HOLLENDORFER GETS 7,000TH CAREER WINBy Tom LaMarra
Hall of Fame trainer Jerry Hollendorfer, 69, won his
7,000th race when Kiss N Scat, whom he co-owns
with Steve Taub, Steve Melen, and George Todaro,
won the first race at Golden Gate Fields Nov. 26. Hol-
lendorfer ranks third on the all-time list of trainers by
wins behind the late Dale Baird and Steve Asmussen.
Kiss N Scat, a 2-year-old Scat Daddy filly, easily
captured the entry-level one-mile allowance event by
13 lengths under jockey Ricardo Gonzalez and paid
$2.20 to win as the heavy favorite.
"I'm very grateful to be able to do something like
this," Hollendorfer said. "I've had a lot of good people
help me. I want to thank the horses, the owners, and
the help I've had. All of my staff, including (my wife)
Janet, have done such a good job. They're the people
who do most of the work."
Hollendorfer trains the undefeated Songbird,
winner of the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies (gr. I) and
probable 2015 champion 2-year-old filly. BH

GREEN GRATTO STUNS FALL HIGHWEIGHTBy Evan Hammonds
Green Gratto, the longest-priced horse on
the board at 24-1, took six accomplished
sprinters gate to finish in Aqueduct's traditional
Thanksgiving Day feature, the Fall Highweight
Handicap (gr. III). The New Jersey-bred son of
Here's Zealous got the six furlongs in 1:09.95
after setting fractions of :22.29 and :44.71 under
Kendrick Carmouche.
Rubber-legged late, Green Gratto held off the
late surge of multiple grade I winner Palace to win
by a head and earn his first stakes victory. Fabu-
lous Kid rallied outside for third.
Bred by Kaz Hill Farm, Green Gratto is trained
by Gaston Grant and owned by Grant and Anthony
Grant. The 5-year-old horse finished second in the
Carter Handicap (gr. I) and third in the Tom Fool
Handicap (gr. III) earlier this year.
The race was likely the final run for a pair of
stellar New York-breds: Palace will soon join the
stallion roster at Spendthrift Farm, and four-time
grade II winner La Verdad will likely become a
broodmare for owner Sheila Rosenblum. BH
LATEST HEADLINES FROM BLOODHORSE.COMHEART TO HEART WIRE TO WIRE IN RIVER CITY Terry Hamilton's Heart to Heart bounced back from a 10th-place finish in the Shadwell Turf Mile (gr. IT) to win the $100,000 River City Handicap (gr. IIIT) at Churchill Downs Nov. 26.
INVADERS POISED TO HAVE IMPACT IN JAPAN CUP A field of 18 is set for the Nov. 29 Japan Cup (Jpn-I), with the foreign contingent showing promise against a home team generally regarded as slightly less imposing than usual for a Japan Cup.
CONTROL STAKE TOO TOUGH IN THANKSGIVING 'CAP Maggi Moss' Control Stake, the lone 3-year-old in the field, got the jump on the competition from the gate and wasn't headed en route to a solid win in the $60,000 Thanksgiving Handicap at Fair Grounds Race Course & Slots Nov. 26.
HARD NOT TO LIKE SEEKS FOURTH GRADE I Hard Not to Like has been quite the traveler in her four-year career, racing at eight different racetracks and winning at five, and the gray mare will look to add another to her list in the Nov. 29 Matriarch (gr. IT).
ANDREYA'S REWARD SHIFTS TO DIRT FOR HUT HUT After four starts on grass to open her career, N.T.S. Stable and Kathryn Davey's Andreya's Reward will try dirt for the first time in the $75,000 Hut Hut Stakes Nov. 28 at Gulfstream Park West.

THE PIZZA MAN SCORES IN TURF CUPBy Lenny Shulman
Let loose approaching the final turn, Midwest Thor-
oughbreds' homebred The Pizza Man launched a
devastating run and though eight-wide in the lane,
inhaled the competition for an easy score in Del
Mar's $250,000 Hollywood Turf Cup Stakes (gr. IIT)
Nov. 26
The even-money favorite, The Pizza Man (English
Channel—I Can Fan Fan, by Lear Fan) avenged his
third-place finish in last year's race as well as his fifth
in the Breeders' Cup Turf (gr. IT) at Keeneland.
Running on firm ground for the first time in his
last five races, the Illinois-bred 6-year-old gelding
overcame soft fractions while racing near the back
of the pack. Class Leader and Southern Freedom ran
the first six furlongs in 1:17.28, and The Pizza Man hit
the wire after 12 in 2:31.75.
Local California runner Big John B settled for
second. Power Foot claimed the show spot. The Pizza
Man, winner of this season's Arlington Million (gr. IT),
won for the fourth time in six 2015 starts. BH

AHH CHOCOLATE CAPTURES FALLS CITYBy Tom LaMarra
Stoneway Farm's Ahh Chocolate continued to show
her fondness for the Churchill Downs
dirt with a comfortable victory in the Falls
City Handicap (gr. II) Nov. 26. It was the
first stakes win for the 3-year-old Candy
Ride filly trained by Neil Howard.
The complexion of the Falls City
changed dramatically a few hours be-
forehand when Frivolous, last year's win-
ner, was scratched because of a tendon
injury. She has been retired and will be
bred in 2016, according to trainer Victo-
ria Oliver.
In her last start Ahh Chocolate finished
second in the one-mile Chiliukki Stakes
(gr. II) at Churchill, and in September she
won a second-level allowance race at the
Kentucky track. In her only other start
at the 1 1/8-mile Falls City distance, Ahh
Chocolate finished third in Pimlico's Black-
Eyed Susan Stakes (gr. II) in May.

ACTIVE TRADING FOR TATTERSALLS DAY 3By Carl Evans
Paul Thorman of England's Trickledown Stud,
one of the sagest men in the world of wean-
lings, provided a telling summary of trade as the
Tattersalls December foal sale completed its Nov.
26 session.
"Last year if a horse had a hole in it, you
dropped down a level to get started; this year you
won't get started," said Thorman. His comments
came as the clearance rate fell again—a theme at
Ireland's recent Goffs foal sale—yet the average
rose. Demand for the good ones is strong, but the
market is selective.
Day 3 proof was the 14 foals that brought
100,000 guineas ($149,630) or more compared
with five last year. The day's session-topper, a
Shamardal colt bought by Darley's John Ferguson
for 240,000 guineas ($359,112), aided a 4% in-
crease in gross to 8,576,000 guineas ($12,832,268),
even though 17 more horses were offered. The
average rose 5% at 36,650 guineas ($54,839) but
clearance fell 7% to 79%.
The Nov. 27 session is the strongest. Will end
users and pinhookers up their game to reverse the
declining buy-back rate? BH

Waller, with 120 in training at Rosehill
Gardens, sent out his first group I winner in
2008. He has been Sydney's champion train-
er the last five seasons, including 2012-13
with a record 167.5 metropolitan winners,
seven of which won nine group I races. BH
GROUP I WINS KEEP COMING FOR WALLERBy Myra Lewyn
Less than four months into Australia's 2015-16
racing season, 10 of the first 33 of Australia's 72
group I races have been won by nine horses trained
by Sydney-based Chris Waller.
Arriving in Sydney from New Zealand in 2000,
Waller has been Australia's champion trainer by
group I wins in recent years, including a record 14
with 13 individual runners for the 2014-15 season.
He appears poised to surpass that mark.
Overall, Waller has won 57 group I races, and
in October bolstered his record by landing one of
Australia's top four races—Melbourne Cup, Caulfield
Cup, W.S. Cox Plate, and Golden Slipper—for the
first time when the Street Cry filly Winx smashed the
Moonee Valley course record in the Cox Plate.

A FEW QUESTIONS WITH DAN METZGERBy Tom LaMarra
Today's MarketWatch interview is with Dan
Metzger, president of the Thoroughbred
Owners and Breeders Association, who discuss-
es major issues currently impacting owners and
breeders.
Blood-Horse Daily: What role could owners
and breeders play in improving the economics
of the business?
Dan Metzger: Thoroughbred owners and
breeders invest billions of dollars in our sport,
yet they face a tenuous economic model that
does not project financial growth and a reason-
able return on investment. Part of this is due to
an over-reliance on pari-mutuel betting as the
primary revenue stream to fund purses. While
expanded gaming has enhanced purses in a
number of regions, most of us recognize this
source of revenue remains dangerously exposed,
as demonstrated by casino-based purse reduc-
tions in Ontario, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia.
Other sports have diversified and expanded
their revenue sources over the last 50 years, and as
a result they have become very successful. Owners
and breeders must become much more involved in
the development of additional revenue sources to
supplement the current purse structure, which in
its current form is disproportionate to the costs of
buying and training Thoroughbreds. In addition, the
rising costs of stud fees and high number of mares
bred per stallion are contributing factors affecting
the commercial sales market.
BHD: What are some of the structural issues
that hinder the industry's growth?
DM: Our sport lacks a clearly defined expan-
sion strategy, not only for the present but for
future generations as well. This is a tremendous
challenge. Our existing governance structure—
or lack thereof—does not allow us to set a stra-
tegic direction. The future sustainability of our
industry is at risk, as seen in recent years with
racetracks closing, declining attendance, and
our inability to market Thoroughbred racing to a
new generation of potential owners and fans.
The competition for the sports and enter-
tainment dollar is an enormous challenge in the
current climate, and the negative media percep-
tion directly influences our economic issues. For
those of us within the industry, we clearly un-
derstand our assets, as well as our liabilities, but
unfortunately the non-racing media coverage
has often been based on perception and not
always reality. We need more racehorse owners
in the sport as well as an increased fan base, but
without significant changes in these areas, our
challenges will be much more daunting.
BHD: How important is uniformity in regula-
tion and what must be done to achieve it?
DM: Owners want a level playing field, specif-
ically through uniformity in every racing jurisdic-
tion with a centralized approach toward one set
of medication rules. They want a stringent set of
rules with appropriate penalties for the wrongdo-
ers and the most robust and effective drug testing
in the world, both pre- and post-race. The uncer-
tainty of our drug policies and practices hampers
sustainable growth for the sport, and continued
fragmentation will only lead to a further decline
in the business of racing. We must address these
issues with a collaborative approach in order to
maximize the unique and limitless opportunities
presented to us by the Thoroughbred. BH
