The 13th edition of the Riders Up! East vs. West Jockey Karaoke contest kicked off to great success in Saratoga, and raised over $100,000 at the conclusion of the festivities, announced the Permanently Disabled Jockeys Fund (PDJF). Leading a competition reportedly as fierce as anything on the track, Michael and Matthew Straight commanded the crowd with their performance of “Lean on Me” by Bill Withers. They had the crowd on their feet and singing along, and the brothers left their competition in their wake as they secured a double by winning both the Judges' Choice and the People's Choice Award. The event was judged by LSU Racing's Randy Sarf; trainers Cherie DeVaux and Graham Motion; and by Hall of Fame jockey Angel Cordero. Held at the Vapor Night Club, an at-capacity crowd was treated to vocal talents and eye-popping costumes as well as a live auction. Tom Durkin served as emcee through the program and conducted the sale, which included a baseball bat signed by the Yankees' Aaron Judge. The item brought the evening's top bid of $9,500. The contest will shift west to the Del Mar jockeys, who will try to best their eastern counterparts Sunday Aug. 10. The festivities will be posted throughout the evening on all PDJF social media platforms, and after the judges name their favorite performance, the public will vote online for their favorite via Facebook and Twitter (X). Fans will also vote on the winners of both events to decide the 'Coast with the Most'. “General admission tickets (including one drink coupon) for each person are $75 with 7:45 p.m. entry to Belly Up in Solana Beach. A limited number of VIP tickets are available for $175, which includes early entry 6:00 p.m. local time, open reserved seats, two drink coupons, and a buffet dinner with the jockeys. Performances are scheduled to begin at 8:00 p.m. local time and will feature live and silent auctions and a cash bar. Patrons must be 21 years of age or older to enter the premises. Tickets may be purchased here and registration to bid on the silent auction is also available on the page. The post Riders Up!

4th-Ellis, $102,850, Alw, 8-4, (NW2TL), 3yo, 5 1/2fT, 1:00.97, fm, nose. LITIGATION (c, 3, Twirling Candy–Argue, by Storm Cat), unplaced in two tries in maiden allowance company at Gulfstream in March, benefitted from a class drop to graduate by better than three lengths in a rained-off $75,000 maiden seller in the Churchill slop May 30. A near 8-1 chance for a first-level allowance over this course and trip July 13, the homebred overcame an awkward draw to win clear and was the 3-5 jolly to maintain the winning streak here. Racing as a team inside of second favorite and recent Dade Park Dash Stakes hero Troubleshooting (Not This Time) in the second flight, Litigation was given the hurry-up by Mario Gutierrez to secure a three-wide run on the swing for home while keeping his chief market rival to his outside. It was a line of four at the head of the lane, as Dade Park Dash fourth Star's Image (Caravaggio) railed through, and though he looked all over destined for a runner-up effort when Troubleshooting struck the front just inside the furlong pole, Litigation counterpunched and was narrowly best in the finish. The winner is a half-brother to Slimey (Quality Road), SP, $265,964; and to SW Quality Response (Quality Road), who was sold to Australia's Yarraman Park Stud for $510,000 in foal to Authentic at Keeneland November in 2021. The colt's MSW & MGSP third dam Words of War (Lord At War {Arg}) was responsible for MGSW/MGISP sire E Dubai (Mr. Prospector) and 2000 GI Del Mar Oaks winner No Matter What (Nureyev), the dam of MG1SW champion Rainbow View. Argue is the dam of a yearling full-brother to Litgation and was most recently covered by Blame. Lifetime Record: 5-3-0-0, $165,769. Click for the Equibase.com chart.

Darren Filkins has been unanimously voted to fill the vacancy on the board of directors of the Thoroughbred Owners of California (TOC) created by the recent passing of John Harris, the group announced Monday. The CEO of Harris Farms since January 2022, Filkins has held a variety of agriculturally centered positions before joining Harris Farms, and is a known face in California. “I'd previously worked with Darren through some difficult issues and was impressed by his intelligence, forthrightness and integrity–two characteristics welcomed on any industry board,” said TOC Board member Ty Green, chairman of the Northern California Racing Affairs subcommittee. “Harris Farms has been a big part of the history of California racing over the past decades, and with the passing of Mr. Harris, asking Darren to continue the Harris industry legacy by serving on the TOC Board in his place seemed natural and in the best interest of racing. We are very happy he agreed to join us.” The post Darren Filkins Appointed to TOC Board appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
