FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH NEXT FOR IMPRESSIVE HIDDEN SCROLLBy Bob Ehalt
For nearly two weeks, one of Thoroughbred rac-ing's most pertinent questions has been "What's
next?"Specifically, what's next for Juddmonte Farms'
homebred Hidden Scroll, the 3-year-old who made an electrifying career debut for trainer Bill Mott at Gulfstream Park on the Jan. 26 Pegasus World Cup Series card, where he won by an impressive 14 lengths.
"He came out of the race well and everybody has been asking what's next for Hidden Scroll, and I tell them to ask Bill," said Garrett O'Rourke, Juddmonte's manager in the U.S. "Then Bill tells them to call me."
Now, with prep season beginning to heat up for the Kentucky Derby Presented by Woodford Reserve (G1), O'Rourke says he and Mott are in agreement on the best path to get the son of Hard Spun to Churchill Downs on the first Saturday in May—and that's to remain in Florida.

(L-R): Bill Mott and Garrett O’Rourke are hoping for another impressive performance from Hidden Scroll at Gulfstream Park
ANNE M. EBERHARDT
BLOODHORSE DAILY PAGE 5 OF 45SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 9, 2019
"Bill has been keeping his options open, but with an inexperienced horse, I believe we are both in agreement that sticking to Gulfstream makes more sense. All things being equal, he's more likely than not to go to the (grade 2 Xpressbet.com) Fountain of Youth Stakes (March 2 at Gulfstream Park)," O'Rourke said. "The other options are to ship out of town or consider an allowance race, but you have to worry (whether) that the allowance race will go and you want to stay on schedule with him. The sensible way to go is to plan for the Fountain of Youth."
Mott voiced the same belief."Everything is an option, and it's an aggressive
move into a major prep like this early in the game. But he's a pretty nice horse, so we might give it a try," the 65-year-old Hall of Fame trainer said. "Why change things when you don't have to? That first race was awfully impressive."
Bred in Kentucky, Hidden Scroll not only romped under the slightest of urging from jockey Joel Rosario—the regular rider of 2-year-old champion Game Winner—he also zipped through the one-turn mile in a brilliant 1:34.82 over a soaked, sloppy racetrack. That time was flattered later in the card when older horses needed 1:36.22 to cover the same distance in the $150,000 Fred W. Hooper Stakes (G3).
"Bill fancied him going into the maiden race, but the expectation that he would win by 14 lengths was never there for any of us," O'Rourke said. "We're not getting carried away with the horse just yet, but, that said, ordinary horses do not win that impressively on any surface."
As exceptional as that time was, O'Rourke said the 3-year-old's inexperience was the overriding concern in discussing plans with Mott and added they want to avoid throwing too much too soon at the promising colt.

BLOODHORSE DAILY PAGE 6 OF 45SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 9, 2019
"He's only run a maiden race, and we don't want to ask too many questions with each step forward. We want to take one step at a time," O'Rourke said. "We're upping him in class, and we don't want to add travel and a new surface to that equation. If it's going to be a really big step, you want it to be on the big day. The two big days for him, if all works out, will be the (March 30) Florida Derby (G1) and the (May 4) Kentucky Derby, though we don't want to get ahead of ourselves."
Looking too far into the future and having inflated expectations is hardly a problem with Mott, who has experienced all of the ups and downs in his illustrious 41-year career.
"It's an exciting time, but we know all of the pitfalls as well," said the man who trained the "unconquerable, invincible, unbeatable" Cigar. "Unfortunately, or fortunately, I've been around long enough to know that it's a long way to Derby Day. We know we have a challenge with a good prospect and hope he can develop and lead us to the right races."
Another concern, lesser this year than in past years, involves the ability of a horse to win the Kentucky Derby without a race at 2.
Triple Crown champion Justify ended the 136-year-old "Curse of Apollo" last year by becoming the first Run for the Roses winner who debuted at 3 since 1882 and the administration of President Chester Alan Arthur. Yet those numbers also mean that from 1883-2018, there was only one Kentucky Derby winner who did not race at 2.
"The record is the record," Mott said.With odds like that stacked against Hidden
Scroll, O'Rourke said he spoke with Bob Baffert, who trained Justify (as well as multiple grade 1 winner Arrogate for Juddmonte), and received a dose of the two-time Triple Crown winner's famous wit.

BLOODHORSE DAILY PAGE 7 OF 45SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 9, 2019
"Bob had a very simple solution for Hidden Scroll not racing at 2. He wants us to send him the horse," O'Rourke said with a hearty laugh. "Realistically, I don't think there are any tips. You don't have to tell Bill Mott much, and you're not going to change your training patterns. You just have to rely on the horse's ability to handle the inexperience, and most of that is between their ears.
"Obviously, Justify was very exceptional in that regard," he added, "but let's face it: We've seen a lot of horses in the past that have tried to do that, and it's usually the mental side of it that is the challenge as opposed to the physical side. You see a lot of horses who are physically ready to run in the Derby but are not ready for everything going on at the Derby, with the pace scenario and running against 20 horses instead of eight or nine. That can throw off an inexperienced horse.
"The best way to stay out of the way, to stay out of trouble, is to be part of the early pace, and that's what Justify had. With that in mind, you like the way Hidden Scroll ran (a half-mile in :44.75 in his maiden) the other day and finished out well. Hopefully, he has that tactical speed you need."
The likelihood of Hidden Scroll running in the Fountain of Youth could turn the 1 1/16-mile stakes into a blockbuster prep. Fasig-Tipton Holy Bull Stakes (G2) winner Harvey Wallbanger and Maximus Mischief, the beaten favorite in that race, are possibilities for the Fountain of Youth, along with Nashua Stakes (G3) winner Vekoma, Champagne
Stakes (G1) runner-up Code of Honor, Hopeful Stakes (G1) runner-up Mucho (who is also trained by Mott), and Bourbon War.
"The Fountain of Youth will be a big barometer for Hidden Scroll," O'Rourke said.

The Fountain of Youth could also provide some insight as to Hidden Scroll's abilities on a dry track, provided Mother Nature cooperates. But having off-track ability can come in handy these days, considering in the past year the Santa Anita Handicap Presented by San Manuel Indian Bingo and Casino (G1), the Kentucky Derby, Preakness Stakes (G1), Whitney Stakes (G1), and Pegasus World Cup Invitational Stakes (G1) have all been contested on wet tracks.
Hidden Scroll's second start promises to be quite revealing if it is contested on a fast track.
"The one thing we can eliminate is any question of how he can handle slop," Mott said. "That's not a bad quality to have."
Mott also said he expects Rosario to ride Hidden Scroll "for at least the next race."
Hidden Scroll debuted in January, but O'Rourke said his first start was expected to come last fall until he suffered a minor injury in his barn.
"He showed his talent early as a 2-year-old, and when he went to Bill's assistant at Churchill Downs, Kenny McCarthy, Kenny saw the talent there as well," O'Rourke said. "Unfortunately, he was spooked in the barn one day and hurt a hind splint bone by kicking an electrical box and had to return to the farm. Otherwise, he would have been ready to race at Keeneland or Churchill Downs. He was quite far along at late summer."
Though Hidden Scroll went off at 8-1 odds in his
debut, his monstrous effort was a bigger surprise than that based on his breeding.
His dam, Sheba Queen, is a daughter of Empire Maker—the winner of the 2003 Belmont Stakes (G1) on a sloppy track—out of the Miswaki mare Etoile Montante.
The unraced homebred mare's first five foals were mostly forgettable. The first, State Visit, a daughter
of Harlan's Holiday, was a maiden winner at Churchill Downs in 2014 as a 3-year-old and earned $50,400. The next to race, Makada, a 2014 full sister to Hidden Scroll, registered her lone win in seven starts in a $25,000 maiden claimer Aug. 7 at Presque Isle Downs. Trade Mission, a daughter of Artie Schiller, had a third at Kempton out of three starts and sold for $2,004 at the 2018 Tattersalls December Mares Sale.
As a result, Sheba Queen was sold at the 2017 Keeneland November Breeding Stock sale to Murat Sancal for $7,500, and that might prove to be a huge bargain if Hidden Scroll becomes a grade 1 winner.
"She was a good-looking mare who didn't perform. Her first few foals were a disappointment, but this one was good-looking," O'Rourke said. "Sometimes you have to keep throwing mud on the wall and hope it will stick. On occasion, you have mares who throw one good one, if you're lucky, and hopefully we're lucky with this one."
What role luck plays in the process should become clear in the next few months, especially now that "What's next?" has been answered for Hidden Scroll. BH

HAGYARD FACES LITIGATION OVER REPOSITORY RADIOGRAPHSBy Frank Angstt @BH_FAngst
A class-action lawsuit has been filed against Hag-yard-Davidson-McGee Associates and four of its
partners alleging that for about a decade they falsified dates on radiographs of horses being offered for sale at Keeneland public auctions, a practice the suit claims negatively impacted the plaintiff.
In the lawsuit filed Feb. 7 in Fayette (Ky.) Circuit Court, Illinois-based owner-trainer Tom Swearingen is named as the plaintiff in the class-action complaint that could add more plaintiffs. The vet partners named in the lawsuit—Michael Hore, Robert Hunt, Dwayne Rodgerson, and Michael Spirito—have all self-reported to the Kentucky Board of Veterinary Examiners that they had modified dates on radiographs submitted to the Keeneland repository, according to the lawsuit.
Mike Casey, an attorney for Hagyard Equine Medical Institute, said it will vigorously fight the litigation.
"Hagyard Equine Medical Institute believes the lawsuit filed Thursday in Fayette Circuit Court regarding several of Hagyard's veterinarians is without merit and will demonstrate it is based on a fundamental misrepresentation of the facts," Casey said. "We will
vigorously address the misrepresentations and claims made in the suit through the proper legal channels."
Keeneland, which is not named as a defendant in the lawsuit, declined comment.
Radiographs offered at sales through a repository provide the benefit of central information, eliminating the need to run numerous radiographs and endoscopic exams of horses during a sale session. Keeneland provides the information for free. Keeneland's repository rules for the September Yearling Sale require submitted radiographs to be taken within 21 days of the date a horse is to be auctioned, while for its mixed sales in November and January, the requirement is within 15 days of when a horse is to be sold.
The lawsuit alleges the practice of modifying dates went back to 2006 and impacted thousands of buyers. It said Hagyard submitted about 50% of the repository radiographs at the Keeneland sales during this time and, of those, up to 10% had the date "intentionally and fraudulently altered." The lawsuit contends that the veterinarians involved deleted or destroyed the original digital radiograph files from the mobile radiograph machines.
The lawsuit points out that, over time, the number of radiographs with altered dates is significant.
"Collectively, the actions of the defendants have resulted in the submission of tens of thousands of
fraudulent radiographs to the repository where buyers like the plaintiff, relying on the alleged integrity of the repository and reasonable belief that the rules were being followed, acted and bid with the confidence Keeneland sought to inspire, as reflected by the substantial prices commanded by a process which was believed 'lower risk' by virtue of the repository," the suit reads. "In fact, beneath the surface, that was clearly not the case, and the repository engendered nothing more than false confidence as a result of the defendants' actions."

ANNE M. EBERHARDT
BLOODHORSE DAILY PAGE 11 OF 45SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 9, 2019
While the vets involved were sanctioned by the Kentucky Board of Veterinary Examiners, that regulatory board in its decision also included the statement, “The board agrees and acknowledges that there is no evidence that any radiograph taken by the respondent (each of the Hagyard vets) did not accurately reflect the condition of the horse.” According to Casey the statement applies to all the claims.
In terms of actual impact on the plaintiff, the lawsuit states Swearingen deserves compensatory and punitive damages because he relied on the authenticity and accuracy of the radiographs in the repository, both in respect to the content displayed and the date on which it was taken, in purchasing 24 horses for a total of $432,600 from January 2007 through September 2016. In fact, the lawsuit states if the plaintiff had been aware that a percentage of radiographs in the repository had altered dates, he would not have participated in the sale in the first place and never would have purchased any of the 24 horses.
Bob Heleringer, a Louisville, Ky., attorney who has taught equine regulatory law at the University of Louisville's Louis D. Brandeis School of Law, suspects the plaintiff ultimately will have to show that the radiographs for horses he purchased were, in fact, incorrectly dated. Beyond that, Heleringer said the court may want to see evidence that a horse with an altered-date radiograph had a change in physical condition between when the radiograph was actually taken and the falsified date.
On Dec. 31, 2017, the Hagyard partners sold their practice for almost $40 million, according to the lawsuit, in a merger with Mixed Animal Veterinary Associates of North America.
The plaintiff seeks both compensatory and punitive damages as applicable. Also named in the lawsuit is accounting firm Dean Dorton Allen Ford.
The filing of the lawsuit was reported Feb. 7 by the Lexington Herald-Leader. BH

KENTUCKY BROODMARE OF THE YEAR LISA DANIELLE DIES AT 25By Eric Mitchellt @BH_EMitchell
Morton and Elaine Fink's pensioned royal blue hen mare Lisa Danielle,
dam of two-time Horse of the Year Wise Dan, was euthanized Feb. 7 at Patchen Wilkes Farm near Lexington because of an irreparable injury she sustained to her left hind leg.
The 25-year-old chestnut daughter of Wolf Power, out of the Secretariat mare Askmysecretary, ruptured a distal sesamoid ligament in her left hind leg.
"With a younger mare, you could probably fuse the joint, but not in an older mare like her," said Barry Ezrine, farm manager of Patchen Wilkes, where Lisa Danielle has been since the Finks bought her as a yearling in 1995. "There was no way we were going to let her suffer."
Bred in Illinois by Triple C Thorobred, Lisa Danielle was sold for $29,000 through the Keeneland September Yearling Sale by Walmac International as agent. She was acquired by agent Cecil Seaman on behalf of the Finks, who sent the filly to Patchen Wilkes. Morton Fink asked Ezrine to recommend someone to break his new filly. The wheels of racing history were set in motion when Ezrine sent him to Charlie and Amy LoPresti.
Charlie LoPresti would later become the trainer of Lisa Danielle's most successful runners: Wise Dan (by Wiseman's Ferry) and multiple grade 1-placed, grade 2 winner Successful Dan (by Successful Appeal). Wise Dan won 19 graded stakes, 11 of them at the grade 1 level on dirt and turf, while racing from 3 to 7. He won Horse of the Year,

champion grass horse, and champion older horse titles in 2012 and then again in 2013 and retired with $7,552,920 in earnings. Successful Dan also raced from 3-7 (but not at 5) and retired with $998,154 in earnings.
In 2013, the Kentucky Thoroughbred Owners and Breeders Association named Lisa Danielle the Kentucky Broodmare of the Year.
Besides her two superstars, Lisa Danielle produced a black-type stakes winner, a graded-placed winner, and four other winners, none of whom earned less than $100,000. Her progeny, all Fink homebreds, earned $9,450,990 collectively as racehorses.
"Her produce record is remarkable … (even) before Wise Dan," Ezrine said. "She was a great producer, and anyone would have wanted one like her."
Ezrine remembered the mare as independent and a bit obstinate.
"When it was time to go out, she was always standing by the door and was the last to come in," Ezrine remembered. "She always would rather be outside than in. If you went out in the middle of the day to get her, you were probably not going to get her.
"We've had some great horses on this farm, like Hollywood Wildcat and Brave Raj. But I am proud to have raised a two-time Horse of the Year and a Broodmare of the Year. It is quite an accomplishment for a small farm," he continued. "We are fortunate, and she meant a lot to Mr. Fink."
Lisa Danielle will be buried at Patchen Wilkes Farm in a horse cemetery near the main house, where Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies Stakes (G1) winner Brave Raj, Patchen Beauty, and others are buried. BH

If Lady Eli could talk, I'm sure she would thank
the Grayson-Jockey Club Research Foundation
for funding multiple research projects on laminitis.
Grayson funds supported cryotherapy
research for combating laminitis.
Cryotherapy likely minimized the devastating
effects laminitis could have had on Lady Eli's feet.
Grayson's efforts certainly had a direct impact in
helping Team Brown save Lady Eli's life, racing career
and legacy. We have a considerable amount more to
learn about the treatment and prevention of laminitis.
Grayson's efforts continue to provide veterinarians
like myself in the field new tools to save more lives.
Thank you Grayson!

GUN IT TOPS TRIPLE CROWN NOMINEES PURCHASED AT AUCTIONBy Ron Mitchellt @BH_RMitchell
The desire to find a classic winner is a major driver of equine sales, as underscored by the 244 Triple
Crown nominees that were purchased at public auc-tion, representing 67% of the 362 early nominees to the three-race series.
The most expensive Triple Crown-nominated 3-year-old is Gun It, a son of Tapit purchased by Mandy Pope's Whisper Hill Farm for $2.6 million out of the Taylor Made Sales Agency consignment to the 2017 Keeneland September Yearling Sale. The second-highest-priced North American yearling of 2017, Gun It is the first foal out of multiple grade 1-placed Miss Besilu and was bred in Kentucky by Three Chimneys Farm and Besilu Stables. The colt's dam is a half sister to 2005 Horse of the Year Saint Liam and graded stakes winner Quiet Giant, the dam of 2017 Horse of the Year Gun Runner.
"We're hoping he'll be another Gun Runner," Pope said after purchasing the colt. "I just really believe in this family. And this is the most I've spent on a colt so … he's got to run!"
"When we went out (to Three Chimneys), we didn't really know what horses we were going to get to sell for them. When we saw this horse, we were like, 'Wow,'" said Mark Taylor of Taylor Made Sales. "We look at thousands of horses every spring, and when he came out, I was like, 'Yeah, that's pretty close to the best one I've seen.'"
With Three Chimneys retaining an interest in Gun It, the colt was sent to Hall of Fame trainer Steve Asmussen and broke his maiden Dec. 22 in his second start at Fair Grounds Race Track & Slots and subsequently finished third in allowance/optional claiming company.
Gun It is one of 27 Triple Crown nominations for Asmussen and one of 19 sophomores sired by Tapit nominated to the series.
The most accomplished sale graduate nominated to the Triple Crown is Game Winner, the 2018 champion 2-year-old male whose $110,000 purchase on behalf of Gary and Mary West at the 2017 Keeneland sale looks like a bargain. Undefeated in four starts and with
earnings of nearly $1.5 million, the Candy Ride colt was bought on the Wests' behalf by agent Ben Glass from the consignment of Lane's End, agent for breeder Summer Wind Equine.
"When I see a horse I love, I just have to try to buy him," Glass noted. "I don't try all the time to look for horses that are perfect. You look at a bunch of things, realizing that horses sometime do run through their problems. You have to go with your gut when you like a horse."
Jaywalk, the 2018 champion juvenile filly who is nominated to the Triple Crown, also graduated from the 2017 Keeneland September Yearling Sale, with trainer John Servis going to $190,000 to purchase the Cross Traffic filly from breeder Gainesway. Trained by Servis for Leonard Green and Cash is King, Jaywalk has compiled a record of 4-1-0 from five starts and earnings of almost $1.4 million.
The least expensive public auction purchase among Triple Crown nominees is stakes winner Sueno, who sold for a paltry $1,500 the first time through the ring when he was bought by Aidan Jennings from breeder Hill 'n' Dale Sales Agency at the 2016 Keeneland November Breeding Stock Sale. Pinhooked by Dromoland Farm to the following year's Keeneland yearling sale, the Atreides colt was bought by Silverton Hill for $61,000.
Trained by Keith Desormeaux, Sueno has won half his four starts, including the Gold Rush Stakes at Golden Gate Fields, and finished second in this year's Sham Stakes (G3) at Santa Anita Park. BH

NYRA ANNOUNCES 48-DAY BELMONT PARK MEET SCHEDULEBy BloodHorse Staff
The New York Racing Association announced the stakes schedule for a 48-day Belmont Park spring/
summer meet Feb. 8, which features 59 total stakes races worth $18.4 million, to commence April 26 and run through July 7.
The meet is highlighted by the three-day Belmont Stakes Racing Festival from June 6-8 that will encompass 18 stakes, including eight grade 1 events, featuring the 151st running of the $1.5 million Belmont Stakes (G1) June 8.
The Belmont Stakes Racing Festival opens with three stakes races June 6, including a pair of grade 3 turf events—the Intercontinental for older fillies and mares and the Wonder Again for 3-year-old fillies. The next day will offer four graded stakes, led by the $600,000 New York Stakes (G2T) for older fillies and mares going 1 1/4 miles on the turf.
Belmont Stakes Day will feature nine graded stakes, including eight grade 1s. The $1.2 million Runhappy Metropolitan (G1), the $700,000 Ogden Phipps (G1), and the $400,000 Jaipur on the turf, and recently
upgraded to grade 1 status, are "Win and You're In" qualifiers for the Breeders' Cup in November at Santa Anita Park.
Rounding out the top-level races is the $1 million Woodford Reserve Manhattan (G1T) for 4-year-olds and up on the turf, the $700,000 Acorn (G1) for 3-year-old fillies, the $700,000 Longines Just a Game (G1T) for fillies and mares 4-years-old and up on the turf, and the upgraded $400,000 Woody Stephens (G1) for 3-year-old sprinters. The packed card will lead up to the Belmont Stakes, the final leg of racing's famed Triple Crown, contested at 1 1/2 miles in the "Test of the Champion."
The Man o' War Racing Festival set for May 11 boasts five stakes, including four graded events, led by the $700,000 Man o' War (G1T) at 1 3/8 miles on the turf for 4-year-olds and upward.
The action-packed card is also highlighted by the $300,000 Peter Pan (G3), a local prep for the Belmont Stakes for sophomores at 1 1/8 miles. Rounding out the day's stakes are a pair of grade 3 contests for fillies and mares with the $200,000 Beaugay at 1 1/16 miles on the grass and the $200,000 Vagrancy for sprinters, and the $150,000 Runhappy Stakes for sprinters 4-years-old and up.

The spotlight will shine on New York-breds May 27, as part of Big Apple Showcase Day. The lucrative Memorial Day card features six stakes worth $900,000 for horses bred in the Empire State, led by the $200,000 Commentator at a mile for 3-year-olds and up and the $200,000 Critical Eye at the same distance for fillies and mares, 3-years-old and up. Also featured on the Big Apple Showcase Day card are a quartet of $125,000 stakes for New York-breds: the Kingston, Mount Vernon, Mike Lee, and Bouwerie.
In 2019, the Stars & Stripes Racing Festival will be contested over three days (July 4-6). Five graded stakes will be offered on the Belmont spring/summer meet's penultimate day.
The packed card will include the $1 million Belmont Derby Invitational (G1T) for 3-year-olds going 1 1/4 miles on the turf and the $750,000 Belmont Oaks Invitational (G1T) over the same surface and distance, as well as the $250,000 Dwyer (G3) for 3-year-olds.
The docket will also include the $700,000 Suburban (G2) for 4-year-olds and up at 1 1/4 miles and the renamed $300,000 John A. Nerud, (G2), formerly the Belmont Sprint Championship, a "Win and You're In" qualifier for the Breeders' Cup Sprint (G1).
Inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1972, Nerud, who trained such legends of the sport as Dr. Fager and Gallant Man, was a founding member of the Breeders' Cup, serving as chairman of the Breeders' Cup marketing committee in its early years. The longtime trainer, president, and general manager for William L. McKnight's Tartan Farms passed away in 2015 at the age of 102.
Opening Day will kick off the meet's stakes action with the $100,000 Affirmed Success for New York-breds. The graded stakes action will commence May 4 with the $200,000 Sheepshead Bay (G2T), the $200,000 Westchester (G3), and the $150,000 Fort Marcy (G3T).
Closing Day will bring the curtain down on the meet with the $100,000 State Dinner before the racing action moves to Saratoga Race Course for the July 11 opening card. BH

BELLAFINA DOMINANT FAVORITE IN LAS VIRGENESBy Jeremy Balant @BH_JBalan
If you put aside all the obligatory clichés—anything can happen in a horse race,
you still have to run the race, etc.—Kaleem Shah's Bellafina is supposed to win the $200,000 Las Virgenes Stakes (G2) Feb. 9 at Santa Anita Park.
She exits the Jan. 6 Santa Ynez Stakes (G2) at Santa Anita, and it would be hard to imagine a better 3-year-old debut for the Simon Callaghan-trained Quality Road filly, who humbled a short field when she cruised to victory by 8 1/2 lengths.
Bellafina will stretch out an extra furlong, from seven furlongs to a two-turn mile, but will be facing a similar group in the Las Virgenes, including second-place Santa Ynez finisher Mother Mother and third-placed Tomlin.
And although any horseman will be happy to tell you they'd rather be 1-5 than 5-1, odds-on favoritism does bring added pressure.
"She's a highly respected filly, both by myself and the public, so there's obviously pressure for her to perform," Callaghan said of the two-time grade 1 winner, who has never gone off at a price higher than 3-1 and has been odds-on in half of her six starts. "But we go into the race believing she's doing very well, and we're hopeful for a good performance."
Callaghan also has expressed confidence in her ability to stretch out because of her past form—she won the 1 1/16-mile Chandelier Stakes (G1) by 6 1/2 lengths—as well as her sire's propensity to produce two-turn standouts (see: City of Light, Abel Tasman, Spring Quality, Salty, and Paved).
While Mother Mother has yet to find the winner's circle for a two-turn race (her win in the Rags to Riches Stakes at Churchill Downs was a one-turn
mile), the two Las Virgenes entrants who have yet to face Bellafina have run their best races around two turns.
Enaya Racing's Enaya Alrabb nearly spoiled trainer Bob Baffert's party at Los Alamitos Race Course Dec. 8, when she edged Mother Mother by a neck for second in the Starlet Stakes (G1) but missed the win at 30-1 odds when she hit the wire a head behind another Baffert entry, Chasing Yesterday. The Uncle Mo filly's grade 1 placing came after she graduated by 2 1/2 lengths in a one-mile maiden special weight race in October at Santa Anita.
Mark DeDomenico, George Todaro, and trainer Jerry Hollendorfer's Calf Moon Bay has also found recent success at two turns since she finished second to Enaya Alrabb in her maiden-breaking win. The Bodemeister filly took a maiden special weight at Los Alamitos Dec. 14 by five lengths, then scored a first-level allowance by a nose Jan. 11 at Santa Anita. Both races were two-turn mile races.

SAN VICENTE A 'SCHOOLING RACE' FOR COLISEUMBy Jeremy Balant @BH_JBalan
As has come to be expected for any number of tal-ented colts trained by Bob Baffert, the hype meter
was turned up ahead of the Jan. 5 Sham Stakes (G3).Godolphin's Coliseum, a Tapit colt, won his
seven-furlong debut at Del Mar so impressively in November, the next shoe to drop was almost inevitable—odds-on favoritism in a stakes race.
But unlike many from the Baffert barn who get the "freak" tag early, Coliseum came up flat in the one-mile Sham at odds of 3-5. He broke last, was rank and wide in the first turn, pulled his way to midpack in the backstretch, was never much of a threat, and finished sixth.
Now Coliseum will cut back to seven furlongs for the $200,000 San Vicente Stakes (G2) Feb. 10 at Santa Anita Park, but he needs to show something for his trainer to take the next step.
"I think this is going to be more of a wait-and-watch thing. We'll school him a little bit," Baffert said of the colt who hasn't been the most manageable runner in both training and racing. "This is his schooling race, because after this, he's going to need to have his big-boy pants on. It's going to be tough."
Jockey Mike Smith, Baffert's go-to rider in recent years for his top equine talents, will be aboard
Coliseum for the first time in the San Vicente and will be tasked with getting the gray to calm down in the early running.
"Seven furlongs and then we'll stretch him out," Baffert said of Coliseum's potential path on the Triple Crown trail. "I want a positive race, and I want to see if Mike can get him to shut it down. He needs to learn how to settle. If he broke like a shot, then we could just send him.
"But he's a very talented horse. Just raw, raw talent. We're just trying to harness that talent in a positive way. The last race was not a positive race. You wouldn't want a race like that again."
Baffert's second entry in the five-horse San Vicente is Sheikh Mohammed bin Khalifa al Maktoum's Dessman, a 7 1/2-length debut winner going six furlongs at Santa Anita Jan. 19. Baffert said that win from the Florida-bred Union Rags colt surprised and encouraged him.

BLOODHORSE DAILY PAGE 27 OF 45SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 9, 2019
"He wasn't ready to win first out and he did. He's a very talented horse, and we took our time with him," the trainer said. "He's a Union Rags, and I think Union Rags (offspring) really get better with age, so I went really slow with him, and he ran pretty good.
"He'll be very competitive, and if Coliseum collapses ..."
The rest of the short field has significantly more seasoning—all have seven starts or more—but less apparent potential for star power.
The most accomplished in the trio of challengers to the Baffert-trained favorites is Del Secco DCS Racing's Sparky Ville. A move to the turf didn't go so well in the Dec. 28 Eddie Logan Stakes, where he finished sixth last time out, but sprinting on dirt in California has been lucrative for the Candy Ride gelding trained by Jeff Bonde.
Sparky Ville has placed in two graded events already—a second in the Aug. 11 Best Pal Stakes (G2) and a third in the Nov. 17 Bob Hope Stakes (G3)—and in his last start on the Santa Anita main track, he won the Oct. 21 Sunny Slope Stakes over fellow San Vicente entrant Savagery. Savagery, who sped to a 3 1/2-length allowance win last time out Jan. 12 at Santa Anita, turned the tables in their second meeting and edged Sparky Ville for second by a head in the Bob Hope.
Rounding out the field is Big Chief Racing, Madaket Stables, Rocker O Ranch, and trainer Keith Desormeaux's Synthesis, who has won or placed in his past three starts (at three different racetracks) and finished third to Savagery in the Jan. 12 allowance.
Also on the Sunday card at Santa Anita is the $100,000 Sweet Life Stakes (G3T), a new grade 3 turf sprint on the Santa Anita stakes schedule for 2019.
KMN Racing's homebred Apache Princess will seek her third straight sprint victory down the Santa Anita hillside turf course, following her 1 1/2-length maiden-breaking score Dec. 30 and a 3 1/2-length first-level allowance victory Jan. 21. A 3-year-old, California-bred daughter of Unusual Heat, Apache Princess is trained by Desormeaux. BH

SEJO SET FOR U.S. DEBUT IN SAN MARCOSBy Jeremy Balant @BH_JBalan
Sejo's entry in the $200,000 San Marcos Stakes (G2T) Feb. 9 isn't the type of
move John Sadler usually makes.Sadler would have liked the 4-year-
old Nathaniel colt, who was privately purchased by Hronis Racing after six races in France, to get his footing in Southern California in an allowance, but this type of race doesn't come up in allowance conditions very often.
"He wants to run all day," Sadler said of Sejo, who will kick off his U.S. career in the 1 1/4-mile San Marcos on the Santa Anita Park grass. "I don't know if he's going to need (a race) or not, but none of those (allowance) races are long enough, so he's going to go in here. He's a pretty nice horse and the races are pretty good over there, so he's ready to go."
Sejo went winless in his first four starts in France—the first two on synthetic and the second two on soft turf—but won his final two starts for trainer Carlos Laffon-Parias on turf labeled "firm" at Longchamp in May and July.
"It's harder than ever to buy horses privately, but I have people looking for me all over," Sadler said. "This horse came across my desk, I liked him, we vetted him, we did our due diligence, and we bought him. It wasn't that exotic. But I'm anxious to get him going."
Sejo will have to be pretty good in the San Marcos, arguably the most compelling race of the weekend. Thirteen are entered—including Hollywood Turf Cup Stakes (G2T) winner Chicago Style, three-time graded stakes winner Flamboyant, Cougar II Handicap (G3) victor Beach View, and Red Carpet Handicap (G3T) winner India Mantuana (the only mare in the field)—but the main curiosities in the field are the Bob Baffert-trained pair of Dabster and Roman Rosso.
Although it's not that rare for Baffert to run on the grass, running two in a graded stakes is an aberration.
Neither has yet to run on the turf from a combined 22 starts, and the Hall of Fame trainer indicated the reason for the entries had more to do with the distance than the surface.
Roman Rosso won three group 1 races in South America—at distances of 1 3/8 miles, 1 9/16 miles, and 1 1/4 miles—before he was transferred to Baffert in 2018. Since then, he has finished far back in two starts, the $1 Million TVG Pacific Classic Stakes (G1) and the Comma to the Top Stakes.
Dabster ran perhaps the best race of his career in the 1 3/4-mile Marathon Stakes Presented by TAA (G2) at Churchill Downs in November, when he finished second to Rocketry by three-quarters of a length, and he won the Los Alamitos Special Stakes at 1 1/4 miles in September.
"Roman Rosso really needs to go a mile and a half, and Dabster—I didn't want to run him in that last one," Baffert said of Dabster's scratch out of the sloppy San Pasqual Stakes (G2) Feb. 2. "We'll kill two birds with one stone (for Dabster)—get the distance and see if he likes grass. We know he'll go a mile and a quarter. Will he like the grass? We'll find out." BH

TWISTON-DAVIES SLAMS BHA FOR 'OVERREACTION' TO FLUBy Graham Dench/Racing Post
Nigel Twiston-Davies believes the rigorous meas-ures put in place by the British Horseracing
Authority to contain equine influenza are "a massive overreaction."
The Grand National and Gold Cup-winning trainer, who had a runner at Ludlow Feb. 6 and so is among those who had to have all his horses tested, described the BHA mandate as "a total knee-jerk reaction" and suggested the authority may find it has "opened a can of worms."
"It's a massive overreaction," he said. "All horses are vaccinated, and so when they do get it, it's not really anything to worry about. They get sick, but not that sick—just a snotty nose and temperature.
"I should think every trainer in the country has a horse with a snotty nose, and what you do is take blood tests, take tracheal washes, and take their temperature, and if they're clear, they're all right.
"Flu is endemic in the whole horse population, and what I think the BHA will find is that they've opened a can of worms and that every trainer has two or three. We all have bugs and treat them as they come. It's rife everywhere but not fatal. It's not like herpes or strangles, which are a disaster. This is far from a disaster because we're all vaccinated. It's a total knee-jerk reaction."
While the majority in the racing industry have so far supported the BHA's swift and firm handling of the situation, prominent Newmarket equine veterinarian Pete Ramzan is another who believes its measures are disproportionate to the threat the disease poses. He said he reckons if a new strain of flu is out there, then it will happen, regardless, but will pass as it has in previous instances.
Ramzan, a partner in the Rossdales veterinary practice who was awarded Fellowship of the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons last year, said: "I think it's fair to say that for the time being vets and
trainers are happy to go along with these measures, but I can't quite see where they're leading. To some degree, it looks an overreaction and isn't necessarily justified by the circumstances, given flu is endemic in the U.K.
"The BHA takes advice from experts, but as a clinician at the coalface, dealing with respiratory disease on a daily basis in racing yards, it seems as if the measures put in place do not match the threat to British racehorses or racing.
"If a new strain of flu is going to break through the excellent vaccination protocols already in use in most yards, history tells us it will happen regardless of these measures, as flu is far less containable than other more serious diseases like strangles or neurological herpes virus."
Ramzan, whose book "The Racehorse: A Veterinary Manual" is said to be the first comprehensive textbook wholly dedicated to veterinary management of the racehorse, added: "The U.K. Thoroughbred population is probably one of the best-vaccinated groups of animals on the planet, but just as in people, we should expect 'bad' flu years from time to time, and we're probably overdue one. Perhaps we're on the cusp of just such a year, although this is by no means certain at this early stage.

"If so, we can expect some poor-performing yards and more respiratory disease than usual, but as with previous episodes it will pass, vaccines will get updated, and we'll then have another extended period of relative health in the population.
"I can understand a degree of nervousness on the part of the regulator, who have to be seen to be doing the right thing, and it's understandable it wishes to find out more, but this can be achieved through surveillance swabbing without mandating a
shutdown of racing or of individual yards."Trainers by and large use their common sense,
and nobody chooses to send sick horses to the races."Some have questioned why a lockdown has been
ordered in this instance when racing was allowed to continue in 2003 despite 1,300 horses in the Newmarket area contracting equine influenza.
BHA head of media Robin Mounsey said: "Our understanding is that it was the fact it was confined to one specific region that meant racing could continue."

JUDDMONTE REVEALS MATING PLANS FOR TOP MARESBy James Thomas/Racing Post
Juddmonte unveiled this year's mating plans for some notable members of its blue-chip European
broodmare band, with the grand dame of the herd, Kind, due to visit Galileo for the ninth time in her career in a repeat of the mating responsible for the incomparable Frankel.
Kind, a stakes-winning daughter of Danehill, has produced four other winners, three of whom have also gained black type, namely Frankel's year-younger brother Noble Mission, who won three group 1 stakes and is now carving out his own successful stud career at Lane's End in Kentucky; Totesport.com Derby Trial (G3) winner Bullet Train, a son of Sadler's Wells; and
stakes-winning sprinter Joyeuse.Joining Kind on the trip to Coolmore for a date with
Galileo is Starformer, a daughter of Dynaformer who landed the 2013 New York Stakes (G2T) for Bill Mott.
The 11-year-old is already the dam of promising types Flavius, a son of War Front who landed the listed Trigo Stakes last year, and Tankerville, a son of Kitten's Joy who ran out an impressive winner of a Gowran maiden on his only start at 2.
Prince Khalid Abdullah's familiar pale green, pink, and white silks were carried to two monumental successes last year courtesy of Enable, who returned from injury to land a second consecutive Qatar Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe (G1) before she traversed the Atlantic and claimed the Longines Breeders' Cup Turf (G1T) at Churchill Downs.

A Juddmonte homebred, Enable is out of Concentric, a 15-year-old daughter of Sadler's Wells who will be covered by Banstead Manor Stud's most famous resident, Frankel, in 2019.
The mating will mean the resulting foal is inbred 3x2 to Sadler's Wells—as is Enable, who is by Nathaniel, another son of the Coolmore legend Galileo.
Concentric, who was again covered by Nathaniel in 2018, also has a 2-year-old filly by Frankel named Portrush.
Other high-achieving Juddmonte names in Frankel's book include four-time grade 1 winner Emollient; Beverly D Stakes (G1T) scorer Heat Haze—the dam of group 3-winning Mirage Dancer who is also a half sister to sire Dansili and group 1 winners Banks Hill, Intercontinental, Cacique, and Champs Elysees; Total Prix Marcel Boussac-Criterium des Pouliches (G1) victress Proportional; Samba Inc, winner of the group 1 Gran Premio de Potrancas (G1) in Argentina; top-class juvenile and dual classic winner Special Duty; and Del Mar Debutante Stakes (G1) heroine Union Strike, who was led out of last year's Keeneland November Breeding Stock Sale unsold at US$1.9 million.
Another new addition to the Juddmonte broodmare band penciled in to visit Frankel is Classical Times. The stakes-winning daughter of Lawman, an ultrarare horse-in-training purchase by Juddmonte, is a half sister to unbeaten Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf (G1T) winner Newspaperofrecord.
Also among Frankel's book are the group performers or producers Lucky Kristale, Modern Look—dam of Grand Jete—Principal Role, Visit, and Vote Often.
Frankel—sire of five top-level winners, including the world's joint-highest-rated horse in Cracksman—will stand for £175,000 ($226,400) in 2019.
Kingman's QueensThe hugely exciting Kingman is set to receive a
book befitting of the bright start he has made at stud. The four-time group 1-winning miler has supplied 26 winners from his debut crop, including the unbeaten Coventry Stakes (G2) hero Calyx and the promising stakes-winning Sangarius.
The dams of those two performers, Helleborine and Trojan Queen, are among the names on Kingman's 2019 dance card and are scheduled to be joined by other talented producers, including: group 1 winner African Rose, dam of Juddmonte Princess Margaret Stakes (G3) scorer Fair Eva; Audi Pretty Polly Stakes (G1) heroine Promising Lead; prolific grade 1 winners Proviso and Ventura; and Winter Sunrise, dam of Markel Insurance Nassau Stakes (G1) heroine Winsili.
Other notable names among Kingman's fifth book include Arizona Jewel, dam of last year's impressive listed scorer Desert Diamond; dual group 3 winner Big Break; Deliberate, dam of grade 2 winner Projected; the listed winners Mirror Lake—dam of listed winner Imaging—and Rostova; and Very Good News, the dam of smart stayer Weekender.
Emerging ExpertPrince Khalid Abdullah's operation is also throwing
its considerable weight behind the latest recruit to Banstead Manor Stud, Expert Eye.
The Breeders' Cup Mile (G1T) winner, a son of Acclamation who will stand at a fee of £20,000 ($25,870), is being given an excellent chance to get his second career off to the best possible start with 12 members of Juddmonte's powerful broodmare band featuring in his debut book.
They include eight black-type performers or producers, such as Mirabilis, a group 3-winning Lear Fan half sister to dual group 1 winner Nebraska Tornado and already the dam of Monarchs Glen; and the stakes-winning trio Entree, Emergency—a half sister to King's Stand Stakes (G1) winner Prohibit—and Zaminast, a half sister to group winners Famous Name and Big Break.

Seven of the Juddmonte mares due to be covered by Expert Eye, himself a wide-margin winner of the Qatar Vintage Stakes (G2) at 2, have already produced juveniles winners, including Lilyfire, dam of 2018 Duchess of Cambridge Stakes (G2) third Chaleur, and Ombre, dam of dual group-placed 2-year-old Gavota.
Dream TeamOasis Dream, now the elder statesman of the
Banstead Manor stallion roster, enjoyed a fruitful 2018 season, headed by two new group 1 winners in Polydream and Pretty Pollyanna, who took his tally of top-flight scorers to 17.
Among the Juddmonte mares due to visit the 19-year-old son of Green Desert this year are Shared Account, who has already produced the group 2-placed juvenile Sand Share by Oasis Dream, and Straight Thinking, a multiple group-placed half sister to Darley Prix Jean Romanet (G1) winner Announce.
Completing the five-strong lineup at Banstead Manor is Dansili's son Bated Breath, who is scheduled to cover Showcasing's winning sister Palmette, stakes scorer Kilo Alpha, as well as the well-related pair Aspirer, a daughter of Frankel and Nebraska Tornado,
and the winning Galileo mare Solar Pursuit, who in turn is a half sister to the group/grade 1 winners Polish Summer and Meteor Storm.

LOVE DREAMS SURVIVES FALL DOWN STAIRS AT MEYDANBy Graham Dench/Racing Post
Love Dreams, who threw jockey Royston Ffrench and fell down two flights of concrete stairs into the
bowels of Meydan Feb. 7, has emerged from his dra-matic ordeal relatively unscathed and should be able to resume his career before long.
The 5-year-old son of five-time group 1 winner and Kentucky-bred Dream Ahead was in the paddock being prepared to take his place in the field for a seven-furlong handicap when the incident took place.
"I thought it would be about 1-1,000 he'd broken his neck and killed himself, but unbelievably he's absolutely fine," reported Charlie Johnston, assistant to his father, Mark Johnston. The young horseman was in Dubai supervising Love Dreams before the final race on the Thursday card, from which he was subsequently withdrawn.
Johnston did not see the incident—nor footage of it—but was among the first on the scene afterward and could scarcely believe his eyes.
"I'd legged Royston up and then gone back to the center of the paddock to speak to the owners, so I didn't see it happen. But I heard a fairly loud bang, which I think was Love Dreams crashing through the plastic rails on the edge of the paddock and getting rid of Royston," he said. "Then as he's got up and tried to gallop away, he sent himself down two flights of concrete stairs.
"Some say he jumped a concrete wall. I didn't see that, and looking at the skid marks in the grass close to the top of the stairs, I think he may have just got up and galloped off after getting rid of Royston and just not known where he was going," he added. "When I got to the top of the stairs, I thought I was sure to be confronted by a dead horse, but he was on his feet and looking up as if to say, 'What am I doing down here?'
"I went straight down and took the tack off, and all he'd done was taken a little skin off his stifles and lost a tooth. Apart from that, there was not a bother on him. It was absolutely extraordinary. I'll be surprised if I ever see
anything like it again in my lifetime."
Extricating Love Dreams from his predicament could have been quite an ordeal, but that was not how it turned out.
"The team at Meydan were fantastic, and it went surprisingly well in the circumstances," Johnston said. "He was given a light sedative, then they got someone on either side of his head and the equivalent of stalls handlers with quoits behind him, and they got him up the stairs in one go."
Love Dreams was on surprisingly good terms with himself Friday morning and, all being well, will be racing again before too long.
Johnston said: "Our traveling head girl, Robynne Watton, gave him a lead out, and he seems fine. He's had some bute and so he couldn't race at the next couple of meetings anyway, but he won't be stopping racing on account of a freak accident like that. It will be business as usual."
Ffrench was able to walk away from the incident unaided but was understandably shaken by it.
