HERO LOOK STAYS UNBEATEN CHC & STC CREATE SING S RICHEST RACE
MONDAY, OCTOBER 13, 2014 732-747-8060 $ TDN Home Page Click Here HERO LOOK STAYS UNBEATEN CHC & STC CREATE SING=S RICHEST RACE Hero Look (Ire) (Lope de Vega {Ire}) took his record to a perfect three-for-three with a 2 1/4-length victory in Sunday=s G2 Gran Criterium at San Siro, becoming his freshman sire=s second group stakes winner. Hero Look, who opened his account with an impressive show at the end of June over 1200 meters and strolled home in a conditions race over 1500 meters, was the top choice of the four juveniles trained by Stefano Botti and the dominant trainer=s only concern was the heavy ground. The colt stalked the honest pace set by stablemate Ginwar (Ity) (Martino Alonso {Ire}), moved to challenge in the last 400 meters and outran Ginwar, while Azari (GB) (Azamour {Ire}), who failed to respond when the first two kicked for home, stayed on for third. AThe ground bothered him, but he won because he is much better than his rivals,@ said winning jockey Fabio Branca. AHero Look is the best juvenile I=ve ever ridden and probably a first-class colt over faster ground.@ Owner Felice Villa was celebrating her first win in the Gran Criterium. AWith a colt like him we can dream big,@ Villa said. AThe Italian 2000 Guineas is probably a lowprofile target, but we have all the winter to think about it.@ Lope De Vega (Shamardal) won the 2010 G1 Poule d'Essai des Poulains and G1 Prix du Jockey Club. He has also been represented by G3 Sirenia S. winner Burnt Sugar (Ire). Hero Look=s dam, multiple stakes placed Roscoff (Daylami {Ire}), is from a speedy female line developed by Kilfrush Stud. Cont. p3 The running of the richest race in Singapore--worth S$3.05 million (US$2,389,486)--was announced Saturday by Teo Ah Khing, Chairman of the China Horse Club (CHC) and Tan Guong Ching, Chairman of the Singapore Turf Club (STC) at the 2014 CECF Yangtze Delta Region Gala Dinner in Shanghai, China. The new racing event will be one of the highlights of the CECF Singapore, the first international lifestyle, social, business and Thoroughbred racing event targeted to a Chinese audience. It will be held Feb. 2022, 2015 during the Chinese New Year celebrations. The theme of the 2015 CECF Singapore is >East Meets West= which is designed to build off of the current CECF 2014 which was themed as >Bringing China to the World and the World to China.= Many activities will be offered during the festival, including an invitation only CECF Singapore Gala Dinner, a showpiece raceday and the opportunity to race a horse in Singapore=s richest race. AThere has never been a Thoroughbred inspired international event designed to cater for the unique requirements of a niche market from Mainland China. The CECF Singapore changes that,@ stated Ah Khing. AThe concept of drawing a population of Chinese, including ultrahigh networth Chinese, overseas with a sophisticated lifestyle and social festival is very exciting. An event of this stature would not be possible without the continued support and vision of the Singapore Turf Club, its chairman, Mr. Tan, and senior management.@ Cont. p10 LA TIA TALLIES ATHENIA SCORE The Armando De la cerda-trained La Tia (City Place) annexed her third graded win of the season yesterday in Belmont=s GIII Athenia S. in pillar-to-post fashion. Quick out of the gate, La Tia assumed her usual position at the head of affairs through splits of :25.22 and :48.83 La Tia (inside) over the yielding NYRA Photo turf. Still in charge at the top of the stretch, she began to open up at the top of the lane and dug in to hold off a rallying Byrama (GB) (Byron {GB}) and Overheard (Macho Uno), who was closing from far back.

Largely ignored by the betting public entering this test, Brisanto had the pedigree credentials to shine, as a son of the 2008 G2 German 1000 Guineas winner Briseida and he was able to dent some bigger reputations and state his case for next year=s domestic Classics. Fourth on debut over 7 1/2 furlongs at Dusseldorf Aug. 3, the bay was off the mark over this track and trip last time Sept. 13 and raced keenly close to the pace after a tardy start. Sent past Sherlock to the lead approaching the furlong pole, the homebred was quickly in the clear en route to a decisive Brisanto success. Marc Ruhl 8 Copyright Thoroughbred Daily News.

Eight Chinese jockeys faced international reignsmen Darryll Holland and David Flores in the Zhejian Nine Dragons Hills National Jockey Challenge--2014 CECF, but the former were victorious sweeping three of the four contests with only Holland=s performance in the first race--outfinishing Flores in second--the only loss for the Chinese. Multiple international racing jurisdictions, including Racing NSW, STC, Mauritius Turf Club, Irish Turf Club and France Galop all provided senior staff to help run the event.

GPW AROUND THE WORLD F-T TEXAS SALE TODAY The Fasig-Tipton Texas Yearlings and Fall Mixed Sale will be held Monday in Grand Prairie, with bidding scheduled to get underway at 11 a.m. The sale begins with 130 catalogued yearlings, followed by a selection of broodmares, weanlings and horses in training. There are a total of 186 lots catalogued. The auction, which had previously been held during the summer, is making its first autumn appearance. AWe have added a little of everything,@ noted Tim Boyce, Fasig-Tipton=s southwest director of sales. AThere are yearlings and a weanling from Louisiana and Oklahoma, a broodmare and two racehorses coming off wins in their last starts.@ Boyce added, >Between our date change, the positive landscape for Texas racing, and interest in the sale from all around the region, we are looking forward to a big day.@ During last year=s summer sale, 97 yearlings sold for $1,255,100. The average was $12,939 and the median was $8,000--both increases from 2012. A pair of fillies shared the auction=s top price when both sold to Tom Durant for $65,000 from the Lane=s End Texas consignment. Yesterday=s Results: 8th-BEL, $85,000, Alw, Opt. Clm.

Much of the pre-race hype swirled around GI Florida Derby winner Constitution (Tapit), but at the end of the 1 1/16-mile affair, it was Easter Gift who earned the victory. While favored Constitution stumbled at the start, Easter Gift exited the stalls in good order and was taken to the back of the six-horse field. MONDAY, OCTOBER 13, 2014 Despite the awkward start, Constitution was hustled to the front and showed the way through opening splits of :23.87 and :46.96. Approaching the quarter pole, the favorite maintained a narrow advantage over a pesky Spa City Fever, while Easter Gift gradually cut into the front-runners advantage. Collared by Spa City Fever at the head of the lane, Constitution tried to repel a host of challengers, but eventually retreated as Easter Gift continued to close from the center of the track. In high gear late, Easter Gift finished a head in front of St Moose, with Spa City Fever back in third. Constitution reported home fourth, beaten less than two lengths. Winner of the GIII Smarty Jones S. at three, Easter Gift added a score in the Mountainview H. at four before closing out the season with a third in the GI Clark H. in November. Eighth after a troubled trip in the July 27 GII Monmouth Cup, Easter Gift was a well-beaten sixth most recently in the restricted Alydar S. at the Spa Aug. 17.

Runner-up in her European finale in the Listed Prix Marchand d=or June 13, the sophomore--given first time Lasix--was 8-5 for her U.S. bow. Breaking well from her outside post, the Irish-bred was eased back to ninth as Gratitude (Elusive Quality) and Sheza Heartbreaker (Arch) argued the issue through an opening quarter in :24.43. Eager to go as Irad Ortiz, Jr. gave the cue leaving the quarter pole, the bay was fanned out six wide turning for home, swept past the tiring leaders and cruised to the front under her own steam to gain the comfortable win over closer Hope Cross (Ire) (cape Cross {Ire}).

She opened her 4year-old account with a good second when wide to Stormy Lucy (Stormy Atlantic) in the GII Santa Ana S. at Santa Anita Mar.16, but has not had smooth sailing since, with four unplaced efforts including a rank seventh behind Irish Mission (Giant=s Causeway) in the GIII Glen Falls S. at the Spa Aug. 31 most recently. Favored to find the winner=s circle for this drop in class, Emotional Kitten settled against the pine in midfield as the leader set moderate splits. Going extremely well while saving all the real estate, she moved within striking distance on the far turn and sprinted clear in upper stretch to claim the victory.

SET TO MUSIC (g, 3, Dynaformer--Pussycat Doll {MGISW, $797,183}, by Real Quiet), a lackluster fifth in a 6 1/2-furlong main track test at Parx Aug. 24, made the transition to turf with aplomb, taking a 1 1/16-mile affair at Laurel Sept. 19. Given a 9-2 chance to remain undefeated on the sod, the gelding stalked the early pace in fourth through a half in :51 and three-quarters in 1:16 1/5. Brought out three wide for the stretch drive, Set to Music battled late with Bingo Kitten (Kitten=s Joy) and was a nose ahead of that rival on the line.

Displaying a good turn of foot in the early going of the nine-furlong GI Wood Memorial Apr. 5, the chestnut tired late to be fourth behind Wicked Strong (Hard Spun). Schivarelli broke with the front rank here and was throttled back to third as pacesetter Mio d=Oro (Medaglia d=Oro) set the pace through an opening quarter in :22.58.

Originally from Epsom, England, Grant has been working in the Thoroughbred industry for 25 years, and has spent the last 17 working in the United States. Williamson previously worked at Vinery, where he served as Stallion Director. He joins Three Chimneys from Adena Springs where he was responsible for stallion season sales. “I am thrilled to be joining the team at Three Chimneys at this exciting time in the farm’s history, and I look forward to welcoming breeders to see the entire stallion roster, particularly our two exciting additions, Strong Mandate and Will Take Charge,” Williamson said. “They are both fantastic looking horses with top class form and pedigrees, and are ready for viewing. I joined Three Chimneys because I believe in the stallions, the people, and the farm’s vision for the future. I’d like to personally invite every breeder out there to call me or come visit the stallions at their earliest convenience and give Three Chimneys the opportunity to earn your business.” Anoakia S. cont.
