Siracusa Galoppo. “Caruso- Basile”: team da poker. Dorkhel archivia l’ennesima condizionata. Risultati
Un entusiasmante poker per “Mister” Vincenzo Caruso e il fantino Salvo Basile, i successi di Dorkhel, Playful Dude e France’s Fashion nelle prove più attese sono stati i migliori motivi dell’affollato e interessante convegno di galoppo andato in scena oggi all’Ippodromo del Mediterraneo di Siracusa. Andiamo con ordine.
Dorkhel non si batte e ha conquistato l’ennesima condizionata, abbinata al Premio Farsalo, che ha impegnato i cavalli di 3 anni e oltre sulla veloce distanza dei 1100 metri di pista piccola. In sella Salvo Basile che, ai 200 metri, finali passa al comando e s’invola sul traguardo. Nulla da fare per Geraldine, che si è dovuta accontentare della migliore piazza. Ha completato la terna Royal Alhebayeb.
France’s Fashion ha spiccato invece, tra i 16 cavalli di 3 anni che hanno frequentato il campo partenti del Premio Pentothal, handicap sui 1800 metri di pista sabbia, abbinato alla Tris-Quarte-Quinte. Dopo il buon rientro la figlia di Helmet si è imposta di forza sull’ attesissima Intense Light. I due si sono staccati in lotta e hanno concesso solo il terzo posto a Nanaimo. A chiudere il Quarte’ e il Quintè ci hanno pensato Ile de Cap e Gregorian Silence. Protagonista del TQQ ancora il team Caruso- Basile che, magistralmente ha calato il poker, grazie alle affermazioni di Poet’s Star e Dream Painter. Affidata a Siracusa anche una II Tris, legata al Premio Cassandra, terza competizione per cavalli di 3 anni e oltre sui 1500 metri di pista piccola. Si è esaltato su un fondo ammorbidito dalle piogge il regolarissimo Playful Dude. In regia Antonino Cannella che ha respinto le minacce di Yellow Green e Duc del Rose, sistemati da una foto stretta al secondo e al terzo gradino del podio.

Kingman Half To Workforce a New Rising Star At Wolverhampton
Updated: October 12, 2019 at 3:46 pm
| WLV, Novice, 5300 | British Stallion Studs EBF Novice S. | (9f 104y) | Winner: Emissary (GB), c, 2 by Kingman (GB) |
With the action at Newmarket more than two hours old, an otherwise-ordinary Wolverhampton evening card played host to a colt of real potential in Juddmonte’s newcomer Emissary (GB) (Kingman {GB}). Earning TDN Rising Star status in the British Stallion Studs EBF Novice S. over almost 9 1/2 furlongs on the Tapeta, the homebred half-brother to the operation’s Workforce (GB) (King’s Best) has come along too late for “Future Champions Day” in Suffolk but it may not be considered a total flight of fancy to suggest he has a better than outside chance of fitting into that category in time.
Having been taken out of his intended debut at Newmarket by Hugo Palmer after the rain hit last Saturday’s card, he avoided a race against TDN Rising Star White Moonlight (Medaglia d’Oro) which may have proven too much for him at this fledgling stage. His superlative half-sibling made only one outing at two and also earned the TDN Rising Star monicker when overcoming greenness to win at Goodwood in 2009 and two starts later he was winning the G1 Epsom Derby by seven lengths in record time.
Emissary, who drifted to 4-1 before the off, was settled in seventh early by Jack Mitchell and allowed to build gradually before being bumped along approaching the three-furlong pole. Four-wide on the home turn, the bay had come alive and duly brushed aside the useful yardstick Glenties (Karakontie {Jpn}) 150 yards from the line with an impressive and sustained surge. Galloping out strongly past line after recording a 2 1/4-length success, with nine lengths back to Miraz (Ire) (Kodiac {GB}) in third, he drew praise from his rider. “He was a bit green first time and they went a nice gallop to the first bend which just caught him out a bit,” he explained. “He’s impeccably-bred and we always thought a lot of him. He’s got a bit of class and it was nice to get a feel of him on the track. I think he will get better over further and it was a nice introduction.”
Just under a week after the latest running of the G1 Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe that Workforce made his own in 2010, Emissary promises to provide more ammunition for Khalid Abdullah heading to the 2020 Classics. The unraced dam Soviet Moon (Ire) (Sadler’s Wells) is a full-sister to the 2002 G1 Racing Post Trophy and 2003 G1 St Leger hero Brian Boru (GB) and is closely related to Sea Moon (GB) (Beat Hollow {GB}) who captured the G2 Hardwicke S., G2 Great Voltigeur S. and G2 Herbert Power S. and was runner-up in the GI Breeders’ Cup Turf. Two other of Soviet Moon’s full-siblings were the impressive Listed Park Express S. winner Kitty O’Shea (GB) who threw the G1 Moyglare Stud S. third Kissable (Ire) (Danehill Dancer {Ire}), and the group-placed Kushnarenkovo (GB) who produced the G2 Prix Hocquart runner-up Cape Clear Island (Ire) (Fastnet Rock {Aus}).
The second dam Eva Luna (Alleged), the winner of the 1996 G3 Park Hill S. who also produced the G2 Prix de Royallieu scorer Moon Search (GB) (Rainbow Quest), is a half to the dam of Flute (Seattle Slew) who captured the GI Kentucky Oaks and GI Alabama S. She was later responsible for the GII Goldikova S. winner Filimbi (Mizzen Mast), while the third dam is the G1 Epsom Oaksrunner-up Media Luna (GB) (Star Appeal {Ire}. Emissary’s year-older full-sister Strelka (GB) was Soviet Moon’s first foal since 2009 and her first winner since Workforce and she has yet to produce anything after this promising juvenile.
