      Hill ‘n’ Dale’s Sikura Appointed To Thoroughbred Owners Of California Board

      By Wandering Eyes · Posted

      The board of directors of the Thoroughbred Owners of California (TOC) unanimously voted to appoint owner of Hill 'n' Dales Farms John Sikura to fill the vacant seat of Nick Alexander, subject to full board ratification at the upcoming Jan. 30 meeting, the owners group said via a Friday press release. “I have a great love for California racing dating to my youth attending Santa Anita with my father when Charlie Whittingham was our trainer,” said John Sikura. “I currently have horses with Bob Baffert, and I can think of no more important issue than the sustenance of California breeding and racing. We must face the challenges with courage and in collaboration with industry and political agencies that can help our quest. California is of historic importance to our industry and we must prevail.” To fulfill a TOC Bylaws requirement, Sikura will be required to run in the next election. “The TOC Board already reflects the full spectrum of California ownership… small owners, large owners, and California owner-breeders,” said TOC Chairman Gary Fenton. “By welcoming John, we add something new and critically important: a nationally respected owner-breeder with a broad, long-term perspective on the sport. John understands how California fits within the broader ecosystem of American racing, and his voice will help connect regions, align interests, and strengthen California's role in the sport's future.” The post Hill ‘n’ Dale’s Sikura Appointed To Thoroughbred Owners Of California Board appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.

      New Pleasant Acres Stallion Mr Fisk Has First Foal On The Ground

      By Wandering Eyes · Posted

      Pleasant Acres Stallions in Florida stands MGSW Mr Fisk (by Arrogate), who now has his first foal, a filly out of New York-bred Brass Cat (Bluegrass Cat), the farm said in a release on Friday. The new arrival hit the ground early on Friday morning at 3:25 a.m. ET for breeder Martine Britell. “Our beautiful Brass Cat has blessed us with another big, athletic baby,” said Martine Britell. “Paired with Mr Fisk's amazing bloodlines and triple-digit speed, we are excited for this filly's future!” By the gone-to-soon Arrogate, Mr Fisk won the GIII Native Diver Stakes at Del Mar for trainer Bob Baffert. The Sunny Brook Stables homebred also captured the GIII Californian Stakes and the GII Hollywood Gold Cup Stakes–both at Santa Anita. “A stallion's first foal is always a milestone, and this filly is exactly the kind of start you hope for,” said Director of Stallion Services at Pleasant Acres Stallions Christine Jones. “Mr Fisk has the race record, the physical and the pedigree depth we believe Florida breeders deserve. “He was a multiple graded stakes winner with triple-digit Beyer ability, and he brings the rare opportunity to access Arrogate's line along with a deep successful European female family,” she said. “This first foal is a great start and we can't wait to see what his first crop delivers for Florida breeders.” The post New Pleasant Acres Stallion Mr Fisk Has First Foal On The Ground appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.

      Hopeful Runner-Up Buetane Returns in San Vicente

      By Wandering Eyes · Posted

      Buetane (Tiz the Law), a $1.15-million OBS April breezer and distant runner-up in the GI Spendthrift Farm Hopeful S. at Saratoga last summer, headlines a field of five set for Saturday's GII San Vicente S. going seven furlongs at Santa Anita. The Zedan Racing Stables, Inc. colorbearer debuted with a 'TDN Rising Star, presented by Hagyard' performance at Del Mar Aug. 3. He finished 8 1/2 lengths behind fellow 'Rising Star' and unbeaten GI Breeders' Cup Juvenile winner Ted Noffey (Into Mischief) as the favorite last time out at the Spa over closing weekend. “He got beat by a really good horse,” Hall of Fame trainer Bob Baffert said. “(Buetane's) training really well. I think he should run well. We freshened him up.” Baffert has won the San Vicente a record 14 times, including five out of the last six renewals. He will also saddle the rail-drawn Greenwich Village (Quality Road), a debut winner at Los Alamitos Dec. 6. “He's fast,” Baffert said. “His race was impressive. He wasn't really ready to run and still won. I think every race will move him up considerably.” The San Vicente also includes So Happy (Runhappy), a 38-1 first-out winner for trainer Mark Glatt at Del Mar Nov. 22. Saturday's 10-race program at Santa Anita also features the re-scheduled $100,000 Santa Ynez S. for 3-year-old fillies, led by GI Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies runner-up Explora (Blame) and GI Del Mar Debutante winner Bottle of Rouge (Vino Rosso). Both are trained by Baffert. There are two additional graded stakes at Santa Anita Sunday, the GIII Las Flores S. and GIII Las Cienegas S., respectively.
