Ippodromo Le Bettole di Varese, 06/11/2019, inizia la stagione… 

Inizia la riunione che ci accompagnerà per l’ inverno. Subito in pista i soggetti di 2 anni in una maiden ben riuscita con nove cavalli al via. Vince Time Leon (paraocchiato) con percorso di testa, davanti a Goccia Bianca che si propone al meglio, cancellando la brutta ultima prestazione fornita a Milano. La figlia di Casamento subisce anche un danneggiamento in partenza, proprio ad opera i Time Leon e forse senza una sgabbiata così difficile il maschio da Outstrip avrebbe avuto vita più dura per la vittoria. Chiude il podio Sopran Chris. Di seguito il video della corsa

Thunder Snow Retired, Stud Plans Pending

 

Thunder Snow | DRC

UAE highweight and dual G1 Dubai World Cup hero Thunder Snow (Ire) (Helmet {Aus}-Eastern Joy {GB}, by Dubai Destination) has been retired, trainer Saeed Bin Suroor announced on Tuesday. Bred by Darley in Ireland, the Godolphin colourbearer was last seen running third to GI Breeders’ Cup Sprint hero Mitole (Eskendereya) in the GI Metropolitan H. in June. Stud plans are pending.

“Thunder Snow created history by winning the Dubai World Cup twice and provided us with two brilliant results in France, capturing the Criterium International and the Prix Jean Prat,” said bin Suroor. “He ran great races on dirt and turf at some of the world’s top meetings and was a superstar for us.

“He was a class horse, who was very professional and easy to train. He was extremely tough and always tried his hardest in everything he did. He was one of the best horses to ever race for Godolphin and it was a privilege to train him.

“We will all miss him at Godolphin Stables but he retires at the top and we can look forward to seeing his progeny. I am sure that he will become a top stallion over the coming years.”

A winner of the G1 Criterium International at Saint-Cloud as a juvenile, the bay took both the G3 UAE 2000 Guineas and G2 UAE Derby in 2017, and participated in the GI Kentucky Derby that May, but did not finish due to bucking soon after the start. Wheeled back in the G1 Irish 2000 Guineas later that month, he ran second to Churchill (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}), and was third in the G1 St. James’s Palace S. a month later. Back on top in Chantilly’s G1 Prix Jean Prat, he ran with credit to take third in the G1 Prix Jacques Le Marois.

In 2018, he took his first Dubai World Cup, as well as the G2 Al Maktoum Challenge Round 2 and was also runner-up in the G1 Al Maktoum Challenge Round 3, the GI Jockey Club Gold Cup and third in the GI Breeders’ Cup Classic. Brought back as a 5-year-old, Thunder Snow was once again second in the G1 Al Maktoum Challeneg Round 3, but gutted out a nose victory over Gronkowski (Lonhro {Aus}) to take his second Dubai World Cup this March, the first horse to repeat in the race. A fever knocked him out of an intended start in the GI Whitney H. this summer and he was removed from Breeders’ Cup consideration earlier this fall. He retires with a mark of 24-8-7-4 and earnings of $16,511,476.

Thunder Snow is a half-brother to MGSW & MG1SP Ihtimal (Ire) (Shamardal), SW & MG1SP Always Smile (Ire) (Cape Cross {Ire}), GSW First Victory (Ire) (Teofilo {Ire}), and SW & MGSP Winter Lightning (Ire) (Shamardal). His second dam, Red Slippers (Nureyev), is also responsible for G1 Prix de Diane heroine West Wind (GB) (Machiavellian) and SW Redbridge (Alleged). European highweight Balanchine (Storm Bird) is a half-sister to Red Slippers.

Commenting on the publication of the December National Hunt Sale catalogue, Goffs Group Chief Executive Henry Beeby said:

“This catalogue is a proper page turner.  As the fastest growing National Hunt Sale in recent times, it has been very rewarding to see more and more vendors choosing to send their best foals and breeding stock to Goffs December Sale. 

The key to the success of this sale is an emphasis on quality over quantity that provides buyers – be they pinhookers or end users – with a consistently high standard from start to finish in a convenient two-day format.  We have just managed to keep the catalogue to a two-day sale having received a record number of applications.    

I would like to thank all of the vendors who have supported the sale and allowed us to compile what we believe is the strongest catalogue to date for the December NH Sale.  It has been a wonderful year for Goffs National Hunt, both on the track and at the Land Rover and Punchestown Sales, and we hope to finish the year with a flourish in December”.

Coolmore Releases Fees for Calyx, Magna Grecia and Ten Sovereigns

 

Magna Grecia | Coolmore

The fees for G2 Coventry S. victor Calyx (GB) (Kingman {GB}–Helleborine {GB}, by Obseratory), 2019 G1 2000 Guineas hero Magna Grecia (Ire) (Invincible Spirit {Ire}–Cabaret {Ire}, by Galileo {Ire}), and G1 Middle Park S. and G1 July Cup winner Ten Sovereigns (Ire) (No Nay Never–Seeking Solace {GB}, by Exceed And Excel {Aus}), were set at €22,500, €22,500 and €25,000, respectively, Coolmore Stud announced on Monday.

The rest of the Coolmore roster’s fees were also released, with multiple champion sire Galileo (Ire) once again listed as private, while champion first-season sire No Nay Never, a very narrow second to Kingman (GB) on the second-crop sire list, sees his fee boosted up to €150,000. Proven reverse-shuttler Fastnet Rock (Aus) is at €60,000, while rising young sire Camelot (GB) and MG1SW Caravaggio are both at €40,000.

“We are delighted to welcome three very exciting new horses for the coming season,” said Coolmore Ireland’s Director of Sales David O’Loughlin. “They’re all high-class racehorses, all by proper sires and all at affordable fees. Calyx is the fastest son of Kingman, Magna Grecia is the only British Classic winner by Kingman’s sire Invincible Spirit and Ten Sovereigns is the best son of our own young sire sensation No Nay Never. On the racecourse, Calyx defeated Advertise (GB) (Showcasing {GB}) in the Coventry, Magna Grecia bettered Phoenix of Spain (Ire) (Lope de Vega {Ire}) in the G1 Vertem Futurity at two and King of Change (GB) (Farhh {GB}) in the 2000 Guineas at three while Ten Sovereigns won the Middle Park at two and the July Cup at three defeating Advertise, both in very fast times. They’re three very good-looking horses too, so I think they’ll prove extremely popular.”
