    • Gold Square's Napoleon Solo (c, 2, Liam's Map–Atomic Blonde, by Scat Daddy), a very sharp debut winner of an auction-restricted maiden special weight at Saratoga Aug. 8, put on a dominating performance in Saturday's 'Win and You're In' GI Champagne S. going a one-turn mile at the Belmont at the Big A meeting. Sent to the front by Joel Rosario from his outside draw, the 6-1 chance led through fractions of :22.53 and :44.24 with imposing 2-5 favorite It's Our Time (Not This Time) in hot pursuit. Napoleon Solo began to give them the slip on the far turn and showed no mercy from there, continuing on with authority to score by six lengths. Talkin (Good Magic) was second; Universe (Global Campaign) was third. It's Our Time, a no-brainer 'TDN Rising Star, presented by Hagyard' after airing by 17 3/4 lengths with a 94 Beyer Speed Figure on debut at the Spa Aug. 16, tired to finish a disappointing fourth. The final time was 1:34.57. Napoleon Solo becomes the seventh Grade I winner for Liam's Map. He is bred on the same Liam's Map x Scat Daddy cross as GI Blue Grass S. winner Burnham Square. Sales history: $40,000 yrl '24 KEESEP. Lifetime Record: 2-2-0-0. Owner: Gold Square LLC; Breeder: John D. Gunther & Eurowest Bloodstock (KY); Trainer: Chad Summers.   The post ‘Napoleon’ Dynamite: Liam’s Map Colt Napoleon Solo Romps in Champagne appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.

    • Meeting News South Canterbury RC Postponed   The South Canterbury meeting from Sunday 5 October has been postponed to Thursday 9 October. All scratchings have been reinstated. The new start time for Race 1 is 11.30am. Race 11 start time will be 5.40pm. Other race start times are to be confirmed. The race meeting was postponed following an inspection by both the Track Manager and the RIB early this morning due to surface water on the track.
    • New York-bred IRON ORCHARD (f, 2, Authentic–Onebrethatatime, by Brethren) pounced on the leaders four off the inside entering the final eighth of a mile and outslugged longshot Rileytole (Mitole) to take out Saturday's $400,000 GI Frizette Stakes at Aqueduct, in all likelihood punching her ticket to the GI Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies at Del Mar in 27 days' time. The Frizette is part of the Breeders' Cup Dirt Dozen series. A four-time veteran of sales rings, Iron Orchard–who most recently fetched $500,000 at OBS April–was one of the first to break the line, but was eased back off the early tempo as impressive Saratoga debut winner Carmel Coast (Omaha Beach) sped through and made the running in advance of Steer Clear (Street Sense) and Rileytole through enervating splits of :22.49 and :44.84. Shuffled back to about sixth for the run around the turn, Iron Orchard began to chart a wide course around the bend and had the leaders in her sights as she came with a four-wide bid into the lane. Steer Clear had assumed command from a spent Carmel Coast approaching the final furlong and Iron Orchard swept in front, looking all over like she'd run up the score. But Rileytole, who was under a heavy ride prior to the quarter pole and looked to be going in the wrong direction, found a second wind, advance inside with time ticking away and made it very close in the end. 'TDN Rising Star' presented by Hagyard Five Bars (Maxfield) lagged well back early, but weaved her way between horses in the lane to finish a promising third. Iron Orchard is the second graded winner and first to succeed at the elite level for Spendthrift Farm's Authentic.   Saturday, Belmont at the Big A FRIZETTE S.-GI, $400,000, Belmont The Big A, 10-4, 2yo, f, 1m, 1:35.97, ft. 1–IRON ORCHARD, 122, f, 2, by Authentic 1st Dam: Onebrethatatime (MSP, $133,283), by Brethren               2nd Dam: Onemiracleatatime, by Gulch               3rd Dam: Katie Love, by Manila 1ST GRADED STAKES WIN, 1ST GRADE I WIN.
