Trainer Yoshito Yahagi and jockey

Damian Lane combined to give

Japan a first Cox Plate (Gr 1, 2040m)

win last year with Lys Gracieux

(Heart’s Cry), but on Sunday, they will be in

opposing corners as they tackle the world’s

richest and most heavily-bet Classic, the Tokyo

Yushun (Gr 1, 2400m).

The Derby (Gr 1, 1m 4f) at Epsom may be

the original, the Kentucky Derby (Gr 1, 10f) may

be the best known, but it is the Tokyo Yushun

- the Japanese Derby - that offers the greatest

prize to owners, the highest liquidity for bettors

and, increasingly, the most interest from a

breeding perspective.

Last year, almost US$235 million was wagered

on the Tokyo Yushun, almost one and a half times

the US$166 million handle on the Kentucky

Derby. As for prize-money, the US$4 million of

the Japanese Derby outweighs the US$3 million

Kentucky Derby purse and the US$2 million

Financial statistics aside, the

Tokyo Yushun remains a crucial,

breed-shaping race - the most

important of them all in Japan -

at a time when, globally, Classic

horses are proving less attractive

as a stallion prospect. The

Kentucky Derby, as a ten-furlong

contest, is less affected than the

standard mile-and-a-half Classic

but, these days, it is a rarity that an

Epsom Derby-winning three-year-

old stands out as an exciting potential sire.

In Japan, the Tokyo Yushun remains the race that every owner wants

to win above all others - more than the Arima Kinen (Gr 1, 2500m) or the

Japan Cup (Gr 1, 2400m) - and, generally, a lucrative career at stud awaits

the winner and those in nearest pursuit.

“For all Japanese horsemen, the Japanese Derby is a very special

race to win,” jockey Yuichi Fukunaga, who won the Tokyo Yushun on

Wagnerian (Deep Impact) in 2018, told ANZ Bloodstock News through an

interpreter yesterday. “It is difficult since the horses are so young but is

easily the highest status race to win each year.”

Five of the top seven Japanese stallions in 2019 by earnings ran in the

Tokyo Yushun; among them were two winners, Deep Impact (Sunday

Silence) and King Kamehameha (Kingmambo), a runner-up in Heart’s

Cry (Sunday Silence) and two who finished just behind the placegetters,

Rulership (King Kamehameha) and Daiwa Major (Sunday Silence).

Of the two others who did not run in the Tokyo Yushun, Stay Gold

(Sunday Silence) was a late maturer who would add Group 1 wins at a mile

and a half in the Hong Kong Vase (Gr 1, 2400m) and the Dubai Sheema

Classic (Gr 1, 2400m), while Lord Kanaloa (King Kamehameha), despite

being by a Derby winner, was campaigned as a sprinter-miler at home and

abroad.

With Japanese influence ever-increasing throughout the racing

and bloodstock worlds, all eyes on Sunday afternoon will be on the

Fuchu racecourse, 25 kilometres west of downtown Tokyo, in search of

the next Deep Impact or King

Kamehameha.

Yahagi sends out the

impressive Contrail (Deep Impact),

who took the Hopeful Stakes (Gr

1, 2000m) as a late two-year-old

before returning a dominant

winner in the first leg of the

Japanese Triple Crown, the Satsuki

Sho (Gr 1, 2000m) - the Japanese

2,000 Guineas - at Nakayama last

month. Fukunaga will take the ride

on the unbeaten colt from gate five.

Lane will be legged aboard Contrail’s

main rival, Satsuki Sho runner-up Salios (Heart’s Cry). A juvenile Group

1 winner himself, having won the Asahi Hai Futurity (Gr 1, 1600m) in

tremendous style last December, he is out of German mare Salomina

(Lomitas), who won the Preis der Diana (Gr 1, 2200m), the German Oaks,

for Australian Bloodstock before being sold to Katsumi Yoshida. He will

jump from barrier 12 in the 18-horse field.

It is Contrail, though, who shapes as a potential heir apparent for the

late Deep Impact. Almost a year on from his death, it appears that the

Japanese legend - a winner of seven Group 1 races in 2005 and 2006 and

a sire of 46 Group 1 winners - may have unearthed his magnus opum, his

pièce de résistance, the horse capable of matching his sire’s feats on the

racetrack and who will be given the chance to emulate his success in the

breeding barn.

“I think he has the potential to be one of the greats,” Fukunaga said.

“He just keeps getting better and better so I am really looking forward to

seeing the rest of his career. The sky seems to be the limit with this colt.”

Fukunaga has ridden many a top-liner: Cesario (Special Week) and

her son Epiphaneia (Symboli Kris S), Just A Way (Heart’s Cry), Eishin

Preston (Green Dancer), Real Steel (Deep Impact) and Vivlos (Deep

Impact), among others.

While Fukunaga’s sole Derby win came on Wagnerian, the 43-year-old

has been legged up on classy horses like Real Steel and Epiphaneia in the

blue riband and has rarely finished far from the winner. He believes that

the unbeaten Contrail is primed to add the Tokyo Yushun to his already

burgeoning record, taking him to five wins from five starts.

“From his form, his temperament and everything, he is the right

kind of horse to have going into the Derby,” he said. “Other than his dam

(Rhodochrosite), who raced at shorter distances, he has a pedigree that

should get him there as well.

“His form has continually gotten

better as he has progressed in his career. He has improved greatly even

since the Satsuki Sho. I rode him last week and he was in very good

condition with no problems at all.”

For Yahagi, the addition of speed from Rhodochrosite (Unbridled’s

Song), a maiden from seven starts between 1200 metres and 1400 metres, is a

positive for Contrail as he stretches out to 2400 metres for the first time.

“Deep Impact’s reliability in this race makes Contrail a great contender,”

Yahagi told ANZ Bloodstock News, referencing the fact that three of the last

four Tokyo Yushun winners were sired by Deep Impact, as well as 11 of the 24

placegetters since 2012. “However, his dam also gives him some added speed

which I think will help him get across the line. He has evolved a lot mentally

during the past year but, no, he really has no faults.

He added: “Physically, he hasn’t really changed that much during his

career but his form and balance have gradually improved as he has gained

experience. He is also much better mentally than he was early on. He was

a very tense horse at first but he has matured a lot.”

Yahagi reminisced yesterday about the first time that he laid eyes on the

Deep Impact foal that would become Contrail, ten days after the colt’s birth in

April, 2017, while also sounding a warning to his rivals for the future.

“When I saw him as a foal, he was exactly what you’d want to see in a

Deep Impact foal,” Yahagi said. “While I felt confident then that he would

turn out to be a good horse, I couldn’t have imagined he’d turn out to be

as amazing as he has. He just keeps getting better as well. I think as good

as he was last year, and how much he has improved already this year, that

he will continue to improve and he will be an even more impressive four-

year-old and onward.”

Yahagi, familiar for his expansive collection of hats and his tailored

finery as much as his talent for preparing racehorses, has never been

one to shy away from a challenge. In the last 12 months, his appetite for

adventure has been rewarded with Lys Gracieux taking Japan’s two all-

star races - the Takarazuka Kinen (Gr 1, 2200m) and the Arima Kinen

- as well as Australia’s weight-for-age championship, all in the space of

six months.

The 59-year-old also prepared Loves

Only You (Deep Impact), a potential Cox Plate aspirant this year, to

take the Yushun Himba (Gr 1, 2400m), the Japanese Oaks, a year ago

last weekend, while his turf Grade 1 winner Mozu Ascot (Frankel)

switched to the dirt and won the February Stakes (Gr 1, 1600m) before

an intended Doncaster Mile (Gr 1, 1600m) campaign was thwarted due

to Covid-19.

“Early on in my stable’s

history, we had a lot of runner-

up efforts,” Yahagi said. “But now

we win a lot more and it truly is a

group effort. Every member of my

team works tirelessly to be the best

and it has shown in our results. I

am very thankful to and for them, I

couldn’t do it without them.”

Naturally, for any Japanese

Classic prospect, there is an air

of anticipation about whether

this may be the horse to finally

overcome the nation’s hoodoo in

the Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe (Gr

1, 2400m). Even as a noted and

proven traveller of horses, Yahagi

is not getting ahead of himself

yet, saying that he wants to get

beyond the Derby first. He also

says that, even if Contrail wins,

the lure of joining his sire as a

Triple Crown winner with victory

in the Kikuka Sho (Gr 1, 3000m)

is tempting.

However, he does

acknowledge that owner Shinji

Maeda is determined to win the

Arc; his colours were sported

aboard Kizuna (Deep Impact),

who won the Prix Niel (Gr 2, 2400m) before finishing fourth to Treve

(Motivator) in the Arc in 2013.

“The owner has wanted to win the Arc for a while, so I think there is a

chance of us going to France,” Yahagi said.

It could be a busy October for Yahagi, who also hopes to return to

Melbourne after his successful sojourn last year with Lys Gracieux.

“I will come back to Australia - if not this year, then again soon,” he

said.

The Tokyo Yushun will jump at 4:40pm AEST time on Sunday.

First for ValentiaCornerstone Stud’s first season sire Velentia

(Fastnet Rock) landed his maiden winner

yesterday as Land Of Valens (2 g ex A Country

Girl by Singspiel) took out the 2YO Gold Nugget

(1100m) on debut at Bathurst. The Gerald Ryan-

trained gelding won by a comfortable margin of

two lengths ahead of Delacor (Magic Albert)

with Titan Star (Rubick) coming home a further

three-quarters of a length away in third. Bred by

Cornerstone Stud, Land Of Valens is out of Millie

Fox Stakes (Gr 3, 1300m) winner A Country

Girl (Singspiel) who herself is out of Millie Fox

Stakes (Listed, 1200m) winner and dual stakes

scorer Verdict Declared (Mr Henrysee). Verdict

Declared is also responsible for The Baroness

(Viscount) who is the dam of the dual Group

3 winner and Group 1 placed Princess Posh

(Canford Cliffs). Skyline Stakes (Gr 2, 1200m)

winner Valentia stands at Cornerstone for a fee

of $5,500 (inc GST) in 2020.

Djiva tops Inglis Digital May Online SaleDjiva (High Chaparral), who is carrying a rare

pregnancy to exciting Juddmonte stallion

Kingman (Invincible Spirit) – has topped

the Inglis Digital May Online Sale. Out of a

half-sister to Goldikova (Anabaa), Djiva was

purchased on behalf of HH Sheikh Mohammed

bin Khalifa Al Maktoum by his Racing Manager

Tim Stakemire for $200,000. She was offered by

Chatsworth Park as agent and is carrying one of

only 13 Southern Hemisphere pregnancies to

Kingman. “We are very pleased to have secured

Djiva, considering she is well related and is

carrying a particularly valuable pregnancy,”

Stakemire said. “She will likely visit Pride Of

Dubai this spring – we are very excited about

him given the positive impression made by his

first runners this season – and the trainers seem

to think that they will improve further with time

and racing.” The May Online Sale concluded

yesterday evening with a second consecutive

record gross of $4.75 million from 443 sold (75

per cent).

Winkers applied to Carter favourite Smart filly Gotta Kiss (Not A Single Doubt) will

wear winkers for the first time as she chases

her maiden black-type win in the Bill Carter

Stakes (Listed, 1110m) at Doomben tomorrow.

Trainer Steve O’Dea is hopeful the application

of winkers will stop the two-year-old filly from

laying in under pressure. "She has worked in

them this week," he said yesterday. "Before

the coronavirus we were only giving her a light

winter and to skirt around the better races. But

she gets her chance for black-type on Saturday."

Coast races to determine Atkins fieldRaces at the Gold Coast and Sunshine Coast today

will play a key role in unravelling a complicated

set of scenarios to determine the J J Atkins Stakes

(Gr 1, 1400m) field. After first acceptances were

taken for the J J Atkins, 30 horses were still in

contention for a place in the field next Saturday.

As it stands, Ken Russell Memorial Classic (Gr

3, 1200m) runner-up Tick Tock Boom (Spirit Of

Boom) has the 18th and final place in the field.

Uncomplicated (Akeed Mofeed), 19th on the

ballot, will go past him if she runs in the first

three at the Gold Coast, while Neutron (Starcraft)

(22nd) See Marie (Sebring) (24th) and Corvo

(Spirit Of Boom) (26th) would also go past Tick

Tock Boom if they won or run second at the Gold

Coast. The Stuart Kendrick-trained Way Beyond

(Spill The Beans) and Superare (Exceed And

Excel) could also make the Atkins field if results

fall their way at the Sunshine Coast.

Barr breaks new groundStewart Barr has had plenty of success as

an owner and breeder but the renowned

Queensland horseman has a good chance to

become a stakes-winning trainer as he saddles

Shadow Of Time (Time For War) in the Fred Best

Classic (Gr 3, 1350m) at Doomben tomorrow.

The gelding has won four of his eight starts and

showed he was up to top-class with his last-start

seventh in a 1400-metre three-year-old Quality

at the Sunshine Coast two weeks ago. "I don't like

putting wraps on my horses but I think he will give

the Fred Best a real go," Barr said. "At his last run

he got pushed three and four deep without cover.

Then in the straight he got buffeted about. After all

that he only got beaten about 1.6 lengths. It was a

very good run and Dale Smith who rode him was

also full of praise."

Shalwa chasing black typeStud-bound mare Shalwa (O’Reilly) will be

after an elusive black type victory in the Helen

Coughlan Stakes (Listed, 1350m) at Doomben

tomorrow, before she heads to the breeding

barn this season. She showed she was up to

stakes company when second in the Just Now

Quality (Listed, 1350m) during the Brisbane

summer, but trainer Tony Gollan wasn't entirely

happy with her form. "We took the blinkers off

her in March and she has been able to get out

in distance and be strong," Gollan said. "Shalwa

is off to stud this year and this is a chance for

her to get more black type. She really has turned

things around since we made the gear change."

Queensland riding ranks thinThe jockey shortage for Queensland’s winter

carnival has been compounded by another

suspension for Baylee Nothdurft and injury

to Matt McGillivray. Group 1-winning jockey

McGillivray will miss tomorrow’s Doomben

meeting after he was injured in a fall at the

Sunshine Coast on Wednesday night. Northdurft

was again suspended for careless riding at the

meeting and will need a stay to take mounts at

the Stradbroke Handicap (Gr 1, 1400m) meeting

next Saturday. The coronavirus travel restrictions

mean only a few interstate jockeys will be riding

in Brisbane over the next two weeks. Queensland

Jockeys Association boss Glen Prentice said

McGillivray suffered apparent concussion after

being knocked out and was complaining of neck

soreness. “The doctors are doing further scans

today before he can be released,” he said.

Newnham splits juvenile filliesMark Newnham will split his two-year-old fillies

between states with Mrs Maisel (Hinchinbrook)

staying in Sydney while Panna Cotta (Fastnet

Rock) has arrived in Brisbane for a stakes race

opportunity. Listed-placed behind the unbeaten

Macroura (Snitzel) last time out, Panna Cotta has

been scratched from Rosehill and will get another

chance in black-type company in the Bill Carter

Stakes at Doomben. In sending Panna Cotta

north, Newnham has taken a longer-term view

as he seeks to boost her prize-money for future

carnivals. “It builds a good base for the spring and

it also allows them to get a bit more prize-money

so in the springtime she is already qualified for

a lot of races,” Newnham said. “She ran third

the other day in a Listed race and she’s still got

improvement to come.” Mrs Maisel is set to run

in the Darley 2YO Handicap (1100m) at Rosehill,

although Newnham will have a more in-depth

look at the race before making a final decision on

a start.

Lord Mayor an ‘omen’ in CupThe Lord Mayor (Rock ‘n’ Pop) will be the omen

bet for the Lord Mayors Cup (Listed, 2000m) at

Rosehill on Saturday after Chris Waller decided

against a trip to Brisbane where he was also

entered. A Flemington winner over the distance

in January, The Lord Mayor is expected to be

nearing his peak after two runs from a spell. “He

is obviously drawn wide but on a heavy track, I’m

hoping it’s not too much of a disadvantage,” Waller

said. “He’s got a good rider aboard in Tommy

Berry, who will be looking to get him some cover

and give him a chance to finish off strongly and

third up from a spell we expect him to improve.”

Victoria Star to climb through ranks in winterVictoria Star (Tavistock) has reignited his racing

career in Australia this season and Greg Eurell

believes the well-travelled gelding can continue to

step up in Melbourne this winter. The six-year-old

runs in tomorrow’s Vale Kevin O’Brien Handicap

(1400m) at Caulfield with the winner to be exempt

from ballot in the Winter Championship Series

Final (Listed, 1600m) at Flemington in early July.

Victoria Star began his career in New Zealand

where he won twice racing under the name

Rocstock before a sale to Hong Kong. Unplaced in

two runs in Hong Kong, Victoria Star later found

his way to Eurell’s team and has won three of his

four starts for his new trainer this season. “I just

think he probably didn’t like the environment

over there (in Hong Kong) and he just never fired,”

Eurell said. He hasn’t missed a beat at home. He’s

certainly ready to go again so it would have been

very disappointing had we not been able to get a

start on Saturday.”

Busuttin, Young hoping for best from RogueTrent Busuttin is hoping a change of location

will bring out the best in his recent stable

acquisition Scottish Rogue (Rothesay). A

former member of the Tony and Calvin McEvoy

stable, Scottish Rogue runs for the first time

for Busuttin and partner Natalie Young in the

Neds Handicap over 1200 metres at Caulfield

on tomorrow. “He turned up at the stable in

great order,” Busuttin said. “I don’t know how

much improvement there is in the horse, so

what we’re hoping for is that a change is as good

as a holiday.” Busuttin said Scottish Rogue had

won a recent jump-out at Cranbourne although

the trainer was unsure of the strength of the

opposition. “I can’t fault the horse,” Busuttin

said. “Since he’s been with us he’s been working

well, eating well, and he’s capable of running

well in a race like this.”

Trinder prepares for Tasmanian returnLeading trainer Adam Trinder will have a small

team upon the return of Tasmanian racing

next month. Covid-19 restrictions saw the

Tasmanian Government put the racing industry

on hold from April 2. Earlier this month a return

of June 14 was announced, giving trainers a

chance to ready their horses for a return. “We

are starting to get a little bit of enthusiasm

about ourselves. We trialed 14 there yesterday

(Wednesday) at Launceston,” Trinder told

Racing.com. “The trials went really well (and)

it was good to be back in a public arena from

a mental perspective. We’re starting to get a bit

of optimism and light at the end of the tunnel.

I tipped a lot of horses out when it (the restart

date) went from May 15 to June 14. We will have

enough (racing) to be competitive, but not as

much as we had initially hoped to."

Racing Victoria reveals spring optionsThe Melbourne Racing Club has told RV it wants

to transfer the Caulfield Cup (Gr 1, 2400m) from

its traditional mid-October date to the end

of November. This would result in a dramatic

overhaul of the spring carnival. Another option

for RV is to leave the program as it currently

stands but this would lead to a clash with AFL

finals series in October. RV chief executive Giles

Thompson said ongoing discussions would

continue with key stakeholder groups including

race clubs, trainers and owners. He expects

to have some clarity on what the spring may

look like by early June. Thompson said when

coronavirus struck and thoughts swung to what

a spring carnival may look like, everything was

on the table. That included moving the whole

carnival back two, three or even four weeks. But

the Victorian Racing Club remained steadfast

in their decision not to shift the date of the

Melbourne Cup (Gr 1, 3200m) from the first

Tuesday in November.

Browell: Make spring changes permanentMoonee Valley Racing Club CEO Michael

Browell is in favour of changes made to the

spring racing calendar this year becoming

permanent. "I'm not adverse to considering

these changes long term, there is nothing to

suggest that 150 years ago when they set the

calendar that they got it right, and to now have

the opportunity to go into it and see how we can

evolve," he told Racing.com. "There is merit in

considering what a future carnival might look

like, clearly the AFL finals playing during the

Caulfield carnival is less than ideal, in saying

that the AFL Grand Final could be played in

the future [this year] on the 100th running of

the Ladbrokes Cox Plate. Clearly reworking

elements of the racing calendar has merit. The

challenge here is we have one view that this is

something of a one-year solution or another

is that it's a trial run of what it looks like in

the future, it just depends what lens you view

through."

Forsman to make do with Melbourne scheduleNew Zealand trainer Andrew Forsman, who

trains in partnership with Murray Baker said

the Caulfield Cup scheduled in its usual time

slot is a target race for well-performed stayer

The Chosen One (Savabeel), who is also being

aimed at the Melbourne Cup (Gr 1, 3200m)

which looks set to remain on the first Tuesday in

November. “It would have been one of the key

races we’d look to run him in,” Forsman said.

Should the proposed rescheduling take place,

Forsman believed it would still be viable to

contest the famed Cups double in inverse order

and said dropping back 800 metres in distance

would not be impossible. “It is probably not

that difficult to be honest, once they’re up

and at peak fitness,” he said. “The difference

between having a horse ready for 2400 metres

or two miles is not a hell of a lot. I don’t view it

as too much of a drama.”

July target for crowd returns in VictoriaRacing Victoria is working towards allowing

racehorse owners and some race club members

to be back on course in July. RV chief executive

Giles Thompson said June 22 was a key date

as the Victorian state government announces

any changes on further relaxing Covid-19

restrictions. "Our aim is to get people back to

courses as soon as we can," Thompson told RSN

927. "July is a possibility, there's no doubt about

that. The core part of that whole process is we've

got to where we are today because of the strict

protocols we have around the racing operation

on the track. Anything we do from a crowd

perspective has to protect that. We cannot put

at risk those protocols, so it's really important

to work with the clubs as we get people coming

back to the course who are not necessarily

essential to racing day in and day out that there

is separation between those groups."

Walker missing being able to ride trackworkWith jockeys who are part of Racing Victoria's green

and gold teams banned from riding trackwork,

Michael Walker said he is missing the early

mornings and hasn’t been able to secure as many

race riding opportunities. "I just love riding," he

told Racing.com. "It's my job and what I love to do

whether it's a race or at trackwork so it's been hard.

I am just trying to stay positive and really focus on

my riding and keep it going and get it to the level I

want it to be at. I'm happy with the way I am riding.

Obviously, I've had limited opportunities and not

being able to ride work has made it harder. It's the

way the cookie crumbles sometimes but all I can do

is to stay healthy and keep my body in top shape.

Focus is one of the main things. Mentally, if you take

the eye off the ball, you can go backwards so I'm just

keeping my eye on the job."

TRSA hails strong Adelaide resultsAmid difficult circumstances, Thoroughbred

Racing South Australia have lauded the Adelaide

carnival on and off the track with “strong”

revenue and turnover up more than 80 per

cent. "In terms of turnover, obviously it's a bit of

a two-speed economy at the moment with the

TABs with massive retail exposure being closed,"

TRSA boss Nick Redin told Racing.com. "Overall

across all operators, turnover was up over 80 per

cent. No surprise the online bookmakers are up

significantly more than that. Pleasingly for us, in

the face of it, the interstate TABs are actually up

and when you consider that half of their business

is retail and that's closed … that's an outstanding

effort. I'm not at liberty to say what revenue is but,

I think it has been, generally, very, very strong

across those three weekends in May. Pleasingly,

the other meetings around the three Group 1

meetings has been strong as well."

NEW ZEALAND

Rogerson counts down to racing’s return Trainer Graham Rogerson, who operates

in partnership with his wife Debbie and his

granddaughter Bailey, is expecting to have

between 30 and 40 runners at the first northern

race meeting at Te Rapa on July 4. “Obviously

the lockdown is something you’d rather not

have to do, but we’ve come through it all right,”

Rogerson said. “We’re fortunate to have our own

private place, it’s a great facility, and it makes it

easy for us to keep our horses ticking over. So

we’ve got a lot of horses who will be ready to go.

We’ll probably have 40 trialling at Te Rapa on

June 9, then another group at Ellerslie a week

later. Once we get to the first race meeting at Te

Rapa, I think we’ll have 30 or 40 runners. I’ve

been over to look at the Te Rapa track, and it’s

the best I’ve seen it look in a long time.”

NZTR hoping for legislative change before electionNew Zealand Thoroughbred Racing chief

executive Bernard Saundry has advised the

industry is a matter of weeks away from hearing

back from the Select Committee following

submissions on the Racing Industry Bill. This Bill

finalises the post-transition governance structure

of the racing industry, creates a legislative

framework to enable property to better benefit

the racing industry, and enables new ways of

seeking approval for betting products. “With the

racing industry bill, we are very supportive of the

process the Racing Minister has implemented to

have two sets of reform delivered and some new

legislation in 15 months,” Saundry said. “The

advice we have got is that the Select Committee

will report back by June 8 and hopefully we can

have some new legislation in place on the second

reform bill before the election.”

time Listed and dual Group winner Spinning

Memories will be offered on behalf of Pan

Sutong Racing Bloodstock at the Magic Millions

Bary hopes to continue Spinning Memories associationTrainer Pascal Bary hopes that Spinning

Memories may remain in his stable for the rest

of the European summer, even after she goes

through the Magic Millions Online Sale next

week. "She did it well given the track is not ideal

for her," Bary said. "She is very good over a straight

course or the single turn of the Longchamp 1400

metres but she coped well and really picked up

well. She is due to be sold Thursday on the Magic

Millions website, so I don't know if I will get to

keep her. I know her inside out and I would love

to still train her. I think that, were she to stay with

me, the objective would be the Prix Maurice de

Gheest. There is also Ascot and the Diamond

Jubilee but that will come soon enough so we will

have to see."

BY ADAM POTTS | RACING POST

The Osarus Breeze-Up Sale broke

new ground on Wednesday by

staging what was essentially

Europe’s first bloodstock online

auction, with each of the 63 lots offered

sequentially in absentia.

The sale, originally due to be held in a

physical format at La Teste on April 8 and 9,

was forced to reschedule due to coronavirus

restrictions. To provide vendors with an outlet

to sell their breezer, Osarus held the sale online

with Managing Director Emmanuel Vivaud

auctioning each lot via live stream.

The two-year-olds were breezed over

various locations in France and Ireland.

Videos of the breeze along with conformation

photos/videos and veterinary information were

uploaded to the Osarus site.

Despite the difficult circumstances, the sale

aggregated €589,500 for 38 lots sold, resulting

in a 58 per cent clearance rate. The average

was €15,500, down around €7,000 on last year’s

figure. The median was €9,000 and private sales

are still ongoing.

Top lot honours went to a son of Intello

(Galileo) offered from the stable of Yann Creff,

who sold to MAB Agency for €58,000. The colt

is out of the multiple stakes-placed Galaxie des

Sables (Marchand de Sable), herself a proven

stakes producer through the Listed-placed

Galaxe (High Chaparral). MAB Agency, the

leading purchaser of the sales, signed for four

lots at a total of €110,500.

Leading trainer Jean-Claude Rouget went

to €50,000 to acquire Antolya, a filly from

the second crop of Prince Gibraltar (Rock

Of Gibraltar), who Rouget trained to win the

Grosser Preis von Baden (Gr 1, 2400m) and

Criterium de Saint-Cloud (Gr 1, 2000m). The

chestnut is a half-sister to Poule d’Essai des

Pouliches (Gr 1, 1600m) bound My Love’s

Passion (Elvstroem), who finished runner-

up to A’Ali (Society Rock) in last year’s Prix

Robert Papin (Gr 2, 1100m) and placed behind

Wooded (Wootten Bassett) in the Prix Texanita

(Gr 3, 1200m) earlier this month.

Antolya was offered by the Prevost Baratte

stable, who uploaded a wealth of information

on each of their lots to the Osarus site,

including height, weight, X-rays & scope

reports, alongside photos and videos. The

Phillip Prevost-Baratte consignment also

achieved €43,000 for a daughter of Elusive

City (Elusive Quality) from the Juddmonte

family which includes Beat Hollow (Sadler’s

Wells), Oasis Dream (Green Desert) and

Kingman (Invincible Spirit).

The two highest priced lots at the fall of the

hammer - a colt by Le Havre (Noverre) out of

the aforementioned Galaxe (High Chaparral),

and a Helmet (Exceed And Excel) half-sister to

three stakes winners, were unsold at €71,000

and €59,000 respectively.

BY DAVID MORGAN | HKJC_RACING

Kings Shield (Scat Daddy) put his

rivals to the sword with a routing

run to victory in the Class 2 Egret

Handicap (1650m) on the Sha Tin

dirt on Wednesday.

The former British-trained import has

given his handler Frankie Lor a puzzle to crack,

though. The 90-rated galloper will climb high

in the handicap for his latest success, and with

high quality dirt-track races being scarce in

Hong Kong, Lor may have to look overseas for

a suitable option at a time when international

travel is uncertain.

“We might run him one more time this

season and then there are no more options,” Lor

said. “I’ll have to talk to the owner but maybe

(South) Korea is a possibility for the dirt race

there (the Korea Cup), and then we might look

ahead to Dubai next year if he shows us that he’s

good enough. But with the coronavirus, we just

don't know yet if we can go anywhere or not.”

Lor saddled his first overseas runner in last

year’s Korea Cup (Listed, 1800m) with Glorious

Artist (Zoffany), fourth in Seoul but down the

field against his stablemate this time.

Kings Shield fared admirably in the Poule

d’Essai des Poulains (Gr 1, 1600m) and St

James’s Palace Stakes (Gr 1, 1m) in Europe as a

three-year-old but has found his groove on the

Sha Tin dirt track since arriving in Hong Kong –

this win was the US-bred gelding’s second from

four attempts on the surface.

“We raced him on the turf but he’s just so-

so, he can be close but he’s not good enough.

On the dirt, he’s a different horse,” Lor said. “He

likes to be up there – if he can lead that’s good

but if not he can sit second and that’s good as

well. He’s just different on the dirt. We’ll have to

see what the handicapper does now.”

The five-year-old was fast to stride, setting

the tempo ahead of Buddies (So You Think),

and when jockey Zac Purton asked the 1.8

favourite to stretch down the home straight,

he didn’t disappoint. Kings Shield galloped

through the line two and a half lengths clear of

Buddies in a Class 2 record time of 1:36.75.

“It was a small field and he had no pressure

on him; he got there very easily and it was there

for him to put up a performance like that but

they’ve still got to do it. He did it well – it was a

nice effort,” Purton said.

Three puts Purton aheadPurton will start Sunday’s 11-race Sha Tin

card with a precious three-win lead in the title

race after snaring a treble.

He made the ideal start to the exclusively

all-weather)track fixture as he sought to gain

the upper hand on his jockeys’ championship

rival Joao Moreira, who sat out the meeting due

to suspension.

The Australian was level with the Brazilian

on 123 wins at the outset and got the early break

he was looking for when Coolceleb (Foxwedge)

rocketed from gate six in the opener, section

three of the Class 4 Shearwater Handicap

(1200m).

The Benno Yung-trained four-year-old

enjoyed an uncontested lead and powered

down the home straight for a three and three

quarter-length success.

The reigning champion made it treble

with a well-judged, galvanising drive aboard

Enfolding (Fastnet Rock) to overhaul Touch Of

Luck (Hard Spun) in the final stride of the last

race, the Class 3 Peacock Handicap (1650m).

The Yung stable bagged a double thanks

to Striking Mr C (Super Easy) in section two

of the Shearwater Handicap. Derek Leung

was strong in the drive to ensure a short-head

success over the Jack Wong-ridden Gunnar

(Hinchinbrook).

Cruz up for a championship challenge

Tony Cruz has his eyes fixed on long-time

trainers’ premiership leader Ricky Yiu following

a treble that took him to 51 wins for the term,

just six off the top spot.

“I think I’d better give it a go!” Cruz said

with a chuckle.

The two-time champion had not had a

single win on the dirt track this term but after

Beauty Loyal (Darci Brahma) broke that cold

snap in section one of the Class 3 Flamingo

Handicap (1200m), Party Everyday (Snitzel)

made it a quick-fire brace in the next, the

Class 4 Spoonbill Handicap (1650m), and

California Concord (Fastnet Rock) turned

that into a hat-trick in section two of the

Flamingo Handicap.

Karis Teetan was in the plate for all three

strikes as he took his season’s tally to 72, with

19 of those having been achieved aboard Cruz-

trained gallopers.

“It’s nice to get a treble for Tony and he

hadn't had a win on the dirt track this season,

so it’s nice to break that for him. He and his

owners have given me good support and I’m

grateful for that,” Teetan said.

After Beauty Loyal’s neck score at 9/1, the

Hong Kong International Sale graduate Party

Everyday broke his maiden, at the 12th attempt,

as the 3.6 second pick in the market.

“Last time he was pulling and hanging out –

we know his problem and the race just needs to

happen for him,” Teetan said. “Today, with the

perfect draw (2), he just had that sit behind the

cover and he switched off nicely. He waited a

little and when he moved up he didn't give up, it

was a nice win. I just hope he gets rid of his bad

habits and he’ll be okay.”

California Concord earned a first win at his

second start in Hong Kong, having won two

from nine in Australia.

“I trialled him when he was up in Conghua

and he really gave me a good feel. It’s all about

quality with him, he’s got some potential, he

was professional out of the gate and he focused

nicely but he’s a next season horse,” Teetan said.

Hidden Spirit (Alamosa), meanwhile,

is surely the season’s Class 5 king. The Paul

O’Sullivan-trained five-year-old nailed his

fourth win in the grade this term – all on the

dirt – and third on the bounce with Neil Callan

in the plate. The Irishman urged the Kiwi

import to run down Curling Luxury (O’Reilly)

for a three quarter-length score in the Swan

Handicap (1800m).

Vincent Ho registered his first win for the

month at Happy Valley just last Wednesday

and he doubled his May tally in section one of

the Class 4 Shearwater Handicap (1200m). The

Francis Lui-trained Thou Shall Sing (Your Song)

rattled home to edge Pearl Champion (Rip Van

Winkle) by a neck.

MAIDEN OF THE WEEK

| 21 |

The Tait family’s red colours with a

white cap have graced racetracks

right across Australia for almost

a century and have been carried

by some of the greats of the turf, from the

precocious Baguette (Rego) through to the

remarkable Tie The Knot (Nassipour).

It is the Tie The Knot family that this week

produced another horse to follow in the form

of Cherry Tortoni (Night Of Thunder), a maiden

winner at Sale on Wednesday.

By 2,000 Guineas (Gr 1, 1m) winner Night

Of Thunder (Dubawi) out of Tortoni (Strategic),

the youngest half-sister to Tie The Knot, Cherry

Tortoni looks set to continue in his family’s

footsteps if his impressive win is anything to go by.

Settling midfield under Billy Egan, Cherry

Tortoni came widest of all upon straightening

and showed tremendous race sense, rushing

up quickly and never looking in too much

doubt. At the line, he had a length and a half

to spare over Not A Zak (El Roca) with Miss

Conduct (Dissident) a length away in third.

Cherry Tortoni was among the first horses

reared at Twin Hills Stud after Olly and Amber

Tait purchased the historic farm, formerly

owned by Mike Willesee and then the Ingham

brothers, from Godolphin in 2017.

Bred and raced by Olly Tait, in conjunction

with his sister Jill Nivison, Cherry Tortoni is the

third foal to race and the second winner for

Tortoni, who was a winner at Wagga from four

starts in 2013.

Tortoni’s dam Whisked (Whiskey Road) won

the Thousand Guineas (Gr 1, 1600m), the Light

Fingers Stakes (Gr 3, 1200m) and the Tea Rose

Stakes (Gr 2, 1500m) during the 1990-91 season.

She was retired to stud in 1992, producing 13-time

Group 1 winner Tie The Knot as her second foal.

She also produced Listed winners Dream Ballad

(Singspiel) and Hood (Shamardal), with Tortoni

her last foal; Whisked died nine days after giving

birth to Tortoni.

It is perhaps even more fitting that Patrick

Payne is Cherry Tortoni’s trainer, given that

Payne carried the red and white aboard Tie

The Knot to victories in the Chipping Norton

Stakes (Gr 1, 1600m) twice, the Ranvet Stakes

(Gr 1, 2000m) and the Expressway Stakes (Gr 2,

1200m).

For Night Of Thunder, it was his eighth

individual winner in the southern hemisphere

this season from just 12 runners, taking him

into second on the First Season Sires table, both

on earnings - behind Pride Of Dubai (Street

Cry) - and by winners, behind Spill The Beans

(Redoute’s Choice).

Night Of Thunder only served one season

at Darley’s Kelvinside property in the Hunter

Valley, producing 58 live foals, but the racetrack

performances of that one crop suggest that he

would be popular should he ever return down

under.

BY STEVE MORAN | @STEVEM_MORAN

If recent history is any guide, then

Western Australian galloper Gatting

faces a monumental task to repeat his

Eastern seaboard debut in the Group 1

Maybe Diva (Craiglee) Stakes win in tomorrow’s

Group 1 Underwood Stakes at Caulfield.

Not only does the son of Hard Spun have

to defy the usually huge odds against longshot

winners repeating, he’d become just the third

horse in 30 years to complete the double; 25

have tried and only Weekend Hussler (2008)

and Northerly (2002) have been successful.

Furthermore, none the past ten Craiglee

Stakes winners has managed to win another race

during the spring which is verily dumbfounding

and must cast some doubt over its Group 1 status

in a Melbourne carnival which, ridiculously, has

six Group 1 races from 1600 metres to 2040 metres

in about as many weeks.

In contrast, the Group 2 Feehan Stakes

— won this year by Homesman — has been a

much better portent of things to come through

the balance of the spring carnival.

Six of the past ten Feehan winners have

won again in the coming weeks. The exceptions

include Rekindled Interest and Whobegotyou,

who were later placed in Cox Plates, and Magic

Consol who didn’t race again that year.

Four of the past five Underwood Stakes

winners have come via the Feehan including,

of course, Homesman who won last year after

finishing second in the Moonee Valley race and

he looks a superior horse in 2019.

Murray Baker and Andrew Forsman won

the 2017 Underwood with four-year-old mare

Bonneval [who’d won the Feehan] and they

saddle another four-year-old, this time male,

in The Chosen One — who looks the principal

danger to Homesman.

The follow-up form of major race winners

is something of a fascination and generally less

impressive than you might think. Examining

the two major races at Caulfield last Saturday is

interesting.

Begood Toya Mother was a fast and

spectacular winner of the Rupert Clarke Stakes

albeit with a “fired up” Iconoclasm providing

him with some unexpected cover.

Begood Toya Mother is now expected to be

spelled. Moment Of Change, a low weighted

Rupert Clarke winner like Begood Toya Mother,

is the only victor in recent memory [certainly in

the past ten years] to have had an immediate

break and he returned to run second to Black

Caviar in the Group 1 Lightning Stakes and then

went on to win a brace of Group 1 races.

Trust In A Gust and Stratum Star are the

only Rupert Clarke winners, in the past ten

years, to score again that spring - taking the

Group 1 Toorak Handicap and Group 3 Coongy

Handicap respectively.

Similarly, last weekend’s Group 3

Naturalism Stakes has produced just two

subsequent springtime winners in the past

decade; Jameka who went on to win the Group

1 Caulfield Cup and December Draw who won

the Group 1 Turnbull Stakes before failing in

the Caulfield Cup.

It’s a case of Feehan versusCraiglee in Sunday’s Underwood

Gatting SPORTPIX

Lindsey Smith has pulled off

a remarkable training feat by

managing to rejuvenate the

once retired Black Heart Bart

(Blackfriars) to win his sixth Group 1 race and

second Underwood Stakes (1800m) - three

years on from his first victory in the Caulfield

feature.

Western Australian Smith took over the

Warrnambool stables once owned by Black

Heart Bart’s disqualified trainer Darren Weir

and was asked by the horse’s owners to attempt

to resurrect the nine-year-old gelding’s career.

Smith conceded that he was not overly

confident that Black Heart Bart would make

it back to the races until an encouraging

Cranbourne barrier trial effort last month.

"Before he trialled I started to doubt, but

then he trialled well," Smith said.

"His first race was good and then his second

run was plain, but we thought getting him up to

the 1800 metres would be good as he wouldn't

be chasing all the time.

"It's a good result." Continued on page 2>>

Smith rejuvenates veteran Black Heart Bart to win second UnderwoodLongshot retiree upsets favourite Homesman in Caulfield

Group 1

MORNING BRIEFING

Dunn gets job doneon RenewalWayne Hawkes believes the key to Renewal’s

Listed win was Dwayne Dunn not panicking

despite being last and a long way off the leader

Zoustyle. "He had a terrible run in transit but

the biggest thing was Dwayne didn't panic,"

Hawkes said. "He just saved it to the last little

bit and he hit the line well." Zoustyle’s trainer

Tony Gollan was ruing the fact that his smart

sprinter missed the stakes win by such a narrow

margin. "It's a big learning curve for him. It's his

first trip away and this was his first time racing

the Melbourne way of going,” Gollan said. "I

think it's important if I can just keep him in his

right grade I can keep him progressing along.

We won't aim too high I don't think at this

stage. And I think if we come back this time

next year we're going to have a bona fide Group

1 horse." Morning Briefing page 12 >>

Black Heart Bart ($101) held off last

year's winner, the $2.50 favourite Homesman (War Front), to win by a

short neck.

Fellow Warrnambool-trained veteran Gailo Chop (Deporvito) ($26)

was one and a half lengths away in third.

The Blackfriars (Danehill) gelding ran eighth first-up in the Memsie

Stakes (Gr 1, 1400m) behind his new stablemate Scales Of Justice (Not A

Single Doubt), before running 11th in last week’s Sir Rupert Clarke Stakes

(Gr 1, 1400m) behind Begood Toya Mother (Myboycharlie).

"Even though those two runs might have looked a bit plain, he was

warming up and I've been happy with him," jockey Brad Rawiller said.

"Today, the whole way through the run I was thinking 'geez, we're

going to be in this'."

It was Black Heart Bart’s first win since the 2017 Futurity Stakes (Gr

1, 1400m). He was retired by Weir and his owners almost 12 months ago

after finishing well back in last year’s Toorak Handicap (Gr 1, 1600m).

An emotional Rawiller, the long-time rider of Black Heart Bart, was

delighted to see the gelding return to Group 1 winning form.

It also capped Rawiller’s own comeback from a broken neck which

almost ended his career, having been kept on the sidelines for nearly six

months after being seriously injured last October.

"I've won a Golden Slipper and a Caulfield Cup and I never looked like

getting teary, and I'm nearly in tears," he said.

"It's just amazing. I can't put it into words. Since coming back from my

broken neck it's been a long road.

"At the end of the day I haven't had much to look forward to as far as

rides for the spring and Black Heart Bart was always just my sole focus.

"I've been really happy with how he has been coming along.

"Last week after the Sir Rupert Clarke Stakes when I was asked about

him, I said 'he lit the fire today'. But you've still got to see it.

"I'm still overwhelmed myself, to be honest, even though I thought he

could win today."

The Valley last night.

The Chris Waller-trained gelding

harboured plenty of criticism after his last

start in the Concorde Stakes (Gr 3, 1000m)

when he failed to settle on the front end.

However, he showed he is a bona fide Group

1 horse with an impressive win in the $1

million sprint.

Ridden by James McDonald, Nature Strip

began well from the inside barrier and was able

to hold the inside advantage to eventually lead.

The track record holder over the course

and distance from last year's McEwen Stakes

(Gr 2, 1000m) Nature Strip kicked strongly

around the turn and was able to hold off a

gallant Miss Leonidas (I Am Invincible) by a

short neck. Continued on page 2>>

Everest-bound filly Sunlight (Zoustar)

closed strongly late to finish the same distance away in third with Ian

McEwen Stakes winner Faatinah (Nicconi) another short-head further

back in fourth.

Waller admitted after the race that the horse gets a lot of negative

attention, but this win might put a stop to the bad press.

"He's a popular horse," Waller joked. "We seem to get more criticism

with him than we ever got with

another certain horse [Winx]

who was probably our last Group

1 winner here.

"That's racing, everyone has

got their opinions. He's a good

horse and today he stepped away

well. James didn't panic he just

got there gradually and it was a

good race.

"You think punters get

frustrated, well owning a horse

and training a horse when you're

running in these types of races,

it's a bitter pill to take when you

don't quite get it right.

"So I think it's a good reward to everybody and I hope the punters had

something on as well and got a bit back from last start when apparently I

did everything wrong."

Waller hopes Nature Strip secures a spot in the $14 million Everest at

Randwick on October 19 and the gelding will now head to the Schillaci

Stakes (Gr 2, 1100m) at Caulfield on October 12 - the winner of that race

will represent the Melbourne Racing Club in the $14 million sprint a week

later.

"I don't think 1200 metres is a problem," Waller said. "I'd say we'll just

see what unfolds in the next few days. If he doesn't get an invite for The

Everest I guess the Schillaci Stakes is the logical choice."

Meanwhile, trainer Shaun Dwyer said Miss Leonidas ran a great race

while Sunlight's co-trainer Tony McEvoy could not hide his delight over

the mare's performance.

McEvoy said he would run Sunlight the Gilgai Stakes at Flemington,

two weeks before The Everest at Randwick.

"I'm pumped," McEvoy said. "I feel like I've won the race.

"The risk was the 1000 meters tonight and that's all that cost her the

race."

Passed in for $90,000 (reserve $120,000) at the 2016 Inglis Melbourne

Premier Yearling Sale, Nature Strip (5 g Nicconi - Strikeline by Desert Sun)

took his record to 11 wins and two placings from 18 starts for prize-money

of $1,879,285.

Eligible employers will be able to receive

and pay the JobKeeper payments to various

employee categories, including, but not limited

to:

• Employees who were employed by you as employees as at March 1, 2020;

• Employees currently employed by you (including those stood down or re-hired);

• Employees who are full-time, part-time, or long-term casuals (to get the payment for

a casual employee, they must have been employed by you on a regular basis for longer

than 12 months as at March 1, 2020); and• Employees who are not in receipt of a

JobKeeper Payment from another employer.

• Special eligibility for horse business structures with no employeesPresuming the above eligibility conditions for employers and

employees are satisfied, note below how a “nominated” employee for the

following common business structures are eligible to receive JobKeeper.

• Sole traders

The proprietor will be eligible if they do not receive JobKeeper from

another source.Another reminder: for verification purposes, businesses without

employees, such as a sole trader:• will need to provide an ABN for their business;

• nominate an individual to receive the payment;

• provide that individual’s Tax File Number; and

• provide a declaration as to the recent business activity of that business.

Sole traders are easily the most common horse structures and, as

such, it is worth sharing that if you are also employed on a wage and

would like to receive JobKeeper as a sole trader, rather than through your

employer, you can nominate yourself as the “eligible business participant”

Carrazzo Consulting Pty Ltd | Chartered Accountants - www.carrazzo.com.au

under the business participation rules and give appropriate notice to the

ATO. In this scenario, your employer cannot nominate you for JobKeeper

payments.

• PartnershipsA single partner in a partnership can be nominated. This single

partner must not be receiving JobKeeper from another source.• Trusts

A single individual beneficiary of a trust can be nominated to receive

JobKeeper payments. This individual beneficiary must not be receiving

JobKeeper from another source.The beneficiaries of a trust are outlined and defined within its trust deed.

• CompaniesA single director or shareholder of a company can be nominated.

These businesses will also receive JobKeeper payments for their other

eligible employees. This single director must not be receiving JobKeeper from another

source.

These initiatives are a step forward, but

it is noted by accounting bodies, such as CPA

Australia, that they have limitations in ensuring

equitable access to JobKeeper within trust,

partnership, and company structures. They will

recommend to government that the ‘business

participant’ test be extended to all actively

engaged persons in trusts, partnerships and

companies. For more details on JobKeeper, please refer

to our recent release titled “JobKeeper subsidy

for businesses and employees” on the Carrazzo

blog at www.carrazzo.com.au.

BY PAUL CARAZZO

Of all the recent government Covid-19 initiatives recently announced, it is generally thought that the JobKeeper payment for employers is only available to profitable horse businesses that have established employees.If you thought this was the case, read on, upon review of the recently announced JobKeeper legislation, I have some pleasant surprises for you.Below, I will work through the four common business structures and explain how it is possible for business owners that operate as sole traders or through trusts, partnerships and companies, to be eligible for JobKeeper even if their businesses are currently in losses and/or they aren’t being paid wages.

first week of May, 2020 and will be backdated to be payable from the scheme commencement of March 30, 2020. Payments under JobKeeper can be received up to September 27, 2020.• Eligible employers

All businesses who meet the turnover tests below can now register their interest with the ATO to receive the JobKeeper payment for their employees. Update to “Turnover tests” for employers All businesses (including sole traders) can now register their interest to

receive the JobKeeper payments for their employees (or themselves if sole traders) if they meet the various turnover tests. The most applicable test to the horse industry is that their turnover has been reduced by more than 30 per cent relative to a comparable period a year ago (of at least a month).

Since our original release on JobKeeper a few weeks ago, the ATO has given more details as to how to apply the “turnover test”. This is a crucial consideration for employers and is noted below.

How to calculate a fall in turnover for the first fortnight starting 30 March 2020To work out your fall in turnover, you can compare either:• GST turnover for March, 2020 with GST turnover for March, 2019• projected GST turnover for April, 2020 with GST turnover for April, 2019• projected GST turnover for the quarter starting April 2020 with GST

turnover for the quarter starting April, 2019How you choose to project your fall in turnover is not dependent on whether you report a quarterly or monthly BAS, though you can do that if it is easier.

If you work out that you qualify for the JobKeeper payments for the first fortnight because your turnover has declined by the relevant amount, you remain eligible and do not need to keep testing turnover in following months. However, you will have ongoing monthly reporting requirements. More information will be provided soon.The ATO also has the discretion to set out alternative tests that can

establish your eligibility when turnover periods are not appropriately comparable (for example, if your business has been in operation less than a year). We will provide more information soon about alternative tests.

Godolphin colt Tassort (Brazen

Beau) has been announced as

a surprise addition to Newgate

Farm’s stallion roster for 2020,

with the farm - in conjunction with partners

Emirates Park Stud - banking on the former star

juvenile’s X-factor, his top-notch pedigree and

his commercial appeal at an affordable price to

attract breeders.

Tassort, the half-brother to Group 1 winners

Alizee (Sepoy) and Astern (Medaglia D’Oro)

will stand for $11,000 (inc GST), with Newgate’s

Director of Stallions Bruce Slade admitting

that the farm is taking a chance with a colt who

appeared capable of achieving anything on the

racetrack. Continued on page 3>>

Zousain retired, to stand at Widden in 2020Zousain (Zoustar), the first ever foal from

Widden Stud’s leading young stallion Zoustar

(Northern Meteor), will join his sire on the

was announced yesterday.

Champagne Classic (Gr 2, 1200m) at

Doomben before finishing second to The

Autumn Sun (Redoute’s Choice) in the J J

Atkins (Gr 1, 1600m), Zousain’s two-year-old

Godolphin Australia managing

and fee structure presents a

balanced approach in a volatile economic

climate that will provide commercial breeders

with a variety of options and at prices that

enable them to continue to trade.

Darley’s kingpin and champion sire

Exceed And Excel (Danehill), who has

enjoyed a remarkable 12 months with his

progeny in the sales ring and on the track,

will once again spearhead the 19-strong, two-

state roster at an increased fee of $132,000 (all

inclusive of GST).

The reverse-shuttling Exceed And Excel

is the only Darley stallion to see his fee go up

this year on the back of Coolmore Stud Stakes

(registered as Ascot Vale Stakes) (Gr 1, 1200m)

own Bivouac proving successful at the highest

“The interest has been very good,

and probably better than we thought, and by design we held back on

announcing fees just because we needed to see where the market sat, see

what the appetite was and just get a feel for what the market is saying,” Cox

told ANZ Bloodstock News yesterday.

“We think we have got a relative idea on where it all sits, but those

three in particular have demanded a lot of interest at this early stage.”

While conscious of the prevailing market outlook caused by the global

pandemic, Cox said the deeds of Exceed And Excel demanded that the

rising 20-year-old’s service fee was put up from $88,000 in 2019 given his

recent achievements.

Buyers have also recognised Exceed And Excel’s consistent

performance as an elite sire, with a colt making $1.7 million at the Easter

sale last year and another son at this year’s Magic Millions Gold Coast

Yearling Sale fetching $1.8 million, the second highest-priced yearling

sold at auction in Australasia this year.

“He has got three Group 1-winning colts at the moment and two

recently retired, Microphone and Exceedance and for Bivouac, it is our

intention to race him on next season,” he said.

“Having said that, those horses are winning the proper races - the

right races - and it shows with what the horse is doing in the sale ring as

well. Exceed is a horse who can change your postcode, whether you are

racing one or if you have got one in the sale ring.

“When a horse has that sort of effect generally you expect that to be

reflected in his price and that is where we’ve moved him to.”

Darley has maintained the 2019 service fees of Victorian-based

stallions Street Boss (Street Cry) ($27,500) and Brazen Beau (I Am

Invincible) ($49,500), the leading second season sire by stakes winners

with five, in front of money-earning leader Rubick (Encosta De Lago)

(two) and Deep Field (Northern Meteor) (three).

The remainder of Darley’s stallion roster, including champion Lonhro

(Octagonal) ($66,000), Astern (Medagalia d’Oro) ($22,000), Epaulette

(Commands) ($22,000) and Harry Angel (Dark Angel) ($16,500), have all

had their service fees reduced.

“I think he’s

going to come as a little bit of a shock and a

surprise to the market that he is standing under

the Newgate banner, but he’s a horse we just felt

deserved his chance,” Slade told ANZ Bloodstock

News yesterday.

“Obviously, he raced in the Godolphin

colours and I think everyone’s first memory of the

horse is that he is that X-factor horse that was the

early favourite for the Golden Slipper. Everyone

was so excited after his debut to see where he’d

go and where he’d get to, but unfortunately, due

to injury, he was never able to fulfill the potential

that he had shown on debut.”

That debut was an electric five and a quarter

length victory in the Golden Gift (1100m) at

Rosehill in November, 2018. It was a win that saw

Tassort assume early favouritism for that season’s Golden Slipper Stakes

(Gr 1, 1200m), with form analysts rating his performance through the

roof: The Rating Bureau’s Daniel O’Sullivan declared it a “Group 1 class”

performance that was “stamped

by a sharp turn of foot, terrific late

strength and fast overall time”,

placing him in rarefied company.

Unfortunately, the colt only

raced once more, when he was

sent out as an odds-on favourite

in the Silver Slipper Stakes (Gr 2,

1100m) at Rosehill. Slow from the

stalls, he settled near the rear in an

evenly-run race, making ground

late into second but unable to reel

in Time To Reign (Time For War).

“We had key indicators

through this horse’s career that

told us he was elite and just

never had the chance to show it,”

Slade said. “We are big on time ratings and data. Daniel O’Sullivan from

The Ratings Bureau gave this guy a 103 on debut when he won. He was

impressive to the eye that day but when the time data came back, it said,

listen, this is as impressive a two-year-old debut that we’ve seen since the

likes of Estijaab and Extreme Choice. To be honest, at the time, we thought

we had a colt to be really concerned about on the racetrack, wearing our

Newgate cap!

“Obviously we never got to see that ability but on the back of that

performance, that debut, James McDonald came out and said he was the

real deal and James Cummings was very much of the same opinion, he

had a very high opinion of the horse. Everyone that had something to do

with him plus the time data suggested he had the ability to be that real

elite performer.

Slade continued: “At the end of the day, for all of us, our key criteria

for any young stallion standing at Newgate is that elite race performance.

Horses don’t have to win their Group 1s, but if they showed elite

performance, they generally are your best chance of becoming an

important stallion.

“I just feel you only have to look at the general sires list to see that. They are

either proper, proper Group 1 horses, or they were horses who had that ability but

didn’t get to showcase their true potential.
