BIGGEST DANGER TO THEPOPULARITY OF BETTING

Op/Ed by Kevin Blake

Horse racing, in common with any sport, has its share of

opportunities and challenges as it fights for the public's

attention and support. The world of sport and entertainment

has never been more competitive than it is now, and with it

being a world that is ever changing and evolving, those sports

that fail to adapt to their customers' needs and wants are being

left behind.

Of all the challenges that horse racing faces in Great Britain

and Ireland, one of the biggest dangers is also the one that is the

least discussed in the racing media. It is a problem that has been

growing steadily for the better part of a decade and now

represents one of the biggest threats to the future financial

stability and popularity of horse racing. That problem is the

rampant practice of bookmakers severely restricting the stakes

it allows bettors to place on the outcomes of horse races.

Listening to the plethora of bookmaker's PR reps that are

omnipresent in the racing media, an outside observer might

think that modern bookmakers are aggressive operators that

take on all comers both big and small. However, unless you are

an incompetent or ill-informed bettor that is a long-term loser,

the reality couldn't be further from this image.

SIX AUSSIE RAIDERS FOR APPLEBY Godolphin trainer Charlie Appleby will have his first Australian

runners during the spring carnival, and the Newmarket-based

conditioner will look to make a big impact with six shippers,

according to Racing.com.

Scottish (Ire) (Teofilo {Ire}) was on Wednesday assigned a

weight of 54.5kg (120 pounds) for the G1 Caulfield Cup Oct. 15,

and Appleby told the site, "I am happy with that weight. He is an

adaptable horse with a high cruising speed, who I think will be

ideal for Caulfield.@

Scottish is one of five nominated by Appleby to the Nov. 1

G1 Melbourne Cup, and the trainer said, "All of the five in my

stable have completed their preparations over here [in

Newmarket] and they are ready to go into quarantine on

Sept. 15.@

Biggest Danger To The

Popularity of Betting cont. from p1

While bookmakers will do everything they can

to court, accommodate and encourage bettors

that have proven themselves to be consistent

losers, bettors that show even a hint of

competency and seek to avail of a competitive price can expect

to have their stakes with online bookmakers

severely restricted, often to literally cents and

pennies. The situation isn't much better in

betting shops, with bookmakers employing all

sorts of methods to make it as difficult as

possible for skilled bettors to place bets of

anything bar small stakes with them.

The betting world has unquestionably

undergone significant change in the last 15

years or so, primarily due to the popularity of the internet and

online betting. This has made it easier for bookmakers to

monitor their customers, but it has also led to bettors becoming

more informed and aware of the importance of value.

In that time there has also been a notable change in

bookmaker behaviour that has led the betting industry to the

situation it now finds itself in.

In the past, bookmakers took pride in their bravery in taking

on all comers, being willing to take losses from individuals in the

hope that they would beat that customer in the long run.

However, the modern reality for bookmakers is that the

bean-counting accountants have taken over. The type of

customer they primarily want to deal with is the small-staking

recreational bettor that will bet all day long without any regard

for value, strategy or discipline.

How they seek to achieve this is by either

closing the accounts or more commonly

severely restricting the permitted betting

stakes of any of their customers that show

competency in their betting.

The danger of this policy should be obvious

to all. Horse racing is an incredibly complex

sport in which the betting odds are

fundamentally fixed in the favour of the

bookmakers. Becoming skilled and disciplined enough to have a

chance at making a long-term profit by betting on it takes

thousands of hours of work and only a very small percentage of

people that bet on horse racing make it pay. Cont. p3

“Bettors that show even a hintof competency and seek to avail

of a competitive price canexpect to have their stakes with

online bookmakers severelyrestricted, often to literally

cents and pennies.”

TDN EUROPE/INTERNATIONAL • PAGE 3 OF 12 • THETDN.COM FRIDAY • 2 SEPTEMBER, 2016

Kevin Blake cont.

With the modern reality for successful bettors being that

placing meaningful stakes at fair prices is often a bigger

challenge than finding winners, one could understand why

intelligent, hard-working sports enthusiasts would rather

dedicate themselves to getting good at betting on a sport in

which they can at least bet in big stakes if they wish to without

undue hassle, such as football.

What is even more concerning is that risk-averse bookmaker

practice doesn't just detrimentally effect profitable bettors. One

doesn't even necessarily have to win money off the bookmaker

to have their account restricted or closed, as backing horses at

bigger prices than they are sent off at no matter whether they

go on to win or lose is often sufficient to result in stake

restrictions from bookmakers.

Worse still, rather than taking these decisions to restrict

bettors based on a large sample of bets, in many cases bettors

are finding their stakes restricted after a mere handful of bets.

This means that countless recreational punters that have been,

or are likely to be, long-term losers are being caught up in the

crossfire of bookmaker stake restrictions, causing no end of

frustration and disillusionment amongst a group that is one of

the foundation stones of the racing industry. It is hard enough to

attract new customers into horse racing as it is without

risk-averse bookmaker practice turning them away from betting

on the sport.

Given that not all horse racing supporters are regular bettors,

this problem is not one that will be familiar to everyone involved

in racing. Awareness of the scale and seriousness of the problem

has also been stifled by the fact that bookmakers are one of the

leading advertisers and employers in the racing media, meaning

that precious few racing journalists and broadcasters have been

willing to upset the apple cart by raising the issue.

Even to those supporters of horse racing that have no interest

in betting, the bigger-picture ramifications of all of this should

be very clear. Whether one likes it or not, horse racing and

betting are joined at the hip. In all bar a handful of super-rich

racing jurisdictions, a significant proportion of the funding that

funds horse racing comes either directly or indirectly from the

betting industry. Whether one is talking about betting tax/levy

that directly funds the sport, the lucrative media rights deals

that are so vital to the finances of racecourses or the significant

sponsorship/advertising revenue the racing industry attracts

from the betting sector, all of it is directly linked to the

popularity of betting on horse racing. If betting turnover on

racing continues to drop, the value of all those revenue streams

will drop, which will translate to drastically-reduced funding and

media coverage for horse racing. Cont. p4

TDN EUROPE/INTERNATIONAL • PAGE 4 OF 12 • THETDN.COM FRIDAY • 2 SEPTEMBER, 2016

Kevin Blake cont.

Horse racing's share of the betting turnover pie has already

been significantly reduced in the last 15 years as betting on

other sports and wagering mediums has increased in popularity.

Increasingly risk-averse practice by bookmakers and active

efforts by bookmakers to funnel horse racing bettors into other

betting mediums that are more profitable and predictable for

them, such as sports betting and casino games, are only serving

to accelerate this redistribution of betting turnover.

The solution to this very serious problem is simple. A

precedent has been set in Australia in recent years whereby the

racing authorities in New South Wales made it a requirement for

any bookmaker that wished to take bets on races held there to

guarantee to accept a bet from any customer to lose a minimum

liability of AUS$1,000 at country tracks and AUS$2,000 at city

tracks. Despite a great amount of protest from the bookmakers

at the time that new rule was introduced, two years into the

arrangement reports suggest that the guarantee is working to

the satisfaction of both bookmakers and bettors. Indeed, a

similar policy is currently in the process of being implemented in

Victoria.

The closest thing we have to such a situation in Great Britain

and Ireland are a set of similar guarantees that were voluntarily

introduced by Coral for their British-based betting shop

customers, which they have expressed satisfaction with. More

recently, a new bookmaker called Black Type Bet has launched

in recent weeks that seeks to return to a traditional bookmaking

model and offer a guaranteed bet up to a ,500 liability to all

comers as well as a promise not to close winning accounts.

While it is admirable for Coral and Black Type Bet to take it

upon themselves to offer such guarantees, if the tide of falling

betting turnover on horse racing is to be reversed, the

introduction of an across-the-board bet guarantee is the only

realistic solution. This is too serious a situation for the

government and the racing authorities to continue to ignore.

BBAG YEARLING SALE FRIDAYBy Emma Berry

Germany=s main yearling auction gets underway today in the

picturesque spa town of Baden-Baden. After withdrawals, 238

yearlings are set to go under the hammer for the one-day sale

held during a week of top-class racing, culminating in Sunday=s

G1 Grosser Preis Von Baden, at Iffezheim racecourse next-door

to the sales complex.

A New Approach (Ire) colt named Woodkid (Ger) from the

Gestut Brummerhof draft topped last year=s sale at i400,000,

with turnover of i6,345,250 being accrued from the sale of 152

horses at an average price of i41,745 and median of i30,000.

Gestut Auenquelle=s popular stallion Soldier Hollow (GB) (In The

Wings {GB}) was the leading sire by average in 2015, with 15

yearlings sold for i81,300, and he has an even bigger

representation in this year=s sale with 31 yearlings catalogued.

The 2013 running of the G1 Prix Ganay at Longchamp saw

Soldier Hollow=s top-rated son Pastorius (Ger) narrowly get the

better of the Niarchos-bred Maxios (GB) (Monsun {Ger}), and

the two--now

stablemates in

Gestut Fahrhof=s

stallion yard--will go

head-to-head again,

this time in the ring

at Baden-Baden,

where members of

their first crops will

be put to the test.

Pastorius has eight

catalogued, while

Maxios, whose first foals averaged over i70,000 in Europe last

year, has 21.

Maxios is not the only freshman son of Monsun with yearlings

on sale today, as Darley=s Haras du Logis resident Masterstroke

is represented by four yearlings. The first-season sire line-up is

completed by Gestut Rottgen=s Reliable Man (GB), along with

Camelot (GB), Dabirsim (Fr), Havana Gold (GB), Lethal Force

(Ire), Most Improved (Ire) and Planteur (Ire).

Lot 194, Gestut Wittekindshof=s filly by the 2009 G1 Deutsches

Derby Wiener Walzer (Ger) (Dynaformer), has benefitted from a

decent update this season as her dam Serienhoehe (Ire) (High

Chaparral {Ire}), winner of the G3 Maurice Lacroix-Trophy, is a

half-sister to the G1 Preis Der Diana (German Oaks) heroine

Serienholde.

The sale starts at 10 a.m. local time.

HATCHFIELD FARM PLANS REJECTED The approval of Lord Derby=s plans to develop Hatchfield Farm

in Newmarket, building 400 houses on the site, has been

overturned by the government, according to Racing Post. The

controversial plans were approved in July 2014, but were soon

put on hold by then Department For Communities and Local

Government Minister Eric Pickles. Cont. p8

refuses outline planning permission for up to 400 dwellings plus

associated open space (including areas of habitat enhancement)

A142, internal footpaths, cycle routes and estate roads at

Hatchfield Farm."

Another factor in the decision is the impending 2020 closure of

the nearby RAF Mildenhall airbase, which will make housing

space available.

EAGLE TOP RETIRED Eagle Top (GB) (Pivotal {GB}BGull Wing {Ire}, by In The Wings

{GB}), winner of the 2014 G2 King Edward VI S. at Royal Ascot,

has been retired, trainer John Gosden told Racing Post. The 5-

year-old, campaigned as a homebred by Lady Bamford, was

runner-up at Royal Ascot the following year in the G2 Hardwicke

S., and recorded perhaps his most memorable performance

when second by a

nose to Postponed

(Ire) (Dubawi {GB}) in

last year=s King

George VI and Queen

Elizabeth S. Eagle Top

had failed to hit the

board in three tries

this year, and was

last seen finishing

ninth in the

G1 Grand Prix de Saint-Cloud July 3.

"We've decided to retire Eagle Top and hopefully we can now

find a nice stud job for him,@ Gosden told Racing Post. AHe is a

good-looking horse with a good mind on him and he was very

much a top-of-the-ground performer.@

"I thought his best performance was his win in the King

Edward VII S., as the form of the race has worked out very well,@

Gosden added. AAs I remember, he had subsequent Grade 1

winner Adelaide well behind him in second that day."

Out of the stakes-winning Gull Wing, Eagle Top is a full-brother

to this term=s G2 Dante S. winner Wings Of Desire (GB), who

emulated him with a runner-up effort in the King George, as well

as G2 Park Hill S. winner and G1 Investec Oaks third The Lark

FOURTEEN FOR CHINA AUSTRALIA CUP A field of 14 has been drawn for the inaugural Inglis China

Australia Cup, whichBwith a purse of -1-million

(US$149,738)Bwill be the richest open class race ever contested

in China. The race will be run at Yulong Racecourse in Shanxi

Province in the North China region on Saturday.

The field for the 1200-metre race is made up of graduates of

various Inglis sales, and six of the 14 were formerly trained in

Australia.

Seven ownership groups are represented, headed by Yuesheng

Zhang, who has six entered. With two runners each are Zhiheng

Zhao and Zhiqiang An.

The race forms part of Inglis=s program to support horse racing

in China. The company=s Managing Director Mark Webster said,

AThe Chinese racing market continues to evolve at a rapid rate

and Inglis is thrilled to have been a long-time partner. To be

involved with the richest open race run in China in such a long

time is something we are very proud of. Saturday=s race will

mark a significant milestone in the Chinese racing industry and

Inglis hopes to be involved for many years to come and continue

to play a role in strengthening the industry with our Asian

neighbours.@

Yuesheng Zhang added, AThere=s no doubt at all that the Inglis

China Australia Cup will create a big demand of Inglis graduates

exported to China for racing and breeding purposes. Even more

importantly, by having Inglis already signed on for their support

again for next year=s running of the race, they have created their

own brand in the Thoroughbred industry in China as a great

contributor to the development of horse racing in our country.@

THE BALL=S BACK INHENNIG=S >COURT=

by Brian DiDonato

SARATOGA SPRINGS, New York--When trainer Mark Hennig

went down to Lexington last year for the Keeneland September

sale to shop with Don Adam of Courtlandt Farms, he had no idea

what he was getting himself into

AHe just called me up, kind of sent a few horses in and then we

just kept getting more until we had all of them,@ Hennig said of

around this time last year when he started training for the

prominent owner/breeder. AThen we went to the sale at

Keeneland, bought some nice babies.@

Nice babies might be an understatement. When the dust

settled at KEESEP, Adam, Hennig and Courtlandt farm manager

Ernie Retamoza had signed for six regally bred yearlings for a

combined $2,945,000.

STRIVING TO BE BIGGER, BETTER, NEW

ENHANCEMENTS AT KY DOWNS MEETBy Bill Finley

With his track already having purses that are nothing less than

staggering, a five-day festival meet and a betting product that

horseplayers find irresistible, one of the biggest challenges for

Kentucky Downs President Corey Johnsen is how to make one

meet better than the next. It may not be easy, but track

management will try to build on past successes this year with an

improved simulcasting presentation, even higher purses and

through a purse contribution it made to Ellis Park, which

Johnsen believes can only help his track.

Johnsen wants Kentucky Downs to be known as the most

horseplayer-friendly track in the country. With its big fields and

low takeouts, Kentucky Downs is already ranked No. 1 as the top

track for gamblers by the Horseplayers Association of North

America. Yet, Johnsen felt the track's simulcasting presentation

needed work. Cont. p4

AI didn=t know when I got there,@ Hennig said Wednesday

morning outside of his Saratoga barn when asked what the

game plan was going into KEESEP. AMr. Adam just asked me if I

was coming to Keeneland and said he might buy something. I

thought he might buy one horse. But when we started out it

didn=t take me long to realize he was pretty serious about it. And

I think he will be again this year.@

He continued, AMy wife and I went down there and we

combined the lists of horses we had each looked at

independently--I wrote down some horses, Ernie wrote down

some horses and Mr. Adam wrote down some horses and we

looked at those and put together what we felt was a real nice

list. We hit it off right away--it=s a great relationship. We had a

lot of fun during the sale, and we=ve had a great time

subsequently the rest of the year. We=ve had great

communication and we=ve enjoyed it. It feels like a real team.@

in the best form of her

career this term at six.

She annexed the GIII Beaugay S. May 14 at Belmont, but was

eighth in the GI Just a Game S. back there June 11 and fifth--

beaten just 1 3/4 lengths--in the GI Diana S. at Saratoga July 23.

Last Saturday, Strike Charmer rallied from last to first to upset

previously unbeaten Lady Eli (Divine Park) at 27-1 in the

GII Woodford Reserve Ballston Spa S.

AWe were optimistic--we were hoping she could get one of

those with her name on it,@ Hennig said when asked if he was

surprised at all by his charge=s most recent performance. AShe

was close. She had won the Beaugay at Belmont and had shown

she kind of fit with that group. In the Just a Game, she had no

chance to run, and was only beaten six lengths. You kind of just

have to wait until the luck falls your way sometimes. It got us off

the duck [at the meet], too.@

And those pricey Keeneland babies have started showing up in

the afternoon, as well. In last Saturday=s opener, Capitaine

(Tapit), a $400,000 purchase from the family of Kitten=s Joy and

Dreaming of Anna, finished a sneaky-good fifth going six panels.

AHe was out a little wide, got bounced around a bit, but I

thought going three-quarters he ran a very credible race,@ said

Hennig, who added that few if any of the horses he=s ever

trained have run their best race in their first race, and that the

horses Adam purchased at Keeneland are all more geared

towards Classic-type races.

Sunday it was $340,000 pick-up Cursor (Quality Road)=s chance

to strut her stuff. Away slowly, she kicked home nicely down the

center of the track to put a scare into well-meant fellow

newcomer Sky Gesture (Tiznow) and finish a clear second.

AI thought she might go ahead and get the job done going

three-quarters because she=s just that kind of horse,@ Hennig

said of the close relative to local Grade I winner Visionaire and

Grade I-winning >TDN Rising Star= Tara=s Tango. AShe does

everything right. But she had that outside post, got shuffled back

a little bit early. I had told [jockey] Junior [Alvarado] don=t rush

her--don=t chase--let her run her race. She=ll take the dirt, she=ll

do everything right. She=s never done a thing wrong. I thought

maybe class would get her there, but she ran into a nice filly.@

He added, AYou=ve got to be excited about a horse like her. She

was probably less fit than Capitaine, but she just did it out of

pure will. Like I told Mr. Adam after the race, if the winner

wasn=t in there she would=ve broken her maiden by 8 1/2. And

that=s knowing that she wasn=t even totally fit yet. It=s

encouraging, and obviously more ground is going to help her.@

Hennig says he=s pleased with what the Courtlandt 2-year-olds

have shown him despite some setbacks, and will debut a Tapit

colt named Spectacular Jack for Adam in Saturday=s fourth race

at Saratoga.

AHe was just kind of backwards all through the spring,@ Hennig

noted. AIt=s taken him a long time to come around, but the light

seems like it=s really come on for him and his last few works

have been very nice.@

Carrying a $550,000 price tag at the sale, Spectacular Jack is

out of an unraced half-sister to 2002 GI Personal Ensign H.

heroine Summer Colony, who Hennig trained on behalf of the

late, great owner/breeder Ned Evans, in addition to the likes of

Grade I winners Raging Fever and Gygistar around that same

time.

The native Ohioan and former D. Wayne Lukas assistant=s

shedrow is starting to look like it did in the 1990s and 2000s

when he had more firepower behind him.

AIt makes you feel good to know you=ve got those prospects

coming,@ Hennig offered. ASomebody asked me the other day

how many Tapits I=ve trained. I said, >I never had any Tapits

before Mr. Adam came along.= Between the loss of Mr. Evans

and Mr. Adam coming in, it=s a familiar feeling that we haven=t

felt in a long time.@

Bill Finley cont. from p1

AOne of the challenges we have always had has been our video

presentation,@ he said. AI don=t want to make excuses but when

they built this place they built it so the sun sets on the

backstretch and the cameras are looking right into the sun and

it=s also a big, undulating course. With over 90% of the wagering

done off-track, we felt we had to do a better job with our

presentation. This year, we will broadcast in high definition,

which we felt was necessary to get the best video presentation

possible. That was the necessary starting point. We=ve also

changed a camera position in the stretch, and improved our

entire graphics presentation, which will be more easy to read

and easy to understand.@

Johnsen has also gone for quantity and quality in the on-air

talent that will be part of the simulcast presentation. Rather

than one talking head, he will have five, all of them zeroing in on

handicapping and race analysis. The team will include former

turf writer Gary West, handicappers Joe Kristufek, Dick Downey

and Kevin (The Cowboy) Cox and announcer John Lies.

AWe have a group of handicappers and presenters on air and

via social media that is second to none,@ Johnsen said.

Corey Johnsen

The takeout on win, place and show bets at Kentucky Downs is16% and exactas are 18.25%. With the recent cuts in the takeoutat Canterbury Downs, Johnsen acknowledges that his track nolonger has the lowest takeout structure in the country. He saidhe would look into lowering it next year but did not know if thatwould be practical because he doesn=t want to cut too muchinto the profits made by the ADWs, OTBs and simulcastingoutlets taking the Kentucky Downs signal. But he believes whenKentucky Downs lowered its takeout two years ago, it led othersto do the same.

AIt=s actually gratifying to me that we no longer have the

lowest takeouts in North America,@ Johnsen said. AOne of our

goals is to affect change throughout the industry. Our major

source of revenue comes from historical horse racing and we

only have a five-day season, so we can do some things and can

take some risks that other tracks can=t and see if they play out in

a way that would benefit all of the

industry and all of the participants.

We are unique in that way.@

In another move, one that is surely a

first in U.S. racing, Kentucky Downs

and the Kentucky HBPA decided to

donate $1.35 million in purse money

to Ellis Park. The idea was to help a

track that feeds horses to the

Kentucky Downs meet and Kentucky

racing in general.

AWhy didn=t we just keep it for

ourselves? This was something done

in conjunction with the Kentucky HBPA and we collectively

decided it was in the best interests of Kentucky horse racing and

Kentucky Downs to do this,@ Johnsen said. AThe stronger the

Kentucky circuit is, the better the horses that we=re going to

attract at Kentucky Downs. I am fully convinced of that.@

Regally Ready

Del Mar Thoroughbred Club | Benoit

Bill Finley cont.

Even with the contribution to Ellis, Kentucky Downs purses this

year, when including funds from the Kentucky Thoroughbred

Development Fund, will total $7.8 million. Johnsen says that is

an increase of about 10% from last year. And when it comes to

overnight purses, no track--not even Saratoga--comes close. This

year, maiden special weight races will go for $130,000. On

Saturday=s opening-day card, there is a $145,000 allowance

race. In the Kentucky Downs Ladies Turf, the Kentucky Downs

Juvenile, the Kentucky Downs Turf Sprint and the Exacta

Systems Juvenile Fillies, there are four $350,000 stakes on the

Saturday card. The Sept. 10 card includes the $600,000 GIII

Calumet Farm Kentucky Turf Cup, plus three other stakes worth

a combined $900,000.

Johnsen said another goal is to attract the attention of the

graded stakes

committee in hopes

that it will upgrade

these rich races that

usually draw top

quality fields.

AI think we=re right at

tipping point where

the graded stakes

committee will

recognize the fields we

have,@ he said. ALike in

our Turf Sprint, we have Undrafted (Purim) and Regally Ready

(More Than Ready) and both are Grade I winners. The field is

really deep.@

In addition to this Saturday and next, Kentucky Downs will race

on Sept. 8, Sept. 11 and Sept. 15. Florent Geroux was leading

rider last year and looks poised to repeat his title in 2016.

DEL MAR STAKES SCHEDULE RELEASED The Del Mar Thoroughbred Club will stage 14 stakes races

worth a total of $2.05 million during its so-called ABing Crosby

Season@ beginning Nov. 11 and continuing for 15 live dates

through Sunday, Dec. 4.

Fully 10 of the 14 black-type races are graded and are

anchored by a pair of Grade I tests at the end of the meet--the

Dec. 3 Hollywood Derby for sophomore turf males at nine

furlongs; and the Matriarch S. for turf distaffers at a flat mile

Dec. 4.

Owing to recent reductions in handle during the fall meeting,

some races have been canceled altogether while others have

seen their purses

slashed. The $100,000

Desi Arnaz S. for

sprinting 2-year-old

fillies has been

shelved, while the

purses for the GII

Hollywood Turf Cup

(now $200,000), the

GII Seabiscuit H.

($200,000) and GIII Native Diver H. ($100,000) have each been

cut by $50,000. Added to the schedule is the GII Bayakoa H.,

previously staged at Los Alamitos, while the Golden State

Juvenile, Golden State Juvenile Fillies and Goldikova S. have

returned to the Santa Anita schedule.

AWe had to do some tucking and trimming,@ noted Del Mar

Thoroughbred Club=s Executive Vice President for Racing Tom

Robbins. ABut in the end, we=re pretty much offering our

horsemen a very similar lineup to what they=ve seen here the

past two years. We=ll have a big Thanksgiving weekend with six

stakes and close out strongly in the first week of December with

three of our best races.@

Flintshire (pink cap) squeezes through

inside of Inordinate (green) and Roman

Approval (blue/yellow) | Arianna Spadoni

Rudy Rodriguez

Adam Coglianese

THREE DIAMONDS APPEALS SWORD

DANCER DECISION by Joe Bianca

Three Diamonds Farm has filed an appeal with the New York

State Gaming Commission regarding the Saratoga stewards=

decision to make no change to the order of finish in the GI

Sword Dancer S. Aug. 27.

Juddmonte Farms= Inordinate (Harlan=s Holiday), entered in

the race as a Arabbit@ for heavily favored Flintshire (GB) (Dansili

{GB}), led to the top of the stretch in the race before appearing

to be guided off the rail by jockey Aaron Gryder while tiring,

allowing Flintshire to slip through inside of him. That move

impeded Three Diamonds= runner Roman Approval (Roman

Ruler) around the quarter pole, forcing rider Florent Geroux to

take up sharply. Flintshire went on to win, while Inordinate

finished fifth, a half-length in front of Roman Approval in sixth.

Mike Maker, Roman Approval=s trainer, lodged an objection, but

the foul claim was dismissed by the stewards.

Jordan Wycoff of

Three Diamonds Farm

justified the appeal by

pointing to two New

York racing statutes

that he says Gryder was

in violation of: Rule

4035.4, which requires

a jockey to ride solely

with the purpose of

winning the race, and

Rule 4035 (2) (a), which

prohibits careless riding.

AYou can=t say Aaron was riding to win this race,@ Wycoff told

the TDN. AIf a rider is careless, he=s supposed to be taken down. I

stopped it when we were watching at home, he grabbed his

right rein and looked back to his left. By definition, that=s

careless. He never even looked at Roman. He bumped him first,

then looked back. When these horses start backing up, you=re

supposed to be looking to see if it=s safe, not trying to open up

the rail. We could=ve clipped heels and taken the whole field

down with us.@

Wycoff noted that the rules of New York racing stipulate that

Flintshire, as an uncoupled entrymate of Inordinate, could have

been disqualified for that one=s transgressions, but insists that is

not the goal of this appeal.

AI don=t think that should happen,@ Wycoff said of a potential

Flintshire disqualification. AI think he wins every time you run

that race. It=s not about that. Inordinate wasn=t ridden to win the

race. It=s a $10,000 difference (between the payout for fifth and

sixth-place). It=s mind-boggling that the stewards didn=t see it

the way a lot of people saw it.@

Wycoff said the three jockeys involved were called by the

stewards to discuss the events in the Sword Dancer, but no

claim of foul was made.

AIt=s tough for a jockey to file an objection against Juddmonte

and Chad Brown,@ Wycoff said. ABy nature, it=s just not good for

business.@

Wycoff said Three Diamonds has not yet heard back from

NYRA or the NYSGC as to their appeal.

SPECIAL RISK TO TRY SPINAWAY On a sloppy Sunday afternoon two summers ago, Condo

Commando (Tiz Wonderful) gave trainer Rudy Rodriguez the

first Grade I victory of his training career in the GI Spinaway S.

Though only a maiden, but placed in her two trips to the post to

date, Special Risk (Eskendereya) will be given a shot against

some of Saratoga=s fleetest juvenile fillies in the 2016 renewal

Saturday afternoon.

Owned in partnership by Michael Dubb and The Elkstone

Group--who also campaigned Condo Commando--and Sol

Kumin=s Head of Plains Partners,

Special Risk outran debut odds of

15-1 to finish a good third at

Belmont Park May 18 and bridged

most of a seven-length deficit in

the final furlong of a July 22 Spa

maiden before finishing second by

a half-length behind the front-

running Bowie (Malibu Moon).

"We're just taking a chance. She

looks like she wants to go the

distance so that's going to be a

plus, but the race is going to be

tough," Rodriguez said. "We've

just got to hope that she improves a little bit and is competitive.

There's a couple horses in there that look like they're pretty fast,

so hopefully they hook up and go :21 and :44 [seconds] and

maybe we can sit behind and pick up some of the pieces."

Special Risk drew gate two and will be ridden by Joel Rosario.

"She looks like she's coming into the race good, and the post is

good,@ Rodriguez commented. AShe drew on the inside and she

doesn't have much speed. She's going to be sitting there and she

doesn't have to take back so maybe she'll be a little closer than

drawing on the outside and having to save ground. Hopefully we

can pick up a check. If we win, I'm not going to get mad.@

SUMMER REVOLUTION TO STRETCH OUT Summer Revolution (Summer Bird), who suffered the first lossof his young career when a solid fourth behind >TDN Rising Star=Drefong (Gio Ponti) in the GI Ketel One King=s Bishop S. Aug. 27,will try a route of ground for the first time in the GI PennsylvaniaDerby at Parx Racing in suburban Philadelphia Sept. 24. "He came out of the race very good, so I'm going to take iteasy with him," he said. "He looks very good, very happy. Ithought he ran a good race considering the race he ran beforewas a huge race. We're going to take a look at the PennsylvaniaDerby. I think he can stretch out. We're going to take each raceas it comes and hopefully he'll run good over there.@ Summer Revolution returned $30 to his backers when rompingby 7 1/4 lengths at first asking at Belmont Park on IndependenceDay and proved that effort was no fluke with a smart three-length allowance success at Saratoga Aug. 6. After briefly flirtingwith the idea of a start in the GI Travers S., trainer RudyRodriguez and owner Jeff Drown elected the King=s Bishop andthe colt attended the modest early pace before staying on wellto be fourth, beaten four lengths. "Right now I don't have any regrets about running him,@Rodriguez offered. AHe looks like he came back good; the onlyregret is that we didn't win the race," Rodriguez said. "Thewinner ran a big race. I don't think he embarrassed himself. Hegot a little tired. For a minute it looked like we were going to besecond, but he ran good." A $40,000 Keeneland September yearling turned $90,000 OBSApril juvenile, Summer Revolution has earned $126,000 to date.

JOHN E. CASSE

My name is John E. Casse and many people around Ocala,

Florida, might tell you that my father Norman Casse was "OBS."

But I am here to tell you that he was

not....Tom Chiota was. Tom was at

OBS day in and day out working and

caring for the Ocala Breeders' Sales

Company for more than 25 years.

Without Tom Chiota, the Ocala

Breeders= Sales Company would not

be where it is today, which is known

as the pre eminent Thoroughbred

institution to buy a training horse. I

know and believe this in my heart.

Let's not get too caught up in this

accomplishment because that was not

the ultimate goal to him or the men who started OBS. What

meant everything to Tom and my father and Harry Mangurian

and Hilmer Schmidt and all of those pioneers was that Florida

and Ocala horsemen had something that they could be proud of,

and I am quite confident that they are. Thank you Lorraine,

Nicole and all of Tom's family for sharing him with us. God Bless

and Godspeed, Tom.

Sincerely,

John E. Casse

Ten Things Investors Can Learn from the Horse Track

Michael Mauboussin, one of the sharpest thinkers in finance

once said, ACrist on Value is one of the best 13 pages on

investing I have ever read.@ I couldn=t agree more, it=s fantastic.

The essay is all about how bettors think and behave at the race

track. The parallels between horses and securities are so similar

that you could replace horse with a stock and it would read just

the same. Michael Batnick, Irrelevant Investor

TDN=s Steve Sherack and Brian DiDonato will give their best bet of the day

for every Friday, Saturday and Sunday card of the Saratoga meet, and bet

$50 Win/Place on their selection. In the case of a scratch, an alternate pick

will be posted on Twitter. The handicapper who has accrued the biggest

bankroll through Sept. 3 wins.

SS: Last Sunday=s Result - Absolutely brutal beat with C d=Cat,

who sat the exact trip I was looking for and just got tagged on

the line to lose by a nose in a painful bobber at 7-1... Another

great job by DiDonato, who seems to do nothing but tout live

firsters at overlays in this contest as well as out of town on

Twitter... Only three races left to go--time to go bomb hunting.

Total: $1,117.50.

Friday, Race 10, Md40k - Was very tempted to go with

Luckystrikedelcoco a bit earlier on the card, but will take a big

swing for the fences with another Joe Sharp trainee fresh off the

heels of C d=Cat=s big effort last weekend. It hasn=t really

happened yet this meet, but the inner turf course at the Spa can

produce some pretty hefty payouts on longshot frontrunners in

races going at or around this distance. The speedy Bermuda

Triangle returns to grass and adds blinkers in his first start off

the claim after setting a hot pace in a six-furlong dirt sprint here

back in late July. His lone attempt at this level going seven

furlongs on grass at Belmont was pretty solid. He finished up

sneaky good and was awfully rank in the early stages while

racing under cover. Seeing out this distance is an obvious

concern, but here=s hoping he gets brave on a clear lead at a big

price. Selection: #8 Bermuda Triangle (20-1).

BD: Last Sunday=s Result - Sky Gesture took a little tote support,

went off at 5.7-1 and led box to wire to keep our success with

the 2-year-olds going. Meanwhile, that was just a gross beat for

Steve. Contest or no contest, was rooting hard for that one to go

the other way. Three more races to dodge a big one from him--

this thing=s certainly not over yet. Total: $2070.

Friday, Race 6, MSW - I knew I wanted to pick someone in this

race, but I probably scrolled through pedigree reports, watched

sales breezes and looked at trainer stats for a good hour before

just deciding to throw a dart and move on. There are strong

cases to be made for and against a number of runners in this

race, and in the end I went with the pure pedigree play: Happy

Motoring. She=s a half to GII Breeders= Cup Turf Sprint and GI

Nearctic S. winner Regally Ready, and hails from an old but very

productive family of French sprinter/milers. Trainer Gary

Contessa and owner Lee Pokoik have already connected with a

winning debutante at the meet, and she seems to have shown

some speed in two grass blowouts across the street. Selection:

#1 Happy Motoring (12-1).

It was hardly an easy trip for >TDN Rising Star= Coasted, but the

Treadway Racing Stable colorbearer got the job done anyway,

squeaking through a narrow gap at the fence inside the final 100

yards to collect the P. G. Johnson S. at Saratoga for her first

stakes victory Thursday. Fifth sprinting over the Belmont main

when unveiled July 2, the $210,000 KEESEP yearling drubbed

her rivals over course and distance by six lengths in her turf bow

Aug. 7 en route to >Rising Stardom=. Bet down to 3-5, the bay sat

second last against the fence, as longshot Mo Promise (Uncle

Mo) showed the way through fairly easy splits of :24.80 and

:49.86. In the meantime, Coasted made steady progress up the

inner until the head of the lane where she lacked racing room. It

appeared Coasted would remain hemmed in against the pine

until too late, but the tiring Mo Promise moved out just enough

to let Coasted through. She fought off the rallying Noble Promise

(More Than Ready) in the shadow of the wire to score

comfortably. Majestic Bonnie (Majestic Warrior) completed the

trifecta. Coasted is the sixth stakes winner for her sophomore

sire (by Tiznow).

"The whole race I was having minor heart attacks all the way

around,@ said winning trainer Leah Gyarmati. AFrom where we

were, to watching the times, where we were on the inside, and

where we were in relation to the front runner ... it was kind of

exciting. It's pretty cool to see her do that, because we're going

to need to do all that going forward to these bigger races with

more horses and traffic trouble. It's nice to know you have a

bold horse who can bull her way through. I think probably the

[$200,000 GIII] Miss Grillo [at Belmont Park Oct. 2,], then

hopefully the Breeders' Cup; obviously a lot depends on how she

comes out of the race."

missed by only a nose in Oceanport=s Little Silver S. last July and

filled the same position three starts later at the same venue in a

KEESEP yearling completed the exacta going 1 3/8 miles over

this course Aug. 4 and was 5-1 to go one better Thursday. On

the engine a few jumps from the gate, the bay was wrangled

back to second and kept a close eye on Daring Duchess (Arch),

who traveled a relaxed three-quarters in 1:15.91. Asked for run

on the final bend,

Rachel Wall clawed

past a stubborn

year,@ said Bishop,

daughter of former

Seth Hancock and sister to

current head Walker

Hancock. AWe started to

really understand the

purpose of gaining more fans and retaining the current ones,

especially after the report came out about horse racing [being in]

the state that it was in. This winter, we put the plan into action.@

Already open in a limited capacity, the visitor center will

operate 9:30 a.m to 12:30 p.m. every day farm tours run. It will

be closed during the first week of the Keeneland September

Monday, Sept. 19. It will

also be closed during the

Keeneland November

AWe thought this would

be a nice addition to our

continued. AWe=ve been

giving tours for about 30 years or so, but it was a whole new

approach to look at the visitor expansion. Really they [the fans]

are the ones who keep our game going.@ Cont. p6

Only a maiden entering this contest, Spring Tempest was a

debut second to subsequent SW Conquest Vivi (Court Vision)

here June 12 and, after a rough start, ran third to Let It Ride

Mom (Into Mischief) and Tapa Tapa Tapa (Tapit) in a local affair

July 16. She pressed the early pace, but tired to fourth in her

longest start to date behind the latter going seven furlongs Aug.

27. Positioned in midpack while perched three deep behind a

rapid early tempo, Spring Tempest made her bid for the lead

widest of all up the center of the track turning into the lane. It

took the length of the stretch, but she found the front in the

dying strides to get off the

mark and add some black-

type to her resume, with a

well-timed ride under Patrick

Husbands. AShe went through

the ring and she was really

athletic looking,@ recalled

trainer and co-owner Steve

Owens. AAnd we were looking

for something to purchase to

run in the Yearling Sales S.

That=s the only reason we purchased her. She has tried every

start.@ Her dam Hold the Sugar foaled a filly by Oxbow in 2015

and a colt by Data Link this year. From the same family as GSW

& GISP Haunting (Kris S.), she was later covered by Congrats. Click

BREEDERS’ EDITION

OLG Simcoe S. Cont.

Only a head behind the

reopposing Pachi Cruze

(Valid N Bold) in the

restricted Frost King S. in

his career bow over this

strip June 26,

Lokinforpursemonee

donned cap and gown in

the July 27 Victoria S. at

this venue last out July 17.

Heavily favored to repeat,

the son of Lady Angela S. heroine Anne=s Purse was bumped at

the break and loitered at the rear of the field for the backstretch

run. He inched into contention through a half-mile in :46.48,

split horses in midstretch and narrowly snatched the win from

rival Pachi Cruze in the shadow of the wire. AHe=s been a

dynamic little horse,@ said conditioner John Ross. ATrains well in

the mornings and does all the things good horses do. You can

race him from behind and he goes through tight situations in the

race and that=s what a classy horse does. We=re thrilled to have

him in the barn.@ Anne=s Purse foaled a filly and a colt, both by

Stormy Atlantic, in 2015 and 2016, respectively. She visited Sky

Mesa this spring. Click for the Equibase.com chart or VIDEO,
