INQUIRY Presented By Iowa Thoroughbred Breeders And Owners Association: Favorite Sports Teams On The Sales Grounds?

Horse racing tiptoes the line between sport and business, but when its participants look outside of racing for entertainment, where do they go?

In this edition of INQUIRY, we see who participants in the bloodstock industry cheer for away from the racetrack by asking the question, “What is your favorite sports team?”

Donato Lanni – Hill 'n' Dale Farms

“My favorite team is the Chicago Blackhawks. It's an electric place to go watch a game, and I met and got to know Joel Quenneville, their [former] coach, through John Sikura, and John's nephew played for the Blackhawks, so it's nice to see that all come together. Denis Savard, Eddie Olczyk, a lot of those Blackhawks seem to like the horse business. You see them out in the grandstand, and it's pretty cool.”

 

 

 

Mark Taylor – Taylor Made Sales Agency

“The Clemson Tigers. I went to Clemson, and if you went to Clemson, it's a cult, and once you get indoctrinated, you can't get it out of your blood. I live, breathe, eat, sleep Clemson football. I went down there a basketball fan because I'm from Kentucky, but I came out a football fan.”

 

 

Stuart Morris – Morris Bloodstock Services

“University of Kentucky basketball, man. If you've gotta ask twice, don't ask me again.”

 

 

 

 

Carrie Brogden – Machmer Hall Sales

“I'm going to have to go with the James Madison University Dukes, which is my alma mater. They are a basketball school. We used to go to all their games when I was young and it was great fun.”

 

 

 

Hanzly Albina – Blake-Albina Thoroughbred Services

“I don't really follow sports. Horse racing is my sport.”

 

 

 

 

 

Craig Bernick – Glen Hill Farm

“I like the Chicago Cubs because they used to play in the daytime, so you'd come home from school and watch the last few innings. The minute I got my driver's license, I was driving up there, parking my car, and buying tickets. I learned how to scalp tickets a little bit, and just spent a lot of time in that area. When I went to college, it was the one team that was still on TV, so I could follow them. They've always been my favorite team, by far.”

Classic Winner Sovereign Supplemented for Bahrain International Trophy

Sovereign (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}), the 2019 G1 Irish Derby hero for Aidan O’Brien and the Coolmore partners, is a late supplement to the 2000-metre £500,000 Bahrain International Trophy on Nov. 20, the Rashid Equestrian & Horseracing Club announced on Wednesday. Also second in this term’s G1 King George VI and Queen Elizabeth QIPCO S., Sovereign will be O’Brien’s first Bahraini runner.

“Sovereign is a strong mile and a quarter horse,” O’Brien told the Rashid Equestrian & Horseracing Club notes team. (Click here to view the interview.) “He is a very strong galloper who likes to go forward in his races and we think the Bahrain International Trophy will suit him. He is a big genuine, sound horse. He’s an Irish Derby winner. We saw what he did in the Irish Derby and he ran a massive race in the King George where he was second to Enable (GB) (Nathaniel {Ire}), so we think the race will suit him and we are looking forward to seeing him run.”

The supplementary stage closes on Nov. 3, with a max field of 14 allowed (12 Europeans and two Bahraini horses).

Empire 6: Mandatory Payout Scheduled For Nov. 1 Closing Day At Belmont Park

The New York Racing Association, Inc. (NYRA) announces that the Sunday, Nov. 1 card at Belmont Park will feature a mandatory payout of the Empire 6, which boasts a jackpot of $299,827.81 heading into the start of the racing week on Thursday at Belmont.

Live coverage of all the races in the sequence will be available with America's Day at the Races on FOX Sports and MSG+. Free Equibase-provided past performances will be available for races that are part of the America's Day at the Races broadcast and can be accessed at https://www.nyra.com/belmont/racing/tv-schedule.

Sunday's live racing program at Belmont, which closes out the 27-day Belmont fall meet, will be highlighted by two stakes races, each with an $80,000 purse: the Chelsey Flower at 1 1/16 miles for 2-year-old fillies on the turf; and the $80,000 Pumpkin Pie, a 7-furlong test on the dirt for fillies and mares 3-years-old and up.

Closing Day of the Belmont fall meet will also feature mandatory payouts for both the Early Pick 5 and Late Pick 5 wagers.

Live racing will then move to Aqueduct Racetrack for the 18-day fall meet, featuring 29 stakes, including 11 graded events, worth $3.41 million in purse money, which will kick off on Friday, November 6 and run through Sunday, December 6.

The Empire 6 requires the bettor to select the first-place finisher of the final six races of the day's card. On non-mandatory payout days, if one unique ticket exists, then 100 percent of the net pool, plus the jackpot carryover if applicable, will be paid to the winner. If there is no unique wager selecting the first-place finisher in all six races, then 75 percent of the day's net pool will be distributed to those who selected the first-place finisher in the greatest number of races. The remainder will be added into the jackpot and carried to the next day's Empire 6.
