The New York State Department of Agriculture has lifted the 14-day quarantine of Barn 28 on the Belmont backstretch, according to a release from the New York Racing Association (NYRA). All horses stabled in Barn 28 are now permitted to enter races as of Saturday, June 28, and to train with the general horse population beginning Sunday, June 29. Barn 28 was placed under quarantine on June 14 after a case of strangles was identified in the barn. The George Weaver-trained 2-year-old gelding Mo Curls was sent for treatment on June 13 and returned a positive result for strangles on June 14.

Commentator (Distorted Humor–Outsource, by Storm Bird), a two-time winner of the GI Whitney Handicap for owner Tracy Farmer and trainer Nick Zito, was euthanized on Friday, June 27, at Old Friends at Cabin Creek in New York due to long-term complications from Potomac horse fever. He was 24 years old. Bred in New York by Michael Martinez, the chestnut was a $45,000 Keeneland November weanling and was purchased by Farmer for $135,000 out of the 2002 Fasig-Tipton Kentucky Sale. After besting his fellow Empire-breds by over 27 combined lengths in his first three starts in his debut season in 2004, he took Keeneland's Perryville Stakes by seven lengths and completed an unblemished campaign with an eight-length Churchill allowance success. Commentator set demanding factions and held on to win the 2005 Whitney by a neck over future GI Breeders' Cup Classic winner and Horse of the Year Saint Liam, the pair pulling nine lengths clear of Farmer's Sir Shackleton, and added big-margin victories in state-bred stakes company at ages five and six. He celebrated his best season at the races as a 7-year-old in 2008, taking out the seven-furlong GII Richter Scale Handicap by 13 3/4 lengths ahead of a pacesetting runner-up effort in the GI Met Mile. He bossed his rivals from the front to take the 2008 Whitney by nearly five lengths and added the final renewal of the Massachusetts Handicap in his next start, scoring by 14 lengths. A New York-bred stakes winner and third in an attempt to take a third Whitney in 2009, two-time New York Horse of the Year Commentator retired with a record of 14-1-4 from 24 starts and earnings of $2,049,845, the 10th most of any New York-bred in history. He holds the Belmont main-track record for 7 1/2 furlongs (1:27.44) and the Commentator Stakes is held each year in the gelding's honor. Commentator was originally retired to Old Friends' Dream Chase Farm in Georgetown, Kentucky, before being permanently relocated to Cabin Creek in 2016. Commentator spent the final few years of his retirement in the company of Watchem Smokey while helping bring awareness to Old Friends' mission of dignified retirement for all racehorses. “He was well loved and we will miss him forever,” said Old Friends at Cabin Creek manager JoAnn Pepper. “He was a champion through and through and was very brave.” The post Two-Time Whitney Winner Commentator Euthanized appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.

1st-Churchill Downs, $118,636, Msw, 6-28, 2yo, 5f, :58.10, ft, neck. PAPA KEN (c, 2, Yaupon–Whatashame, by Blame) took on a field of entirely first-time starters as the 5-2 second choice behind the son of another first-crop sire in 4-5 favorite I C Light (Charlatan). 8-1 longshot Spirit of Royal (Global Campaign) flashed speed from the outside and led this field as far he could through fractions of :22.46 and :45.67 but Papa Ken loomed off the turn from second as I C Light yielded at the quarter pole. In a driving stretch run, Papa Ken surged past Spirit of Royal late and just held on ahead of a charging The Standard (By My Standards) to graduate by a neck. The second winner for Yaupon (by Uncle Mo), Papa Ken was a $160,000 OBS April buy for Ken Reimer. This is the family of MGISW Point of Entry (Dynaformer) and MGISW Pine Island (Arch). Whatashame, who now has a winner from her first runner, sold to Girvin's Girls for $120,000 at FTKFEB and has since twice visited Girvin, producing fillies in both 2024 and 2025. Sales History: $160,000 2yo '25 OBSAPR. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $69,300. Click for the Equibase.com chart or VIDEO, sponsored by FanDuel TV. O-Ken T. Reimer; B-Brad & Misty Grady (KY); T-Steven M. Asmussen.
