He did a lot of things wrong before and during Tuesday's G3 Prix Thomas Bryon, but ultimately Godolphin's Al Zanati (Dubawi) was able to impose himself on proceedings in the nick of time. Difficult to load and recalcitrant throughout the early stages as William Buick sought to tuck him in behind, the 3-5 favourite who had been runner-up in the G3 Autumn Stakes last month had to close wide in the straight. Knuckling down where it mattered, the homebred cut down compatriot Bourbon Blues (Space Blues) in the final stride for a head success, with fellow Charlie Appleby-trained Pacifica Pier (Palace Pier) 2 1/2 lengths away in third. “I'm pleased we ran him, because it would have annoyed me over the winter had he not been a Stakes winner at two,” Appleby said of Al Zanati. “He's a work in progress, but the engine's there–it's a case of how he is mentally. He can be a challenge some mornings, he's sometimes electric and sometimes workmanlike so it's all about maturity.” “Stepping up in trip will see him improve, but mentally he should improve a lot and his dam was a challenge too,” he added of the winner, who could be about to switch to the dirt with the Kentucky Derby a distant dream at present. “We wanted to see what he was like on the surface and we could look at taking him to Dubai and go the Al Bastakiya route and see where we are. A good strong ten-furlong race will suit.” The post Al Zanati Leaves It Late In The Thomas Bryon, Kentucky Derby On The Horizon? appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.

Malaysian buyers made a resounding statement at the recent New Zealand Bloodstock Ready to Run Sale, securing an impressive 44 lots with a combined spend of $1.93 million. Held at Karaka, the sale featured a vibrant catalogue of two-year-olds, and Malaysia’s presence was felt across a wide spectrum of vendors and sires. Out of 353 catalogued lots, 265 were sold—of which Malaysian buyers accounted for 12%, a significant footprint in one of the Southern Hemisphere’s premier juvenile auctions. Leading the Malaysian charge was Mr Charles Leck, who acquired seven lots totalling $271,000, including the top-priced Malaysian purchase—Lot 356, a Time Test gelding out of Giggly, knocked down for $110,000. Selangor Turf Club followed closely with 11 purchases amounting to $257,000, reinforcing its commitment to sourcing quality bloodstock for domestic racing. Other notable buyers included Mr HY Cheng ($190,000), Mr WC Lim ($175,000) and Simon Dunderdale / Pinhook Bloodstock International ($160,000 across four lots). The diversity of sires—from Circus Maximus and El Roca to Farnan and Ardrossan—reflects a strategic approach to building depth and variety in Malaysian stables. Vendors such as Westbury Stud, Riversley Park, Kilgravin Lodge, and Waikato Stud featured prominently in the Malaysian acquisitions, underscoring the trust placed in New Zealand’s proven breeding and preparation systems. The sale also marked a milestone for emerging Malaysian syndicates and private buyers, with new names like Phoenix, Eternity Racing, and India Horse Club making their presence felt. Their participation signals a growing appetite for international investment and a belief in the long-term potential of New Zealand-sourced racehorses. As the Malaysian racing calendar looks ahead to 2026, these purchases are expected to inject fresh talent into the local scene, with several lots earmarked for debut campaigns in Malaysia. The Ready to Run Sale continues to serve as a vital pipeline for quality imports, and this year’s results reaffirm Malaysia’s status as a key player in the Asia-Pacific bloodstock market.

Some Hong Kong replays and the Ellerslie ones are clean videos i.e. no numbers on them. And indeed when Hong Kong replays do have the numbers the viewer still has to figure out the name of the horses. THe best and most efficient info is the in the running 4 still images of Hong Kong races after the event. -
Good for them. Still a useless time wasting gimmick you won’t make any profit from. -

The more complicated racing gets the more punters will disappear because they figure there is no edge or more importantly don't have the time to do research. Neither will they take someone's word for it. They will also figure the bookie has mulled over this info so definitely no edge for the punter and unlike the bookie the punter doesn't have the time. Now if TAB wants to drive turnover pay the trackwork watchers to report and pass on quotes from the trainers.
