    • 12 -,18 months?  Is that a piss-take or does the April return mean next year?
    • The rate of fatal injury in equine athletes for 2024 was 1.11 per 1000 starts, the lowest rate since the creation of the Equine Injury Database (EID) back in 2009, according to the initial data analysis from the 16th year of reporting to the EID. Based on the 2024 data, 99.89% of all flat racing stats at racetracks participating in the EID were completed without a fatality. Analysis of the EID, released Wednesday by The Jockey Club, was provided by Dr. Euan Bennett of the University of Glasgow and Professor Tim Parkin of the University of Bristol, who has been a consultant on the EID since its inception. “It is remarkable and indeed gratifying to see the sustained improvement in these figures,” Parkin said. “It is a credit to all involved in the industry that such a significant improvement in the risk of fatal injury can be achieved off the back of the establishment of the EID and, of course, alongside lots of hard work from very many parties.” Since March 2012, racetracks have had the ability to voluntarily publish their statistics from the EID to The Jockey Club website. Tracks that opt to publish those statistics report a rate of 0.88 fatalities per 1000 starts compared to the 1.27 per 1000 for tracks that elect not to publish. Additionally, racetracks not covered under the Horseracing Integrity and Safety Authority (HISA) had a rate of 1.76 deaths per 1000 starts. As reported by HISA in February, the racing-related fatality rate at tracks subject to HISA rules came in at 0.90 per 1000 starts, aligning with the EID data. HISA reports race-related deaths after regulatory review. The EID stats are based on injuries that resulted in fatalities within 72 hours from the date of the race. The stats exclude steeplechase races and are subject to some change owing to a number of considerations, including the timeliness of reporting. All data entered into the EID is scrutinized during a multi-level quality control process to ensure the completeness and accuracy of reporting. In 2024, approximately 99% of all Thoroughbred starts were entered into the EID. The equine fatality rate as recently as 2009 was at 2.00 per 1000 starts and remained largely static through 2014, when the same figure came in at 1.89/1000. Since 2018, when the equine fatality rate was observed at 1.68 per 1000 starts, the rate has declined in each year bar one, where there was a slight uptick (from 1.25 in 2022 to 1.32 in 2023). Races contested at trips of six furlongs or shorter saw the 'highest' fatality race at 1.20 per 1000 and dropped to 1.12 between six and eight furlongs and 0.98 at longer distances. The fatality race on dirt tracks was 1.18 per 1000, on synthetic tracks 1.02/1000 and 0.88 on turf. The fatality rate for horses four years and older was 1.21 per 1000, dropping to 0.94 for 3-year-olds and 0.90 for 2-year-olds. The EID, conceived at the Grayson-Jockey Club Research Foundation's first Welfare and Safety of the Racehorse Summit, was launched by The Jockey Club in July 2008 and seeks to identify the frequencies, types, and outcomes of racing injuries using a standardized format that generates valid statistics, identifies markers for horses at increased risk of injury, and serves as a data source for research directed at improving safety and preventing injuries.

    • Lane's End's Senor Buscador (Mineshaft–Rose's Desert, by Desert God) has had his first mare checked in foal, the Kentucky nursery said Wednesday morning. The first confirmed mare is Scandalous Song (Unbridled's Song–My White Corvette, by Tarr Road), owned by Greenfield Farms and Travis and Jacqui Gould. The 15-year-old is an unraced daughter of the stakes-winning and dual graded-placed My White Corvette, whose five winners include five-time Grade I winner Stardom Bound (Tapit), the Eclipse Award-winning juvenile filly of 2008. Scandalous Song is herself the dam of three winners, including Zanesville (Tiznow), who amassed a record of 13-4-13 from 47 starts, including third-place efforts at three in the Prairie Mile and Super Derby Prelude for earnings in excess of $318,000. Bred by Joe Peacock Sr. and Joey Peacock, Jr., Senor Buscador was victorious in seven of his 23 career starts, topped by thrilling victory in the G1 Saudi Cup in 2024. His five stakes successes also include the GII San Diego Handicap and GIII Ack Ack Stakes while he was also third in last year's G1 Dubai World Cup. Senor Buscador is standing his first season at Lane's End for $7,500.

    • What 2025 Coolmore Classic Where Rosehill Gardens Racecourse – Sydney, NSW When Saturday, March 15, 2025 Prizemoney $1,000,000 Distance 1500m Conditions Group 1, Fillies And Mares 2024 winner Zougotcha (2) | T: Chris Waller | J: James McDonald (57kg) Visit Dabble The Group 1 Coolmore Classic (1500m) headlines the action at Rosehill on Saturday afternoon, with a field of 15 fillies and mares set to battle it out for the $1 million prize. It comes as no surprise that the Chris Waller barn is well represented, with as many as five runners set to take their place on Saturday, with the camp attempting to claim a hat-trick of wins in the time-honoured feature in as many years after Zougotcha (2024) and Espiona (2023) secured victory in back-to-back editions. Will it be Waller’s star three-year-old Lady Shenandoah to get the job done? Or is there an upset brewing in the 2025 Coolmore Classic? 2025 Coolmore Classic odds It’s all one-way traffic as money continues to come for Lady Shenandoah in the Coolmore Classic after horse racing betting sites installed her as the $2.40 favourite for the event. Everything else is on the drift, including Group 2 Guy Walter Stakes (1400m) winner Amelia’s Jewel on the second line of betting at $5.50 with Neds. Lady Of Camelot ($7.00) is the only other runner holding single figures after finishing runner-up in the Group 1 Surround Stakes, while the likes of Melbourne-based duo Coeur Volante ($13.00) and Marble Arch ($13.00) are yet to budge after opening at $13.00 apiece, respectively. 2025 Coolmore Classic speed map The girls should burn the Rosehill turf in this year’s edition of the Coolmore Classic, with Grinzinger Belle (12) and Lady Of Camelot (14) likely to storm across in an attempt to gain ascendency throughout the 1500m journey. Amelia’s Jewel (6) showed good early speed to make every post a winner last time out and maps to find the one-one this time around, while Kerrin McEvoy will be looking to hold the rail aboard Coeur Volante from barrier one. Olentia (3) and Scarlet Oak (2) shouldn’t be too far off the leading section from their inside barriers, while Lady Shenandoah may go forward in a searching run to find cover somewhere mid-field under James McDonald. Continue reading for HorseBetting’s top selections and $100 betting strategy for the 2025 Coolmore Classic. Coolmore Classic 2025 preview & form Lady Shenandoah warrants all the respect in the world; however, she appears well found at the current price with BlondeBet in the 2025 Coolmore Classic. It’s the stable companion Olentia who gets the verdict, with the daughter of Zoustar representing tremendous each-way value as she gets set to peak third-up into the campaign. She was never in contention last time out in the Guy Walter Stakes when asked to sprint off a farcically slow tempo, still managing to produce some of the best closing splits of the entire meeting. Three of her seven career wins have come at Rosehill, and with the five-year-old finally drawing a marble to sit within striking distance of her rivals, the $26 with about Olentia is simply too big to ignore. The chances don’t end there, with the likes of Coeur Volante and Manaal and Lazzura all worth throwing into wider exotics.
