ELATE OUTCLASSES ‘EM IN DEL ‘CAP
She’s still got some work to do if she’s going to catch up withthe accomplishments of former fellow Bill Mott trainee and two-time Delaware H. heroine Royal Delta (Empire Maker), butClaiborne Farm and Adele Dilschneider’s ‘TDN Rising Star’ Elate(Medaglia d’Oro) kicked off her 4-year-old season with her ownemphatic score at the Wilmington oval Saturday. Off at even-money in this first running of Delaware’s signature race since itlost Grade I status, last year’s GI Alabama S. and GI BeldameInvitational S. romper was making her first afternoonappearance since finishing fourth as the favorite in the GI Breeders’ Cup Distaff at Del Mar in November. Void of early speed behind a tempo that was very slow for theopening half-mile, the dark bay was clicked up by rider Jose Ortizwith about five furlongs to race and was in a share of the lead asthey entered the turn. Held together as long as possible, Elatewas allowed to open up at the top of the lane and proved notfor catching from there as she cruised away by 3 1/4 lengths.Sneaky Betty (Mineshaft) plugged away for second at betterthan 85-1 ahead of Teresa Z (Smart Strike) in third. “The horse outside of me [Nikki My Darling {Creative Cause}], Ithought she had speed, but she stumbled out of there so I didn’tknow what to do--whether to go or take back,” said Ortiz. “Butthen I saw her rushing up there so I kind of took back. I hadJohnny [Velazquez on Unbridled Mo {Uncle Mo}], the otherhorse to beat, in front of me; and Mario [Gutierrez on Mopotism{Uncle Mo}] in front of me, so I was looking at them. On thebackside, I thought they were going really slow, so I decided tomake a move.” Cont. p3
‘RISING STAR’ RELISHES TWO TURNS ‘TDN Rising Star’ Once On Whiskey (Bodemeister) was let goat odds of 7-1 trying a route of ground for the first time inSaturday’s GIII Los Alamitos Derby in Orange County, but beliedhis inexperience at two turns to peg back Draft Pick (Candy Ride{Arg}) in the shadow of the wire. Exiting an apparentlyexcuse-free third in a seven-furlong Churchill allowance testMay 5, the $150,000 Keeneland September purchase raced atthe back of the Los Al Derby field alongside Blended Citizen(Proud Citizen) as favored stablemate Ax Man(Misremembered) set the pace from Draft Pick in the middleand a three-wide King Cause (Creative Cause). Ax Man wasnever given a breather and Draft Pick put him to the sword withthree-eighths of a mile to travel, having won that battle. OnceOn Whiskey picked up the slack for his fading stablemate, andsoon emerged as the fresh challenge entering the final furlong.Draft Pick kept plugging away as he was looking for the line, butFlavien Prat shoved Once On Whiskey home narrowly in front.

Ortiz continued, “She’s a really big filly, so I wanted her to findher stride on the backside before we hit the far turn. So, that’swhat I did, and when I asked her to go she responded reallywell. All the credit to Bill Mott to have her ready and a great jobby the whole staff.” A head-turning debut winner at Aqueduct in November of herjuvenile season, Elate would fail to return to the winner’s circlein any of her next four outings, and as the favorite each time.The light seemed to come on when she aired by 5 1/2 lengths inthis venue’s Light Hearted S. last June, and she went straight toSaratoga’s GI Coaching Club American Oaks from there, comingup a head short of eventual champion Abel Tasman (QualityRoad) in a roughly run race. She relished this 10-furlong distancewhen easily defeating subsequent GI Cotillion S. winner It TizWell (Arch) and this year’s GI La Troienne S. heroine Salty(Quality Road) in the Alabama in August, and crushed anadmittedly soft group of older foes in the Beldame at BelmontSept. 10.

Delaware H. cont.
Turning in just an even effort at the Breeders’ Cup, she’d been
prepping for this up at Saratoga’s Oklahoma Training Track with
a tab that included a stamina-building seven-furlong drill in
1:26 2/5 two works back June 30.
Pedigree Notes:
Elate is the second Medaglia d’Oro-sired 4-year-old filly in as
many years to take the Delaware H.--champion Songbird
grabbed last year’s renewal in what would be her final career
victory. She hails from an extremely productive Claiborne family
riddled with noteworthy individuals, including Grade I winners
Eastern Echo and Sea Hero and standout sires and full brothers
Congrats and Flatter. Her unraced 2-year-old full-brother Haunt
(Ghostzapper) breezed three panels in :37.73 (12/27) at the
Oklahoma Saturday morning. She has a yearling half-brother by
Blame, but her speedy, stakes-winning dam failed to produce a
live foal after being bred back to Medaglia d’Oro last year.

"[Once On Whiskey] has been working well and we've beenwanting to stretch him out, so we decided to put him in here,''said Baffert. "In the stretch I could tell Ax Man was starting toget tired... I saw a horse coming and I said, ‘That's me,' so thatwas good. He needed the whole stretch to get there.” The Hall of Famer continued, "I'm happy for the whole[Pegram, Watson and Weitman] gang.

Axelrod broke his maiden for a $50,000 tag at Del Mar last
August, but he had steadily improved and climbed the class
ladder from there. That ascent culminated in a 12-1 upset in this
lucrative event under the Indiana Grand lights Saturday night.
Fourth off his graduation score in the Oak Tree Juvenile at
Pleasanton in September, Axelrod his the bench after a
starter/optional claimer at Santa Anita the following month. He
resurfaced down the hill there Apr. 6, finishing a very close third
before checking in fourth--again not far from a victory--under
identical conditions May 17. Cont. p6

Indiana Derby cont.
The Florida-bred returned to dirt and a route in the GIII
Affirmed S. June 10, and outran his 23-1 odds to be second
behind Saturday’s GIII Los Alamitos Derby runner-up Draft Pick.
Squeezed out at the start and back to third last while saving all
the ground early, Axelrod sat in a joint last down the backside as
Trigger Warning showed the way. The pacesetter threatened to
run away from them as he opened up through six furlongs in
1:11.52, but Axelrod made a big move to slingshot past foes
heading for home. He sliced through a seam inside of favored
King Zachary (Curlin) at the head of the stretch, and kicked on
resolutely to make it just in time.
“I thought he broke sharp. It looked like there was plenty of
pace up in front of him,” said winning trainer Mike McCarthy,
who had stayed back home in California to attend his 7-year-old
daughter’s swim meet. “I saw the opening quarter in :23 2/5.
Florent [Geroux] seemed to be fairly content with his position.
Turning up the backside, he was able to save some ground.
Coming to the three-eighths pole, it didn’t look like anyone was
really running away from him. He was able to maintain his
position. Obviously, when Florent wheeled him outside around
the turn and switched leads and kind of started picking off
horses at the quarter pole, I thought he was liable to go ahead
and get a check. And then coming to the eighth pole, it looked to
me like he was able to find that extra gear and get his nose
down at the wire--and I couldn’t be happier. I’m very happy for
the horse, very happy for my whole team and very thankful that
Florent rode him with some confidence, and that made all the
difference for us.”
King Zachary, a seemingly breakout winner of the GIII Matt
Winn S. last out, seemed to be run off his feet early and couldn’t
muster enough late.
“He broke good,” said rider Robby Albarado. “I shoved on him
to get him some position there. It seemed like it was conducive
to speed all day. I didn’t think they went overly quick, but I
caught myself kind of chasing a little bit up the backside just
trying to keep him in the race. He felt great physically. By all
means, I didn’t lose any confidence. I do believe he’s a top
horse. I’m going to stick with that and hope they continue on the
plan to go after the big fish with him, because he’s a big horse. I
think when you see him go a mile and an eighth, a mile and a
quarter, you’ll see him start to spread himself out a little bit.”
Pedigree Notes:
Axelrod was the third U.S. graded winner Saturday by
Medaglia d’Oro or a son of Medaglia d’Oro, following a win by
Elate (Medaglia d’Oro) in the GII Delaware H. earlier in the day
and a convincing tally by Talk Veuve to Me (Violence) in the GIII
Indiana Oaks one race earlier. Figarella’s Queen (Medaglia
d’Oro) was second in the Oaks. Axelrod has a Kantharos half-
brother who was a $65,000 OBS Winter Mixed short yearling
earlier this year and a foal half-sister by Overanalyze.

Golden Brown had only been on the grass once before--when
second in the Dan Horn S. for New Jersey-breds last out June 17-
-but that didn’t stop him from kicking away and pulling off the
double-digit upset here. A third-out graduate sprinting in the
Parx slop Feb. 24, he was fourth first off the bench back in
state-bred company May 5 and wheeled back in three weeks to
get a narrow win in a similar restricted spot. He was 16-1 in the
Dan Horn, and sported just two very slow breezes in the interim.
Tugging his way up to sit second in the two path into the first
turn, Golden Brown dropped out a bit down the backside and
was fifth in between foes as they spun for home. Shifted outside
for clear sailing, he leveled off powerfully once his feet were
completely under him and kicked away decisively.
It was a trouble-filled stretch run for some of the Kent
also-rans–namely favored Untamed Domain (Animal Kingdom),
who bounced off of Hot Springs and into the rail. In a somewhat
surprising decision, the stewards ruled that pacesetting
Archaggelos (Temple City) had caused the chain reaction, and he
was taken down and put behind Untamed Domain.
“His last race–even though it was in Jersey-bredcompany–came against an older horse and Jersey-bredchampion [in GSW Irish Strait {English Channel}],” noted winningconditioner Pat McBurney when asked of the decision to try thistougher spot with Golden Brown. “We figured if we couldrepeat that race, we might get a piece of it. It worked outtoday.”
Pedigree Notes: Golden Brown is the eighth graded or group winner for latestallion Offlee Wild. His hard-knocking dam was a course recordsetter sprinting on the Meadowlands turf, and is a half to FrenchGSW Arcadia’s Angle (Aldebaran).

Second in two tough spots in her last two outings, ‘TDN Rising
Star’ Talk Veuve to Me made the grade Saturday night as an
overwhelming favorite. Away without incident, the dark bay
chased in second under a firm hold through splits of :23.17 and
:46.66. She took over with total ease midway on the bend, and
rider Julien Leparoux hadn’t moved a muscle as they
straightened. Figarella’s Queen looked for a brief second like she
might make the favorite work for it, but Talk Veuve to Me hit
another gear when called upon and she cruised away to score as
she pleased while wrapped up late.
“I’ve been watching her races--she’s got that tactical speed,”
said Julien Leparoux, who was partnering with Talk Veuve to Me
for the first time. “[Molecules] wanted to be on the lead, but
[Talk Veuve to Me] relaxed beautifully off of [that one]. She’s
push button. On the second turn, I just let her go on her own. I
didn’t really ask her. She went to the lead and relaxed again and
went on in the straight again. She’s a very nice filly.”
Second behind Harbor Lights (Shackleford) in her Ellis unveiling
some 11 months ago, Talk Veuve to Me resurfaced at Fair
Grounds Mar. 25 to romp by 11 1/4 lengths ahead of two next-
out graduates including now two-for-three stablemate
Abounding Joy (Quality Road). Team Valor International bought
in off of that race, and the investment looked a promising one
when the she completed the exacta in the GII Eight Belles S.
May 4. She was second last time in the GI Acorn S. June 9 behind
GI Kentucky Oaks heroine Monomoy Girl (Tapizar), and was
testing two turns for the first time here.
“She showed what I was expecting her to show,” said trainerand co-owner Brisset. “It was maybe a little quicker than what Iwas thinking on paper. But she took the lead pretty easy. Youcould see that she was looking around a lot, just went to thewire cruising.” He continued, “She’s very unlucky being born in one of thebest years--how many good fillies do we have this year,between Monomoy Girl, Midnight Bisou (Midnight Lute) andRed Ruby (Tiznow) and I’m sure I’ve left out some. It’s a very,very strong year for 3-year-old fillies. I don’t know whereeverybody wants to go. She may have to face them and turn thetable on some to be in the top three. But we are what we are.”
Pedigree Notes: Talk Veuve to Me is the seventh stakes winner and secondgraded winner for her second-crop sire (by Medaglia d’Oro). Herdam, a full-sister to SW and MGSP Winning Point, sold for$40,000 at the 2014 Keeneland November sale with the winnerin utero. She sold a year later to Korea Bloodstock for just $1500in foal to Shackleford.
GUNNEVERA GEARING UP FOR RETURN MGSW Gunnevera (Dialed In) fired a five-furlong bullet in 1:00 flat (1/16) at Gulfstream Park West Saturday morning as heprepares for a first start since exiting an eighth-place finish inthe Mar. 31 GI Dubai World Cup with a hoof injury. “The horseworked very well,” trainer Antonio Sano said. “He went :23, :36,:48 1/5, and five furlongs in a minute flat.” The near $3-millionearner had been freshened in Ocala for two months beforereturning to Sano’s stable. Saturday’s spin was his fourth sincegetting back into serious training. Gunnevera is expected to usea race at Gulfstream some time next month as a springboard tothe Sept. 1 GI Woodward S. at Saratoga. A graded winner at twoand three, Gunnevera was second in last year’s GI Travers S. andthird in the lucrative GI Pegasus World Cup Invitational S. thisJanuary. “I’ve never had a horse like him before in my life,” saidSano. “I don’t have the words to say how great Gunnevera hasbeen for me and my family. I am very proud of what he hasaccomplished. To run in the Kentucky Derby, the Breeders’ Cup,the Pegasus and then Dubai, it’s been amazing.”

NEW INDUCTEES TO "HOOFPRINTS WALK OF
FAME" The Saratoga 150 Committee announced the two newestinductees to the Hoofprints Walk of Fame at Saratoga RaceCourse: champion Checkmate (Glen Athol--Full Cry, by Vandal)and 1979 GI Travers S. winner General Assembly (Secretariat--Exclusive Dancer, by Native Dancer). Horses are considered forthe Hoofprints Walk of Fame based on their accomplishments inmajor stakes races at Saratoga Race Course throughout its 150-year history. The selection committee considers additionalhorses for the Walk of Fame on an annual basis. The selectioncommittee consists of National Museum of Racing LibrarianAllan Carter, racing historian and author Ed Bowen, and turfcolumnist Michael Veitch. "We are thrilled to welcome these champion Thoroughbredsto the outstanding class of horses who make up the HoofprintsWalk of Fame at Saratoga Race Course," said Saratoga 150Honorary Chair John Hendrickson, who conceptualized theproject in conjunction with the Saratoga 150 committee. "Theseequine athletes competed at their highest level and havebecome part of the rich history of Saratoga Race Course. It's aprivilege to recognize the real stars of this sport at theHoofprints Walk of Fame where they are permanentlyenshrined." Modeled after the Hollywood Walk of Fame, the HoofprintsWalk of Fame was installed outside the clubhouse gates toSaratoga Race Course in 2013 in conjunction with thesesquicentennial celebration of the first organized race meetingin Saratoga Springs. Owned by James T. Williams, Checkmate was trained by JamesRowe and ridden by Edward Feakes and Isaac Murphy. Amultiple stakes winner in 1880, he won seven of his eight racesat Saratoga--including four stakes--the following season. A homebred for Bertram and Diana Firestone, GeneralAssembly was trained by LeRoy Jolley and ridden by DarrelMcHargue and Jacinto Vasquez. His memorable wins include theGI Hopeful S. and GII Saratoga Special S. in 1978; and in 1979, hetook the GII Gotham S. and GII Vosburgh S. before taking theTravers in course record time, a record that stood until 2016. Healso finished runner up to Spectacular Bid in the 1979 GIKentucky Derby. The additions of Checkmate and GeneralAssembly bring the total number of inductees to 40. Among thenotable Thoroughbreds inducted to the Walk of Fame includeAffirmed, Man O' War, Native Dancer and Secretariat.

Assuming his customary position at the head of affairs early,
Voodoo Song recorded his seventh lifetime tally in Saturday’s
Forbidden Apple S. Easily assuming the lead after fellow
speedster Blind Ambition (Tapit) stumbled significantly at the
start, Voodoo Song carved out honest splits as the Todd Pletcher
runner tried to overcome his unfortunate beginning. In the
meantime, favored GSW Disco Partner (Disco Rico) was
comfortably back in third, about three lengths behind the
frontrunners. Voodoo Song shook clear of the tiring Blind
Ambition turning for home while Disco Partner loomed but
failed to close on the outside in the stretch as the Chad Brown
pair of Projected and Offering Plan closed steadily from the far
outside. In the late stages, Voodoo Song kept up the tempo and
had enough left in reserve to fend off Projected and Offering
Plan. Disco Partner was fifth and Blind Ambition checked home
sixth.
“The plan was to let him do what he wanted to do,” said
winning rider Manny Franco. “He went to the lead. I tried to
slow him down a little bit and he did, it worked out. The last
time, he went a little [fast], I figured this time if I went around
:46 [seconds], that was my goal. He is game all the time. He
always keeps trying. He gave me all he had.”
Added winning trainer Linda Rice, “He was coming into this
race really well and I wanted to run him. On paper there were
three speeds in the race and you would think it was going to set
up for a closer like Disco Partner, but fortunately it worked out.
He was able to get on the lead and settle. As a 4-year-old he's
really matured. Last year, running from the dirt and switching to
turf he was really rank and running at two-turns has really
benefitted him. Going forward, we'll certainly take the [GI]
Fourstardave [Aug. 11] into consideration. Also the West Point
[S. Aug. 24]."
Mystic Chant, a half-sister to stakes winner and graded-placed
Mystic Soul (Bahri), is represented by a pair of colts, juvenile
Worth a Shot (English Channel) and a yearling by Japan. The
stakes-winning mare foaled a filly by Flatter early this season.

Pinch Hit, dropped in for a $40,000 tag early in her 3-year-old
season, concluded 2017 with a quartet of victories, including a
narrow score in the seven-furlong Dogwood S. at Churchill
Downs last September. Fourth in her seasonal reappearance in
Churchill’s GIII Winning Colors S. at six furlongs May 26, she was
a narrowly beaten second going a mile in an $80,000 optional
claimer at the Louisville oval June 23. Solidly-backed here, she
was a well-placed third behind Awestruck through a pedestrian
opening quarter in :25.12. Pinch Hit, who kept the leader in her
cross hairs as she doled out a half in :49.26, was asked for more
in the stretch, battled with her game foe all the way home,
inching clear late to record a narrow win.

Barry K. Schwartz homebred La Fuerza built on a 7 3/4-lengthdebut success over 5 1/2 furlongs of the Belmont main trackJune 22 with another facile victory in Saturday's state-bredrestricted Rockville Center S. in Elmont. Favored at 45 cents onthe dollar to take this next step, La Fuerza was off far betterthan he was in his bow and took up a spot from fourth behind atrio of front-runners. Idling a bit on the turn, he felt a crack ofManny Franco's whip nearing the stretch, switched out andaround first-time starter Red Zinger (Will Take Charge) at thetop of the lane and kicked it in from the eighth pole to score bya handy four lengths. Bustin Mach Four (Bustin Stones)outfinished Red Zinger for second. The 46th black-type winnerfor his Claiborne-based sire, La Fuerza is out of a half-sister toSW & GISP Pinch Pie (Victory Gallop) and hails from the family ofGI Breeders' Cup Classic hero Volponi (Cryptoclearance). LaFuerza is kin to a colt foal of this year by Mizzen Mast. "I thought he broke well,” said Byron Hughes, assistant totrainer Todd Pletcher. “There was a little more speed in the racethan we expected. They kind of went ahead of him and he wasdown there on the inside on the rail. Manny did a good jobbeing patient and when the outside opened up, he veered himthere and he kicked on in the stretch. It was a good race for him.Coming into today, we were hoping he would break a littlebetter. He broke a little slow and got pinched his first start and itturned out to be okay. In similar fashion, here he ended upgetting behind horses but handled taking the dirt well and wasable to get up." Cont. p3

Majestic Dunhill graduated at third asking on the Saratoga

Therapist (Freud) in the Laurel Futurity S. Sept. 16. Fading to
10th in the Juvenile Turf Sprint at Del Mar Nov. 4, he returned to
winning ways in a course-and-distance allowance June 23.
Favored to earn his black-type badge here, the dark bay raced in
a ground-saving fourth early and kicked it into another gear
rounding the far turn to sit on the leader’s heels. He split horses
in the lane and charged clear to score. “I was concerned coming
back after just three weeks,” said trainer George Weaver. “He
ran a pretty hard race off the bench.”

Prince of Hempt quietly went unbeaten in 2017, with two
scores over an extended mile at Parx before cutting back to
seven-eighths to post a mild 5-1 upset in Laurel’s City of Light S.
in November. He found some trouble when a comebacking
fourth two-turning in Parx allowance company June 30, but had
his supporters in his return to stakes competition. Trapped out
four deep into the first turn, Prince of Hempt settled in the three
path on the backstretch run and made a bold bid to lead with a
quarter mile to travel. Monongahela came with a rush from the
tail of the field and shot right past Prince of Hempt at the three-
sixteenths, but he could not sustain the run and Prince of Hempt
fought back gamely underneath him for the victory. A half-
brother to a yearling Revolutionary filly, the winner is also kin to

TERM OF ART (c, 4, Tiznow--Miles of Style, by Storm Cat),
winner of the GIII Cecil B. DeMille S. at Del Mar in 2016, finished
third in a pair of Santa Anita stakes--the GII San Felipe S. and GIII
Affirmed S.--last season before concluding an otherwise modest
campaign with a lackluster ninth in the GI Pennsylvania Derby at
Parx in September. Off for the remainder of the season, the
$220,000 KEESEP yearling was given a 5-2 chance for his 2018
debut. Settled in a stalking position behind modest early splits,
the powerful bay took aim three wide approaching the quarter
pole, drove to the front midstretch and drew clear en route to a
1 3/4-length score over favored South Beach (Tapit). Term of
Art’s dam Miles of Style, who is out of dual Grade I winning
Tomisue’s Delight (A.P. Indy), is a half-sister to Grade I scorer
Mr. Sidney (Storm Cat). The 11-year-old mare, who has a 3-year-
old colt by Kitten’s Joy and yearling colt by Empire Maker, was
bred to Union Rags this term. This represents the family of HOTY
& Ch. Older Horse Mineshaft (A.P. Indy). Lifetime Record: GSW,

BOLD SCRIPT (f, 2, Speightstown--Original Script {SW,
$363,628}, by Malibu Moon), installed the 3-1 second chance,
was a forwardly-placed fourth as 7-5 choice Noble Kitten (Noble
Mission) posted an opening quarter in :23.23. As Noble Kitten
began her retreat turning for home, Bold Script was in tight
between rivals and desperately looking for racing room through
the lane. Finally finding a seam, the Chiefswood runner bulled
her way through in deep stretch got up just in time to defeat
Lady Azalea (Mineshaft) by a neck. No Orbinary (Orb) rounded
out the tirfecta. The favorite faded to sixth. Original Script, a full-
sister to stakes winner and graded placed Final Copy, is also
responsible for a yearling filly by Speightstown. She produced a
filly by Curlin this term. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $33,288. Click

decentl late headway to finish third in a siwftly run 6 1/2-furlong
maiden June 9 and took some action from 8-1 into 9-2 for this
stretch out to the one-turn mile. Pinched back at the break and
giving her rivals a decent head start, And So It Goes settled in
the latter third of the field early on, looked to be held up for a
run on the turn and was forced to shift widest into the lane.
Gaining with every stride into the final eighth of a mile, she
needed every last yard to peg back Ambitious Moon (Malibu

GEORGIAN DANCER (f, 2, Souper Speedy--Rivermaid Dancing,

opening quarter in :22.33. Ranging up two wide at the top of the
stretch, the bay swpet past the leader in the final furlong and
kicked clear to win by 4 1/4 lengths and become the second

GINS AND TINS (g, 2, Scat Daddy--High Walden {SW & GSP-US,

yearling, was slightly disappointing in two runs at Belmont to
date, finishing a debut fourth May 25 before dropping one spot
June 17. Even money against decidedly easier rivals here, Gins
and Tins pressed through at the fence to lead hooking up with
the course proper, galloped them along at a good pace, kicked
further in front off the final corner and proved four lengths too
strong. Fellow Belmont shipper Strike Play (Haynesfield) was
second best. Gins and Tins is out of a half-sister to champion and

clear for a 2 1/2-length score. Rain on the Dune (GB) (Frankel

scampered away from his rivals to score by a convincing 5 1/2

U S Navy Flag is targeting Australia’s The Everest after
winning the July Cup | racingfotos.com
HE’S A VERY GOOD HORSE TO COME
BACK FROM A TOUGH CAMPAIGN LIKE
THAT. THE PLAN WAS TO REST HIM
AFTER THIS AND TRAIN HIM FOR
THE EVERESTAidan O’Brien on U S Navy Flag
FLAG TAKES FLIGHTIN JULY CUP
Aidan O’Brien’s relatively quiet week at Newmarket suddenly
burst into life where it really mattered on Saturday as U S Navy
Flag (War Front) made all to capture the festival’s feature
G1 Darley July Cup. Positively ridden as usual by Ryan Moore,
the 8-1 shot who had completed the rare Middle Park-Dewhurst
double on the Rowley Mile here in the autumn but who was
saying goodbye to a mile after his ninth in the G1 St James’s
Palace S. at the Royal meeting, was given most to think about by
Brando (GB) (Pivotal {GB}) inside the final furlong. Drawing on
the inherent valour he possesses and stamina that had seen him
finish second in the G1 Irish 2000 Guineas, he pulled away to
win by 1 3/4 lengths as stablemate Fleet Review (War Front)
grabbed third, a further 3/4 of a length away. The 5-2 favourite
Blue Point (Ire) (Shamardal) looked a dubious stayer in seventh.
“What threw us was he was able to win a Dewhurst making
the running and nearly got the trip in an Irish Guineas, so we
had to go a mile [in the St James’s Palace] at Ascot,” Aidan
O’Brien explained. “Ryan looked after him there, but he’d had
tough races and we were afraid that they had left a mark. He’s a
very good horse to come back from a tough campaign like that
as a 3-year-old. The plan was to rest him after this and train him
for The Everest. In all fairness to him, he deserves a rest.”
U S Navy Flag is in the mould of the stable’s previous 3-year-
old winners of this contest, Stravinsky and Mozart (Ire) who
were also coming back from a mile when victorious in 1999 and
2001. Like the latter, he was caught late on in the Irish Guineas
when asked to make all over The Curragh’s demanding mile
May 25 but connections had opted to go again for conclusive
proof in the St James’s Palace on June 19. They got that as he
faded out of the race, having set a formidable tempo, and in
many ways this was just a belated return to his optimum a year
on from his first demonstration of his inherent ability when
second in the
G2 July S. at this meeting. Also fifth when stumbling on the bend
in a dramatic renewal of the G1 Poule d’Essai des Poulains at
ParisLongchamp on May 13, the bay is now firmly set to
navigate the world’s top sprints.
Aidan O’Brien, who was also close-up fifth with the patiently-
ridden Sioux Nation (Scat Daddy), was full of praise for the
winner’s temperament as well as class. “It was unbelievable for
him to do that, as to nearly make all at The Curragh you have to
nearly be a nine- or ten-furlong horse, but he has a very strong
mind and it was obviously courage that got him to where he was
in the Irish Guineas,” he said. “He was a little bit on the bridle at
Ascot, so we had to give him a chance here and he got into a
lovely rhythm here.” Cont. p2

U S Navy Flag and groom David Hickey after
the July Cup | racingfotos.com
Flag Takes Flight In July Cup cont. from p1
He is out of a Galileo mare and with any horse that has that
Galileo in them, they flatten down on the ground when you go
after them--their stride doesn’t shorten and they keep going. He
has loads of speed and is able to drag horses. Physically he’s not
very high, but he has length and has a well-balanced blend of
War Front and Galileo in his pedigree. He had a gruelling season
at two and even ran on the dirt then, but came back smiling
after dancing every dance. For a horse to take that much
hardship and come back is rare, but he obviously has an
unbelievable constitution.”
With regards to his tilt at the Oct. 13 A$13-million Randwick
bonanza, he added, “The weight-for-age is probably a bit wrong
in both hemispheres and this horse will probably be a bit wrong
when he goes down there, so that’s something to look at in the
future. Australia is a young, progressive racing country and the
racing is getting very strong and competitive down there, so
we’re really looking forward to it.”
Sioux Nation, who had the winner behind in last year’s
G1 Phoenix S., is staying closer to home after his encouraging
effort. “He’s very fast and is probably a five-furlong horse, but as
he’s a big horse who has taken time to get fit the plan was to let
him run here and then go back [to five] for the [G1] Nunthorpe
[at York on Aug. 24]. We don’t think we’ll see the best of him
until he goes back.”
Blue Point was unable to become the first to complete the
King’s Stand S.-July Cup double since Never So Bold (Ire) in 1985
and trainer Charlie Appleby is looking at returning to five
furlongs now. “William said he over-raced and was keen enough
for the first two [furlongs],” he commented. “We were obviously
disappointed, but we’ll drop him to five and go for the
Nunthorpe and [the Sept. 16 G1] Flying Five at The Curragh and
then head back to Ascot for the [Oct. 20 G1] British Champions
Sprint. As William [Buick] just said, for whatever reason this
horse turns up at [Royal] Ascot--that’s his gig and he seems to
like it there.”
Brando was placing in this for the second consecutive year and
seemed to be disadvantaged by having to race towards the
stand’s rail with all the action away from him. Tracking the
again-disappointing Australian challenger Redkirk Warrior (GB)
(Notnowcato {GB}) only took him so far and jockey Tom Eaves
was rueing his fortune. “He’s run a blinder and we’re very happy
with him, but as it turns out we were probably drawn on the
wrong side,” he said. “I thought I had the winner going to the
furlong pole, but all credit to him as he pulled out more.”
Pedigree Notes... U S Navy Flag’s dam Misty For Me (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) was a
leading performer for this stable, taking the G1 Moyglare Stud S.
and G1 Prix Marcel Boussac at two and the G1 Irish 1000
Guineas and G1 Pretty Polly S. the following season. Her first
foal Cover Song, a daughter of Fastnet Rock (Aus), took the GIII
Autumn Miss S. before her attentions were turned towards War
Front. Her first produce by that sire was in her mould. Roly Poly
proved as tough, genuine and consistent a performer as she had
been and her unflinching travails last season earned her
victories in the G1 Sun Chariot S. and G1 Falmouth S. before U S
Navy Flag came along to trump her. The unraced second dam
Butterfly Cove produced another Marcel Boussac heroine in
Misty For Me’s sister Ballydoyle (Ire), who was also third in the
G1 1000 Guineas, and another full-sibling of merit in the SW and
MGSP Twirl (Ire). Butterfly Cove is a full-sister to the G3 1000
Guineas Trial S. winner Kamarinskaya and a half to the
G1 Phoenix S. and G1 Prix Morny-winning champion juvenile
Fasliyev from the family of the MGISW sires Desert Wine and

Kew Gardens and Ryan Moore | Racing Post
MIDSUMMER BLOOM Aidan O’Brien had spoken at Newmarket on Saturday
afternoon of his stable’s regime slipping into place and a few
hours after U S Navy Flag (War Front) conquered there it was
the re-energised Kew Gardens (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) who delivered
a Group 1 double to Ballydoyle in
ParisLongchamp’s Juddmonte
Grand Prix de Paris. In some
ways, this colt is the epitome of
how dramatic a turnaround his
trainer can generate in one of his
charges as he was at best
lethargic and at worst dismal on
his first three starts this term
which included a 27-length
eclipse in the G1 Epsom Derby. At
last there was the revival of the
colt who had destroyed Dee Ex
Bee (GB) (Farhh {GB}) in
Newmarket’s Listed Zetland S. in
October as he dominated the 14-furlong G2 Queen’s Vase at
Royal Ascot June 20 and hold-up tactics were employed once
again here as he was served up another relentless gallop by
stablemate Nelson (Ire) (Frankel {GB}).
Ryan Moore covered the move of Neufbosc (Fr)
(Mastercraftsman {Ire}) passing the two-furlong pole and under
driving the 7-5 favourite began to edge ahead of that leading
domestic hope and on to an ultimately authoritative
1 1/4-length success. The G1 Epsom Derby runner-up Dee Ex
Bee was eventually three
lengths away in third, after
another workmanlike effort
which may be down to the
summer ground.
Breaking his maiden on soft
ground at Killarney in August,
Kew Gardens was second to
Nelson in the G3 Golden Fleece
S. on Irish Champions Day at
Leopardstown and fourth to
Saxon Warrior (Jpn) (Deep
Impact {Jpn}) in the
G2 Beresford S. at Naas in
September prior to his tour de
force in the Zetland over 10
furlongs at Newmarket the next month. His comeback effort
when third in the nine-furlong Listed Feilden S. back at the latter
venue on Apr. 17 suggested he was some way off a peak and
TDN EUROPE/INTERNATIONAL • PAGE 5 OF 18 • THETDN.COM SUNDAY • 15 JULY 2018
while he was initially sluggish and eventually well beaten into
second by Knight To Behold (Ire) (Sea the Stars {Ire}) in the
Listed Lingfield Derby Trial over an extended 11 furlongs on May
12, it transpired after that he had lost a shoe there and he
received a favourable mention from Michael Tabor in pre-Derby
discussions. His run in the blue riband was characterised by
aggressive early tactics and it may be a combination of that and
his dislike of undulating tracks that saw him trail in ninth, but
when this stable’s runners go out of TV shot in that race it
almost means nothing as he proved in the Queen’s Vase just
days later.
With Dee Ex Bee lifeless on ground that was probably too
quick and Nelson being sacrificed for the winner, this renewal
may not be worth taking too seriously but Kew Gardens is a colt
on the upgrade now and his trainer is looking to put a cat among
the older pigeons in the G1 King George VI & Queen Elizabeth S.
in a fortnight. “We came here to see if he could go on to the
King George,” O’Brien explained. “That was the idea. Royal
Ascot first, then back over a mile and a half in the Grand Prix de
Paris and then the King George according to this result. Ryan
took his time and Kew Gardens is a beautiful colt who moves
very well and needs good ground. That’s why Ascot could be for
him. He’s easy to ride, he’s good in his head and he stayed 14
furlongs at Royal Ascot.”
Neufbosc’s trainer Pia Brandt is thinking of longer-term targets
for the runner-up and said, “I am very proud of my colt. He gave
everything today--I thought he could pull it off, but I can’t say I
am disappointed because he tried his best. He will now be
aimed at the [Sept. 16 G2] Prix Niel on his way to the [Oct. 7 G1]
Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe.”
Pedigree Notes... Kew Gardens has now joined his dam in the Group 1-winning
club, with Chelsea Rose (Ire) (Desert King {Ire}) having proven
more precocious in gaining her top-level success in the G1
Moyglare Stud S. From the family of the G2 Prix Eugene Adam
winner and GI San Juan Capistrano Invitational H. runner-up
River Warden (Riverman) and the GIII Hoist the Flag S. scorer
Sweettuc (Spectacular Bid), her other two black-type performers
include the speedy G3 Prix de Ris-Orangis winner and G1 Prix
Maurice de Gheest third Thawaany (Ire) (Tamayuz {GB}). She
also has a 2-year-old full-brother and yearling full-sister to the
winner to come. Click for the free Equineline.com catalogue-

ENCORE, MARMELO! One of those older horses in love with the French way of
things, Marmelo (GB) (Duke of Marmalade {Ire}) notched up
another win in a gallic race of prestige when surviving an inquiry
after Saturday’s G2 Prix Maurice de Nieuil at ParisLongchamp.
Again paired with Christophe Soumillon as he had been when
successful in last year’s G3 Prix de Barbeville and G2 Prix
Kergorlay, the 9-10 favourite tracked the pace in second
throughout before committing with 300 metres to race.
Jinking across the path of compatriot Algometer (GB)
(Archipenko) soon after and causing the interference which
prompted the officials’ investigation, the bay stayed on to score
by 3/4 of a length and had sufficient dominion at the line to be
allowed to keep it. The winner is yet another with G1
Melbourne Cup pretensions, having already been there when
ninth in November. “He obviously loves racing in France, but he
is still entire so we must try and upgrade his profile in England,”
the winning syndicate’s Edward Goodwin said. “The Melbourne
Cup definitely remains his target. Last year he ran twice in
Australia and we won’t make the same mistake again, so he’ll
just run straight there. He could run again beforehand, maybe in
the [G2 Prix] Kergorlay [at Deauville on Aug. 19 or the Ebor [H.
at York on Aug. 25].”
Marmelo, whose Prix de Barbeville win came in track record
time at Chantilly last April before finishing second to Talismanic
(GB) (Medaglia d’Oro) in this race staged at Saint-Cloud 12
months ago, had been committed to a Melbourne Cup challenge
after his defeat of the subsequent G2 Doncaster Cup hero
Desert Skyline (Ire) (Tamayuz {GB}) in Deauville’s Kergorlay. On
the face of it, his effort when dead-heating for sixth in the 12-
furlong G1 Caulfield Cup looked an ideal warm-up for the “race
that stops a nation”, but it proved counter-productive as he ran
flat as the 6-1 joint-favourite in the main event. Second to
Vazirabad (Fr) (Manduro {Ger}) in this track’s G2 Prix Vicomtesse
Vigier on May 27 before beating the progressive Juddmonte
stayer Weekender (GB) (Frankel {GB}) in York’s Listed Grand Cup
over nearly 14 furlongs last time on June 16, Marmelo will again
figure as one of the main protagonists for the Australian
showcase after proving his wellbeing in this race in which last
year’s G1 Prix Royal-Oak winner Ice Breeze (GB) (Nayef) was all
but pulled up.

DUBAWI II Backed with conviction for Saturday’s G2 bet365 Superlative S.
at Newmarket, Godolphin’s ‘TDN Rising Star’ Quorto (Ire)
(Dubawi {Ire}) gave his supporters few concerns as he emerged
clear best in this important juvenile staging post. Showing dash
to win a six-furlong novice stakes here on debut on June 22, the
son of the dual Oaks-placed Volume (GB) (Mount Nelson {GB})
was always going to be stronger over this extra furlong and was
duly sent off the 5-4 favourite with punters uninterested in
anything else. Racing enthusiastically in the hands of William
Buick as Cape of Good Hope (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) led at a
steadily-increasing tempo, the handsome bay initially followed
Blown By Wind (GB) (Invincible Spirit {Ire}) away from that
full-brother to Highland Reel (Ire) but his rider was forced to
angle him over as his lead began to flounder. Phoenix
Thoroughbred Limited’s Neverland Rock (GB) (No Nay Never)
loomed to Ballydoyle’s representative against the stand’s rail
with just over a furlong remaining, but Quorto was on both their
cases and quickly had their measure. Despite not looking
entirely comfortable on the fast ground, he stayed on to register
a 3 3/4-length success from Cape of Good Hope and provide a
passable impression of his sire who took off for the first time in
this race in 2004. “He really impressed me there and has done
everything right,” Buick said. “He’s very natural and it was lovely
the way he did that today. He was green, but travelled so well
and ideally I’d have liked to have something to follow for a bit
longer. He has plenty of speed, so he doesn’t need to go any
further for now and he’ll make into a lovely 3-year-old as well.”
Trainer Charlie Appleby has another strong team of juveniles
and can dream of the 2019 Classics now. “We were confident
coming here today that he had come forward and that the step
up in trip was going to suit,” he said. “He has shown some gears
there. William got off and said he has a great racing mind. He
travels very sweetly in your hands and he picked up well when
he hit the rising ground. He is an exciting horse, for sure. Being
by Dubawi one would hope we will see a bit more improvement,
TDN EUROPE/INTERNATIONAL • PAGE 8 OF 18 • THETDN.COM SUNDAY • 15 JULY 2018

with a bit of luck. I would say the [G1 Goffs Vincent O’Brien]
National S. [at The Curragh on Sept. 16] is the more likely target.
Seven looks to be his trip, but hopefully further down the line a
mile will be for him.” Aidan O’Brien said of Cape of Good Hope,
“He ran a lovely race and we couldn’t be happier. We are going
gently with him and you can see that with every run he is getting
a bit better. I think he is still a baby, so he is progressing.
Physically he is strong, but mentally he is still a baby. I don’t
think a mile will be a problem when that time comes, but we’ve
plenty of time for that and we don’t need to go there yet.”
Pedigree Notes... Quorto, who was the first juvenile by his sire to win in 2018, is
the only foal so far out of the Luca Cumani-trained Volume who
captured the Listed Swettenham Stud Fillies Trial S. before filling
third spot in the G1 English and Irish Oaks in 2014. Stamina for
beyond a mile is assured, with her second dam being Victoire
Bleue (GB) (Legend of France), heroine of the 2 1/2-mile G1 Prix
du Cadran who later produced the G2 Prix Hubert de Chaudenay
and G3 Prix du Lys winner and G1 St Leger runner-up Vertical

BEATING THE TREND Out of luck on his three previous visits to Ascot when
contesting straight-track events, King Power Racing’s Beat the
Bank (GB) (Paco Boy {Ire}) enjoyed better fortunes on the round
course on Saturday when swooping late to win the G2 Fred
Cowley MBE Memorial Summer Mile. Compromised by traffic
problems when under two-lengths sixth in the Royal meeting’s
G1 Queen Anne S. on June 19, the bay who had also been 10th
in both the G3 Jersey S. and G1 Queen Elizabeth II S. here last
term was settled behind the leading duo early. Benefiting from
the strong pace, the 11-4 favourite took time to pick up in the
straight and was momentarily denied a clear run again as
Eminent (Ire) (Frankel {GB}) checked out to his left. When out of
trouble, he was able to grind down the David O’Meara pair Lord
Glitters (Fr) (Whipper) and Suedois (Fr) (Le Havre {Ire}) in the
final yards and prevail by a neck and a nose. “I’m a huge fan of
his--he’s not a very big horse and doesn’t work like an
impressive one, but he has a huge heart and is special,” jockey
Oisin Murphy said.
Finally dropping his Ascot voodoo was important with so many
feature mile contests staged in Berkshire, but Andrew Balding
was always convinced that there had been extenuating
circumstances for his flops here. In between last year’s Royal
meeting and Champions Day, he had won the Listed Sir Henry
Cecil S., G3 Thoroughbred S. and G2 Joel S. by a cumulative
margin of 11 lengths and had gone to post for the QEII as short
as 4-1.

DYLAN’S CUP DREAM IS STILL ALIVE Much water has flowed under the bridge since Dylan Mouth
(Ire) (Dylan Thomas {Ire}) took the 2014 G1 Derby Italiano, but
Earle Mack’s veteran proved on Saturday that he is still able to
pull a rabbit out of the hat as he battled to success in York’s
G3 John Smith’s Silver Cup. Whether this and other races in this
staying category actually warrant their new upgrades by the
European Pattern Committee is a matter for debate, but it at
least provided a feast for the eyes with the first three fighting in
a line throughout the dying yards. In the end, it was the 8-1 shot
who gave marginally more than last year’s winner Dal Harraild
(GB) (Champs Elysees {GB}) to score by a neck, with Scotland
(Ger) (Monsun {Ger}) 3/4 of a length away in third. “He’s been a
great horse for the family,” trainer Marco Botti said. “He won
Group 1 races in Italy for my brother [Stefano] before he joined
us. It was the owner’s dream last year to run him in the
Melbourne Cup. He needed to win today to go up enough in the
handicap and it will now be strongly considered.”
Dylan Mouth, whose exploits in his native Italy included
successes in the G1 Gran Premio di Milano, G1 Premio Roma
and G1 Gran Premio del Jockey Club as well as the Derby, had
been 25-1 when taking Haydock’s Old Newton Cup H. with real
authority last July. With a tendency to be an in-and-out
performer, the bay came here on the back of a second in the 12-
furlong Listed Fred Archer S. at Newmarket on June 30 but
punters were reluctant to put full faith in him. Brought from rear
with perfect timing by Dane O’Neill to gather in Dal Harraild
inside the last furlong, he was in determined mood this time as
the race to Flemington gathers pace.
Pedigree Notes... The first foal out of the G3 Premio Verziere winner
Cottonmouth (Ire) (Noverre), Dylan Mouth is a half-brother to
the listed-placed Per Un Dixir (Ire) (Holy Roman Emperor {Ire})
and Henry Mouth (Ire) (Henrythenavigator), who like him was
successful in the G2 Gran Premio d’Italia but only second in the
G2 Derby Italiano. The dam’s 2-year-old filly by Lope de Vega
(Ire) named Poetic Legacy (Ire) was bought by Ballyhane Stud for
€70,000 at Goffs November, while her yearling son of Kodiac
(GB) fetched €72,000 when purchased by Azienda Agricola
Mariano Spa at the most recent edition of that auction. Click for

LOUIS IN WORLD CUP WARM-UP Sunday’s action is low-key in Europe and Maisons-Laffitte
starts early with France in the World Cup Final in the afternoon.
Centre stage is occupied by the G2 Prix Eugene Adam, or Grand
Prix de Maisons-Laffitte, where the G1 Prix du Jockey Club third
Louis D’Or (Ire) (Intello {Ger}) bids to become the fourth group
winner to emerge from that 10 1/2-furlong Chantilly Classic on
June 3. Interestingly, Khalid Abdullah has shown a preference
for this race which he has won five times and it is worth noting
that the Juddmonte silks are carried this time by the June 21 G3
Hampton Court S. runner-up Crossed Baton (GB) (Dansili {GB}).
In the G3 Prix de Ris-Orangis, France’s sprinting stalwarts
Finsbury Square (Ire) (Siyouni {Fr}) and Signs of Blessing (Ire)
(Invincible Spirit {Ire}) race under penalties against some
unexposed rivals including Godolphin’s G1 Prix Jacques le
Marois runner-up Inns of Court (Ire) (Invincible Spirit {Ire}).
“We don’t see the step down to six furlongs as being a
problem--he is a horse who likes a strong pace, so we hope that
this will play to his strengths,” the operation’s Lisa-Jane Graffard
said of the latter. “This is a completely different task, but he ran
well over the straight mile at Deauville last year and this is a
straight six furlongs. He is in good form and we hope that he can
show the promise of his races last year.”
WITH ED HARPER With a pair of black-type juveniles to his credit already this
season, Showcasing (GB) sits third on the European 2-year-old
sire list, and is very much building on the foundation laid by
champion sprinter Quiet Reflection (GB) from his second crop.
That standout mare was conceived at just £4,500 at Whitsbury
Manor Stud, and in the six years since Showcasing’s fee has
climbed to £35,000. Cont. p11

TDN Q&A cont.
Fresh off wins by Showcasing’s Soldier’s Call (GB) in Royal
Ascot’s Listed Windsor Castle S. and Advertise (GB) just last
week in the G2 Arqana July S., TDN’s Alayna Cullen caught up
with Whitsbury Manor’s Ed Harper to talk about Showcasing,
and we have an excerpt from her video interview here.
AC: So far, 2018 has been an exciting year for Showcasing. Can
you tell us a little bit about his successes on the track so far?
EH: 2018 was always going to be the year that people were
really putting the spotlight on him, as it's the first year the
2-year-olds have been bred from a slightly increased fee. The
2-year-olds this year were bred on a £15,000 fee. He's already
had a couple of stakes winners; he had the Royal Ascot winner
for Archie Watson and now he's had the July S. winner. He's had
a lot of very promising 2-year-olds run. He's had seven individual
2-year-old winners already this year, but a number of seconds
first time out that I've been equally excited about. I couldn't be
happier.
AC: How has Showcasing's 2018 breeding season gone?
EH: It's gone very well. He covered 140 mares and got 136 in
foal, which we are very proud of. He's always been very fertile,
but the fertility actually gets easier as their fees increase, with
the quality of mares coming to him. We're always going to limit
him to the number of mares he's covered because our clients do
like the fact that we never go mad on numbers. And we've
always done that across the board with our stallions.
AC: Can you tell us about any particular mares that have gone
to him this year?
EH: He's had a host of group winners this year. I've never been
one to sound too smug over the phone when you book a big one
in, because I think they could come from all sorts of places. But
he has covered quite a few Pivotal mares this year, which is
encouraging with Advertise being out a Pivotal mare. He's also
beginning to have a nice record with Dansili mares, I think. He
got sent quite a few of them. So, it was a nice book across the
board, and we sent I think 20 of our own group mares to him.”

Solid and consistent throughout his career, Mr Lupton took the
Weatherbys Hamilton £300,000 2-Y-O S. at Doncaster and was
second in Redcar’s Listed Two-Year-Old Trophy in 2015, ran fifth
in the following year’s G1 Haydock Sprint Cup and captured
Newmarket’s competitive Longholes H. last May. This term, the
best of his efforts came when runner-up in the Listed Cammidge
Trophy back at Doncaster on Mar. 24 and when successful again
in a big-field handicap over this course and distance on May 26
and he finally gained the black-type win he deserved here.

Off the mark in black-type company in Haydock’s Listed Spring

in Epsom’s G3 Diomed S. last term, has already proven that he is
able to perform to that level again in 2018. Not disgraced when

on June 30 and reproduced his best form to prevail over

furlong and was ridden out to score by 2 1/4 lengths from
Absolute Dream (Ire) (Dream Ahead). He is one of three winners

going one mile at Newmarket on May 18, seized control after
dawdling early strides in this handicap bow. Dictating thereafter,
the 7-4 pick was nudged along with three furlongs remaining
and gradually extended his advantage under a final-quarter

Successful twice over six furlongs in the provinces, Harmless
followed a smooth debut at La Teste de Buch May 8 with a game
follow-up under a penalty at Toulouse June 8 and entered this
Paris bow with an unbeaten record to protect. Perfectly nestled
against the fence just off the early pace by Maxime Guyon, the
chestnut was delivered to the inside as the rail cutaway and
after seizing the advantage with 300 metres remaining did
enough to hold his rivals headed by the filly Pivottina. In doing
so, he was providing his first-season sire Anodin, Haras du
Quesnay’s MG1SP full-brother to Goldikova (Ire), with a first
black-type winner in the process.
“He’s a nice precocious horse who has been doing well,”
trainer Christophe Ferland said. “Last time at Toulouse, he had
to give a lot of weight to the second but still managed to win
and I was afraid he had had a hard race there, but he recovered
well and was in top form today. I like the way he controlled the
race when he got to the front and you will not see much of him
now until September, when he will be back for the [Sept. 2 G3
Prix la] Rochette. If he is good enough, he’ll then go for the [G1]
Grand Criterium.” The owners’ racing manager Pierre-Yves
Bureaux added, “He is from the first crop of Anodin, so
obviously it is a nice start for him. This is especially pleasing, as
he is not a homebred and we bought him.”
Harmless is out of an unraced daughter of the listed-winning
Snow Gretel, who is a half-sister to the G2 Royal Lodge S. winner
and G1 2000 Guineas runner-up Snow Ridge (Ire) (Indian Ridge
{Ire}). Her dam is Snow Princess (Ire) (Ela-Mana-Mou {Ire}), who

Labeled a ‘TDN Rising Star’ following her taking debut success
over an inadequate mile at this circuit Apr. 19, Zarkamiya took a
backward step next time when only fourth in a 10 1/2-furlong
conditions event at Chantilly May 18 and reappeared with
questions to answer. Anchored in mid-division early by
Christophe Soumillon, the bay had to navigate her way around
the errant long-time leader Aumale (GB) (Dansili {GB}) inside the
final quarter mile as fellow ‘TDN Rising Star’ Enchanting Skies
got first run on her. Finding some of her brilliant dam’s famous
acceleration to close the gap, she managed to join that rival in
the last 50 metres before asserting for a vital first black-type
success.
Trainer Alain de Royer-Dupre is hoping she can still measure
up to her outstanding pedigree. “She’s a sweet filly, but she has
a tendency to worry about everything and her rider has to
manage her stress,” he explained. “He did that very well today
and she was able to show her true quality. Of course, you would
expect there is improvement to come as she is very lightly-raced
and so well-bred, so we’ll see how she comes out of this. The
[Aug. 12 G3 Prix] Minerve at Deauville is a possibility.” The Aga
Khan’s racing manager Georges Rimaud added, “This is
obviously a nice stallion and mare combination. She was sore in
her back after last time and she took a long while to come back.
She also likes an even track like this.”
Zarkava, whose best days were reserved for this track,
requires no introduction as the ground-breaking unbeaten
heroine of the Arc and G1 Poule d’Essai des Pouliches and
G1 Prix de Diane. This is her sixth foal and second winner
alongside the G1 Grand Prix de Saint-Cloud hero and G1 Prix du
Jockey Club runner-up Zarak (Fr) (Dubawi {Ire}). Her 2-year-old
colt by Invincible Spirit (Ire) is named Zarkallani (Fr), while she
also has a yearling filly by Siyouni (Fr).

ZOUSTYLE WINS AGAIN; TO SPELL Zoustyle (Aus) (Zoustar {Aus}) earned ‘TDN Rising Star’ status
with a five-length maiden score at Doomben on June 27, and the
dark bay followed up on the Sunshine Coast on Saturday with
another facile front-running score, stopping the clock in :58.66
for the five furlongs over soft going. Trainer Tony Gollan told
Racing Queensland that the 2-year-old will sit out the spring
before aiming at a Sydney autumn campaign.
“He ran a good time again, which is good and he was very
impressive once again,” Gollan said. “The spring has probably
come a bit too early for him this time so I’ll put him away for a
decent spell. This is his first preparation so I’ll let him enjoy it
and he can come back matured and a lot stronger. He’s a good
horse in the making and deserves to be looked after.”
“He’ll come back after a break and have one or two runs and
possibly in a stakes before we look at the Sydney autumn with
him.”
Zoustyle is one of a handful of standouts for the dominant
leading first-season sire by prizemoney, Zoustar, who stands at
Widden Stud and will shuttle for the first time to Tweenhills Stud
in Britain next year.
