Daughter of Uncle Mo Rolls in Del Mar Unveiling

1st-Del Mar, $61,000, Msw, 11-12, 2yo, f, 6f, 1:10.31, ft, 3 1/4 lengths.
GRAZIA (f, 2, Uncle Mo–Tonasah {MGSP, $196,660}, by Malibu Moon), installed the hot 2-5 choice for this unveiling, broke alertly and was up to hound Girl of My Dreams (Kantharos) through an opening quarter in :22.26. Pulling on even terms with the early pacesetter exiting the far turn, Grazia inched ahead rounding the final turn, dispensed of that rival in early stretch and was 3 1/4 lengths clear of She's a Tempest (Connect) at the wire. The winner is a half to Union Gables (Speightstown), GSP, $115,980. Out of MGSP Tonasah, Grazia also has a year-younger brother by Munnings and a foal sister by American Pharoah. Sales history: $350,000 Ylg '22 KEESEP. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $36,600. Click for the Equibase.com chart or VIDEO, sponsored by FanDuel TV.

Goldencents Colt Breaks Maiden In Style At Churchill

4th-Churchill Downs, $121,125, Msw, 11-12, 2yo, 5 1/2f, 1:03.27, ft, 7 3/4 lengths.
MYSTIK DAN (c, 2, Goldencents–Ma'am, by Colonel John) broke quickly in his debut Oct. 22 at Keeneland, but lost the lead down the lane to finish second. Tabbed as the 4-5 choice here, the bay colt tracked the pacesetter from second up the backstretch. Making his move to the outside around the far turn, the Ken McPeek trainee built up a head of steam and really poured it on to win by 7 3/4 lengths over Eusebius (City of Light). Out of an extended female family which includes MGSW Summer Front (War Front) and his half-sister GISW Laragh (Tapit), the winner's dam is responsible for a yearling filly named Yes Ma'am (Unified) and foaled filly Apr. 2 Ford's Ma'am (Knicks Go). She was not bred for next year. Lifetime Record: 2-1-1-0, $87,500. Click for the Equibase.com chart or VIDEO, sponsored by FanDuel TV.

Abel Cedillo To Winter At Turfway Park

Jockey Abel Cedillo will pack up his tack from Del Mar and move east for the winter to Turfway Park for their meeting that starts Nov. 29. He has every intention of returning to the seaside oval next summer, but says the timing just seemed right to try something new.

“I just want to go because I've never gone out of California,” Cedillo says. “I'm still young so I don't want to wait until I'm too old to make the move. I'll take my chance right now.”

Cedillo, who has captured riding titles at Golden Gate, Santa Anita and Del Mar, returned to racing after a riding accident sidelined him early during this summer's Del Mar meet. He suffered a broken bone in his neck and was sidelined for the remainder of the meet. He avoided having surgery and instead went through a rigorous rehab.

“It took six weeks,” Cedillo says. “I was working out in the gym by myself and doing my routine. Sometimes in the morning I get up and I'm a little sore. But soon as I start working I feel better. I feel a hundred percent now.”

TAA Hosts Second Annual Holiday Giving Campaign

The Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance will host its second annual Holiday Giving Campaign beginning Nov. 28 and running through Dec. 31. The 2023 campaign, designed to increase awareness for accredited Thoroughbred aftercare and to raise funds for the accredited organizations responsible for ensuring a quality life for equine athletes after their racing careers, is set to follow the success of last year's inaugural campaign which raised over $180,000.

“Our Thoroughbred horses provide us with so much, and each donation to the campaign goes a long way in supporting a network of 86 accredited organizations. Our organizations do an amazing job of taking care of the retired racehorses, so as we prepare for the holiday season, I hope that we can all simplify our gift giving and donate to Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance,” said TAA President Jeffrey Bloom.

Throughout the campaign, Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance will announce new daily match sponsors with some of the most prominent names in racing. Each sponsor will match all donations up to a specified amount for his or her day. Match sponsors will be announced daily in various industry publications along with the Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance website, social media, and email. Individuals interested in donating can do so here beginning Nov. 28.
