Also Ran: Starboard (GB), Smoking Sun, Gris de Reve (Fr), Rewarded (GB), Anakin Skywalker (Ger), Loi (Ire). Dropping back in trip here after a latest third in the G1 Grand Prix de Paris over 12 furlongs at Longchamp July 14, Saint Baudolino duly swamped his rivals with a smart spell of acceleration and lad home a one-two for his owner and trainer in the process. After his prior pattern-race success in the G3 Prix de Guiche over nine furlongs at Chantilly May 11, the bay was runner-up in the blanket finish to the G1 Prix du Jockey Club over 1 5/16 miles at Chantilly June 3 before his Bastille Day outing. Restrained in fifth early by Maxime Guyon as the British raider Rewarded (GB) (Motivator {GB}) took the field along, he was full of run in early stretch with his jockey confidently poised as another Brit Starboard (GB) (Zamindar) dueled with the long-time leader up front. Swooping on that duo approaching the furlong marker, the homebred rolled clear for an emphatic score from his Prix Jean Prat-winning stable companion G1 Aesop =s Fables. AThis is a nice result, but the form going into the race meant that any other result would have been disappointing, @ Godolphin=s Racing Manager Simon Crisford said. AWe will have to talk to Sheikh Mohammed and Andre Fabre, but he has lots of options. @

After scoring on debut over nine furlongs at Vire May 17, Sarkiyla added a 10-furlong conditions event =Angers June 5 before running third over that trip at Maisons-Laffitte June 27. Opening her black-type account in Chantilly =s Listed Prix de Bagatelle when dropped back to a mile last time July 27, the Aga Khan homebred continued her progression here to add more strength in depth to her owner-breeder =s ranks. Settled in mid-pack early by Christophe Lemaire, the bay was asked to extend inside the final quarter and after grabbing the lead with 150 meters remaining held on from the strong-closing Foreign Tune. AShe is a lovely filly and the only time she has been beaten, the distance was too far for her, @ trainer Alain de Royer-Dupre commented. AHorses with a turn of foot love it here in Deauville and she had a very good run through. We =ll see what comes along for her, maybe the G2 Prix Daniel Wildenstein [at Longchamp Oct. 6] or a race abroad. @
TDN P HEADLINE NEWS • 8/16/12 • PAGE 8 of 9 • thoroughbreddailynews.com How to pick a winner: Horse racing's 'speed gene' test “Spotting the ‘next big thing’ in sport is an expensive business. Millions of dollars and countless hours are spent on talent identification, but it's an unpredictable science. Callum Tennent, CNN After 10 long years, woman reunited with her stolen horse “Nearly 10 years ago, Michelle Pool, 40, of Eureka Springs, Ark., stood staring at a clipped and gaping fence. Her beloved horse, Opie, had been stolen from her father’s pasture in San Antonio, Texas.” Jillian Eugenios, MSNBC China plan for thoroughbreds put on hold “A plan to send thoroughbred horses from Ireland to China as part of a €38m deal, announced during a ministerial trade mission, has been put on hold.” Conor Ryan, Irish Examiner Acclamation Injured, Likely Out of Pacific Classic... Reigning Eclipse Award-winning older male Acclamation (Unusual Heat) will likely not defend his title in the GI TVG Pacific Classic after emerging from a Monday gallop with slight swelling in the area of the left front ankle. AThree days ago we were thrilled with the way he was looking and acting, then he came out of a gallop with a slight filling, @ co-owner E. W. >Bud= Johnston said. AIt might just be a lousy little strain, but it could develop into something serious and it =s probably going to keep us out of the Pacific Classic. We =re only concerned about what =s right for the horse. @ Added trainer Donald Warren, AHe had some heat in a pastern. It could be a minor infection, but we =re having it checked out. We =ll just have to wait and see until we get a report from the vets later [Wednesday] morning or afternoon. @ Acclamation currently rides a seven-race winning streak, including two starts this season, both on turf, in the GI Charles Whittingham Memorial H. June 9 and a successful defense of his title in the GI Eddie Read S. July 21.
Chantal Sutherland, who incurred a four-day suspension for a whip infraction while participating in the Shergar Cup in Britain last weekend, will be allowed to push back the start date from Aug. 26 to Aug. 29, therefore allowing her to partner Game On Dude (Awesome Again) in the Pacific Classic. The four days were set to begin Aug. 25, but Sutherland =s agent Tommy Ball filed a request with the British Horseracing Authority earlier this week, asking permission to defer the start date. Del Mar stewards received a fax Wednesday from the BHA granting the stay.
Unbeaten Atlantic Jewel (Aus) (Fastnet Rock {Aus}) has sustained an injury that will keep her out of action for the next few months. The newly turned 4-year-old came back from a gallop Tuesday showing signs of lameness, and a scan revealed an injury to a lateral branch of super flexor tendon extending to the end region of the pastern. She had been the ante-post favorite for the A$3-million G1 Cox Plate Oct. 27. AWe
will continue to assess the injury and it would be my opinion at this stage that she will be unable to resume full training for eight weeks, @ trainer Mark Kavanagh told racingvictoria.com.au. AIt may be the end of the spring, but it's not the end of the horse. @ The bay filly is perfect in seven career outings, including the 2011 G1 Thousand Guineas and 2012 G1 All-Aged S. Rain Set for the Knavesmire... Last year =s G1 Epsom Oaks heroine Dancing Rain (Ire) (Danehill Dancer {Ire}) is set to make her belated reappearance in Thursday =s G1 Darley Yorkshire Oaks at York, trainer William Haggas announced yesterday. Not seen since finishing unplaced in the G1 Queen Elizabeth II Commemorative Cup at Kyoto in November, the 4-year-old had been forced to miss a scheduled comeback in Ascot =s King George VI & Queen Elizabeth S. July 21. ANo final decision has been made yet, but we =re planning to run Dancing Rain at York,@ Haggas told the Racing Post. AYork is the next natural step and hopefully she will be a fresh filly for the autumn. @ RACETRACK ROUND-UP Acclamation Benoit photo All horses in the TDN are bred in North America, unless otherwise indicated TDN P HEADLINE NEWS • 8/16/12 • PAGE 9 of 9 • thoroughbreddailynews.com Racetrack Roundup cont.

AWe would like to thank the clerk of the course, the stewards of the Turf Club and everyone at Leopardstown for allowing it to happen. @
Johnny Murtagh faces a short spell on the sidelines as a result of the injury he suffered at The Curragh on Sunday. Kicked by his mount Lottie Dod (Ire) (Invincible Spirit {Ire}) before the start of the G1 Phoenix S., he was found to have sustained a hairline fracture to a small bone under his eye, and will be out of action for at least three weeks. AI=ve spoken to Johnny and obviously he won =t be riding at York next week,@ Murtagh
=s agent Eddie Byrne told PA Sport. AThe situation will be reviewed in early September when he sees a specialist again in three weeks = time. Johnny has to wait until the bone under his eye heals. @
Meon Valley Stud =s Colorspin (Fr) (High Top {Ire}--Reprocolor {GB}, by Jimmy Reppin {GB}), dam of Group 1 winners Opera House (GB) (Sadler =s Wells), Kayf Tara (GB) (Sadler =s Wells) and Zee Zee Top (GB) (Zafonic), died of a suspected heart attack Tuesday, according to Racing Post. Herself a half-sister to Bella Colora (GB) (Bellypha {Ire}) and Cezanne (GB) (Ajdal), she proved her ability on the track as well as the breeding shed, winning the 1986 G1 Irish Oaks. The 29-year-old had been retired from duty after producing Justification (GB) (Montjeu {Ire}), subsequently her seventh individual winner from 16 foals, in 2008. AThe
death of Colorspin is a great shame, but I am happy that she had a good retirement, @ Meon Valley Stud=s Mark Weinfeld told the trade daily. AShe leaves an outstanding legacy and we have lots more to look forward to with Zee Zee Top and her daughter Izzi Top. Her son Kayf Tara has established himself as a leading National Hunt sire and Opera House has also been a success at stud. She will be sorely missed. @
NEWS TODAY We have given our two TDN crack handicappers, Brian DiDonato and Steve Sherack, a mythical $1000 bankroll and told them they can bet no more than 5% of that on any given day at Saratoga on a straight win bet. The winner, at the end of the meet, gets $100 in a TVG betting account, along with bragging rights until next July. DiDonato: Wednesday - Curve Ball (7-1) looked like the winner of the third at the top of the lane, but just didn't seem to want to go by and settled for a close third.
No Nukes made a very good physical impression before his maiden special weight unveiling here July 29, but he just never looked comfortable in the slightly muddy going ( video ). He started climbing and spinning his wheels after showing a bit of early interest, and I think he deserves another chance over what will hopefully be a dry surface. The dark bay was a $4,500 FTKOCT yearling RNA, but brought $35,000 after breezing a decent-looking :10 3/5 at Fasig-Tipton Midlantic. It seems likely that there’s more talent there than he showed on debut, and the drop in class can’t hurt--considering No Nukes’s purchase price and these purses, it definitely isn’t a white flag type move. Play: $20 Win. Alternate: Race 3 - $20 Win on #7 Gombey Dancer. Sherack: Wednesday - Much to my liking, She Be Bunny was ridden aggressively by Rosario and enjoyed a clear lead through fractions of :23.50 and :47.80, but had nothing left in the stretch and folded to finish a disappointing seventh. Thursday - Race 11 - Msw, (S), 3yo/up, f/m, 1mT - #7 Jennys Creek (20-1) Taking a swing on a horse that I added to my rapidly growing stable mail watch (149 horses strong at the moment) following her turf bow at the Spa July 28. Completely ignored at 67-1 going 5 1/2 furlongs versus a similar bunch that day, Jennys Creek stumbled at the start and quickly lost valuable positioning over a course playing extremely kind to front runners. She began to make a decent middle move from ninth into a sharp :22 1/5 opening quarter while riding the rails on the turn for home, but couldn’t keep the momentum rolling once angled out for her run. While she failed to gain any ground on the top three--including the very sharp wire-to-wire winner Subtle--she did have 3 1/2 lengths on the fifth-place finisher to her credit. Jennys Creek has every right to move forward with that one under her belt, and the stretch to a mile should help the cause as well. It’s been an unusually quiet season for the very capable Carlos Martin barn, but his horses have been performing pretty decent at this meeting so far (13-1-5-0). Wouldn’t be surprised at all if Jennys Creek steps up and sneaks into the mix at a huge price over a course playing a lot more even now following last weekend’s heavy rain. Play: $14 Win (Turf Only). Alternate: Race 8: $25 Win on #2 Dan and Sheila.

The purpose of the audit, which covered the period Apr. 1, 2008 to Mar. 31, 2012, was to determine whether VLT revenues were Aadequately controlled, accurately reported, used only for their intended purposes, and have improved racetrack attendance and handle. @ While those first three points were found to be in compliance, the audit noted,
Awe are unable to determine whether the VLT revenues used to enhance racetrack purses have aided racetrack attendance and handle. @ The New York Thoroughbred Horsemen =s Association=s President Rick Violette Jr. and New York Thoroughbred Breeders = Executive Director Jeffrey Cannizzo issued a joint statement in response. AState Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli =s recent audit paints a false and misleading picture of Thoroughbred racing in New York, @ the
statement read. AThe fact is, despite a national economy still immersed in a significant downturn and a national trend that saw handle drop 7% last month, business is booming for New York Thoroughbred racing, and to paint any other picture is disingenuous. In 2012, all three of the New York Racing Association meets have seen significant increases in wagering. At Aqueduct, total handle was up 22.6% from the previous year. Belmont's handle increased 13.4% on-track, with total handle up 9.1%. Saratoga's total handle is up 6.5% midway through the meet. That only tells a fraction of the story. After a four-year decline, there was a 39.4% increase in Thoroughbred foals reported in New York through May 2012, and every one of those foals creates jobs. @ The complete audit can be viewed here .
The Aug. 9 fundraiser at Siro =s Trattoria featuring 12- time Major League Baseball All-Star Mariano Rivera raised in excess of six figures to support the Mariano Rivera Foundation. That total was raised by a $500 per- plate event and live auction. Each attendee at the event received a signed baseball and a photograph taken with the future Hall of Famer. AI would like to thank Saratoga Springs for its tremendous support, @ Rivera said. AIn particular, I would like to thank Mayor Scott Johnson, the management of Siro =s and Saratoga Race Course and the residents of this wonderful community for providing such a warm welcome on my first visit to the city. I =m humbled by the support I received, and I=m thrilled that proceeds from the fundraiser will allow me to assist more children in need through the Mariano Rivera Foundation. @ Rivera was joined during the evening by jockey John Velazquez, who was inducted into the National Museum of Racing and Hall of Fame the following day. Rivera spent the remainder of the day at the track and handed out the trophy following the third race on the card, named AThe Spa Welcomes Mo! @ in his honor.
