BOBBY'S KITTEN TO CAMPAIGN IN EUROPEBy Lenny Shulman
Bobby's Kitten is scheduled to enter quarantine
in Florida this week in advance of being sent
to Irish trainer Dermot Weld for a 2016 European
campaign, according to Ken Ramsey, who owns
and bred the 4-year-old Kitten's Joy colt with his
wife, Sarah.
Bobby's Kitten, named after trainer Bobby
Frankel and trained by Chad Brown, won the 2014
Breeders' Cup Turf Sprint (gr. IT) at 6 1/2 furlongs
over Santa Anita's downhill course. This year's Turf
Sprint, in which Bobby's Kitten finished fourth, was
contested over 5 1/2 furlongs at Keeneland.
"If he had won, we'd have retired him to stud,"
Ramsey said. "But he was fourth so we decided
to let him run one more year, and hopefully it will
turn out like Stephanie's Kitten (who won the 2015
Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Turf, gr. IT). There's
just one grade I for turf sprinters in America while
there are a handful of them in England, France,
and Dubai. The plan is to bring him back for the
Breeders' Cup next year at Santa Anita." BH
2014 Breeders' Cup Turf Sprint winner Bobby's Kitten will be sent to Irish trainer Dermot Weld for a 2016 campaign

OAKLAWN PURSES DRIVE STALL APPS WAY UPBy Myra Lewyn
With record-level purses for the eighth straight
year, Oaklawn Park finds itself with a good
problem to have: applications for more than 2,800
stalls—nearly twice what the barn area can accom-
modate—for its 2016 meet, opening Jan. 16.
"What we're most excited about is the quality of
the applications," racing secretary Pat Pope said.
"Currently, we have around 1,500 stalls and, this
year, I only wish we had about twice that many."
Boosted in part by the track's thriving gaming
operation, maiden special weight races will be
worth $68,000—an $8,000 increase from 2015's
first condition book—and open allowance races,
as much as $75,000, up $9,000. Minimum purses
will be $21,000, up $3,000. Overall, average daily
purses are projected at $475,000.
"The quality of our racing as gotten better year
after year as our purses have continued to grow,"
Pope said, "but having American Pharoah win our
two biggest races for 3-year-olds and then the
Triple Crown has really helped create a buzz going
into this meet." BH

KY HISTORICAL RACE HANDLE TOPS $1.2BBy Tom LaMarra
From its launch Sept. 1, 2011, through October
of this year, historical race wagering has gen-
erated "handle" of more than $1.26 billion in
Kentucky, according to Kentucky Horse Racing
Commission statistics.
Over those 50 months, $11.2 million has
been raised for purses, $9.4 million for Ken-
tucky Thoroughbred Development Fund sup-
plements, and about $803,000 for the Kentucky
Breeders' Incentive Fund. Though the ma-
chines—resembling video lottery terminals but
considered pari-mutuel in Kentucky—remain
subject to a legal challenge, they have produced
much-needed racing revenue.
Now in its 51st month of historical race wa-
gering, Kentucky Downs produced $1.12 billion
of the total handle through October, followed
by Ellis Park with $124.9 million. A new facility
operated by Keeneland and Red Mile opened
Sept. 8 and through Oct. 31 had $16.6 million
in wagers, a strong number for a new market
according to officials.
The state receives 1.5%, the regular pari-mu-
tuel tax rate, from historical race wagering. Op-
erators have received about $68.2 million after
the share for purses and breeders' incentives is
deducted. BH

Beeby said Goffs is proactive when it comes to
marketing the sale and catering to buyers in terms of
incentives and a VIP experience in the pleasant sur-
roundings of County Kildare. "Our sales grounds are

like no other currency." BH
FOR GOFFS, INTERNATIONAL INTEREST GROWSBy Tom LaMarra
The five-day Goffs November
foal sale and two-day breed-
ing stock sale come at a time of
increasing globalization of Thor-
oughbred racing and breeding,
which Goffs group chief execu-
tive Henry Beeby believes can
only elevate the company's Irish
auctions.
"Our sales have appeal now
when maybe they didn't in
the past," Beeby said during
a recent trip to Keeneland in
Lexington. "The world is becoming a smaller place,
and I think the whole racing scene is becoming more
international, which is healthy."
In November 2014 Goffs set an Irish record when
a Frankel filly out of dual classic winner Finsceal Beo
sold for €1.8 million ($2,259,720). Overall, the four-
day foal auction registered major gains in gross,

GOFFS FOAL SALE UNDERWAY IN IRELANDBy Clive Webb-Carter
Europe's breeding stock sale season got underway
Nov. 16 with the Goffs November foal sale—the
session-topper was a €39,000 ($42,019) colt by Most
Improved. Last year's sale was highlighted by Fran-
kel's daughter out of Finsceal Beo realizing €1.8
million ($2,259,720), which helped the gross increase
52% to €27.7 million ($34.8 million). With the 10%
rise in the 2015 Irish foal crop to 8,205, Goffs extend-
ed the sale to five days.
The latest racing successes of 2013 sale graduates
include 2015 juvenile group II winners Donjuan Tri-
umphant, Foundation, Ribchester, and Gutaifan.
Sixteen new sires have first-crop weanlings cat-
aloged, including group I winners Dawn Approach,
Declaration of War, Intello, and Maxios. While the

RACING
A NOT SO FINE LINE
Contrary to the wisdom of Spinal
Tap's David St. Hubbins, the line
between stupid and clever is often
quite wide. To play the horses these
days, it seems you have to be either
a genius or an idiot.
Handicappers don't merely
cop to playing "the toughest game
around;" they wear it like a badge
of honor. It's as if racing's infinite
variety of ways to lose—combined
with exorbitant takeout—works
equally well at either trumpeting
your brilliance or excusing your
losses.
Winning horseplayers seem to take tough
beats in stride, trusting that "the breaks" will
even out over time. Losing players tend to see
conspiracies at every turn, and betting into a
pari-mutuel system has a way of making such
delusions seem real.
The Del Mar stewards voted 2-1 against fining
Kent Desormeaux days after his much-criticized
losing ride on 9-5 favorite What a View. The vote
became necessary when Desormeaux's mind or
his conditioning drifted off, allowing a race that
seemed won to be lost by a nose. Even though
Desormeaux has a reputation for occasionally
not finishing races, two stewards gave him a
pass. The split decision enabled losing bettors to
conclude that both the stewards and the jockey
were out to get them.
Lip tattoos and routine oversight have all but
buried the old scam known as "the ringer," but
two weeks ago at Mahoning Valley Race Course
near Youngstown, Ohio, a bizarre variation on
the scheme resulted in the 4-year-old gelding
Leathers Slappin pinch-running for a hopelessly
slow 3-year-old filly named Ruby Queen. In the
official chart "Ruby Queen" won easily at odds of
122-1.
How a twice-victorious gelding made it into
a race for cheap maiden fillies has yet to be
fully explained. While it may have been due to
a series of dumb but honest mistakes, that's no
consolation to the players who backed Jane's
Storm at 20-1. Though no match for the "win-
ner," Jane's Storm did beat all the horses that
actually met the conditions of the race.
Some welcome news for all horseplayers
arrived when the New York State Gaming Com-
mission suspended trainer Roy Sedlacek after
two of his Belmont Park runners tested positive
for the synthetic opioid AH-7921.
Sedlacek reportedly confessed to having
tried to purchase the powerful designer mol-
ecule known as "ITPP" on the Internet, only to
have received instead the eminently detectable
AH-7921. Maybe Sedlacek was no Einstein when
it came to doping horses, but you have to start
somewhere. If racing can't catch his kind, how
will they ever stop the cheaters who know what
they're doing? BH
