Not sure that having 4 meetings on in NZ is a great reason to have 40 minutes between races? Harness punters with any sense are not wagering on gallops meeting in Winter in NZ! Run the meetings on different channels so that they are not overlapping each other, it is not that difficult? Look at the way they do it in Ozzie, and we do not need to have all these crap meetings from around the world that no one has heard of!!!! -

Observations on the European Racing Scene turns the spotlight on the best European races of the day, highlighting well-bred horses early in their careers, horses of note returning to action and young runners that achieved notable results in the sales ring. Friday's Observations features a full-sister to a Breeders' Cup winner. 3.35 York, Novice, 2yo, f, 5fT STARGAZED (GB) (Zoustar {Aus}) is a full-sister to last year's GI Breeders' Cup Turf Sprint hero Starlust who debuts for Clipper Logistics and the Karl Burke stable. Out of the G3 Prix de Saint-Georges winner and G2 Lowther Stakes runner-up Beyond Desire (Invincible Spirit), she faces seven in this speed test. 4.52 Cork, Mdn, 2yo, f, 6fT SKYDANCE (GB) (Night Of Thunder {Ire}) was a €1 million purchase by Al Shira'aa Racing at last year's Arqana August Sale who debuts for the Willie McCreery stable in the maiden won 12 months ago by the future luminary Babouche. A daughter of the G3 Prix de Lutece winner Paix (Muhaarar) connected to a host of stars including Magic Wand and Chicquita, she faces a tough task taking on Ballydoyle's experience Beautify (Ire) (Wootton Bassett {GB}), a daughter of the G3 Munster Oaks winner Words (Dansili).

After significant rain over the Belmont Stakes Racing Festival held last weekend at Saratoga Race Course, four of the graded races scheduled for the grass were moved to the dirt. The American Graded Stakes Committee automatically downgrades those races by one level–for that edition only–and reviews the runnings for the possibility of each race being restored to its original grade. None of the four graded races moved off the grass over the weekend at Saratoga had their original grade reinstated after review, according to a release from the American Graded Stakes Committee Thursday afternoon. The races affected last Friday and Saturday included the Belmont Gold Cup Stakes, won by 'TDN Rising Star' Parchment Party (Constitution), and downgraded from Grade II to Grade III, as well as the Wonder Again Stakes, won by Nitrogen (Medaglia d'Oro) and also downgraded from Grade II to Grade III. The Pennine Ridge Stakes, won by A. P. Kid (Honor A. P.) and the Soaring Softly Stakes, won by Saturday Flight (Mendelssohn), have lost graded status and will retain listed status.

A son of Crystal Ocean (lot 703) took pride of place during Part 2 of the Goffs Arkle Sale on Thursday. The gelding, from the Woodhouse Stud draft, caught the eye of Gerry Hogan Bloodstock and Paul Nolan Racing and was secured for €70,000. Out of a full-sister to Grade 3 hurdle winner Cup Final (Presenting), the 3-year-old store is a grandson of multiple Grade 1-winning hurdler Asian Maz (Anshan). Of the 229 horses offered, 176 (77%) sold for an aggregate of €3,192,500 (+42%). The average rose 20% to €18,140 and the median increased 14% to €16,000. “Following a sensational Arkle Part 1 we were hopeful that today would return a vibrant trade and are pleased to have delivered a set of results that show improvement in every area,” said Goffs Group chief executive Henry Beeby. “Arkle Part 2 is a viable and attractive alternative to the last two days and, of course, also has a strong record in the point-to-point field. An upswing in turnover, average, median and clearance rate is encouraging albeit these returns are at a lower level and a 77% clearance rate, whilst much better than last year, continues to point to a selectivity in places that has been increasingly evident away from the top in recent times.” The post Goffs Arkle Part 2 Concludes With €70k Crystal Ocean Topper appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.

Baoma Corp.'s HIMIKA (f, 2, Curlin–Motivated Seller, by Into Mischief), a $900,000 purchase out of this year's OBS April Sale, looked in a bit of trouble through the opening three panels of a five-furlong maiden at Santa Anita Thursday. But when Juan Hernandez was able to push away from the inside and with dead aim on pacesetting Stuffy Mist (Maximus Mischief), the athletic bay gathered that one up with ease a few strides later and whistled home to score by the better part of seven lengths, ears back and forth and up and down on the wire, to become a no-brainer 'TDN Rising Star'. Drawn the fence, the firming 1-2 chalk was away neatly enough, but couldn't quite go with the early gallop and was forced to sit behind and wait for room. That daylight came as soon as heads were turned for home and Himika had soon built a massive advantage, then was taken in hand for the better part of the last sixteenth of a mile, stopping the clock in :57.84–and that could have been significantly faster had Hernandez so chosen. Bred by Klaravich Stable, Himika breezed an eighth in :9 4/5 at the April Sale and caught the eye of Donato Lanni, who signed the winning ticket on behalf of Baoma. The bay had done little wrong in her morning trials locally, and in her final breeze, went heads up with Nothing Like You (Malibu Moon), the 2024 GII Santa Anita Oaks heroine, through four furlongs from the gate in :46 4/5. Sales history: $900,000 2yo '25 OBSAPR. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0. O-Baoma Corp; B-Klaravich Stable Inc (KY); T-Bob Baffert.
