    • Wathnan Racing's Crimson Advocate (Nyquist), who annexed the 2023 G2 Queen Mary Stakes for George Weaver, returned to the scene of her greatest triumph with a decisive victory in Wednesday's G2 Duke Of Cambridge Stakes. Her 1 3/4-length tally provided the Gosden stable with a record-extending sixth win in the one-mile contest. Crimson Advocate had previously broken through for a second stakes win in Goodwood's Listed Conqueror Stakes last month, her third outing for John and Thady Gosden since joining from the Weaver stable, and the four-year-old landed a monster gamble here after opening the day at long odds. The well-backed 11-2 chance broke alertly from the gates and was reined back by James McDonald to race in rear after the initial exchanges. Placed in snooze mode for the most part, she was the last of seven to come off the bridle when stirred into action soon after passing the two pole and thundered home down the outside to collar last year's winner and stablemate Running Lion (Roaring Lion) with 100 yards remaining en route to a clear-cut success. Godolphin's Grade I-winning 5-4 favourite Cinderella's Dream (Shamardal) outbobbed the rallying 2024 G1 Irish 1000 Guineas heroine Fallen Angel (Too Darn Hot) by a head for the runner-up spot as Running Lion's bold frontrunning effort petered out in the dying embers.   The post Wathnan Racing’s Crimson Advocate Swoops Late for Duke Of Cambridge Victory appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.

    • Roel Dill has been appointed the new Chief Financial Officer by the Del Mar Thoroughbred Club, according to an organization release Wednesday. Additionally, Ann Hall has been promoted to Executive Vice President, Chief Operating Officer, and Lynn Wright has been pegged as the Executive Vice President, Chief Accounting Officer. Dill formerly served as Qualcomm's Senior Director, Finance of Qualcomm's Technology Licensing business unit and Ventures and Treasury groups. Prior to Qualcomm, he was a Senior Manager at KPMG, where he worked on DMTC's audit team. His full DMTC title, as of June 1, is Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer. Del Mar's Mike Ernst, who has filled that role for the past 33 years, has been named Executive Vice President, Finance. Hall, who has served in multiple capacities since joining DMTC in its accounting department in 1994, was the track's Senior Vice President for Operations and Administration. Her new role will see her take on the additional responsibilities of all general day-to-day operations of the seaside racing facility that first opened in 1937. Wright, a long-tenured staff member, has overseen DMTC's accounting team for more than a dozen years. She joined Del Mar in 1990, initially as Director of Financial Reporting and Planning. Subsequently, she was elevated to the role of Controller and Vice President. She now oversees the track's accounting, payroll and financial planning functions.

    • Providing owner-breeder Fiona Carmichael with the ultimate thrill on Wednesday, Carmers put another feather in Wootton Bassett's cap by breaking the track record in Royal Ascot's G2 Queen's Vase. Becoming the first to dip under three minutes for the 14-furlong trip here, the unbeaten Paddy Twomey-trained Listed Yeats Stakes winner recorded a 3/4-of-a-length success from Furthur (Waldgeist), with a head back to Rahiebb (Frankel) in third. It was Twomey's first runner at the Royal meeting.

    • Coolmore's twice-raced maiden True Love (No Nay Never) went down fighting when runner-up to G2 Coventry-winning stablemate Gstaad in the second of two starts last month and, hammered down to clear favourite for Wednesday's G2 Queen Mary Stakes, duly delivered a first renewal for Aidan O'Brien. She also restored family honour in the five-furlong dash and eclipsed her sister Truly Enchanting's 13th last year. The race was marred by the fatal injury to the Richard Hannon-trained Harry's Girl (Harry Angel). True Love broke swiftly from stall 25 of 25 and headed the stands' side group in an overall eighth as TDN Rising Star Zelaina (Mehmas) blazed a trail down the centre of the track. Making eyecatching headway into contention once leaving the quarter-mile pole behind, Ryan Moore galvanised his mount into seizing control passing the furlong marker and she kept on powerfully under a continued drive to hit the line with a 1 1/4-length advantage from Amo Racing's 100-1 outsider Flowerhead (Starman). Patrick Biancone trainee Lennilu (Leinster) made a dent for her freshman sire, and the Stateside team, and finished a half-length back on the better end of a three-way photo verdict for third. The well-backed 9-4 chance had previously forced Lady Iman into pulling out all the stops, when runner-up to that subsequent G3 Naas Fillies Sprint winner, in the Curragh's Listed First Flier Stakes on debut.   The post True Love Complements Gstaad With First Queen Mary Triumph for Aidan O’Brien appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
