Rain or shine, the show must go on, and Curtain Call (Tiz the Law) gave the people what they came to see at Saratoga, kicking home powerfully at second asking to claim 'TDN Rising Star' honors. Outkicked early over the slop as debuting Throckmorton (Caracaro) was determined to control the tempo, the field swung through bend behind a half in :45.15 and the running was on as they entered the homestretch. Inhaling his competition from between challengers attempting to mount responses, Curtain Call kicked home to score by a widening margin in a final time of 1:10.31. Favorited Tagermeen (Into Mischief) ran on to claim second. The son of Tiz the Law was unveiled June 12 at Churchill Downs to run a well-beaten second behind fellow 'TDN Rising Star' Obliteration (Violence). That runner returned to action July 5 at this venue to put on a Tour de Force in the GIII Sanford Stakes, winning by 10 1/2 lengths. Sales history: $115,000 Ylg '24 FTKJUL; $325,000 2yo '25 OBSMAR. O-West Point Thoroughbreds; B-Nancy Stone (FL); T-Mark Casse. The post Call for an Encore!

After all the will-they or won't-theys leading up to Saturday's G1 Al Basti Equiworld Dubai July Cup, it came down to the hardened sprinters and a hardened jockey with No Half Measures (Cable Bay) springing a 66-1 upset under Neil Callan. Campaigned mainly over five furlongs so far, last year's G3 World Trophy winner relished the step up to six to overwhelm Big Mojo (Mohaather) in the last half a furlong and provide Richard Hughes with a first Group 1 winner as a trainer. “Richard told me she's very genuine and better with a bit of dig in the ground, but that it was an open race and they had to have a go,” commented the winner's journeyed jockey, who had ridden successfully in Hong Kong and had recently been served with a ban by the BHA for social media comments. “I left her alone for as long as possible and when I gave her a flick she accelerated. I'm getting into the twilight of my career, but the one thing I have is a lot of self-belief and every dog has his day.” Drawn widest away from the stand's rail, which seemed to be carrying a bias at this meeting, the four-year-old was handed an ideal lead by the Jersey runner-up Spy Chief (Kingman) with Notable Speech (Dubawi) and co waiting to join battle on the other side. That 85-40 favourite looked to be going best inside the last two furlongs, but as his run flattened out No Half Measures emerged to power past the 12-1 shot Big Mojo and prevail by a neck, with the 40-1 shot Run To Freedom (Muhaarar) completing the shock tricast 1 3/4 lengths away.

Picked by William Buick from the two Godolphin hopes for Saturday's G2 Superlative Stakes, Saba Desert (Dubawi) justified that call to continue connections' run of success at Newmarket's July Festival. Swooping late to deny the 4-6 favourite Italy (Wootton Bassett), the grandson of the Irish 1,000 Guineas heroine Gossamer defied a market drift to 6-1 to prevail by 1 1/4 lengths and deliver a fourth renewal to his sire who won this himself in 2004. “We went to Sandown with a lot of confidence and William said he had felt like sitting there and winning on the bridle that day which is rare for him,” Charlie Appleby said after greeting his sixth winner of this staging post. “He's a horse we've held in high regard for a while and is the typical stamp of a Dubawi–deep-girthed and short-backed–and as it's a road we often take he could go to The Curragh for the National and then on to the Dewhurst.” Opening his account at Sandown in the maiden won by the stable's Native Trail in 2021, the chestnut leapt in the air at the break and missed the kick which served as a blessing as the filly Venetian Lace (Masar) streaked up the stand's rail. Italy, who had been too free throughout the early stages, and the winner's stablemate Wild Desert (Too Darn Hot) were compromised as she drifted left running downhill and the way was clear for Saba Desert to overhaul them all in the closing stages.

Richard Hannon trainee Orion's Belt (Starman), a debut fourth at Salisbury last month, made all for an impressive 3 3/4-length success in Saturday's Rossdales British EBF Maiden Fillies' Stakes at Newmarket and became the 15th winner for her freshman sire (by Dutch Art). The seven-furlong test went the way of subsequent G1 Fillies' Mile and G1 1000 Guineas heroine Desert Flower (Night Of Thunder) last year. “She's a very nice filly and that was exactly what we thought earlier on in the year,” said the Hannon stable's Tony Gorman. “She was stepping up in trip today, but I think she would have won at six [furlongs] because she was always in a lovely place. Once ours have had a run they know their jobs and she has loads of options. She's a big filly, so we'll give her a bit of time. She's by a proper sire.” In command throughout, the 15-8 favourite came under pressure when threatened with a quarter-mile remaining and was ridden out in the closing stages to easily outpoint New Vega (New Bay) in impressive fashion. Orion's Belt is the sixth of seven foals and third scorer out of a half-sister to G2 Richmond Stakes victor and G1 Prix Morny third Always Hopeful (Mind Games) and the stakes-placed Nacho Libre (Kyllachy). The February-foaled bay is a half-sister to G2 Oaks d'Italia runner-up Must Be Late (Champs Elysees) and a yearling colt by Space Traveller. 1st-Newmarket, £25,000, Mdn, 7-12, 2yo, f, 7fT, 1:27.07, g/f. ORION'S BELT (IRE) (f, 2, Starman {GB}–Delphica {Ire}, by Acclamation {GB}) Sales history: €33,000 Wlg '23 GOFNOF; 105,000gns Ylg '24 TATOCT. Lifetime Record: 2-1-0-0, $18,592.
