Making Waves: Preliminary On The Rise

In this series, the TDN takes a look at notable successes of European-based sires in North America. This week's column covering Mar. 15-21, is highlighted by the victory of new 'TDN Rising Star' Preliminary (GB) (Lope De Vega {Ire}) in a maiden special weight at Gulfstream Park.

Seth Klarman's Klaravich Stables already celebrated the victory of Equitize this past week, and the white-and-red-striped colours were back in the limelight with the 'TDN Rising Star'-worthy performance of Preliminary in the ninth race in Hallandale Beach on Thursday for trainer Chad Brown (video). The 11th 'Rising Star' for her Ballylinch Stud-based sire, the filly shares the same connections and sire as fellow 'Rising Star' and GI Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies heroine Newspaperofrecord (Ire).

A 1 1/2-length scorer, the 250,000 gns Tattersalls October Book 1 yearling displayed a scintillating turn of foot and is the third winner from three foals out of the Dream Ahead mare Lipstick Rose (Ire). Her juvenile half-sister Pink Fizz (GB) (Masar {Ire}) hailed from the Hillwood Stud consignment during last year's October Sale, and was bought for 32,000gns, while her yearling half-brother is by fellow Ballylinch resident New Bay (GB). Preliminary, bred by Stone Roses Bloodstock, is kin to GI Hollywood Gold Cup S. hero and sire Mast Track (Mizzen Mast), as well as G1 Prix Saint-Alary heroine Jemayel (Ire) (Lope De Vega {Ire}), and the group winners Ready To Act (More Than Ready) and Sound Money (Flatter).

Already a Making Waves series regular, Lope De Vega is enjoying a purple patch during the current winter racing season. Of his 17 American runners since Jan. 1, four (23%) have won. Two of their number are 'TDN Rising Stars', with Preliminary joining eFive Racing's Carl Spackler (Ire), and the GIII Honey Fox S. going to fellow Klaravich runner Faith In Humanity (Fr). A third 'Rising Star', Wertheimer et Frere's Algolia (Fr), earned her badge at Chantilly on Mar. 7.

All Else Being Equal

Few horses are as well-bred as Equitize (GB) (Kingman {GB}), who is out of a New Approach (Ire) half-sister to 2019 Arc hero and Ballylinch Stud stallion Waldgeist (GB) (Galileo {Ire}), and the Klaravich Stables colt stormed home to win a 1 1/16-mile Tampa Bay grass affair as the even-money favourite by 2 1/4 lengths at first asking for Chad Brown last Wednesday (video).

The first foal out of G2 Prix de Malleret heroine Waldlied (GB), Equitize was bred by Newsells Park and Gestut Ammerland. Part of the Newsells Park draft at the 2021 Tattersalls October Yearling Sale, the Book 1 alum brought 425,000 gns. His 2-year-old half-sister is by Siyouni (Fr) and hammered for 600,000gns to David Redvers as a Tattersalls October yearling, while Waldlied's latest is a full-sister to the winner.

After her racing career, Waldlied was a 2.2 million gns purchase by Jill Lamb on behalf of new Newsells Park Stud principal Graham Smith-Bernal to dissolve a partnership. Second dam Waldlerche (GB) (Monsun {Ger}) claimed the G3 Prix Penelope, and she, in turn, is a half-sister to G1 St Leger hero and sire Masked Marvel (GB) (Montjeu {Ire}).

Just since the start of the year through Tuesday, Juddmonte's Kingman has had 13 runners and five winners (38%) Stateside. Four of the five have joined the winners' ranks with victories at either Gulfstream Park or Tampa Bay Downs.

Top O' The Heath

Heathguard (Saxon Warrior {Jpn}), third in his Tampa debut in February, found state-bred competition more to his liking and ran out a one-length winner going a mile on the grass in a Gulfstream Park maiden special weight on Thursday (video).

A homebred under trainer Roy Lerman's Lambholm Stable name, the Apr. 4-born colt was a $75,000 buyback out of the OBS March Sale. From the first crop of Coolmore Stud resident Saxon Warrior, Heathguard is the second foal and first winner out of his dam, GIII Long Island H. victress Evidently (Smart Strike). The 12-year-old mare has a 2-year-old filly by City Of Light, a yearling filly by Omaha Beach, and she visited Hard Spun last spring. The extended family features GI Philip H. Iselin H. victor Taking Risks (Two Punch).

Coolmore Stud's Saxon Warrior sired his second U.S. winner with Heathguard on Thursday. His first, the GI Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf star Victoria Road (Ire), is one of three group winners worldwide, and his three other stakes horses are all placed at group level. Looking strictly at his progeny's American performances, he now has two winners from three runners (67%), with Freydis The Red (Fr) placing at both Saratoga and last autumn's Belmont at the Big A meeting at Aqueduct.

Red Is The Colour For Showcasing Filly

Roy and Gretchen Jackson's Lael Stables silks were carried to victory by Panama Red (Ire) (Showcasing {GB}) in a 1 1/16-mile Tampa Bay allowance optional claimer on Friday (video). Already a listed winner in Ireland, it was the Arnaud Delacour trainee's second start in America, after running fourth in the GIII Endeavour S. in early February. The Jacksons bred and raced 2007 GI Kentucky Derby hero Barbaro (Dynaformer), and bred George Washington (Ire) (Danehill), who won the G1 2000 Guineas on the same day for the Coolmore partners.

David and Henrietta Egan of Corduff Stud and Farmleigh Bloodstock, Ltd. are listed as breeders of the Mar. 21 foal, who brought 70,000gns at Tattersalls as a yearling. Put into training with Ger Lyons for the Against All Odds Partnership, the chestnut broke her maiden at the third attempt in the August of her juvenile season. A stakes winner next out in the Listed Ingabelle S. at Leopardstown over seven furlongs, Panama Red was given a lengthy break, and, although highly regarded by her connections, finished midfield in a trio of group races in the spring of 2022, among them the Irish 1000 Guineas. Given some class relief, Panama Red was runner-up in a pair of Killarney listed stakes in July and August, respectively, before being acquired privately.

The winner is one of three from four to race for her placed dam, who has a Profitable (Ire) juvenile filly and an Acclamation (GB) yearling colt still to come. Although the family has celebrated group success in Australia and France, its biggest claim to fame is that G3 Prix de Flore heroine Allez Les Trois (Riverman), the third dam of Panama Red, is a half-sister to none other than breed-shaper Urban Sea (Miswaki), winner of the Arc and dam of stallion greats Galileo (Ire) and Sea The Stars (Ire).

The Whitsbury Manor Stud stallion Showcasing has accumulated a respectable record, and the sire of 63 stakes winners internationally is responsible for 10 winners from 20 runners Stateside (50%). Four of those 20 (20%) are black-type winners led by Grade II winners Prize Exhibit (GB), Projected (GB) and Bodhicitta (GB). Both Prize Exhibit and Bodhicitta also have Grade I placings to their names, and another filly, current 3-year-old and 'TDN Rising Star' Dramatised (Ire) who won Royal Ascot's G2 Queen Mary S., was second in the GI Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf Sprint at Keeneland last fall.

Making Waves: Ain’t No Mountain High Enough

Our series featuring notable success for European sires in North America, with this week's highlight being the victory of Grade I winner Shantisara (Ire) (Coulsty {Ire}) in the GII Hillsborough S. at Tampa Bay Downs.

Madaket Stables, Michael Dubb and Robert LaPenta's Shantisara is no stranger to the winner's circle, and the 2021 GI Queen Elizabeth II Challenge Cup S. heroine secured her first victory since 2021 with a 1 1/4-length triumph in the Hillsborough S. on Saturday (video).

Now a 5-year-old, the mare was bred by Oliver Donlon, and sold for 10,000gns as a Tattersalls Guineas Breeze-Up graduate in 2020. Sent to the yard of Daniele Zarroli, she made her first two starts for Ladritta SRL, winning her second, a Chantilly maiden claimer by five lengths in November of 2020. After taking a 2000-metre conditions race in December for Frederic Rossi in the colours of Patrick Dreux, she was runner-up in another conditions race, and Sol Kumin bought her before racing her once in his silks with Rossi to an eighth-place finish in the Listed Prix de la Californie on Valentine's Day in 2021.

With LaPenta and Michael Dubb added as owners, Shantisara triumphed in the GIII Pucker Up S. for Chad Brown at Arlington Park that August, before taking the Jockey Club Oaks Invitational S. in New York and her Keeneland Grade I later that autumn. Defeated by subsequent Eclipse champion Regal Glory (Animal Kingdom) in the GI Jenny Wiley S. at Keeneland in April, she returned with a fifth in the Fall Harvest S. there. Shantisara was second in the GIII Pegasus Wold Cup Filly & Mare Turf Invitational on Jan. 28 prior to the Hillsborough.

The only foal to make it to the races for Kharana (Ire) (Dalakhani {Ire}), who died in 2020, Shantisara is a granddaughter of the stakes-winning Khanata (Riverman), who was third in the G2 Pretty Polly S., while this is also the female family of champion and notable sire High Chaparral (Ire) (Sadler's Wells).

The Hillsborough heroine is one of three winners from three to race Stateside for Rathasker Stud stallion Coulsty. Of the other two, Coulthard (Ire) placed third in the GIII Green Flash H. at Del Mar.

The Doctor Is In

'TDN Rising Star' Dr Zempf (GB) (Dark Angel {Ire}) made his American bow a winning one in an allowance optional claimer at Gulfstream Park on Friday (video). The Peter Brant colourbearer stamped his sigil on the 7 1/2-furlong turf contest by 2 1/2 lengths. It was the 4-year-old gelding's fourth win in 10 starts.

Consigned by breeder Chris Wright's Stratford Place Stud to the Tattersalls October Yearling Sale Book 1, the grey caught the eye of Demi O'Byrne, who signed on behalf of Brant's White Birch Farm to the tune of 420,000gns. Ger Lyons saddled Dr Zempf to a 2 1/4-length 'Rising Star'-worthy tally over yielding going at the Curragh in June of 2021, and he was not disgraced when fourth in the G2 Railway S. there later in the month. Less than a length off of Ebro River (Ire) (Galileo Gold {GB}) in the G1 Phoenix S., Dr Zempf was unplaced behind Perfect Power (Ire) (Ardad {Ire}) in the G1 Middle Park S. at Newmarket.

Back to winning ways at listed level at Leopardstown last April, he earned his first Group 3 badge with a two-length score in the Ballycorus S. two starts later on June 9. Third to 2020 GI Breeders' Cup Mile winner Order Of Australia (Ire) (Australia {GB}) in the G2 Minstrel S. in July, Dr Zempf lost all chance in his final European appearance when rearing at the beginning of the G2 City Of York S. and trailed in eighth behind subsequent 2022 Breeders' Cup Mile third Kinross (GB) (Kingman {GB}). Gelded over the winter and switched to the Chad Brown barn, Friday was his first start in over 180 days.

Out of G3 Prix Eclipse heroine Souvenir Delondres (Fr) (Siyouni {Fr}), Dr Zempf is followed by the 3-year-old filly Visiting Hours (GB) (Kingman {GB}) and a juvenile colt named Phoenix Passion (Ire) (Too Darn Hot {GB}). From the same clan as G1 Sussex S. winner and sire Noalcoholic (Fr) (Nonoalco), Phoenix Passion was picked up by George Gill's Opulence Thoroughbreds for 125,000gns out of the Tattersalls October Yearling Sale Book 2.

Yeomanstown Stud's kingpin Dark Angel sports a record of 23 winners from 41 to race (56%) in the U.S., and 12 stakes horses (29%). Five of his progeny have won stakes Stateside (12% of 41 runners), led by three-time Grade I winner and Gainesway sire Raging Bull (Fr), dual Grade I winner Althiqa (GB), and GI Shoemaker Mile S. hero Hunt (Ire).

Zoffany Colt Game Over KY All-Weather

The much-missed Zoffany (Ire)'s Dark Side (Ire) found a 1 1/16th all-weather contest to his liking at Turfway Park on Friday (video), eking out a slim neck victory in the Qatar Racing colours. It was the first start in America for the Brendan Walsh trainee.

A product of Ann Marshall and Frank Dunne's Hamwood Stud Unlimited Company in Ireland, Dark Side hammered for 125,000gns to David Redvers, the racing manager for Qatar Racing, as part of Book 2 of the Tattersalls October Yearling Sale in 2021. Consigned by Bill Dwan and Andrew Mead's The Castlebridge Consignment, he was the third most expensive Zoffany yearling to be offered at that year's Tattersalls October Sale.

Put into training with Joseph O'Brien, the Feb. 28 foal was second on debut at Cork in September, and was later sixth in a hot Curragh maiden on Sept. 25 behind future G1 Criterium International second Espionage (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) and runner-up Sierra Blanca (Ire) (No Nay Never), who was subsequently second to Cairo (Ire) (Quality Road) in the G3 Killavullan S. a month later. In his final Irish start, Dark Side was second again over 8 1/2 furlongs back at Gowran Park on Oct. 18.

Dark Side is one of four winners for his dam Shreyas (Ire) (Dalakhani {Ire}), who won a Group 3 in Ireland as a 3-year-old, and would later add a pair of listed victories and two more group placings at four. Her 2-year-old filly Porters Place (Ire) (Make Believe {GB}) most recently sold for 70,000gns to Paddy Twomey as a Tattersalls October Book 2 yearling, and her latest offspring is a full-sister to Porters Place. He is kin to Group 1 winners and sires Youmzain (Ire), Creachadoir (Ire), and Pilsudski (Ire).

Zoffany's American strike rate stands at 25 winners from 51 runners (49%). There are also four stakes winners from those 51 (8%) for the late Coolmore sire, led by GII Hollywood Turf Cup hero Oscar Dominguez (Ire), GIII Marshua's River S. heroine Zofelle (Ire), and Zoffarelli (Ire), who won the GIII La Jolla H.

Shades Of Violet In Florida

Juddmonte stallion and GI Breeders' Cup Mile hero Expert Eye (GB) gained his third American winner with Violet Gibson (Ire) in her very first start at Gulfstream Park on Saturday (video). Trained by Saffie Joseph, Jr., the Mike Ryan homebred came calling late to win the 7 1/2-furlong affair over the firm turf by a head.

Bred in Ireland by Ryan's St. Croix Bloodstock, Violet Gibson is out of the unplaced Soul Of Houdini (Perfect Soul {Ire}), responsible for five winners from five to race, counting Saturday's scorer. Tracing to bluehen Coup De Folie (Halo) (Coup De Genie, Machiavellian, Exit To Nowhere, Hydro Calido, etc.), Soul Of Houdini's latest is a yearling filly also by a Juddmonte stallion in Bated Breath (GB).

Through Monday, Expert Eye, who has his first 3-year-olds this term, has 29 winners from 70 runners worldwide (41%) with the Flat season just around the corner. Joining Violet Gibson and Saturday's winning listed stakes second Beautifulnavigator (Ire) as his third winner of three runners Stateside (100%) is Isabel Alexandra (Ire), who landed a maiden special weight in Indiana last autumn.

Tampa Bay Royalty

Seth Klarman's Klaravich Stables celebrated a winner at Tampa Bay Downs in the form of Royalty Interest (Fr) (Le Havre {Ire}) (video). The daughter of listed winner Dusky Queen (Ire) (Shamardal) was making her racetrack debut in Saturday's finale–a one-mile turf race, where she exploded away in the stretch to win by 3 1/4 lengths for Klarman's go-to trainer Chad Brown.

Bred by China Horse Club International in France and consigned by Henri Bozo's Ecurie des Monceaux, the bay was picked up for €50,000 out of the 2021 Arqana Deauville October Yearling Sale. She is the third winner from three to race for Dusky Queen, herself a half-sister to two stakes horses, including the three-time grade/group-placed Achnaha (Ire) (Haatef). Royalty Interest's juvenile full-brother brought €10,000 out of the same sale last year from the buying entity the Six of Us, and she also has a Siyouni (Fr) yearling half-brother.

The late Le Havre, who stood at Sumbe's Haras de Montfort et Preaux before passing away last March, has a strong record Stateside. Eight of his 18 runners have won (44%), and another three have gained black-type laurels (16% of runners) in America. All three have ticked the graded stakes box, led by Suedois (Fr) in the GI Turf Mile S. at Keeneland, four-time graded heroine Rymska (Fr), and GIII Red Carpet H. victress Orglandes (Fr). The latter pair were also trained by Brown.

Honourable Mention

The breeze-up sales are nearly here, and lot 44 in the Tattersalls Craven Sale received an update last week, when his older half-brother, The Right Stuff (GB) (Sea The Stars {Ire}), posted a 3 3/4-length victory for Holly and David Wilson in an allowance optional claimer at Turf Paradise.

O’Connell Moves Ahead as Winningest Female Trainer

With her victory in the fifth race at Tampa Bay Downs Sunday, Kathleen O'Connell surpassed Kim Hammond to become the winningest female trainer in North America. My Eagle Soars (Khozan) became O'Connell's 2,386th winner when he crossed the line first in the six-furlong maiden claimer.

“It's just been a wonderful ride,” O'Connell said of her training career. “It's not only about the destination, it's the journey getting there.”

O'Connell, who began training on her own in 1981, has twice been the leading trainer at Tampa Bay Downs. She also won a title at Calder. She currently trains about 60 horses between Tampa Bay Downs and Gulfstream Park.

She has won nine graded stakes, three from 1997-2000 by Blazing Sword, as well as the 2011 GII Tampa Bay Derby with Watch Me Go; the 2003 GII Bonnie Miss S. with Ivanavinalot; the 2019 GIII Sam F. Davis S. with Well Defined; and back-to-back runnings of the GII Princess Rooney in 2018 and 2019 with Stormy Embrace.

Hammond, who has yet to win a race in 2023 from 16 starts, will have a chance to go back into a tie with O'Connell when she saddles a runner in the fifth race at Turfway Park Friday.

Tapit Trice Turns In Furious Stretch Rally To Win Tampa Bay Derby

At almost no point during the opening 6 1/2 furlongs of Saturday's GIII Lambholm South Tampa Bay Derby did things look particularly promising for Whisper Hill Farm and Gainesway Stable's heavily favored Tapit Trice (Tapit).

But in a stretch rally befitting his status as a 'TDN Rising Star', the $1.3-million Keeneland September graduate went through his gears and whistled home to–somewhat unbelievably–post an open-lengths victory over Classic Car Wash (Noble Bird) and Classic Legacy (Into Mischief), the third- and fourth-place finishers, respectively, in the GIII Sam F. Davis S. four weeks back.

One of the last to take up his spot in stall six, Tapit Trice was sluggishly into stride, was clearly last through the opening exchanges and was niggled along by Luis Saez before the field had entered the clubhouse turn. Longshot Dreaming of Kona (Fast Anna) took them into the backstretch, but as the half-mile went up in :46.96, Tapit Trice was under even heavier urging three off the fence and Saez even had to resort to a right-handed slap of the crop down the neck of his mount to keep his mind on the increasingly tall task at hand.

Still scrubbed along vigorously at the three-eighths marker and racing with just three rivals behind him at that stage, Tapit Trice was wheeled out about seven wide into the stretch, with plenty of work to do. Classic Car Wash, four wide the trip, came calling for the lead outside of Dreaming of Kona just inside the eighth pole, but Tapit Trice finally hit top gear, wrested command with 70 yards to race and remarkably put a margin on the competition.

“It took him a while to get on track but I was very impressed down the lane,” said Pletcher, winning the race for a record-extending sixth time. “He finished up the way we expected him to. He certainly seems like the farther he goes, the stronger he gets. He's got a big, long stride. Once he got clear down the lane, he really extended himself and I loved the way he finished up. He relished the two turns and the longer he goes, the better he'll get.

Pletcher continued, “Luis fits him well. He understands the way he needs to be ridden and he knows he's not going to come out of the gate quickly. He gave him plenty of time to get going. I feel like he is still learning, though he got a good education today. But he's a horse that I think still needs a little more racing experience to completely put everything together.”

Pletcher indicated that Tapit Trice's final Kentucky Derby prep could come in the GI Toyota Blue Grass S. at Keeneland Apr. 8.

Tapit Trice becomes the 100th worldwide graded/group winner for his Gainesway-based stallion. He is the fourth son of Tapit to win this particular Derby, joining Ring Weekend (2014), the Pletcher-conditioned future GI Belmont S. hero and now fellow Gainesway sire Tapwrit (2017) and Tacitus (2019).

“Thanks to Mandy Pope for letting me stay in on this lovely colt,” said Tapit Trice's breeder, Gainesway's Antony Beck. “We knew he is a very talented colt and we thought he had a very good chance today.”

Added Pope: “It was awesome–just the whole team from Whisper Hill Farm, Gainesway, Todd Pletcher–it takes a mountain of people to be in this position, but the horse is the one who did it. I lost track of him in the race and thought he was never going to make it up, but once he got free he ate up the ground.”

A useful third on his one-mile debut at Aqueduct the day after the Breeders' Cup Nov. 6, Tapit Trice defeated next-out winner and recent GIII Gotham S. runner-up Slip Mahoney (Arrogate) in a muddy mile event in South Ozone Park Dec. 17. Despite earning a lofty 87 Beyer for that effort, Tapit Trice was the somewhat surprising 13-10 second choice behind 9-10 stable companion Shesterkin (Violence) in a Feb. 4 allowance at Gulfstream, in which he turned on the afterburners in the lane to score by eight lengths.

Pedigree Notes:

Also a 159th black-type winner for his sire, Tapit Trice is bred on the exact same cross as two-time Eclipse Award and three-time Grade I winner Unique Bella, Grade II winner West Coast Belle and Grade III victor Capensis. Additional graded winners by Tapit out of Unbridled-line mares include Valiance and the aforementioned Tacitus.

The winner's now 11-year-old dam, a $5,500 Keeneland November weanling and $10,000 Fasig-Tipton October Yearling, was knocked down to Gainesway for $105,000 at the 2014 OBS April Sale and went on to be a three-time stakes and Grade III-placed winner of better than $312,000 while under the care of Steve Asmussen. She visited Union Rags in her first year at stud in 2018 and saw her and her family's value appreciate when her three-quarter sister Jaywalk (Cross Traffic) earned an Eclipse Award with her victory in that year's GI Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies. Jaywalk's first foal, a now 2-year-old colt by the late Duramente (Jpn), was sold for ¥300 million (US$2,205,927) at last year's JRHA Select Sale.

Hailing from the female family of the capable graded winners Mission Impazible and Forest Camp, Tapit Trice has 2-year-old and yearling full-sisters and Danzatrice was unsurprisingly bred back to Tapit.
