Second Stakes Winner for Freshman Sire TEJANO RUN After breaking her maiden at Arlington by 14 1/2 lengths, TEJANO HONEY remains undefeated in winning the All Sold Out S. 104 KNOCKING AT THE DOOR Headlined by an exceptional European contingent, 104 horses have been pre-entered for the eight races of the Breeders’ Cup next Saturday at Belmont Park. Last year’s Horse of the Year Tiznow (Cee’s Tizzy) will go postward in defense of his title and, while he will not face Giant’s Causeway this time, as many as four new European contenders will offer a stiff challenge. Godolphin has pre-entered the duo of Fantastic Light (Rahy) and Sakhee (Bahri) in both the $4 million GI Breeders’ Cup Classic and the $2 million GI Breeders’ Cup Turf, while trainer Aidan O’Brien plans to send the Magnier/Tabor pair of Galileo (Ire) (Sadler’s Wells) and Black Minnaloushe (Storm Cat) to the Classic. With the depth of the overseas entrants, Breeders’ Cup President D.G. Van Clief, Jr. acknowledged that holding the Breeders’ Cup in New York this year had a special sig- nificance. “Obviously, in the aftermath of the tragic attacks of Sept. 11, the Breeders’ Cup takes on a dif- ferent meaning than is normal,” Van Clief remarked. “We have dedicated this year’s Breeders’ Cup to the people of New York in recognition of their courage and sacrifice and hope the event can be a building block in the rehabilitation process. We are proud to play even a small part in that process.” When asked if it had been considered to move the Breeders’ Cup from Belmont, he said, “After the events of Sept. 11, problems crossed everyone’s mind, but the planning process was unimpeded. We are extremely gratified by the determi- nation of owners and trainers travelling long distances [for the races].” Van Clief admitted that overall entries were down from recent years, but said that they were not impacted by the terrorist attacks. “It hasn’t kept any of the good horses away,” he said. “The strength of the core group of horses had more to do with the [fewer] number of entries.” He added, “This year’s Breeders’ Cup pre-entries are deep in talent, as usual. I think it is of particular note, in a year when we are rebranding the event as the World Thoroughbred Cham- pionships, that there is a strong international flavor, with nine entries from England, seven from Ireland and four from France. This is indisputably the strongest group we have ever had from Europe.” FRANKEL HOPES TO BE A FORCE Bobby Frankel is 0-36 to date in Breeders’ Cup races, but the Brooklyn- born trainer may finally put that record to rest as he has entered six live runners in six of the races. Aptitude (A.P. Indy) has finally justified Frankel’s belief and will be among the favorites in the Classic, Distaff standout Flute (Se- attle Slew) has reigned among three-year-old fillies and comes off a solid effort when second in the GI Beldame S., GI King’s Bishop hero Squirtle Squirt (Marquetry) cuts back to six furlongs for the Sprint and You (You and I) earned a starring in the Juvenile Fillies with a big win in the GI Frizette S., while Timboroa (GB) (Salse) and Starine (Fr) (Mendocino) have been supplemented to the Turf and F/M Turf, respectively.

H F R A N C E HBUMPER EURO ENTRY FOR CUP Headed by mul-tiple Group 1 winners Galileo (Ire) (Sadler’s Wells{USA}) and Fantastic Light (USA) (Rahy {USA}), as wellas Arc winner Sakhee (USA) (Bahri {USA}), a strongcontingent of 15 European based horses has beenentered for the Breeders’ Cup meeting at Belmont Parka week from Saturday. Trainer Aidan O’Brien has sevenrunners nominated to the Cup, six of them owned aloneor in partnership by owner Michael Tabor and Mrs.John Magnier. Tabor also sends out American-basedhorses Left Bank (USA) (French Deputy {USA}, Sprint)and 2000 G1 Oaks runner-up Kalypso Katie (Ire) (FairyKing {USA}, Filly/Mare Turf). O’Brien’s two entries inthe Juvenile divisions have connections to the Breeders’Cup and Belmont Park. Undefeated two-year-old coltJohannesburg (USA), a Group 1 winner in three coun-tries, is by Hennessy (USA), second by a neck to Unbri-dled’s Song (USA) in the 1995 Juvenile at BelmontPark, while Sophisticat (USA) (Storm Cat {USA}) is a$3.4 million yearling out of Serena’s Song (USA), theU.S. champion three-year-old filly of 1995 and a four-time Grade I winner at Belmont Park. Mozart (Ire) (USA)(Danehill {USA}) will attempt to become the first Euro-pean sprinter to win the Sprint since Sheikh Albadou(GB) in 1991. The blue silks of Godolphin will be pa-raded on at least seven, and perhaps eight horses, aweek from Saturday. Noverre (USA) (Rahy {USA}), a3/4 brother to 1991 Breeders’ Cup Juvenile winnerArazi (USA), figures as one of the choices in the Breed-ers’ Cup Mile. Five of Godolphin’s eight entries havebeen based in the U.S. this season under the tutelageof trainer Eoin Harty. He saddles two each in the Juve-nile and Juvenile Fillies, the most accomplished ofwhich are GII Sorrento S. winner Tempera (USA) (A.P.Indy {USA}) and GII Norfolk S. hero Essence of Dubai(USA) (Pulpit {USA}).

French Report cont.

HOLDING COURT TO RACE IN SAUDI ARABIA Holding Court (GB) (Hernando {Fr}), winner in 2000of the G1 Prix du Jockey Club (French Derby), has beensold to Saudi Arabian interests to race in that country,Racing Post reports. He is set to leave the barn oftrainer Michael Jarvis later this month and is scheduledto make his first start in the Crown Prince’s Cup inRiyadh Nov. 9. The bay four-year-old has won one timein four starts this season, that victory coming in the G2Grand Prix de Deauville Aug. 26. He was last seenwhen a distant 15th in the G1 Arc de Triomphe atLongchamp Oct. 7.

CHAMPION TAKING SHAPE Newmarket’s Champions Day features were begin-ning to take shape yesterday, with the weather threat-ening to turn against some of the main protagonists.The going at the track was changed to good, good tosoft in places yesterday, with wet weather a possibilitylater this week. That forecast spelled doom to thechances of Grandera (Ire) (Grand Lodge {USA}) liningup for the £400,000 G1 Dubai Champion S. The colt,who was runner-up in the G1 Eclipse S. at SandownJuly 8 and G1 International S. at York Aug. 21, willnow be put away for the season with a view to afour-year-old campaign. Trainer James Fanshawe toldPA Sport yesterday that "he has put up some tremen-dous performances at the highest level this season” andthat “we felt it best to retire him for the year.” Thatrobs the ten-furlong event of another contender afterMedicean (GB), who beat Grandera in the Eclipse S.,was withdrawn earlier in the week. The race may bediminished further by the possibility of No ExcuseNeeded (GB) (Machiavellian {USA}) and the supple-mented Tough Speed (USA) (Miswaki {USA}) beingpulled out of the race if significant rain falls by Satur-day. That would cut the Sir Michael Stoute contingentfrom three to one and Carnival Dancer (GB) (Sadler’sWells {USA}) was reported by Chris Richardson, man-aging director of the colt’s owners Cheveley Park Stud,as having “done very well.” Godolphin will be repre-sented by Best Of The Bests (Ire) (Machiavellian{USA}), who will be ridden by Frankie Dettori andEquerry (USA) (St. Jovite {USA}), who will be part-nered by Jamie Spencer, while Tobougg (Ire) (Barathea{Ire}) will also take his chance. Simon Crisford,Godolphin's racing manager, told PA Sport yesterday,“Frankie will ride Best of the Bests unless it rains veryhard and then he might switch to Equerry--but that’s an‘if’. It’s not a perfect comeback race for Best of theBests, who has been off the track for a long time.Equerry obviously has form in very soft ground and isimproving while Tobougg has been off since theEclipse.”

DUBAI 6-4 FAVOURITE FOR DEWHURST David Loder’s Dubai Destination (USA) (Kingmambo{USA}) was yesterday installed as the 6-4 favouritewith Cashmans to confirm form with Aidan O’Brien’sRock of Gibraltar (Ire) (Danehill {USA}) in Saturday’s G1Darley Dewhurst S. at Newmarket. Dubai Destinationbeat “the Rock” by a length in the G2 Champagne S. atDoncaster Sept. 14. The latter, who has since won theG1 Grand Criterium at Longchamp Oct. 7 in impressivefashion, was rated a 7-4 chance by the Cork firm yes-terday. Aidan O’Brien told PA Sport yesterday, “Rock ofGibraltar has taken his last race very well and the planis to run. When he won the Gimcrack he was able tobowl along with him but after we ran at Doncaster,Michael (Kinane) said that he didn’t think that was theway to ride him at seven furlongs. As for whether wecan beat Dubai Destination, I’m never confident, I’malways hopeful--I’m looking forward to a big run.”

–The TDN staff

GODOLPHIN GOING FOR GLORY Godolphin will field as many as eightrunners in the Breeders’ Cup, with theheadlining duo of Fantastic Light(Rahy) and Sakhee (Bahri) entered inboth the Classic and the Turf. Also

scheduled to carry the blue silks are Imperial Gesture(Langfuhr) and Tempera (A.P. Indy) in the JuvenileFillies, Essence of Dubai (Pulpit) and Ibn al Haitham(GB) (Zafonic) in the Juvenile and Noverre (Rahy) inthe Mile. In addition, Express Tour (Tour d’Or) is thefirst alternate for the over-subscribed Mile. “This isthe best team we’ve ever had,” said Simon Crisford,Godolphin’s racing manager. Fantastic Light has beenpointing for the Classic since handing Galileo (Ire) hisfirst career defeat in the G1 Irish Champion S. Sept.8, but Sakhee entered Breeders’ Cup considerationfollowing his dominating victory in the G1 Prix del’Arc de Triomphe Oct. 7. “He is coming into theBreeders’ Cup very fresh, right on top of his game,”Crisford said of the Arc hero. “The reports we havebeen getting back here in England are that he hasadapted to the conditions at Belmont Park very well.Hopefully, his race in the Arc didn’t take too muchout of him.” Godolphin will wait until final entries aretaken next week to determine their representation.“We will delay a decision on whether he [Sakhee]runs in the Turf or the Classic until next Wednes-day,” Crisford added. “We want to see how he han-dles the dirt surface at Belmont. He really hasn’t hadmuch experience working on a dirt surface. Wewon’t decide until we have to.” Godolphin won the1999 Turf with Daylami, but the closest they havecome in the Classic is Swain’s heartbreaking third toAwesome Again and Silver Charm in the 1998 re-newal. “Obviously, the Classic is the premier dirt raceof the year in North America,” Crisford noted. “Ev-erybody around the world wants to win it. When youhave achieved all you can on the turf, you want tohave a go and do something a little bit different.[Going in the Classic] is a very strong challenge, butif we believe we have the right horse that can makea real go of it, that’s the race we want to go for.”

BIG DAY FOR BALLYDOYLE? Trainer Aidan O’Brien has pre-entered seven runnersfor the Breeders’ Cup. In addition to his Classic duo ofBlack Minnaloushe (Storm Cat) and Galileo (Ire)(Sadlers’ Wells), he has the unbeaten Johannesburg(Hennessy) pointing for the Juvenile, top Europeansprinter Mozart (Ire) (Danehill) for the Sprint, St. Legerhero Milan (GB) (Sadler’s Wells) for the Turf and the$3.4 million yearling Sophisticat (Storm Cat) in theJuvenile Fillies. Bach (Ire) (Caerleon) is the third alter-nate for Mile. The Ballydoyle runners are scheduled toship in early next week. “The plan is to come still,” saidO’Brien. “We’ve been happy with the way the horseshave been working, and that’s the plan. If everythinggoes as planned, we’ll be there. We plan to comeMonday-Tuesday of next week. I’m not sure whatmight happen that could prevent us from coming.”

Bart Cummings struck his first major spring blowtoday with trademark stealth when superbly bredMagical Miss wore down short-priced favorite Ha Ha by a long neck in the G1 Vinery Australia ThousandGuineas at Melbourne's Caulfield track. Jockey JimCassidy sent Ha Ha straight to the front to a two-length lead from her wide alley and she led through-out despite being chased by G1 Blue Diamond S.winner True Jewels (Aus) (Brief Truce). Magical Miss,settled in 10th position in the field, shifted to theoutside once straightened for home and wore down avaliant Ha Ha for the win. The pair were among fourdaughters and four granddaughters of Danehill in thefield. "She was always going to win, she traveledbeautifully and I was pretty confident," said jockeySteve Arnold, who won the race aboard All TimeHigh (Aus) last spring. Cummings has the G2 Wake-ful S. (2000m) at Flemington on Nov. 3 and theG1Crown Oaks (2500m) at the same track five dayslater in mind for Magical Miss, who was aA$550,000 Inglis Easter 2000 purchase for long-timeCummings client, businessman Bill Wyllie. "Her pedi-gree is ideal for the Oaks, being out of a SpectacularBid mare," said Cummings of the filly whose seconddam Barb's Bold is a half-sister to Lyphard and Wash-ington D.C. International heroine Nobiliary.

All horses in the International and American TDN were

BUSINESS UP ON DAY TWO As the better lotsarrived in the ring, business predictably picked up yes-terday at a marathon 12-hour second session of theTattersalls October Yearling Sales at Newmarket. Theday saw 13 six-figure lots and figures that had onlybeen bettered once before--at last year's incrediblerenewal. An easy moving colt by Kahyasi (GB), sire ofKalanisi (Ire), topped the bill when local agent DwayneWoods bought a half-brother to Group 3 winner Nauti-cal Pet (Ire), offered from Yeomanstown Lodge Stud,for 200,000gns. Gill Richardson of Bloodhorse Interna-tional was the underbidder. “He was as nice an individ-ual as I have seen all year at the sales,” said Woods,who was acting for an existing owner in partnershipwith his brother, Newmarket handler Sean Woods. “Hewas a stunning horse and I look at him as a mile-and-a-quarter prospect eventually.” Demi O’Byrne picked upthe day’s second-highest priced lot, going to170,000gns for a colt by Danehill Dancer (Ire). Theyearling was one of several notable pinhooking coupsyesterday, having been bought for Ir£19,000 byO’Byrne’s brother John as a foal. Other pinhookingsuccesses included the transformation of a 45,000gnsKing's Theatre (Ire) foal into a 160,000gns yearling byCo. Kildare agent John Osborne. John Ferguson, actingon behalf of Mollers Racing, was purchaser of the ath-letic half-brother to three winners who will be trainedby Geoff Wragg. American owner Joe Albritton, whowon the G1 Prix Morny with October graduate Bad As IWanna Be (Ire), will be hoping lightning can strike twiceafter Johnny McKeever of McKeever-St Lawrence bid160,000gns on his behalf for a Carrigbeg Stud-soldGrand Lodge colt from a strong German family.Cheveley Park Stud Manager Chris Richardson wasunderbidder for the colt, who will be joining Bad As IWanna Be's trainer Brian Meehan. Agent John Warrenhad a notable success as a vendor when a Grand Lodgecolt he had bred and consigned from Highclere Studwas bought for 140,000gns by colleague CharlieGordon-Watson. “He is going to Michael Jarvis andlooked a very nice athletic individual,” said Gordon-Watson. The sale continues today, beginning at 9:15a.m., with a post-racing session starting 5:15 p.m.
