Alex Pantall trainee Rhiyanna (Elarqam) shed maiden status at Lyon Parilly five weeks ago and continued on the upgrade with a breakthrough victory in Monday's G3 Darley Prix des Reservoirs at Deauville, becoming the first black-type scorer for her second-crop sire (by Frankel) who is now based in Turkey. The 17-2 chance was slick from the inside stall and occupied a forward position behind the leaders in a handy fourth during the opening exchanges. Inching into third approaching halfway, she made headway under pressure in the home straight to go second entering the final furlong and kept on relentlessly to usurp Kiss Melody (Almanzor) by a short-neck in the dying strides for a career high. The hitherto undefeated Shahbanu (Mehmas) was 1 1/4 lengths adrift in third. Pedigree Notes Rhiyanna is the latest of four foals, all winners, and second stakes performer out of an unraced half to the multiple Group-winning G1 Dubai World Cup runner-up Algiers (Shamardal). The March-foaled bay is a half-sister to the five-time Listed-placed Anthorus (Territories). Her second dam, the multiple Group 1-placed dual G3 Princess Elizabeth Stakes victrix Antara (Platini), is a half-sister to G3 Walther J Jacobs Rennen winner Andolini (Kallisto) and she is also a full-sister to the dam of the multiple Group-winning Deutsches St Leger hero Aff Un Zo (Kallisto).

Grade I winner Clicquot (Quality Road–Royal Obsession, by Tapit) and graded winner Italian Soiree (Uncle Mo–Social Call, by Smart Strike) head the latest supplements to Fasig-Tipton's November Sale, held on Monday, Nov. 3 in Lexington, Kentucky. Clicquot, who won the GI Cotillion on Sept. 20, is catalogued as hip 221. In the Cotillion, the 3-year-old defeated GISWs Scottish Lassie, La Cara, and Good Cheer, winner of this year's Kentucky Oaks. Clicquot's next anticipated start is the upcoming GI Breeders' Cup Distaff at Del Mar. The grey filly won four consecutive starts this year at three, including the GIII Indiana Oaks. She has current earnings of $840,153. Clicquot, who hails from a female family that includes GISW Magnificent Song, will be consigned as racing/broodmare prospect by Hill 'n' Dale at Xalapa, agent.

Also, Midnite is now one of the title sponsors alongside BetMGM. The former will sponsor the Marathon, Middle Distance and Sprint categories, while BetMGM will back the Fillies & Mares, Mile and 3YO divisions.

The winner of each AWC Trials Day race will be eligible for free entry to the corresponding Finals Day race at Newcastle, as well as a £15,000 bonus should they go on to also win on Good Friday. Any horse that wins at both AWC Trials Days in the same category and goes on to also win at Newcastle will be eligible for a total bonus of £35,000.

So You Think, a winner of 10 Group 1 races in both hemispheres, has died at the age of 19 after a short illness. Coolmore Australia announced the news on Monday morning. The farm said in a statement, “It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of 10-time Group 1 winner and leading sire So You Think, after succumbing to a short illness while receiving world-class care from the team at Scone Equine Hospital.” The son of High Chaparral was described by his Southern Hemisphere trainer Bart Cummings as “perfection on four legs, you don't get any better than him, he is the finest, most genuine horse I have ever trained.” Bred by MJ Moran and Piper Farm in New Zealand, he was purchased by Duncan Ramage for NZ$110,000 on behalf of Dato Tan Chin Nam at the NZB Karaka Yearling Sale. Out of G2 Sir Tristram Fillies Classic winner Triassic (Tights), the dark bay would make his mark in two editions of the Cox Plate (2009/2010), as well as the MacKinnon Stakes, Caulfield Stakes and Underwood Stakes. He was also third in the Melbourne Cup. In the Northern Hemisphere, So You Think won the Prince Of Wales's Stakes, Eclipse Stakes, Irish Champion Stakes and two editions of the Tattersalls Gold Cup (2011/2012) for Aidan O'Brien. During his career there, he was also second in the Champion Stakes and another edition of the Prince Of Wales's Stakes at Royal Ascot. He won 14 of his 23 starts, placed in another five and earned over $8.6 million. “When people visit Coolmore, more often than not the stallion most of them really want to see is So You Think,” added Coolmore Australia's Tom Magnier. “He was an absolute gentleman, an incredibly kind and intelligent horse and this is a sad day for all the staff that have looked after him so well at Coolmore since he retired in 2012. “We are so lucky to have had him and watch him develop into one of the country's truly elite sires. He provided me with so many great memories on racetracks throughout the world as both a racehorse and a stallion. I will never forget the day he sired three Group 1 winners in a day at Randwick in 2022, but equally the day he provided Joseph O'Brien with his first Royal Ascot winner as a jockey in the Prince of Wales's Stakes in 2012.” O'Brien told the Press Association after his first Gold Cup win in Ireland in 2011, “So You Think looks very special and is an incredible athlete. He just does everything so incredibly easily it's hard to believe. He's incredibly exciting and something like him you don't see very often. There's a chance that we've never seen anything like this horse before, so we're just so grateful and privileged to have him.” At stud Down Under, he has finished in the top 10 of the Australian sires' table for the past five seasons, coming in second to I Am Invincible twice during that time. His current Group 1 winners stand at 12. His leading runner is three-time top-level winner Think It Over. He also spent three seasons shuttling to Coolmore Stud in Ireland. Overall, So You Think has sired 66 stakes winners worldwide, 43 of them group/graded.
