HEARING DESIGNED TO 'BUILD BRIDGES'By Tom LaMarra
An April 28 hearing on federal legislation that
would put the United States Anti-Doping Agency
in charge of equine medication policy, testing, and
enforcement is designed in part to "build bridges,"
according to U.S. Rep. Paul Tonko of New York.
Tonko was at the forefront of the Thoroughbred
Horseracing Integrity Act of 2015, which he introduced
last spring. In an April 27 interview, Tonko said mem-
bers of the Congressional Horse Caucus who will take
part in the hearing at the U.S. Capitol "are very much
interested in the bill as are outsiders to the caucus."
Tonko said he would have liked the bill to have been
heard in a congressional subcommittee or committee
at this point because "there is a degree of urgency to
the bill." He said members of Congress he has spoken
with have been receptive to the legislation.
"Tons of bills are introduced every year (in Con-
gress)," Tonko said. "This one is in the mix. We're
doing everything we can to gain laser-sharp focus
on this issue. A hearing like this is at least a forum to
draw people's attention to the issue at hand." BH

FIRST US WINNER FOR ASTROLOGYBy Alastair Bull
Taylor Made Stallions' Astrology had his first Unit-
ed States winner, and second overall, when Capt.
Grider won at Keeneland April 27.
Capt. Grider overcame a three-length deficit well
into the stretch to nab Jersey Street (Maimonides) at
the wire in the 4 1/2 -furlong, $50,000 race for jockey
Paco Lopez.
"Congrats to Capt. Grider's breeder Kings and
Queens Farm and trainer Dante Zanelli," Taylor Made
Stallions stated via Twitter. "They are breeding-right
holders in Astrology."
Capt. Grider is from the first crop of Astrology.
By A.P. Indy out of Quiet Eclipse, by Quiet American,
Astrology won the Iroquois (gr. III) at 2 and was third
in the Preakness (gr. I) behind Shackleford and Ani-
mal Kingdom. Capt. Grider is out of the Dynaformer
mare Majestic Dy, whose progeny include Al Qasr, a
Peruvian Horse of the Year, and Delicate Dynamite,
second in the Kentucky Cup Distaff (gr. III).
He is the second winner for his sire, the first being
Mi Querido Capi, winner of a maiden race at Hipo-
dromo de las Americas in Mexico City April 1.
Astrology, who has two winners from three start-
ers, stands at Taylor Made, near Nicholasville, Ky., for
$6,500. BH

SALES UPDATE
POST-SALE DEALS GAVE OBS A BOOSTBy Ron Mitchell
Not long after a Scat Daddy colt consigned to
the recent Ocala Breeders' Sales Co.'s spring
sale of 2-year-olds in training left the sales ring
unsold, he was purchased privately for $180,000
in a transaction reflected in totals reported by
the sales company.
Greg Dodd, whose Southern Chase con-
signed the colt, said the final bid in the ring was
$190,000 and a short time later Mathis Stable
bought the colt.
Over the course of the four-day auction, "post-
sale" receipts totaled more than $3.3 million, rep-
resenting 6.3% of the sale's $52.5 million gross.
Florida law requires OBS to report post-sale
transactions on summaries and sale archives.
Since the post-sale price is generally within close
proximity of the final bid, there is little incentive
for the seller not to report such deals to the sales
company.
The commission is levied on either the final
RNA bid or the post-sale price. Post-sale purchas-
es are bound by the OBS Conditions of Sale, pro-
viding a level of protection to both
buyer and seller, OBS sales director
Tod Wojciechowski said.
At Keeneland, private sales are
not listed on the official sale sum-
maries, and it is up to the parties
involved whether they want a sale
to be included in a separate "RNA
to Sale" section of the website.
Regardless of whether it is publicly
disclosed, the sale is subject to the
Keeneland commission based on the
private sale, not the RNA bid price.
For Keeneland's January horses
of all ages sale, 63 private sales were
reported on the website.
"Anything that appears on the
sales summary has to have gone
through the sales ring," said Keene-
land sales director Geoffrey Russell.
Fasig-Tipton includes the post-sale purchases
on its daily results when they take place on the
day the horse goes through the ring and if it hap-
pens before the summary is released. Otherwise,
according to Fasig-Tipton president and chief ex-
ecutive officer Boyd Browning Jr., the sale is not
included in the totals and it is between buyer and
seller without the sales company being involved.
Browning said Fasig-Tipton attempted to
adjust sale results as post-sale transactions were
reported following an auction, but the reporting
process became a logistical issue and was aban-
doned.
Like OBS, Fasig-Tipton must comply with the
Florida law on post-sale transactions at its one-
day March sale, but Browning said very few of
those take place at that sale.
While Fasig-Tipton misses out on potentially
higher commissions when a post-sale deal is great-
er than the hammer price and it doesn't go through
the sales company, Browning said the sales com-
pany is "trying to facilitate commerce and we are
happy to participate in that process." BH

UNUSUAL WORK BY JAPAN'S DERBY RUNNERBy Jennie Rees
Japan's Kentucky Derby (gr. I) challenger Lani
doesn't believe in training the expected way.
The UAE Derby (UAE-II) winner declined to kick
into full gear for jockey Yutaka Take at Churchill
Downs April 27 until after a quarter-mile of what was
designed to be a five-eighths work.
He picked it up midway through the turn to get an
official time of :37 2/5, galloping out a half-mile in :50
3/5. Churchill clockers caught the first eighth of the
timed portion in :14.
According to interpreter Kieta Tanaka, agent for
Lani's owners, that's how the son of Tapit can be
sometimes.
"He was a little shy, shyer than what I thought, for
accelerating," Take said through Tanaka. "But after
the quarter pole, he did a good gallop for two fur-
longs and after the finish pole."
Tanaka said that "even back home, he sometimes
does something like what you saw this morning. It's
not a big concern."
Take said Lani's temperament is such that he's
not always willing to
run, but "if he wants
to run on Derby
Day, we have a big
chance."
The jockey said
he wouldn't know
which Lani will show
up until they break
from the gate.
If Lani, a Ken-
tucky-bred son of
the super stallion
Tapit, wins the Der-
by, it will be with the
most unorthodox
training, by Ameri-
can standards, since
Canonero II came
from Venezuela
and proved in 1971
that there is more
than one method to
success.
Lani, who has
been at Churchill Downs since April 3, was supposed
to work five-eighths last week after galloping a mile.
But that training session also started extremely
slowly before the colt picked up the pace on the turn,
his final 1:06 time barely making the cutoff to have a
published workout.
That work was by design to be devoid of speed,
his camp said, adding this work would have more
speed.
Take also rode the first Japanese-based horse to
run in the Derby, Ski Captain, who finished 14th in
the 1995 race won by Thunder Gulch.
"For a very long time, I have been wishing to ride
in the Derby again," the jockey said through Tana-
ka. "The time has come now, and I'm very excited
about it. ... For the jockeys riding outside the U.S., it's
extremely difficult to even get a ride in the Kentucky
Derby. So I understand how precious the experience
this time will be."
Lani taking on America's best 3-year-olds in the
Derby is a big story in Japan. A video crew from
Western Japan's Kansai Telecasting Corp. was in town
working on a Lani documentary. BH

METABOSS RETURNS WITH DICKINSONBy Blood-Horse Staff
Trainer Michael Dickinson, who retired seven years
ago but announced his return to training last year,
won with the first horse he saddled upon his return
April 2 at Laurel Park.
He'll try to make it two-for-two when he saddles
grade III winner Metaboss, who hasn't raced in 13
months, in a grass allowance race at Laurel April 29.
Metaboss, who won the grade III El Camino Real
Derby early last year, underwent surgery last spring
to remove an ankle chip. Owned by a partnership
that includes California-based bloodstock agent
Mersad Metanovic and Nevada-based Daniel Preiss,
Metaboss was injured while training up to the 2015
American Turf (gr. IIT) at Churchill Downs.
Purchased by Metanovic for $10,000 at the 2012
Keeneland November breeding stock sale, Metaboss,
a 4-year-old Street Boss colt out of the Free House
mare Spinning Yarns, has been training at Dickinson's
reborn Tapeta Farm in Maryland since last November.
Dickinson is known for successfully bringing hors-
es back from lengthy layoffs, including Da Hoss in
the 1998 Breeders' Cup Mile (gr. IT), which he won off
one start since a victory in the same race two years
earlier. BH
ROYAL ASCOT CONFIRMED FOR MOTION FILLYBy Sarah Troxell
Royal Ascot racegoers will see a very different Miss
Temple City this year than the one who ran fourth
in the 2015 Coronation Stakes (Eng-I).
Trainer Graham Motion has confirmed the Temple
City filly will head back to the Royal meeting, aimed at
the Duke of Cambridge (Eng-II) June 15.
In her most recent start, she beat males in the
Maker's 46 Mile (gr. IT) at Keeneland.
"She has grown and looks totally different to what
she looked like last year," Motion said. "She is bigger
and has much more weight on her. She has gone from
being a nice big filly to basically looking like a colt.
"She is really doing well, and it is all systems go for
Royal Ascot."
Miss Temple City is expected to arrive the Friday
before Royal Ascot and stay at David Lanigan's yard,
as she did in 2015.
Representing part-owners The Club, Sean Feld said
his filly recovered well from her Keeneland race.
He said if all goes well at Ascot, she will be aimed
for the Falmouth (Eng-I) at Newmarket July 8. BH

AN EVENTFUL NEWMARKET CLASSICBy Tom Hall
Saturday marks the 208th running of the English
Two Thousand Guineas (Eng-I) at the track on the
Newmarket Heath, and this year's probable favorite
is a Kentucky-bred son of War Front from the Bally-
doyle Stable of Aidan O' Brien, Air Force Blue.
In 1980 the 172nd running featured a pair of U.S.
breds whose paths first crossed at the 1978 Keene-
land sales in Lexington, Ky. On a hot July Tuesday
afternoon, Hip 218, a medium-sized bay Florida-bred
son of In Reality—Tamerett, by Tim Tam, from the
Mare Haven Farm consignment of Dr. William O.
Reed, brought $225,000 from H.L. Cottrill. During the
evening session, Hip 311, a Kentucky-bred bay colt
consigned by Claiborne Farm, fetched considerably
more. The smallish, blazed-faced son of Northern
Dancer—Special, by Forli, went to B.B.A. Ireland for
$1.3 million, then the second-high-
est-priced yearling on record.
The In Reality colt, named Known
Fact, went to Prince Khalid Abdullah's
Juddmonte Farms and trainer Jeremy
Tree in England. The Northern Dancer
colt landed with Stavros Niarchos and
trainer Francois Boutin in France and
was given the name Nureyev.
Two years later the pair lined up
for the Two Thousand Guineas, the
first of the English classics, where un-
defeated Nureyev was the favorite in
the field of 13.
While the choices employed by
Nureyev's jockey, Philippe Paquet, in
a furious attempt to extricate himself
from traffic and extend the colt's per-
fect record, resulted in him getting to
the post a neck ahead of Known Fact,
his tactics ultimately cost the colt the
race. The severe interference suffered
two furlongs from the finish by third-
place finisher Posse (owned and bred
by American Ogden Mills Phipps, who
also bred and owned that year’s group I One Thou-
sand Guineas winner Quick as Lightning) led to stew-
ards disqualifying Nureyev to last, moving Known
Fact to first and Posse to second. Paquet was handed
a seven-day suspension.
On the strength of his gutsy Guineas effort and his
winning performance in the Queen Elizabeth II (Eng-
II) run at Ascot in the fall, Known Fact was honored as
champion miler in England. Although he never raced
again after the Guineas debacle, Nureyev was named
France's champion miler and was off to stud.
Both European champion milers ended up stand-
ing at stud in Kentucky, where each had a successful
career. Known Fact sired 54 stakes winners from 612
starters (8.8%), and his progeny earned more than
$34.2 million.
Nureyev became a breed-shaper. He sired 136
stakes winners from 654 starters (20.8%), and his
progeny amassed more than $79.8 million in
earnings. BH

COMMISSIONERS NAMED TO REVAMPED KHRCBy Blood-Horse Staff
Former commissioner Frank Kling will return to chair
a revamped Kentucky Horse Racing Commission,
Kentucky Gov. Matt Bevin announced April 27.
The new commission will go from 16 members
under former Gov. Steve Beshear to a dozen com-
missioners under Bevin.
In another change, a revised structure will grant
voting powers to three ex-officio members: the sec-
retary of the Public Protection Cabinet, secretary of
the Tourism, Arts and Heritage Cabinet, and secre-
tary of the Cabinet for Economic Development.
Bevin said the new commission structure will
enhance the focus on one of Kentucky's signature
industries.
New commissioners include retired Hall of Fame
jockey Pat Day, Breeders' Cup director Bret Jones,
and Ken Jackson, founding member of the North
American Standardbred Breeders Association.
"These individuals encompass the character, com-
petence, and commitment traits we need to elevate
Kentucky's horse racing industry," Bevin said. "We
are fortunate to have men and women of high calib-
er and integrity willing to serve in these roles."
The announced appointees are Frank Kling, John
Roach, Lesley Howard, Dr. David Richardson, Mark
Simendinger, Brereton C. Jones, Jr., Pat Day, Doug
Hendrickson, Kerry Cauthen, Kenneth Jackson, Ger-
ald Holt, and Dr. Stuart Brown. BH
COMPETITIVE STALLION MARKETPLACEBy Tara Madgwick
The major Australian farms have all released ser-
vice fees in recent weeks, revealing a competitive
marketplace.
Coolmore's champion sire Fastnet Rock lists as
private, with four other stallions priced just below
him at Aus$110,000 ($84,883).
Those sharing that fee are Darley's Exceed And
Excel and Medaglia d'Oro, and Arrowfield's Redoute's
Choice, along with his son, Snitzel.
The first three's fees remain the same, while Snit-
zel's has been increased from Aus$88,000 ($67,906).
Lonhro, who has made good headway with his
North American progeny, is next at Aus$88,000,
followed by Sebring at Aus$77,000 ($59,418), Not A
Single Doubt at Aus$71,500 ($55,174) and More Than
Ready at Aus$66,000 ($50,930).
Not A Single Doubt has had a benchmark year,
with progeny earnings topping Aus$10 million ($7.57
million) for 2015-16, and 10 stakes winners, headed
by group I winners Extreme Choice, Single Gaze, and
Good Project. As a result, his fee has shot up from
Aus$33,000 ($25,465).
The most expensive newcomers are on Coolmore's
roster: 2015 Golden Slipper (Aus-I) winner Vancouver
(Medaglia d'Oro), priced at Aus$66,000 ($50,930), and
2015 Blue Diamond (Aus-I) winner Pride Of Dubai
(Street Cry), at Aus$55,000 ($42,441). BH

INDUSTRYANALYSIS with Tom LaMarra
HISTORY SHOWS CHURCHILL PRODUCES
The last one-day Breeders' Cup was held at
Churchill Downs in 2006, and to call it a fi-
nancial success would be an understatement.
The full-card on-track handle for the day
totaled a record $18.25 million, up 23.8% from
the previous year at Belmont Park, and 11.7%
higher than the previous on-track wagering mark
of $16.34 million recorded in 2003 at Santa Anita
Park. All-sources handle of $140.33 million blew
away previous years' figures and rose 13.1% from
2005, when the previous $123.97 million record
had been established.
Attendance of
75,132 in 2006 was
third-highest for a one-
day Cup—but the two
best figures—80,452
(1998) and 76,043
(2000)—also came at
Churchill.
As for the two-day
events that began in
2007, Churchill held
them back to back in
2010 and 2011. The
Kentucky track set the
two-day attendance re-
cord of 114,353 in 2010,
and two-day records for on-track handle ($22.5
million) and total handle ($173.85 million).
When the event returns to Churchill in three
years, will records be set again?
The Cup returned to Kentucky in 2015, at
first-time host Keeneland, after three consec-
utive years at Santa Anita in California. Even
though Keeneland, because of its size, relied
heavily on upscale temporary accommodations,
on-track wagering over two days increased 2.5%
from the previous year at expansive Santa Anita.
The tip-off that Breeders' Cup had an ex-
cellent chance of returning to Churchill in
2018 came the week of last year's event, when
Churchill officials willingly confirmed they were
preparing a formal bid.
"We very much want to be the host of future
Breeders' Cups," John Asher, Churchill's vice
president of communications, said in October.
"We hope our history with the event works in
our favor. We also have a facility that now, more
than ever suits the Breeders' Cup."
Since 2011 Churchill has spent $67 million on
capital improvements, related in part to premi-
um seating and enhancing the customer expe-
rience, both of which are dear to the hearts of
Breeders' Cup officials. Churchill president Kevin
Flanery said more
facility improve-
ments could be
made between
now and Novem-
ber 2018, while
Louisville mayor
Greg Fischer noted
the city has added
5,000 hotel rooms
since 2011.
Fischer already
has predicted
the 2018 Cup will
set records. That
could be based on
the fact each year
Churchill continues building—financially and
otherwise—on Kentucky Derby (gr. I) week.
Churchill Downs Inc. last year reported
Derby-week earnings were up $6 million from
2014, when the week generated about $8
million. The Kentucky Derby program alone
produced $10.7 million in purse money paid to
horsemen during the track's three 2015 meets,
company officials said.
Financial details of contracts between Breed-
ers' Cup and host tracks aren't released, though
officials repeatedly have said the most financially
successful Cups have been at Churchill. BH
