Debut Southern Hemisphere Fee Set For Globetrotter State Of Rest

Cox Plate hero and international iron horse State Of Rest has had his Southern Hemisphere fee announced at AUS$44,000 (US$29,261) including GST.

State Of Rest was a phenomenal world-class racehorse who won prestigious Group 1s in four different countries.

He was the first horse in history to win three consecutive Group 1s on three different continents. He won a vintage Cox Plate defeating Australia's champion 3-year-old colt Anamoe and Horse of the Year and 11 time Group 1 winner Verry Elleegant as a 3-year-old. Prior to that start, he took the Grade 1 Saratoga Derby Invitational Stakes in the U.S., and he finished his three-race streak with a triumph in the G1 Prix Ganay in France.

However, the jewel in his crown was training on at four to win the G1 Prince of Wales's Stakes at Royal Ascot defeating an exceptional line-up of heavyweight European and Japanese performers, and franking his elite global status.

“In the last twenty years Cox Plate winning 3-year-olds have had an extraordinary record at stud with the likes of Savabeel, Shamus Award, and So You Think all developing into very important sires in the Australian breeding landscape,” said Newgate Managing Director Henry Field. “He's a very good looking, high-quality son of leading sire Starspangledbanner out of arguably one of the best mares in Europe, Repose, who herself was recently purchased by international breeding powerhouse Juddmonte.”

“Most importantly, State Of Rest goes to stud with one of the finest bodies of work of any stallion to retire to stud in Australia in recent years.  He has one of the most powerful ownership groups of any stallion we have ever stood at Newgate and they will be supporting him heavily.”

OwnerView Webinar Focuses On Horseracing Integrity And Safety Authority For Owners

On Thursday, March 23, OwnerView hosted a Virtual Thoroughbred Owner Conference panel to provide information for owners about the Horseracing Integrity and Safety Authority (HISA) and its Anti-Doping and Medication Control Program (ADMC), which goes into effect on March 27.

The panelists were Lisa Lazarus, chief executive officer of HISA, and David Ingordo, a Thoroughbred owner and bloodstock agent and a member of HISA's Horsemen's Advisory Group. Gary Falter, project manager for OwnerView, moderated the discussion. Attendees were able ask questions through Zoom's Q&A feature, and the questions were answered toward the end of the webinar.

Lazarus and Ingordo discussed topics such as the overall HISA and ADMC programs, benefits to owners, contamination versus administered substances, bisphosphonates, and misconceptions about HISA.

“If you are doing the right things and following the rules, you are going to be fine,” Lazarus said. “You are actually going to be better because you're not going to feel like you need to break the rules to win. Ultimately, we are trying to protect trainers, the vast majority of which want to compete clean.”

“In my lifetime, we've never had uniformity. You know, every state is different, every track might have different rules,” Ingordo said. “Under HISA and the Anti-Doping, and Medication Control portion of it especially, we are going to have uniformity.”

A replay of the conference can be viewed here: bit.ly/OVHISA2023.

The Horseracing Integrity and Safety Act, which was signed into law in December 2020, established HISA as an independent agency to draft and enforce uniform safety and integrity rules in Thoroughbred racing in the United States.

HISA's Racetrack Safety Program rules and regulations were approved by the Federal Trade Commission and implemented on July 1, 2022.

Nine additional Thoroughbred Owner Conference virtual panels are scheduled for 2023.

The next session will be held April 4 at 2 p.m. ET and will feature expert handicappers discussing the details of a variety of betting options and handicapping your horse's race. A full schedule can be found here: bit.ly/OVSchedule.

There is no registration fee for the 2023 virtual conference series, but registration is required. For more information about the owner conference series, including the schedule of panels and registration, please visit ownerview.com/event/conference or contact Gary Falter at 859.224.2803 or gfalter@jockeyclub.com.

OwnerView is a joint effort spearheaded by The Jockey Club and the Thoroughbred Owners and Breeders Association to encourage ownership of Thoroughbreds and provide accurate information on aspects of ownership such as trainers, public racing syndicates, the process of purchasing and owning a Thoroughbred, racehorse retirement, and owner licensing.

The need for a central resource to encourage Thoroughbred ownership was identified in the comprehensive economic study of the sport that was commissioned by The Jockey Club and conducted by McKinsey & Company in 2011. The OwnerView site was launched in May 2012.

Retired Racehorse Project Launches Fund-A-Need Program For Thoroughbred Makeover

The Retired Racehorse Project (RRP) announced Monday the launch of its 2023 Fund-a-Need program, designed for donors to make direct contributions to help put on the organization's banner event, the Thoroughbred Makeover. Through Fund-a-Need, donors can direct their gift to a wide range of categories with options for every budget, from funding staff and official travel to the event by the mile to covering completion ribbons for every competitor.

“The Thoroughbred Makeover has solidified itself not only as a showcase of the versatility and trainability of the breed, but also a vital pillar of the aftercare industry, driving demand for horses and thereby increasing the capacity of adoption facilities to serve more horses annually,” said the RRP's executive director Kirsten Green. “Unfortunately, nonprofits are not immune to the rising costs of doing business, and the resources required to produce the Makeover are not guaranteed from any source. We hope that by offering ways to contribute at any level, we can engage our community in helping to ensure we can continue to produce the quality experience that the Makeover has become known for.”

The Thoroughbred Makeover and National Symposium, presented by Thoroughbred Charities of America, is the largest retraining competition for recently-retired racehorses. Drawing hundreds of trainers and horses annually from all across the United States as well as Canada, the event has become a national gathering for Thoroughbred enthusiasts in both the equestrian and racing industries to celebrate the versatility and trainability of the ex-racehorse embarking on its next chapter.

The 2023 Thoroughbred Makeover will be held at the Kentucky Horse Park in Lexington on October 11-14. Make your contribution at therrp.org/fund-a-need; sponsorship packages are also available for this event with more information found at therrp.org/sponsorship-opportunities.

About the Retired Racehorse Project: The Retired Racehorse Project (RRP) is a 501(c)3 charitable organization working to increase demand for off-track Thoroughbreds in the equestrian world. In addition to producing the Thoroughbred Makeover and National Symposium, the world's largest and most lucrative retraining competition for recently-retired racehorses, the organization also publishes Off-Track Thoroughbred Magazine, produces the Master Class retraining clinic series, and presents programming at major horse expos and events around the country. The RRP maintains an educational library of content to empower more equestrians to ride a Thoroughbred.
