SIGNIFICANT MILESTONE FOR TAPITBy Alastair Bull

Leading sire Tapit reached a significant milestone when

his son Cupid won the Indiana Derby (gr. II) June 16.

The victory took career earnings of the Gainesway

stallion's progeny past the $100 million mark, a mile-

stone achieved with nine crops of racing age.

Tapit set a U.S. progeny earnings record of $16.8

million when he became leading sire for the first time

in 2014, and broke the record last year with $18.4 mil-

lion. He leads the list this year with $11.6 million.

"Tapit is no stranger to remarkable achievements

as a sire, whether it's on the racetrack or in the sales

ring," said Ian Tapp, who handles sales and blood-

stock development at Gainesway. "Tapit is coming off

a year when his yearlings averaged $615,000 and the

mares in foal to him averaged $1.5 million.

"So when you consider the crops that are still

in the pipeline, it's obvious that crossing the $100

million mark in progeny earnings is going to be just

another footnote to Tapit's incredible career."

Tapit stands for a $300,000 fee at Gainesway. His

book has been limited to 135 this year. BH

SARATOGA READY TO OPEN WITH A BANGBy Blood-Horse Staff

Saratoga Race Course is set to open its 40-day sum-

mer meet July 22 and will feature 69 stakes worth

a record $18.725 million, anchored by the $1.25 mil-

lion Whitney Stakes (gr. I) Aug. 6 and the $1.25 million

Travers Stakes (gr. I) Aug. 27.

Opening day starts with the grade III, $150,000

Schuylerville Stakes for 2-year-old fillies and the grade

III, $200,000 Lake George Stakes for 3-year-old fillies on

the turf. First post time is 1 p.m. EDT Friday, with gates

opening at 11 a.m.

Saturday highlights include the grade III, $150,000

Sanford Stakes for juveniles and the first grade I of the

meet, the $500,000 Diana Stakes for turf fillies and mares,

while Sunday marks the appearance of reigning champion

2-year-old filly Songbird in the grade I, $500,000 Coaching

Club American Oaks for 3-year-old fillies.

"We are very fortunate to have Songbird running on

opening weekend," said Martin Panza, NYRA's senior

vice president of racing operations. "The following

weekend is the ($600,000) Jim Dandy (Stakes, gr. II), in

which we are likely to see the Belmont (Stakes present-

ed by NYRA Bets, gr. I) winner (Creator) and the Preak-

ness (Stakes, gr. I) winner, Exaggerator. Looking beyond

that, nearly every weekend there will be a champion or

a star running, and that's what Saratoga is all about."

The 1 1/8-mile Whitney will pair with the grade I,

$500,000 Longines Test Stakes for 3-year-old fillies, with

the grade III, $200,000 Fasig-Tipton Waya for fillies and

mares going 1 1/2 miles on the turf.

Joining the Travers for 3-year-olds Aug. 27 are five

other grade I stakes: the $1 million Longines Sword

Dancer Invitational at 1 1/2 miles on the turf, the

$500,000 Ballerina Stakes for filly and mare sprinters,

the $700,000 Priority One Jets Forego Stakes at seven

furlongs, the $750,000 Ketel One King's Bishop Stakes,

and the $750,000 Personal Ensign Stakes for fillies and

mares going 1 1/8 miles. Rounding out the card is the

grade II, $400,000 Woodford Reserve Ballston Spa for

turf fillies and mares.

Last year, the crowd capped at 50,000, more than

$51 million was wagered on the day. In all, the meet

broke records in both handle ($656 million) and paid

attendance (1,065,625).

"We just came off a year in which we crushed the old

record," said Panza. "We are the only race meet in the

country running six days a week, which is not an easy

thing to do with the foal crop hovering around 20,000

a year. The weather will be a factor, as it always is at

Saratoga. The day-to-day racing should be good, and

the stars will be out on the weekends."

After opening weekend July 22-25, racing will be

conducted Wednesdays through Mondays, concluding

on Labor Day, Sept. 5. BH

NTRA POLL SHOWS LITTLE CHANGEBy Mary Reeder

The NTRA Thoroughbred Poll has not changed

much in the last month, as California Chrome is

number one for yet another week and Tepin is right

behind him.

Beholder and Frosted both solidified their places

in third and fourth by easily winning their races—Be-

holder in the June 4 Vanity Mile (gr. I) and Frosted in the

June 11 Mohegan Sun Metropolitan Handicap (gr. I).

California Chrome resumes July 23 in the San Diego

Handicap (gr. II) at Del Mar, while Beholder is due to

contest the Clement L. Hirsch Stakes (gr. I) at the same

venue the following weekend.

Leading 3-year-olds Nyquist and Songbird are

looking to move up. Both were put through work-

outs July 17 at Del Mar and both are scheduled for

upcoming races on the East Coast—Nyquist in the

Betfair.com Haskell Invitational and Songbird in the

Coaching Club American Oaks (both gr. I).

Of the remaining horses that received enough

votes to put them into the top 10, Catch a Glimpse

has had the most recent race. The 3-year-old City

Zip filly added the Belmont Oaks Invitational Stakes

(gr. I) to her list of seven graded stakes wins July 9.

Catch a Glimpse has won eight of nine starts.

The weekly poll concludes Nov. 7 following the

Breeders' Cup. BH

UNBEATEN 2YOS HEADLINE PADDOCK SALEBy Myra Lewyn

The only two stakes-winning juvenile colts based

in California this year—Crosscheck Carlos and

California Diamond—will be up for auction July 23 at

Barretts Paddock Sale at Del Mar.

The pair, each unbeaten in two starts, will be of-

fered by Andy Havens' Havens Bloodstock.

"What's interesting about both of them is that

their (sires) are not exactly household words, but (the

colts) are really something to look at," Havens said.

Louisiana-bred Crosscheck Carlos, by Custom

for Carlos—who was Louisiana's top freshman sire

last year and currently is leading second-crop sire—

shipped from his California base with trainer Doug

O'Neill and won a division of the $100,000 D.S. Shine

Young Futurity July 16 at Evangeline Downs.

After capturing his debut June 12 at Santa Anita

Park, he won the Shine Futurity by a head in 1:06.22

for 5 1/2 furlongs on a sloppy track.

"After one start he goes to Evangeline Downs; it's

late at night and it had been raining. It was pretty

tough conditions for a young horse in his second

start, so he seems to be taking it all in well and hold-

ing up mentally," Havens said of the colt owned by

ERJ Racing, Slam Dunk Racing, and Neil Haymes.

A $37,000 purchase by Dennis O'Neill and Erick

Johnson at the Ocala Breeders' Sale Co. March sale of

2-year-olds in training, Crosscheck Carlos is out of the

stakes-placed Summer Squall mare Weepnomore-

mylady. She hails from the family of grade I winner

and sire Al Mamoon, grade I winner La Gueriere,

and graded winner Lost Solider. The colt has earned

$78,600.

"Dennis O'Neill bought him for the partnership,

and he, as everybody knows, bought Nyquist and I'll

Have Another and horses like that, that are known

for being terrific looking horses," Havens said.

California Diamond, by leading Oregon sire Har-

bor the Gold, won the listed $125,000 Santa Anita

Juvenile going 5 1/2 furlongs in the stakes record

time of 1:03.53 July 9 for John Brocklebank, a promi-

nent bloodstock agent who trains the colt for Twin V

Ranch.

The California-bred colt, winner of his debut June

17 at Santa Anita for Dickman Legacy Ranch, is out

of the stakes-placed Slewdledo mare Carrie's a Jewel,

who has produced one other winner from two foals

to race.

"(His sire) is a good stallion up there and he's

known for getting these terrific-looking horses,"

Havens said, adding that the colt was a $60,000

RNA at the Barretts May sale and so far has earned

$108,600.

"Brocklebank and Dickman have split up their

horses and John is selling him for the account of Twin

V Farm, which is his brother's place."

Havens Bloodstock has nine horses consigned to

the Paddock Sale, which begins after the day's final

race at Del Mar. BH

DEL MAR OPENING WEEKEND ALL AROUND SUCCESSBy Blood-Horse Staff

Opening day of the Del Mar summer meet is an an-

nual rite for racing fans and many Southern Califor-

nians who normally do not attend horseracing events,

and this year’s opening weekend indicates increased

popularity at the seaside track near San Diego.

On-track attendance was up 13.4% for the July

15-17 weekend, and overall pari-mutuel handle was

up 14.3% for the meet that runs through Labor Day,

Sept. 5.

"It was great to see San Diegans and racing fans in

general respond so positively to our opening week,"

Del Mar Thoroughbred Club president Joe Harper

said. "Good crowds; good racing; good action at the

window—that’s what Del Mar's all about."

Topped by the opening-day crowd of 42,562, the

three-day attendance totaled 76,962 for a daily aver-

age of 25,654. Last year the three-day average was

22,613, according to track officials.

All-sources handle averaged $15,827,100 per day,

compared with last year’s $13,848,778 three-day

average.

California off-track wagering numbers showed

healthy gains of 12.3% based on an increase of about

$600,000 per day during the extended weekend. Out-

of-state wagering gained 22% and on-track wagering

was up 1.7%.

According to The Jockey Club Information Systems,

there were 267 starts in 30 races over the course of

the three days for an average of 8.90 runners per race,

compared with an average 8.79 during the first three

days of 2015 when 28 races attracted 246 starters. BH

DEPARTING NEARS $2M IN EARNINGSBy Tom LaMarra

Claiborne Farm’s 6-year-old War Front gelding

Departing moved closer to the $2 million earn-

ings mark, capturing the $102,800 Michael Schaefer

Memorial Stakes July 16 at Indiana Grand Racing &

Casino.

The first win in more than a year for Departing

came in his first start for trainer Tom Drury Jr., who

took over from Al Stall Jr. in May. Ridden by Brian

Hernandez Jr., Departing won the Schaefer, at one

mile and 70 yards, by two lengths over the Stall-

trained Rocket Time in 1:40.96 on a track rated fast.

"I just tried to stay out of his way," Drury said.

"He made $1.8 million without me. He seemed like

he was doing well going into the race. First time

you run one, you’re always afraid you’re going to

miss something or maybe not notice something. He

showed up and ran his race.

"He got a nice confidence-builder today. Hope-

fully it's something we can move forward off of.

And, words can't describe (winning a stakes for

Claiborne). You grow up in this business and you’re

always reading about Claiborne. It's just unbeliev-

able. To be able to win a stakes with (Departing) is

pretty special."

Departing, bred in Kentucky by Claiborne and

Adele Dilschneider out of the Pulpit mare Leave, is

now based at Skylight Training Center near Louis-

ville, Ky. The Schaefer win pushed his earnings to

$1,928,229 on a record of nine wins—six stakes—

five seconds, and four thirds in 26 starts. BH

POWER LEADS EUROPE'S FIRST-CROP SIRESBy Clive Webb-Carter

Halfway through the European turf season,

Coolmore's Power (Oasis Dream) leads first-

crop sires by earnings with nine winners and a

total of £95,488 ($126,677) in earnings.

Power's leading performer is the Aidan

O'Brien-trained Peace Envoy, who won the July 16

Jebel Ali Racecourse and Stables Anglesey Stakes

(Ire-III). Winner of the Rochestown Stakes in May

as well as being his sire's first winner, Peace En-

voy is one of Power's three stakes performers.

Biz Power finished runner-up in the Premio Pri-

mi Passi (Ity-III) at Milan while La Force was third

in the listed Premio Luciano Mantovani Stakes at

the same track.

Power, winner of the Abu Dhabi Irish Two

Thousand Guineas (Ire-I), looks to be the second

son of Oasis Dream to make an impact with their

first crop. Showcasing finished second on the

2014 first-crop table with 29 winners and three

stakes winners.

Power's leading rivals at this stage are Elzaam

(Redoute's Choice) with 10 winners and Sir

Prancealot (Tamayuz) with nine. Bated Breath

(Dansili), Mayson (Invincible Spirit), and Helmet

(Exceed And Excel) all have eight apiece. Frankel

(Galileo) has seven winners from nine runners, of

which two are stakes horses. BH

SARATOGA OVERNIGHT PURSES UPBy Tom LaMarra

The most lucrative North American race meet of

the year thus far in terms of overnight purses

begins July 22 with the opening of Saratoga Race

Course.

The purse for an open maiden special weight

event will be $83,000; an entry-level allowance race

will go for $85,000 and a second-level allowance test

for $90,000. The purses for a New York-bred maiden

special weight race and entry-level allowance race

are $73,000 and $75,000, respectively.

The minimum purse in the first condition book

is $25,000, for $12,500 claimers. Maiden-claimers in

for a $30,000 tag will compete for a $40,000 purse.

The highest allowance race purse in the first condi-

tion book is $93,000 with third-level conditions and a

optional claiming price of $80,000.

Saratoga, operated by the New York Racing Asso-

ciation, will again race six programs per week on a

Wednesday-through-Monday schedule through La-

bor Day, Sept. 5. Saratoga purses are supplemented

with revenue from video lottery terminals at Aque-

duct Racetrack.

Saratoga paid $42 million in total purses last

year, up from $41.4 million in 2014, according to The

Jockey Club Information Systems. The daily average

payout of $1,050,433 was up about $15,000 a day

from 2014. Field size last year averaged 8.36 horses

per race, up from 7.97 in 2014.

Maiden special weight races will go for $130,000,

which includes $72,000 for Kentucky Thoroughbred

Development Fund-registered horses, while en-

try-level allowance events are slotted at $140,000

($75,000 from the KTDF). BH

RACING

UP FROM THE GROUND

It was no accident that Belmont Park was

built on the Ronkonkoma moraine, the

mass of gravel and loose rock left behind by

retreating glaciers toward the end of the last

ice age—and better known today as central

Long Island.

But it wasn't the composition of the

ground that made Elmont the apple of the

Westchester Racing Association's eye. It was

the town's location. In the early 20th Centu-

ry the best place for wealthy New Yorkers

to build a racetrack was on any old pile of

gravel and loose rock, but only if it was, like

Elmont, located just beyond the reach of

City Hall.

Forty years earlier Saratoga Race Course

had—as singer/songwriter Tom Waits once said

of Louis Armstrong—sprung from the ground as

natural as a potato. Mineral springs gave Sara-

toga its "spa town" reputation, which prompted

the building of John Morrissey’s casino. This (in a

curiosity of the time) made building a racetrack

seem like a good idea.

Then, 152 years later, despite the encroach-

ment of conspicuous commerce and the visi-

ble hand of state government, Saratoga Race

Course remains as natural as a potato and one

of the best ideas in the history of American rac-

ing. Yet, today, many people believe Saratoga’s

unique allure is threatened by both its manage-

ment’s obsession with the bottom-line and a

governor perceived as being hostile to racing.

Just over a year ago NYRA CEO Christopher

Kay was being given the Internet’s "virtual pinata"

treatment for offenses such as cutting down fine

old trees and authorizing commercial obstructions

separating Saratoga’s paddock from its pilgrims.

Early last month John Hendrickson—Gov-

ernor Andrew Cuomo’s special adviser to the

NYRA Board—resigned his seat in protest and

slammed Cuomo to anyone who would listen.

Later in June the governor offered the soon-to-

be-expiring legislature a "take it or leave it" deal

that would have stiffed NYRA on many millions

of dollars the state owed to the association.

Fortunately, the legislature left it.

If Governor Cuomo keeps himself beyond

the reach of people who sincerely care about

Saratoga, at least Christopher Kay listens, and

is doing what he can. Among the improvements

touted by NYRA this year is the planting of some

850 new trees.

The great racing writer Joe Palmer once

noted, "… there should be, in racing or baseball

or business, an occasional gesture which is not

made solely toward the cashier."

And it was playwright Oscar Wilde who

defined a cynic as one “who knows the price of

everything and the value of nothing.” Saratoga

is no longer owned by the elite, but by all New

Yorkers. It’s time Mr. Cuomo realized this and

gave racing back to its people. BH
