PRIVATE ZONE IN FLORIDA FOR THERAPYBy Claire Novak

Grade I winner Private Zone will get some well-

deserved time off, co-owner and racing manager

Rene Douglas said.

The Macho Uno gelding shipped Dec. 1 to The

Sanctuary Sports Therapy and Rehabilitation Center

near Ocala, Fla. Second in the Breeders' Cup Sprint

(gr. I), Private Zone was a tired fifth as the favorite in

the Cigar Mile (gr. I) Nov. 28. It was his first start for

trainer Brian Lynch, who aborted a planned breeze

prior to the race.

"We never had a chance to work him, and at that

point I should have decided not to go," Douglas

said. "But he came out good. He has little 6-year-old

issues; just wear and tear. I want to bring him back to

Florida and give him all the treatment he deserves.

The Sanctuary seems like a nice place, and he can go

to the hyperbaric chamber."

Private Zone was ninth in the 2013 Dubai Golden

Shaheen (UAE-I), a race he could target in 2016. "I

guarantee everyone will see a new Private Zone next

year," Douglas said. BH

LADY ELI CONTINUES TO MAKE PROGRESSBy Lenny Shulman

Undefeated 3-year-old filly Lady Eli, continuing

her recovery from laminitis, arrived at trainer

Chad Brown's shedrow at Palm Meadows Training

Center in Florida Nov. 29 and is tack-walking as part

of the next phase of her rehabilitation.

"We're thrilled with how she looks," Brown said.

"Her X-rays appear normal, and there is no evi-

dence of the laminitic episode. She's trotting sound

on the shank and her condition looks excellent."

There is no timetable for Lady Eli to go to the

training track. "I'm just going to take it week-to-

week," Brown said.

Lady Eli, campaigned by Sheep Pond Partners,

had been rehabbing since late September at Dell

Ridge Farm near Lexington under the care of farm

manager Des Ryan and foot specialist Dr. Bryan

Fraley. Ryan said Lady Eli did everything the right

way while at the farm and that she left "pretty much

in regular shoes. We're excited to get her back to

Chad."

Bred by Catesby Clay and his Runnymede Farm,

Lady Eli, by Divine Park, has earned $1,449,800. BH

MARES BRING HIGH PRICES ON DAY 2By Carl Evans

Big names with recent top-grade victories studded

the premier session of the Tattersalls mares sale

Dec. 1, but none had the boxes ticked like Hanky

Panky.

The 5-year-old Galileo mare out of Mariah's

Storm is a half sister to leading sire Giant's Cause-

way and to You'resothrilling, dam of classic-winning

milers Gleneagles and Marvellous. Another half sis-

ter, Love Me Only, produced Storm the Stars, who

placed in two Derbys this year. Also illuminating

Hanky Panky's glittering page is her Dubawi cover.

Having visited Sheikh Mohammed's Dalham Hall

for that mating, she returns there, bought by John

Ferguson for 2.7 million guineas ($4,268,376) from

John Sikura's Hill 'n' Dale Farms.

M.V. Magnier purchased group I-winning juve-

nile Tiggy Wiggy for 2.1 million guineas ($3,319,848)

from Charles Noell and John Moores' Merriebelle

Stable. Qualify, an Oaks (Eng-I) winner and a rarity

to be offered in the year of her classic triumph, was

another for Sheikh Mohammed at 1.6 million guin-

eas ($2,529,408).

Gross reached 27,657,000 guineas ($43,722,398)

down 5% while the average of 170,722 guineas

($269,890) increased 1%. BH

SAINT LIAM'S LEGACY CONTINUESBy Ron Mitchell

Saint Liam's legacy continues: The ill-

fated stallion was represented by his

first stakes winner as a broodmare sire

when Stoneway Farm's homebred 3-year-

old Candy Ride filly Ahh Chocolate won

the Nov. 26 Falls City Handicap (gr. II) at

Churchill Downs.

A brilliant racehorse, Saint Liam carried

Horse of the Year honors and great expec-

tations when he retired to Lane's End with

16 top-three finishes from 20 starts and

earnings of nearly $4.5 million. However,

the son of Saint Ballado stood only one

season. In August 2006 while being led to

his paddock, he fell, fractured his left hind

leg, and was euthanized.

From that single crop, Saint Liam has

sired 10 stakes winners, five of which won

graded stakes. His top runner, Havre de Grace, was

voted Horse of the Year of 2011 for Fox Hill Farm and

sold at the 2012 Fasig-Tipton November sale for $10

million to Mandy Pope.

The Falls City was the first stakes victory for Ahh

Chocolate, who defeated older fillies and mares in

the Churchill fixture. BH

TURFWAY APPROVED FOR HISTORICAL RACINGBy Frank Angst

The Kentucky Horse Racing Commission Dec. 1 ap-

proved adding historical racing machines at Turf-

way Park, the state's fourth Thor-

oughbred track to offer the games

that look like video lottery terminals

but base payouts on a pari-mutuel

formula.

Likely acting before any potential

changes in political winds—Gov.-

elect Matt Bevin will take office

Dec. 8—Turfway asked and received

approval for 250 machines. Officials

from Turfway owner Rock Gaming

said they are working on construc-

tion contracts for an on-site facility

and couldn't say whether the games

would be up and running in 2016.

Historic racing machines are in

place at Kentucky Downs, Ellis Park,

and in a joint effort with Keeneland

at Red Mile, a Lexington Standardbred track.

Meanwhile, Keeneland's efforts to build a Quarter

Horse track that would include historical racing ma-

chines in Corbin, Ky., have been slowed by litigation

that prevented the KHRC from considering Keene-

land's license request at the Dec. 1 meeting. BH

CAREER BEST FOR PAGE McKENNEYBy Frank Angst

Who is the best older horse in training without

a graded stakes win? If the answer is not Page

McKenney, the 5-year-old Eavesdropper gelding cer-

tainly belongs in the conversation.

On Nov. 25 at Penn National, Page McKenney,

trained by Mid-Atlantic based Mary Eppler, registered

the week's best Equibase Speed Figure, a career-best

124 in the Swatara Stakes. His previous best of 118

had been earned two starts back in a close second in

the Roanoke Stakes at Parx Racing.

With the half-length Swatara victory over grade III

winner Kid Cruz, who also earned a 124 in the 1 1/16-

mile test, Page McKenney earned his second stakes win in 11 days, having taken the Richard W. Small at Laurel

Park for his fourth stakes win this season and seventh in the past two seasons.

Owned by Adam Staple and Jalin Stable, Page McKenney has placed in nine other stakes, including a run-

ner-up finish in this year's Pimlico Special (gr. III) and third-place finishes in two other graded stakes.BH

STALLIONS

MAKING SENSE OF 'SEASONOMICS'

When I call an agent or farm to discuss sea-

sons for mares, I wear my "breeder's hat."

But it's not unusual that the farm's explanation

of its pricing policies causes me to instinctively

don my "economist/consultant's" hat. I almost

always stifle the little voice in my head when

that happens, perhaps because I was subcon-

sciously saving its comments for this column.

A few years back I called a farm to report on

a foal-share newborn shortly after the Kentucky

Derby was won by a colt sired by one of the

farm's stallions. The representative volunteered

that the farm had been besieged by calls and

had not raised his fee.

The little voice in my head piped up, "Either

the stallion was overpriced to begin with, or the

farm manager was asleep in Economics 101

when they talked about supply and demand."

There was a windfall to be had; either the stal-

lion shareholders or the folks who waited until

the last minute to book a mare would benefit

from it. Guess which group a consultant would

argue for?

I called another farm in mid-May to inquire

about a stallion I knew wasn't booked full at

$25,000. It would not budge from $22,500. The

little voice suggested, "Ask them if they've ever

tried to sell a mare in foal on a late-May cover—

or a grass horse in October."

In an otherwise top-notch presentation to

my equine finance class by one of my favorite

industry folks, consider this statement: "When I

managed a farm, we always charged everyone

the same price for seasons because, otherwise, I

couldn't remember who paid what."

The little voice went berserk. "That's why we

have software!" it barked in my brain. It then

added, "You were online looking at car rental

prices and saw the same car priced by the same

company at eight different prices over the next

12 days! If it works for Hertz, maybe he should

ponder a parallel paradigm."

In other situations the little voice has opined

that stallion managers would come closer to the

"set marginal cost equal to marginal revenue"

rule from Economics 101 if they pay shipping

fees for out-of-state mares; if they discount sea-

sons for quality mares for young but not for old

stallions; if they apply quantity discounts; and

if they fill a first-year stallion's book even if they

have to give seasons away.

The little voice is short on diplomacy, and it

doesn't always consider the nuances of particu-

lar circumstances. But it's right to ask whether

we're doing things because that's the way we've

always done them, or because that's the way

they ought to be done. BH

2015 SIRES BY LIFETIME AEIListed below are the top 10 leading sires by lifetime Average Earnings Index (AEI) through November 30, 2015. Only active stallions in North America (excluding stallions that were exported prior to the 2011 breeding season) with at least 150 named foals of racing age are included. All statistics are Northern Hemisphere only. AEI indicates how much purse money the progeny of one sire has earned in relation to the average earnings of all runners in the same years; average earnings of all runners in any year is represented by an index of 1.00. CI indicates the average earnings of progeny produced from mares bred to one sire, when these same mares were bred to other sires.
