Calumet Farm homebred SHE BE SMOOTH (f, 3, Lexitonian–Seattle Smooth, by Quiet American) went to favored fellow firster Prom Queen (Quality Road) entering the final furlong of their respective one-mile debuts Friday afternoon at Gulfstream Park and kicked home smartly to open her account at first asking in very promising fashion. Fairly well-backed at odds of 9-2, the chestnut filly broke a bit to her inside, but it didn't cost her momentum or position, as she steadily made ground at the inside to enjoy the run of the race from close up in third. Given the hurry-up at the five-sixteenths, She Be Smooth was pulled to the outside to deliver her challenge, dueled with and eventually collared the chalk with about 100 yards to travel and was going away late. The winner's dam celebrated her finest moment when taking out the 2009 GI Ogden Phipps Handicap for Mercedes Stable and Tony Dutrow and was purchased by Brad Kelley's operation for $300,000 in foal to Malibu Moon at the 2015 Keeneland November Sale. The mare's six previous winners includes 2020 GIII Remington Park Oaks third Seattle Slang (Tapit). Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0.

German legend Andrasch Starke has retired from the saddle, Galopp Online reported on Friday morning. The most successful German jockey of all time, Starke has at least 2,853 victories to his credit on record during his time in Europe and several more in Asia. Although he won eight Deutsches Derbys and was crowned a champion in Germany 10 times, Starke is best remembered as the partner of the indomitable German Horse of the Year Danedream. The daughter of Lomitas won the G1 Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe in 2011 and added the G1 King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Stakes a year later. “This is the end of my career,” Starke told the Turf-Times on Thursday.

According to a story by David Grening in the Daily Racing Form, according to trainer Bill Mott, the main goal in 2026 for the newly minted Horse of the Year Sovereignty (Into Mischief) will be the GI Breeders' Cup Classic. Mott said that while he has not yet mapped out a schedule for Sovereignty, he has already ruled out a start in the March 28 GI Dubai World Cup. That news came as somewhat of a surprise considering that Sovereignty's owner, Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, is Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai and often targets the $12 million race run in his home country. Sheik Mohammed's Godolphin Racing has won the race nine times. Mott told the DRF that Sovereignty, who is stabled at his winter base at Payson Park in Florida is “a couple of weeks away” from his first workout on the year and that he is not sure where or when his champion colt will make his 4-year-old debut. “I'd like to make the Breeders' Cup Classic at the end of the year and whatever makes any kind of sense in between,” Mott said. Sovereignty was on target to make the 2025 Breeders' Cup Classic but missed the race after spiking a temperature three days before the big event. Mott acknowledged that missing the Breeders' Cup may have led to the decision to race Sovereignty as a 4-year-old as the Godolphin teams knows that a Breeders' Cup Classic win would only enhance his value as a stallion,. “If he would have won the Breeders' Cup it would have been more difficult to bring him back for a lot of different reasons,” said Mott. Grening also reported that Mott was contacted by NYRA racing officials about the idea of moving the date of the GI Jockey Club Gold Cup. The idea that was floated was to return the race to Belmont Park and run when the track re-opens in mid-September. That would mean it would be held about six weeks prior to the Breeders' Cup. “Funny enough, I gave them my opinion without even thinking I had a horse for it,” Mott told the DRF. “I mean, he was asking about the placement of races and I said it makes perfect sense.” Mott also mentioned the GI Whitney as a possible target for Sovereignty. He also acknowledged the challenges that come with bringing a Horse of the Year back to the races. Mott won back-to-back Horse of the Year titles with Cigar in 1995 and 1996. “It means you don't want to make any mistakes,” Mott said. “That they've made the decision and they're taking the gamble of putting him back into training, there's a little more pressure, a responsibility, a feeling that you want to come back and be able to perform well. I just don't want to mess anything up.” The post Report: Sovereignty Will Not Be Ready For The Dubai World Cup appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
