Sabato 8 aprile 2017. Risultati Ippodromo Snai San Siro Milano Galoppo
Reduce da un infortunio, lo stimato Presley si è ripresentato molto bene nel Premio Porta Romana, prova di chiusura del sabato ippico a San Siro: in testa dal via, il cavallo della scuderia Quafin, con Dario Vargiu in sella per il training di Alduino Botti, è andato via a buona andatura e non si è mai fatto avvicinare dai rivali, vincendo con un vantaggio di 5 lunghezze su Alshalaal che ha vinto la lotta per il secondo posto su Point Blank e Roptuz
Affollata e combattuta la prova riservata ai Gentlemen rider e alle Amazzoni, risoltasi con uno spettacolare arrivo a tre che alla fine ha visto emergere Jak du Lac: bravo Nicola Casati, che del cavallo allenato da Antonio Marcialis è anche il proprietario, a dare al suo portacolori un percorso pulito, costantemente sui primi, e a scattare al momento giusto per controllare l’affondo contemporaneo di Brillante Blu e Cristian Fais all’esterno e di Sempreverde e Fausto Lavatelli all’interno, finiti nell’ordine a mezza lunghezza dal vincitore.
Vittoria a tavolino per Universo Sprite nel Premio Ello: il cavallo allenato dal team Marcialis e montato da Pierantonio Convertino si è presentato bene a centro pista lanciandosi sulle tracce di Blarney Castle, che intanto era passato in vantaggio ai 300 finali, ma l’evidente deviazione verso l’esterno del rivale gli ha fatto perdere l’azione. Blarney Castle ha tagliato per primo il traguardo, ma dopo intervento della giuria è stato retrocesso al secondo posto: per il terzo Kazimier Fan ha rimontato Riflente
Nel Premio Porta Genova Justice Well ha confermato tutte le sue qualità, ben espresse durante l’autunno e la fine del 2016: il cavallo allenato da Luciano Vitabile e montato da Giuseppe Cannarella si è presentato cattivo in retta alle spalle di Uniram e Dylan Dancing, ha dovuto attendere un pò per trovare il varco, poi in 150 metri si è “mangiato” il favorito centrando il quarto successo italiano (su otto uscite). Dylan Dancing ha chiuso al terzo posto, gli altri molto più indietro.
Vincitore di una maiden a Pisa, più recentemente quinto nel Premio Arconte a Roma con un finale interessante, Breathing alla “prima” a San Siro ha fatto il botto: il portacolori della scuderia Effevi, Fabio Branca in sella, ha sfondato in breve al comando e ha allungando in progressione, dilatando il proprio vantaggio mano a mano che i metri passavano. Alla favorita Movees non è rimasto che sprintare per il 2° posto, a 6 lunghezze dal vincitore davanti a Hartswell che, dopo qualche problema di impiego nella fase iniziale, è tornato bene in retta al terzo posto
Sopran Luna è la prima vincitrice della riunione di sabato 8 aprile: in ordine come gran parte degli effettivi della “Il Cavallo In Testa”, la portacolori del signor Leonardo Ciampoli, con Dario Vargiu in sella, ha piegato dopo lotta il favorito Time Sky che aveva provato l’allungo al primo traguardo. Terzo posto per Vale The Billy

High Chaparral’s Rekindling Causes An Upset In the Ballysax
5th at LEP, €60,000 | G3 P W McGrath Memorial Ballysax S. | (10f) | Winner: Rekindling (GB), c, 3 by High Chaparral (Ire) |
By Sean Cronin
With Ballydoyle’s momentum seemingly relentless on the afternoon’s fixture, who else but Joseph O’Brien to step forward and deny a Rosegreen whitewash as he unleashed a live Classic prospect in his own right in Rekindling. Runner-up to Capri (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) over an extended mile at Galway on his racecourse introduction in July, the former David Wachman trainee was successful in a mile maiden at Gowran Park in September which prompted his now-retired handler to try him in a fiercely-contested renewal of the G1 Criterium de Saint-Cloud next time. Last of 13 in that 10-furlong test in late October, the bay put that flop firmly behind him back on home soil as he forged ahead of a proven trio from his father’s base in this often-significant Derby pointer.
Settled in mid-division initially by Wayne Lordan off the honest gallop, he was looking for room towards the inner as Douglas Macarthur was committed in early straight. As that rival’s stablemate Yucatan failed to slingshot past, it was Rekindling who drove up a gap on the rail to grab the lead with a furlong remaining and stay on strongest of the trio. “He ran a little bit disappointingly in France on very soft ground, but he grew a nice bit in the winter so he might have been a bit weak then,” his jockey said. “He won with his ears pricked and has improved nicely.” Joseph O’Brien added, “We were expecting him to run well, as he’d been working nicely at home. He did a good bit of work last week and we thought he’d be placed, but we didn’t think he’d win. He looks like a nice staying horse for this year and at the moment there is no reason why he shouldn’t be considered a Derby horse. We’ll see how he goes in the next trial.”
Rekindling was bought for a bargain sum as a foal, especially considering that he is a full-brother to another Derby trial winner Golden Sword, who followed his exploits in the G3 Chester Vase with a second in the G1 Irish Derby. Sitara, who has also produced the dam of the dual stakes winner and GII Dance Smartly S. runner-up Julie’s Love (GB) (Ad Valorem), is a product of Souk. Descendants of that former listed-placed Luca Cumani trainee include the G2 Lancashire Oaks winner and G1 Yorkshire Oaks runner-up Pongee (GB) (Barathea {Ire}), the G1 English, Irish and Yorkshire Oaks heroine Alexandrova (Ire) (Sadler’s Wells), the G1 Cheveley Park S. winner Magical Romance (Ire) (Barathea {Ire}) and the G1 Epsom Derby third Masterofthehorse (Ire) (Sadler’s Wells). Also linked to the G1 Irish Oaks heroine Chicquita (Ire) (Montjeu {Ire}) and the winner’s talented G3 Dance Design S.-winning stablemate Somehow (Ire) (Fastnet Rock {Aus}), Sitara also has a yearling colt by Australia (GB).

Galileo’s Hydrangea Toughs It Out In the 1000 Trial
3rd at LEP, Gr. Stk, €65,000 | G3 Ballylinch Stud 1000 Guineas Trial S. | (7f) | Winner: Hydrangea (Ire), f, 3 by Galileo (Ire) |
By Sean Cronin
Initial indications are that the Ballydoyle 3-year-olds are more forward than in recent years and Hydrangea and the unexposed Winter provided another one-two for the stable here to match that of the 2000 Trial earlier on the card. Granite-tough when runner-up in the G2 Debutante S. and G1 Moyglare S. over seven furlongs at The Curragh in August and September and in the G1 Fillies’ Mile at Newmarket the following month, the game bay who was last seen finishing at the tail of the 14 runners in the GI Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf was ridden typically forward from the outset by Padraig Beggy and wound up second with the pace furious. Left in front at the top of the straight, she battled hard to ward off Rehana and then stablemate Winter out wider to prevail. “She’s a tough filly and she deserves that,” her rider commented. “I’ve ridden her at home and she saves a bit for herself, then comes alive in her races. That was a proper-run seven-furlong race.” Aidan O’Brien added, “She’s a good filly with good form and she got an excellent ride. They all ran well and will come on.”
Beauty Is Truth, who was successful over five furlongs in the G2 Prix du Gros-Chene, served instant notice that she was to become a broodmare of even greater merit by producing the similarly-speedy Fire Lily who captured the G3 Phoenix Sprint S., G3 Ballyogan S. and G3 Anglesey S. and was runner-up in the G1 Moyglare Stud S. and G1 Prix Marcel Boussac. Remarkably, her second foal was The United States, Galileo’s slow-burner who turned fair form for Ballydoyle into Antipodean riches by winning the G1 Ranvet S. The second dam, the G3 Prix du Bois winner Zelding, is also responsible for Glorious Sight (Ire) (Singspiel {Ire}) who was placed in the G1 Poule d’Essai des Pouliches and G1 Prix de Diane, while the third dam Zelda is a half-sister to the GI Breeders’ Cup Mile hero, champion sprinter and leading sire Last Tycoon (Ire). She herself threw the G2 Prix Robert Papin winner and MG1SP Zipping (Ire) (Zafonic), with other celebrities from this dynasty being the G1 Coronation S. and G1 Prix Jacques le Marois heroine Immortal Verse (Ire) (Pivotal {GB}) and a pair of G1 Poule d’Essai des Pouliches winners in Valentine Waltz (Ire) (Be My Guest) and Tie Black (Ire) (Machiavellian). Unsurprisingly, Beauty Is Truth has become the sole possession of Galileo and she has a 2-year-old colt and yearling filly by the great sire to come.

Galileo’s Orderofthegarter Leads Home a Ballydoyle Guineas Trial One-Two
2nd at LEP, Lst Stk, €47,500 | Listed Leopardstown 2000 Guineas Trial S. | (8f) | Winner: Orderofthegarter (Ire), c, 3 by Galileo (Ire) |
By Sean Cronin
Firing an early cannon across the bows of the opposition to Ballydoyle in 2017, Orderofthegarter dominated this Classic trial much as he had when winning by 11 lengths on his 3-year-old bow over a mile at Naas Mar. 26. Runner-up to two talented stablemates as a juvenile in the subsequent G2 Vintage S. winner War Decree (War Front) and TDN Rising Star Cliffs of Moher (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}), the bay had obviously gleaned much from those encounters over seven furlongs at this track despite the lengthy break between them from June to October. Sent straight to the lead by Seamie Heffernan bidding to exploit race-fitness, he had already applied enough pressure to crack much of his rivals by the home turn and began to open up soon after. Despite the progress of his slow-starting stablemate Taj Mahal, it was all about Orderofthegarter as some Guineas hopes were dashed in behind. “He was impressive at Naas and has improved again,” his rider said. “I never felt I was going to get beaten at any stage.” Aidan O’Brien is pointing at the G1 Irish 2000 Guineas at The Curragh May 27, with the Newmarket Classic on the first Saturday of that month firmly set for Churchill (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}). “He’s a very smart, progressive horse who was always mature and he’s done well,” he said. “He might be an Irish Guineas horse, while Taj Mahal might stay further. He took a long time to come to hand last year and ran very well there.” Kitty Kiernan, who was campaigned by Jim Bolger, beat none other than Lillie Langtry (Ire) (Danehill Dancer {Ire}) on debut eight years ago before finishing runner-up to that rival in the G3 Coolmore Stud Fillies’ Sprint S. She is out of Alstemeria, a full-sister to the G1 Phoenix S. and G1 Gran Criterium-winning sire Spartacus (Ire) and fellow sires Johan Cruyff (GB) and Meteor Shower (Ire) and a half to the dams of the Hong Kong champion stayer Blazing Speed (GB) (Dylan Thomas {Ire}) and Hong Kong Derby hero and G1SP Super Satin (NZ) (Danehill Dancer {Ire}).
