GRADE I WINNER STOPCHARGINGMARIA RETIREDBy Eric Mitchell
Reigning Longines Breeders' Cup Distaff (gr. I)
winner Stopchargingmaria has been retired from
racing, according to Shannon Potter, president of
Town and Country Racing.
"She has always been a horse that is easy to
read," Potter said Sept. 7. "She's shown this year
that she is not feeling it anymore, so she came home
yesterday happy and sound."
With 14 in-the-money finishes from 18 starts,
including nine victories, Stopchargingmaria ends her
career with grade I wins in the TVG Coaching Club
American Oaks and Alabama Stakes for previous
owner Mike Repole, and the Breeders' Cup Distaff for
the mother/daugher team of Louise Courtelis and Kiki
Courtelis, the owners of Town and Country Racing.
Todd Pletcher trained the daughter of Tale of the
Cat—Exotic Bloom, by Montbrook, her entire career.

“Because of the quality racing and unique course, Kentucky Downs is challenging and fun to handicap,
and with their large fields, the payoffs are great.”

Bred by Harvey Clarke and Brookdale Farm, Stop-
chargingmaria sold for $47,000 to Woodford Thor-
oughbreds at the Keeneland September yearling sale
in 2012 before Repole bought her for $220,000 at the
Ocala Breeders' Sales Co.'s 2013 selected sale of 2-year-
olds in training.
The Courtelis acquired Stopchargingmaria after
Repole offered her through the 2014 Fasig-Tipton
November sale, where she brought a final bid of
$3.15 million but failed to meet her reserve price.
The Courtelis contacted Repole after the sale through
Pletcher, bought her privately, and returned her to
racing. In Town and Country's colors, Stopchargingma-
ria won the Allaire DuPont Distaff Stakes (gr. III) and
the Shuvee Handicap (gr. III) on her way to winning
the Distaff. In 2015 alone, she picked up $1.43 million
of her $3,014,000 in earnings.

"Stopchargingmaria is not only one of the best fillies
we have had in our barn. She has become part of the
family," Pletcher said. "She deserves a great retirement."
Potter said no plans have been discussed regarding
breeding the mare next year. She retires to Town and
Country Farm near Georgetown, Ky.
"We have not got around to those discussions yet,"
he said. "She has given us the biggest thrill we've had in
racing, so we are just enjoying having her on the farm."
Kiki Courtelis, chief executive officer of Town and
Country Racing, said she hoped to watch Stopcharg-
ingmaria defend her Distaff title this year, but acknowl-
edged it was more important to have her retire in good
health.
"She has given us so much joy. It is our turn to give
back to her by honoring her wishes," Kiki Courtelis said.
"We are thrilled to have her home sound." BH

OFFLEE WILD DIES IN TURKEY AT AGE 16By Eric Mitchell
Grade I winner Offlee Wild died of a heart attack
Sept. 6 at the farm of his owner Tevfik Celikoglu
in Turkey, according to the Turkish Jockey Club.
The 16-year-old sire of 2009 champion 2-year-old
filly She Be Wild and multiple grade I winner Bayern
died while he was taken from his stall to his paddock
around 8:30 p.m. local time. The cause of death was
confirmed by veterinarians.
Offlee Wild was bred in Kentucky by Dorothy Matz
and sold at the 2001 Keeneland September year-
ling sale through Middlebrook Farm's consignment
for $325,000 to Azalea Stables. At 3 in 2003 he won
the Holy Bull Stakes (gr. III) and finished third in the
Toyota Blue Grass Stakes (gr. I), and continued im-
proving with age for trainer Tom Smith. At 4 he was
transferred to trainer Rick Dutrow Jr., and won the
grade II Massachusetts Handicap. At 5 he captured
the Suburban Handicap (gr. I) and Excelsior Breed-
ers' Cup Handicap
(gr. III). The son of
Wild Again is the
second graded
stakes winner pro-
duced by Alvear (by
Seattle Slew), a half
sister to top sire
Dynaformer.
Quick out of the
gate at stud, Offlee
Wild was the lead-
ing freshman sire
of 2009, powered
by the brilliant
performances of
Nancy Mazzoni's
She Be Wild, who
won three stakesm,
including the Grey
Goose Breeders'
Cup Juvenile Fillies
(gr. I) for trainer
Wayne Catalano.
The filly ended the
year with $1,311,040
in earnings. Offlee Wild stood his first four seasons at
Darley.
Offlee Wild's next big runner would not appear
until 2014, when Kaleem Shah's Bayern broke his
maiden in his first start in early January at Santa Anita
Park and two races later finished third in the Arkan-
sas Derby (gr. I). Bred by Helen Alexander, Bayern
won four graded stakes for Hall of Fame trainer Bob
Baffert, including the 2014 Breeders' Cup Classic
and the William Hill Haskell Invitational Stakes (both
grade I). He also won the Pennsylvania Derby (gr. II)
and the Woody Stephens Stakes (gr. II). He entered
stud in 2016 at Hill 'n' Dale Farms near Lexington,
where his fee is $15,000.
Out of 441 foals of racing age, Offlee Wild has
sired 18 black-type stakes winners and 16 black-type-
placed runners worldwide through Sept. 6. His stakes
winners include six graded or group stakes winners.
He was relocated to Turkey for the 2015 breeding
season and is represented by 19 Turkish-bred foals
this year. BH

LEPAROUX READY TO REJOIN TEPINBy Blood-Horse Staff
Jockey Julien Leparoux, who injured his wrist at
Saratoga Race Course in August, is set to rejoin
champion Tepin the $1 million Ricoh Woodbine Mile
(Can-IT) Sept. 17 at Woodbine.
Leparoux has six mounts on the Sept. 8 card at
Kentucky Downs for his return to racing, after recov-
ering from a non-displaced fracture of his left wrist
he sustained because of a saddle slip in the Aug. 6
Fasig-Tipton De La Rose Stakes in New York. He has
been aboard the 2015 champion turf female for her
last 12 starts, including a victory over males in last
year's Breeders' Cup Mile (gr. IT) and a dominant run
in her most recent outing, the Queen Anne (Eng-I) at
Royal Ascot.
The Bernstein mare trained by Mark Casse
breezed five furlongs over the Saratoga turf training
course in :59.88 Sept. 5 under jockey Florent Geroux,
but the Woodbine Mile mount was always reserved
for Leparoux.
"That was never in question," Casse said. "Right
now, (Geroux) is the understudy and he's got to know
Tepin quite well, but there was never any question
that Julien would ride her.
"Julien is, and has been, a real big part of our team
and any time you have a team player down, it hurts.
He's breezed horses for us this week at Churchill.
We've been anxious to have him back and not just for
Tepin. He'll ride Airoforce this weekend in the Dueling
Grounds Derby (at Kentucky Downs) for us."
Casse was particularly impressed with Tepin's
most recent breeze, in which she worked in company
with Enstone.
"Tepin was super," Casse said. "She's training as
good as she ever has, if not better. She worked with
Enstone, a Canadian-bred we ran at Saratoga and got
beat a head."
Tepin is slated to work once more at Saratoga
before shipping to Woodbine Sept. 13 with an entou-
rage of stakes hopefuls.
"Tepin will work on Sunday at Saratoga and arrive
at Woodbine, with an entire contingency of horses,
probably on Tuesday," Casse said. "Tepin, World Ap-
proval, Enstone, and Black Canary will come up. Irad
Ortiz will ride Black Canary in the Natalma."
Casse has seven fillies nominated to the Natalma
(Can-IT) and another five to
the Summer Stakes (Can-IIT).
Both juvenile events, slated for
one mile on the turf Sept 18,
are part of the "Win and You're
In" series for the respective
Juvenile Fillies Turf (gr. IT) and
the Juvenile Turf (gr. IT).
"If all goes well we have
Thora Barber, Victory to Vic-
tory, Black Canary, Enstone,
and possibly Kodiak Gal for the
Natalma," Casse said. "And as
far as the Summer, we have
Conquest Sure Shot and Con-
quest Farenheit."
Casse noted that Woodbine
Mile nominee Conquest En-
forcer will instead race Sept. 11
in the $100,000 Allied Forces
Stakes, a six-furlong turf sprint
at Belmont Park. BH

SALES UPDATE
TOP 10 KEENELAND SEPTEMBER PINHOOK PROSPECTSBy Ron Mitchell
Based on their respective purchase prices
when they initially went through the sales ring
as weanlings, three colts sired by Pioneerof the
Nile are among the top 10 pinhook prospects for
the Keeneland September yearling sale, which
runs Sept. 12-25.
Hunter Valley Farm, which hit a home run when
a Tapit colt bought as a weanling for $500,000 was
sold for $800,000 to China Horse Club at this year’s
Fasig-Tipton Saratoga yearling sale, seeks another
pinhook score with Hip 396. Bred in Kentucky by
Richard L. and Katherine H. Elam, the full brother
to grade II winner Cairo Prince and half brother to
the dam of grade I winner Outwork was bought
by Hunter Valley for $410,000 from the St. George
Sales consignment at Keeneland November.
The other top Keeneland September pinhook
prospects sired by Pioneeerof the Nile, the WinStar
stallion responsible for Triple Crown winner Ameri-
can Pharoah, are Hips 529 and 266.
Consigned by Warrendale Sales, Hip 529 is a
full brother to grade I winner Midnight Storm and
was bred in Kentucky by Alex Venneri and Mar-
jorie Post Dye. He was bought by Venneri Racing
for $300,000 from Hunter Valley Farm at Keene-
land last November.
Hip 266, from the extended female family of
grade I winners Purge, Jersey Town, and Jersey Girl,
was a $290,000 Keeneland November purchase by
Baccari Bloodstock from Paramount Sales. Bred in
Kentucky by Charles Fipke, he is part of Baccari’s
Keeneland consignment.
The second highest priced Keeneland pinhook
prospect is Hip 477, a Tapit filly from the female
family of Canadian Triple Crown winner With Ap-
proval, classic victor Touch Gold, and grade I winner
Brilliant Speed. Bred in Kentucky by Hill ‘n’ Dale
Equine Holdings and Hill ‘n’ Dale Farms, the filly
was bought by Siena Farms for $350,000 from Hill
‘n’ Dale Sales Agency as a weanling at Keeneland’s
November sale. She is consigned by Taylor Made
Sales Agency.
Hip 282 is a Smart Strike half sister to graded
stakes-placed Cautious Giant, consigned by Baccari
Bloodstock. She was bought by Casino King for
$310,000 as a weanling from Eaton Sales, agent for
breeder Grousemont Farm.
A colt from the first crop of Claiborne Farm’s Orb
and produced from grade III winner Just Louise, a
half sister to multiple graded winner Sara Louise,
was a $300,000 Keenelend November acquisition
by Norwood Stables from Paramount Sales. Con-
signed as Hip 430 by Dromoland Farm, the colt was
bred in Kentucky by Springhouse Farm.
The only yearling among the top 10 pinhook
prospects that did not previously sell at Keene-
land is Hip 533, a Japanese-bred son of Stay Gold
bought by WinStar Farm for the U.S. equivalent
of $259,200 at the JRA July sale last year. Bred
by and offered at auction in Japan by Paca Paca
Farm, the colt consigned to Keeneland by Tay-
lor Made Sales Agency is out of the High Yield
mare Nan, runner-up in the Del Mar Oaks (gr. IT)
and bought by Paca Paca for $150,000 from the
Fasig-Tipton November sale in 2010. BH

DALMORE HEADS TO LOUISIANA FOR SUPER DERBYBy Jeremy Balan
Up against a trio of older grade I winners in the
TVG Pacific Classic (gr. I) Aug. 20, jockey Kent
Desormeaux called Dalmore's fifth-place run in the 1
1/4-mile Del Mar summer feature a "learning experi-
ence."
Now a familiar set of connections hope that
top-level schooling session will pay dividends in the
future, which begins Sept. 10 in the $400,000 Super
Derby (gr. III) at Louisiana Downs.
The Colonel John colt trained by Keith Deso-
rmeaux and owned by Big Chief Racing looks to
bounce back Saturday against fellow grade III victor
and last-out Ohio Derby winner Mo Tom in the 1 1/8-
mile test.
"California Chrome—I don't know if anybody could
have caught him that day," said Matt Bryan, owner
of Big Chief Racing, of the Pacific Classic. "That being
said, it was an education.
"We needed to get him to settle and he didn't set-
tle great, but he's training good, he looks great, he's
healthy, and he's sound—so we're coming up to the
last few races where you can run against only 3-year-
olds, and the Super Derby is a big race."
Dalmore, who came into the Pacific Classic fol-
lowing a score in the Affirmed Stakes (gr. III) at Santa
Anita Park in July, is who Bryan hopes is the horse of
the future for Big Chief Racing. Along with dual grade
I winner Exaggerator and retired graded stakes-
placed Swipe, the $47,000 yearling buy at Keeneland
September in 2014 has completed a dream crop of
3-year-old males for Bryan and his partners.
"Our goal is to make him a good older horse," Bry-
an said of Dalmore. "When Keith bought Exaggerator,
Dalmore, and Swipe, he loved all three and he put
some of his own money in on Dalmore, so you know
how he feels about him.
"You dream that they would be this good, but no
way did we ever think they'd be as good as they are.
That's one heck of a crop. Our total investment was
$152,000 for those three. That's as good as it gets."
GMB Racing's Mo Tom looms the likely favorite
in the field of seven colts following his three-length
victory in the Ohio Derby June 25 for trainer Tom
Amoss, but Keene Thoroughbreds' Texas Chrome
has the advantage of experience over the Louisiana
Downs surface.
The Texas-bred son of Grasshopper, trained by J.
R. Caldwell, bested grade III winner Sharp Azteca by a
half-length Aug. 6 in the Super Derby Prelude Stakes.
Texas Chrome has hit the board in all but one start
in his 11-race career, which
includes five stakes wins
at four different racetracks
and graded stakes placings
in the Matt Wynn Staktes
(gr. III) at Churchill Downs
June 18 (third) and the Iowa
Derby (gr. III) July 1 at Pairie
Meadows (second).
Mending Fences (third),
Classy Bird (fifth), and Fort
Pulaski (seventh) also return
from the Prelude. The Farm
on 4's homebred Whatev-
erybodywants, a stakes-win-
ning son of Giant Oak who
enters the Super Derby off
a second-place run in the
West Virginia Derby (gr. II)
for trainer Kellyn Gorder,
completes the field. BHBENO

WATCHYOUROWNBOBBER TAKES ON HOOTENANNYBy Frank Angst
Watchyourownbobber will try for a third consecu-
tive stakes win at a third different track when he
faces an expected seven rivals in the $400,000 More
Than Ready Mile Stakes Sept. 10 at Kentucky Downs.
Another successful claim for Ken and Sarah Ram-
sey, Watchyourownbobber won the West Virginia
House of Delegates Speaker's Cup Stakes in August
at Mountaineer Casino, Racetrack & Resort and in
July posted a clear win in the Warrior Veterans Stakes
at Indiana Grand Racing and Casino.
Since being claimed by trainer Mike Maker for
the Ramseys from a 2014 maiden race for $50,000,
Watchyourownbobber has won three stakes and
placed in a grade III test. The 4-year-old Hard Spun
colt has earned a total of $297,865.
To nail down his fourth stakes win, Watchy-
ourownbobber will have to knock off 2014 Breed-
ers' Cup Juvenile Turf (gr. IT) winner Hootenanny,
who enters off a confidence-building score in a
Sept. 3 allowance race at Belterra Park. That race
snapped a 4-race skid for the 4-year-old son of
Quality Road, and trainer Wesley Ward will try the
quick turnaround approach Saturday.
While Hootenanny and Watchyourownbobber will
be making their first Kentucky Downs starts, multiple
grade II winner Dimension returns to the site of his
2015 Kentucky Downs Turf Dash Stakes win in his
lone previous try on the unique course. BH

ARLINGTON-WASHINGTON FUTURITY FIELD SETBy Lenny Shulman
A dozen 2-year-olds are scheduled to go seven fur-
longs on the Arlington International Racecourse
Polytrack Sept. 10 in the $100,000 Arlington-Washing-
ton Futurity (gr. III).
Carolyn Wilson's Wellabled comes in with an inter-
esting background. The son of Shackleford broke his
maiden at Arlington by 7 1/2 lengths at five furlongs,
then shipped to Saratoga Race Course, where he ran
well before being pipped on the line in the Skidmore
Stakes on turf. Larry Rivelli trains.
Star Empire will make his first trip to Chicago
after winning his first two starts at Belmont Park and
Presque Isle Downs. The Belmont race on dirt was
more impressive than the synthetic start at Presque
Isle, but the Foxwedge colt clearly has talent under
the supervision of trainer Wesley Ward.
Debut winner Romeo O Romeo ran a fast 5 1/2
furlongs at Arlington and the Ontario-bred by Ma-
cho Uno, out of graded winner Romance Is Diane, is
working well for his first stakes start.
Oso Ready went gate to wire to break his maiden
first time out at Ellis Park and adds more pace to this
speedy lineup. St. Louie Guy has run third, second,
and first at Arlington in his three outings, and won
from just off the pace. Brave Benny is also a debut
Arlington winner but failed to fire in a subsequent
stakes at Prairie Meadows after having trouble leav-
ing the gate. Stand and Cheer has hit the board in
all three of his starts but has been defeated by three
entered in the Arlington-Washington Futurity.
Maxus went a mile to win his initial start in a maid-
en claiming race on the turf. He steps up, shortens
up, and moves to the synthetic. Maidens En Hanse,
Birdsnest Party, Ptolemy, and Seven Forty Seven, all
with one race under their belts, complete the field.
Also on the Saturday card, 2-year-old fillies get a
run in the Arlington-Washington Lassie, the race be-
fore the Futurity, at the same seven furlongs. Debut
maiden special weight winners Royalty Princess, Dia-
dura, and Spirituality head the cast. Royalty Princess
ran a very fast :58.59 for five furlongs on the Arling-
ton turf and should be running early from the rail. BH

BEN'S CAT CHASES LAUREL DASHBy Blood-Horse Staff
During a distinguished 58-race career that began
in 2010, Ben's Cat has 32 victories—26 of them in
stakes—and has earned more than $2.6 million.
Bred, owned, and trained by Hall of Fame horse-
man King Leatherbury, the popular Maryland-bred
has never lost more than three races in a row. The
10-year-old Parker's Storm Cat gelding will look to
continue that streak when he enters the gate in the
$100,000 Laurel Dash as part of the 11-race Turf Fes-
tival program Sept. 10 at Laurel Park.
Ben's Cat is a two-time winner of the Laurel Dash,
in 2011 and 2013. He was second by three-quarters
of a length behind filly Jazzy Idea's track-record per-
formance in 2012 and third by a length in 2014.
"It's right here on our home ground, it's on the
turf, it's $100,000, it's a perfect spot basically since
all we have to do is walk over to the paddock," Leath-
erbury said. "This is the spot to run him, no doubt
about that."
Ben's Cat opened 2016 with back-to-back wins,
an open allowance May 1 at Laurel and his fourth
straight Jim McKay Turf Sprint May 20 at Pimlico Race
Course. He has followed with three consecutive third-
place finishes, all in stakes, most recently Aug. 20
in his attempt to win Laurel's Mister Diz for a North
American record-tying seventh straight year.
"To be honest, the Mister Diz was a big disappoint-
ment," Leatherbury said. "It really was a disappoint-
ment, but this is horse racing. He's a remarkable
horse. To just keep coming back race after race like
he has is remarkable. We're as good as we can be
under the circumstances."
Leatherbury said Ben's Cat emerged from the
Mister Diz with several superficial cuts on his legs,
but the trainer was unsure whether it was a factor in
the race. Ben's Cat was in striking position at the top
of the stretch but was unable to unleash a late run to
catch 43-1 longshot winner John Jones.
Ben's Cat has lost three straight races three times
previously in his career: Dec. 19, 2010-Feb. 21, 2011,
Sept. 1, 2014-Oct. 18, 2014, and Sept. 7, 2015-Nov.
25, 2015. Each time he came back to win.
"He seems to be OK now," Leatherbury said. "You
don't know really how much it mattered in the finish
of the race. You like to give a horse excuses but,
generally, results are the thing. We got beat up a little
bit in that race last time that he ran and it took him
a little bit longer to recover than normal. He worked
(Sept. 6) and went nice, so we're in good shape. We're
going to enter with every intention to run."
A field of 13 is entered, including also-eligibles
John Jones and Weekend Hideaway.
John Jones was a front-running winner of the
Mister Diz in his stakes debut, which was also his first
start since being claimed by trainer Lacey Gaudet for
owner Matthew Schera.
"I did think at the head of the lane that it would
be about time," Gaudet said. "When you see a horse
that's 40-1 in front, you know that they're going to be
coming to get you. They did. They tried to come and
get him and he just kicked back on." BH

ARMED AND ASSAULT'S MATCH RACE OF THE DECADEBy Tom Hall
Match races have long been threads in the fabric
of horse racing in America, as far back as the
heyday of the Antebellum South, when noted sire
Lexington defeated the filly Sallie Waters in three-
mile heats in New Orleans in 1853.
Moving on to 1920, 3-year-old sensation Man
o’ War took the measure of the previous year’s
Triple Crown winner, Sir Barton, in the Kenilworth
Gold Cup.
Then in 1938, deemed the “race of the century,”
Seabiscuit and 1937 Triple Crown hero War Admiral
faced off in the Pimlico Special, an event so much a
part of everyday conversation among all Americans
that it was widely covered by media outlets. The race
caused the wheels of government to grind to a com-
plete halt, as President Franklin Roosevelt stopped
a cabinet meeting to listen to the radio broadcast of
Seabiscuit's victory.
Although it did not rival the spectacle created by
Seabiscuit and War Admiral some nine years earlier,
a match race contested between the top two older
horses of the year held at Belmont Park Sept. 27,
1947, could be referred to as the “match race of the
decade.”
From one gate departed King Ranch’s 1946 Tri-
ple Crown victor, Horse of the Year, and champion
3-year-old male Assault. From the other, Calumet
Farm’s 6-year-old Armed, the champion older male of
1946.
Armed had been the scourge of the South and
Midwest. A gelded son of Bull Lea, Armful began the
1947 season in Florida, where he went undefeated
in four races and held the Hialeah’s stakes for older
horses (the Widener and the McLennan handicaps)
for ransom. After failing in the Santa Anita Handicap,
he returned to Florida to take the Gulfstream Park
Handicap on his way to dominate added-money
events at Arlington Park and Washington Park.
Robert Kleberg’s Assault was slow to start his 1947
campaign, but when he did the Eastern older horse
handicaps fell like dominoes before him. He took the
Grey Lag, followed by the Dixie, Suburban, Brook-
lyn, and Butler. The son of Bold Venture—Igual only
faltered in the Empire Gold Cup at Belmont, where
he finished behind Stymie and Natchez under equal
weights.
By midsummer, plans were being crafted for a
meeting between the two, a $100,000 winner-take-all
at Washington Park, the richest two-horse race ever
seen. Assault shipped to Chicago to prepare for
the race, but came up sore. The race, named The
Special, was rescheduled under the same con-
ditions for Sept. 27 at Belmont, where the result
failed the hyped anticipation.
Armed took the lead from the gate and kept
the measure of Assault at every call. The best
Assault could muster was a two-length challenge
at the final turn, which Armed thwarted with an
eight-length mastery at the wire.
The easy win was mitigated by the tales of
Assault being footsore after a workout a few days
before the match.
Armed was named 1947 Horse of the Year
and champion older male. He raced until age 9.
Assault retired to stud but returned to race after
he proved to be sterile, and ran until age 7. BH

Yankee Rose finished second to Capitalist in the
ATC Golden Slipper (Aus-I) earlier this year, before
she won the ATC Sires Produce (Aus-I) at the same
distance as the Golden Rose.
The David Vandyke-trained filly is the only runner
proven at the distance, and the only group I winner
in the field. BH
YANKEE ROSE TAKES ON BOYS IN GOLDEN ROSEBy Tara Madgwick
The $1 million ATC Golden Rose for 3-year-olds is
the first group I event in Sydney for the new rac-
ing season and will be run Sept. 10 at Rosehill.
Since the 1,400-meter (about seven furlongs) race
was elevated to group I status in 2009, it has proven a
passport to a stud career at major commercial farms.
Darley stands four of those past Golden Rose win-
ners in Denman (2009), Epaulette (2012), Hallowed
Crown (2014), and Exosphere (2015).
This year they will send out two top chances in
Astern (Medaglia D'Oro) and Impending (Lonhro).
The former is well established with four wins from
five starts, while the latter shows promise and is
seeking his first stakes win.
Other colts with serious credentials include El Divino
(Snitzel), the half brother to champion racehorse Winx,
and talented up-and-comer Divine Prophet (Choisir).
The colts won't have the race entirely to them-
selves, with star fillies Yankee Rose (All American)
