    • Bernie Sams will be launching a new venture, BF Sams Bloodstock Advisory, according to a press release from the new venture this morning. Drawing upon his extensive experience working for some of the world's top Thoroughbred farms, Sams said he would offer a variety of consulting services, including broodmare band management, advice on matings, purchases of stallion seasons and shares, securing equine insurance, and more. Born in Louisville, Kentucky, Sams began working with Thoroughbreds while attending the University of Kentucky. Early in his career, he worked at Wimbledon Farm, Haras de Roiville in France, Manchester Farm Lexington, and Overbrook Farm, as well as managing stallions at Gainesway. In 2003, Sams began his tenure at Claiborne Farm, where he served as Bloodstock and Stallion Manager. His role included assisting in buying and syndicating new stallions, managing the stallions, advertising, helping clients purchase mares to fortify their broodmare bands, consulting on matings, and a host of other duties and responsibilities. Among the successful stallions Sams managed at Claiborne were Pulpit, Arch, Flatter, Blame and War Front, one of the most accomplished sires in recent history. “I'm very excited to begin this new venture,” said Sams. “Claiborne was very good to me over the past 20-plus years and I look forward to the next chapter. I'm also happy to see my son, little Bernie, showing a passion for the Thoroughbred industry, so I'm hoping in the next few years he'll join me in this new endeavor.” Bernie Sams can be reached at bfsams1959@gmail.com.

    • Los Angeles and Anmaat will lock horns again in what is expected to be a titanic tussle for Wednesday’s Group One Prince Of Wales’s Stakes (2,000m) at Royal Ascot. The day two feature has gone to powerhouse trainer Aidan O’Brien on five occasions and three-time Group One winner Los Angeles is set to go off favourite for the middle-distance contest. The Camelot colt is unbeaten in two starts this season, winning the Group Two Mooresbridge Stakes (2,000m) at the Curragh on reappearance before...View the full article
    • Aidan O'Brien will seek a 10th Gold Cup at Royal Ascot on Thursday, with his prospects whittled down to just Illinois (Galileo) in the meeting's prestige feature. Last year's G2 Queen's Vase winner will take on the Aga Khan Studs representative Candelari (Frankel) from the Francis-Henri Graffard stable and that G1 Prix Vicomtesse Vigier winner is like him a newcomer to these Cup races. Old stagers Trawlerman (Golden Horn) and Sweet William (Sea The Stars) are back again, while the All-Weather Championships Marathon Handicap winner Wonder Legend (Sea The Stars) is an interesting contender. In the G2 Norfolk Stakes, Ballydoyle are represented by TDN Rising Star Charles Darwin (No Nay Never) as 16 stand their ground, while the G2 Ribblesdale Stakes has attracted 11 fillies including Robert Moran's TDN Rising Star and G3 Salsabil Stakes runner-up Catalina Delcarpio (Lope De Vega). There are 14 engaged in the G3 Hampton Court Stakes, with Juddmonte's G1 Prix du Jockey Club third Detain (Wootton Bassett) looking for quick compensation.

    • I realise it is a difficult concept for some, especially grumpy old men types, but the rules were originally written very much in the male gender. Good to see with all the successful and prominent female licensees in racing that the rules are now gender neutral.
