What Kempsey Races Where Kempsey Race Club – Warwick Park, North St, Kempsey NSW 2440 When Tuesday, July 30, 2024 First Race 12:55pm AEST Visit Dabble Country racing heads to Kempsey Race Club on Tuesday afternoon, with a competitive quickfire seven-race program set for decision. The rail is in the true position the entire way around, and with no significant rainfall forecast in the lead-up, punters can expect a genuine Good 4 surface throughout proceedings. The opening event is scheduled to get underway at 12:55pm local time. Kempsey Best Bet: Craig’s One Craig’s One has been a work-in-progress for the Glen Milligan barn, only having one official barrier trial on August 1, 2023. The son of Super One couldn’t have been more impressive, however, going on to score by a half-length as he powered through the line under his own steam. The 2kg claim of apprentice Teighan Worsnop appears ideal in this contest, and with gate two to aid him on his journey, Craig’s One appears perfectly placed to score on debut. Best Bet Race 2 – #1 Craig’s One (2) 3yo Gelding | T: Glen Milligan | J: Teighan Worsnop (a2) (59kg) +150 with PlayUp Next Best at Kempsey: Supreme Command Supreme Command scored an impressive first-up maiden victory at Taree on July 13, bounding clear to score by 3.4 lengths on the bottomless conditions. He had been luckless the year prior to that victory, holding his ground in provincial company before being transferred to the Glen Milligan barn from Anthony Cummings. He relished the heavy track after resuming from a 325-day spell, and although he needs to go to another level getting back on top of the ground in this BM58, Supreme Command will prove hard to hold out when the whips are cracking. Next Best Race 3 – 1 Supreme Command (6) 3yo Gelding | T: Glen Milligan | J: Matthew Bennett (61.5kg) +360 with Neds Next Best Again at Kempsey: So Outrageous So Outrageous ran into a smart one in the form of Laizabout at Taree on July 23 and looks primed to go a couple placings better second-up from a 242-day spell. He needed the run first-up and lacked race-day fitness, hitting the line evenly as the eventual winner careered away with the prize by 7.5 lengths. He gets the opportunity to make amends on a firming deck, and with barrier two allowing Teighan Worsnop to take closer order, expect So Outrageous to give a much better showing in the first leg of the Kempsey quaddie.

Feature wins do not come easy but Trelawney Stud bred Lim’s Kosciuszko (Kermadec) made his win in Sunday’s S$300,000 Lion City Cup (1200m) look like a walk in the park. That was also Lim’s Kosciuszko’s third consecutive win in the Lion City Cup since he dominated Singapore’s premier sprint race in the past two years, which was an achievement given only Singapore’s legendary sprinter, Rocket Man had more Lion City Cup wins to his name with four wins from 2009 to 2012. Yet, the win on Sunday was arguably the easiest watch of them all. The son of Kermadec and the Keeper mare Jacquetta, Lim’s Kosciuszko gave his opposition no look-in from the start after jockey Marc Lerner got busy early on the odds on favourite before settling him in second on Sky Eye’s flank. After the Frenchman gave Lim’s Kosciuszko some reins at the 350m, he quickly put two lengths on Ghalib and Ace Of Diamonds while some racegoers eagerly waited to see if Golden Monkey could make inroads late. The Tim Fitzsimmons-trained gelding, who finished third and second in this race in 2022 and 2023 respectively, tried valiantly but the ground he had to make up in the final 250m was a bridge too far, hence an eased-down Lim’s Kosciuszko won by just under two lengths. “He’s done everything he possibly could and he’s just a little superstar,” said winning trainer Daniel Meagher. “He has his little issues and needed to be kissed and cuddled, but come race day, he just performs like no other. “It’s very special to have him and I don’t know if I’ll ever get another one. “Marc held onto him as much as he could (in the straight) and we’ve got bigger races in mind, so we didn’t need him to have a tough run. “It’s a good preparation for the three big races coming up.” Meagher was referring to the Raffles Cup (1600m) on 11 August, the Queen Elizabeth II Cup (1800m) on 7 September and the Grand Singapore Gold Cup (2000m) on 5 October. Lerner concurred he did all he could to hold onto his mount for as long as possible, albeit the circumstances were against him. “He (Lim’s Kosciuszko) was a bit fresh today,” said Lerner, who knocked in a double on the day. “But we were expecting the Pacific horse (Pacific Vampire) to go forward, so you always have a plan B, C, D and as many as you want! “He was the best horse in the race, so I rode him accordingly. “He got the job done because I believe he’s not one or two, but many classes above the rest.” Bred by Brent and Cherry Taylor’s Trelawney Stud, who on Saturday were named New Zealand Breeder of the Year, Lim’s Kosciuszko was passed in twice at the New Zealand Bloodstock Sales and then sold privately after winning his first and only trial in New Zealand when under the care of Clayton Chipperfield. With 21 wins from 25 starts, Lim’s Kosciuszko has amassed over S$3.3 million in earnings for the Lim’s Stable. View the full article

4th-Del Mar, $78,000, Alw (NW2$X)/Opt. Clm ($80,000), 7-28, 3yo/up, 1m, 1:36.43, ft, neck. PARENTING (c, 3, Justify–Iadorakid, by Lemon Drop Kid) broke his maiden at first asking by 2 3/4 lengths at Santa Anita Apr. 26, which earned him a 'TDN Rising Star'. Ready for his stakes debut and first two-turn test, the colt drove down the Arcadian course in fine style to win by 7 1/2 lengths June 9. Supported at the windows at 40 cents on the dollar, Wathnan Racing's own took the field into the first turn with determination though he was closely shadowed by Hero Status (Flatter). The 3-year-old left the rail open up the backstretch and Arrowthegreat (Arrogate) was keen to shoot to the lead before the far turn. Not backing down from a challenge, the 'Rising Star' took back the front by the top of the lane and got to the wire in the nick of time over a charging Hero Status. A $750,000 OBS April buy for Gandharvi Racing, Parenting raced under that stable's colors in his first pair of races. Last year, the winner's dam foaled a colt by Vekoma. Iadorakid is herself a half-sister to Canadian champion GISW El Tormenta (Stormy Atlantic), GSW Zero Tolerance (Mizzen Mast) and to a course-record setter at Kentucky Downs.

SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y.–Two and a half months after winning the GI Kentucky Derby as co-breeders and co-owners of long shot Mystik Dan (Goldencents), Four G Racing picked up its first victory at Saratoga Race Course Sunday with another runner overlooked by handicappers. With a powerful run through the stretch under John Velazquez, Reining Flowers (Midnight Storm) completed a rally from well off the pace to win the sixth race, a $100,000 maiden special weight contest for 2-year-old fillies, by a length over Good Long Cry (Long on Value). Four G's homebred filly completed the 1 1/16 miles on the inner turf course in 1:44.11. Sent off at 14-1 in the field of 10, she paid $30.80. Sharilyn and Brent Gasaway and their twins, Logan and Lauren, operate as Four G Racing with four broodmares and interests in a number of other horses, most notably Mystik Dan. Reining Flowers is the second runner and winner out of their broodmare Mi Fiori (Congrats), who was pretty much headed for life as a pet after she was retired from racing early in 2018 “We bought her at the 2-year-old sale,” Sharilyn Gasaway said. “Then she got claimed away from us and it took me a year and a half to find her. When she got back into racing, I claimed her back and I retired her at home.” The Gasaways lost Mi Fiori on a $50,000 claim on June 5, 2016 and re-acquired her for $17,500 on Dec. 7, 2017. They raced her just one more time. “Then her half-brother, Gucci Factor (Gio Ponti) won a graded race (GIII Poker Stakes in 2019),” Gasaway said. “People started calling me to buy her, so I said, 'if they're going to breed her, I'll breed her.'” Mi Fiori's first foal, the 3-year-old filly Crown Imperial (Classic Empire), was second by a nose in the Bolton Landing Stakes at Saratoga last year and went on to win the $500,000 Untapable Stakes at Kentucky Downs less than a month later. Four G and trainer John Ortiz aimed for Saratoga again this summer and brought Reining Flowers to upstate New York after she finished second in a pair of turf sprint stakes at Horseshoe Indianapolis. Brent and Sharilyn Gasaway with John Ortiz | Sarah-Andrew “She had to run in Indiana because there were no 2-year-old races at Churchill in the spring,” Ortiz said. “We just went over to Indiana just to get the experience over the turf, and were hoping to get a win. But I'm glad we got the win here.” Following the same route they used last year with Crown Imperial, Ortiz figured that Reining Flowers would turn in a big performance at the Spa. “I know this filly very well,” he said. “My dad started her in Ocala and he just said that this is an exact replica of Crown Imperial. We were expecting this. This is not surprising. it's not an upsetting win for us.” Starting from the outside post position, Velazquez guided Reining Flowers toward the inside for a ground-saving trip. They were ninth by Good Long Cry led the way through fractions of :23.80, :50.27 and 1:15.25. Favorite Opulent Restraint (Dubawi {Ire}) moved up into a threatening position in the stretch, but Reining Flowers and As Catch Can (Mo Town) closed with more resolve. Reining Flowers got to the wire first and As Catch Can was a head behind Good Long Cry and a nose better than Opulent Restraint. As is often the case in the two-turn 2-year-old maiden races at Saratoga, the top three finishers all had been in competition before. “The experience for sure helps,” Ortiz said. You can't go wrong when you're riding a Hall of Famer either. I was very confident coming in here. Johnny got on her in her last work. He absolutely loved her. He said she was so professional, acted like an older horse. Same thing when we were in the paddock today. He says, 'I remember her. We're going to ride her like an older horse.' And he did. He's Johnny V.'” While it was far from the winner's circle at Churchill Downs after America's biggest races, Gasaway enjoyed her stable's first Saratoga win, and with a homebred. “It's just more special when it's your own, when it's one that you bred and you believed in,” she said. “What a blessing.” #10 Reining Flowers stretches out and breaks her maiden in R6 at Saratoga for trainer @johnnyortiz24 with @ljlmvel aboard!

REINING FLOWERS (f, 2, Midnight Storm–Mi Fiori, by Congrats) hit the board in both prior starts at Horseshoe Indy including over two turns going 7 1/2 furlongs June 24. Breaking from the outside, the 14-1 longshot stretched out yet again to 1 1/16 miles facing tougher company and took her time from the gate, running near the back of the field in no hurry through fractions of :23.80 and :50.27. Pacesetter Good Long Cry (Long On Value) carried her speed into the far turn but Reining Flowers was making progress and set down in the final furlong to drive past that rival and out-finish a charging pair in a driving finish to win by a length. The half-sister to Crown Imperial (Classic Empire), SW & GSP, $426,747, Reining Flowers is out of a half to GSW Gucci Factor (Gio Ponti).

MCKINZIE STREET (c, 2, McKinzie–Karpathos, by Tale of the Cat), the 4-1 second choice in his first start since bringing $290,000 at OBS April, had to deal with pressure from heavy favorite Emerald Bay (Nyquist) for much of the early running as the front pair put up a half in :44.93. But off the turn, it was McKinzie Street who had something left, turning back the favorite at the furlong marker and coming home in good order to graduate on debut by 3 1/2 lengths. The front pair was well clear as Emerald Bay was another five lengths ahead of the third-place runner. The fourth winner by his freshman sire (by Street Sense), McKinzie Street is out of a half to both GSW Ikigai (Whywhywhy) and MGSW and sire Kantharos (Lion Heart).

SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y.-A healthy field of 12 was entered Sunday for the 97th running of the $1-million GI Whitney Stakes, which will be run at Saratoga Race Course Saturday. National Treasure (Quality Road), from Hall of Fame trainer Bob Baffert, will be the favorite as he is ranked as the top older horse in the country in the weekly NTRA poll. Evidently, he is not scaring anyone off. Hall of Fame trainer Todd Pletcher has a trio of horses entered in Bright Future (Curlin), Charge It (Tapit) and Crupi (Curlin). Add Post Time (Frosted), who was a distant second to National Treasure in the GI Metropolitan Handicap at the Spa last month, to the mix. Trainer Phil Bauer decided Sunday that he would roll the dice with Warrior Johny (Cairo Prince). Owned by Rigney Racing LLC, Warrior Johny earned his Whitney ticket on opening day at the meet when he won an allowance race by four lengths. “[The Whitney] wasn't on the radar until he ran opening day,” Bauer said Sunday morning at his barn on the Oklahoma Training Track. “It was like, 'Holy cow!' The last three races he has had around two turns, each one got better. Up here, he ran a hole in the wind against a real good cast.” Warrior Johny is a 5-year-old gelding and has four wins, three seconds and five thirds in 19 career starts. He has two wins in three career starts at Saratoga. This will be just the second graded stakes race that Warrior Johny has run in. The first was last year when he was seventh, beaten 22 1/2 lengths by Bright Future in the GI Jockey Club Gold Cup at the Spa. “I'm still scratching my head about the Jockey Club Gold Cup,” Bauer said. “I went into that with a lot of confidence. I thought he would run really well.” Warrior Johny has thrived at Saratoga, Bauer said. Even though he doesn't have the resume of some of the other Whitney runners, Warrior Johny's speed figures compare with several of his rivals. “If he runs his last race back, then I think he can be right there,” Bauer said. “Yes, we [he and Richard Rigney] take shots, absolutely. Early in our careers, we took a lot of shots with the wrong kind of horses. We are taking chances now for realistic opportunities.” The field for the Whitney, in post position order: 1-Post Time (Brittany Russell); 2-Disarm (Gun Runner, Steve Asmussen); 3- National Treasure; 4-Warrior Johny; 5-First Mission (Street Sense, Brad Cox); 6-Il Miracolo (Gun Runner, Antonio Sano); 7-Crupi; 8-Tumbarumba (Oscar Performance, Brian Lynch); 9-Bright Future; 10-Skippylongstocking (Exaggerator, Saffie Joseph Jr.); 11-Arthur's Ride (Tapit, Bill Mott); 12-Charge It. Pletcher, Repole Not Committing Fierceness As A Travers Player The day after Fierceness (City of Light) won the GII Jim Dandy Stakes at Saratoga, Hall of Fame trainer Todd Pletcher said there would be no decision on whether or not the inconsistent colt would resurface in the GI DraftKings Travers Stakes on Aug. 24. “Talking to [owner] Mike [Repole] a little bit last night, we don't want to make any decisions too soon,” Pletcher said outside his barn at the Oklahoma Training Track. Fierceness, once considered the best 3-year-old colt in the land, was making his first start since a crushing 15th-place finish as the favorite in the GI Kentucky Derby on May 4. In the race before that, he was dominant, winning the GI Florida Derby by a record 13 1/2 lengths. His Achilles heel, though, is spacing between races. Repole said earlier this year that he thought his horse needed eight weeks between starts. Do the math: the Jim Dandy and Travers are fourth weeks apart. “Twenty-eight days is probably not ideal for him,” Pletcher said. “The initial impression is that he came out of the race well, he looked good this morning.” Repole, who loves winning everywhere, but maybe a little bit more at the Spa, was also hedging on whether Fierceness should target the Travers. “We might have to wait,” he said. “Last year, I would have told you, '100%.' There is no way with this horse that I can say that. He's a hard horse to figure. When he does something special, he can beat anybody. We will consider the Travers, absolutely. But we will consider to pass it, also.” If Fierceness does not run in the Midsummer Derby, he could run next in the GI Pennsylvania Derby at Parx on Sept. 21. Lukas Plans To Try Again In Travers With Seize The Grey Sure, there was a little disappointment that Seize the Grey (Arrogate) was never a factor in the GII Jim Dandy Stakes on Saturday. But D. Wayne Lukas will never concede. Despite the fourth-place finish in the Jim Dandy, Lukas plans on bringing back his GI Preakness Stakes winner in the GI Travers Stakes on Aug. 24. “We are not overreacting,” Lukas said while sitting in his office at this barn at the Oklahoma Training Track Sunday morning. “He is a quality horse and we did not see it [Saturday]. There is no part of him that showed up.” Seize the Grey won the Preakness on the front end and, in his last start, the GI Belmont Stakes at Saratoga on June 8, was prominent early before fading and finishing seventh. On Saturday, Seize the Grey, owned by MyRacehorse, and jockey Jaime Torres never got close to the leaders and finished 12 lengths behind winner Fierceness. “He didn't get on the butt end of the speed horses, that is what Jaime and I talked about,” Lukas said. “When he wasn't there, I knew right then and there. I knew Jaime would try to do what he could, but he did not have the horse to do it. I don't blame Jaime, I blame the horse.” There is another reason to target Seize the Grey to the Travers, that being the incentives MyRacehorse could receive thanks to the stud deal signed with Gainesway Farm. The base deal, according to MyRacehorse, is $3.5 million. If Seize the Grey were to win the $1.25-million Travers, the bonus would be $3 million. If he were to win the GI Breeders' Cup Classic, add another $4 million. Lukas, though says, the horse will go the Midsummer Derby only if he is doing well. Going into the Belmont, Lukas thought he had a big chance; in the Jim Dandy maybe even a bigger one. “They give you a reality check once in a while,” Lukas said. “You think you are in La-La land and then, Boom!,” he said.

Also Ran: Popstyle, Roshiell My Belle, Hollywood Beauty, Kip the Distance. Scratched: Baytown Butterfly, Sharedashenanigans, Shkhara Fire, Spankerboom. Dreamaway returned off a debut win over Keeneland's main track in April to remain undefeated with an impressive score in Monmouth's Colleen Stakes Sunday. Sent off the 4-5 choice while trying the turf for the first time, the grey shot to the front, carving out an opening quarter mile in :22.03 as Popstyle (Win Win Win) and Me Governor pressed from the outside. Shaking loose turning for home, the 3-1 second choice Lemonpeppasteppa mounted a rally to get up to second, but was unable to reel in the free-running winner, 5 1/4-lengths clear of her nearest rivals. Me Governor held on for third. “I did not feel concerned about the [other] speed,” said winning rider Paco Lopez. “There was a little pressure on the turn with [Popstyle]. I stopped feeling the pressure so I went inside. The first part was easy but the second had a little pressure but she ran very good.” Winning trainer Wesley Ward was equally impressed with his filly's performance. “Besides being a very talented filly she is a total sweetheart. That's what we love best about her,” he said. “They sent her to me in September and we broke her and she is one of those fillies in the stall that is bucking and kicking and happy all day long. She has never stopped being that way. Anybody can ride her. She's the happiest horse in the world when she gets to the track. I always thought that she would be better on the grass, just from the way she moves.” Heavily favored at 1-2 while facing colts in her Apr. 21 debut in Lexington, she battled for most of the way before prevailing by a head over Clever Again. “Actually, her first race to me was better than this one and I will tell you why: She's a tiger when she gets in front like she did today,” Ward added. “Sometimes when she gets behind, she doesn't quite work as well. When she gets to the front she's a demon. She won't let anyone by her. She's in the group if not better than the other six winners I have had in this race, especially with the way she ran today.” Remarking on what's next with the speedy grey, Ward explained, “We're thinking about sending her next to California for the Speakeasy Stakes [Oct. 5 at Santa Anita]. We've been looking to get one out there and this may be the one to where we can get settled in. Based on how she ran today, she is Breeders' Cup caliber. That race will solidify if she is a Breeders' Cup horse or not.” The sixth black-type winner for his Freshman sire, Dreamaway is out of GI Del Mar Oaks Dream Dancing, herself a daughter of Champion Older Mare Beautiful Pleasure (Maudlin). An earner of over $2.7 million, the sister to Grade I winner Mecke was also campaigned by the Oxleys. In addition to Dreamaway, Dream Dancing also has a year older filly by Gun Runner named Beautiful Dancer in addition to a yearling filly by the Three Chimneys sire and a colt foal by Justify. She was bred back to Flameaway. Click for the Equibase.com chart or VIDEO, sponsored by FanDuel TV.

The Chosen Vron (Vronsky) exited his win in Saturday's GI Bing Crosby Stakes at Del Mar in fine shape and trainer Eric Kruljac is already thinking of options to get the classy Cal-bred to the GI Breeders' Cup Sprint. “He's doing super,” Kruljac said Sunday morning. “He wasn't tired and cleaned up his feed. He looks like a million bucks.” The Chosen Vron won his sixth straight race while successfully defending his Bing Crosby title. The race awarded the 6-year-old gelding an automatic berth in the Breeders' Cup Sprint. Last year, Kruljac trained The Chosen Vron up to the Breeders' Cup following his victory in the Bing Crosby, but the trainer may take a different approach this year. “We're much more likely to look for an out [a prep race],” Kruljac said. “Last year, I backed off. I could have trained him a lot harder. I don't know if it would have made a difference or not. We'll definitely be much more aggressive. He seems be no worse for wear this morning.” The Chosen Vron finished a distant fifth to Elite Power (Curlin) in last year's Breeders' Cup Sprint. Dr. Venkman (Ghostzapper) may have earned himself a shot at the Aug. 31 GI FanDuel Racing Pacific Classic with his win in Saturday's GII San Diego Handicap. “He came back good,” trainer Mark Glatt said of the 4-year-old gelding. “Certainly it [the Pacific Classic] will be on our radar after today's performance.” After finishing second in the seven-furlong GII Triple Bend Handicap June 1, Dr. Venkman was making his first start at 1 1/16 miles in the San Diego. “I was as confident as you can be,” Glatt said of the decision to start in the San Diego versus the Bing Crosby. “He didn't really surprise me but, until I see it, I don't believe it and he passed with flying colors. It's a struggle stretching out with horses for the first time. But we trained him to hopefully back off the bit. He's always been very push button, so I was as confident as can be.” R3 Racing's Katonah (Klimt) returned from a one-year layoff to finish a respectable second in the San Diego. The 5-year-old gelding was also doing well Sunday morning. “A great, great comeback,” trainer Chief Stipe O'Neill said. “The Pacific Classic is our dream goal.” Last year's Pacific Classic winner Arabian Knight (Uncle Mo), in his first race since finishing fourth in last year's GI Breeders' Cup Classic, finished a fading fourth in the San Diego after setting much of the pace.
