STREET CRY COLT TOPS AT $1.4MBy Tom LaMarra

Three yearlings surpassed the $1-million mark

during the two-day Fasig-Tipton Saratoga select

yearling sale, and the second-highest price of the

three—$1.4 million—was paid for Hip 168, a colt by

the late stallion Street Cry during the sale's second

session Aug. 11.

Consigned by Paramount Sales, the session-top-

ping colt was purchased by Sheikh Mohammed's

bloodstock manager John Ferguson.

"It is very hard to breed a good horse," Fergu-

son said. "He's handsome and as good-looking as

any of the horses here. The breeders deserve to

get paid."

Ann Bakhaus, owner of Keene Ridge Farm near

Lexington, co-bred the dark bay or brown colt with

Sheikh Mohammed's Darley breeding operation.

The colt's second dam, Cuando Quiere, produced

nine winners including Flower Bowl Invitational (gr.

IT) winner Honey Ryder, who banked more than

$2.27 million. The sale of the $1.4 million colt fueled

a more than 66% increase in gross for the session

compared with the same session in 2014. BH

YOUNG BUYS MALIBU MOON FILLYBy Ian Tapp

Agent Steve Young paid $800,000 for the top-

priced filly during Fasig-Tipton Saratoga's Aug.

11 second session. Consigned as Hip 170, the

daughter of Malibu Moon—Red Hot Bertie sold

from the consignment of Hill'n' Dale Sales Agency.

"She was at the top of our list," said Young, who

declined to name his client but indicated the filly

was bought to race. "She basically sold herself every

time I went and saw her. She's smart, she's a very

good mover, and I couldn't be happier with her.

"I probably went to see her four times, but I

look at horses more than some people do," he

said. "Some people look at horses multiple times

SARATOGA SALE POSTS MAJOR GAINSBy Tom LaMarra

Boyd Browning wasn't speechless, but he said he

was almost speechless when the numbers were

tallied for the Fasig-Tipton Saratoga select yearling

sale Aug. 10-11 in Saratoga Springs, N.Y.

The gross for 145 horses sold jumped 40% to

$46,755,000, while the average of $322,448 increased

a healthy 10%.

The median

inched up 5.3%

to $250,000,

while the RNA

rate was 15%, a

3.9% improve-

ment from last

year.

"This was a

tremendous sale

overall," Browning said. "We had an extremely con-

sistent group of horses on the sale grounds. I think

there is increased confidence by owners to bring their

horses to Saratoga, and I'm pretty confident they will

be rewarded with graded stakes success."

Browning said the results are tied to improved

economic conditions in the industry but also the

efforts of the Fasig-Tipton team.

"There's a lot of pressure on us up here—most of

it self-imposed—because we want to do a great job,"

Browning said. "We'll start working on 2016 in the

morning. We want to build on this success." BH

EL CAPI RACING A RECRUITING SUCCESSBy Eric Mitchell

Fasig-Tipton's increased commitment to recruiting

Latin American buyers is paying big dividends.

Last November the Lexington-based sale com-

pany hired Ramiro Restrepo as its market repre-

sentative for South America and the Caribbean. The

34-year-old South Florida resident started by building

up the base of potential buyers at Gulfstream Park.

Through prominent Venezuelan trainer Gustavo

Delgado, Restrepo met Francisco Convit and broth-

ers Carlos and Jose Uzcategui, three of five partners

in Miami-based El Capi Racing. Restrepo paved the

way for the partners to participate in Fasig-Tipton's

Saratoga select yearling sale, where on opening night

(Aug. 10) they paid $2 million for a strapping Tapit

colt out of Dress Rehearsal, a grade III winner by

Galileo.

"All these guys are new to the U.S. racing scene,

but they are prominent players in their home coun-

try," Restrepo said. "They did their homework and

targeted this horse. They called him'El Toro'—the

bull. They believe this is the horse that is going to

take them to the big stage." BH

Browning attributed gains to increased confidence by owners to bring top horses

STRONG SALE FOR THE FACTORBy Eric Mitchell

Offspring of first-crop yearling sire The Factor

attracted considerable attention at the Fasig-Tip-

ton Saratoga select yearling sale among pinhookers

and end-users alike. All six of the War Front stallion's

Saratoga yearlings sold during the Aug. 11 second

session, where they averaged $386,667.

The Factor's top-selling lot was Hip 202, a

$750,000 colt out of Street Scene purchased by Willis

Horton. Top Line Sales consigned the colt.

'"With War Front doing so well, this is a way to get

a War Front at more value," said Torie Gladwell, own-

er of Top Line Sales with her husband, James.

The Factor was a speedy, multiple grade I winner

who set a six-furlong track record of 1:06.98 at Santa

Anita while breaking his maiden.

"They are very athletic and very well-balanced,"

said Andrew Cary, co-owner of Select Sales, which

sold Hip 152, a $185,000 colt out of Pieria. "They have

enough stretch, so I don't think they will be one-di-

mensional horses." BH

TAPIT, SCAT DADDY LEAD BY GROSSBy Ron Mitchell

While Tapit predictably dominated the Fasig-Tipton

Saratoga yearling sale, the breakthrough sire

would have to be Ashford Stud's Scat Daddy, who was

second by gross and

averaged $450,000

from six yearlings

sold.

The top-priced

Scat Daddy was

Hip 126, a $600,000

colt from Hurstland

Farm's consignment

that sold to Roy and

Gretchen Jackson's

Lael Stables during

the sale's second

session Aug. 11.

Scat Daddy's results are even more impressive con-

sidering his current yearlings were conceived at a rea-

sonable $30,000 fee in 2013; he stood the 2015 season

for $35,000. Sale-leading Tapit's current yearlings were

bred on a $125,000 fee, and the Gainesway stallion

stood for $300,000 in 2015.

Scat Daddy currently sits second on the 2015 sires

of 2-year-olds list and has been on fire this summer

thanks to Acapulco, a $750,000 2-year-old at the Oc-

ala Breeders' Sales Co.'s March sale and subsequent

winner of the Queen Mary Stakes (Eng-II) at Royal Ascot.

Acapulco is among the top prospects for the Nunthorpe

Stakes (Eng-I) Aug. 21 at York. BH

STANDOFF ON FEDERAL MEDICATION BILLBy Tom LaMarra

The gloves came off during the Aug. 11 Saratoga Insti-

tute on Racing, Equine, and Gaming Law conference,

at least when it came to discussion of federal legislation

for equine medication. The commentary offered further

proof there is no consensus among industry stakehold-

ers but, perhaps worse, there is a lot of distrust.

The Association of Racing Commissioners Interna-

tional and horsemen's groups claim they've had no

input in the bill's language, and that supporters of the

initiative want to do away with race-day furosemide in

the United States.

Panelists on the pro side made their case that state-

by-state regulation hasn't worked, and that the Thor-

oughbred Horseracing Integrity Act of 2015, which would

give the United States Anti-Doping Agency oversight of

equine medication policies, testing, and enforcement,

is the only way to bring about uniformity and reform.

Meanwhile, the day's keynote speaker, U.S. Rep. Paul

Tonko of New York, who co-sponsored the legislation,

said he is open to getting input from horsemen and

even from racing fans in advance of a fall hearing. BH

RACING COMPACT OFFERED ONCE AGAINBy Tom LaMarra

A panel discussion on pari-mutuel wagering at the

Aug. 11 Saratoga Institute on Racing, Equine, and

Gaming Law conference brought up an old concept

that had quietly gone away for lack of industry support.

Several years ago the National Racing Compact

had been proposed as a means for state regulators

to agree upon and quickly implement model rules

and policies under a pseudo-federal structure that

protected states rights.

Association of Racing Commissioners Interna-

tional president Ed Martin revisited the idea of the

compact in relation to advance deposit wagering

companies that deal with licensing requirements and

fees in each state in which they do business.

"It was declared a failure, but it was never really

tried," Martin said

of the compact. "I'm

surprised none of the

ADWs realized this

was a vehicle worth

pushing."

Jack Jeziorski, ex-

ecutive vice president

of Monarch Content

Management, which

manages simulcast signals, said ADWs might be

more open to the compact today than they were five

years ago, given the regulatory climate and increas-

ing license fees. BH

TOP FIGS FOR WHITNEY RUNNERSBy Frank Angst

If any concerns remain about the

quality of this year's $1.25 mil-

lion Whitney Stakes (gr. I) in which

Honor Code rallied from 19 1/4

lengths back to catch Liam's Map

in the final strides, this week's

Equibase Speed Figures should

eliminate those doubts.

Boasting seven grade I winners,

the Whitney looked to be the best

handicap race offered so far this

year; it more than lived up to its

billing. The top four finishers reg-

istered the four highest Equibase

Speed Figures of the week. Honor

Code, who entered off a Metro-

politan Handicap (gr. I) victory in

which he registered a then person-

al-best 122 figure, improved on

that, posting a 126.

Whitney runner-up Liam's Map

also was credited with a 126 after

coming up a neck short. Classic

winner Tonalist finished 1 3/4

lengths behind the winner in third,

and earned a 123 while grade I

winner Wicked Strong, six lengths

back in fourth, received a 117. BH

GLENEAGLES, GOLDEN HORN TO MEET AT YORKBy Madison Scott

Leading European 3-year-olds

Gleneagles and Golden Horn,

both unbeaten this season, are set

to face off Aug. 19 in the about-10-

furlong Juddmonte International

Stakes (Eng-I) at York.

Gleneagles has dominated

3-year-old milers, having won two

Guineas and the June 16 James's

Palace (Eng-I). Golden Horn won the

Investec Epsom Derby (Eng-I) and

successfully cut back to 10 furlongs

in the July 4 Coral-Eclipse (Eng-I).

Gleneagles had been targeting

the Aug. 16 Prix Jacques le Marois

(Fr-I), but concerns over the ground

prompted trainer Aidan O'Brien to

alter course.

"I've always considered Glen-

eagles a true miler, but he needs

good, fast ground to be seen at

his best," O'Brien said Aug. 11 in a

Coolmore release. "Therefore, York

will probably be his next race as we

are running out of options."

Gleneagles, by Galileo out of

a full sister to Giant's Causeway,

appears to have the pedigree for

added distance. Golden Horn, by

Cape Cross, heads into the Inter-

national after skipping the group

I King George VI and Queen Eliza-

beth Stakes, also due to concerns

over ground. BH

STALLIONS

A LESS-THAN-EFFICIENT MARKET

Forty-plus years ago I claimed my first brood-

mare prospect and a week later began

teaching financial economics at the university

level. Since then I've researched or written on

the economics and finances of Thoroughbred

breeding and racing on an almost daily basis

while trying to perfect the art of buying low and

selling high in the broodmare market. I consid-

er it my good fortune to have been invited to

continue my research and writing for the new

Blood-Horse Daily. My goal with this column is

to help readers make more informed decisions

in the bloodstock market with financial eco-

nomics in mind.

I often use analogies related to academic

finance and economics topics, and here's the

first. The Efficient Markets Hypothesis (A Ran-

dom Walk Down Wall Street is a great read on this

topic) argues that stock prices, especially those

of large companies, are typically fairly priced,

and that it is a waste of time to look for bargains

in the stock market. In a recent New York Times

article, Robert Shiller contended that real estate

prices are significantly less efficient than stock

prices. I'd argue that bloodstock prices are even

less efficient than real estate prices.

One of many examples I can cite is Elek-

traline, a Canadian grade III stakes winner who

dropped in for a Can$80,000 (about US$50,000

at the time) claiming tag Sept. 19, 2002, while

on the downward side of her racing career. I

convinced my partners that she was a bargain at

that price, and we claimed her and entered her

in the 2003 Keeneland January sale, where she

brought US$110,000. Her pedigree had not im-

proved one whit since the claim. You probably

have a similar story you can tell, but the point is

that good buys can be found in this market. But

this game isn't easy. The average random buyer

of stocks makes money while the average ran-

dom buyer of bloodstock loses money. So, if the

financial outcomes of your breeding and racing

ventures are important to you, it's paramount

that you use careful analysis and employ good

management techniques.

In future columns I'll cover topics such as risk

attitudes, proven vs. unproven stallions, sound

vs. unsound stallions, and other market trends.

My list of potential topics is at 30 and climbing;

if you have a topic you would like to have dis-

cussed, send me a note.

Finally, I have a question for you. Is a proven

stallion worth more if wholly owned by a farm

or if syndicated? Why should a breeder care?

The reader who submits the best answer to

[email protected] (60 words or less) will receive

an iota award in a future column. Next week's

topic: more on market inefficiencies. BH

2015 SIRES BY LIFETIME AEIListed below are the top 10 leading sires by lifetime Average Earnings Index (AEI) through August 10, 2015. Only active stallions in North America (excluding stallions that were exported prior to the 2011 breeding season) with at least 150 named foals of racing age are included. All statistics are Northern Hemisphere only. AEI indicates how much purse money the progeny of one sire has earned in relation to the average earnings of all runners in the same years; average earnings of all runners in any year is represented by an index of 1.00. CI indicates the average earnings of progeny produced from mares bred to one sire, when these same mares were bred to other sires.
