KODIAC COLT LEADSSTRONG SESSION AT TATTS

By Emma Berry

The significant spending of various branches of the Maktoum

family has continued to swell the coffers of Tattersalls' October

Sale and the various agents and trainers deployed by the sheikhs

again dominated the higher level of trade throughout Tuesday's

second Book 2 session.

Top of the pops was the sole yearling in the catalogue from

Micheal Magill's Bellewstown Stud (lot 977), a half-brother to

GI Breeders' Cup Juvenile winner Vale Of York (Ire) (Invincible

Spirit {Ire}) by the perennially popular Kodiac (Ire). John

Ferguson's reserve proved to be deeper than that of trainer

Joseph Murphy, who pushed him all the way to the clear top

price for Book 2 so far of 380,000gns.

For Magill, who bred the colt and keeps less than a handful of

mares at his Navan farm, topping the October Sale was nothing

new.

"It's actually the second time we've been on top here," he

confessed. "Back in the '80s we sold an Alzao colt to Henry Cecil

and he was one of the first to pass the six-figure mark. This colt

is without doubt the best we've had on the farm and I hope he

will become the third Group 1 winner we've sold to Godolphin

as we also sold them Vale Of York and Classic Cliche, who was a

pinhook." Cont. p2

FULL FIELD DRAWN FOR CAULFIELD CUP There is strong European interest in Saturday=s G1 BMW

Caulfield Cup with three confirmed starters including

Godolphin=s Scottish (Ire) (Teofilo {Ire}), Sir Isaac Newton (GB)

(Galileo {Ire}) from Ballydoyle and Articus (Fr) (Areion {Ger}),

trained in Germany by Andreas Wohler. Charlie Appleby thinks

he has the right horse for the A$3-million race and with Scottish

having drawn gate seven, Appleby is more than hopeful. AI'm

delighted with barrier seven," said Appleby. "It gives Kerrin

[McEvoy] plenty of options. If we can get a nice clear run into

the race we are hopeful of being very competitive." The German

challenger Articus, drawn in stall eleven, won a Group 3 in

Hannover in July and has since been purchased by Australian

Bloodstock, whose Jamie Lovett commented, "I would suggest

he would position up forward of midfield. It will depend on

where the speed comes from. A few of those lightweights will

probably roll forward from out wide.@ Cont. p9

Tattersalls October cont.

Magill bought the session-topper's 18-year-old dam Red Vale

(Ire) (Halling) as a foal from Shadwell for Ir,15,000 and feels this

may be her last offspring as she has no foal this year and is not

currently in foal.

With almost 29 million gns spent collectively on yearlings last

week, Sheikhs Mohammed and Hamdan, their cousin Sheikh

Mohammed Obaid, and various Rabbah associates accounted

for almost a third of the Book 1 turnover

and their contribution to Book 2 will also

be sizeable by the close of play

Wednesday. By the end of Tuesday's

session, Shadwell had bought 27

yearlings, Godolphin seven and Rabbah

20.

Again the smaller number of horses

catalogued for Book 2 led to a shortfall in

aggregate, the 29 fewer sold than in the

corresponding session of 2015 returning a

total of 13,241,000gns (-14%). However,

the median was unchanged at 50,000gns and the average fell by

just 1% at 66,874gns. The clearance rate rose by a point to 83%

for 198 horses sold from 238 offered.

Following a first-day outlay slightly in excess of 2 million gns for

18 yearlings, the Shadwell team's enthusiasm for October

yearlings showed no signs of abating during the second session

of Book 2 with horses bought on the day being headed by

Kilminfoyle House Stud's son of Kyllachy (GB) (lot 912) at

270,000gns.

A half-brother to the listed-winning sprinter Aetna (GB)

(Indesatchel {Ire}), the February-born colt was bred by Terry

Holdcroft's Bearstone Stud, which sold him last December to

leading pinhooker Michael Fitzpatrick for

35,000gns. The buzz had obviously filtered

around the sales ground as, when the colt

entered the ring, the gangway suddenly

filled with agents and pinhookers, with the

final say being settled between Angus Gold

and Ross Doyle.

"Everyone sees it differently, but I

thought he was the single most athletic

individual I've seen this week," said Gold,

who offered that the son of Listed Hilary

Needler Trophy winner On The Brink (GB)

(Mind Games {GB}) is likely to be trained by Owen Burrows. "The

mare has done well with some not-so-fashionable stallions and

we're just trying to buy horses who will win races." Cont. p3

Tattersalls October cont.

The colt was the star performer on a good day for Kilminfoyle

House Stud, which has sold four Book 2 yearlings for an average

price of 151,250gns.

Kyllachy was very much in vogue on Tuesday with a

full-brother to the durable and talented mud-lover Penitent

(GB) (lot 931) being another colt added to Gold's list at

260,000gns after the Shadwell agent saw off a determined

Roger Varian. Cheveley Park Stud's dual scorer Pious (GB)

(Bishop Of Cashel {GB}) has been a dependable matron,

producing 10 winners from her 11 runners, including Pentitent's

full-brother Supplicant, winner of the G2 Mill Reef S.

Breaking a Maktoum-related stranglehold towards the top of

the table was lot 1024, a Sea The Stars colt out of a winning

Peintre Celebre half-sister to leading French sire Le Havre (Ire)

(Noverre). The Ling Tsui-bred May foal consigned through

Mount Coote Stud found favour with Richard Brown of

Blandford Bloodstock, who didn't name his client but stated

that the colt would be trained in Newmarket by William Haggas.

He said, "Sea The Stars' record speaks for itself and this is a

smashing colt, though he is still quite immature due to his

foaling date. He still has some developing to do over the next

six months."

Holy Roman Emperor has built a solid reputation in Hong

Kong, thanks largely to his four-time Group 1-winning son

Designs On Rome (Ire), and another of his colts was bought with

Hong Kong as his future target by Alastair Donald for

250,000gns. The agent claimed lot 969 from the Newsells Park

draft on behalf of an unnamed Hong Kong-based client and said

that he would initially be trained in Lambourn by Charlie Hills.

"We've had a bit of luck with Holy Roman Emperor and this is

the nicest I've seen--he was our pick of the expensive horses,"

said Donald of the second foal of Raving Monsun (GB) (Monsun

{Ger}).

Immediately preceding the Holy Roman Emperor colt was a son

of the late Azamour (lot 968), who was one of 11 Book 2

purchases by Roger Varian at 230,000gns. That return

represented a decent result for James Stewart, who bred the

half-brother to G3 Geoffrey Freer S. winner Agent Murphy (GB)

(Cape Cross {Ire}) at his Wellsummers Stud in Marlborough.

Further Group winners to have emerged from the family for

Stewart are Hatta Fort (GB) (Cape Cross {Ire}), winner of the G2

Superlative S., and his half-sister Blue Bayou (GB) (Bahamian

Bounty {GB}), who also recorded her major victory at Newmarket

in the G3 Sweet Solera S.

The leading filly of the day was a classy-looking daughter of

Fastnet Rock (Aus) (lot 830) out of a Montjeu (Ire) half-sister to

G1 Poule d'Essai des Poulains and GI Keeneland Turf Mile S.

winner Landseer (GB) (Danehill). Offered by the Swinburn

family's Genesis Green Stud, she was bought by Amanda

Skiffington in partnership with Paul Shanahan and M.V. Magnier

for 240,000gns.

Consignor Michael Swinburn said of the half-brother to treble

winner Viscount Barfield (GB) (Raven's Pass), who was bred by

his brother Walter, "She's been a queen from day one. The

whole family is so good looking. Walter bought her granddam

Sabria and we decided on a Fastnet Rock cover because he is a

son of Danehill, he gets as many good fillies as colts, and the

cross of Danehill over Sadler's Wells has been so successful."

One of three yearlings by the subfertile Reckless Abandon

(Exchange Rate) in Book 2 hit the leader board when Rabbah

Bloodstock stepped up its spending to go to 200,000gns for lot

851, Pier House Stud's colt out of the Danetime (Ire) mare May

Day Queen (Ire). A half-brother to Listed Dragon S. runner-up

Mukhmal (Ire) (Bahamian Bounty {GB}), the colt's family received

a further boost recently with Listed winner Asidious Alexander

(Ire) (Windsor Knot {Ire})--a half-sister to May day Queen--twice

being placed in Group 3 company.

The early success for first-crop yearlings of Camelot (Ire),

Society Rock (Ire) and Intello (GB) has been chronicled in these

pages and it's worth keeping an eye on the progress of Cheveley

Park Stud's top sprinter Lethal Force (Ire), who has had 12 Book 2

yearlings sell so far for an average of 62,250gns. Among the

buyers are Con Marnane, Roger Varian, Eddie Lynam and Andrew

Balding.

One final session of Book 2 takes place today from 10am, with

Book 3 set to start Thursday.

Click for trainer Henry Candy=s thoughts on Limato and Twilight Son

ahead of this weekend=s QIPCO British Champions Sprint

>ELITE= SPRINTER TO RACE ON When the Sir Mark Prescott trained Marsha (Ire) (Acclamation

{GB}) won the Listed Land O=Burns S. at Ayr in June in facile

fashion she seemed to have all the hallmarks of a Group 1

sprinter. However having been beaten in two subsequent

pattern races she went off a 16-1 shot when tackling Group 1

company for the first time in the Qatar Prix de l=Abbaye at

Chantilly on Arc day. However the Elite Racing Club homebred

rose to the occasion beating

Washington DC (Ire) (Zoffany

{Ire}) and Mecca=s Angel (Ire)

(Dark Angel {Ire}) to ensure a

winter of dreams lies in store

for her many owners. "The

plan is for her to stay in

training next year. She'll be

turned out this week for a

holiday and come back in around the New Year," said Dan

Downie, racing manager for owners Elite Racing. The

programme for a Group 1 sprinter tends to be fairly

straightforward and Downie sees no reason to complicate

matters, though he is keeping an open mind regarding her best

trip. "Obviously we'll have to go for the top sprints. Whether

we'll run her over six furlongs, I don't know. She just looked

very good over five at Chantilly. She has won over six so at this

stage we'll keep our options open. She seems to be settling as

she's getting older and more mature which will help. We'll sit

down with Sir Mark in the New Year to discuss plans."

O=BRIEN JUGGLING AS RECORD IN SIGHT Bobby Frankel set a record of 25 Group/Grade 1 wins in a

season in 2003 and this weekend could see Aidan O=Brien close

in on that record haul. O=Brien trained his 20th top level flat

winner in 2015 when Churchill (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) won the G1

Dubai Dewhurst S. at Newmarket last week and with four Group

1s up for grabs at Ascot on Saturday not to mention the

Caulfield Cup in Australia and the Canadian International at

Woodbine on Sunday, the Ballydoyle trainer could theoretically

even break the record. The biggest problem O=Brien seems to

have is splitting up his runners such is the arsenal at his

disposal. Some races are more straightforward than others.

Sir Isaac Newton (GB) (Galileo {Ire}) and Idaho (Ire) (Galileo

{Ire}) are his only representatives for their Australian and

Canadian challenge on Saturday and Sunday respectively. It=s a

bit more complicated with the fillies. O=Brien has the Galileo

daughters Minding (Ire), Alice Springs (Ire), Found (Ire) and

Seventh Heaven (Ire) all slated for action at Ascot on Saturday.

Maximizing each filly=s chance while also giving the team its best

chance of Group 1 success is a tricky balancing act, made

somewhat easier when they all share the same ownership. "The

lads are going to talk about it, probably on Wednesday, and will

decide what to do then. Found has two options and Minding has

three. It looks like the ground is going to be nice and we'll see

what they decide," reported the trainer. Alice Springs has had a

busy season running eight times so far and O=Brien=s skill as a

trainer is clear when the 3-year-old=s last two runs have been

career bests. "It's possible Alice Springs could go to the Breeders'

Cup, but a lot is going to depend on where Minding is going to

go," added O'Brien. With six runs under belt this season

compared to eight for both Found and Alice Springs, Minding is

relatively fresh and she appears to be the key horse among the

quartet. "Whenever we know what way the lads are going to go

with Minding then the others will slot into different other

places,@ summed up the master of Ballydoyle.Marsha | Scoop Dyga

DEATH OF MARJU Derrinstown Stud has reported the death of one of their

former globally respected stallions, Marju (Ire) (Last Tycoon

{GB}BFlame Of Tara {GB}, by Artaius). He died of natural causes

at 28 years of age. Bred by Ms Pat O=Kelly=s Kilcarn Stud, Marju

had a beautiful pedigree being a three-parts brother to the

brilliant five-time Group 1

winner Salsabil (GB) (Sadler=s

Wells), and he showed

himself to be one of the best

milers of his generation

when winning the G1 St

James=s Palace S. at Ascot in

1991 for trainer John Dunlop

and owner Hamdan Al

Maktoum. Marju was retired to Derrinstown at the end of his

3-year-old season proving an instant success in his new career,

siring the G1 Prix Vermeille and G1 Yorkshire Oaks winner My

Emma (GB), and the G1 Prix de Diane winner Sil Sila (Ire) from

his first crop. While he continued to sire top class horses in

Europe, in particular fillies like Soviet Song (Ire), Lightning Pearl

(Ire) and Bethrah (Ire), it was further afield that he really

stamped his presence. His sons Viva Pataca (GB) and

Indigenous (Ire) were both legends in Hong Kong winning

twelve Group 1 races between them while Chinchon (Ire) and

Marju Snip (NZ) provided Group 1 success in USA and Australia

respectively. In total Marju sired 12 individual Group 1 winners

of 21 Group 1 races during his 19 years at stud, and his

reputation as a broodmare sire is also well established, his

influence in this sphere recently evident with the victory of

Marsha (Acclamation (GB)BMarlinka {Ire}, by Marju {Ire}) in the

G1 Prix de l=Abbaye at Chantilly.

PROGRESSIVE BUDGET FOR IRISH RACING It was budget day in Ireland on Tuesday and it heralded good

news for Irish racing as the Minister For Agriculture Michael

Creed announced a Government grant of almost i64m to the

racing industry in 2017. It represents the largest contribution

made by Government to racing, exceeding the previous peak

figure of i62.6m pledged in 2008. This Government support,

which is i4.8m more than was received in 2016 is very positive

news for Horse Racing Ireland who administer racing=s finances.

As the contribution has steadily grown in recent years HRI=s

focus has been to increase Irish prizemoney while also reducing

the costs associated with being an owner, whilst also supporting

racecourses in their attempt to improve the facilities on offer to

Irish racegoers.

This news should provide further impetus

to these endeavors and ultimately lead to a

more vibrant sport and industry. The budget

is also good news for HRI in a week when it=s

chairman Joe Keeling and other HRI board

members are being called to sit before an

Oireachtas (Special Government) committee

on Thursday over their handling of HRI chief

executive Brian Kavanagh=s contract

extension. Kavanagh has served two seven

year terms as HRI CEO and was granted a

third term of five years despite it being

contra to Government regulations over the employment of CEOs

of semi-state organisations.

Caulfield Cup Draw cont. from p1

Aidan O=Brien=s Sir Isaac Newton (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) ran some

solid races in Group 1 company over the summer and he is

drawn between the other European pair in stall nine. TJ

Comerford is overseeing the Coolmore colt=s preparation in

Australia and is delighted with how he has adjusted to his new

surroundings. "This lad is thriving and he looks magnificent, said

Comerford. "He seems to be doing everything right in his work

and I'm very pleased with him."

Current favourite for the race is the Ciaron Maher trained

Jameka (Aus) (Myboycharlie {Ire}), second to Hartnell (GB)

(Authorized {Ire}) in the G1 Turnbull S. last time and the filly will

jump from barrier thirteen on Saturday. Maher is philosophical

about the draw and told Racing And Sports, "It's not the outside

and it's not the inside. You need to draw a barrier to win the

race but I cannot control that. I can only control what I can and

that's getting the horse fit and she's in good order."

STAR WITNESS COLT TOPS MM DAY ONE A colt by Star Witness (Aus) (Starcraft {NZ}) topped the opening

day of the Magic Millions Gold Coast 2YOs in Training Sale. The

session=s figures failed to match those posted last year; there

was A$5.757 million worth of juveniles traded at an average

price of almost A$50,000. 116 of the 167 lots offered changed

hands giving a clearance rate of 71%. "For obvious reasons we

were nervous coming into this sale," Magic Millions Managing

Director Vin Cox said. "As the results reveal, the diversity of

buyers both internationally and domestically is rewarding for all

concerned. We must congratulate Aquis Farm on selling the top

priced lot today at their first Gold Coast 2YOs in Training Sale.

They have fully invested in the industry and it is great for them

and the Queensland industry."

The above mentioned Aquis Farm sale topper, a chestnut

offered as lot 177, was

purchased by

Constance Cheng for

A$315,000 and is now

destined for Singapore.

Cheng was delighted to

secure her number one

pick of the sale and

revealed the colt was a

birthday present for

her partner. "He's a

strong, well built colt and a brilliant mover," Cheng said. "I'm

delighted to have purchased who I thought was the standout

horse of the sale. He looks an early two-year-old type and has a

great temperament. I'm very happy," Cheng added. Lot 97 was

also in demand and the colt by Sebring (Aus) (More Than Ready),

offered by Washpool Lodge, sold to New Zealand based agent

Paul Beamish for A$200,000. The third highest price of the day

came for Kenmore Lodge's colt by Commands (Aus) (Danehill),

lot 188, who sold to Stephen Gray from Singapore for A$160,000.

The dam Fluffy Duck (NZ) (Tale Of The Cat) has already produced

two stakes winners including the colt=s full-brother Atomic (Aus).

The top priced filly, one of three lots to sell for A$150,000, was

lot 80 by Your Song (Aus) (Fastnet Rock {Aus}). The juvenile

offered by Profits Lodge was sold to the Ridgeport Syndicate and

is likely to join the stables of leading trainer Neville Parnham.

Day Two of the 2016 Magic Millions Gold Coast 2YOs in Training

Sale commences at 12 noon (Qld time) on Wednesday.

Torrealba Q&A cont.

TDN: Between the accomplishments on the racetrack and your

recent success at the sales, I=m sure this has been an exciting

year for you. How have you enjoyed your initial time at Three

Chimneys, and what are your primary goals going forward?

GT: We are committed and passionate about our investment in

Three Chimneys. My wife and I have moved to Kentucky and my

son just started at the Lexington School. Our goal is to focus on

building the stallion

operation to its past glory,

whether it's buying a

stallion prospect off the

track or to breed him and

race him with partners or

ourselves. We are on a

mission to find the next

Seattle Slew. I sold Cara

Rafaela carrying

Bernardini a long time

ago. He is the poster child

for what we are looking to do...We are committed to buy and

breed the best dirt racehorses that we possibly can. We have

built a core group of top quality mares that will give us the best

chance to do that, but we=re also very commercial, and sell our

product at market--that has always been in our plans--and we

proved that in 2015 by selling over $12 million worth of

yearlings and 2-year-olds. We're off to another good start this

year. Cont. p4

TDN HEADLINE NEWS • PAGE 4 OF 9 • THETDN.COM WEDNESDAY • OCTOBER 12, 2016

Will Take Charge | A. Coglianese

Gun Runner | Coady photo

TDN: You mentioned partnerships. You have notably formed

some unique stallion partnerships with Willis Horton on Will

Take Charge and with Dogwood Stables on Palace Malice--is

this a strategy you=re using with younger horses as well as

stallions?

GT: If someone likes one of our yearlings and wants to partner,

we are happy to do it because we believe in our product. Take

this year's Derby for

instance. We placed

with Gun Runner, a

future stallion for us,

whom we own in

partnership with Ron

Winchell and Ben

Leon. We believe in

partnerships and

were able to stay in

for a leg or a half of

several colts that

sold in

September...We are

noticing that we are not alone in the partnership game--it seems

to be a trend. Sharing risk and reward equally with a partner is

very rewarding, when the horse is a real runner. You get to

celebrate together and you limit both parties' downside if it

doesn't work out.

TDN: What do you see in Gun Runner that makes you think he

will be a successful stallion?

GT: Gun Runner is a very typical example. Although we did not

breed him, we bought into him as a yearling and also acquired

the whole family

when we did the

partnership with

Besilu [Stables]. He's

already from the

family of a very

successful stallion

who was deceased

prematurely, Saint

Liam. And of course,

Candy Ride is a

bloodline that is

open to all the A. P. Indy, Mr. Prospector and Northern Dancer

lines. It's a great cross for every good American bloodline there

is. The physical is second to none, the pedigree is great. With his

race record, he might have been a little unlucky, but he was

third in the [GI Kentucky] Derby and the [GI] Travers S. and he

has a couple Grade II wins. We think there is a Grade I in his

future. He's the whole package...He's a horse we want to send

our best mares to.

TDN: Lane's End has made headlines this year buying well-bred

and pricey colts as stallion prospects--has Three Chimneys

been looking at juveniles or yearlings to buy at auction with

the same goal of adding to your current six-stallion roster?

GT: Most definitely, that's what we have been doing since we

started. The stallion market is as competitive as it gets, so you

need to be on every side of it--horses in training that will be

future stallions. We have assembled a quality broodmare band,

and each mare could individually produce a stallion. Everything

we do, at the end of the day, goes toward filling up our stallion

barn with the best quality there can be... Our plan is definitely

stallions, stallions and stallions.

TDN: Stud fees have been on the rise in the last few years. Do

you have any concerns about the market's ability to support

increased production costs?Cont. p5

TDN HEADLINE NEWS • PAGE 5 OF 9 • THETDN.COM WEDNESDAY • OCTOBER 12, 2016

Carina Mia | Sarah K. Andrew

GT: That's a very important concern we have. There is no way

that we're going to be successful if our clients are not happy. We

think about that at our stallion barn every day, and we believe

we have great horses that are good buys....Today at Three

Chimneys we are very price sensitive. While we paid a lot for

Will Take Charge, we are not looking for payback in the first

three or four years. We want to make him the best stallion over

the long haul. We're very proud of our stallions...I think our

customers will start getting rewarded, and this November we'll

see the first foals by Will Take Charge and Strong Mandate at

auction. I think we're in for a good November.

TDN: I know you have placed an emphasis on finding producers

who excel on dirt, and by association, American racetracks.

Can you talk a bit more about how you=re honing in on these

types of broodmares?

GT: We are focusing even more than ever on producing dirt

stallions with our mares, even though I personally do enjoy turf

racing. Therefore, we will be selling a number of top quality turf

fillies and mares to supplement and highlight our November

consignment. It is important to always be in the market trading

and we will be doing that as well.

TDN: About how many broodmares are in the band now and

what percentage of the foal crop will be seen at public

auction?

GT: We have 80-something now, but our target is to cover about

60 mares this year. We

tend to take the majority

of our product to the

market, both to raise

capital and to find

prospective partners on

colts we hope will become

stallions one day.

TDN: One of your in-house broodmare prospects is Carina Mia.

Will she stay in training next year? Are there any Three

Chimneys stallions you think would suit her?

GT: That's what we're hoping for. She's from one of the three

top South American families. I could go on and on giving

examples of South American families that have produced in

America and Europe...I believe very much in this outcross. That's

something that has happened, and will happen.

KEESEP Hip 582, by Tapit, co-bred

by Three Chimneys | Keeneland

Kaleem Shah & Dortmund |Benoit

That's how America was built, at the end of the day. As for

next year, that depends on Bill [Mott]--if he tells us that we can

win a couple more nice races, we would love to keep racing her.

But if she retires, she will be a very interesting addition. It would

be a close call between [sending her to] Will Take Charge and

Palace Malice.

TDN: Looking back at September, did you see any market

trends that surprised you or caused you to change plans at all?

GT: Not really, the first two

days did not feel that strong--

but our better horses were

on the third day and it caught

fire, they all sold well. It's a

very competitive market out

there for a good horse, and at

the middle of the market, it

felt like there was still a lot of

competition.

TDN: What has been the

most rewarding part of your

experience since taking over

a controlling interest at the farm? And the most challenging?

GT: At the end of the day, the people at Three Chimneys are the

secret to this resurgence of the farm. People recognize that a big

effort has been done since we took over, and I truly believe that

it's really teamwork. The people that are with us are the

greatest. It's what I'm most proud of. If you go to September,

and last September, it's really amazing how our product has

been received. And that kind of recognition doesn't come lightly,

because people are putting their money where their mouth is.

They're not only saying we're doing a good job--they're paying

for it. It's rewarding to be associated with a world-class farm

with world-class horses and world-class people. It's racing at the

highest level there is.

As for a challenge, I always thought the stallion market was

competitive. It's actually three times more competitive than I

thought.

TDN: Obviously you have a long-term outlook for your

investment in Three Chimneys. What are you looking forward

to in the coming months?

GT: We have some important strategic changes on the horizon

with the goal of further enhancing our stallion roster. We plan

to sell our Fayette County division and will concentrate our

operations in Woodford County where our stallion operations

are based, and where we have almost 900 acres. This will allow

us to be more efficient, and keep us focused on our goal of

offering both owner/breeders and commercial breeders the

best stallion options in the market. The most exciting thing

ahead is that we will showcase a number of impressive

weanlings by Will Take Charge and Strong Mandate this

November. We are proud of our product and want to show

breeders the level of support that we put in to help make our

stallions a success.

UNUSUAL HEAT PENSIONED Top California sire Unusual Heat (Nureyev--Rossard {Den}, by

Glacial {Den}) has been pensioned from stud duties at the age of

26 and will enjoy retirement at Harris Farm.

AIt is with great emotion that we have to announce the

retirement of Unusual Heat,@ said Harris Auerbach, managing

partner of M. Auerbach LLC. AHe=s been remarkable and even in

his final season at stud in 2016 managed to get 25 of 30 bred

mares in foal. It=s been an amazing run and I=m happy that >Heat=

can now just relax and enjoy the rest of his days just being a

horse.@

A three-time stakes winner and Group 3 runner-up during his

European campaign, Unusual Heat had a brief U.S. campaign in

California in 1996 and retired with a record of 16-6-2-2 and

earnings of $142,605. The $250,000 BARMAR juvenile purchase

is a son of Swedish Horse of the

Year and Danish champion

Rossard, a four-time Group 1

winner in Europe and heroine of

the 1984 GI Flower Bowl H. on

these shores.

Under the ownership of

Madeline Auerbach and Barry

Abrams, Unusual Heat stood the

last six years of his stallion

career at Harris Farms in

Coalinga, C.A. His runners have

amassed $52.4 million on the

racetrack and he has sired 12

graded stakes winners, five of which were Grade I winners, and

a total of 53 stakes winners.

Unusual Heat has been California Leading Sire six times and is

responsible for 15 California champions, included two-time

California Horse of the Year Acclamation, who won the Eclipse

Award for top older horse in 2011 after winning five Grade Is

that year. This year he was represented by speedy ATDN Rising

Star@ Pacific Heat, a three-time stakes winner who most recently

captured Santa Anita=s Evening Jewel S.

Unusual Heat, an Inspiration for Aftercare Efforts... Unusual Heat may have only raced for Madeline Auerbach

three times, but, through his success as a stallion and the

inspiration he has provided her, the 26-year-old stallion has

made a big impact on her life.

It is because of Unusual Heat

that Auerbach has become one of

the biggest proponents for

Thoroughbred aftercare, started

the California Retirement

Management Account (CARMA)

and was a founding director of

the Thoroughbred Aftercare

Alliance (TAA).

AThe truth about Unusual Heat

is not only was he an amazing

stallion and his progeny have

earned an amazing amount of

money, but because of the platform that he afforded me, he

gave me the ability to gather the troops and get to work on

Unusual Heat | unusualheat.com

Thoroughbred aftercare,@ Auerbach said. ABased on him,

because he gave me a voice I otherwise wouldn=t have had and

was such an amazing stallion, you get a lot of notoriety that

comes with that, and I was able to turn it into a lot of aftercare

acitivities.@

The California resident continued, AI started CARMA. I=m a vice

chair of the Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance. I get a lot of

opportunities because of him to speak to people and they pay

attention to me. I guess they think because I was lucky enough

to have him that they should listen to me. It=s been amazing. I

think that he as a racehorse has provided the impetus for

aftercare for a tremendous number of horses. I=m very grateful

for the opporunity and glad I was able to do that.@

Auerbach, who sits on the CARMA board as the Founders Chair

and is still a Vice President of TAA, did not know anything about

aftercare options until after she retired Unusual Heat in the late

1990s.

AI didn=t know about aftercare until after I had [Unusual Heat]

and got a lot of other really good horses,@ Auerbach explained. AI

got down the line to the point where it was time for them to be

done with racing and some of them weren=t suitable for the

breeding shed. I began to look around and find out what was

available to horses after they are done racing and, quite frankly,

I was appalled. There was so no concerted movement. There

was a place here and a place there. There were a lot of people

doing a lot of very good work, but there wasn=t a road map.

There was nothing to help you. If you had a horse that needed

to be retired you were pretty much on your own.@

The English native added, AWe=ve seen a change in the last 10

years of activity and organizations that have grown up to be

responsible and take care of these horses. I=m very proud to be a

part of it. I=m proud of the industry response and I=m pleased

that I was able to be useful in that response.@

Hot Seat sailed home by 13 1/2 lengths in his six-furlong debut

at Parx Sept. 6 and was sent off the prohibitive 1-5 favorite to

repeat the effort on the stretch-out to two turns. He broke

sharply and took the lead into the first turn, but ceded his

position to longshot Late Breaking News (Jump Start) and settled

just off that foe through an opening half in :46 3/5. Hot Seat

reeled in the pacesetter turning for home and strode clear down

the lane under a motionless Paco Lopez to best Late Breaking

News by seven lengths. A $260,000 KEESEP yearling, Hot Seat is

a half to Allwewantforxmas (Songandaprayer, MSP, $211,794);

again, chased the pacesetters down the backstretch and surged

into contention with a powerful rally on the bend. He turned

back Archvillian (Archarcharch) with a furlong to run and drew

clear to score by 1 1/2 lengths. Alex Again, who sold for $15,000

dropped back to trail the field early. She closed stoutly turning

for home, closed relentlessly down the lane to overtake Ize It

(Point Given) in deep stretch and sailed clear to win by three

lengths. Silent Poetry, who was purchased with this foal in utero

for $50,000 at the 2012 Keeneland November sale, produced a

GISW Java=s War Retired to Colebrook Farm:

Charles Fipke homebred Java=s War (War Pass--Java {GB}, by

Rainbow Quest) has been retired and will stand at Colebrook

Farm in Canada for C$3,000.

While under the care of Ken McPeek, Java=s War bested

eventual GI Belmont S. winner Palace Malice (Curlin) by a neck

in the 2013 GI Toyota Blue Grass S. over the then-synthetic

surface at Keeneland. Out of a full-sister to champion grass mare

Fiji (GB), he made his final racetrack appearance in a Woodbine

allowance for trainer Roger Attfield and retires with a record of

19-3-2-1 and earnings of $713,807.

"With his Grade I win on all-weather and a family renowned

for turf, Mr. Fipke felt Canada would be an ideal environment

and plans to support the horse, as well,@ said Sid Fernando, an

advisor to Fipke. AHis form, defeating a future Classic winner in

Palace Malice, was obviously significant, and he's priced to be

accessible to smaller breeders. He'll stand alongside Mr. Fipke's

Queen's Plate winner Not Bourbon, the leading first-crop sire in

Canada two years ago."
