										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>After what his connections described in a <a href="https://twitter.com/gainsboroughHQ/status/1746936916916724126">tweet on X</a> as 'works not showing the same sparkle' as in years prior, the 2023 G1 Dubai World Cup runner-up <strong>Algiers (Ire)</strong> (Shamardal) has been retired from racing.</p>
<p>A multiple Group winner in Meydan in addition to his second-place finish to multiple Group 1 winner Ushba Tesoro (Jpn) (Orfevre {Jpn}), he'd last been seen in Canada on Oct. 7, missing victory in Woodbine's GIII Durham Cup S. by half-a-length. A horse for Dubai's dirt courses, his first Group triumph came in 2022 when he took the G3 Jebel Ali Mile Sponsored by Shadwell and he won both rounds of the G2 Al Maktoum Challenge series as the lead up to that World Cup attempt. His career concludes with seven victories and lifetime earnings of over $3-million.</p>
<p>&#8220;Unfortunately, Algiers is not showing the same sparkle in his work and we have decided to retire him,&#8221; said co-conditioner Simon Crisford in that statement on X through the Gainsborough Thoroughbreds account. &#8220;He was a very consistent horse who loved Meydan. He showed his brilliance in Rounds 1 and 2 of the Maktoum Challenge before running a close second in the Dubai World Cup.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;He will now enjoy a happy retirement and I would like to thank his owners Sultan Ali and Hamdan bin Sultan Ali Alsabousi for their support.&#8221;</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Silver Sonic (Jpn)</strong> (Orfevre {Jpn) was the second of three Japanese winners on the Saudi Cup card, and turned in a smooth performance to take the $2.5-million G3 Longines Red Sea Turf H. as the 2-1 favourite by 2 1/2 lengths over <strong>Enemy (GB)</strong> (Muhaarar {GB}). It was the second consecutive year a Japanese runner&#8211;both incidentally bearing the silks of Shadai Race Horse Co.&#8211;has lifted the 3000-metre turf prize after Stay Foolish (Jpn) (Stay Gold {Jpn}) in 2022.</p>
<p>Before the race, the main talking horse had been Charlie Johnston's <strong>Subjectivist (GB)</strong> (Teofilo {Ire}), who, on his best day, loomed a formidable obstacle to his rivals. The 2021 G1 Gold Cup hero duly claimed pacesetting duties, while under the watchful eyes of Damian Lane and Silver Sonic just behind. <strong>Trawlerman (Ire)</strong> (Golden Horn {GB}) cruised up to stalk from second, and Lane was content to let his grey save ground against the fence.</p>
<p>Subjectivist displayed plenty of verve from the front, but his lengthy injury-induced break from the races began to take its toll and he appeared vulnerable 500 metres from home. Lane sent Silver Sonic, and he responded to take command by the head of the straight, before fending off the closing Enemy, who made his bid out in the centre of the course. It was another three-quarters of a length back to <strong>Get Shirty (Ire) </strong>(Teofilo {Ire}) in third. Subjectivist finished 12th. After the race, Enemy's rider Richard Kingscote weighed in lighter than allowed, but, after a stewards' inquiry, the result was allowed to stand.</p>
<p>Lane said, &#8220;I have had great support in Japan, especially the Shadai Race Horse Club. He began well, which is always important from barrier one. I was happy to track Subjectivist, who was always going to set a nice tempo and be a good horse to follow. I needed a bit of luck to get through but once it opened up he finished really well.&#8221;</p>
<p>Yasutoshi Ikee said, &#8220;This might be the second win for Japan, but it is a first win for me. This is a great achievement for me and I am very happy.</p>
<p>&#8220;I didn't talk tactics with Damien today. I brought Orfevre to the Arc twice but he ran second on both occasions, so winning a big race abroad with Orfevre's son, it is a great pleasure. My father trained Stay Gold, his sire's sire, so the feeling with this victory is so special.&#8221;</p>
<p>Joe Fanning, aboard Subjectivist, said after the race, &#8220;I felt he was keen enough, he has been off for a while and in the end he just got tired. As long as he's OK afterwards, I'm sure he'll be back.&#8221;</p>
<p>The Shadai Farm-bred 7-year-old entire did not finish May's G1 Tenno Sho (Spring) after losing jockey Yuga Kawada at the start, running with the field for the entire race and then bounding over a fence after the finish, but he bounced back to take the 3600-metre G2 Sports Nippon Sho Stayers S. over firm turf on Dec. 3 in his Riyadh warmup.</p>
<p>Silver Sonic will be trained with an eye to the 3200-metre G1 Tenno Sho back in Japan, or he will continue to ply his trade in the desert in the Mar. 25 G2 Dubai Gold Cup at Meydan Racecourse. He could face Saturday's runner-up Enemy once again in the latter.</p>
<p>&#8220;I'm very grateful to the people of the JCSA who received us so well,&#8221; Ikee added. &#8220;Silver Sonic travelled over really well and kept his condition, he has been the same as he is at home. We have two options, the Tenno Sho and the other is the Dubai Gold Cup.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;We knew the distance wouldn't be a problem,&#8221; Lane added. &#8220;I would never advise a trainer, but the Tenno Sho looks a good option. I'm just grateful to be a part of it all, it's a big thrill as a part of my career and I'm really enjoying it.&#8221;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h2><strong><em>Pedigree Notes</em></strong></h2>
<p>At stud, the Shadai Stallion Station-based dual Arc runner-up Orfevre has been represented by 25 stakes winners (20 group) led by four-time Group 1 winner Lucky Lilac (Jpn), one of a quartet of top-flight winners for the 15-year-old. Bred on the same Sunday Silence-Tony Bin (Ire) cross as standout stallion Heart's Cry (Jpn) (Deep Impact {Jpn}), Silver Sonic is part of a 36-strong legion of group winners for Tony Bin, who sired seven Group 1 scorers.</p>
<p>The well-credentialed Air Thule (Jpn) earned six victories over the course of four seasons racing, taking a stakes in her native land, third in Singapore's G3 KrisFlyer Sprint, as well as running second in the G1 Prix Maurice de Gheest in 2002. She struck gold with her first foal, the Fuji Kiseki (Jpn) filly Ultima Thule (Jpn), who won both the G2 Centaur S. and G3 Silk Road S. and is already a stakes producer, and the quality continued with her second, 2008 Japanese 2000 Guineas winner Captain Thule (Jpn) (Agnes Tachyon {Jpn}), who also captured two editions of the G3 Asahi Challenge Cup. In 2009, she delivered Crans Montana (Jpn) (Deep Impact {Jpn}), a stakes winner and Group 3-placed in Japan, and four years later that filly's full-sister, Contessa Thule (Jpn), who was third in the G1 Japanese 1000 Guineas in 2015. Silver Sonic is her 11th foal of 13, and one of 11 winners.</p>
<p>Air Thule's dam, Ski Paradise (Lyphard) was of the highest class in Europe, and scored in the G1 Prix du Moulin while placing in three other Grade/Group 1 events on both sides of the Atlantic. She is the ancestress of seven black-type horses. Royal Ski's Ski Goggle, successful in the 1983 GI Acorn S. and the third dam of Silver Sonic, left three other stakes winners in three countries who were all given a chance as sires in Ski Captain (Storm Bird), Ski Champ (Icecapade) and Ski Chief (Chief's Crown).</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>With primarily older runners drawn in for Thursday's G1 Tokyo Daishoten S. at Ohi Race Course, a field of 13, plus one mare, took to the dirt in an attempt to notch a well-earned victory.</p>
<p>The eventual winner, battle-tested <strong>Ushba Tesoro (Jpn)</strong> (Orfevre {Jpn}), came into the race sporting his most-successful campaign to-date. In 2022 alone, the 5-year-old has recorded stakes victories in three of his last four starts with the last one coming Nov. 27 at Hanshin Race Course by 2 1/2 lengths in the Canopus S.</p>
<p>Sent off at odds just above 3-1, the bay was content to race towards the back of the pack, as the field passed the grandstand. It was <strong>Shonan Nadeshiko (Jpn)</strong> (Orfevre {Jpn}) who planned to take them all the way, as the mare set the pace with <strong>Casino Fountain (Jpn)</strong> (Casino Drive) in close pursuit down the backstretch.</p>
<p>Around the far turn, it was time for the eventual winner to get moving, and he did just that by taking the overland route to the outside. That swinging motion allowed him to get clear of the fading leaders, and with good energy down the lane, he kicked for home en route to 1 3/4 length and his first G1 win. <strong>Notturno (Jpn)</strong> (Heart's Cry {Jpn}), one of the youngest runners in the bunch earned second; while, the short-priced favorite, <strong>Meisho Hario (Jpn)</strong> (Pyro) was forced to settle for third.</p>
<p><strong>Pedigree Notes:</strong><br />
Not only is the victor by a Horse of the Year, but his mare also comes from a strong family. She produced Casale (Jpn) in 2015, a filly by Manhattan Cafe (Jpn),that has $222,886 in earnings, and she was also bred back to the champion, which yielded a colt named Miyaji Hayakaze (Jpn) in 2016. Her last recorded live foal was Dantsu Capri (Jpn) (Mikki Isle {Jpn}) in 2019.<strong> Click for the </strong><a href="https://www.goracing.jp/english/upload/2022/40_tokyodaishoten/2022_TOKYODAISHOTEN_RESULT.pdf"><strong>chart</strong></a><strong> &amp; </strong><a href="http://keiba-lv-st.jp/movie/player?date=20221229&amp;race=9&amp;track=ooi"><strong>video</strong></a><strong>.</strong></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Japan celebrated its first-ever Breeders' Cup victory three races earlier with logical GI Breeders' Cup F/M Turf heroine Loves Only You (Jpn) (Deep Impact {Jpn}), and added a shocking tally in the GI Breeders' Cup Distaff as 45-1<strong> Marche Lorraine (Jpn) </strong>(Orfevre {Jpn})&#8211;also trained by Yoshito Yahagi&#8211;out-nosed 12-1 <strong>Dunbar Road </strong>(<a href="https://lanesend.com/qualityroad" class="horse-link">Quality Road</a>) after the pace completely fell apart. GI Kentucky Oaks heroine <strong>Malathaat </strong>(<a href="http://www.hillndalefarms.com/curlin/" class="horse-link">Curlin</a>) was third with a less-than-perfect trip, while heavily favored <strong>Letruska </strong>(Super Saver) never found her rhythm, chasing hot early fractions and backing out of it on the turn to finish second last.</p>
<p>Marche Lorraine won three of eight last term, all at the listed level, and kicked off her 2021 campaign with a pair of scores&#8211;in the TCK Jo-o Hai at Ooi in January and the Empress Hai at Kawasaki in March. She was third in Chukyo's G3 Heian S. against males over muddy ground in May, and eighth at 54-1 in the 10-panel Teio Sho June 30, again over a wet track and in open company back at Ooi. The bay entered this off a snug 1 1/4-mile victory in the Breeders' Gold Cup at Mombetsu Aug. 21, but looked a decided outsider on paper, and would've likely been tough for many take at less than 100-1, even with Sunday's <em>TDN </em>already in hand.</p>
<p>Marche Lorraine broke towards the back and was third last into the first turn as Letruska was beaten to the front by rail-drawn GII Zenyatta S. winner <strong>Private Mission</strong> (Into Mischief). They were clearly moving right along, and the splits were posted as :21.84, :44.97 and 1:09.70, with the crowd letting out audible gasps each time Larry Collmus announced another fraction. Letruska briefly took over entering the home turn, but last year's GI Kentucky Derby heroine <strong>Sherdaresthedevil</strong> (<a href="https://lanesend.com/daredevil" class="horse-link">Daredevil</a>) immediately pounced on her three deep and the closers were winding up to have their say. Marche Lorraine knifed through horses rapidly while joined by<strong> Royal Flag </strong>(<a href="https://lanesend.com/candyride" class="horse-link">Candy Ride</a> {Arg}) approaching the stretch, and had a slight edge as they straightened. Four foes had legitimate chances to run Marche Lorraine down in the final furlong, but she kept plugging away bravely to just find the line from a lunging <strong>Dunbar Rode </strong>down inside.</p>
<p>&#8220;I didn't know a whole lot about Marche Lorraine,&#8221; admitted British champion jockey Oisin Murphy. &#8220;Her trainer, Mr. [Yoshito] Yahagi, I ride a lot for in Japan and a fair bit for overseas. I've ridden for him in Dubai and Hong Kong. And he doesn't normally travel unless they have a chance&#8230; I tried to ignore her odds and just give her every chance in the run and hopefully she could finish off. And to be honest, we were obviously a hostage to fortune, I sat out the back, and they went quite quick. So we needed them to do that, but it was a brilliant performance.&#8221;</p>
<p>The winning conditioner's translator offered: &#8220;Traveling with [one filly] from Japan wasn't the ideal plan, and so Marche Lorraine was a good partner for Loves Only You. And Marche Lorraine had three victories over turf in Japan [further back in her form] and Mr. Yahagi was thinking that for horses to be competitive in the dirt in the U.S., need to have some sort of speed, which means like winning turf races in Japan.&#8221;</p>
<p>Owner U. Carrot Farm is a syndicate which has campaigned the likes of Group 1 winners Lei Papale (Jpn) (Deep Impact {Jpn}) and Lys Gracieux (Jpn) (Heart's Cry {Jpn}). Marche Lorraine has some 400 shareholders and the club syndicates approximately 50-70 horses per year.</p>
<p>It was a frustrating week for top trainer Chad Brown, who had to scratch two of his best Breeders' Cup hopes in Jack Christopher (<a href="https://coolmore.com/farms/america/stallions/munnings" class="horse-link">Munnings</a>) and Domestic Spending (GB) (<a href="https://bit.ly/36fNhlT" class="horse-link">Kingman</a> {GB}) before taking tough beats in both of the races won by the Japanese fillies.</p>
<p>&#8220;I need to watch the replay,&#8221; he said of Dunbar's Road's runner-up performance. &#8220;It's a tough beat. I thought we got the head bob, there. It's probably the toughest loss I've ever had. It's just a shame because it's two years in a row where she really should have won the Distaff. She got a bad trip last time too [when third]. No one can convince me otherwise. She had some trouble down the backside and she ended up on the inside where I really didn't want her. The track is better outside. It just happened that way. Jose [Ortiz] did the best he could and she gave a valiant effort. I'm really proud of her. It's a shame her career ended this way. I thought she was a deserving winner of this race.&#8221;</p>
<p>As for Letruska, who already seemed to have champion older mare honors in the bag before the Distaff, trainer Fausto Gutierrez said, &#8220;I think maybe she found the pace too fast. When it's :21 and :44, it's very difficult. When its :21 and :44, it's impossible to run with these fractions.&#8221;</p>
<p>Pilot Irad Ortiz, Jr. concurred: &#8220;They went too fast. They didn't want her to be on the lead. They went after her. She wants to run and I tried to slow her down as much as possible, but it didn't work out.&#8221;</p>

<p><strong>Pedigree Notes: </strong></p>
<p>Marche Lorraine is one of three highest-level winners, 12 graded/group winners and 15 stakes winners for her sire, but the first outside of Japan. Orfevre (Jpn) (Stay Gold {Jpn}) traveled with his talent as well, taking back-to-back runnings of the G2 Prix Foy in France in 2012 and 2013, only to settle for second in the G1 Prix de 'Arc de Triomphe both terms.</p>
<p>Broodmare sire French Deputy is now responsible for the dams of 15 Grade I/Group 1 winners from Asia, to Europe, to the U.S. and South America.</p>
<p>The dam of seven winners from as many to race, dam Vite Marcher is a daughter of MSW Kyoei March, making her a half to SW/MGSP Triumph March (Jpn) (Jpn) (Special Week {Jpn}). Vite Marcher produced a colt by Real Impact (Jpn) this term.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Japanese Champion Juvenile Filly <strong>Lucky Lilac</strong> (Orfevre {Jpn}) became just the fourth filly or mare to win consecutive G1 Queen Elizabeth II Cups with a neck victory at Hanshin on Sunday.</p>
<p>Favoured at 2-1, the 5-year-old was a tad sweated up over her withers before loading in the 18 post, but was able to secure a good position tucked back in 12th in the two path into the first turn. The grey <strong>Normcore (Jpn)</strong> (Harbinger {GB}), second choice in the wagering at 5-2, led the charge through splits of :23.70 for the first quarter and :47.20 for the opening half-mile, with six panels registered in 1:11.30. The field began to bunch inside the final 800 metres, but Lucky Lilac was already making steady progress up the outside at the 600-metre mark. She collared Normcore 300 metres out-as the solid fractions took their toll&#8211; and grimly held off all comers to register another success at the highest level by a neck. <strong>Salacia (Jpn)</strong> (Deep Impact {Jpn}) rallied from even farther back to take second, a neck to the good of the similarly rallying 2020 G1 Japanese Oaks heroine <strong>Loves Only You (Jpn)</strong> (Deep Impact {Jpn}).</p>
<p>&#8220;The outermost draw was a concern but we were able to race smoothly and advance our position from the third corner,&#8221; said hoop Christophe Lemaire, who was winning his 33rd Japanese Group 1 contest. &#8220;She was very composed and gave her usual turn of speed. We took the front early in the stretch but she held on well until the end. She&#8217;s a strong horse. She has been racing at the top level since her 2-year-old season and I had confidence in her.&#8221;</p>
<p>Named the 2017 Japanese Champion Juvenile Filly after a three-for-three campaign culminating in the G1 Hanshin Juvenile Fillies, Lucky Lilac quickly added the G2 Tulip Sho in her 3-year-old bow. Runner-up to subsequent Horse of the Year Almond Eye (Jpn) (Lord Kanaloa {Jpn}) in the G1 Japanese 1000 Guineas and third to the same foe in the G1 Japanese Oaks, the chestnut was unplaced in the G1 Japanese Fillies St Leger to that same rival in the fall of 2018. She made six starts as a 4-year-old, among them a win in the last term&#8217;s G1 Queen Elizabeth II Cup, and signed off with a good second in the G1 Hong Kong Vase at Sha Tin in December. This year, she resumed on Mar. 1 with a runner-up performance in the G2 Nakayama Kinen before adding the G1 Osaka Hai on Apr. 5. Unplaced in the G1 Takarazuka Kinen, Lucky Lilac rounded back into form with a third in the 2000-metre G2 Sapporo Kinen last out on Aug. 23.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong><em>Pedigree Notes</em></strong></p>
<p>A winner of the 2011 GI Ashland S., Lilacs and Lace is credited with eight foals, six of racing age and three winners. Since foaling Lucky Lilac, her third foal, Lilacs and Lace has thrown the winning 4-year-old colt Lahire (Jpn) (Deep Impact {Jpn}), 3-year-old filly Lelievre (Jpn) (Lord Kanaloa {Jpn}), the juvenile colt Grand Meteore (Jpn) (Daiwa Major {Jpn}) and full-siblings to the Queen Elizabeth II Cup victress, a filly in 2019 and a colt of this year.</p>
<p>Part of an outstanding extended family, Lucky Lilac&#8217;s third dam was four-time Grade I winner Stella Madrid (Alydar), herself a daughter of Eclipse Champion Sprinter My Juliet (Gallant Romeo). Stella Madrid, besides being a full-sister to GI Shuvee H. heroine Tis Juliet (Alydar), produced Japanese Champion Older Mare Diamond Biko (Jpn) (Sunday Silence), as well as G1SP Isle de France (Nureyev), ancestress of Japanese Champion Sprinter/Miler Mikki Isle (Jpn) (Deep Impact {Jpn}) and G1 NHK Mile Cup heroine Aerolithe (Jpn) (Kurofune).</p>
