’s
career wins have come at Arlington. He did finish third in
Woodbine’s GIII Marine S. and Turfway’s John Battaglia
Memorial S. earlier this year.
The last reported foal for his dam, Dabo hails from the
extended family of MGSW The Vid (World Appeal). Click for the

SAINT MOON (f, 3, The Factor--Mo's Teresa, by Momentum)
handily defeated a field of maidens in her first attempt on the
grass June 16 at Monmouth. She subsequently yielded late to
Missmizz (Mizzen Mast) to settle for second when tackling
black-type company in the July 14 Blue Sparkler S. The 5-2
choice was bumped breaking out of the barrier, but quickly
struck the front, zipping through a :21.91 opening quarter.
Facing pressure from Paper Clip (Cairo Prince) at the top of the
stretch, she turned back the challenge and surged home to best
that rival by 2 1/4 lengths in a sharp time over the firm turf.

earning a 83 Beyer Speed Figure. Sent off at 2-1 odds in this

mid-pack. Following steady splits of :23.20 and :46.89, rider
Mike Smith angled the bay four-wide around the bend and she

with a quarter mile to travel and powered across the wire a

DECORATED INVADER (c, 2, Declaration of War--Gamely Girl,
by Arch) rallied from far back for second here July 13, and was
flattered a week ago when fourth-place finisher Our Country
(Constitution) came back to romp in a similar spot. Off as the 5-4
chalk to go one better, the bay showed a bit more speed early to
tuck into a midpack spot under stout restraint. Keen to do a bit
more down the backside, he tugged his way up in between rivals
and was perched in third by the time they hit the second bend.
Taking over in upper stretch, he proved superior to his
competition from there as he cruised under the wire
3 1/4 lengths clear while wrapped up. Newcomer Summer to
Remember (Summer Front) completed the exacta. The winner is
half to Jubliant Girl (Henrythenavigator), SW, $107,067 and a

BILLY BATTS (r, 2, City Zip--Down to Hearth, by Giant's
Causeway) faded to sixth sprinting over the Churchill sod when
unveiled May 24, and went two better returning June 21.
Extended to a mile at Ellis Park July 6, the dark bay sat second
the whole race and couldn’t quite seal the deal as the 9-5 pick.
Pounded down to 90 cents on the dollar Saturday, the
Rockingham Ranch colorbearer was a touch headstrong past the
stands the first time and settled in the second flight three deep
in the wake of a :22.70 opening quarter. Content to bide his
time as the pace slowed, Billy Batts improved under his own
power and took command after a brief tussle with Fantasy
Game (Boisterous) after three quarters in 1:13.61. He edged
away from there to win by 1 3/4 lengths over that foe. The first
foal from his unraced dam, he is followed by Flintshire (GB) filly
Flint Heart and her full-brother this term. Down to Hearth, a
half-sister to the dam of MSW & GISP Enchanting Lady (Tale of

The buzz all week leading up to thishighly anticipated maiden special weight was about the BobBaffert-trained Garth, who worked four consecutive bullets overthis surface and had the homebred pedigree to back it up. Stormthe Court’s sire, meanwhile, stood for $3,500 the year he wasconceived and he brought just $5,000 as a Fasig-Tipton Kentuckyshort yearling and $60,000 as an OBS April 2-year-old. Storm theCourt broke the better of the two, showing speed out of thegate before settling into a stalking rail trip, while Garth was astep slow out of the gate and sat behind Storm the Court whilealso on the rail. When a seam opened up for Garth outsideStorm the Court, he moved up to take the advantage, but Stormthe Court wouldn’t be denied, fighting back on the inside beforeedging clear. He paid $27.20 for the win. Storm the Court is thelast reported foal for his dam, a three-time winner. LifetimeRecord: 1-1-0-0, $36,600.

through a first quarter in :22.42. In search of the lead heading
into the far turn, the bay moved up in between horses to make
it a line of three approaching the head of the stretch, but was
forced to steady at the eighth pole as Long Term Thinking

the results of the top two were reversed and Patagonia awarded
