Another great milestone in his career, to which there's been many highlights. -

Coolmore National Hunt stallion Mahler, who was twice champion point-to-point sire in Ireland, has died at the age of 21. “Mahler had a wonderful temperament and was a lovely horse to be around,” said Robert McCarthy of The Beeches Stud – home to the second-crop son of Galileo since his first season at stud in 2009 – in a statement issued by Coolmore on Saturday. “He has been a great servant over the years and will be sadly missed by everyone here at The Beeches, in particular by Yann, who has looked after him so well for the past few years and is absolutely heartbroken.” Bred by Pegasus Racing Ltd, Mahler developed into a smart stayer for Aidan O'Brien and the Coolmore partners after being bought for 140,000gns at the Tattersalls October Yearling Sale, notably winning the G3 Queen's Vase at Royal Ascot, before finishing second in the G1 St Leger at Doncaster and third in the G1 Melbourne Cup at Flemington. At stud, Mahler is perhaps best known as the sire of Grade 1-winning chasers such as The Real Whacker (Brown Advisory Novices' Chase) and Ornua (Maghull Novices' Chase), in addition to the multiple Grade 2 scorer Chris's Dream and the winner of this year's Fulke Walwyn Kim Muir Challenge Cup at the Cheltenham Festival, Daily Present. The statement added, “Mahler leaves behind a legacy that will be felt for many years in the National Hunt sphere.” The post Leading National Hunt Sire Mahler Dies at The Beeches Stud at 21 appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.

Caspar Fownes took home another feature race when Sky Trust resumed his improvement with a dominant performance to win the Class Two Ivy Handicap (1,200m) at Sha Tin on Saturday. Fownes’ So You Think galloper returned this campaign with a three-length success on wet going and was slapped with a 10lb rise as a result, but he ran with credit in two subsequent runs before returning to the winners’ enclosure in impressive fashion. One-out and one-back under French jockey Maxime Guyon, the pair...View the full article -

That’s before my time. It’s not all bad these days. I’ll bet you couldn’t have a bet on a race from Las Piedras Uruguay or Izmir Turkey back then.
