FIRST SEASON SIRE RUNNERS - PAGE 25 | YESTERDAY'S RESULTS - PAGE 21

Trainer Charlie Appleby believes

that his champion sprinter Blue

Point will be highly sought after

by Australian breeders, labelling

the bay as the potential second coming of his

super sire Shamardal (Giant’s Causeway) as the

champion sprinter prepares to stand his first

season at stud in Victoria later this year.

Four-time Group 1 winner Blue Point,

who ended his career by emulating Choisir’s

(Danehill Dancer) historic sprinting double

at Royal Ascot by taking the King’s Stand

Stakes (Gr 1, 5f ) and the Diamond Jubilee

Stakes (Gr 1, 6f ) last year, will stand at

Darley’s Northwood Park farm in Seymour

at a fee of $44,000 (inc GST). He has already

served one book at the operation’s Kildangan

Stud in Ireland. Continued on page 2>>

“If you wanted to have a carbon

copy of a Shamardal, he is the closest you’re ever going to get to it at the

moment,” Appleby told ANZ Bloodstock News from his Newmarket base.

“We’ve been very lucky to have a lot of Shamardals go through our system.

Like any good stallion, he does stamp his stock.

“We were very lucky at the back end of last year, we got to see

Shamardal and Blue Point both opposite one another in the stallion boxes

at Kildangan and it certainly was a

mini me or a younger Shamardal,

basically. Obviously, on the

passing of Shamardal, I don’t think

there’s any better horse out there

that can hopefully fill his boots.”

Shamardal died last month

at Kildangan Stud at the age of 18,

having begun his stallion career

in the Hunter Valley in 2005 after

being retired mid-season in Europe.

A winner of four Group 1 features,

including the Prix du Jockey Club

(Gr 1, 2100m), he served five

seasons in Australia in addition to

his 14 seasons at Kildangan.

To date, Shamardal has produced 146 individual stakes winners

worldwide, including 25 Group 1 winners, with Able Friend, Captain

Sonador, Delectation, Faint Perfume and Maybe Discreet his Australian-

bred Group 1 winners. Others of note include Lope De Vega, the sire of

Australian feature victors Santa Ana Lane, Gytrash and Vega Magic; Hong

Kong enigma Pakistan Star, and Appleby’s own hugely exciting prospect

Pinatubo.

Blue Point is one of only two sons

of Shamardal confirmed to be standing in Australia for the upcoming

breeding season, with Swettenham Stud’s Puissance De Lune the other.

Yarradale Stud’s Gingerbread Man and Crackerjack King for Wyndholm

Park are others who are likely to be confirmed for the 2020 season.

Appleby is busily preparing for the return of British racing next month

with a team that includes last season’s champion two-year-old Pinatubo

(Shamardal) and 2018 Melbourne Cup (Gr 1, 3200m) winner Cross

Counter (Teofilo), among a raft of potential stars. However, it is clear that

Blue Point is a horse close to his

heart, despite the fact it has been

almost a year since the galloper

walked out of his Newmarket

stables.

“For me, his consistency was

pretty much second-to-none,”

Appleby said. “Breaking his

maiden on his first start and going

on throughout that first season as a

two-year-old and winning a Group

2 and being placed in two Group

1s subsequently. His hallmark is

his consistency throughout his

career, from two to

five. Bar his maiden

and his second start, a

novice which he won

by 11 lengths with

James McDonald up

that day, he’s only ever

campaigned at Group

level.”

A sign of that

consistency is the fact that Blue Point only missed the top four twice in

his career. He finished last of nine in the Chairman’s Sprint Prize (Gr 1,

1200m) in Hong Kong in 2018, with circumstances firmly against him

throughout, while later that year he finished midfield as favourite in the

July Cup (Gr 1, 6f), with the colt appearing to travel too keenly over the

undulating Newmarket July course.

In addition to his four Group 1 wins, he was placed at Group 1 level

four times, while he also won two Group 2 events and three Group 3s.

While he broke through at Group 1 level as a four-year-old, taking the

King’s Stand Stakes for the first time, it was his five-year-old season where

he came of age. He won three races in Dubai, including the Al Quoz Sprint

(Gr 1, 5f) on Dubai World Cup night, before he closed out his career with

that famous Royal Ascot double.

Personally, I think he’s

Cross Counter SPORTPIX

Page 6: APPLEBY: BLUE POINT BLUE HEN ... - ANZ Bloodstock News · moment,” Appleby told ANZ Bloodstock News from his Newmarket base. “We’ve been very lucky to have a lot of Shamardals

“We were

lucky enough with him that Harry Angel retired

the year before and that allowed us to keep him

in training that extra year,” Appleby said. “As we

all know, nowadays, we don’t get to see these

horses race up until their five-year-old year.

He was one of the few that had come through

the system that was still here at the age of five

and therefore it allowed us to see him as the

finished article.

“His final start for us was quite something,

achieving the Group 1 double at Royal Ascot in

the King’s Stand and the Diamond Jubilee. I’m

never going to be able to get away from that as

the ultimate pinnacle of his career.

“In Australia, you can back horses up

quicker and you see it quite regularly at the

top level, horses backing up quite quickly. We

wouldn’t see it very often here. Our style of racing is different and our

tracks can be quite testing. So for it to be achieved, especially at Group 1

level, I’m grateful we were able to witness that.”

Appleby has become something of a revered figure in Australian

racing in recent years due to his frequent raids of the features down under.

The Brit has already walked away with many of the best staying contests in

Melbourne and Sydney, in addition to some of the world’s biggest races; it

is sometimes hard to remember that he has only been one of Godolphin’s

two primary UK trainers since mid-2013.

The 44-year-old, though, is excited by the prospect of having influence

in Australia in another way, by producing a potential top stallion that, on

paper, looks well-suited to the Australian market.

“I felt a bit old there the other day walking around the yard because I

had trained quite a few of the mares that now have their foals in training

with us,” he said. “And now, thankfully, we’re playing a part in the stallion

industry as well! It’s what we strive to achieve as trainers: when you’re

on the level that we are hopefully competing at, the aim is to produce

stallions and hopefully good race mares too, and then you hope to see

their progeny go on and achieve it on the race track.

“It’s exciting to produce a stallion but it’s more exciting to hope that

you’ve produced a good one. As we know, there are plenty of stallions out

there but to have that horse that is going to potentially shape racing and

keep it to a very high standard, it’s what we hope Blue Point is going to

achieve.

“Personally, I think he’s going to go down well because he’s just a

horse that has an abundance of natural pace. He’s a strong individual,

short-coupled, a proper sprinter and I think he’s going to tick a lot of boxes

for the Australian market.”

While Blue Point was by a Darley stallion in Shamardal, he was bred

and raised by Oak Lodge and Springfield House Stud in Kildare. Offered

at the 2014 Tattersalls December Foal Sale, he was purchased by Ebor

Bloodstock for 110,000 gns (AUD$216,000). He was then pinhooked in

Book 1 of the 2015 Tattersalls October Yearling Sale, purchased for 200,000

gns (AUD$392,000) by John Ferguson Bloodstock on behalf of Godolphin.

Appleby recalls: “He was one of the sharper yearlings when he came

to us. I was fortunate enough to be off at the sales when he was purchased,

as it happens. So I saw him go through the sales ring. He was a likeable

individual and that’s why we went ahead and purchased him.

“When he came into the yard, he was a very forward-going yearling

and then obviously, when he turned two, he found everything naturally

very easy to do. He was one of the first two-year-olds that William Buick

would have jumped on at home and he liked him right from the get-go, he

said that he had so much natural pace. He then started his career in the

June of his two-year-old career and went on from there.

“He was a natural athlete, from the word go. Willie Ryan (former Derby

winning jockey) used to ride him on a daily basis throughout his two-year-

old and three-year-old career and he said that he’s one of the quickest he’s

sat on; he rode so many good horses through the years as a jockey, mainly

riding for Henry Cecil, so that means something.”

Appleby has had plenty of success with headline horses like Hawkbill

(Kitten’s Joy), Wild Illusion (Dubawi), Masar (New Approach), Blair

House (Pivotal) and Jungle Cat (Iffraaj) as well as current stable stars like

Ghaiyyath (Dubawi), Old Persian (Dubawi), Barney Roy (Excelebration),

Cross Counter and Pinatubo. However, he places Blue Point at the top of

the pecking order.

“I’ve been asked that a few times now and I think he’s probably

number one,” Appleby said. “We’ve been very lucky in the horses we’ve

had on hand in my career as a trainer, but I think he is that top horse. He

was one of those horses that excited you in the mornings; you’re excited

to watch him work, you’re excited to see him as an individual and watch

him gallop. He was always such an impressive galloper, very honest and

genuine and always wanted to please.

“The thing about him is that he did it in the afternoons as well. We’ve

all been around horses long enough to have seen plenty of good horses

in the mornings but they just don’t seem to bring it to the table in the

afternoons. He did it AM and PM, he was out there to please you.”

Nine for Spill The BeansLate Aquis Farm stallion Spill The Beans

(Snitzel) extended his lead at the top of the

first season sires by winners list when Isis

Brumby (2 g ex Overdel by Bel Esprit) defeated

the older horses at Bundaberg yesterday.

Sent out as an odds-on favourite, Isis Brumby

pulled clear for a three and three-quarter

length success over Miss Taylor (Drumbeats)

with Marcheky Boy (Tycoon Ruler) third,

almost five lengths away. Bred and raced by

Leo Ricciardi’s Isis Park Thoroughbreds, Isis

Brumby has now had two starts for a win and

a second.

Perth Winter Thoroughbred Sale forced onlineEntries have opened for the 2020 Perth Winter

Thoroughbred Sale, which will be conducted

online via the new Magic Millions Online

sales portal. Bidding will be conducted from

June 24 until June 26, with the sale open to

all thoroughbreds - weanlings, yearlings,

racehorses and breeding stock will all be

accepted. "We have made the decision to

conduct this annual sale online this year to

offer both vendors and buyers certainty,"

Magic Millions WA Manager David Houston

reported."This is the most effective way of

trading horses here in Western Australia before

the start of the breeding season, taking into

account the current restrictions." To facilitate

vendors being able to promote their lots to a

large online audience, the entry fee of $440 (inc

GST) for the auction will include provision for a

photo and video to be professionally produced

by a Magic Millions-appointed photographer

and videographer.

Champagne Cuddlesadded to Magic Millions National SaleThe Magic Millions National Broodmare Sale

has received another star entry with Champagne

Cuddles (Not A Single Doubt) set to go through

the sales ring. Four-time Group 1 placegetter

Champagne Cuddles was retired after suffering a

career-ending injury in the Magic Millions Sprint

(1200m) at the Gold Coast in January. The Bjorn

Baker-trained mare won four of her 26 starts,

including the Breeders’ Classic (Gr 2, 1200m) and

Gold Coast Guineas (Gr 3, 1200m), and earned

$1.46 million in prize-money. Champagne

Cuddles joins Group 1 winners Viddora (I Am

Invincible) and Unforgotten (Fastnet Rock) as

headline lots for the National Sale in late July.

Victorem set for StradbrokeJenny Graham is targeting the Stradbroke

Handicap (Gr 1, 1400m) with Kosciusko

(1200m) runner-up Victorem (I Am Invincible)

after he passed a mandatory barrier trial test

yesterday. The dual stakes winner bucked

shortly after leaving the stalls in the BRC Sprint

(Gr 3, 1200m), finishing at the tail of the field

of ten. The five-year-old will now press on to

the Victory Stakes (Gr 2, 1200m) on Saturday

before a tilt at the Stradbroke for which he

has been allocated 52.5 kilograms. “All being

well that is the way we will go," Graham said.

"It looks like we should get a Stradbroke start

even if a couple win exempt races in the next

fortnight. Victorem is going well and it was just

unfortunate what happened in the BRC Sprint."

Two for Moody with MatamataPeter Moody recorded his second winner

since his comeback to the training ranks when

Matamata (Savabeel) scored at Moe. The trainer

of Black Caviar (Bel Esprit) restarted his training

career earlier this month in on-course stables at

Pakenham after spending four years away from

training. Moody’s first runner back, Shepard

(Sea The Moon), won at Ballarat on May 10 while

Matamata was just his third runner since his return.

Like Shepard, Matamata was ridden by Luke Nolen

in the Nextra Moe Maiden Plate (1600m). The pair

were best remembered for their association with

Black Caviar, who was unbeaten in 25 starts with

Nolen in the saddle for 22 of those occasions.

Moody stepped away from training in 2016 after he

was suspended for six months as a result of Lidari

(Acclamation) returning a cobalt reading above

the permitted level, following his second place in

the 2014 Turnbull Stakes (Gr 1, 2000m)

Melham to plead not guiltyJockey Ben Melham will plead not guilty to

betting charges against him and his partner

Karlie Dales following a directions hearing at

the Victorian Racing Tribunal. Melham was

issued with seven charges by Racing Victoria

last month into alleged betting activities over a

six-month period, which included giving false

or misleading evidence during an interview.

Many of Melham’s bets were allegedly made

through the account of Dales, a registered

owner, who was also charged with giving false

or misleading information to stewards. The VRT

heard yesterday that Melham and Dales would

submit an outline of evidence by June 30. A

second directions will then be held on July 14

with a date for the full hearing expected to be

finalised that day. It is expected eight witnesses

will give evidence, with the hearing likely to be

held in the County Court and last up to three

days. Melham continues to ride and currently

sits fifth on the Melbourne jockeys’ premiership

with 38 winners this season.

ATC to honourCaryl Williamson

Three-time Melbourne Cup-winning jockey

Glen Boss says it will be an honour if he can win

the Vale Caryl Williamson Handicap (1400m)

at Randwick aboard Jazette. The Australian

Turf Club is honouring Australian Associated

Press turf editor Caryl Williamson, who died

last week, by naming a race after her today.

Williamson, originally from New Zealand,

was the first female racing editor for a major

Australian media organisation, spending 24

years at the helm. “I was saying something to

the lads that we knew Caryl at the races but

didn’t know much about her personal life and a

lot of people were like that,” Boss said. “She was

very quiet, humble and always pleasant.” Boss

remembers walking from a recent Randwick

meeting with Williamson, discussing the day’s

racing. “We were having a good little chat and

she was as smart as a whip as always,” Boss

said. “She knew her stuff. We could give her a

comment and knew it would be taken the right

way or knew what we were talking about.”

Jockeys in demandfor StradbrokeTrainers are scrambling to secure jockeys

for the Stradbroke Handicap (Gr 1, 1400m)

because of coronavirus restrictions on travel.

The weights for the Stradbroke were released

on Monday, with only five horses allotted a

weight of more than 54 kilograms, the usual

minimum in Queensland. The minimum for

the Stradbroke, however, is 49.5 kilograms,

meaning the vast majority of the runners will

be competing off weights from 51 kilograms to

53 kilograms. Due to restrictions, it is likely that

only jockeys based in southern Queensland

will be able to ride in the Stradbroke. The

issue is that there are only a limited number of

jockeys and apprentices who can ride under 54

kilograms. A Racing Queensland spokesman

says the current State Border Directions mean

that a person who arrives in Queensland from

another state or territory of Australia will not

be allowed to enter Queensland, unless they

receive a special exemption. If successful, they

would need to undertake a mandatory 14-day

self-isolation period.

Rodd looking forward to being back in the saddleJockey Michael Rodd is eager to get back in the

saddle for his racing return at Flemington. The

2007 Melbourne Cup-winning jockey exited

quarantine on Sunday following two weeks in

isolation after returning from Singapore. Rodd

spent five years in Singapore but with racing

there in shutdown due to the coronavirus

pandemic, he joined fellow jockeys Daniel

Moor and Patrick Moloney in returning to

Melbourne. After two Covid-19 tests Rodd has

been cleared by Racing Victoria to resume

racing at Flemington on Saturday and the

jockey had his first sit on a horse in trackwork

in over six weeks yesterday morning. “It was

awesome to get back out there,” Rodd said. “I

was a little bit wobbly but I settled into it after a

few and I’m sure I’m going to be a little bit sore

tomorrow. But I did a lot of work in the hotel

room and it really has shown and I’m happy

where I am at.”

Kinane settling wellin BrisbaneThe highly promising Kinane (Reliable Man)

takes centre stage this week when making his

Brisbane debut in the Gunsynd Classic (Gr 3,

1800m) at Eagle Farm. Trainer Chris Waller

decided to bypass the South Australian Derby

(Gr 1, 2500m) to instead concentrate on two

runs in Queensland this winter. Waller said on

Twitter that Kinane, who was subject to multi-

million dollar offers from Hong Kong after

his latest win in the Frank Packer Plate (Gr 3,

2000m) at Randwick, had taken to his new

surroundings in Brisbane. Stable representative

Paul Shailer reported the gelding was ‘jumping

out of his skin’ after his work at the Gold Coast

yesterday.

Thornton reflects on successful SA stint

Damien Thornton is embracing the positives to

come out of his current 14-day quarantine period

on his return to Melbourne after a successful

campaign at the Adelaide carnival where he

scored his first Group 1 win. The jockey is able

to wind down and reflect on his first elite level

win aboard Toffee Tongue (Tavistock) in the

Schweppes Oaks (Gr 1, 2000m) and his growing

relationships with some leading stables. “I’ve had

a bit of Uber Eats and had a couple of beers, which

I am allowed to now, but I won’t be silly about it

and getting up to 58 (kilograms) or 59 or anything

like that,” Thornton told Racing.com. “It’ll be like

being normal and having breakfast and dinner

every day. It’s a nice change. I won’t worry about

my weight for a week and then work on it a bit in

the second week. I can sit back now and enjoy

things for a couple of weeks.”

Moroney eyeing up Everest for TofaneMichael Moroney may aim All Aged Stakes (Gr

1, 1400m) winner Tofane (Ocean Park) towards a

tilt at The Everest (1200m), the world’s richest turf

race, in the spring. “We are just waiting for them to

confirm prize-money for The Everest,” Moroney

told Racing.com. “We might attack that, which

does change a lot what you do in the spring. On

the fresh side, she would be competitive in an

Everest and from then on she probably wants

to go up to a mile. We were even contemplating

that if there wasn’t an Everest, then we could give

her a prep in the lead-up to the Cox Plate (Gr 1,

2040m).” Tofane has won five of her 14 starts,

including the Northwood Plume Stakes (Gr 3,

1200m), Begonia Belle Stakes (Gr 3, 1100m) and

the All Aged Stakes. “For her to do what she did

(in the All Aged Stakes) puts her in the top drawer.

She could end up as good a mare as I have trained

I think,” said Moroney.

is driven by his narrow defeats in both the

South Australian Derby (Gr 1, 2500m) and The

Goodwood (Gr 1, 1200m) during the South

Australian carnival, which saw him ride seven

Group or Listed winners across the carnival.

in the ring for every Group 1 opportunity I

believe I can get.” Holder’s most recent Group

1 win came in 1997, taking the South Australian

Derby on Markham (Salieri), and although the

pain of two narrow defeats was hard to stomach,

Holder soon moved on: “I watched the replays

over and over but realised there was no point as

the results won’t change.”

Racing Australia appoint National Equine Welfare and Traceability ExecutiveRacing Australia has appointed Karen Day as

the organisation’s first National Equine Welfare

and Traceability Executive as the organisation

continues to enhance its commitment to

Thoroughbred welfare and traceability. Day’s

previous role was as Equine Welfare Manager for

Racing NSW, a role which she held from 2016 to

early 2019. A statement by Racing Australia said:

“Karen will bring over 25 years of thoroughbred

experience and more than 20 years working

in Media, Publishing and Marketing where

she has developed a multi-disciplined skill

set covering business leadership, marketing,

consumer and customer data management,

sales and operations.” Racing Australia’s

Operations Chief Executive Officer Myles

Foreman added: “The appointment of Karen as

the first National Equine Welfare & Traceability

Executive for Racing Australia

is an important step in the

ongoing commitment to the

welfare and traceability of

the thoroughbred.”

NEW ZEALAND

Melbourne Cup a possibility for Roger ThatTauranga horseman Antony Fuller has Auckland

Cup (Gr 1, 3200m) winner Roger That (Shinko

King) back ticking over but he isn’t getting ahead

of himself as he looks to place his stable star this

spring. The farmer turned horse trainer prepares

the rising eight-year-old from his Bay Of Plenty

property. “We’re just working him quietly and not

doing anything too serious until we know where

we are going. He is ticking over and he seems fine,”

Fuller said. “The draft calendar for next season is

still being worked through, so until we know the

type of races and distances we can’t plan too far

ahead.” In a unique year, where the magnitude of

international competition is difficult to forecast,

Fuller said a tilt at the Melbourne Cup (Gr 1, 3200m)

could be possible for the veteran stayer: “We are

definitely giving it serious consideration, but it is

the travel restrictions for us that are the question

mark at the moment, and we want to assess that

the horse is going well enough here first too.”

White Robe Lodge announce 2020 feesOtago-based White Robe Lodge has

announced their 2020 service fees, with Raise

The Flag (Sadler’s Wells) leading the roster at

NZ$6,000 (plus GST), unchanged from 2019,

despite a standout season which included

a breakthrough Group 1 win for Etah James

in the Sydney Cup (Gr 1, 3200m). Standing

alongside will be Ghibellines (Shamardal) at a

fee of NZ$5,000 (plus GST) and Gallant Guru

(Montjeu), available at NZ$2,000 (plus GST).

“We acknowledge that given the current climate

times certainly aren’t easy for breeders and feel

that our service fees reflect this,” stud manager

Wayne Stewart said. The stud are also offering a

10 per cent discount to breeders booking two or

more mares to one stallion.

ASIA

Oaks fancy out to honour late CertainDes Ailes (Deep Impact), the early second

favourite for the Yushun Himba (Gr 1, 2400m),

the Japanese Oaks, will be seeking to represent

her late dam, dual French Classic winner Avenir

Certain (Le Havre), when she steps out in Sunday’s

feature. Avenir Certain died last April in Japan, but

her death was only reported this week through

the Japanese Studbook. She was unbeaten in her

first six starts for Jean-Claude Rouget, including

the Poule d’Essai des Pouliches (Gr 1, 1600m), the

French 1,000 Guineas, and the Prix de Diane (Gr

1, 2100m), the French Oaks. She was exported to

Japan in 2016, producing two foals, both by Deep

Impact. Des Ailes will be ridden by Australian

jockey Damian Lane.

Almond Eye decision pendingA decision is looming about Almond Eye’s

(Lord Kanaloa) next start after she blitzed her

rivals at her seasonal return in the Victoria

Mile (Gr 1, 1600m) last weekend. Trainer Sakae

Kunieda is eyeing off the Yasuda Kinen (Gr 1,

1600m) over the same course and distance as

the Victoria Mile, except against the males; it

was a race in which she finished third last year.

Last year’s winner Indy Champ (Stay Gold) is

likely to line up once again, along with recent

Sydney visitor Danon Premium (Deep Impact),

who finished second to Addeybb (Pivotal) in

the Queen Elizabeth Stakes (Gr 1, 2000m) at

Randwick at his most recent start. The race may

also feature last year’s Queen Elizabeth Stakes

runner-up Kluger (King Kamehameha).

Ting’s Star shoots for Amazing five at the ValleyHappy Valley specialist Amazing Star (Darci

Brahma) is shooting for his fifth win at the city

circuit this season when he faces off against

talented rivals in the Class 2 Ho Chung River

Handicap (1200m) tonight. The Jimmy Ting

trainee has relished racing around the Valley’s

tight turns and has enjoyed a rapid rise, with

four wins from five starts this season having

taken his rating to a career-high mark of 100. A

win tonight would put the New Zealand-bred

gelding in line for a tilt at Group races next term

but three-time champion jockey Zac Purton

is taking it one step at a time. “I think he’s

starting to reach his ceiling but he’s got a liking

for Happy Valley and if he can break cleanly to

have himself right up there, then hopefully he

can continue on with what he’s been doing,” the

Australian said.

INTERNATIONAL

Vale Forty Niner

Four-time Grade 1 winner and prominent

international sire Forty Niner (Mr Prospector)

died from old age on Monday, the Japan

Bloodhorse Breeders Association (JBBA)

announced on Twitter. Forty Niner had turned

35 a week earlier. Forty Niner won the Futurity

Stakes (Gr 1, 7f) and the Champagne Stakes

(Gr 1, 8f) among five wins at two in 1987,

before adding the Haskell Invitational (Gr 1,

9f) and the Travers Stakes (Gr 1, 10f) at three.

He was also among the favourites for the 1988

Kentucky Derby, finishing second by a neck

to the filly Winning Colors (Caro). At stud,

first at Kentucky’s Claiborne Farm and then at

Shizunai Stallion Station in Japan, he produced

56 stakes winners, including six Grade 1

winners. His sons have succeeded at stud as

well, most notably Distorted Humor. "We are

truly saddened to lose him and are grateful for

all the support from his fans over the years,"

said JBBA stallion affairs manager Shigeki Yusa.

Godolphin Flying Start cohort announcedIreland-based Australian Angus Robertson and

Sydney-based duo, Irishman Donncha McCarthy

and Frenchwoman Marine Moussa, were

among 12 trainees announced last night for the

Godolphin Flying Start program, beginning later

this year. The prestigious two-year Thoroughbred

Industry Management and Leadership

Programme facilitates trainees to learn and

experience management operations and

leadership in the global thoroughbred industry

with phases in Ireland, the UK, the USA, Australia

and Dubai. Joining Robertson, McCarthy and

Moussa are George Broughton and Thomas

Lyon-Smith from the UK, Samantha Bussanich,

Devon Dougherty and Erin McLaughlin from

the US, Solène Hudbert, also from France, and

three other Irish trainees - Brigitte Murphy, Tom

Murphy and David Skelly.

O’Brien still determining Classic teamAidan O’Brien has admitted to plans at

Ballydoyle being up in the air with regards to

the Classics, but revealed Wichita (No Nay

Never) and Arizona (No Nay Never) remain

the most likely colts to take on last season’s

outstanding juvenile Pinatubo (Shamardal) in

the 2,000 Guineas (Gr 1, 1m) at Newmarket on

June 6. The most successful trainer in the race's

history, O'Brien has won the 2,000 Guineas ten

times, including four of the past five runnings,

but the close proximity of Royal Ascot to the

first Classic of the season will have a huge

bearing on what the master trainer runs in the

race this year. “The two main horses who were

going to Newmarket originally were Wichita

and Arizona, that was the original plan,”

O’Brien said. "We thought it would be possible

to do all three races with them – the Guineas at

Newmarket, the Irish Guineas and then the St

James's Palace, but that's obviously not the case

now. I'd imagine the horses will go either of two

ways between the Irish and English Guineas

with the view that some of the Newmarket

horses would have a chance of running at Royal

Ascot. That's it in a nutshell really.”

The finalists for the 2020 Australian

Stud and Stable Staff Awards,

celebrating the unsung heroes

who dedicate their lives to

Australia’s racing and breeding industries, were

announced last night.

Two finalists were named for each of the

seven categories - Leadership, Horsemanship,

the Australian Turf Club Dedication to Racing,

the Magic Millions Dedication to Breeding,

the Melbourne Racing Club Foundation

Administration and Ancillary, Newcomer and

Thoroughbred Care and Welfare.

The named finalists occupy positions that

encompass everything from mucking out

stables, to administration, to education, riding,

delivering foals, rehoming and retraining ex-

racehorses and every other facet of two of the

biggest and most diverse industries in the

country.

The Australian Stud and Stable Staff

Awards, which will be announced during a

virtual awards ceremony on June 17, could

arguably not be better-timed. It is a time in

which the entire workforce in both the breeding

and racing industries deserves recognition for

being able to operate despite the devastating

Covid-19 pandemic.

Among the nominees are people like

Mandy Radecker, whose success as a jockey has

been followed by a career curing problemed

racehorses of their bad habits and passing on

her knowledge.

Radecker’s nomination in the

Horsemanship category is backed by the simple

endorsement from her boss, Queensland

trainer Michael Lakey: “Mandy has dedicated

her life to the thoroughbred horse.”

Two of this year’s finalists, Kelly Colledge

in the Newcomer category, and Sarah Moran

in the Administration and Ancillary category,

both demonstrated great resourcefulness in

difficult circumstances.

The relatively inexperienced Colledge took

over the running of Grafton trainer Brenden

Mackay’s stable when he was diagnosed with a

brain tumour.

As Mackay said: “Kelly saved my stable and

is keeping my dream alive. She has a ‘next-level’

work ethic.”

Similarly, Moran, who worked in the office

of Melbourne trainer Robbie Griffiths, stepped

up when her boss was battling a brain aneurysm

during 2019.

“I don’t know how we would have coped if

Sarah hadn’t taken on a variety of extra roles.

She was instrumental in keeping our business

afloat,” Griffiths said.

Others, like Godolphin’s Simon Johnson,

the Assistant Stud Manager at Woodlands

Stud and a finalist in the Leadership Award,

is commended as “exactly the person these

awards were created for”.

Johnson, a highly accomplished horseman

and dedicated educator, sees his role as a broad

one.

“We have a duty to give everyone who

comes into the industry and who shows a

willingness to learn the opportunity to advance

themselves,” Johnson said.

“These Awards recognise not so much the

people like me, but all of those who give so

much to ensure their farms and the industry

are successful.”

In the Dedication to Racing category,

Brett “Lofty” Killion has worked for some of

Australia’s finest trainers over the past 25 years

and is now the Brisbane foreman for Chris

Waller.

Renowned as one of the few in the game

who would arrive at Randwick before his first

boss, Gai Waterhouse, Killion is described by

his nominator as “honest, hard-working and

ever-loyal”.

“Lofty has learned from people like Gai

and her father’s legendary foreman ‘Spider’

Barker. He’s been influenced by a man with

the outstanding horsemanship skills and eye of

John Thompson and by the methodical search

for perfection of Chris Waller,” his nominator,

Reg Fleming said. “He’s taken something from

all of them.”

The Stud and Stable Staff Awards are

supported by Godolphin worldwide and in

Australia are staged by Thoroughbred Breeders

Australia and Racing Australia with sponsorship

from the Melbourne Racing Club Foundation,

the Australian Turf Club and Magic Millions.

TBA Chief Executive Tom Reilly said

the 2020 Awards are made against a testing

background that has demonstrated more

clearly than ever the value of those who keep

the thoroughbred racing and breeding industry

at their world-leading level.

“Australia was one of the few racing

jurisdictions in the world where racing

continued throughout the Covid-19

pandemic, and one of the reasons for that

was the dedication and discipline of the entire

Australian Stud and StableStaff Awards finalists announced

workforce,” Reilly said. “The Stud and Stable

Staff Awards again highlights the quality of

those who work behind the front line in the

most vital roles.”

MRC Foundation chief operating officer

Warren Horton said his organisation was

proud to again sponsor the Administration and

Ancillary Award.

“The work these individuals perform

behind the scenes is truly remarkable and they

are the true unsung heroes of our industry.

Good luck to all the nominees,” Horton said.

The winner in each category, other than

the Newcomer, receives $10,000 and a trophy

with a further $3,000 to share among workplace

colleagues. The winner in the Newcomer

category receives $5,000.

A further $5,000 and a trophy is awarded

for Thoroughbred Excellence to the category

winner (except Newcomer and Care and

Welfare) judged to have made an exceptional

and significant contribution throughout the

year.

BY ANDREW HAWKINS | @ANZ_NEWS

One of Australia’s most prolific

broodmares, Scandinavia

(Snippets), has died at the age of

25, it was announced yesterday.

Scandinavia’s owner, breeder Rob Crabtree,

announced her death through Aushorse, with

the matriarch leaving behind a family that has

come to sit at the forefront of the Australian

racing and breeding industries.

“You never forget your first. I had a couple of

good horses before Scandinavia and a few since,

but in my opinion she’s changed the landscape

of Australian breeding: a ‘blue hen’ by any

definition,” Crabtree told Aushorse. “She’s a

Group winner in her own right, she produced

Group winners, her daughters have produced

Group winners and her granddaughters are

now producing Group winners.”

Crabtree purchased Scandinavia’s dam,

Song Of Norway (Vain), from David Hains in

1994 for $40,000, in foal to Snippets. Song Of

Norway was unraced and hardly had a pedigree

page littered with black type: her third foal

Russian Tea Room (Raise A Cup) had won the

Rancher Stakes (Listed, 1000m) at Caulfield

in 1992 and her half-sister Song Of Kingston

(Bletchingly) had produced dual

Group 1 placegetter Muirfield Village

(Exit Five B), but it was still hardly an

inspiring pedigree on paper.

However, Crabtree saw something

in Song Of Norway and decided to

invest, with her Snippets filly arriving

in November, 1994.

“She (Song of Norway) had just the three

foals for me, but I put her in foal to Western

Symphony after Scandinavia was born and she

produced the Sydney stakes winner, Midnight

Sun,” Crabtree said.

“I decided to race Scandinavia in

partnership with John Sadler and he trained

her to win a Blue Diamond Prelude at two and

the Group 2 QTC Cup, but she was also Group

1-placed four times in the Salinger, Goodwood,

Lightning and Newmarket.

“Scandinavia was an even better racehorse

than her record suggests – she was beaten a

whisker in the Salinger behind 12-time stakes

winner, Flavour, and was less than a head away

when third to an absolute flying machine,

General Nediym, in the Newmarket.”

While she was a terrific racehorse, she was

an even better broodmare. She produced 13

foals, with 10 making it to the racetrack. Eight

of them were winners; the two that didn’t win

have created black type families of their own.

Her first foal Danavia (Danehill) was city-

placed from four starts. She produced five

foals; among them was stakes winner Iconic

(Bel Esprit), as well as classy filly Sistonic (Bel

Esprit), who produced the four-time winner

Seatonic (Sebring). Another of her daughters,

Hypatia (Distant Music), has produced two

five-time winners in Bold Kingston (Your Song)

and Believing (Bel Esprit).

It was Scandinavia’s second foal, though,

that would really cement her legacy. Helsinge

(Desert Sun) was unraced and was sold at the

2005 Inglis Broodmare Sale for $115,000.

Helsinge produced eight foals, but none

could match her first: the almighty Black

Caviar (Bel Esprit), who won all 25 of her starts

- including 15 Group 1 wins - before retiring

to the breeding barn herself, where she has

produced two winners in Oscietra (Exceed And

Excel) and Prince Of Caviar (Sebring).

Helsinge’s second foal, the colt Moshe (Bel

Esprit), was a winner of three of his five starts,

also producing a stakes winner in Moshki. He

now stands at stud in Indonesia.

The third foal for Helsinge was another

colt right out of the box. All Too Hard (Casino

Prince) was a four-time Group 1 winner,

including in the Caulfield Guineas (Gr 1,

1600m), before retiring to Vinery Stud. He has

produced 16 stakes winners, most notably

Australian Guineas (Gr 1, 1600m) conqueror

Alligator Blood.

Among Helsinge’s other foals is Naturale

(Bel Esprit), who produced this season’s

Champagne Stakes (Gr 1, 1600m) placegetter

Ole Kirk (Written Tycoon).

Having produced Danavia and Helsinge,

Scandinavia was finally able to produce

a Group 1 winner to avenge her narrow

defeats on the racetrack with her next foal

being Group 1 winner Magnus (Flying Spur).

Magnus raced in the Crabtree red and white

checks and performed admirably on the

world stage, hitting the placings in Group

1 races in Singapore and the UK as well as

on home soil. His crowning moment came

in The Galaxy (Gr 1, 1100m) at Randwick in

2007.

“I’d come so close to winning a Group

1 on too many occasions and Magnus had

finished second to Miss Andretti – in track

record time – in the Lightning Stakes, then

he ran third in the Oakleigh Plate,” Crabtree

said. “Winning a Group 1 was proving to

be fairly elusive, but then Magnus came

out and won the Galaxy in Sydney for Peter

Moody and Damien Oliver.

“I stood Magnus at Eliza Park (now Sun

Stud), which ironically, is the farm I owned

in the 90s, and from there he’s gone on

to produce four Group 1 winners,

including this year’s Futurity winner,

Streets of Avalon, and 40 other stakes

horses who between them have won

$46 million.”

Also among Scandinavia’s

progeny is Baltics (Fusaichi Pegasus),

the granddam of this season’s Blue

Diamond Stakes (Gr 1, 1200m) runner-

up Hanseatic (Street Boss); nine-time

winner Ibsen (Bel Esprit); Group 2

winners Wilander (Exceed And Excel) and

Scandiva (Fastnet Rock); Listed winner Arctic

Flight (Flying Spur); and Group 2 runner-up

Lionhearted (Fastnet Rock).

Scandinavia only has one of her foals still

racing - a three-year-old named Metro Warrior

(Fastnet Rock), currently in training with John

Moore in Hong Kong. As Viking Warrior, he was

a two-time winner in Victoria. He was her last

foal before she was retired from stud duties in

2018.

“What a phenomenal career and truly a

legend in her own lifetime,” Crabtree adds. “For

my wife, Sylvie, and I, Scandinavia is like one of

the family, just as she’s been for her carer, Fiona

Melling, who has looked after her from the start.

“Fittingly, Scandinavia is buried in the

way of champions: standing up and facing the

morning sun.”

Whether Metro Warrior lives up to his

pedigree or not, Scandinavia has already made

her mark - and will continue to do so in the

years to come.

Eligible employers will be able to receive

and pay the JobKeeper payments to various

employee categories, including, but not limited

to:

• Employees who were employed by you as employees as at March 1, 2020;

• Employees currently employed by you (including those stood down or re-hired);

• Employees who are full-time, part-time, or long-term casuals (to get the payment for

a casual employee, they must have been employed by you on a regular basis for longer

than 12 months as at March 1, 2020); and• Employees who are not in receipt of a

JobKeeper Payment from another employer.

• Special eligibility for horse business structures with no employeesPresuming the above eligibility conditions for employers and

employees are satisfied, note below how a “nominated” employee for the

following common business structures are eligible to receive JobKeeper.

• Sole traders

The proprietor will be eligible if they do not receive JobKeeper from

another source.Another reminder: for verification purposes, businesses without

employees, such as a sole trader:• will need to provide an ABN for their business;

• nominate an individual to receive the payment;

• provide that individual’s Tax File Number; and

• provide a declaration as to the recent business activity of that business.

Sole traders are easily the most common horse structures and, as

such, it is worth sharing that if you are also employed on a wage and

would like to receive JobKeeper as a sole trader, rather than through your

employer, you can nominate yourself as the “eligible business participant”

Carrazzo Consulting Pty Ltd | Chartered Accountants - www.carrazzo.com.au

under the business participation rules and give appropriate notice to the

ATO. In this scenario, your employer cannot nominate you for JobKeeper

payments.

• PartnershipsA single partner in a partnership can be nominated. This single

partner must not be receiving JobKeeper from another source.• Trusts

A single individual beneficiary of a trust can be nominated to receive

JobKeeper payments. This individual beneficiary must not be receiving

JobKeeper from another source.The beneficiaries of a trust are outlined and defined within its trust deed.

• CompaniesA single director or shareholder of a company can be nominated.

These businesses will also receive JobKeeper payments for their other

eligible employees. This single director must not be receiving JobKeeper from another

source.

These initiatives are a step forward, but

it is noted by accounting bodies, such as CPA

Australia, that they have limitations in ensuring

equitable access to JobKeeper within trust,

partnership, and company structures. They will

recommend to government that the ‘business

participant’ test be extended to all actively

engaged persons in trusts, partnerships and

companies. For more details on JobKeeper, please refer

Of all the recent government Covid-19 initiatives recently announced, it is generally thought that the JobKeeper payment for employers is only available to profitable horse businesses that have established employees.If you thought this was the case, read on, upon review of the recently announced JobKeeper legislation, I have some pleasant surprises for you.Below, I will work through the four common business structures and explain how it is possible for business owners that operate as sole traders or through trusts, partnerships and companies, to be eligible for JobKeeper even if their businesses are currently in losses and/or they aren’t being paid wages.

JobKeeper – positive updatecould benefit your horse business

JobKeeper payment – quick overviewA JobKeeper payment is a minimum payment ($1,500 per fortnight) the Government will pay to eligible businesses (defined below) to ensure they are able to keep their eligible employees (defined below) employed by them during this Covid-19 period.The first payment will be received by employers from the ATO in the

first week of May, 2020 and will be backdated to be payable from the scheme commencement of March 30, 2020. Payments under JobKeeper can be received up to September 27, 2020.• Eligible employers

All businesses who meet the turnover tests below can now register their interest with the ATO to receive the JobKeeper payment for their employees. Update to “Turnover tests” for employers All businesses (including sole traders) can now register their interest to

receive the JobKeeper payments for their employees (or themselves if sole traders) if they meet the various turnover tests. The most applicable test to the horse industry is that their turnover has been reduced by more than 30 per cent relative to a comparable period a year ago (of at least a month).

Since our original release on JobKeeper a few weeks ago, the ATO has given more details as to how to apply the “turnover test”. This is a crucial consideration for employers and is noted below.

How to calculate a fall in turnover for the first fortnight starting 30 March 2020To work out your fall in turnover, you can compare either:• GST turnover for March, 2020 with GST turnover for March, 2019• projected GST turnover for April, 2020 with GST turnover for April, 2019• projected GST turnover for the quarter starting April 2020 with GST

turnover for the quarter starting April, 2019How you choose to project your fall in turnover is not dependent on whether you report a quarterly or monthly BAS, though you can do that if it is easier.

If you work out that you qualify for the JobKeeper payments for the first fortnight because your turnover has declined by the relevant amount, you remain eligible and do not need to keep testing turnover in following months. However, you will have ongoing monthly reporting requirements. More information will be provided soon.The ATO also has the discretion to set out alternative tests that can

establish your eligibility when turnover periods are not appropriately comparable (for example, if your business has been in operation less than a year). We will provide more information soon about alternative tests.

Zousain retired, to stand at Widden in 2020Zousain (Zoustar), the first ever foal from

Widden Stud’s leading young stallion Zoustar

(Northern Meteor), will join his sire on the

farm’s roster after the four-year-old’s retirement

was announced yesterday.

A Group 2-winning juvenile, taking the

Champagne Classic (Gr 2, 1200m) at

Doomben before finishing second to The

Autumn Sun (Redoute’s Choice) in the J J

Atkins (Gr 1, 1600m), Zousain’s two-year-old

record is reminiscent of his sire, with Zoustar

winning the BRC Sires’ Produce Stakes (Gr 2,

1400m) before also finishing runner-up in the

J J Atkins. Stud News page 12 >>

Godolphin Australia managing

director Vin Cox believes this

year’s Darley stallion roster

and fee structure presents a

balanced approach in a volatile economic

climate that will provide commercial breeders

with a variety of options and at prices that

enable them to continue to trade.

Darley’s kingpin and champion sire

Exceed And Excel (Danehill), who has

enjoyed a remarkable 12 months with his

progeny in the sales ring and on the track,

will once again spearhead the 19-strong, two-

state roster at an increased fee of $132,000 (all

inclusive of GST).

The reverse-shuttling Exceed And Excel

is the only Darley stallion to see his fee go up

this year on the back of Coolmore Stud Stakes

(registered as Ascot Vale Stakes) (Gr 1, 1200m)

winning colt Exceedance and Godolphin’s

own Bivouac proving successful at the highest

level this season. Continued on page 2>>

“The interest has been very good,

and probably better than we thought, and by design we held back on

announcing fees just because we needed to see where the market sat, see

what the appetite was and just get a feel for what the market is saying,” Cox

told ANZ Bloodstock News yesterday.

“We think we have got a relative idea on where it all sits, but those

three in particular have demanded a lot of interest at this early stage.”

While conscious of the prevailing market outlook caused by the global

pandemic, Cox said the deeds of Exceed And Excel demanded that the

rising 20-year-old’s service fee was put up from $88,000 in 2019 given his

recent achievements.

Buyers have also recognised Exceed And Excel’s consistent

performance as an elite sire, with a colt making $1.7 million at the Easter

sale last year and another son at this year’s Magic Millions Gold Coast

Yearling Sale fetching $1.8 million, the second highest-priced yearling

sold at auction in Australasia this year.

“He has got three Group 1-winning colts at the moment and two

recently retired, Microphone and Exceedance and for Bivouac, it is our

intention to race him on next season,” he said.

“Having said that, those horses are winning the proper races - the

right races - and it shows with what the horse is doing in the sale ring as

well. Exceed is a horse who can change your postcode, whether you are

racing one or if you have got one in the sale ring.

“When a horse has that sort of effect generally you expect that to be

reflected in his price and that is where we’ve moved him to.”

Darley has maintained the 2019 service fees of Victorian-based

stallions Street Boss (Street Cry) ($27,500) and Brazen Beau (I Am

Invincible) ($49,500), the leading second season sire by stakes winners

with five, in front of money-earning leader Rubick (Encosta De Lago)

(two) and Deep Field (Northern Meteor) (three).

The remainder of Darley’s stallion roster, including champion Lonhro

(Octagonal) ($66,000), Astern (Medagalia d’Oro) ($22,000), Epaulette

(Commands) ($22,000) and Harry Angel (Dark Angel) ($16,500), have all

had their service fees reduced.

“I think he’s

going to come as a little bit of a shock and a

surprise to the market that he is standing under

the Newgate banner, but he’s a horse we just felt

deserved his chance,” Slade told ANZ Bloodstock

News yesterday.

“Obviously, he raced in the Godolphin

colours and I think everyone’s first memory of the

horse is that he is that X-factor horse that was the

early favourite for the Golden Slipper. Everyone

was so excited after his debut to see where he’d

go and where he’d get to, but unfortunately, due

to injury, he was never able to fulfill the potential

that he had shown on debut.”

That debut was an electric five and a quarter

length victory in the Golden Gift (1100m) at

Rosehill in November, 2018. It was a win that saw

Tassort assume early favouritism for that season’s Golden Slipper Stakes

(Gr 1, 1200m), with form analysts rating his performance through the

roof: The Rating Bureau’s Daniel O’Sullivan declared it a “Group 1 class”

performance that was “stamped

by a sharp turn of foot, terrific late

strength and fast overall time”,

placing him in rarefied company.

Unfortunately, the colt only

raced once more, when he was

sent out as an odds-on favourite

in the Silver Slipper Stakes (Gr 2,

1100m) at Rosehill. Slow from the

stalls, he settled near the rear in an

evenly-run race, making ground

late into second but unable to reel

in Time To Reign (Time For War).

“We had key indicators

through this horse’s career that

told us he was elite and just

never had the chance to show it,”

Slade said. “We are big on time ratings and data. Daniel O’Sullivan from

The Ratings Bureau gave this guy a 103 on debut when he won. He was

impressive to the eye that day but when the time data came back, it said,

listen, this is as impressive a two-year-old debut that we’ve seen since the

likes of Estijaab and Extreme Choice. To be honest, at the time, we thought

we had a colt to be really concerned about on the racetrack, wearing our

Newgate cap!

“Obviously we never got to see that ability but on the back of that

performance, that debut, James McDonald came out and said he was the

real deal and James Cummings was very much of the same opinion, he

had a very high opinion of the horse. Everyone that had something to do

with him plus the time data suggested he had the ability to be that real

elite performer.

Slade continued: “At the end of the day, for all of us, our key criteria

for any young stallion standing at Newgate is that elite race performance.

Horses don’t have to win their Group 1s, but if they showed elite

performance, they generally are your best chance of becoming an

important stallion.

“I just feel you only have to look at the general sires list to see that. They are

either proper, proper Group 1 horses, or they were horses who had that ability but

didn’t get to showcase their true potential.
