After collecting a breakthrough victory in the inaugural Delaware Derby June 14, 'TDN Rising Star' Admiral Dennis (Constitution) will be pointed to the GIII West Virigina Derby at Mountaineer Aug. 3. The Albaugh Family Stables colorbearer sat much closer to the pace than usual in second and drew off in the stretch to score by an impressive 3 1/4 lengths, good for a career-high 95 Beyer Speed Figure. He was previously a frustrating and late-running sixth after losing contact with the field in the GII Rebel S. at Oaklawn Feb. 23 and a rallying fourth, beaten three lengths, in the GI Blue Grass S. at Keeneland Apr. 8. “After the Blue Grass, we decided that we were gonna give him 60 days and regroup for the year and see if we could hit some of these summer Derbies,” Albaugh Family Stable's General Manager Jason Loutsch said. “Initially, it looks like it was a good decision to freshen him up a little bit.” Loutsch continued, “The plan was to get him involved early (in the Delaware Derby). I didn't expect him to be that close to the lead, obviously. It was a new dimension. I'm just hoping that he's a maturing 3-year-old that can keep developing and have a great 4-year-old year as well.” Admiral Dennis, one of 77 stakes winners worldwide for leading sire Constitution, is the first foal out of the stakes-winning Gulf Coast (Union Rags), who hails from the extended female family of the legendary A.P. Indy. The $425,000 Keeneland September yearling purchase is trained by Brad Cox. Admiral Dennis was profiled in our 'Second Chances' series following a debut third at Churchill Downs last September. “We've always thought an awful lot of him,” Loutsch said.

BBC racing commentator John Hunt has vowed to treat life as “a gift” in his first interview since his wife and two of his daughters were murdered in a crossbow and knife attack at their family home. Kyle Clifford, 26, killed his ex-partner Louise Hunt, 25, her sister Hannah Hunt, 28, and their mother Carol Hunt, 61, on July 9 last year. Clifford was sentenced to a whole-life order at Cambridge Crown Court in March after pleading guilty to the murders, while he was later convicted of raping Louise in a “violent, sexual act of spite”. Hannah was able to message her boyfriend and call 999 in the moments before she died in the attack, telling them what had happened and who was responsible. “Police officers of 30 years' experience had their breath taken away by how brave she was, how she was able to think so clearly in that moment, to know what she needed to do,” Hunt told BBC News. Asked if his daughter's actions had saved his life, he said, “That's what I believe. I said it in court and I said many, many times, her doing that has given me life. And I've used that to re-ground myself on a daily basis. “I get to live. Hannah gave me that and I've got to treat it as a gift from her.” Hunt, who was joined in the interview by his surviving daughter, Amy, also explained how he still speaks to his wife and two daughters each day. “From the moment I wake up, I say good morning to each of them,” he continued. “Sometimes I say out loud to Hannah and Louise, 'Girls, sorry I can't be with you, I'm with your mum at the moment'. “As I close my eyes at night, I chat to them as well. So, yeah, [they're] very close [to me] all the time.” Hunt still lives in the family home and said his return to commentary work had helped him move forward in the months after the sentencing. He added, “When it happened, I thought, 'How on earth am I ever going to be able to care about anything ever again?' “It's fine to sit with that thought in the wreckage of what was our personal disaster. But you come to realise that, with a little bit of work, you can find some light again.” The post ‘You Can Find Some Light Again’ – John Hunt Gives First Interview Since Family Murders appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.

Simplification (Not This Time–Simply Confection, by Candy Ride {Arg}), winner of the 2022 GII Fasig-Tipton Fountain of Youth Stakes, will stand the Southern Hemisphere breeding season at Haras Carampangue in Argentina, Turf Diario reported. The 6-year-old, who will shuttle back to Pleasant Acres Stallions in Ocala where he began his stud career in 2024, was brought to Argentina under a partnership between Haras Juan Antonio, Stud RDI, and El Wing. “We were approached by Roberto Vignatti, who really liked the horse and suggested we look into him,” Ignacio Pavlovsky of Haras Carampangue told Turf Diaro. “I watched all 16 of his races and was impressed by his speed, consistency, and durability–he never got an easy trip. We traveled to the U.S. with Endrigo Gennoni to see him in person, and his conformation and his foals blew us away. Then RDI joined in–we already share Ivar–and now the whole group is really excited. He's got the looks, the pedigree–being out of a Candy Ride mare–and I've always loved Not This Time. A new stallion brings fresh energy, and we're all very motivated for what's to come.” In addition to his win in the Fountain of Youth Stakes, Simplification also won the Mucho Macho Man Stakes and was second in the GIII Holy Bull Stakes and third in the GI Curlin Florida Derby before a fourth-place effort in the 2022 GI Kentucky Derby. He also hit the board in the GIII West Virginia Derby and GIII Harlan's Holiday Stakes in 2022 and in the GII Gulfstream Park Mile in 2023. On the board in nine of 16 lifetime starts, Simplification retired with three wins and earnings of $873,110. He stood the 2025 season at Pleasant Acres for $6,500.
