Debuting Friday for Mark Glatt and Muir Hut Stables, FORMULA ROSSA (f, 3, Vekoma–Fay Na Na, by Majestic Warrior) stalked off a heavily-wagered Bob Baffert runner Brilliantly (Uncle Mo), surged to the front at the quarter pole and put that rival away to cruise home a new 'TDN Rising Star'. Breaking just a touch behind the favorite, the 4-1 shot settled third as stablemates Brilliantly and Cooey (Girvin) battled into the far turn. As Cooey faded on the rail, Brilliantly pushed on and opened up a gap but Formula Rossa drew closer with an outside bid at the quarter pole and impressed in the final sixteenth to win first-time out under Mike Smith.

By Mike Love Wish Me Luck will be looking to continue the success of Hayden and Amanda Cullen’s brilliant start to their training partnership at Ashburton today. The five-year-old Vincent gelding is looking to go back to back in the Gallagher Insurance Ashburton Cup over 3200m after winning the Amberley cup on Waitangi day. “He’s come through Rangiora really well. He seems bright and he’s trained on great,” said Amanda Cullen. It will be Wish Me Luck’s first attempt at the extreme distance of 3200m but that does not concern Cullen. “He’s such a genuine racehorse. The more practice from a stand he gets the better.” To be driven by the country’s top driver Blair Orange, Wish Me Luck is a pronounced favourite at $2.05 for the Cup (2.43pm). “We will leave it up to Blair to assess things based on how he gets away.” Wish Me Luck has won six of his 17 race day starts, while placing on seven occasions. Other chances in the event include the Steve Harding trained Audacity, while Dance Till Dawn is in the market for Robert and Jenna Dunn. The Cullens also prepare Bonnie’s Girl in Race 8, the Allenton Pharmacy Fillies and Mares Mobile Pace over 1700m, again with Blair Orange in the sulky. “She wasn’t one hundred percent in her gait at Oamaru last start. But we took her to the trials since then and the report was that she was much better.” “We are expecting a better run but it’s not an easy field so we will just leave it up to Blair and see how she’s travelling.” The Cullen combination have won three from 12 so far with four placings in what has been a dream start for the pair. “It’s been really good and all is going well.” And things are looking cherry in the near future after some quality purchases at the recent NZB Standardbred National yearling Sales with five quality purchases.

Godolphin's First Resort (Uncle Mo) will scratch from Saturday's $175,000 John Battaglia Memorial at Turfway Park after exiting a workout earlier this week with stiffness in his left hind leg, according to trainer Eoin Harty. The 2-1 morning-line favorite was set to make his 3-year-old debut following a victory in the GII Kentucky Jockey Club last fall at Churchill Downs. He worked a half-mile in :51.20 (8/11) at Turfway Tuesday. “I worked him (Tuesday), and by Wednesday he was a little stiff behind,” Harty said. “He hasn't really improved, so we're erring on the side of caution to get him back to 100 percent before he runs again.” The John Battaglia Memorial will award the top five finishers qualifying points on a 20-10-6-4-2 scale toward a spot in the starting gate for the GI Kentucky Derby.

Saturday's G3 BetUK Winter Derby at Southwell has become a target race for the Gosdens with four renewals falling the way of Clarehaven since 2019, so the presence of the yard's unexposed Military Academy (GB) (Fastnet Rock {Aus}) in the latest edition generates extra intrigue. Impressive at Salisbury in September, Isa Salman and Abdulla Al Khalifa's 4-year-old was in a class of his own last time when making his all-weather debut with an authoritative win in Kempton's Listed Floodlit Stakes in November and could be one of the stable's lurkers for 2025. “Military Academy was progressive last year. He is coming here on the back of a good performance in the Floodlit Stakes and, with natural progression, hopefully he can pick up from where he left off,” jockey Robert Havlin said. “He is very laid-back at home and is as fit as we can get him. We are using this as a stepping-stone to a race in Bahrain next month and this should leave him spot-on. All that being said, we are expecting a big run.” Making a solid line-up are Sheikh Mohammed Obaid Al Maktoum's Listed Quebec Stakes winner Royal Champion (Ire) (Shamardal), who was runner-up in the GI Canadian International two years ago, the Listed Doonside Cup and G1 Champion Stakes eighth scorer Persica (Ire) (New Bay {GB}) and the Listed Wild Flower Stakes and Winter Derby Trial winner Champagne Prince (GB) (Lope De Vega {Ire}).

Just a Touch (Justify), a fantastic second behind subsequent GI Breeders' Cup Classic winner Sierra Leone (Gun Runner) in last spring's GI Toyota Blue Grass Stakes at Keeneland, is nearing a return to action. Last seen coming up just a head short for Qatar Racing, Resolute Racing and Marc Detampel in the Iowa Derby July 6, the 4-year-old has posted seven workouts at Brad Cox's Payson Park base this year, most recently breezing five furlongs in 1:01.80 (3/13) Feb. 15. “He's doing great,” said Hunter Valley Farm's Fergus Galvin, who serves as an U.S. advisor to Qatar Racing's Sheikh Fahad. “We gave him a nice bit of time off last year after the Iowa Derby. He had a lot thrown at him in the spring, tough for a young horse. We turned him out here at the farm for three months. He did a couple of months at WinStar to leg him back up, then he went down to Payson. Brad has been delighted with him, training great. He's very bullish about him for this year.” A very sharp debut winner sprinting in the slop at Fair Grounds, Just a Touch was immediately thrown into the deep end and ran extremely well in defeat in his next two starts, earning a spot in the starting gate for the GI Kentucky Derby after finishing second in both the GIII Gotham Stakes and Blue Grass, respectively. He earned a career-best 96 Beyer Speed Figure in the latter. Last of 20 at a well-backed 11-1 on the first Saturday in May, Just a Touch faced the starter just one more time in 2024, his aforementioned runner-up finish as the 3-5 favorite at Prairie Meadows. Just a Touch could resurface in a first-level allowance in “about two or three weeks,” per Galvin. “We'll start him off nice and easy, most likely in a 1x somewhere,” Galvin said. “Brad's gonna step him up, I would think, pretty quick after his first race. He's training exceptionally well and has always been a good training horse, that's why we put him on such a trail last year.” Galvin added, “Fingers crossed, given his size and pedigree, we think he'll have a big year.” After RNA'ing for $170,000 as a KEESEP yearling, the Don Alberto Corporation-bred Just a Touch brought $125,000 from Scanlon Training & Sales as a FTKOCT yearling, then $300,000 from Galvin after breezing in a bullet :9 4/5 as an OBSAPR 2-year-old. Just a Touch's dam Touching Beauty (Tapit), an $800,000 KEENOV purchase by Don Alberto in 2014, won the 2010 GIII Comely Stakes at Aqueduct. The Justify x Tapit cross has also produced Champions Dream, one of 18 graded/group winners worldwide for the 2018 Triple Crown winner.
