      Grade I Winner Forbidden Apple Passes Away

      By Wandering Eyes · Posted

      Forbidden Apple (Pleasant Colony–North of Eden {Ire}, by Northfields), a Grade I winner of nearly $1.7 million, passed away shortly after turning 30 years old at the end of May at TRF Second Chances at Lowell, where he resided since 2013. One of a number of top-class horses bred by Arthur Appleton from North of Eden–a half-sister to champion Theatrical (Ire)–Forbidden Apple was trained throughout his career by the late Christophe Clement, making all but one of his 31 starts on the grass. After posting the first graded success of his career in the GII Belmont Cup Breeders' Cup Handicap, he registered his lone top-level victory in the 2001 Manhattan Handicap over 10 furlongs and added the GII Kelso Handicap ahead of a runner-up effort to Val Royal (Fr) in that year's GI Breeders' Cup Mile at Belmont Park. Runner-up in defense of the Manhattan in 2002, he was third and beaten a head in three-way go in that year's GI Arlington Million. Also fourth in back-to-back runnings of the G1 Hong Kong Mile, Forbidden Apple retired with a record of 8-6-9 from his 31 trips to the post for earnings of $1,680,640. A half-brother to champion Paradise Creek (Irish River {Fr}) and GISW Wild Event (Wild Again)–later a perennial leading sire in Brazil–Forbidden Apple entered stud at Appleton's Bridlewood Farm near Ocala. From limited runners, he was responsible for Worstcasescenario, winner of the 2009 GII Adirondack Stakes.

      ‘I’ve Never Had A Two-Year-Old Filly Like Her’: Burke Lauds Albany Heroine Venetian Sun

      By Wandering Eyes · Posted

      Tony Bloom and Ian McAleavy's once-raced Carlisle maiden winner Venetian Sun (Starman) fulfilled the role of spoiler with aplomb and the Karl Burke trainee prevented a Ballydoyle clean sweep of Royal Ascot's juvenile pattern races with a dominant victory in Friday's G3 Albany Stakes. The 240,000gns Book 1 graduate, drawn in the supposedly unfavourable stall one on the track's far side, raced on the wing in midfield through halfway in this straight six-furlong contest. Coming under pressure to reduce arrears approaching the quarter-mile pole, the well-backed 7-1 chance made continued headway to seize control entering the final furlong and was driven out in the closing stages to assert superiority by 1 1/2 lengths and a length from Awaken (Mehmas) and Balantina (Ten Sovereigns). Aidan O'Brien nominee and 15-8 favourite Signora (Frankel) threatened inside the final quarter-mile, but lacked the necessary kick and finished ninth. Venetian Sun becomes the second black-type winner for Tally-Ho Stud-based freshman sire Starman. “I've never had a two-year-old fill like her,” enthused Burke in the immediate aftermath. “Before the season started, we knew we had a good filly on our hands,” added rider Clifford Lee.   The post ‘I’ve Never Had A Two-Year-Old Filly Like Her’: Burke Lauds Albany Heroine Venetian Sun appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.

      TAB accepts $40k bet on Telfer horse?

      By Brodie · Posted

      So why not let some of the restricted punters on for reasonable amounts to see if they can pluck $ off them? At the end of the day the odds are always in favour of the TAB? Where is their sporting spirit??
