    • 1st-Ellis, $44,000, Moc ($50,000), 8-4, (C), 2yo, 7f, 1:24.89, ft, 7 lengths. JUST ASAP (c, 2, Maxfield–Movie Moment {GSP}, by Paynter) dominated the Monday opener at Ellis from the front to become the fifth winner for his freshman sire (by Street Sense) as the 3-1 third choice. Off alertly from an outside gate, the May foal took up the running at an early stage and enjoyed a soft time of things on the engine through fractions of :23.31 and :47.04. Taken on by the slow-starting Honey Dutch (Knicks Go), who loomed a brief danger four or five wide at the quarter pole, the $50,000 OBS April breezer had all the answers and pulled away to score with something in reserve. Avery Place (Vino Rosso) came from well back for second and galloped out past the winner, while Honey Dutch was forced to settle for third. The bay is one of three winners from three starters for her Grade III-placed dam, a daughter of this breeder's dual Grade I victress Starrer (Dynaformer). The latter's stakes-placed daughter Star Act (Street Cry {Ire}) is responsible for Krikorian's champion 2-year-old filly Just F Y I (Justify) and the colt's third dam To the Hunt (Relaunch) was twice Grade III-placed and produced a half-dozen winners, including MGISW Stellar Jayne (Wild Rush) and the dam of GISW Star Billing (Dynaformer). Movie Moment has not produced a live foal since Just Asap and was bred to Good Magic this past season. Sales history: $95,000 RNA Ylg '24 FTKOCT; $50,000 2yo '25 OBSAPR. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $26,538. Click for the Equibase.com chart. O-Ironhorse Racing Stable LLC; B-George Krikorian (KY); T-Mark E Casse.

    • Continuing the fine form of Ger Lyons's two-year-old team, Sean Jones's Howd'yadoit (Nando Parrado) swooped to conquer in Monday's Irish EBF Ballyhane Stakes. Coming into the valuable six-furlong median auction race on the back of a Down Royal maiden win last month, the 13-2 shot tracked the pace near side and stayed on best in the final 50 yards to beat Unbreakable Duke (Advertise) by 3/4 of a length.

    • The late Aga Khan IV, Criquette Head, Olivier Peslier and Docteur de Ballon will be inducted into the French Horse Racing Hall Of Fame on Saturday, August 16 during a ceremony at Deauville Racecourse: Jour de Galop will host the first induction ceremony that has been inspired by major international sports disciplines.  The aim of the Hall Of Fame is to celebrate the racing figures – equine and human – of the French racing industry.  Jour de Galop's Mayeul Caire said, “This project was designed to honor the great actors of Flat and jump racing who have made their mark on French soil – whether they are French or foreign. The idea is that their entry into the Hall of Fame is a 'Group 1-level' reward, a recognition both public and private, a source of pride, an indelible mark… and that each new inductee experiences a unique moment on their special day.” The post French Horse Racing Hall of Fame To Be Launched At Deauville  appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
