The most exciting thing that happened in the world of racing and bloodstock on Friday was a track gallop at a racecourse called Southwell in the UK where Epsom Derby winner City of Troy stepped out in an exhibition race against four stablemate rivals as he prepares for a tilt at the Breeders Cup Classic on November 2.
It was all about City of Troy in the city of York overnight when the glamour three year-old Justify colt posted another exciting victory over a competitive field of 12 in the Juddmonte International Stakes (1m 2 ½ f) on a day when Coolmore owned colts dominated with Los Angeles and The Lion in Winter also winning Group races.
Last year’s Champion European 2YO Colt and this year’s Epsom Derby winner, City of Troy is a horse that carries a lot of hype wherever he goes and the show rolled into Sandown overnight for the Group I Coral Eclipse Stakes (1m2f) and he duly took the prize although a son of Wootton Bassett made him earn it.
Hailed as possibly the greatest colt of all time to emerge from Ballydoyle under the care of Aidan O’Brien following his undefeated juvenile season, City of Troy had his reputation tarnished with an unplaced return in the Group I Newmarket 2000 Guineas, but the Justify colt was back in business at Epsom.
The Launceston Cup is shaping as an important lead-up to the Adelaide Cup. Last year Aurora's Symphony won the Tasmanian feature before being edged out by Rebel Racer in the Cup. This year's Launceston Cup hero Excelleration went one better in Monday's $350,000 Tab Adelaide Cup (3200m) at Morphettville.
The Joe Pride trained So You Think gelding Think About It has charged through the grades this year and looks set to keep his winning run going in Brisbane with a stylish first up victory in the Listed Takeover Target Stakes (1200m) at Gosford on Saturday.
A homebred for Coolmore by champion sire Snitzel, Shinzo picked the perfect race in which to break his maiden, coming with a late rush to win the Group III ATC Pago Pago Stakes (1200m) at Rosehill on Saturday earning a start in next week’s $5million Golden Slipper.
Top class Snitzel colt Best of Bordeaux was second in the Group I ATC Golden Slipper last season and showed he was back to that form at Randwick on Saturday when making the best of heavy 10 conditions to win the Group II ATC Roman Consul Stakes (1200m).
A quinella in the Group II Fujitsu General Silver Slipper Stakes (1100m) at Rosehill for champion stallion Snitzel with the Kacy Fogden-trained Best Of Bordeaux making it two for two when holding the barnstorming finish of Magic, the most expensive yearling sold in Australia last year.
There was plenty of money to suggest that Queenslander Best Of Bordeaux would be hard to beat in Saturday’s Group III Fujitsu General Canonbury Stakes (1100m) at Rosehill, and the son of Snitzel simply ran his rivals ragged.
It is another sensational day of action for the two-year-olds on Saturday with the nominal Golden Sipper favourite Enthaar dominating the betting in the Group III Chairman's Stakes at Caulfield while Rosehill hosts intriguing renewals of the Group III Widden Stakes and Group III Canonbury Stakes.
Group 1 action with the Makybe Diva Stakes at Flemington where the 'favourite for everything in 2020' Russian Camelot will have the red carpet rolled out, with other highlights being the return of Farnan in a fascinating Group II Run to the Rose Stakes at Rosehill, and with stakes action and million-dollar babies galore, just buckle up for another magnificent day of racing aroun
As you would expect from a $1,400,000 yearling King’s Legacy looks the part and the son of Redoute’s Choice has ability match, notching his second Group 1 success in succession in Saturday’s Moet & Chandon Champagne Stakes (1600m) at Randwick.
There will be no quiet winding down and fading away for Redoute’s Choice as the late, great son of Danehill went 1-2 in Saturday’s Group 1 ATC Inglis Sires' Produce Stakes at Randwick.
Fresh from his Magic Millions success where he was the leading first season sire, Coolmore’s Triple Crown hero American Pharoah (USA) was quick to make his mark at Karaka on day one with three yearlings offered and sold highlighted by the colt from Posavina that fetched $575,000.
Waikato bloodstock agent Garry Carvell went home with the horse he wanted on the first day of New Zealand Bloodstock’s National Yearling Sale.
Situated in the lush countryside of the Waikato region, Pencarrow Stud was established by international businessman Sir Peter Vela.
Coolmore’s Golden Slipper winner Pierro is currently the leading sire in the country by earnings and stakes-winners, but has been somewhat flying under the radar at Magic Millions with a filly from Phoenix Park selling on Friday for $550,000.
The first Australian bred yearlings by Triple Crown hero American Pharoah were in hot demand at the Gold Coast on Wednesday during the first session of the Magic Millions Yearling Sale with a colt from Derelique selling for $850,000 to record the single highest result for a first season sire.
With his oldest progeny just two year-olds and already including the stakes-winner Tanker, Coolmore’s exciting young sire Pride of Dubai made his presence felt during Magic Millions on Wednesday with a colt from Archangel selling for $620,000.
