THE REAL DEEL While the 11th hour withdrawal and retirement of G1 Cox Plate favorite Atlantic Jewel (Aus) (FastnetRock {Aus}) has no doubt cast a shadow overAustralia=s weight-for-age showpiece, the Moonee
Valley faithful could still begiven a real treat if newfavorite It=s A Dundeel (Aus)(High Chaparral {Ire}) livesup to his billing. Winner ofthe G1 Spring Champion S.in his fifth outing lastOctober, It=s A Dundeel wenton to sweep the Australian3-Year-Old Triple Crown--theGroup 1 Randwick Guineas,Rosehill Guineas andAustralian DerbyBlastseason. Fourth in his 4-year-old debut behind AtlanticJewel in the G1 Memsie S.
Aug. 31, he turned the tables on that rival with atactical victory in theG1 Underwood S. last out Sept.21. If he is to emerge victorious, It=s A Dundeel willhave to overcome a longer than expected layoff after aminor foot ailment kept him out of last weekend=s G1 Caulfield Cup, as well as a wide post in 13. Youngjockey James McDonald, who describes It=s A Dundeelas the best he=s ever ridden, is confident the colt canprove himself the best in Australia. AI have won fiveGroup 1s on him and that really gives you confidence inwhat he can do," McDonald told the Sydney MorningHerald. "It is the most confident I have been going intoa big race. When you're in a team with Murray Baker,you get a lot of confidence, and he is happy with himat the moment." Cont. p3

Cox Plate cont.
Hot on the heels of It=s A Dundeel in the betting isPuissance De Lune (Ire) (Shamardal), who justifiedantepost G1 Melbourne Cup favoritism with victories inthe G2 Blamey S. and G2 P.B. Lawrence S. earlier thisterm. He has since suffered three straight defeats,losing the G1 Makybe Diva S. Sept. 7 by the narrowestof margins before finishing seventh in the G1 Underwood S. Sept. 21. He was most recentlynailed on the wire by Happy Trails (Aus) (GoodJourney) in the G1 Turnbull S. at Flemington Oct. 5.The Gai Waterhouse-trained import Fiorente (Ire)(Monsun {Ger}) flashed his talent when second toGreen Moon (Ire) (Montjeu {Ire}) in last year=sMelbourne Cup in his Australian debut, and the 6-year-old is the current favorite to go one better Nov. 5. Inthe meantime, he has this contest to tackle, and heholds the advantage of a victory over this quirky coursein the G2 Dato=tan Chin Nam S. Sept. 14. He checkedin fourth behind Happy Trails after encountering traffictrouble in the Turnbull. Jockey Blake Shinn, who picksup the mount after intended rider Damien Oliver wassuspended for careless riding last week, partneredFiorente in a work at Moonee Valley Tuesday. AHe feltbeautiful, we just cruised around,@ Shinn toldRacenet.com.au. "It was good to have a nice feel ofhim for the first time. He=s a lovely big athletic horsewith a beautiful stride. He pulled up great, is in greatshape and right where Gai wants him.@ Super Cool(Aus) (Fastnet Rock {Aus}) holds the rare distinction ofa course-and-distance victory. The 4-year-old geldingtook the G2 Vase S. here a year ago, interestingly atthe hands of It=s A Dundeel. He recorded his first top-level victory in the G1 Australian Derby Mar. 9, andalthough he is yet to win since, he has been twice-placed in top company this season, most recentlyfinishing third in the G1 Caulfield S. Oct. 12. JockeyKerrin McEvoy has gone down to 109 pounds tomaintain the ride on Darley=s G1 Caulfield Guineaswinner Long John (Aus) (Street Cry {Ire}), and both heand trainer Peter Snowden will be hoping theirsophomore can erase the Cox Plate memories of theirlast Guineas winner, Helmet (Aus) (Exceed and Excel{Aus}), who failed to complete the double when eighthof 14 in 2011. Three-year-olds have a spotty record inthis race, being victorious on just three occasions in thelast 20 years and, like It=s A Dundeel, Long John willhave to navigate a wide draw.

BLACK CAVIAR IN FOAL Black Caviar (Aus) (Bel Esprit {Aus}), Australia=sstandout 15-time Group 1-winning sprinter, has beenconfirmed in foal to Exceed and Excel (Aus), accordingto published reports. Breeder Rick Jamieson made theannouncement during the unveiling of a statue in the 7-year-old=s honor in Victoria, Australia yesterday. BlackCaviar, who won all 25 of her career starts includingRoyal Ascot=s G1 Diamond Jubilee S., concluded hercareer with a victory in the G1 T.J. Smith S. atRandwick Apr. 13. She amassed earnings ofA$7,953,936. Exceed and Excel, who is based atDarley=s Kelvinside Farm in the Hunter Valley andshuttles to that operation=s Dalham Hall Stud inNewmarket, England, was Australia=s champion sire of2012-13, and is responsible for such Group 1 winnersas Excelebration (Ire), Helmet (Aus), Margot Did (Ire),Overreach (Aus) and Guelph (Aus). His 2013 fee isA$88,000.
LUCKY AND READY Samaready (Aus) (More Than Ready), winner of lastyear=s G1 Blue Diamond S., has rewarded the patienceof her connections with two resounding victories thisseason, and she goes postward as the heavy favorite intoday=s G1 Manikato S. at Moonee Valley in Melbourne,Australia. The 4-year-old, who carries the silks of partowner Vinery Stud, went undefeated through her firstfour outings as a juvenile, including the Blue Diamond,G3 Blue Diamond Prelude and G2 Reisling S. beforefinishing third behind Pierro (Aus) (Lonhro {Aus}) inAustralia=s juvenile showpiece, the G1 Golden Slipper.An injury later that year put Samaready on the sidelinesfor more than a 12 months, but she showed no rustwhen clinching the G3 Theshark.com.au S. at trainerMick Price=s Caulfield base Aug. 31, and devastated herrivals over this track-and-trip in the G1 Moir S. Sept. 27. Second that day was the ever-consistent 6-year-old gelding Buffering (Aus) (Mossman {Aus}),who has won or hit the board in 26 of 35 careeroutings--including seven wins over this trip--and wasracing off 111 day=s rest in the Moir.
An unlucky sixth in the Moir was Bel Sprinter (Aus)(Bel Esprit {Aus}), who hit his best form last seasonwhen victorious in the G1 Galaxy S. and third behindBlack Caviar (Aus) (Bel Esprit {Aus}) in the G1 T.J.Smith S. The Jason Warren charge was making his firststart since finishing second in the G1 KrisFlyerInternational Sprint at Kranji in Singapore May 19. Thatevent was won by the globetrotting Lucky Nine (Ire)(Dubawi {Ire}), who makes his Australian debut and hisfirst start since that victory here. Winner of the G1 Hong Kong International Sprint in 2011, the 7-year-old last year added the G1 Queen=s Silver Jubilee Cupand G2 Jockey Club Sprint to his mantle, and has thisyear indicated he is nowhere near finished, collectingSha Tin=s G1 Chairman=s Sprint Prize Feb. 17 prior tohis Kranji victory. Seven of Lucky Nine=s 12 victorieshave come over this trip, although he will have to bucka trend that has seen him go 0-for-4 first up.Shamexpress (NZ) (O=Reilly {NZ}) returns to theAustralian turf off a failed British campaign earlier thisyear. Victorious in the G1 Newmarket H. when lastseen Down Under Mar. 9, the Danny O=Brien chargecould manage no better than ninth in the G1 King=sStand S. at Royal Ascot June 18, and seventh in theG1 July Cup. The 6-year-old mare Arinosa (Aus) (DashFor Cash {Aus}) seems to be improving with age, risingfrom the handicap ranks to claim the G2 Sapphire S.and G3 Park S. earlier this year. She was a first-upwinner of the G2 Premiere S. at Randwick Oct. 5, andlooks to win a Group 1 at the first attempt at a distanceshe enjoys.

The second-highest price of the day was thei45,000 paid by George Mullins for hip 530, a Paniscolt from Haras de Cordelles. Already named SpectacleAttendu (Fr), he is a sibling of three winners, includingthe 2011 Listed Prix Hampton victor Spectacle du Mars(Fr) (Martillo {Ger}), and is from the family of the 2000G1 Prix Marcel Boussac heroine Amonita (GB) (Anabaa).At the close of trade, Arqana=s Eric Hoyeaucommented, AActivity was sustained throughout thefour days, and the record percentage of horses sold of82.7% is the figure which best illustrates this dynamic.Buyers, even more numerous this year, very muchcame forward hailing largely from Europe, but also fromQatar, and even from Russia. We would mostparticularly like to thank French trainers who came fromall over France to buy their new recruits. We wish themevery success with their purchases and very much hopethey might have champions of the ilk of Treve or Vordaon their hands. The analysis of our first three yearlingsales, which have been stamped with a record turnoverand a much improved number of yearlings soldcompared to last year, is very encouraging for breeders,which have every reason for being very confident in thefuture. We once again were able to note that theyearling market is very much dependent upon the offer;it is therefore very much the quality of the individualsthat makes the difference and leads to such goodresults.@ Catalogue and full results are available atwww.arqana.com.

BRIDGET OPPENHEIMER DIESBy James Trotter Bridget Oppenheimer, a leading Thoroughbred ownerand breeder in South Africa for over 40 years, haspassed away at the age of 92. Mrs. Oppenheimer wasone of the great icons of South African racing, and wasaffectionately referred to as "Queen" or "Queen Mum"of South African Racing. Bridget's late husband, HarryOppenheimer, was one of the world's wealthiest men,and was chairman of both De Beers and AngloAmerican Corporation for over a quarter of a century.Together Harry and Bridget shared a love of horseracing and bred horses since 1945 at theirMauritzfontein Stud, based near Kimberley in SouthAfrica. The couple owned a number of successfulracehorses and together won Africa's greatest race, theG1 Durban July, on four occasions, the first of these in1959 with Tiger Fish (SAf) and most recently withSpanish Galliard (SAf) in 1992. Since Harry's passing inAugust 2000, Bridget has gone on to win the DurbanJuly on a further two occasions, with Greys Inn andHunting Tower (SAf). Greys Inn would later representMrs. Oppenheimer in Grade I races in Dubai, Hong Kongand Australia, including a run in the G1 Melbourne Cup.The twilight years of Bridget Oppenheimer's racinginvolvement would arguably be her greatest,predominantly through the success of her stallion FortWood. Imported in 1994 from France, Fort Wood hassired three Horses of the Year and has been ChampionSire in South Africa on two occasions. His very firstrunner was Horse Chestnut (SAf), the best horse theOppenheimers would ever own, and arguably the besthorse in South African history. Horse Chestnut wouldwin the South African Triple Crown and the G1 J&BMet--the country=s second biggest race--by 8 lengths.He was shipped to the U.S. in 2000 where he won theGIII Broward H. by six lengths on his American debutbefore breaking down prepping for the GI Donn H. andG1 Dubai World Cup. Mrs. Oppenheimer's final year ofracing ended on a high with her filly Cherry on the Top(SAf) winning the Triple Tiara and being crowned SouthAfrican Champion 3-Year-Old Filly. Mrs. BridgetOppenheimer, together with her husband Harry, will godown as all time greats of the sport of horse racing.
CORRECTION: GI Breeders’ Cup Distaff hopeful Beholder (HennyHughes) was bred by Clarkland Farm and sold by her breeder for$180,000 to B. Wayne Hughes’s Spendthrift Farm at KeenelandSeptember in 2011. We regret the error.
Barry Irwin=s two-part Q and A with Louis Romanetand Jim Gagliano, et al. provides a welcome overviewof our progress (or rather our lack of progress)regarding the regulation of medications. For me, themost important question was asked by Mr. Romanet:AIt=s clear that a sport with [performance enhancing]medication today is unacceptable in any other sports federation around the world. Why should it not be thecase for horses?@ Regarding Lasix, we find ourselves at an impasse onregulating its use in America. The current situationshows that attempts to regulate Lasix have met withbureaucratic obstacles and intense resistance fromAmerican trainers. The Jockey Club has no power ofenforcement and the Breeders= Cup has waffled andcapitulated on previously announced restrictions.Basically, there is no real sheriff in Dodge. Perhaps,therefore, it is time to look for another approach. But,let=s first follow the money.

Trainers have a Arevenue dilemma.@ Generally, theywant to use Lasix because it benefits their revenuestream. Although their arguments for the necessity ofLasix are couched in terms of what is Agood for thehorse,@ it is obvious that it is also good for the trainer.Instead of time off for a known bleeder, they can givethe horse Lasix and continue charging the owner dailytraining fees and possibly collect another check fromracing the horse. By using Lasix in training and on raceday, the trainer=s revenue stream is rarely interruptedunless a significant injury requires a lay-up. Additionally,by using Lasix they are getting an edge over those whodo not use Lasix. Thus, the permissive use of Lasix also creates aAcompetitive dilemma@ for the vast majority of trainerswhen their horse is not a bleeder. Given theacknowledged performance enhancing benefit of Lasixand the fact that virtually all other horses in a race areon Lasix (whether or not they are true bleeders), atrainer has little choice but to use Lasix if they want tocompete on a level playing field. Even though they maybe setting up their horse up for fewer career starts due to the effects of chronic dehydration, they are at leaston equal footing in the race at hand if they too useLasix. From my perspective, the root problem to overcomeappears to be the economic impact for the trainer andthe owner. As attempts at regulation have largely failedthus far, let=s take a stab at an alternative approach andpossibly solve the revenue and competitive issuessurrounding the use of Lasix. Rather than continue seemingly futile attempts forcompulsory phase-out of race-day meds, one possiblyeffective approach would be to address the moneyissue directly and provide a form of revenue incentivesfor trainers and owners for not using Lasix.
Here are some initial suggestions for an interim perioduntil we can eliminate the inequities caused by use ofLasix. 1. For all races in America, including the Breeders=Cup, allow up to 10 pounds in weight allowance forhorses running without Lasix. The Jockey Club willdetermine the actual weight allowance which may varyby age, gender and race specifics. We already employthis approach in order to level the playing fieldregarding use of inexperienced jockeys and in havingvarious weight-for-age and gender race conditions. 2. For Breeders= Cup stallion nominations, deeplydiscount the nominating fee for any stallion that won orplaced in all of his graded stakes races without the useof Lasix. 3. For Breeders= Cup foal nominations, deeplydiscount the nominating fee for any foal that is sired bya stallion that won or placed in all of his graded stakesraces without the use of Lasix. While we wait for race-day meds to be finallyeliminated nationwide, these potential revenueincentives for trainers, owners and breeders will createheightened awareness of the issue and may have animmediate and positive impact on the over-use of Lasix.

Sept. 1, hewas most recently fifth in the GI Jamaica H. here Oct.5. Shaking clear hitting the backside after what lookedlike a potentially contested pace failed to materialize,the dark bay looked to be getting away as he turned forhome. North Slope, meanwhile, last for most of therace, was trying desperately to find running room whilefull of run.

While champion My Miss Aurelia (Smart Strike) wasforced to miss this race and instead point straight forthe Nov. 29 GII Go For Wand H. after shedding a frogearlier in the week, fellow Todd Pletcher pupil GallopingGiraffe proved a worthy stand in. The latter graduatedat second asking for a $65,000 tag in a one-mile off-the-turfer June 14, and came with a late bid to besecond in a nine-furlong Saratoga allowance July 31.She was very far back before checking in fourth behindPrincess of Sylmar (Majestic Warrior) in the GI AlabamaS. Aug. 17, and was last seen finishing a distantsecond to today=s Belle Cherie S. favorite WeddingToast (Street Sense) in a Sept. 11 optional claimer ateight furlongs. Completely devoid of early speed asClassic Point bowled along on an uncontested lead, thechestnut entered the picture leaving the far turn, butstill had plenty left to do.

AGA KHAN SOPHOMORES LIGHT UP GOFOCT Two offerings from His Highness The Aga Khan=sever-popular draft, Timikar (Dynaformer) and Zand (Ire)(Zamindar), lit up yesterday=s Goffs Open Yearling andHorses-in-Training sale when both selling for six-figuresums as darkness fell. Despite those high-profile tradesand an increased offering of 30% more head than lastyear, the clearance rate went down and the saleaggregate advanced just 13%. As a consequence, theaverage suffered a 9.6% downturn, and the medianalso slipped back by 15.6%. Sent up as hip 254 by John Oxx=s Currabeg Stables,Timikar is out of the 2007 G3 Denny Cordell &Lanwades Stud Fillies S. victress Timarwa (Ire) (Daylami{Ire}), and shed maiden status at Roscommon in just hissecond start last month. He was knocked down toHubie de Burgh=s opening bid of i225,000 and isbound for an Australian campaign. AHe=s a lightly racedand beautiful colt,@ de Burgh told Racing Post.ADynaformer has done very well in Australia and hisstock tend to get better with age.@ Stablemate andfellow 3-year-old Zand broke through at Leopardstownlast October, but has failed to make an impact in threesubsequent black-type starts, including a last-out fifthin this month=s Listed Finale S. at the Curragh. Offeredas hip 257, he went the way of Emerald Bloodstock=sPeter Kelly for i100,000. AI=ve bought him for a Swissbusinessman and the plan is for him to be campaignedon the Flat in Ireland,@ Kelly told Racing Post. Earlier inthe day, a Holy Roman Emperor colt, presented as hip104 by John Tuthill=s Owenstown Stud, topped theyearling section of the sale when acquired by renownedpinhooker Willie Browne=s Cloran Bloodstock fori30,000. Out of an unraced sibling of North Americanstakes winners Nymphenburg (San Romano) and LaHabitant Time (Iskandar Elakbar), the April-foaled bayalso hails from the family of Hawk Wing, and is slatedto reappear in one of next year=s Breeze-Up catalogues.AHe=s a very nice colt and he=s some walker,@ Brownetold Racing Post. AHe looks a sharp sort, but still hassome strengthening up to do. Let=s hope he=s fast.@

Goffs Chief Executive Henry Beeby commented:A2013 is proving to be some year for Goffs and theunconventional turned up again today as agent Hubiede Burgh, acting for an Australian client, secured thetop price with a single bid of i225,000 when buyingThe Aga Khan=s Timikar. That represents the highestprice at this sale since 2006 and demonstrates yetagain that we will get the best prices when we havethe horses in this category. It is a source of frustrationthat we are only able to attract a catalogue of just over100 horses in training when so many Irish entries willcross the Irish Sea next week, especially when we havereturned such good prices, as the top lot was backedup by Zand who realised i100,000. The Open YearlingSale is the lowest cost outlet for breeders in terms ofentry fee and is provided as a service to the industry. Aclearance rate of two thirds tells the story, but we sawa lively trade for those the market deemed mostcommercial with buyers from Russia, the UK, Poland,Italy, The Middle East and the like doing battle with theBreeze-Up pinhookers so that nothing slipped throughthe net.@ Catalogue and full results are available atwww.goffs.com

REVVING UP It=s six weeks to the International Races, whichmeans all the heavy hitters begin to emerge from thewoodwork in Hong Kong in a pair of handicap prepsthis weekend. Reigning Horse of the Year MilitaryAttack (Ire) (Oratorio {Ire}) kicks off the season as the133-pound highweight in the Sha Tin Trophy H. at a1600-meter distance likely too sharp for him to win,particularly first-up, but designed to get him to the G2Jockey Club Cup Nov. 17. The 5-year-old was arevelation last year, closing his season with fourstraight wins, including a 1 3/4-length defeat ofCalifornia Memory (Highest Honor {Fr}) the G1 QueenElizabeth II Cup Apr. 28 ahead of a 3 1/4-lengthsuccess from stablemate Dan Excel (Ire) (Shamardal) inthe G1 Singapore Airlines International Cup May 18.AI=m sure he=s going to run well on the weekend, buteveryone has to understand that the grand final is inDecember and whatever he does on the weekend he=sgoing to improve into the Jockey Club Cup and fromthat trial into the Hong Kong Cup,@ trainer John Mooreassured. Richard Gibson saddles a pair of progressivetypes in Hong Kong Derby hero Akeed Mofeed (GB)(Dubawi {Ire}) and Gold-Fun (Ire) (Le Vie dei Colori{GB}). The former, an expensive private purchase, wassomewhat disappointing when fifth in the QE II and hasa tightener under his belt this term, a one-paced ninthbehind Gold-Fun in the National Day Cup H. over 1400meters Oct. 1. Akeed Mofeed should improve for thatrun and for this one, and he is likely to follow the samepath to international day as Military Attack. FrederickEngels (GB) (Iceman {GB}) is the marquee name in thePremier Bowl H., in which he will tote the high weight.Runner-up in a pair of domestic Group 1s last winter,including a narrow defeat at the hands of the classyLucky Nine (Ire) (Dubawi {Ire}), he was sent to Meydanfor the G1 Dubai Golden Shaheen, but nothing wentright and he trudged home in eighth. Frederick Engelsexits a second in the Sha Tin Sprint Trophy H. up the1000-meter straight Oct. 1.
