Wandering Eyes

Former Ellis Park track superintendent Glenn Thompson passed away Saturday. He was 88. Thompson began his career at Ellis Park at age 16, working on the maintenance crew before eventually becoming track superintendent. Known for his unwavering commitment to track safety, Thompson often started his workday as early as 2 a.m. to prepare the surface for morning training. “I've always loved the sport, the horses and the people,” Thompson said in a 2019 interview. “Every day, I did my best for the horses. It was never just a job–it was a passion.” Raised in Henderson, where the Green and Ohio Rivers meet, Thompson balanced his time between farming and his duties at Ellis Park. His dedication to the track and its community was unparalleled, and he often remarked, “Horses are all I know. That's why I do this.” “Glenn was the heart and soul of Ellis Park's track maintenance for decades,” said Dan Bork, racing secretary at Ellis Park. “His dedication to the safety and care of our racing surface was unmatched. His work ethic and passion for the sport set a standard that will be felt for generations to come.” Thompson's son Clifton also served as a track superintendent, and his grandson Garrett worked alongside his father and grandfather. Thompson is also survived by his daughter, Rhonda; granddaughter, Delaney; siblings Billy Thompson and Sheila Echols; and his significant other, Tracey Keller. Funeral services will be held at 2 p.m. Saturday at Tomblinson Funeral Home in Henderson, with burial to follow at Fernwood Cemetery. Visitation begins at 10 a.m. The post Glenn Thompson Passes Away appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.

Cliff Goss has many adoring words when describing Casino Princess(NZ) (Casino Prince), but there was only one to sum up her performance in the Robert Bruce Clothier Memorial (1600m) at Matamata on Wednesday, tough. Casino Princess has put the 93-year-old horseman’s name up in lights over recent months, with a streak of consistent displays culminating in the Listed Tauranga Classic (1400m) crown in June. She found 1200m a touch sharp in the start following, but Goss was confident a mile would be right up her alley and with a four-kilogram claim courtesy of apprentice Gareth Lahoud, she was the top pick in the market closing at $2.40. Jumping away positively, Casino Princess was allowed to ease back and settled beautifully into fourth position off the fence, while Electric Time led the field up to the home turn. Casino Princess loomed strongly into contention and was set to chase down a game Chevron, who held the mare out until the final bounds where she pinned her ears back and found the line by a short head. Goss had plenty of admiration for Casino Princess following the race, a six-year-old he owns alongside Darryl Heaphy. “I was surprised, she was very tough,” Goss said. “I thought she had gone and would run second, but she knuckled down and fought the other horse off. “She’s just tough, even at home she’s the boss. It’s hard to get those types of horses, but she’s really good. “It was a very good ride, the reason I went for that (the claim) was because I thought the track might be pretty heavy and with 53(kg) on her back, she should win. “There is a mile here next month, that’ll be her next race.” The race Goss was referring to is the Listed Team Wealleans Matamata Cup (1600m), which will be run at the Waikato venue on October 5. For Lahoud, the win got the young hoop on the board for the season, and it was also his first success under new employer Chris Wood. “She’s a tough mare, she just keeps finding and finding. She didn’t handle the ground too well, but she just keeps fighting,” Lahoud said. “I saw him (Chevron) in the last furlong and thought I am going to catch him, but she just put her head down. “I’m very happy with him (Wood), he keeps me humble and working hard and he’s got me riding well.” Purchased for just $5,000 by Goss and Heaphy via gavelhouse.com in December 2019, the daughter of Casino Princess has won six of her 13 starts and more than $140,000 in stakes.

What 2024 Moir Stakes Where Moonee Valley Racecourse – Melbourne, Victoria When Saturday, September 7, 2024 Prizemoney $750,000 Distance 1000m Conditions Weight For Age 2023 winner Imperatriz (5) | T: Mark Walker | J: Opie Bosson (56.5kg) Visit Dabble Sparks are set to fly when a star-studded field assembles at the Moonee Valley 1000m on Saturday for the 2024 Moir Stakes. Four Group 1 winners are in the field, while a string of up-and-coming sprinters are looking to set an early mark for the spring. Can the new-season three-year-olds stand up in weight-for-age company? Or will proven types like I Wish I Win or Chain Of Lightning exert their class? 2024 Moir Stakes odds Estriella — the boom horse from Melbourne’s autumn carnival — heads up the Moir Stakes betting at $3.50, drifting slightly from the opening quote of $2.80 after drawing barrier eight. Golden Slipper winner Lady Of Camelot has been backed in from $5 to $3.80 after drawing well in barrier two, while proven Group 1 sprinter I Wish I Win at $5 is the only other runner in single figures with horse racing bookmakers. Three-year-old sprinters Coleman ($11) and Hayasugi ($15) are the best of the rest. 2024 Moir Stakes speed map The Moir Stakes is often won within the first 100m. Lady of Camelot from barrier two looks to be the likely leader, with Caballus and Estriella needing to come from wide gates to land close to the speed. Mornington Glory and Coleman will likely lob just behind the leaders, with Johnny Rocker and Hayasugi settling midfield with a touch of cover. Peter Moody & Katherine Coleman duo I Wish I Win and Chain Of Lightning will likely be run off their feet early, but both will be charging home late.

Join MarantelliBet Moir Stakes 2024 preview & form Lady Of Camelot has never run a bad race in her life, and in her first start as a three-year-old, the reigning Golden Slipper (1200m) champion is going to take some catching. With just 50kg on her back under Zac Lloyd, the pair’s chances were handed a massive boost when drawing barrier two while other likely speed influences drawn out on the track. She was grabbed on the line in a hotly run Blue Diamond Stakes (1200m) to suggest if she goes quickly in the first half of the race, she can keep bobbing late inside the final 100m. With all bar Mornington Glory coming to the Moir first-up, a fitness edge could prove beneficial for Gavin Bedggood’s in-form sprinter. The son of Shalaa was a handy winner in Listed grade last time out after being forced to travel three wide at this course and trip. Gate one is key to his chances, considering he lacks a bit of class on his rivals, but on the back of a breakneck speed, Mornington Glory will get his opportunity to pounce. Estriella may finish the spring as one of the best sprinters in the country, but the wide draw at the Moonee Valley 1000m first-up has to be a concern. She dominated against her own age group throughout the autumn before a somewhat disappointing run against the older girls in the Robert Sangster Stakes (1200m). Blake Shinn will likely get caught three wide from barrier eight, but she might just prove too good for her rivals. Hayasugi, I Wish I Win and Chain Of Lightning will all be launching late, with the unique surroundings potentially bringing them undone over the 1000m. Still, any one of those winning would not shock. 2024 Moir Stakes selections & best bets Selections: 8 LADY OF CAMELOT 2 MORNINGTON GLORY 8 ESTRIELLA 9 HAYASUGI $100 betting strategy $100 win Lady Of Camelot (#8) @ +280 with Neds Moir Stakes 2024 final field 1.

There is no time like early spring to start dreaming of Derby glory, and that is the case for connections of impressive Sandown winner Giddy Up Warrior. The son of Saxon Warrior is a graduate of last year’s New Zealand Bloodstock Ready To Run Sale and has been widely promoted through media personality Gareth Hall’s SEN radio show Giddy Up, after which the gelding is named. Prepared by Ben, Will and JD Hayes, Giddy Up Warrior relished getting out to 1500m to prevail as the $2.25 favourite at his third raceday start, having put the writing on the wall when runner-up to Delivering at Sandown last start. “Every start he has just improved and even today he was still a bit raw,” Ben Hayes said. “When he hit the front, he wobbled around and didn’t quite know how to put them away but it was a great ride by Mark Zahra. “He had a beautiful run, came down the middle of the track and it was good to see him win. “There was good speed and he relaxed and did everything right. It is great for Gareth and his ownership group and a good way to get in his good books. “Credit to my brother JD. Gareth and JD teamed up and they picked this horse up from the Ready To Run Sale in New Zealand so it has been a nice quick turnaround for everyone and they have enjoyed it. “We are hoping he can get out over a bit further. He has got to tell us every time when we ask him to but he is bred to. He is a lovely long horse, and he is only improving into the preparation, and he could be a sneaky Derby chance or something like that.” Winning rider Mark Zahra was also impressed with the performance. “It was a good win. He feels like a horse that will get over a bit of ground,” Zahra said. “I was hoping I’d be a spot closer to be honest but I didn’t have the speed so I had to travel where I could. “I was stuck behind a horse in front and as froggy (Craig Newitt) does, he pinched a margin (on runner-up Brullen). It was a good effort as he had to quickly change gears as they put four or five lengths on me, and he toughed it out and was good across the line.” By former Coolmore shuttler Saxon Warrior, Giddy Up Warrior is out of the handy staying mare Persian Star, who won seven races including the Listed Andrew Ramsden Stakes (3200m). Th Lindsay Park went to $140,000 to purchase Giddy Up Warrior from the draft of Riversely Park at last year’s Ready To Run Sale. The A$2 million VRC Derby (2500m) at Flemington is the long-range target on November 2. View the full article

What Cranbourne Races Where Cranbourne Turf Club – 50 Grant St, Cranbourne VIC 3977 When Thursday, September 5, 2024 First Race 1pm AEST Visit Dabble Cranbourne Turf Club is set to host a stacked nine-race meeting on Thursday, September 5. A near-perfect spring day is forecast, and with the track already a Good 4, there should be no excuses for fancied runners throughout the day. The rail comes out 7m for the entire circuit, with the Cranbourne races commencing at 1pm AEST. Best Bet at Cranbourne: Western Conqueror Western Conqueror has improved with each run this campaign and, at the fourth time of asking, has found the right race to break maiden ranks. The three-year-old gelding has been run down in the shadows of the post in his last two starts, but he is set to gain a relatively uncontested lead on Thursday. With the rail out 7m, it could favour those up on speed, and look for Western Conqueror to take advantage of that. Best Bet Race 3 – #14 Western Conqueror (4) 3yo Gelding | T: Lloyd Kennwell & Lucy Yeomans | J: Blake Shinn (57kg) +220 with PlayUp Next Best at Cranbourne: Fretta Fretta put in an eye-catcher first-up at Sandown on July 24 before a bit of a forgive run last time out. The Frankel mare has seemingly found a weak BM64, and stepping up to the 2000m for just the second time, she will take some holding out. There should be a genuine tempo over 2060m, and as long as Fretta handles the 60kg, Damian Lane can guide her to a third career victory. Next Best Race 8 – #6 Fretta (10) 5yo Mare | T: Mick Price & Michael Kent (Jnr) | J: Damian Lane (60kg) +340 with Bet365 Best Value at Cranbourne: Sienna Clare Nick Ryan’s Sienna Clare hit the line strongly first-up at Echuca on August 11. He was beaten by two lengths after 31 weeks away from the track, so he should derive great benefit from that run. Jamie Mott will have him settled in the second half of the field, but with even luck, he can overpower his rivals at the 1200m this time around.

Lux Libertas winning at Matamata on Wednesday. Photo: Kenton Wright (Race Images) Lux Libertas overcame plenty of adversity early in her life, but the four-year-old left unfortunate beginnings behind her when completing a winning hattrick at horse racing bookmakers. In the hands of Warren Kennedy, Lux Libertas jumped away positively from the inside draw and settled one back on the fence, while the 12-horse field stayed in close quarters throughout the running. Nearing the home turn, Kennedy moved off the rail and hit the lead soon after straightening, with the mare game in fighting off a strong late surge from Baronet to score by a long neck. Kennedy has been aboard Lux Libertas at each of her three successes and indicated she is deserving of higher targets. “I thought it was a very good win, especially on a testing track like it was today,” he said. “She’s run on heavy tracks and handled it well, she’s big and strong and it was a good win. “Although the margin wasn’t big, it was better than what it looked like. She’s a filly that we’ve been settling and the way the track was running today, it looked like it would be on-speed. “I didn’t want to be caught not getting a run and switching ground looking for runs, so I went for the trail and she never really switched off. She travelled up really hard and found a good kick off that, Opie’s loomed up to me but she’s found extra gears. “Three in a row is not easy to do, she’s been placed really well by Lance and Andrew and when I first won on her, I said she was a stakes filly. “Hopefully they’ll step her up now to that level and see how she competes there.” Kylie Bax, who co-owns the mare bred by her parents, Graham and Helen-Gaye Bax, alongside JML Bloodstock, revealed that after the birth of Lux Libertas was far from smooth sailing. “She’s a very special girl, she’s got a big heart and is a lovely filly,” Bax said. “She had a rough start to life, her mother didn’t want to know her, so I think she just relishes all the love and attention she gets from Wexford, she wants to be here. “The mother died after a while, but we had another mare that needed a foal at Blandford and there you go, she was adopted out. “I pre-train her and broke her in, and I think she’s got a lot of class. I don’t think a better track will be any problem at all, she’s got a lot of heart.” Horse racing news View the full article

Pearl Of Alsace during her exhibition gallop at Cambridge Synthetic last week. Photo: Kenton Wright (Race Images) Quality mare Pearl Of Alsace is back on track to open her spring campaign ahead of a later than originally anticipated involvement in the Hawke’s Bay Spring Carnival. Tavistock’s daughter will resume on Saturday at Ruakaka, where stablemate and Group 1 Melbourne Cup (3200m) hopeful Mahrajaan will also be in action. The Sir Peter Vela-bred and raced Pearl Of Alsace failed to trial to the satisfaction of trainers Shaune Ritchie and Colm Murray at Taupo last month, but they have been encouraged by her subsequent progress. “She came back from a spell in superb condition, she put a lot of weight on and with muscle comes a bit of fat that we’ve had to work off,” Ritchie said. “We got her rolling and ran out of time to get her fit enough for the Group One (Tarzino Trophy, 1400m) first-up. “They just don’t win when they blow that hard after under-performing in a barrier trial. “Since the trial, she’s had a sizzling exhibition gallop at Cambridge last week and she’s currently up at the beach and had a good gallop on Wednesday morning.” Ritchie is confident she can make her presence felt at Ruakaka before attention turns to Hawke’s Bay. “She will strip ready enough for this race for sure and obviously we are expecting her to improve and be at her peak for the final leg at Hastings (Group 1 Livamol Classic, 2040m),” he said. “Kelly Myers is going to ride her and it’s a good booking, she is riding very well. “She is going to need to perform on Saturday and I am confident that she will and then we’ll go to the Arrowfield Stud Plate (Group 1, 1600m) before the Livamol.” The stable’s 3200m specialist Mahrajaan will be second-up in the Tai Tokerau Cup (2200m) after delivering a pleasant surprise when a resuming third on the course over 1400m. “I expected him to run last when it started raining, I was worried that he wouldn’t get going at all,” Ritchie said. “Every prep we’ve given him he’s come back with his head down lower and hit the line stronger and it’s encouraging signs that he can round a race off like he did the other day. “We’re getting him up over ground earlier than most Melbourne Cup (Group 1, 3200m) aspirants. “He has compressed the weights, but we’d like to bank a bit of money for the flight over and the accommodation and he’s ready to run a big race.” As long as he performs up to expectations, Mahrajaan will cross the Tasman to continue his build-up. “If he goes well, he will have his next run in Melbourne and I’m keen to give him a look at Flemington, so he’ll run in the Bart Cummings (Gr.3, 2500m),” Ritchie said. “After that, I thought a race like the Moonee Valley Gold Cup (Gr.2, 2500m) might suit because it’s set weights and penalties and falls 10 days before the Melbourne Cup.” Meanwhile, the stable’s rising staying star Nereus will spearhead the team at Hastings under Opie Bosson following his resuming fifth. “He didn’t cop the Ruakaka track last time and he had a good blow and he’s improved a good deal,” Ritchie said. “He should be extremely competitive and we’ve decided to put the blinkers back on him. We’ve only done that once and he accelerated quickly at Trentham to win by three and a-half lengths. “We’ll make a call after Saturday and we’re hoping to get him to Melbourne, but he’s got to get up in the ratings, so this is a race we’re keen to try and win. “We’ll get some advice from Opie whether we need to use the blinkers when we step to 2000m plus.” The Waikato Stud-bred and raced Nereus won four times last preparation, including victory in the Group 2 Awapuni Gold Cup (2100m) before finishing sixth in the Listed Mornington Cup (2100m) Horse racing news View the full article

Ka Ying Rising is a five-time winner from seven starts. It’s easy to see why trainer David Hayes is excited about Ka Ying Rising, the sprinting sensation who was last season crowned Hong Kong Champion Griffin and Most Improved Horse. Returning in Sunday’s (8 September) HK$3.72 million Class 1 HKSAR Chief Executive’s Cup Handicap (1200m) at Sha Tin, the four-year-old begins a campaign that Hayes hopes encompasses a HK$26 million Group 1 Hong Kong Sprint (1200m) tilt. “The plan is for his fourth race to be the Hong Kong Sprint. After this (Sunday), he’ll have two more ‘prep’ races. I didn’t want to wait to bring him back in those races because I stopped him early last season. He’s had a nice break and he needs to get racing,” Hayes said. The HK$5.35 million Group 2 Premier Bowl Handicap (1200m) and HK$5.35 million Group 2 BOCHK Private Banking Jockey Club Sprint (1200m) shape as potential second and third runs. The five-time winning Ka Ying Rising closed his debut campaign with a smart victory in the HK$4.2 million Group 3 Sha Tin Vase Handicap (1200m) under a featherweight impost (115lb), while on Sunday he carries 135lb as the highest rated runner in the race. “He’s first-up and will carry a big weight, so whatever he does there’s a lot of things to say that he’ll be getting better and better as the ‘prep’ goes on. I think he’s done enough to say that he’ll be very competitive and go very close,” Hayes said. “Any horse who can go from a rating of 52 to 111 in a single season – they’re pretty smart.” The bay finished second in a turf barrier trial last Saturday over 1000m at Sha Tin, cruising through his hit-out under jockey Zac Purton in a time of 57.32s behind Magic Control. Purton rides again this weekend. “Because it’s close to the race, we didn’t let him go too hard. He still ran fast time and I thought he looked pretty good doing it without being put under pressure. “He’s always been a bit on the slim and angular side. He’s stronger than he was last season, for sure. I think we’ll see a stronger version of him when he parades on Sunday,” Hayes said. The New Zealand-bred Ka Ying Rising has carried 135lb to success previously, doing so in Class 3 as he got the better of Call Me Glorious, who subsequently won two more races last term by a combined eight and three quarter lengths. “He’s first-up, big weight and a possible wet track – that’s not easy for any horse, however, he did carry a big weight as a three-year-old in Class 3, so he’s a proven weight carrier. Some horses can’t carry weight, but he can,” Hayes said. Hayes is also represented by Harmony N Blessed (115lb) in the feature race. Flying Ace (131lb), Lucky With You (127lb), Majestic Knight (127lb), Packing Treadmill (123lb), Beauty Charge (119lb), Superb Capitalist (118lb), Beauty Waves (115lb) and Baby Crystal (115lb) are also engaged. “It might be a bridge too far for him (Harmony N Blessed), but there’s no races to run in him and he needs the run,” Hayes said. Hayes also saddles Sunny Baby, Youth Power, Metro Warrior, Snowalot, Amazing Run, Gallant Crown, Master Mastermind and Awesome Treasure this weekend. “He (Master Mastermind) trialled very well a couple of times last season and he trialled well last Saturday,” Hayes said. With more horses in his care, Hayes is optimistic of bettering last season’s score of 47 wins. “I would be very disappointed if I couldn’t beat last year’s tally, because last year I had around 48 horses for most of the year and this year I’m starting with 65. Hopefully it’ll be a significant improvement on last year,” he said. Horse racing news View the full article

Sydney trainer Joe Pride is eyeing some lucrative targets with last weekend’s impressive Rosehill winner Ceolwulf (NZ) (Tavistock). The four-year-old gelding has returned from a Classic season which concluded with a runner-up finish in the Gr.1 Australian Derby (2400m), with Pride surprised by the new-found dash from the son of Tavistock. “I wasn’t expecting a performance like that on Saturday, given last preparation he was just grinding away. He’s been sharper in his work, and I thought his trials were very sharp,” Pride told RSN. “It was a little bit hard to get a line on his first-up run, but gelding is the making a lot of horses and I would suggest that this is going to be another case in point. Both him and Tom Kitten have come back and put together performances that they seemingly weren’t capable of last season.” Despite acknowledging that Ceolwulf is still not the complete package, which could necessitate a shorter campaign, Pride has a big opinion of the horse. “He might get another couple runs into this prep and not put the flag up, but it doesn’t bother me if he can’t. It will come in time, and it might be the autumn. It might still be the spring. I don’t know, but he’s a really exciting horse,” Pride said. “I know that this horse in 12 months’ time, even six months’ time is going to be a very different looking horse. “So, with that in mind, you know, there’s that delicate balance. How far do I push him and how much harm will I do in doing so? I want to have this horse around for a few seasons.” Pride said he would likely proceed as planned to the Gr.3 Kingston Town Stakes (2000m) at Randwick on September 21, although the A$1 million 7 Stakes (1600m) on the same day was also in the mix. “I’m pretty confident we’re going to go to the Kingston Town with him,” Pride said. “I’ll probably throw in a nomination for the 7 Stakes, the old George Main, but I think now that we’ve got his confidence up, putting him in another race that he is a very good winning chance in is probably the smartest thing to do with him. “I don’t mind getting him to the 2000m and I think he’s a versatile horse where anywhere between a mile and 2000m will suit at his next start. “If he’s able to put in another performance like he did on Saturday, maybe we can have a go at one of these nice Group Ones. The other race I’ve got in mind for him is the Hill Stakes (Gr.2, 1900m) which is on the same day as the Might And Power (Gr.1, 2000m) in Melbourne. “The Hill Stakes is worth A$2 million and it’s a Group Two, so it’s a PVL (Peter V’landys) special and it’s a good race.” Bred by Cambridge Stud, Ceolwulf has won two of his 11 starts but is a multiple Group One performer with A$766,650 in earnings to date.

Epimeles ridden by John Allen winning the ANZAC Day Stakes at Flemington. (Photo by Reg Ryan/Racing Photos) Epimeles “pulled up really well” after his gallop at Moonee Valley on Tuesday morning, as he gears up for his spring return at the track this Saturday following a minor setback. The talented three-year-old son of Arrowfield Stud’s Dundeel was initially scheduled to race in the Group 3 McNeil Stakes (1200m) last Saturday, but will now target the Listed McKenzie Stakes (1200m) at The Valley instead. “He’s a big, roomy, big-striding horse that sort of likes those bigger tracks, but he was on the right leg. He got on the right leg today and that was the main thing,” co-trainer Natalie Young, who partners with Trent Busuttin, told Racing.com. “He’s quite a versatile horse, he’s got good gate speed, can sit up on speed, and he can also take a little bit of a sit. “He’s forward enough, fit enough, kicked off over 1300 metres last time, and he’s back to the 1200 metres, but he goes good fresh and he’s one of our nicest three-year-olds.” Horse racing news View the full article

Trainer Paul Messara. Racing NSW stewards have been informed that Clear Thinking has experienced a minor setback and will not be participating in The Kosciuszko (1200m) at Randwick on October 19. The five-year-old mare, sired by Dubawi and trained by Paul Messara and Leah Gavranich, is unbeaten in her three career starts. Her most recent victory was in a Class 3 Highway Handicap over 1200 metres at Randwick. Before her withdrawal on Tuesday, she was considered one of the leading contenders with horse racing bookmakers for the race. Meanwhile, Scone-based trainer Rodney Northam has also withdrawn his five-year-old gelding, Palazzo Prince, from the $2 million contest. Palazzo Prince sustained an injury to his off-side shoulder during trackwork. Horse racing news View the full article
