A midweek Moonee Valley deluge

will not dampen enthusiasm for

tonight’s Australia Stakes (Gr

2, 1200m), which is the most

interesting edition of the race since Black

Caviar (Bel Esprit) won it in 2012.

The return of Hey Doc (Duporth),

Begood Toya Mother (Myboycharlie) and

Microphone (Exceed And Excel) in particular

highlight the depth of this autumn make-

or-break preliminary, which is likely to be

run on a Good 4 surface despite more than

20 millimetres of rain hitting the track on

Wednesday night. Continued on page 2>>

Hey Doc’s proposed Dubai campaign;

Begood Toya Mother’s mooted weight-for-age itinerary and Microphone’s

immediate programme will hinge on their performances in the first Group

2 sprint of the new year.

The Tony and Calvin McEvoy-trained Hey Doc has not appeared since

winning the Winterbottom Stakes (Gr 1, 1200m) on November 30, which

was just his second run in 14 months after surgery to remove bone chips.

However, Tony McEvoy believes the gelding is as close to ready as he can

be following the let-up.

"Two months between runs with a big, heavy horse like him, it's very

hard to keep him right up to the mark so he hasn't been screwed down

tight for this but he's pretty close. He’ll be there to win,” McEvoy said.

A strong performance in the Australia Stakes will see Hey Doc progress

to the CF Orr Stakes (Gr 1, 1400m) at Caulfield on February 8 before the

trek to Dubai for the $US2 million Al Quoz Sprint (Gr 1, 1200m) - won

by Ortensia (Testa Rossa) in 2012 and Buffering (Mossman) in 2016 - at

Meydan on Dubai World Cup night (March 28).

"Dubai is definitely on the

cards. It’s been on the table for

some time and while it’s a little

way off we’re excited about going

there,” McEvoy said.

Hey Doc and stablemate

Manuel (Commands), who also

resumes tonight, galloped on

Monday at Moonee Valley, as

did Godolphin’s Microphone

and the Danny O’Brien-trained

Embrace Me (Shamexpress),

who is the lone mare in the race.

“He was great on Monday morning,” McEvoy said of Hey Doc,

who’s won three of his four starts at Moonee Valley. “He was stimulated

by being there again, he really likes the Valley and I was pleased with

his work.”

Hey Doc worked over 1000 metres in

1.05.05, running the last 400 metres in 23.94,

which was marginally slower than Manuel’s

closing sectional of 23.87 in a 1.06.32 workout

over the same distance.

“Manuel’s a bit above himself but he

galloped well Monday morning. This is the path

we took him on when he won the Orr last year

so he’ll go on to the Orr and then the Futurity,”

McEvoy added.

Manuel was trapped three wide on the

speed when seventh in last year’s Australia

Stakes before leading throughout in the Orr

Stakes.

The Orr Sakes is also the likely next step

for the emerging star Begood Toya Mother

who scored a breakthrough elite-level win,

with 52 kilograms under handicap conditions,

in last spring’s Sir Rupert Clarke Stakes (Gr 1,

1400m).

“You’d hope he can make that jump to

weight-for-age,” said trainer Daniel Bowman. “He looks bigger and better

this time in. He’s improved physically and in his work and he’s only had 13

starts so there is room for improvement you’d think.”

The Warrnambool-based Bowman said he would have been happy to

see more rain.

“If the track is soft I think he can win but on a Good 3 or a Good 4

horses like Hey Doc might be a bit sharp for him at 1200 metres,” he said.

James Winks picks up the ride on Begood Toya Mother as regular

rider Declan Bates only returned from a ten-week, injury enforced lay-off

earlier this week.

“We just weren’t sure on the timeline with Declan’s recovery and had

to lock a rider in. James is a really good jockey who’s won seven Group 1s

and he was more than happy to come and trial and gallop him,” Bowman

said.

The James Cummings-trained Microphone resumes after bypassing the

Kensington Stakes (Listed, 1000m) last Saturday when disadvantaged by the

weight conditions of that race. The

ATC Sires' Produce Stakes (Gr 1,

1400m) winner galloped over 1000

metres on Monday in 1.06.62 (last

400m in 24.59).

Microphone excelled during

his juvenile season, winning four

of his six starts including the

Sires’ Produce, in which he beat

subsequent Manikato Stakes (Gr

1, 1200m) winner Loving Gaby

(I Am Invincible). That followed

his second in the Golden Slipper

Stakes (Gr 1, 1200m) to stablemate Kiamichi (Sidestep).

Track specialist Embrace Me contests the race after one lead-in run

and O’Brien says her liking for the course can see her be competitive.

“It (Moonee Valley) sets up well for her when the rail is true - she can

be out the back early and then really be strong

late. That’s the way it should race on Friday

night. She seems to really appreciate it (the

surface),” O’Brien said.

The Anthony Freedman-trained

Ringerdingding (Sebring) resumes and has

finished powerfully to be placed on his only two

previous starts at the course and distance.

“He’s run well before over 1200 metres at

the Valley and this will give us a guide on where

we head with him,” Freedman's racing manager

Brad Taylor said.

The Lindsey Smith-trained Scales Of Justice

(Not A Single Doubt), last spring’s Memsie

Stakes (Gr 1, 1400m) winner, is the other key

runner who resumes in tonight’s race.

All gate takings from the night will be

donated to the Victorian Bushfire Appeal and

free entry is offered to all emergency services

personnel.

High-priced colts set for debutCo-trainer Peter Snowden is looking forward to

seeing two colts who fetched a combined total of

almost $4 million at the sales make their debuts

in the opening race at Randwick tomorrow.

Snowden and his son Paul will saddle up Mount

Fuji (Snitzel), a $2.8 million Inglis Australian

Easter Yearling Sale buy, and $900,000 Magic

Millions Gold Coast Yearling Sale purchase

Rulership (I Am Invincible). Rulership extended

nicely to win his latest barrier trial, accounting

for recent Canterbury winner Prague (Redoute’s

Choice), while Mount Fuji showed plenty of

ability when he closed strongly for second on his

only trial. "Mount Fuji has always worked really

well but had an inclination to go very hard in his

work," Snowden said. "We've worked a lot on that,

getting him to settle, so my heart was in my mouth

a bit seeing how he reacted at the trials and going

away from home. He was beautiful before the

trial, he jumped nice and quiet and relaxed very

well.” On track work, Snowden cannot separate

the pair but he suspects Rulership might have

a slight edge on Saturday given his extra trial

experience. "He's probably bit more race savvy

than Mount Fuji but in their work there's nothing

between them,” Snowden added.

O'Dea hoping for change of luck in Cup

Scallopini (Snitzel) looks to have been ideally

placed by Steve O'Dea as the five-year-old attempts

to make amends for a luckless run last time out

when he lines up in tomorrow’s Sunshine Coast

Cup (Listed, 1400m). The gelding finished eighth

in the Magic Millions Snippets (1200m) after being

badly hampered when Champagne Cuddles (Not

A Single Doubt) broke down. He drops in weight to

54.5 kilograms and will start from barrier five with

conditions appearing favourable. "He has won three

times at 1400 metres and missed a place only once

at the distance. He is also unbeaten in three starts on

soft tracks," O'Dea said.

Cummings optimistic about outsider FayerraAnthony Cummings believes Fayerra (Valentia)

can outrun her odds when she takes on a smart

field of youngsters in tomorrow's $2 million

Inglis Millennium In 14 Days Handicap (1000m).

The filly is also entered for a 1200-metre race at

Newcastle but Cummings is favouring Randwick

as a better stepping stone into the Inglis

Millennium (RL, 1200m) at Warwick Farm early

next month. "There is no doubt she will be better

at 1200 but when I do that, I'd prefer to be in a $2

million race in a couple of weeks," Cummings

said. Fayerra got going late to finish fourth in a

1000-metre Gosford maiden on debut and has

shown ability at home. She is the outsider of the

field at $71 but Cummings is unperturbed by the

price. "Her work since has been sharp and she's

well within herself so I think we go there with

some expectation," he added.

Boom Spender makes winning debutDesleigh Forster's decision to run Boom

Spender (Spirit Of Boom) at Doomben

yesterday as opposed to letting the gelding

take his chance in tomorrow's Sunshine Coast

Classic (1200m) reaped dividends when he

made as successful debut. "It has been very

hot and while I think he would have been up

to Saturday's race this was better for his first

start," Forster said. "It is five minutes from

home to Doomben and it can be two hours to

Caloundra." Boom Spender bounced to the

lead and beat Tramonto (Wandjina) by a head

in the QTIS Two-Year-Old Handicap (1200m).

"He won a jump-out leading and he led again

today,” Forster continued. “But I think he will

be better when he can settle in his races." Boom

Spender is likely to chase the $500,000 QTIS

Jewel (1200m) at the Gold Coast in March.

Happy Clapper pleases in barrier trial

Three-time Group 1 winner Happy Clapper

(Teofilo) is on course for a return in next month’s

Apollo Stakes (Gr 2, 1400m) after finishing fourth

in a barrier trial at Randwick yesterday. Happy

Clapper worked to the line in the 900 metre-

heat on the course proper, pleasing trainer Pat

Webster with his effort and his recovery. "Happy

Clapper will have another trial over 1200 metres

on February 6 and then go to the Apollo nine days

later," Webster said. "He will have a much harder

trial and that should have him right for the Apollo.

He only had about three weeks spelling but it is

still good to see he is enjoying it. It's exciting to

think he is coming back."

Winx’s Snitzel sister unlikely to raceSuperstar mare Winx’s (Street Cry) three-year-

old half-sister Courchevel (Snitzel) is unlikely

to make it to the racetrack, breeder John

Camilleri has announced. Racing.com reports

that Courchevel has left the Melbourne stables

of Ciaron Maher and David Eustace and is now

in Sydney where she will be re-assessed. If she

fails to make it onto the racetrack, Courchevel

will become the fourth foal out of Vegas

Showgirl (Al Akbar) unable to race, following

Miss Atom Bomb (Encostsa De Lago), Win

Win Leader (Fastnet Rock) and Boulder City

(Snitzel). Boulder City has, however, forged

a career as a stallion, He stands at Riverbank

Farm near Benalla, where he served 90 mares

at a fee of $5,500 during his first season and a

further 60 mares at the same fee last season.

Williams and Oliver to head metro teamCraig Williams and Damien Oliver will head a

team of metropolitan jockeys competing against

a country side at a twilight meeting at Flemington.

The meeting on February 9 will feature two teams

of seven with all races on the straight course. The

Victoria Racing Club has dubbed the Sunday

meeting “Rapid Racing” with the seven events

run at 30 minute intervals. Along with Williams

and Oliver, the metropolitan team comprises

Dwayne Dunn, Ben Melham, Linda Meech, Mark

Zahra and Luke Currie. Harry Coffey, Jye McNeil,

Daniel Stackhouse, Damien Thornton, Jarrod

Fry, Dean Holland, and Jason Maskiell form the

country team. The first four placegetters in each

race will receive points with double points on

offer in the final race. All gate takings on the day

will be donated to the Bushfire Disaster Appeal.

Nine Sydney races rank in world's top 100The Queen Elizabeth Stakes (Gr 1, 2000m)

remains the highest-rated race in Australia and

equal sixth best in the world following the latest

rankings at the World's Best Race and Racehorse

awards. The Queen Elizabeth was among nine

Sydney races ranked in the world's top 100

at the international awards ceremony. Also

making the cut was the Chipping Norton Stakes

(Gr 1, 1600m) , T J Smith Stakes (Gr 1, 1200m),

Doncaster Mile (Gr 1, 1600m), Golden Rose (Gr

was strong. "These international race ratings

continue to demonstrate the great strength and

depth of Sydney's world-class racing across a

range of distances," Ross said.

Ballarat meeting switched to Warrnambool Ballarat's meeting scheduled to take place on

February 4 has been transferred to Warrnambool

as the club's turf continues to recover from its

track renovation. The track underwent renovation

after the Ballarat Cup meeting in November, with

drainage works including sand slitting and sand

bagging completed. However, some sections have

yet to meet expectations, leading Racing Victoria

and Ballarat Turf Club to announce the switch.

The Benchmark 58 handicap will now be run

over 1600 metres (from 1700m). All other race

distances will remain unchanged.

NEW ZEALAND

Bosson hungry for further Karaka successOpie Bosson will seek a fourth consecutive

success in the Karaka Million 2YO (RL, 1200m)

when he partners last-start Tauranga winner

Cool Aza Beel (Savabeel) at Ellerslie tomorrow.

The leading rider also holds a strong hand in

the Karaka Million 3YO Classic (RL, 1600m)

courtesy of Probabeel (Savabeel), who landed

the $1 million juvenile contest last year, following

in the footsteps of fellow Te Akau Racing-owned

stars Avantage (Fastnet Rock) and Melody Belle

(Commands). "He's come through his Tauranga

win really well. He looks outstanding,” Bosson

said of Cool Aza Beel. "He was quite impressive

there - he gave me a really good feel. I liked the

way he relaxed and the last 600 metres of his

race were top-notch.” Regarding Probabeel, who

won an Awapuni handicap on January 4, Bosson

added: "It was a very good run and there was

heaps of improvement in her. I galloped her on

Monday at Ellerslie and her work was pretty good.

She's not a great track-worker because she's so

laid back, but she's going well. She looks good

and feels good and she'll be a good chance again."

Levante on trial for bigger thingsThe Ken and Bev Kelso-trained Levante (Proisir)

will put her unbeaten record on the line and test

the water for a tilt at stakes company when she

lines up over 1400 metres at Te Aroha today. The

three-year-old has been highly impressive in her

two victories so far, producing scintillating finishes

from the back of the field to win at Matamata on

December 6 and again on December 28. “She’s

been pretty impressive in both starts so far and

has shown a lot of ability,” Ken Kelso said. “We’re

very happy with her heading into this race. Her

work has been very good, she’s eating well and

continuing to thrive. We thought about running

her in the Mr Tiz Trophy at Ellerslie on Saturday,

but decided to take a softer option this week. It

should be a nice race for her.” Looking ahead,

Kelso added: “If she runs well again we’ll look at

stepping up to black-type level for her next start.

That will probably be in the Mufhasa Stakes at

Ellerslie on February 29. We’re taking things one

race at a time with her, but that’s the plan we’ve

got in the back of our minds at this stage.”

Lys Gracieux rises to fifth in the worldCox Plate (Gr 1, 2040m) winner Lys Gracieux

(Heart’s Cry), who retired following her fourth

top-tier victory in the Arima Kinen (Gr 1,

2500m) on December 22, was on Wednesday

rated equal fifth at the annual publication of

the Longines World’s Best Racehorse Rankings.

The six-year-old, who quickened a length and

a half clear of Castelvecchio (Dundeel) and Te

Akau Shark (Rip Van Winkle) when winning

at The Valley in October, was rated 126, two

pounds below the figure awarded to the joint

top-rated trio of Crystal Ocean (Sea The Stars),

Enable (Nathaniel) and Waldgeist (Galileo).

Lys Gracieux shot up the rankings table from

her position of equal 22nd last year, while

compatriot Glory Vase (Deep Impact) - who

landed last month’s Hong Kong Vase (Gr 1,

2400m) - was rated 125, putting him equal ninth

with Benbatl (Dubawi) and the all-conquering

Winx (Street Cry).

Spring’s major racing has highlighted

again that jockeys are arguably

the world’s greatest sportsmen

and women and, almost without

question, the most unique.

Regardless of age or gender; regardless of

background, reputation or accomplishments

they compete on equal terms. This even applies

to children (teenagers) if they happen to have

outridden their claim.

The world’s best travel from country to

country - probably with a business class airfare

- but without an appearance fee.

There is no other legitimate and physically

demanding sport where this happens. They risk

their lives daily.

They have greater balance and dexterity

than Kelly Slater and Valentino Rossi combined.

Greater fitness and upper body strength than

any other athlete according to several studies.

Greater courage is demanded of them

than in any other sport I can imagine. Not to

mention that split second decision making,

a component of most sports, is absolutely

exacerbated in race riding in terms not only of

winning but also survival.

This demands greater promotion and

celebration.

They come from extraordinarily diverse

backgrounds. Take this week at Flemington

alone.

Barend Vorster, here from South Africa via

Singapore, rides a winner on Oaks day. Young

South Australian Jake Toeroek scored on Derby

day - he’d not ridden a winner,

of any sort, in Melbourne until

January this year.

Meanwhile, Daryl “Digger”

McLellan, all but won the Oaks

on Never Listen on Thursday. On

Tuesday, he was punching them

around at Muswellbrook. The bush

reserves to first grade in two days is

unimaginable in any other arena.

There, at Muswellbrook,

he was locking horns with

61-year-old hall-of-famer Robert

Thompson who still more than

holds his own on any racecourse.

And while the usual suspects - Craig

Williams, Damien Oliver, Dwayne Dunn, Hugh

Bowman and Nash Rawiller - have largely

monopolised the Cup week winners (thus far)

- Billy Egan, Toeroek and Vorster along with an

Irishman and a handful of kiwis have been on

the board.

And on Cox Plate Day, 23-year-old Jamie

Kah had the better of 47-year-old Oliver who’s

been unstoppable since, in a Group 3 race

at the Valley while Linda Meech has also, as

always, been among the winners.

Meech has ridden more winners than any

other jockey in Victoria this season. She did

likewise, and by a fair way, last season.

Oliver may be nearing 50 but is riding

“better than ever” according to rival and

commentator Corey Brown.

Glen Boss is 50 and, in recent weeks, has

ridden the winners of two races worth $14

million and $7.5 million. No pressure.

They are quite remarkable these jockeys

coping with pressure and expectation and fear

of failure. The unheralded Declan Bates I’m

sure overcame elements of all of that to win

the Group 1 Rupert Clarke on Begood Toya

Mother.

Perhaps they learn to cope from an early

age. Michelle Payne rode her first winner at 15.

She was literally a little girl. I wondered then

at the almost surreal absurdity of wizened old

punters trusting their money to her. Little did

they know she’d win the Cup.

Now the jockeys have one more thing

to cope with - the vitriol of social media as

Michael Walker, for whom I feel sorry, certainly

discovered this week.

Across the board, the only solution is to

turn off these often insidious platforms.

In Walker’s specific case, the solution may

be to ban the whip. It’s inevitable. And the

reality is that jockeys, here and around the

world, are so good they will adapt.

Jockeys - the unsung heroes of the sporting world

Jamie Kah, Barend Vorster & Jake Toeroek SPORTPIXSTEVE MORAN

| 17 |

BY STEVE MORAN | @ANZ_NEWS

It was, unquestionably, a wonderful result

for Australasia in the 2019 Melbourne

Cup which produced the tightest finish

in 20 years.

However, it may be premature to declare

that it signals a return to continuing local

celebrations in the years to come on the first

Tuesday in November.

Less than one length separated the first five

to finish - from the winner Vow And Declare -

the Australian bred son of Declaration Of War

(War Front) - trained by Danny O’Brien to the

Paul Preusker trained Surprise Baby, the New

Zealand bred by Shocking (Street Cry) whose

career has been moulded in Australia.

The winner’s performance and that of

Surprise Baby, arguably the very best effort in a

very slowly run race, may be seen as portents of

a local resurrection.

While I’m sure that Vow And Declare and

Surprise Bay, veterans of just 13 and 11 starts

respectively, will remain forces in Australian

racing and that there are positive pointers

from the three-year-old stock of local stallions;

the argument against any wholesale local

rejuvenation in the Cup comes from the fact

that northern hemisphere bred runners filled

the other top seven placings in a race which had

just 2.1 lengths seperate the first nine.

The northern hemisphere bred three-year-

old Il Paradisio (Galileo) was arguably unlucky

not to have won and thereby produce a third

straight win for overseas bred and trained

horses of that age.

Lloyd Williams almost struck again with an

import, Master Of Reality (Frankel) which has

become a recurring theme. Prince Of Arran

(Shirocco) ran extremely well as he continues

to imitate/emulate the grand Red Cadeaux.

schooled a couple of times over the past couple

of weeks and seems to be in great order." Maher

remains confident that Big Blue can make it

to the Cheltenham Festival, with a number of

options on the table. "I'm still optimistic that

he can measure up in better races," Maher

added. "I suppose he is relatively lightly-raced

over jumps and some of those horses he was up

against last start, they're top of the game."

Star-studded nominations for Dubai World Cup night A total of 1,774 nominations have been received

for the Dubai World Cup card, held at Meydan on

March 28, which entails 902 horses trained in 21

countries. Australian interest includes inaugural

All-Star Mile (1600m) winner Mystic Journey

(Needs Further), who has been nominated

for the Dubai Turf (Gr 1, 1800m), while Chris

Waller has made an entry for the trailblazing

Nature Strip (Nicconi) in the Al Quoz Sprint (Gr

1, 1200m). The Tony and Calvin McEvoy-trained

Sunlight (Zoustar) also holds an entry in the

US$2 million contest, although connections have

indicated she will be aimed at Royal Ascot later

in the year. Cross Counter (Teofilo), who won the

2018 Melbourne Cup (Gr 1, 3200m) for Charlie

Appleby, holds a nomination in the Dubai Gold

Cup (Gr 1, 3200m). He won the race in 2019,

beating stable companion and fellow nominee

Ispolini (Dubawi), who was a late scratching from

last year’s Melbourne Cup. Click here to view the

nominations.

Pharoah’s owner Zayat in hot water Owner and breeder Ahmed Zayat, who

raced Triple Crown hero American Pharoah

(Pioneerof The Nile) and retains a share in the

now Ashford Stud-based stallion, has found

himself in legal hot water having been accused

of selling breeding shares that were being used

for collateral on outstanding debts. As such, in

an emergency hearing on Wednesday, Fayette

county judge Kim Bunnell granted a motion

ordering a receiver to seize control of Zayat

Stables, including its horses. The decision was

made after a New York investment group filed

a lawsuit in Lexington this week seeking at least

US$23 million from Zayat on the basis he had

missold breeding shares in American Pharoah.

First foal arrives for world champion sprinter Harry AngelHarry Angel (Dark Angel), the world champion

sprinter who won the Haydock Sprint Cup

(Gr 1, 6f) in record time, sired his first foal on

Wednesday when Karijini (Siyouni) produced

a healthy chestnut filly. "She's a very nice

foal and very strong for a maiden mare," said

Brightwalton Stud manager Sean Keane. "She's

well put together, short-coupled and with good

body and shoulder. I'm very happy with her."

Karijini, who won three all-weather sprints for

trainer Archie Watson, hails from the Colorspin

(High Top) family of Meon Valley Stud. Harry

Angel stands at Dalham Hall Stud at a fee of

£20,000.

Declaration Of War (War

level in Europe, has delivered for Australia

with a locally bred and trained victory in the

country’s biggest race.

The former Coolmore stallion Declaration

Of War, now domiciled in Japan, certainly left

his mark during his two-year stint Down Under,

not least of which allows Australia to lay claim to

In a thrilling four-way finish, the

Danny O’Brien-trained Vow And Declare ($11), who had raced near the

speed throughout, fought back under Craig Williams on the line to score

by a head.

Master Of Reality (Frankel) was second past the post but relegated to

fourth on protest, elevating Prince Of Arran (Shirocco) ($17) to runner-up

with Il Paradiso (Galileo) ($15) another nose back.

Vow And Declare ran 3:24.76 seconds in the cup on ground rated a

Soft 5, more than eight seconds outside Kingston Rule's (Secretariat)

3:16.3 track record set in 1990.

O’Brien said Williams had

pulled off a tactical masterstroke

on Vow And Declare, who was

runner-up to Japan’s Mer De

Glace (Rulership) in the Caulfield

Cup (Gr 1, 2400m).

"He'd been in front past

the winning post the first time

and, particularly for a horse

that normally settles midfield

or back, it was a different

position for him to be in,"

O’Brien said.

"Ultimately, it's been the winning move, I don't think he would've won

if he'd gone back.

"I thought it was an incredibly brave thing for him to do, to roll to the

post the first time.

"My feelings inside the last 100 metres were that he was going to run a

nice third or fourth, which would be a bit disappointing.

"The horse is a courageous horse he's got great stamina and I'm sure

he was headed but he just found some more to get his head out on the

line.

When Vow and Declare was passed in at auction, Paul Lansky

approached members of the group which race Lycurgus, among them

Geoff Corrigan, and a number of family members to form a new syndicate

to race the son of Declaration of War (War Front) with Danny O’Brien.

They must now be thrilled they became involved with the winner of

Australia’s most coveted race and to be sharing in the $5,722,690 he has

earned to date.

After Lycurgus, Geblitz produced the placed filly Blitz’n’Magic (Magic

Albert) in 2014 before Vow and Declare was born the following year but the

mare’s 2016 colt by Stratum (Redoute’s Choice) died. A sister to Lycurgus

by Star Witness (Starcraft) arrived in 2018 and she is to be offered as Lot

329 at January’s Magic Millions Yearling Sale at the Gold Coast in the

Widden Stud consignment.

This spring Geblitz has foaled a filly by Shalaa (Invincible Spirit) and

been bred back to American Pharoah (Pioneer of the Nile).

We wrote about Vow and Declare’s sire Declaration of War, a multiple

Group 1 winner, in yesterday’s ANZ Bloodstock News when profiling his

2019 Victoria Derby (Gr 1, 2500m) winner Warning.The former Coolmore

shuttler, now standing in Japan, has some pretty impressive statistics with

five Group/Grade 1 winners among a total of 24 stakes winners from his

early crops in Ireland, the United States and Australia which have given

him a high 7.4 per cent stakes winners-to-runners.

Twice a winner as a two-year-old in France, Declaration of War was

essentially bred for speed but was at his racing best at around 1600m to

2000m though was never tried over longer distances.

Vow and Declare comes from a family of high quality tracing back to

the famous “flying filly” Mumtaz Mahal (The Tetrarch) but breeding buffs

will be scratching their heads as to from where the gelding has derived his

stamina. My guess is that the source may be via Old Vic (Sadler’s Wells),

sire of his third dam Young Vic, a mare with little racing ability.

As you will see from the catalogue pedigree printed here, Young

Vic is an excellent producer but while her superbly-bred sire was a

disappointment at stud, he was outstanding as a racehorse, winning in

1989 both the Prix du Jockey Club (Gr 1, 2400m) and the Irish Derby (Gr

1, 1m 4f), two stiff tests.

One of Young Vic’s daughters, Youthful Presence (Dehere) produced

ATC Epsom Handicap (Gr 1, 1600m) winner Hauraki (Reset) and two

other stakes winners, most notably Kidnapped (Viscount), winner of the

South Australian Derby (Gr 1, 2500m).

Loralane (Habitat), fourth dam of Vow and Declare, established a

very strong branch of this wonderful Mumtaz Mahal family in Europe,

its most recent superstar being Golden Horn (Cape Cross), whose seven

wins included the Derby (Gr 1, 1m 4f), the Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe (Gr

1, 2400m), the Coral-Eclipse Stakes (Gr 1, 1m 2f) and the Irish Champion

Stakes (Gr 1, 1m 2f). Loralane is Golden Horn’s third dam.

The pedigree of Vow and Declare up close is dominated by a 3 x 4 cross

of Danehill’s sire Danzig (Northern Dancer) while he carries two sons

of another speed influence, Mr. Prospector (Raise a Native), in his fifth

generation plus another son in his sixth generation.There are also four

more infusions of Northern Dancer (Nearctic) in the sixth and seventh

generations of Vow and Declare’s genetic background.

CHARLIE FELLOWES | @FELLOWESRACING

What a day yesterday was –

it was unbelievable. Most

importantly Prince Of Arran

has come through the run

perfectly. He trotted up beautifully and polished

off all his feed, which is a great sign that the

horse isn’t stressed. He had a lovely long pick of

grass at Werribee this morning. Tash sent me a

message saying that she got so distracted giving

him grass she ended up staying out there for an

hour and a half. So he’s, as always, had the best

treatment since the run.

I never thought I was going to win

It was totally different to last year – I really

felt at one stage 12 months ago we were going

to win the race. But this year I never ever felt,

despite how close we were, that it was ours.

I always knew we were just held by Master

Of Reality and Vow And Declare. It probably

wasn’t until right on the line I realised how

close we actually were. I am incredibly proud of

him for running another fantastic race.

It was a very strong renewal with a lot of

strength and depth. They went a very steady

gallop and turned it into a bit of sprint which

meant those on the pace were massively at an

advantage. But the way it was run really suited

Prince Of Arran – he is such a relaxed, easy to

ride sort of horse which means that he really

can sit wherever you want, whereas if you

have a horse that gets a bit lit up they have to

get some cover, so although we were fortunate

with the way the race was run, we earned that

fortune and luck with his versatility and the way

he runs his races.

Michael Walker’s ride was just perfect. I

said after the Geelong Cup that was his best ride

he’s ever given him, but although we didn’t win,

I think Tuesday’s was just as good. He had him

in such a good position the whole way through

and he couldn't have ridden it any better.

The bottom line is that everything went

our way, the race played into our hands and

we just weren’t good enough on the day.

But he ran his heart out and there really is

nothing more you can ask from a horse. We

only got beaten a head, so we can’t come away

complaining, questioning what could have

been, as everything went our way. I’m not even

just talking about Tuesday either, really since

Goodwood we could not have had a more

perfect preparation into the race. I have said

that all along nothing went wrong. I was just

waiting for something, even small, to go amiss

but it hasn’t. We have been so, so lucky and I

don’t underestimate how fortunate we have

been with him.

The result was exactly what the race needed

Although obviously I would have loved

to have taken the Cup back to Newmarket, I

think the result was very, very important for

Australia. There were a few people in the race

that I thought I wouldn’t have minded losing

to — like Joseph O’Brien, he’s won the race

before, but he really is the most lovely guy and

I wouldn’t have minded being beaten by him.

But you also have to put Vow And Declare in

that bracket because it was a lovely story. It’s

the perfect Australian story: Australian-trained,

Australian-bred – just the right sort of horse you

would want to win the ultimate Australian race.

You got the feeling this year that Europeans

coming over and constantly winning it wasn’t

really doing it any favours. But Tuesday showed

that Australian horses can still be competitive

and can still win this amazing race. It was won

by a big syndicate of owners and it was just a

really, really good story for the race and of all

the horses to beat us I really didn’t begrudge

him for it.

But the love for Prince Of Arran has been

lovely and it’s very touching - they seem to

have taken him under their wing and clearly

have a lot of affection for him. But that really

is the kind of horse he is, he’s got a wonderful

personality. They also love the story of Tash and

her affection for the horse and he’s become a

real public favourite down here. His record in

Australia speaks for itself. In six starts he’s never

been out of the first three, placed in two Group

1s, placed in two Group 2s and won two Group

3s, it’s pretty unbelievable.

Japan or Hong Kong in the pipeline

So the immediate plan for Prince Of Arran

is either the Japan Cup or the Hong Kong Vase.

We were invited to Japan immediately after the

race and then overnight were invited to Hong

Kong as well which is great. I feel like Japan

is unbelievably tough - the ground is always

rattling quick and the Japanese are always very,

very difficult to beat on their own turf.

I am really going to consider both and get

an idea of both fields if I can and see what's

what. I have a feeling the Vase might be quite

strong this year. My first choice will be to go

to Hong Kong just because I feel it suits him

better. I thought he was flying in Hong Kong

last year, but the draw is so crucial there– if

you get drawn wide you are already at a huge

disadvantage before the race has even begun.

That is what I love about the Melbourne Cup

the draw is not the deciding factor as we saw on

Tuesday. Vow And Declare was drawn 21 and

sat in the box seat, how Craig Williams got him

in that position I do not know, which is sort of

what Michael Walker did last year from stall 20.

So plans have not yet been set in stone for

Arran for the rest of the year, but all being well

and he stays fit and healthy, all roads will lead

back to Melbourne again and we are hoping it

will be third time lucky and I can’t wait.

An emphatic three and a quarter

length win was the result, with Loving Gaby (I Am Invincible) and In Her

Time (Time Thief) filling the minor placings. Hot favourite Santa Ana

Lane (Lope De Vega) was uncharacteristically flat, finishing six lengths

from Nature Strip in sixth.

“I’m thrilled for the horse and thrilled for the connections, he has gone to a

new level this preparation, he has had only one real disappointment and that was

at his first start, apart from that he’s been faultless, he’s a star,” McDonald said.

“He was airborne, floating across the ground, I slipped him a bit more

rein at the 300m and I looked at the big screen and thought ‘oh no’, it felt

like I was six in front and he was still going through his gears and he ran it

out so strongly.”

Trainer Chris Waller revealed plans of tackling Royal Ascot next year.

“All preparation he has shown how well he is going, he’s a very happy

horse and that takes them a long way,” he said.

“We’ve been fortunate enough to takeover a very fast horse and we’ve

added a bit of our own fine tuning.

“I’m not to sure where he will have his next starts but I know the team

are keen to take him to Royal Ascot in June but there will certainly be a few

races before then.”

Sam Freedman said favourite Santa Ana Lane would enjoy an

extended spell after a hectic 2019.

"He's had a long year and I

think he was tired today, he raced

flat," Freedman told Racing.com.

"A lot of horses, when they

come back from Hong Kong, it

takes them a while to get over it.

"To be honest, I know he was

unlucky in The Everest but I don't

think he was at his best there

either.

"He's going to have a good

break and we'll see what we do

next year."

Santa Ana Lane’s jockey

Mark Zahra agreed the sprinter

was ‘flat’,

"He just went a bit tired

today," Zahra said.

"When I got the gaps on the

outside fence I thought he'd

zoom - nothing would've beat

the winner today - but he just

went like he's a tired horse."

Girl (Perugino), with the pair being out of Listed winner Strike High (Pre

Emptive Strike).

The mare has an unraced three-year-old sister to Nature Strip and

a two-year-old colt by Rosemont Stud’s Shamus Award (Snitzel), while

she has most recently been covered by New Zealand’s leading stallion

Savabeel (Zabeel).

Nature Strip was bred by Sean Buckley’s Golden Grove Stud and the

operation’s manager Anthony Swords does not regret parting with the

brilliant sprinter as a yearling.

“We sell good horses. It’s as simple as that,” Swords said.

“People often say ‘why would they sell their good ones?’ but that’s

what we do. We breed and raise very good horses and the owners of

Nature Strip are seeing that first hand. Good luck to them.’’

The proven ones: establishedstallions set to light up Karaka

A more compact three days

(as opposed to four in 2019),

plus an 11am day one start

time (as opposed to 3pm),

awaits the thoroughbred industry for

New Zealand Bloodstock’s 94th National

Yearling Sales which gets underway at

Karaka on Sunday. The more modern

Book 1, 2 and 3 format, instituted in

2018 to replace the Premier, Select and

Festival format, involves six successive

and solid days with more than 1200 lots

up for grabs. >>

Bright and new, or tried and true?

If you were to purchase only one yearling

out of Book 1, do you take a gamble on one of

the bright and sparkly first season sires, or do

you choose one by a proven sire?

This is an age-old dilemma and Karaka

Book 1 doesn’t make that choice any easier,

although it does go some way to explaining

why syndication has become necessary. One is

simply not enough.

The new kids on the block typically give way

to the “wait and see” formula and it is rare for a

first season sire to top either the sales aggregates

or averages. However, their representation this

year is solid, with 25 sires (16 in 2019) making

up 196 of the 677 lots, or 22 per cent of the

catalogue.

Indeed, the 11 New Zealand-based first

season sires (there were just four in 2019)

account for 151 lots, headed by Tivaci (High

Chaparral) with 40, Turn Me Loose (Iffraaj) (34),

Vadamos (Monsun) (28), Tarzino (Tavistock)

(20) and Belardo (Lope De Vega) (6).

Stud masters Russell Warwick (Westbury

Stud), Mark Chitty (Haunui Farm) and Mark

Chittick (Waikato Stud) should be, and likely

are, very encouraged after a small number

of yearlings by their new stallions - Tarzino,

Belardo and Tivaci respectively - sold well at

the recent Magic Millions Gold Coast Yearling

Sale.

Nevertheless, as evidenced by the results

achieved two weeks ago on the Gold Coast,

Australia’s established sires dominated

proceedings quite conclusively. New Zealand’s

newest stallions appear to offer huge promise,

but buyers largely look to tried and true.

Savabeel - Waikato StudRapidly approaching 100 individual stakes

winners (96 currently) and prize-money

that will surpass NZ$100 million this season,

Waikato Stud’s chief flagbearer Savabeel

(Zabeel) continues to be the glue that holds the

New Zealand breeding industry together.

For that reason, he will continue to dominate

sales proceedings. Sheer numbers (73 lots

catalogued) will certainly lead to him topping

the aggregate, while those same numbers will

make it difficult, but not impossible, for him to

top the average.

His reputation and standing is fully justified

having secured his fifth successive New Zealand

sires premiership.

Over the last three months, Savabeel has

sired Herbert Power Stakes (Gr 2, 2400m)

winner The Chosen One, Bendigo Cup (Gr 3,

2400m) winner Top Of The Range, Tauranga

Stakes (Gr 2, 1600m) scorer Supera, Auckland

Thoroughbred Breeders’ Stakes (Gr 2, 1400m)

winner Yearn, Cal-Isuzu Stakes (Gr 2, 1600m)

winner The Real Beel, Manawatu Cup (Gr 3,

2300m) scorer Concert Hall, Rich Hill Mile (Gr

2, 1600m) winner Prise De Fer and Showbeel,

who last Saturday claimed the Desert Gold

Stakes (Gr 3, 1600m). Those successes have

ensured buyers will not be able to ignore his

powerful presence.

Darci Brahma - The Oaks Stud

The Oaks Stud’s Darci Brahma (Danehill)

has enjoyed a welcome recent resurgence.

Undeservedly underrated, he consistently ranks

in the top three New Zealand sires year after year,

but the current season has been a revelation.

His son Catalyst is a true star three-year-

old and whose contempt for his opposition is

something to behold. His dazzling wins have

captured the hearts and minds of the racing

public and he is one very exciting racehorse.

Backing up Catalyst is Harlech, an

impressive winner of the James and Annie

Sarten Memorial Stakes (Gr 2, 1400m)

immediately prior to a Darci Brahma quinella

when finishing a valiant second to Catalyst in

the New Zealand 2,000 Guineas (Gr.1, 1600m).

Don’t forget the filly, Kali, who took out the John

Grigg Stakes (Gr 3, 1400m) in mid-October.

Iffraaj - Haunui Farm

It hardly seems to have been three years

since two Derby-winning sons of Iffraaj

(Zafonic), the brilliant Gingernuts and the

tough Jon Snow, took the 2016-17 autumn

three-year-old scene by storm, both in New

Zealand and Australia.

As a result, Iffraaj’s 2017 covering book was

full of quality mares and Book 1 sees 41 lots on

offer by this world-class sire.

His Wyndspelle, from the same crop as

Gingernuts and Jon Snow and a former Waikato

Guineas (Gr 2, 2000m) winner, was recently

and justifiably rewarded with a maiden Group 1

success, taking out the prestigious Captain Cook

Stakes (Gr 1, 1600m) at Trentham last month.

Iffraaj has sired 14 winners around the

world in the last four weeks.

Ocean Park - Waikato StudDiametrically opposed to Iffraaj’s current

situation, and proof of just how difficult it is to

predict sire popularity three years in advance,

Savabeel’s barnmate Ocean Park (Thorn Park) has

a far smaller representation of nine lots, a severe

drop on the 45 catalogued in this sale last year.

Ocean Park’s stock has soared this season,

with the huge earnings achieved by Kolding

catapulting him to fifth in the Australian sires

premiership. Backing up Kolding this past

spring and early summer are Tofane, a dual

Group 3 winner in Melbourne, as well as

Oceanex and Pretty To Sea (the latter as recently

as Boxing Day).

As was the case at November’s Ready

to Run 2YO Sale, the Ocean Parks will be in

demand and with so few on offer, competition

may be strong.

Per Incanto - Little Avondale Stud

The third-leading sire in New Zealand by

earnings in 2018-19, and third in the current

season, Per Incanto (Street Cry) keeps churning

out winners and he leads the 2019-20 list by the

metric of wins and winners. In the past four

weeks he has sired 21 individual winners in

Hong Kong, Singapore and Australia, as well as

in New Zealand.

His Mauna Kea took out the recent

Thompson Handicap (Gr 3, 1600m) and

Lightning Jack, the fast-finishing winner

of the Gore Guineas (Listed, 1335m) last

Saturday, became his 15th individual stakes

winner.

Tavistock - Cambridge StudCambridge Stud owners Brendan and Jo

Lindsay, plus managers Henry Plumptre and

Marcus Corban, are likely pleased to have

waved goodbye to 2019. It was a shocker.

There is not one industry person who

doesn’t feel for them as losing three stallions in

such a short space of time is unimaginably sad

fortune, while losing Tavistock (Montjeu) is a

major blow.

Perhaps one or more of his 42 colts (68

lots in total) will burn up the track then find a

home back at Cambridge Stud and continue

his legacy. Lot 86, the half-brother to champion

mare Melody Belle (Commands), might be the

one.

Reliable Man - Westbury Stud

Reliable Man (Dalakhani) is really

hitting his straps. Westbury’s under-the-

radar sire can claim 25 stakes performers

(14 female) including Miami Bound, the

outstanding winner of last year’s VRC Oaks

(Gr 1, 2500m).

She has been followed by 18 winners in the

past four weeks, including Ellerslie Dunstan

Feeds Championship (1500m) winner Master

Painton, Caulfield winner Mr Dependable,

Sydney winner Greenspan, Hong Kong winner

Reliable Team and Romani Girl, who ran third

in the lucrative $1 million Magic Million Fillies

& Mares Plate (1300m) on Magic Millions

raceday.

Sacred Falls - Waikato StudSadly, Waikato Stud lost the services of

Sacred Falls (O’Reilly) towards the end of last

year’s covering season. His first crop are just

three-year-olds and it remains to be seen how

much his loss can be measured in terms of sire

success.

As is often the case, however, there is every

possibility of a future star. All Saints’ Eve, a

three-year-old filly having her third start, won

very nicely at Warwick Farm on January 15.

Sacred Falls’ best form was as an

autumn three-year-old, including his

defeat of Pierro (Lonhro) in the Doncaster

Handicap (Gr 1, 1600m), but it shouldn’t be

forgotten he was a top-tier winner at both

four and five as well.

With 31 representatives in Book 1 plus two

further crops, one of his sons could continue

the legacy of multiple champion sire O’Reilly

(Last Tycoon).

El Roca - Westbury StudStar three-year-old filly Travelling Light

looks very exciting and has provided Westbury

Stud with much to shout about as a daughter of

their El Roca (Fastnet Rock).

In only six starts she has won five times,

including taking out the Levin Classic (Gr 1,

1600m) on January 11. A stakes winner on two

further occasions, her only defeat came in the

New Zealand 1,000 Guineas (Gr 1, 1600m). The

way she dealt with the boys at Trentham signals

a bright future.

The son of Fastnet Rock (Danehill) has just

five lots catalogued in Book 1. Both the stud

and the auctioneers are probably wishing there

were a few more.

Charm Spirit - Windsor Park Stud

Similar to El Roca, Windsor Park Stud have

much to be pleased about regarding Charm

Spirit (Invincible Spirit) with his son Scorpz in

terrific form leading up to next month’s New

Zealand Derby (Gr 1, 2400m), for which he is

favourite. His back-to-back impressive recent

stakes successes suggest the Derby is well

within his scope.

Charm Spirit also has two very good fillies

in excellent form, namely Lilikoi, the winner of

the recent Eulogy Stakes (Gr 3, 1600m), as well

as Fascino, who won the Fillies Classic (Gr 2,

1600m) at Moonee Valley in October.

Australia has its say Australian-based sires account for a

significant proportion of this year’s Book 1,

with 54 different sires represented (46 in 2019).

Twelve are first season sires but among the

remainder are the same sires that captured all

the headlines at the recent Magic Millions Gold

Coast Yearling Sale, albeit in much smaller

numbers here at Karaka.

Underlining this aspect of buyers’

preferences, each of the 10 yearlings that

fetched $1 million or more were by established

sires, including three each by I Am Invincible

(Invincible Spirit) and Exceed And Excel

(Danehill).

The top five by aggregate - I Am Invincible,

Snitzel (Redoute’s Choice), Not A Single Doubt

(Redoute’s Choice), Exceed And Excel and

Sebring (More Than Ready) - accounted for

$63 million, or 35 per cent of the sale gross.

Four of the same five stallions were the leaders

on average (three or more sold), with I Am

Invincible topping that list with an amazing

$482,000.

A notch below those listed, yet both

effective and popular, are a host of established

sires. This list is led by Pierro (Lonhro) with

10 lots followed by Dundeel (High Chaparral)

(6), Hinchinbrook (Fastnet Rock) (6), No Nay

Never (Scat Daddy) (5) and Zoustar (Northern

Meteor) (4). With one or two lots are Fastnet

Rock, Written Tycoon (Last Tycoon), Deep

Field (Northern Meteor), Medaglia d’Oro (El

Prado) and Nicconi (Bianconi).

Charm Spirit WINDOR PARK STUD

Crystal ball, anyone?A reality of breeding is that matings must

be planned well in advance of sales. Current

yearlings are the result of decisions made in

2017 and, in the case of proven sires, based on

race results of 2017.

Predicting future sire success is folly, otherwise

how does one explain why Rip Van Winkle (Galileo),

sire of New Zealand’s second best horse, Te Akau

Shark, has just three lots in Book 1?

In addition, Swiss Ace (Secret Savings), sire of

quality sprinter and recent winner of the Railway

Stakes (Gr 1, 1200m) Julius, has just two.

Rip Van Winkle averaged 84 live foals his

first four seasons at stud. In 2018 (the crop

represented this year), he produced just 32

live foals. Meanwhile, Swiss Ace averaged

77 live foals his first seven seasons. In 2018,

that number had dropped to 58. In addition,

Ocean Park averaged 103 live foals his first four

seasons, but just 62 in 2018.

Finally, look for Savabeel to preside over

all others and Iffraaj to have a very good sale.

Of the first season sires, Tivaci is expected to

make a lot of noise, with a strong buzz detected

around his offspring in the lead-up to the sale.

Cellsabeel shot to the head of the

market for the Golden Slipper

Stakes (Gr 1, 1200m) with an

impressive six-length success at

Rosehill on Saturday.

Having made a promising debut in the $1m

Golden Gift over the same track and distance

on November 9, the daughter of late Yarraman

Park resident Hinchinbrook (Fastnet Rock) was

equipped with blinkers for the first time in the

nine-runner contest.

She was a touch slow to move and found

herself one from the rear in the early stages, but

she improved into fifth on the rails passing the

600-metre marker.

Tommy Berry eased her deeper and into

clear running at the home turn and she sprinted

well, taking the lead with 200 metres left to run

before drawing away stylishly on the Heavy 8

track, looking a classy filly in the making.

Cellsabeel’s success was another feather in

the cap of training duo Ciaron Maher and David

Eustace, whose two-year-old season continues

to go from strength to strength, highlighted

by Away Game’s (Snitzel) victory in the Magic

Millions 2YO Classic (RL, 1200m).

Cellsabeel is the TAB’s $6 favourite for the

Slipper and while she is already the highest-

rated juvenile of the season so far, her pedigree

augurs nicely for Group 1 assignments moving

forward.

She is one of 11 named foals, 10 of whom have

raced and seven of whom have won out of Railway

Stakes (Gr 1, 1200m) winner Our Egyptian Raine

(Desert Sun), who was crowned New Zealand’s

champion older female sprinter in 2002-03. She

was placed a further 10 times in top-tier company,

including the Lightning Stakes (Gr 1, 1000m) and

the All-Aged Stakes (Gr 1, 1400m) in 2004.

In turn, Cellsabeel is a half-sister to Egyptian

Symbol (Stratum), a dual Group 3 winner who

has earned over $1.5 million in prize-money,

and Strathmore (Fastnet Rock), who was Group

1-placed in Hong Kong.

Our Egyptian Raine also has a yearling colt

by Vinery Stud resident All Too Hard (Casino

Prince) and produced a colt by his barnmate

Headwater (Exceed And Excel) last year.

Meanwhile, the final crop of yearlings by

Hinchinbrook are selling this year, with six

youngsters by the late sire catalogued in the

Book 1 session of the upcoming NZB National

Yearling Sale at Karaka.

BY KEN BOMAN | @ANZ_NEWS

The Coolmore-raced and Lindsay

Park-trained filly Personal (Fastnet

Rock) overcame difficulties to

score impressively at Saturday’s

Flemington meeting, a performance endorsed

by fast sectional times.

After beginning slowly on debut when

second in a two-year-old fillies’ maiden

(1125m) at Geelong on January 2, Craig

Williams rode her patiently in the two-year-old

handicap (1100m) on Saturday and after being

second last early on, she settled nicely between

runners in fifth spot.

Personal was shuffled back to last in the

seven-runner field at the 200-metre point

before Williams was able to ease her deeper

and into clear running.

Personal then showed a very good turn of

foot, grabbing the lead nearing the post and

winning by half a length with something in

hand. The Mick Price and Michael Kent jnr-

trained filly Parlophone (I Am Invincible) ran

second, with Godolphin’s Amateurish (Brazen

Beau) a further long-head away third.

Personal’s time for the 1100-metre journey

was 1:05.64 (11.93 200m rate), but it was her

sectional times that best demonstrated the

merit of the performance.

Personal’s 200-metre breakdown (from the

1000m) was: 11.29, 11.43 (400m in 22.72), 11.11

(600m in 33.83), 11.53 (800m in 45.36) with her

final 200 metres in 11.50 to give her a quick final

1000-metre time of 56.86.

A $640,000 purchase at the 2019 Inglis

Australian Easter Yearling Sale, Personal looks

set for a good career, while the runner-up

Parlophone and the third-placed Amateurish

are also lightly-raced fillies with the potential to

progress to better things.

The feature at Flemington was the

Kensington Stakes (Listed, 1000m) and while it

was only a five-runner field it provided a keenly-

contested affair, with the first four finishing less

than a length apart.

Victory went to the consistent South

Australian-trained sprinter Bold Star (Needs

Further), who won by a nose from Causeway

Girl (Shamus Award), with All Too Royal (All

Too Hard) another half-head away in third and

Time To Reign (Time For War) fourth.

The time for the journey was 58.99 but from

a sectional perspective it was a race of extremes,

with the first 400 metres being clocked in a

pedestrian 26.92 (13.46 200m rate) while the final

600 metres was a very fast 32.07 (10.69 200m rate).

That tempo was set by the Gary Portelli-

trained sprinter Time To Reign, who was

having his first start since finishing fifth in the

Golden Slipper Stakes (Gr 1, 1200m) at Rosehill

last March, and jockey Damien Oliver clearly

did not overtax the colt in the early stages.

The leading rider has demonstrated his

excellent judgement of pace on countless

occasions and his tactics almost paid off on

Time To Reign’s return as he was only overtaken

in the closing stages.

The slow early pace resulted in fast closing

sectionals, with the winner Bold Star clocking

31.89 (last 600m), 21.12 (last 400m) and 10.68

(last 200m); Causeway Girl clocking 31.69

(last 600m), 20.98 (last 400m) and 10.64 – the

quickest of the race; and All Too Royal clocking

31.92 (last 600m), 21.18 (last 400m) and 10.73

for his final 200 metres.

At Saturday’s Rosehill meeting, one of the

highlights was the stunning victory of the the

Ciaron Maher and David Eustace-trained filly

Cellsabeel (Hinchinbrook) in the two-year-old

handicap (1100m).

Having her second race start, Cellsabeel

settled back in the field after a slow beginning,

but she stamped her class over the final stages

in racing away to score brilliantly by six lengths.

Racing in blinkers for the first time,

Cellsabeel was clearly a class above her

opposition and she is now the top-rated

juvenile of the season so far as connections set

her on a path towards the Golden Slipper at

Rosehill on March 21.

Cellsabeel’s come-from-behind racing style

was suited by a fast mid-race tempo, which was

set by the Gerald Ryan-trained colt Return With

Honour (Fastnet Rock), who worked hard in the

early stages to find the lead from a wide barrier.

Return With Honour clocked (from the

1000 metres) 22.45 (400m) 34.37 (600m) and

46.11 (800m) before that effort told in the rain

affected conditions and he dropped out to

finish seventh.

In coming from well back in the field,

Cellsabeel returned impressive closing

sectionals on the Heavy 8 track, with the

talented filly running her last 1000 metres in

57.87, last 800 metres in 46.82, last 600 metres

in 35.31 and 23.59 for her final 400 metres.

Another juvenile to take the eye last

weekend was Cellsabeel’s stablemate Prague

(Redoute’s Choice), who impressed in taking

out the two-year-old maiden handicap (1200m)

at Friday night’s Canterbury meeting.

A $1.6 million purchase at the 2019 Magic

Millions Gold Coast Yearling Sale, Prague

settled nicely for Tommy Berry, tracking a good

pace in third place on the rails before getting

through to be in a challenging position on

turning for home.

Prague got to the front halfway down the

straight and then drew clear to score easily

by two lengths from the front-running Easy

Campese (Sidestep), with the Chris Waller-

trained colt Spokesman (Press Statement) a

further long-head away third. The time was

1:12.07 on the Soft 7 track.

There was a solid mid-race tempo set by the

leader with the 600 metre section (from the 1000m

to the 200m) clocked in 34.78, which played into

the hands of Prague, who showed his potential to

advance to better things in coming from off the

pace to score comfortably at the post.

The final word this week goes to Tasmanian

filly Still A Star (Toronado), who impressed On

The Watch in the way she took out Saturday

night’s Launceston Guineas (Listed, 2100m),

her fifth win - with five seconds - in 10 starts.

Despite working early on from a difficult

barrier, she settled nicely in sixth place, easily

took the lead on turning for home and then

drew away for a very easy win. She ran the 2100

metres out strongly, clocking 2:10.86 for that

distance and 48.56 for her last 800 metres.

The victory suggested that Still A Star could be

the next Tasmanian-trained horse to travel across

the Tasman and prove effective on the mainland.

BY DAVID MORGAN | HKJC_RACING

Lyle Hewitson earned a long-awaited

and deserved first Happy Valley win

on Wednesday to help trainer David

Ferraris continue his solid form this

term, particularly with his stable’s old-stagers.

The two-time South African champion

jockey has had a stark introduction to Hong

Kong racing, with his stats rolling into tonight’s

nine-race card reading one win from 174 rides –

a win strike rate of 0.57 per cent.

But Hewitson has not buckled in the face of

limited opportunities. After enduring a barren

four months before sealing his breakthrough

Hong Kong win at Sha Tin, the extra 24 days

for his Valley follow-up must have seemed a

breeze.

“It’s probably a lot more exciting here at

the Valley with the atmosphere,” Hewitson said

after driving the Ferraris-trained Kiram (Elusive

City) to a neck verdict in the Class 3 Hung To

Handicap (1650m).

“Without blowing my own trumpet, I feel

I’ve been riding really well and getting positive

results from limited opportunities. Obviously,

when I get that little bit of a squeak I have to

make the most of it.”

Ferraris was pleased for his 22-year-old

countryman whose talent, he believes, deserves

more success.

“It’s lovely,” the trainer said. “Lyle should

have ridden a lot more winners, but as a client

of mine said, this is a cruel place; and there’s

no reason why certain jockeys should be riding

winners and he isn’t, because he is, in my

opinion, better than a lot of them riding here.

But that’s the way it goes.”

Kiram’s win was his second this season

from only four outings, suggesting the nine-

year-old French import is racing as well as he

ever has. And it followed a success at Sha Tin on

Sunday for Ferraris’ eight-year-old Magnetism

(Monsieur Bond), another two-time winner

this term.

“Him and Magnetism, I love training these

old boys,” Ferraris said. “I take pride in keeping

them sound and they’re just wonderful old

horses and I make sure they go to nice homes

when it’s time to retire.

“I told Lyle to lead because there didn’t

seem to be much pace on and this old horse is

in great form, and I knew that if he kicked at the

top of the straight with a lead they’d struggle to

catch him.”

Hewitson took the bull by the horns with

900 metres to race, allowing his mount to stride

to the front; the 39/1 shot was determined in

holding off runner-up Farshad (Kendargent).

“It was really nice to overcome a deep

draw (10), there were a lot of things against the

horse and he’s pulled that off, so it’s a win full of

merit and one I think I can be pretty proud of,”

Hewitson said.

“Although this horse is probably at his best

in Class 4, he had a light weight and with no

speed in the race we adopted tactics that won

him the race, so that’s a feather in his cap.”

Tony Piccone was also on the mark for the

first time at the downtown track, partnering

the Tony Millard-trained Sparkling Dragon

(O'Reilly) to a three-quarters of a length score

in section one of the Class 3 Hoi Yuen Handicap

(1200m). The Frenchman, 22 days into his

first Hong Kong contract, picked up his three

previous wins at Sha Tin.

Ho helps Fownes end drought

Caspar Fownes ended a dry spell stretching

back to December 18 with a double that owed

plenty to the skill and confidence of jockey

Vincent Ho.

“I’d forgotten what it’s like,” Fownes

quipped after Ho had sealed the brace for his

old boss aboard Shamport (Shamardal) – fresh

off a spell at Conghua – in race three, the Class 4

Shing Yip Handicap (1200m).

“He’s a horse that, truthfully speaking has

been quite disappointing,” Fownes admitted.

“On his form in Australia he looked like he’d be

at least an 80 or 80-plus horse in Hong Kong but

he just never came up to what he looked like he

was going to be.

“It was a lovely ride again by Vincent –

it’s wonderful to see my old apprentice ride

some winners for me and ride with so much

confidence. He got him in a beautiful position

from the draw (gate seven), which was a bit

tricky and did his job nicely in the end.”

Ho kicked off the night with a sharp tactical

move in the opener, the Class 5 Yue Man

Handicap (2200m).

The rider had his mount Sky Gem (Niagara)

at the tail after a slow start but the pedestrian

pace up front prompted a rapid, field-skirting

move to lead with 650 metres to race – the

Fownes-trained four-year-old forged on to land

a first win by two and three-quarter lengths.

“The horse had been racing quite well and

dropping down in the ratings off some quite

good runs,” Fownes noted.

“I said to Vincent it looked a race devoid of

speed and I said ‘the horse is rock-hard fit so

if the sectionals are slow down the back, you

take off’. He rated him beautifully and it was a

winning move.”

Fownes and Ho were denied a rapid treble

in race four, section two of the Class 4 Wai Yip

Handicap (1650m). Ho had the lead halfway

down the straight on the Fownes-trained Royal

Racer (Dreamscape) but had to settle for second

when Joao Moreira delivered the Frankie

Lor-trained Flash Famous (Ilovethiscity) on a

revving run to win by half a length.

Flash Famous was another winner off

a Conghua prep, as was Very Sweet Orange

(Exceed and Excel), who scraped home in the

Class 4 Mut Wah Handicap (1000m) to move

Alfred Chan to within one win of reducing his

10lb claim.

The apprentice set the pace on the Me Tsui-

trained son of Exceed And Excel (Danehill),

who put his nose down just at the right moment

to hold on by a short-head and the same

from the closing Dr Proactive (Denman) and

Winner’s Heart (Ambidexter).

Premiership leader Moreira made it a

double and took his season’s tally to 61 when

the John Size-trained Dor Dor (Shamexpress)

closed late off a rail run to nab runner-up Starlit

Knight (Fath) and land section one of the Wai

Yip Handicap (1650m).

Silvestre de Sousa and trainer Manfred Man

teamed up to score with Compassion Star (Bullbars)

in the Class 4 Shing Yip Handicap (1200m), the six-

year-old’s fourth win from 27 starts.

The night’s finale, section two of the Class 3

Hoi Yuen Handicap (1200m), went to the Benno

Yung-trained Hinchinlove (Hinchinbrook)

who, under Derek Leung, notched his first

Hong Kong win at the 18th attempt.

Hong Kong racing continues at Sha Tin on

Monday, January 27, with the first race set for

12pm.
