    • The uncertainty felt by stakeholders within the European bloodstock industry appears likely to persist into the summer after US President Donald Trump announced a 10% “global tariff” which will be in place for around five months. Trump's “reciprocal tariffs”, imposed on most of the rest of the world last April under an emergency powers law, were overturned by the US Supreme Court on Friday in a major blow to the President's economic agenda. However, speaking at the White House, Trump said that the Supreme Court decision affirmed his ability to charge more tariffs under different statutes. He said, “In order to protect our country, a president can actually charge more tariffs than I was charging, under the various tariff authorities. So, we can use other of the statutes, other of the tariff authorities, which have also been confirmed and are fully allowed. “Therefore, effective immediately, all national security tariffs under Section 232 and existing Section 301 tariffs, they're existing, they're there, remain in place, fully in place. And in full force. “Today, I will sign an order to impose a 10% global tariff under Section 122, over and above our normal tariffs already being charged. And we're also initiating several Section 301 and other investigations to protect our country from unfair trading practises of other countries and companies.” Trump said that some trade deals negotiated after he imposed his reciprocal tariffs will no longer be valid after the US Supreme Court ruling. He added, “Some of them stand. Many of them stand. Some of them won't, and they'll be replaced with the other tariffs.” It has been reported that over 1,600 horses have been permanently imported into America from Britain and Ireland alone over the past four years. Under Trump's tariffs, imports arriving from Britain were due to incur a 10% tariff, while those coming from the EU were to be charged 15%.

    • Trainer Paolo Lobo sent out Farda Amiga (Broad Brush) to a 20-1 upset of Take Charge Lady (Dehere) in the 2002 GI Kentucky Oaks and he could be back in Louisville on the first of May after Resplendence (Justify) took a full field wire-to-wire in the Cincinnati Trophy at Turfway Park. The victory was good for 20 points on the Road to the Oaks. Off the board in a pair of turf routes on the Kentucky circuit to begin her career, Resplendence missed by a nose two-turning over the main track at Horseshoe Indianapolis Nov. 6 and most recently graduated by a half-dozen lengths routing over this surface Jan. 15. The sixth choice in a field of 11, Resplendence bounced well from the one hole and was allowed a soft time of it up front through fractions of :25 flat and :50.82 to the half. That left her with plenty in the tank and when asked to kick in the stretch, she did so en route to a comfortable victory as Lovely Grey (Vekoma) closed from midpack for second. “She just keeps improving,” said Lobo. “I thought she was my best filly over the summer, but after her first couple of races I knew I had to back off on her. Once we got her over the all-weather, she really made an improvement.” Heavily favored Dame Laura (Munnings) was put in tight quarters early on and suffered an injury seven furlongs from home and was subsequently vanned off. A daughter of Canadian Horse of the Year Sealy Hill and a half-sister to Sovereign Award winner Hillaby (Distorted Humor), GISW Cambier Parc (Medaglia d'Oro) and Grade III winners Belle Hill (Sky Mesa) and Gale Force (Giant's Causeway), Paradise Alley was purchased by Bonne Chance for $140,000 in foal to Flatter at the 2021 Keeneland January Sale. The mare is also the dam of a yearling filly by Flameaway and changed hands for $21,000 when offered in foal to Maxfield at last year's Keeneland September Sale. Resplendence is the 57th worldwide stakes winner for Coolmore America's Justify. Click for the Equibase.com chart or VIDEO, sponsored by FanDuel TV.

    • Close up in strong company in the spring, Go Racing’s Lord Penman (NZ) (Contributer) broke through and claimed his first Australian victory in the A$160,000 Racing and Sports Handicap (1400m) at Rosehill on Saturday. The New Zealand-bred Contributer gelding ran second on his Sydney debut in August, then filled the runner-up spot behind Linebacker in the A$1 million Silver Eagle (1300m) and finished within four lengths of the undefeated Autumn Glow when seventh in the Gr.1 Epsom Handicap (1600m). Lord Penman was sent out as a $2.40 favourite for his first-up appearance on Saturday in the hands of jockey James McDonald, and he produced a well-timed finish down the outside of the track to edge out Palmetto in a New Zealand-bred quinella. “Lord Penman made his way back to the winners’ circle with a win at Rosehill today,” Go Racing said on social media. “The four-year-old gelding was fresh up today and given a beautiful ride to hit the line very strongly. Congratulations to trainer Chris Waller and his team, James McDonald for the ride, and to his large ownership group.” Go Racing’s general manager Matt Allnutt revealed that Lord Penman will be aimed at Group One goals this autumn. “He looks to have come back very well,” Allnutt said. “He acquitted himself well in Australia in the spring without winning, but he was in races like the Epsom and the Golden Eagle (1500m) and he performed creditably in that company. He’s being aimed at the Doncaster (Gr.1, 1600m) this year and we believe he’s got a good campaign ahead of him.” A four-time winner in New Zealand for Cambridge trainer Stephen Marsh, Lord Penman has now had 13 starts for five wins, four placings and A$536,664 in stakes. He was bred by Simms Davison and was a $60,000 purchase by Toro Bloodstock from Mapperley Stud’s yearling draft at Karaka in 2023. View the full article
