TYROS IN FAMILIAR STYLE
Thursday=s G3 Japan Racing Association Tyros S. lost a
potential major player after Jessie Harrington deemed the
ground too fast for the likely favourite Cadillac (Ire) (Lope de
Vega {Ire}) and with the surface slick at Leopardstown it was a
front-runner who prevailed in Military Style (War Front). This
year more than any other it seems that the Foxrock venue is
favouring those on the front end when the going is riding as it
was here, but such is the blueblooded nature of the winner it is
dangerous to argue that he will not turn out ultimately the best.
As he clung on by a neck from his deeply promising stablemate
Van Gogh (American Pharoah), the son of the 2014 G1 Fillies=
Mile heroine Together Forever (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) who is in turn
a full-sister to the G1 Epsom Oaks heroine Forever Together
(Ire), brought up a 14th edition for Aidan O=Brien. Not given an
easy time under Emmet McNamara, the 7-1 shot saw off all-
comers for a game score as the 4-1 favourite Masen (GB)
(Kingman {GB}) made it a tight finale just half a length away.
Military Style, who had beaten the subsequently listed-placed
Eastern Voice (Ire) (Vocalised) on debut over six furlongs at Naas
June 20 before looking in need of this extra furlong when third
in the G3 Marble Hill S. at Cork July 5, was not surprising those
closest to him.
AIt was a very good run first time and they usually improve
plenty for their first start, then he was beaten only a length in
the Marble Hill so he was entitled to have a chance,@ McNamara
said of War Front=s 50th graded/group winner. Cont. p2

G3 Tyros S. Cont. from p1
The jockey added, AHe=s improved for the step up to seven and
it=s beautiful fast racing ground which suited him. The plan was
to go forward and if I found him in front to go on, as he had the
experience and we went a good even pace. He toughed it out
well and is very genuine. He=s not short of pace, but a mile
shouldn=t be a problem as he relaxes.@
Pedigree Notes Together Forever is making a fast impact at Coolmore, with
this breakthrough second foal following the Listed
Leopardstown 2000 Guineas Trial runner-up King of Athens also
by War Front. Sent back to him again to produce another colt in
2019, she has since visited Justify twice and has thrown a colt
this year. The aforementioned Forever Together captured the
Oaks two years ago and her and the dam are half-sisters to the
sire Lord Shanakill (Speightstown) who captured the G1 Prix
Jean Prat, G2 Lennox S. and G2 Mill Reef S., and full-sisters to
the listed-placed i3.2million 2018 Goffs Orby-topping Do You
Love Me (Ire). The third dam is the influential Chain Fern
(Blushing Groom {Fr}), an unraced full-sister to the G1 Irish 1000
Guineas heroine and broodmare supreme Al Bahathri. With his
pedigree, Military Style could be one to reap dividends across
the Atlantic as a relative of the GI Yellow Ribbon S. winner
Spanish Fern (El Gran Senor) and GI Santa Anita H. hero
Heatseeker (Ire) (Giant=s Causeway).

SHALE DOMINATES ANOTHER O=BRIEN SHOW Donnacha O=Brien=s instant momentum showed no sign of
stopping on Thursday as the sole Galileo (Ire) in the G3 Frank
Conroy Silver Flash S. line-up Shale (Ire) flew the flag for the
newest of the family=s prodigies at Leopardstown. Having won a
mile maiden on slow ground at Gowran Park July 8, the
daughter of the runaway G1 1000 Guineas heroine Homecoming
Queen (Ire) (Holy Roman Emperor {Ire}) was positioned in a
clear second early by under up-and-coming riding star Gavin
Ryan. Sent past the weakening race animator Finest (Ire) (The
Gurkha {Ire}) approaching the furlong pole, the
generously-priced 14-1 shot had first run on TDN Rising Star
Pretty Gorgeous (Fr) (Lawman {Fr}), and, with stamina assured,
galloped relentlessly to record a 1 1/2-length success. That 2-1
favourite was completing a forecast for the O=Brien brothers
Donnacha and Joseph, with A Ma Chere (Ire) (Kodiac {GB})
finishing well adrift 3 1/2 lengths back in third.
AShe=s a lovely filly and I=m very grateful that connections let
me keep the ride,@ commented Ryan, the Co. Tipperary-born
five-pound claimer. AShe had won her maiden nicely on slow
ground and our only worry was the quicker ground today, but
she=s a very versatile filly with a lot of class. She travelled into
the race well and stayed on gamely. Donnacha said to make sure
we were up and forward, as she has a wicked high cruising
speed and she=s probably a miler ideally. I think that was a good
race and I know Joseph thinks his is a classy filly.@
Joseph said of the runner-up, AIt was a fantastic run and the
first two pulled clear--I suppose something like the Debutante
makes sense.@
Shale, who was sixth on debut in the course-and-distance
maiden in which the subsequent G3 Marble Hill S. winner
Minaun (Ire) (Zoffany {Ire}) was second June 21, had taken her
Gowran maiden by 3 1/4 lengths last time and is a filly with
limitless potential given her outstanding pedigree.
Donnacha was on hand to say, AShe had improved plenty from
her maiden and her work was good--the race worked out nicely,
as they went a good gallop and she got a nice tow into it. To look
at her, you would say she wants quick ground so I was a bit
surprised how well she handled it the last day. Joseph likes his
filly a lot and obviously it=s quick enough out there and not easy
to make up ground, So I=d say they are two smart fillies. We=ll
look at the [G2] Debutante and the [G1] Moyglare. It would be
the obvious path with those two-year-old fillies.@ Cont. p3

Shale | Racingfotos.com
Pedigree Notes In the pre-Serpentine era, Homecoming Queen was one of the
first examples of what her trainer could do with slow learners as
she took eight starts to break her maiden before going to
Newmarket and winning the 2012 renewal of the mile Classic by
nine lengths. Bred solely to Galileo, Shale is her third black-type
performer and her best after the stakes-placed First of Spring
(Ire) and G2 Futurity S. third Berkeley Square (Ire). She is a
daughter of Lagrion (Diesis {GB}), which makes her a half-sister
to the former Ballydoyle great Dylan Thomas (Ire), the juvenile
champion Queen=s Logic (Ire) (Grand Lodge) and Remember
When (Ire) (Danehill Dancer {Ire}) who was promoted to second
in the 2010 G1 Epsom Oaks.
Remember When has produced five black-type winners all by
Galileo headed by the aforementioned G1 Epsom Derby hero
Serpentine (Ire) and Wedding Vow (Ire) who captured the G2
Kilboy Estate S. and was runner-up in the G1 Nassau S. Queen=s
Logic, whose unbeaten career was cut short by injury, has
produced the G2 Diadem S. and G2 Lowther S. winner and G1
Prix de l=Abbaye de Longchamp and G1 Haydock Sprint Cup
runner-up Lady of the Desert (Rahy) who is in turn the dam of
Queen Kindly (GB) (Frankel {GB}) who also took the Lowther.
Homecoming Queen=s 2019 Galileo offering is a colt.

JACK=S BACK Nickajack Cave (Ire) (Kendargent {Fr}) had already served
notice that he was an improved performer when beating the
subsequent G3 Vintage Crop S. and G2 Curragh Cup winner
Twilight Payment (Ire) (Teofilo {Ire}) in the 14-furlong Listed
Saval Beg Levmoss S. at Leopardstown June 14 and the grey also
advertised his versatility when returning to that venue to add
Thursday=s G3 Bahrain International Ballyroan S. to his tally over
a mile and a half. Representing David Spratt, Sean Jones and
Lynne Lyons, the 15-8 favourite stalked the leader Fresnel (GB)
(Sea the Stars {Ire}) under Gary Carroll and when after earning
the advantage with 150 yards remaining kept on to secure a
half-length success, with 3/4 of a length back to Mythical (Fr)
(Camelot {GB}) in third.
AHe=s improving all the time,@ Shane Lyons said. AHe=s in the
[G1] Irish St Leger and that will be his ultimate goal. AHe would
appreciate a bit more juice in the ground, but got away with that
no problem.@
Pedigree Notes Also third in the 12 1/2-furlong Listed Martin Molony S. at
Limerick in October and fourth on his return in the 10-furlong
Listed Devoy S. at Naas Mar. 23, Nickajack Cave is the first foal
out of the unraced Could You Be Loved (Ire) (Montjeu {Ire}),

ALPINE STAR EYEING DEAUVILLE DATE G1 Coronation S. winner Alpine Star (Ire) (Sea The Moon
{Ger}), last seen finishing a short-neck second to Fancy Blue (Ire)
(Deep Impact {Jpn}) in the G1 Prix de Diane on July 5, could
resurface in the G1 Prix Jacques le Marois at Deauville on
Aug. 16 if ground conditions play to her liking.
AIf all goes according to plan she could go to Deauville, but we
just need to keep an eye on the ground,@ said Alan Cooper,
racing manager to owner/breeder The Niarchos Family. AThere=s
very hot weather forecast, but then there could be
thunderstorms, so we=ll watch out for that. Her form appears
very strong, with Fancy Blue winning again at Goodwood. The
3-year-old fillies appear to be very strong this year which is
exciting, it=s good for racing.@
The Niarchos Family could yet have another major player in
the division in Albigna (Ire), also from the yard of Jessica
Harrington. The daughter of Zoffany (Ire) went into winter
quarters with hopes high off a win in the G1 Prix Marcel
Boussac, but has only been seen once this year when sixth in the
G1 Irish 1000 Guineas.
AAlbigna is making steady progress and it=s possible she could
have a busy end-of-year programme,@ said Cooper. AShe could
reappear in the Snow Fairy at The Curragh at the end of the
month, we=ll just wait and see. But all is well with her.@
Cooper reported that 3-year-old colt Highest Ground (Ire)
(Frankel {GB}), who lost his unbeaten record when beaten a
neck at third asking in the G2 Dante S. on July 9, will stay in
training at four.
ASir Michael is very happy with him currently, but he=s just
waiting a little bit longer before committing to a plan,@ said
Cooper. AThere was a mad rush when racing resumed with all
the races crammed together, but it=s not like that now. The
long-term plan for him is for next year, he=ll be staying in
training as a 4-year-old, so Sir Michael will feel his way and
when he=s ready, he=ll take it from there. I would think Highest
Ground fits the profile of a typical Sir Michael late-maturing
type--I hope so.@
SOTTSASS PLEASES IN GALLOP; GONTAUT-
BIRON NEXT Last-out G1 Prix Ganay winner Sottsass (Fr) (Siyouni {Fr}) is on
course for the G3 Prix Gontaut-Biron at Deauville on Aug. 15
after pleasing connections in a route piece of work on Thursday.
AHe did a simple work, as we are accustomed to do,@ said
trainer Jean-Claude Rouget of Peter Brant=s 4-year-old. AThe goal
is not to have a hard work; once they have made their seasonal
bow, we do maintenance work. They worked over 1800
metresBall went well. The horse has a good action and he
behaves as he does when he is in good form.
AAfter the Ganay, we left him alone for three weeks. His work
picked up for a comeback in mid-August. We didn=t know if he
would go to York [for the Juddmonte International] or to
Deauville. Apparently, we are going to Deauville. He still had a
fairly long break and the York race would be difficult for a
semi-return to racing.@ Cont. p6

QIPCO ANNOUNCES BRITISH CHAMPIONS
DAY PRIZE MONEY Total prize money for the 10th QIPCO British Champions Day
on Oct. 17 was cut to £2.5 million, QIPCO announced on

pandemic, but the raceday remains the richest in Great Britain.

G1 Queen Elizabeth II S. sponsored by QIPCO will be £650,000.

carry a purse of £300,000. Races will close on Sept. 1.
AWe are pleased to be able to stage a card worth ,2.5 million
on QIPCO British Champions Day despite our income streams
being so negatively affected and the enormous challenges facing
the sport currently,@ said British Champions Series Chief
Executive Rod Street. AQIPCO British Champions Day has seen
some superlative performances over the past decade and it is
hugely important to us that we continue to make running a
horse on the day as attractive as possible. We are very grateful

SPECTATORLESS RACING TO CONTINUE IN UK In the latest resumption of racing update, racing behind closed
doors is set to continue for the foreseeable future, the British
Horseracing Authority announced on Thursday. Cont. p7

UK Racing Update Cont.
The BHA thanked participants for their continued support and
cooperation in following the behind closed doors protocols, but
stressed that with both government and public health concerns
about a rise in cases and a potential >second wave= of COVID-19
cases, that it is vital everyone in racing continues to follow the
proper protocols so that progress can be resumed towards re-
introduction of spectators at the earliest available opportunity
through the rescheduling of pilot events.
BHA Chief Medical Officer Dr. Jerry Hill has requested all
participants and racecourse attendees to follow the following
three steps to help keep everyone safe:
$ Follow all the social distancing requirements when you
attend racing, whether you=re in the >green zone= for
participants or the owners= area.
$ Do not cross from one zone to another, as this weakens
the controls and could lead to many more people being
quarantined if there is a positive case, as well as risking
people=s health.
$ Please let the BHA=s Medical Team
(medical@britishhorseracing.com) know if there=s a
positive case so they can liaise with the public health
authorities to manage the NHS Test & Trace process
with the minimum impact. Dr. Hill can offer advice to
employers, which can limit the effects on their business
whilst keeping staff safe.
The BHA also reminded all racing personnel that the reason
restrictions have not been further eased, is that the specific
government guidance for elite sport applies to racing, whereas
these same restrictions would not be applied to local businesses,
like the local pub. Public health authorities have also made it
clear to the BHA that they will consider a 14-day quarantine
period for all racecourse attendees in the same zone as
someone who tests positive for COVID-19.

update, go to www.britishhorseracing.com.

partnership with Joseph O=Brien and we=ve been very fortunate
to race some talented individuals on Irish racecourses the last
few years including Crossfirehurricane, A New Dawn (Ire)
(Zoffany {Ire}), Take A Deep Breath (GB) (Bated Breath {GB}) and
our latest winner, an American Pharoah filly named Pista. Horse
Racing Ireland has been a pleasure to work with as they always
seem to go out of their way to make sure our experience is quite
special.@
The Curragh Racing and Sponsorship Manager Evan Arkwright
added, AWe are very grateful to Scott and his family for their
generous support and hope the sponsorship of the Round Tower
S. will be the start of a very positive partnership between us.
Scott=s racing colours have become very familiar to Irish racing
fans and following the victory of Crossfirehurricane in the G3
Coolmore Ten Sovereigns Gallinule S. in June, we hope that he
will enjoy many more successes at The Curragh.@

THE RISING STARS OF SPRING
By Bren O'Brien
Last season's five 2-year-old Group 1 races in Australia
provided four different Group 1 winners, and their returns
ahead of their spring campaigns will be eagerly anticipated. But
there are also a host of other very talented horses who have just
turned three who are ready to make an impression in the
coming months.
We have picked out a selection of 10 of the most exciting
3-year-olds, a list which while we don=t expect will be the
definitive guide to the spring's top-class winners, it does give an
indication of the level of expectation there is about the next
generation of stars.
Farnan (Not A Single Doubt x Tallow (Street Cry {Ire})
Trainers: Gai Waterhouse and Adrian Bott
Farnan proved himself the top seed of the 2-year-olds last
season, winning five of his six starts, including the G1 Golden
Slipper S., where he beat two of the three other 2-year-old
Group 1 winners of last season in Tagaloa (Lord Kanaloa {Jpn})
and King's Legacy (Redoute's Choice). He headed straight to the
paddock after that, skipping the chance to win further Group 1
races, instead spending some time in the Queensland sun over
the winter before returning to the Waterhouse/Bott stable
about a month ago. He will trial in the next couple of weeks
before likely resuming in the G2 Run To The Rose.
From there, it is likely he will contest the G1 Golden Rose, and
should he continue his dominance, then it is likely he will
contest The Everest, and then possibly the G1 Coolmore Stud S.
He also holds nominations for the G1 Caulfield Guineas and
the G1 Cox Plate, but that path seems unlikely. His spring
direction could also be determined by a possible change of
ownership, with Kia Ora Stud reportedly set to purchase an
interest in the colt.
Rothfire (Rothesay x Huss On Fire (NZ) (Hussonet {USA})
Trainer: Robert Heathcote
While he had already won five of his first six starts before the
G1 JJ Atkins S. it wasn't until he completely dominated that race,
winning by 3.3l, that Rothfire was elevated in the public mind to
one of the rising stars of the Australian turf. And what a story he
has been. A sales reject, bought for $10,000 by trainer Robert
Heathcote, he has now won over $750,000 and shapes as a
leading contender in the major races of the spring.
Rothfire is back in work and will trial at Doomben on Aug. 11,
before having another jumpout ahead of a first-up run in the G2
Run To The Rose on Sept. 12. From there, the G1 Golden Rose
will be his destination, with Heathcote also entertaining
thoughts of contesting The Everest. His trainer is planning on
sending him south without him, because COVID-19 restrictions
are likely to mean Heathcote is unable to move back and forth
between states. Rothfire also holds a nomination for the G1
Caulfield Guineas.
Doubtland (Not A Single Doubt x Miss Sharapova (NZ)
(Ustinov)
Trainers: John, Michael and Wayne Hawkes
The word 'untapped' very much applies to this $1.1 million
Orbis Bloodstock-owned colt, whose two racetrack appearances
featured a soft 2-year-old win at Randwick, followed by a 4l
romp in the G3 Kindergarten S. Team Hawkes are masters of
getting these talented colts to peak in their 3-year-old year and
many good judges have Doubtland on their list of horses to
watch for the spring.
The G1 Golden Rose looks an ideal spring target for him, but it
wouldn't completely surprise to see Team Hawkes also look to
target the G1 Coolmore Stud S. a race they won last year with a
horse of a similar profile in Exceedance (Exceed And Excel).
Doubtland is expected to make his first appearance at the trials
in the coming weeks.
TDN AUSTRALIA/NEW ZEALAND • PAGE 2 OF 3 • THETDN.COM FRIDAY • 7 AUGUST 2020
Tagaloa | Bronwen Healy
North Pacific (Brazen Beau x Up in Lights (NZ) (O'Reilly {NZ})
Trainers: John, Michael and Wayne Hawkes
Team Hawkes have taken a different path with their other star
colt from Orbis, North Pacific, having already kicked his
campaign off with a comfortable win at Rosehill last month. He
only had one previous start as a 2-year-old, running third behind
Farnan in the G2 Silver Slipper S., a debut performance which
showed he deserves to be considered among the best 3-year-old
spring prospects.
North Pacific, who was the $800,000 Sale topper at last year's
Inglis Melbourne Premier Yearling Sale, trialled earlier this week,
and again looked sharp and will be the horse with the race
fitness on his side should he head towards the G1 Golden Rose
which looks likely. He is also nommed for the G1 Caulfield
Guineas and G1 Cox Plate.
King's Legacy (Redoute's Choice x Breakfast In Bed (Hussonet {USA})
Trainers: Peter and Paul Snowden
Is it possible for a dual Group 1
winning 2-year-old to go into the
spring under the radar? King's
Legacy has all the attributes to be
one of the boom horses. He's a
$1.4-million yearling who won both
the G1 Inglis Sires' and the G1
Champagne S. and is trained by
Peter and Paul Snowden, who are
considered one of the finest
'stallion-makers' in the game, while
his ownership group is headed by
astute judge, James Harron.
Interestingly, Paul Snowden
indicated last week that he would go first-up into the G1 Golden
Rose, after which a decision would be made on which direction
he goes. The Caulfield Guineas, a race which he is nommed for,
looks an ideal spring target, while there is also the possibility of
the Cox Plate. However, if he proves himself more of a sprinter,
he could also be targeted at The Everest and the Coolmore Stud
S. He is set to trial this Tuesday.
Peltzer (So You Think (NZ)) x Miss Otto (Elusive Quality {USA})
Trainer: Gerald Ryan
He lacks the profile of a few of the others on this list, but
Gerald Ryan's colt has been super impressive in his three wins to
date, especially his most recent success on a heavy track at
Randwick back in May when he led all the way to win by 4l.
Peltzer looks a professional racehorse, with natural speed, who
should take considerable improvement into his 3-year-old
season. Ryan opted not to take him to the JJ Atkins S., which
could prove a masterstroke in terms of his spring prospects, and
in particular, his shot at the Golden Rose, which is set to be his
major target, while Ryan is also keen to look at the Caulfield
Guineas.
Tagaloa (Lord Kanaloa (Jpn)) x Vasilissa (Jpn) (Heart's Cry {Jpn})
Trainers: Trent Busuttin and Natalie Young
Tagaloa's win in the G1 Blue Diamond S. established him as
one of the season's best 2-year-olds, and he backed that up with
two good performances in Sydney, running second to Farnan in
the G2 Todman S. and then fourth in the Golden Slipper. Having
had six starts as a juvenile, he has had a good spell, with Trent
Busuttin reporting he had bulked up in the break.
He looked sharp in a Cranbourne jump-out earlier this week and
will resume in the G3 McNeil S. at Caulfield on August 15, with
COVID-19 border restrictions to determine whether he contests
the Golden Rose or the G3 Guineas Prelude on his way to his
ultimate Spring Carnival target, the Caulfield Guineas, Busuttin
has not ruled out a tilt at the Cox
Plate either.
Away Game (Snitzel x Elusive
Wonder (Elusive Quality {USA})
Trainers: Ciaron Maher and David
Eustace
Away Game proved herself the
iron horse of the 2-year-old ranks
last campaign. She was a
pre-Christmas stakes winner,
claimed the R. Listed Magic Millions
2YO Classic, won a G3 Widden S.,
ran fourth in a Blue Diamond S.,
then second in the Golden Slipper S. before winning the G2
Percy Sykes. Not content with that, she then took on the open
age fillies and mares in the G1 Robert Sangster S. finishing a
creditable fifth.
It=s probably little wonder that Maher and Eustace are looking
to give her a quieter start to the spring. She is nommed for the
Golden Rose S. the Thousand Guineas and even the Cox Plate,
but her stated spring goal is the G1 Manikato S. after which she
will look to the G1 Coolmore Stud S.
Hanseatic (Street Boss (USA) x Itameri (Exceed And Excel)
Trainers: Anthony and Sam Freedman
Godolphin colt Hanseatic made quite an impression in his
2-year-old campaign, winning a trio of stakes races to start his
career before a narrow second in the Blue Diamond S. before
never really getting into the race when 10th in the Golden
Slipper S.

The plan, according to his co-trainer Sam Freedman, will be

Caulfield Guineas, but that path seems unlikely.

The Yulong-owned filly is a bit of a smoky on this list, but her
2-year-old performances, added to the esteem she is held in by
jockey James McDonald, puts her among the must watch
3-year-olds of the spring. A runner-up at Flemington on debut,
Hungry Heart impressed with her win in the G2 Sweet Embrace
S., while she was not far from the action in the Golden Slipper,
finishing fifth at just her third start.
Nominated for all the spring 3-year-old features, she trialled
well in her first serious spring hitout at Rosehill on Tuesday,
ridden in behind runners. The daughter of Frankel (GB) is
currently a clear favourite for the G1 Flight S., and could
dominate the fillies in the Princess Series.

DELGADOS CHASE DERBYDREAM WITH LATE-
BLOOMING CARACARO
By Mike Kane
SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y. - This summer, the road to Churchill
Downs runs through upstate New York and has brought
Caracaro (Uncle Mo) from South Florida for the historic
GI Runhappy Travers S. Saturday.
Though the Travers is often the late-August goal for the
owners and trainers of talented 3-year-olds, the COVID-19
pandemic has produced a serious rewrite of the schedule for
elite races and briefly changed its status. Long ago dubbed the
"Midsummer Derby," the 2020 Travers at Saratoga Race Course
is a stepping stone to the GI Kentucky Derby Sept. 5.
In their quest for Derby points, trainer Gustavo Delgado and
his son and assistant Gustavo Delgado, Jr. shipped lightly raced
Caracaro to Saratoga Race Course last month. Caracaro earned
20 points with his narrow second-place finish to Country
Grammer (Tonalist) in the GIII Peter Pan S. on opening day,
July 16. Those Peter Pan points have him in 25th place, close,
but still outside the safety zone to secure one of the 20 berths.
The Travers, with 100-40-20-10 points available, is their last
chance.
"We're thinking about qualifying for the Derby," Delgado, Jr.
said. "If he runs in the top three and he comes out good,
hopefully we will make the Derby. Cont. p3

With the outposted Roderick (Into Mischief) scratching in favor
of a start in Saturday=s GII Best Pal S. at Del Mar, a field of 10 is
set to face the starter for Friday=s GII Saratoga Special S.,headed
by a trio of promising >TDN Rising Stars.=
Trainer Steve Asmussen, already a four-time winner of the
Special, sends out Stonestreet homebred Cazadero (Street
Sense), who looks to take his record to a perfect three-for-three.
The May foal, a son of MSW & GISP Wild Gams (Forest Wildcat),
set a pressured early pace before romping clear by 8 3/4 lengths
on Churchill debut May 29 and showed a bit of a new dimension
last time, sitting off a faster tempo before kicking home to win
the June 27 GIII Bashford Manor S. by 4 3/4 lengths. Cazadero
will attempt to join former Asmussen trainees Cuvee (2003),

Gustavo Delgado, Jr. | Mike Kane
Caracaro/Delgado cont. from p1
Caracaro is making his fourth career start for co-owners Global
Thoroughbred and Top Racing and drew post seven in the
eight-horse Travers. He will be ridden by Javier Castellano, who
holds a record six victories in this event.
Delgado, a hugely successful trainer in his native Venezuela,
laughed as he said that the colt--who was injured after his
maiden victory Jan. 11 and had six months between starts this
year--might make it to the Derby after all.
"Right now, with the pandemic there is a chance," he said. "If
there is no pandemic there is no chance."
Delgado, Jr. stepped in and translated the rest of his father's
words: "I would say that the only good thing about the virus is
that we have a shot in the Derby again."
If Caracaro delivers a big performance in the 151st Travers, he
would take the Delgados to their third Derby. Since emigrating
from Venezuela in 2014 and opening a stable in Florida, they
have had Majesto (Tiznow), 18th in 2016, and Bodexpress
(Bodemeister), 13th last year. Delgado, Jr. said they did
everything to get to Louisville with Majesto and Bodexpress.
"There is no comparison to this horse," Delgado Jr. said. "This
horse is way more talented than the last two."
Caracaro showed that ability in his six-length win in the
one-mile maiden score at Gulfstream, the second start of his
career. The performance made him a Derby prospect and Rafael
Celis of Global Thoroughbreds and his partner Lucas Noriego,
who competes as Top Racing, had offers to buy the colt. During
the vetting process, he was found to have a bone issue in is hind
end that scuttled the sale. Caracaro did not need surgery, but
required a three-month layoff.
"After the maiden race, there was a big group interested,"
Delgado, Jr. said. "When we were doing the X-ray for the sale,
that's when he found out he had that. We did the right thing and
gave him time. Our guess is that he was running with that
problem before. He always showed something behind, nothing
major, but that's when we found out. Then we did the right
thing and gave him time. We always considered him a good
horse."
Caracaro stayed with the Delgados at Gulstream Park West
and returned to light training after his three-month hiatus. He
had five breezes before making the trek to Saratoga to try to
earn his way into the Derby. He moved to the lead of the Peter
Pan in the stretch, but was collared by Country Grammer and
lost by a neck. Delgado said he would have skipped the Travers
if Caracaro had won the 1 1/8 miles Peter Pan and earned 50
points.
"We would go seven weeks [to the Kentucky Derby] not three
weeks [to the Travers]," he said. "Seven weeks is very good. For
the horse. For me. Every owner in the world likes to get to the
Kentucky Derby."
Delgado, Jr. picked up the translation for his father: "Normally,
we would like to have more time between races, but right now
we don't have any more options." Cont. p4

After the Peter Pan, Celis and Noriega--who also are partners
in Bodexpress--heard from interested buyers, but they have
retained ownership.
This weekend Caracaro will try again in the Travers, first run in
1864 and the marquee event of the Saratoga season. It was
moved ahead a few weeks from its usual spot in late August to
make it a Derby prep. This will be the earliest running of the
race since 1916.
"We are here. The horse really likes the track," Delgado, Jr.
said. "He ran second and he ran a helluva race. The Travers is
close to the Derby, but it will be hard for us telling the owners
we don't want to run in the Travers. Javier Castellano is open for
us and the horse is doing good. So, a lot is going on from the
owner's standpoint. Everybody wants to try. If you have the
horse now. It's not like you are going to save time and see and
then something happens after. You have the horse now and the
horse is doing good now."
Though his work tab shows two breezes since the Peter Pan,
Delgado said he really could not work Caracaro between races.
"Everything is good. No problem," he said. "He has only been
galloping because he only had three weeks. It was six months,
no races. Now it's very difficult. We considered only galloping, to
the Travers. It's possible that we have good luck."
The Delgados said they think the mile and a quarter distance of
the Travers will suit their colt.
"The horse is going to be relaxed, he's going to be on his own
gallop," Delgado, Jr. said. "We will feel better in the 10 furlongs.
The 10 furlongs will be even better for our horse, that's what we
think. He's a galloper. You can tell the way he strides he covers a
lot of ground. We think he can go even better in the 10 furlongs
than in a mile or a mile and an eighth."
Saratoga Special cont. from p1
"It=s nice to have a couple of races under his belt heading into
a race like this at Saratoga," said Asmussen's chief assistant
Scott Blasi. "He came in very well-respected and hasn't done
anything wrong yet."
First-call rider Ricardo Santana, Jr. retains the mount on
Cazadero, while Joel Rosario takes the call on Jackie=s Warrior
(Maclean=s Music), a 2 1/2-length maiden winner at first asking
in Louisville June 19. Second on that occasion was

AT OUTSIDE IN, OTTBS BRING NEEDED JOYby Diana Pikulski
Jennifer McVoy is a Licensed Master Social Worker and the
founder of Out Side In, located in Grand Marsh, MI, who grew
up riding and showing Arabians. Her first educational degree
was in business and she began her work life in the corporate
world, but, early on, she decided that it wasn't for her and went
back to school to earn her Master's Degree in Social Work. For
15 years, she practiced traditional therapy in a public-school
setting and was always aware that horses could make a
difference for people in need. Just over 10 years ago, she made
her first foray into equine-assisted work. The enhancement to
her traditional practice was so profound that she expanded and
brought in a second horse, an off-track Thoroughbred that she
found in a classified ad. McVoy's practice took off, so she
purchased a 25-acre farm, has incorporated an average of 18-22
OTTBs at a time, and has become a Thoroughbred Aftercare
Alliance-accredited aftercare organization.
The mission at Out Side In is threefold. The organization
focuses on providing psychotherapy, a unique 12-week program
for veterans, and Thoroughbred aftercare. The majority of the
clients participating in psychotherapy and the veterans= program
are severe trauma victims with post-traumatic stress disorder.
Many have attempted suicide or have had suicide ideation.
Many clients are referred to Out Side In because they are
considered treatment-resistant, meaning these women, men,
teens and children have refused treatment, or that other
therapies have failed for them.
"We take the hardest cases and we have success where other
therapists do not," said McVoy. "In many situations, I say just get
him or her here and if need be, I bring a horse to the car."
Out Side In employs six therapists and all have a deep
background in horses. On the first visit to Out Side In, the
therapist and client go into the pasture to meet the herd of
Thoroughbreds. To ease the client into the treatment process,
they ask questions related to the horses which bring out
answers about themselves and the issues they are facing.
Inevitably, one horse will be especially interested and pick that
person.
"We don't really know why one horse connects with a certain
person," said McVoy. "All it takes is that one moment when the
horse comes over and chooses the client. In that bonding
moment, the walls in the person just come down."
Over its almost 10 years of operation, Out Side In has grown
and become established in the community for its unique success
rate, serving 150 people per week. Because they practice
traditional psychotherapy, enhanced with the participation of
horses, client care is often covered by insurance and Medicaid
for uninsured or under-insured clients. With the help of local
supporters, Out Side In grew from one pasture with a
port-a-potty to a state-of-the-art facility with a more-than
20,000-square foot indoor arena, six treatment rooms, a waiting
room, and 16 stalls. Thoroughbreds are the only horses helping
with therapy.
"After nine years, the Thoroughbreds still amaze me every
day," said McVoy. "I will only do this work with Thoroughbreds.
They are intelligent, perceptive and they love to be with people.
Especially with the difficult cases we handle, there is so much to
work with."
The veterans program, Heroes for Horses, pairs three veterans
at a time each with a horse, recently off the track, for 12 weeks.
Together, they work through their many common experiences.
"Just like veterans, foster kids, survivors of abuse and trauma,
and all people, racehorses have life experiences that shape their
personalities and how they interact with others," said McVoy.
"We can watch the herd and talk about how the horses adapt to
their circumstances, like being moved from one home to
another and having to become part of a new herd or family."
Often previously treatment-resistant veterans will ask to stay
and volunteer to help other horses when their 12-week program
has ended. One such veteran suffered from severe PTSD and
had tried therapy at the VA that was not successful. He wife
pressed him for three years to visit Out Side In. Finally, when she
gave him an ultimatum, he agreed. Cont. p8

On Aftercare cont.
"He bonded early on with one mare, Theteflonwarrior
(Killenaule), and completed the program," said McVoy. "He lives
close by and he still comes and helps early in the morning before
we open. He even had a picture of the mare and our logo
tattooed on his neck. He said she saved his life."
Out Side In retrains and adopts out two to three OTTBs a year
to make room for new rescues. Esla Mambo (Black Mambo), the
second OTTB to enter Out Side In, came through CANTER. He
ended his racing career with 38 starts and close to $50,000 in
earnings at Hawthorne Race Course. He is the herd leader and
the calm quiet type--often the gateway horse to ease the initial
fears of new clients.
"Esla Mambo is our go-to horse when people are nervous
about horses," said McVoy. "It's funny because he is the biggest
horse but he is a gentle herd leader and we can trust him
around everyone."
"We have a wonderful therapy client who my daughter is now
teaching to ride on Esla. It was always her dream to learn to
ride. She is 82. She started therapy with us when she lost her
husband a few years ago."
Out Side In serves many children and teens who have been
abused and are now in the foster care system.
"I just did an intake of two children who witnessed their father
shoot their mother in the head," said McVoy. "She survived and
brought them to us. For them and for many others, being with
the horses becomes the only good experience in their life."
"So many kids have done nothing wrong and no good situation
exists for them in their home or in being removed from their
home. At Out Side In, in spite of everything, they can have an
hour of happiness. I always let them sit on a horse and then a

owners from any state not currently listed on the travel
advisory, will continue to be permitted at Saratoga Race Course
on the day that their horse is entered to run with prior NYRA
approval.
Owners are subject to a mandatory temperature check before
entering the property and are required to practice social
distancing and to wear a facial covering at all times while at
Saratoga Race Course. These measures are actively enforced by
NYRA security and the NYRA safety stewards.

SECOND CHANCES: VITTORIOby Steve Sherack
In this continuing series, TDN=s Senior Editor Steve Sherack
catches up with the connections of promising maidens to keep
on your radar.
Vittorio (c, 2, Ghostzapper--Roberta Turner, by Smart Strike), a
$750,000 OBS Spring purchase by Kaleem Shah, has every right
to build off a better-than-it-looked debut fifth going five furlongs
at Del Mar Aug. 1 (video).
Off to a tardy beginning after breaking inward at the start, the
4-1 chance, equipped with blinkers, was slow into stride and
trailed the field in ninth through an opening quarter in :23.28.
He began to make a flashy, sweeping move while four/five wide
on the far turn beneath Mike Smith as Freedom Fighter
(Violence) led with Dixie=s Two Stents (Quality Road) in hot
pursuit in second.
Into fifth and looking a potential danger as they turned for
home despite the slow start and wide trip, Vittorio raced a bit
greenly from there hanging on his left lead and lugging in some
as the top two ran away from the field with Freedom Fighter
digging down gamely for a head victory. It was another
5 1/4 lengths back to Petruchio (Into Mischief) in third, who
chased the top two throughout in a race in which the speed held
together very well.
Vittorio, 8 1/4 lengths adrift of the winner, earned a 53 Beyer
Speed Figure for the effort. He is trained by Simon Callaghan.
AHe got left behind at the start and lost all chance,@ Shah said.
AMike Smith liked the horse, and with more gate works in him,
he should be a different horse in his next start. Vittorio came out
of his race in good shape. He should improve with more distance
down the road.@
Vittorio, a $250,000 Keeneland September yearling graduate,
was the fifth most expensive purchase at this year=s postponed
Spring Sale in Ocala after breezing an eighth in a bullet :9 4/5
from the Sequel Bloodstock consignment. Bloodstock agent Ben
McElroy signed the ticket on behalf of Shah.
AThe good horses cost a lot of money for sure,@ Shah said. AI do
like the 2-year-old in training sales where most of my horse
racing success has come from and I had to stretch a lot to get
him--Bob Baffert was the underbidder. Simon Callaghan and Ben
McElroy liked this horse a lot at the sale.@
Bred in Kentucky by Stonestreet Thoroughbred Holdings,
Vittorio is out of a half-sister to MSW & MGSP Foxy Danseur
(Mr. Greeley), the dam of graded stakes-winning >TDN Rising
Star= Ever So Clever (Medaglia d=Oro).
AVittorio means victorious in Italian,@ Shah concluded. AI sure
hope he is a winner of many prestigious races down the road.@
Previous standouts featured in >Second Chances= include: GI
Runhappy Santa Anita Derby winner Honor A. P. (Honor Code),
Royal Ascot G2 Norfolk S. runner-up Golden Pal (Uncle Mo),

Jolting Joe, who opened his career with four straight runner-up
efforts, finally got to the wire first while breaking his maiden in
the Cab Calloway division of the New York Stallion Series at
Saratoga Thursday. The gray colt, a half-brother to recent GII
Bernard Baruch S. winner Somelikeithotbrown (Big Brown),
settled off the pace as longshot Stuy Town Baby (Bellamy Road)
took the field through fractions of :25.19 and :49.24. Dream
Bigger (Mission Impazible) rolled up to challenge the pacesetting
filly at the head of the lane, but his advantage was short lived as
Jolting Joe kicked into gear. The favorited shrugged off a
challenge from Turbo Drive and sailed under the wire a
confident winner.
AWith a short run into the first turn, I was trying to be a bit
more forwardly placed, but we didn't get away the cleanest,@
said winning jockey Tyler Gaffalione. AI looked to my inside and
there were two going at it, so I figured I would just sit behind
them and let them do the dirty work.@

Jolting Joe | Sarah Andrew
Gaffalione continued, AHe was traveling nicely throughout, and
when I asked him for run at the top of the lane, he gave me an
extra punch. I still think there's more in the tank. We haven't
seen the best of him yet. Hopefully, he just keeps improving.@
Jolting Joe began his string of runner-up efforts at Kentucky
Downs last September. He shipped south to Florida for second-
place finishes at Gulfstream in the Sept. 28 Armed Forces S. and
behind GI Kentucky Derby contender King Guillermo (Uncle Mo)
in a maiden special weight at Gulfstream West Nov. 2. He
returned from eight months on the sidelines and missed by just
a head after setting the pace going 1 1/16 miles at Ellis Park last
time out July 25.
AThe horse ran a credible race at Ellis Park,@ trainer Mike
Maker said of the winner. AHe seems to find some tough
competition and he proved our high hopes for him today. Some
of the seconds we were disappointed with, but it turns out they
were some pretty live races.@
Marilyn Monroan produced a colt by Palace Malice in 2019
and a filly by Hard Spun this year. She was bred back to

HUNGRY KITTEN (f, 4, Kitten=s Joy--Hungry Island {MGSW &
MGISP, $758,704}, by More Than Ready) was coming off a win
going 10 furlongs over the Belmont lawn in a July 9 allowance.
Sent off at 5-1, the chestnut filly was last throughout much of
this marathon contest. Still with everyone to catch after 1 1/4
miles, she unleashed a furious late rally to just get a neck in
front of Eliade (Fr) (Teofilo {Ire}) on the line. Two-time graded
stakes winner Hungry Island, a half-sister to graded stakes
winner Soaring Empire (Empire Maker), produced a colt by
Kitten=s Joy in 2020 and was bred back to American Pharoah.

PREMIER STAR (c, 3, Tapiture--Letthetigerparty, by Hold That
Tiger) opened his career with back-to-back wins going seven
furlongs at Gulfstream Park last winter and was named a >TDN
Rising Star= for the latter effort Jan. 15, but finished a distant
sixth when stretched to 1 1/16 miles in the Feb. 8 GIII Sam F.
Davis S. in his final outing for Jorge Navarro. Off slowly in his
return, the chesntut colt came home fourth going six furlongs at
Laurel June 19 for Mike Trombetta. The 5-2 shot sprinted out to
the early lead and was in control through an opening quarter in
:22.45. He extended his advantage turning for home, drawing
4 1/2 lengths in front after a half in :44.97 and was much the
best despite drifting out slightly late. Fortunate Friends (J P=s
Gusto) was 3 1/2 lengths back in second. Premier Star was a
$105,000 KEESEP yearling and a $100,000 OBS June juvenile. He
is the last foal out of Letthetigerparty, who died in 2019. Click

PURRFECTLY CLAIRE (f, 3, Munnings--Magical Belle, by
Unbridled's Song), second, beaten 3/4 lengths by Curlinesque
(Curlin) in her 6 1/2-furlong debut at Churchill Downs last
September, resurfaced with a 2 1/4-length graduation going six
furlongs in Louisville June 27. The 3-5 favorite was part of a
three-way battle on the front end through fractions of :22.39
and :45.84. She began to inch away late before holding on for a
half-length win over late-closing Hoptown Honey (Roman Ruler).
Purrfectly Claire was a $250,000 KEESEP yearling. Magical
Belle is a full-sister to GI Breeders= Cup Distaff winner Unrivaled
Belle, dam of champion Unique Bella (Tapit). The mare
produced a colt by Frosted in 2019 and was bred to Twirling
Candy this year. Her filly by Tapit, Siraneuse, sold to bloodstock

GUARDIAN MOON (f, 2, Declaration of War--Elatha, by Malibu
Moon) recorded a professional 1 1/4-length debut victory over
the Saratoga lawn Thursday. The 7-5 favorite pressed the pace
through an opening quarter in :22.27. The bay filly stuck her
head in front at the top of the stretch and was clear through a
quarter in :45.98. She turned back a mild challenge from Herald
Angel (Exaggerator) late to win with authority.
Guardian Moon is the first foal out of Elatha, who was bred to
champion Gun Runner this spring. The mare also has a yearling

ISOLATE (c, 2, Mark Valeski--Tranquil Song, by Unbridled's
Song), bet down to 3-1 from a 15-1 morning line, was jostled at
the break, but recovered to angle over to the rail and raced
keenly just off the early leaders. The bay colt attempted to rush
up through a narrow opening on the rail leaving the backstretch,
but was shut off and shuffled back. He angled out five wide for
the stretch run, only to dart back to the inside and found a seam
to run through, charging to the lead with a furlong to run and
holding off Boomer (Gone Astray) to win by 3/4 lengths.
The winner was a $70,000 KEENOV weanling. Tranquil Song, a
daughter of multiple graded placed Travelator (A. P Jet),
produced a filly by Cloud Computing this spring and was bred
back to Enticed. Beth Bayer purchased the mare for $2,000 at

CARIMBA (f, 2, Kantharos--Star of Gallantry, by Warrior's
Reward), the only filly in the field, was sent off as the crowd=s
6-5 choice in this unveiling. The chestnut filly was bumped at the
break, but was undaunted, zipping out to the early lead. She
extended her advantage into the far turn and was never
challenged while romping home an 8 1/2-length winner.
Verrazanointhesky (Verrazano) was second.
AShe did everything good,@ jockey DeShawn Parker said of the
winner. AShe broke out good and handled the turf like a
professional. She will be really tough moving forward. I didn=t
get any instructions on riding her, just got a leg up. But I always
know everything from Wesley [Ward] is fast. She got out of the
gate and just carried on from there.@
Carimba was a $155,000 KEENOV weanling purchase. Star of

finishing with interest to be fourth, beaten six lengths (video,

three weeks later (video, gate 5). The $700K Keeneland
