Despite missing the Breeders' Cup with a fever, the results from the weekend could not dethrone Sovereignty from his top position in the final week of the National Thoroughbred Racing Association's Top Thoroughbred Poll.View the full article -

As the global racing industry returns to its respective corners following the Breeders' Cup World Championships, the same drum is beating once again: “Regulatory vets are terrible. They have too much power. My horse is sound–we imaged them, we've had no issues, and we wouldn't send them if they weren't 100%.” The truth is, all of those statements can be true at the same time–and often are. Whether you're a casual fan, a critic, or a lifelong racing supporter, you could easily walk away from this spectacular week thinking that top horsemen and horsewomen train lame horses and don't even know it. Statistically, nearly 10% of the top horses in the world were scratched due to soundness issues according to the regulatory veterinary process, with press releases coming out faster than Krispy Kreme's “Hot Now” donuts. That optic isn't good for anyone–not for the industry, and most importantly, not for the horse. I have the unique perspective of having worn all the hats in this debate–veterinary world experience, trainer, and participant–and one thing I know is that everyone needs to stop talking at each other and start talking to each other about solutions. So, here's my start. I don't envy the regulatory veterinarians. Their job is incredibly difficult, and as a trainer, I've experienced the heartbreak of scratching from the Breeders' Cup myself. I also navigate the daily nuances of racing rules and HISA regulations. Hear me out. One simple step toward improvement–and a place where HISA already provides the framework–is this: regulatory veterinary exam comments should be visible in the HISA portal to the connections of each horse. These notes shouldn't be secret. I support HISA–not blindly, but constructively. I support the effort to keep improving it, to make it better for our horses and our industry. I'm well aware of its shortcomings, believe me. But since HISA's inception, we've steadily built comprehensive veterinary records for our horses–records that regulatory vets access and review regularly. These records belong to the horses, and by extension, to their owners. If a regulatory veterinarian has a medical opinion about one of my horses, I want to know it. I value their professional judgment–even if I don't always agree. The idea that medical information flows only one way doesn't align with our shared goal of putting the horse first. Making regulatory notes accessible to trainers would turn the temperature down immediately. It removes guesswork and dispels the perception of bias–the notion that “a certain vet has it out for a certain trainer.” Transparency would help us focus on what really matters: the horse. Will regulatory vets be right 100% of the time? Of course not. None of us are. But hiding their notes from trainers doesn't help anyone, least of all the horses. In closing: we can't keep shouting “transparency” from the rooftops while winking on the side and playing pin the tail on the donkey. If we want a stronger, more accountable industry–for owners, bettors, fans, and above all, the horses–we can do better. And we must.

The four-strong 2026 roster of Newsells Park Stud stallions is led by Nathaniel at £17,500. The Classic sire stood for £20,000 in 2025. On the back of his son Zavateri's exploits, Without Parole will stand for an increased fee of £10,000, up from £8,000 this year. Zavateri won the G2 July Stakes, G2 Vintage Stakes and the G1 National Stakes this term. Rounding out the roster are A'Ali at £5,000 and Isaac Shelby at £7,000, who both stand at unchanged fees. All fees are October 1st, special live foal terms. Newsells Park Stud's general manager, Julian Dollar said, “Zavateri provided us with one of the great 'David & Goliath' stories of the year, as he proved his talent, speed, and incredible gutsiness time and time again. His wins as well as those of group and stakes performers like Fiery Lucy, Genchev, Sea To Sky, etc., from only 84 foals of racing age, demonstrate what this top-class miler son of Frankel offers breeders. “Nathaniel has established himself as one of Europe's premier middle distance sires with nine Group 1 winners and four Classic winners. He and Frankel are the only active sires to have produced the winners of the English, Irish and French Oaks, as well as the Epsom Derby. You have to be a pretty special stallion to sire horses of the calibre of Enable and Desert Crown and it is gratifying to see yearling buyers recognising that fact. His yearling sales average continues to rise, year on year. He is an appealing stallion for every breeder, confirmed at the highest Classic level, a leading young broodmare sire, and with a yearling sales average of more than £100,000, and yet he stands at only £17,500. “A'Ali is a cracking looking horse whose progeny have shown they are exactly what they say on the tin: fast and precocious. A leading first-crop sire based in Britain, (by winners and winners to runners), his progeny made an immediate impact this spring, highlighted by multiple winner and Group performer, Ali Shuffle, but have proven they can train on with a multitude of recent winners.” “As the only son of Night Of Thunder currently standing in Britain, Isaac Shelby is an incredibly exciting stallion prospect, and it was no surprise to see him well supported in his first season at stud. His looks and race record are remarkably similar to his sire. His Group 2 win as a two-year-old, his Guineas form at three and his conformation and temperament make a compelling case for breeders to use this son of Night Of Thunder, for a fraction of his sire's fee.” The post Nathaniel Anchors 2026 Newsells Park Stud Roster At £17.5K, Without Parole Upped To £10K appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
