Albigna Camp Mulling Options

Jessica Harrington has “various options” as the next target for Group 1-winning filly Albigna (Ire) (Zoffany {Ire}). The 3-year-old holds entries for both the G3 Green Room Meld S. at Leopardstown on Saturday and the G1 Juddmonte Irish Oaks at The Curragh a week later, and could take up either engagement. After winning her first two juvenile starts, including a Group 2 success in the Airlie Stud S., the filly finished sixth behind subsequent dual Classic winner Love (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) in the G1 Moyglare Stud S. before claiming a Group 1 victory in the Prix Marcel Boussac at Longchamp. A valiant run to finish fourth in the GI Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf followed, and she was made favourite for last month’s G1 Tattersalls Irish 1000 Guineas as a result of those early exploits. The good to firm going hindered her chances in the fillies’ Classic, however, as the daughter of Zoffany could finish only sixth behind Aidan O’Brien’s Peaceful (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}). Ground considerations will be significant in deciding her next target.

“She’s in the Meld S. at Leopardstown and she’s also still in the Irish Oaks,” said Harrington. “So we’re yet to decide–there are various options for her. She doesn’t want good to firm ground. As long as the ground is nice, she’s ok–it was just a bit quick at The Curragh on Guineas day, that was all.”

Harrington also issued an update on Millisle (Ire) (Starspangledbanner {Aus}), who finished second in the G3 Coolmore Sioux Nation Lacken S. at Naas on Saturday. The filly was running for a second time since reverting to a distance of six furlongs, having previously suffered her heaviest defeat when finishing seventh in the G1 QIPCO 1000 Guineas. Despite regaining her form at her preferred trip, the 3-year-old will not take up her early entry in the July Cup and will instead be targeted at a contest closer to home.

“We’ll run over six or seven furlongs now,” added Harrington of the daughter of Green Castle (Ire) (Indian Ridge {Ire}). “We’ll probably look for races in Ireland next–the plan is for her to run her next race here.”

Brisnet.com Triple Crown Throwdown: Indiana Derby

Ed DeRosa of Brisnet.com takes on TDN’s Steve Sherack and Brian DiDonato as they handicap Triple Crown prep races plus the big three races themselves. The three will make $100 Win/Place bets in the preps and $200 Win/Place bets in the Kentucky Derby, Preakness and Belmont. Highest bankroll at the end wins.

DeRosa – Los Alamitos Derby Result – Uncle Chuck delivered as the heavy chalk. Bankroll: $3680.

GIII Indiana Derby – I had a real tough time separating Earner, Necker Island, and Shared Sense, but one thing is for sure: if those are the three I like, then this should be a playable race as I see both Major Fed and Winning Impression as vulnerable at their morning-line prices. Ultimately, I landed on Earner on top. He fell short going the nine-furlong Indiana Derby distance last out at Churchill Downs, finishing behind next-out Ohio Derby winner Dean Martini and next-out Blue Grass aspirant Man In the Can. His speed can be a weapon here over the aforementioned other contenders I like. Selection: #4 Earner (8-1).

Sherack – Los Alamitos Derby Result – Longshot Great Power set the pace and faded. Bankroll: $2605.

GIII Indiana Derby – The lightly raced Extraordinary still has some upside and enters off a better-than-it-looked fourth-place finish going this distance at Churchill Downs last month. He lost valuable early positioning that day, and made a flashy, wide move on the far turn from far back en route to a very solid effort. Runner-up Dean Martini returned to upset the GIII Ohio Derby. Have to like Luis Saez making the trip to ride as well. Let’s see if he can work out a better trip this time around. Selection: #2 Extraordinary (10-1).

DiDonato – Los Alamitos Derby Result – Required a back-up pick once again, and Thousand Words ran second, but there was no place betting in the race. . . ouch. Bankroll: $3755.

GIII Indiana Derby – Earner and Juggernaut look like they may set this one up for a closer, and Shared Sense is the one I want. He seemed to take a step forward when getting up in that Oaklawn allowance back in February, and while he hasn’t won in two subsequent efforts, he’s earned slightly faster figures–he could easily take another step forward here third off the bench. The turf try wasn’t bad at all, and he did well to be second behind the buzzed-about Art Collector last time in a four-horse Churchill optional claimer. The winner set a slow pace and had things his own way, and Shared Sense caught GI Arkansas Derby third Finnick the Fierce for second. Nine furlongs seems well within Shared Sense’s scope. The grandson of MGISW Composure is out of a full-sister to GSW/MGISP Penwith and half to MGISP Centring. This is a true dirt route pedigree, and he’s bred exactly like Maxfield (Street Sense over Bernardini). Selection: #5 Shared Sense (4-1).

David O’Meara Hits 1000 Flat Winners

Sudona (GB) (Zoffany {Ire}) gave trainer David O’Meara his 1000th domestic Flat success when taking the Pontefract Sports And Education Foundation H. at the West Yorkshire track. O’Meara, whose stables are in Upper Helmsley on the outskirts of York, took out a licence only in 2010 and is the second-fastest to reach the landmark in the UK after Richard Hannon, Jr. Sudona was sent off the 6-4 favourite and, ridden by stable jockey Danny Tudhope, was always in a handy position from his inside draw. It was pretty straightforward throughout, with Sudona hitting the front in the straight and seeing off his only serious challenger Zlatan (Ire) (Dark Angel {Ire}) to score by a length.

O’Meara told PA, “I’m absolutely delighted. It’s been 10 years and a month since we first took out a licence. When you first start out, you don’t think you’ll get this number at all. Obviously, in the last nine months or a year I knew it was getting close. It’s great.”

O’Meara’s first Group 1 triumph came with G Force (Ire) (Tamayuz {GB}), also ridden by Tudhope, in the Betfred Sprint Cup at Haydock in September 2014. Seven more victories at the top level have followed with Suedois (Fr) (Le Havre {Ire}) (Shadwell Turf Mile), Amazing Maria (Ire) (Mastercraftsman {Ire}) (Falmouth S. and Prix Rothschild), Mondialiste (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) (Arlington Million and Woodbine Mile), Move In Time (GB) (Monsieur Bond {Ire}) (Prix de l’Abbaye) and Lord Glitters (Fr) (Whipper) (Queen Anne S.). The horse that gave O’Meara a first real taste of the big time was Blue Bajan (Ire) (Montjeu {Ire}).

“He was very special,” he added. “He was a real good horse. He won a Group 2, the Henry II and was just touched off in a Yorkshire Cup. On the back of that we’ve had horses like Penitent (GB) (Kyllachy {GB}), G Force, Amazing Maria, Mondialiste, Suedois and Move In Time in the Abbaye. We’ve had a lot of highlights. It’s been a good 10 years. Hopefully the next 10 years will be as good.”
