What Kembla Grange Races Where Kembla Grange Racecourse – Princes Highway, Kembla Grange NSW 2526 When Tuesday, May 28, 2024 First Race 12:35pm AEST Visit Dabble NSW racing heads to Kembla Grange on Tuesday afternoon, with a quickfire seven-race program set for decision. The rail is out +6m for the entire circuit, and although the surface is rated a Soft 5 as of Monday, a favourable forecast in the lead-up should mean an upgrade into the Good range prior to the opening event at 12:35pm AEST. Best Bet: Monte Kate Monte Kate was unable to cling to victory at this course and distance on May 18, but she looks perfectly placed to make amends in this Class 1 contest. The daughter of I Am Invincible attempted making every post winner last start but faded late due to the testing Heavy surface. Getting back on top of the ground should be ideal, and with Tommy Berry taking the reins this time, watch for Monte Kate to boot clear with the prize. Best Bet Race 4 – #5 Monte Kate (7) 3yo Filly | T: Robert & Luke Price | J: Tommy Berry (57.5kg) +200 with Bet365 Next Best: Vanquished Vanquished steps back significantly in grade after a bold display at Randwick on May 15. The gelding by Vancouver tried to lead all the way on the Kensington circuit but gave way due to a lack of fitness first-up in Heavy conditions. This Class 1 should prove far more manageable for the Gai Waterhouse & Adrian Bott-trained three-year-old, and with some upside compared to a few key rivals, Vanquished will prove hard to hold out. Next Best Race 2 – #1 Vanquished (3) 3yo Gelding | T: Gai Waterhouse & Adrian Bott | J: Jean Van Overmeire (61.5kg) +260 with Unibet Next Best Again: Goodlucktome Goodlucktome appears to have a stack of ability heading into his debut for the Ciaron Maher barn. The son of Written Tycoon has won back-to-back barrier trials, with the latest piece of work at Rosehill on May 17 catching the eye as he cruised through the wire under his own steam. Jason Collett may be forced to drag back from barrier 11, but with plenty of time to wind up, watch for Goodlucktome to power over the top. Next Best Again Race 3 – #8 Goodlucktome (11) 2yo Colt | T: Ciaron Maher | J: Jason Collett (56.5kg) +300 with Neds Tuesday Kembla Grange quaddie picks – 28/5/2024 Kembla Grange quadrella selections Tuesday, May 28, 2024 5 1-8 1-2-6 5-8-10 | Copy this bet straight to your betslip Horse racing tips View the full article

What Taree Races Where Manning Valley Race Club – Racecourse Dr, Taree NSW 2430 When Monday, May 27, 2024 First Race 11:35pm AEST Visit Dabble The new week of racing gets underway at Taree on Monday afternoon, with a competitive nine-race program set for decision. The rail is in the true position the entire circuit, and with no rain forecast in the lead-up, the surface should upgrade from the Heavy 10 rating at the time of acceptances. Punters should expect a Soft 5 track, with the opening race scheduled for 11:35am local time. Best Bet at Taree: Exorealm Exorealm debuts for the Kristen Buchanan barn on the back of two soft pieces of work. Particularly his most recent effort at Gosford caught the eye, with the son of Exosphere cruising through the wire under his own steam. He appears wound-up and ready to go first-up, and with star country racing hoop Aaron Bullock set to take the reins, Exorealm will prove hard to hold out in this maiden contest. Best Bet Race 3 – #2 Exorealm (5) 3yo Gelding | T: Kristen Buchanan | J: Aaron Bullock (59kg) +200 with Neds Next Best at Taree: Naahro Naahro has hit the line well in back-to-back starts and appears set to shirk the maiden tag on Monday. The Lohnro bred gelding has been getting too far back in slowly run races, and with the opportunity for a change of tactics could do the trick for the winless three-year-old. Expect Andrew Gibbons to launch forward from barrier seven, and with no speed on, watch for Naahro to tick-over a couple soft sectionals to score at start eight. Next Best Race 4 – #2 Naahro (7) 3yo Gelding | T: Kris Lees | J: Andrew Gibbons (59.5kg) +220 with PLayUp Best Value: Bangetta Bangetta takes a dramatic drop back into Class 2 company and looks perfectly placed for success by the Kris Lees barn. The daughter of Hellbent didn’t go a yard on the Heavy surface at Randwick on May 15, with the Kensington circuit playing on-speed favours throughout the afternoon. This is the easiest opposition she’s faced for some time, and at the each-way price with online bookmakers, Bangetta looks a big price in this. Best Value Race 5 – #2 Bangetta (7) 3yo Filly | T: Kris Lees | J: Andrew Gibbons (59.5kg) +600 with Dabble Taree Monday quaddie tips Taree quadrella selections Monday, May 27, 2024 1-10 1-3-5-8 1-2-4-5-7 1-10 | Copy this bet straight to your betslip Horse racing tips View the full article

Will Rogers Downs was hit by a tornado that tore through Claremore, Oklahoma Saturday night. The tornado, which caused heavy damage to homes and businesses in the area, was an EF-2, according to initial surveys by the National Weather Service. The Enhanced Fujita Wind Scale rates tornados from zero to five, with five being the strongest. “The property was in the path of the tornado,” Travis Noland, a spokesman for Will Rogers Downs, told Daily Racing Form Sunday. “At the property itself, there is some pretty significant damage, but we're really grateful from a life, safety respect, there were no reports of any serious injuries.” Will Rogers concluded its Thoroughbred meet May 15. Horses remaining on the grounds Saturday were transported to other facilities throughout the morning Sunday. A post on the track's Facebook page Sunday morning said, “Will Rogers Downs remains closed as we continue assessing the damage from last night's storm.” The post Tornado Strikes Will Rogers Downs appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.

3rd-Woodbine, C$70,594, Msw, 5-26, 2yo, f, 5f (AWT), :58.50, ft, 4 1/2 lengths. CARLISLE BAY (f, 2, Speightstown–Bicolour, by Tiznow) made her first start as the 6-5 choice here.

With a steady rain coming down at Churchill Downs, La Marinera (Instilled Regard–Curlin Supreme, by Curlin) beat the boys and delivered a first win to his sire on Sunday afternoon. The juvenile tracked just off of Coming in Hot (Maclean's Music) up the backstretch, but when it was time to make her move around the far turn she responded. Powering down the lane, the filly won by a length over a late-running Strummin (Flameaway). The final running time was :59.97. Instilled Regard has 50 foals of racing age to his credit. Lifetime Record: 3-1-2-0. Sales History: $3,700 '22 KEENOV, $1,000 '23 KEESEP. O-John Acevedo; B-Shadowbrook Farm; T-Kelly A. Fernandez. #2 La Marinera hangs on to graduate in R3 at Churchill Downs!

The Wine Steward (Vino Rosso), most recently seen finishing second in the May 11 GIII Peter Pan S., is being considered for either the 10-furlong GI Belmont S. or the seven-furlong GI Woody Stephens S., both at Saratoga June 8. “It depends on the trip, but I think he can get it [the distance]– he's bred to get it and should be able to,” David Staudacher, who co-owns the colt with Paradise Farms Corp., said regarding the 10-furlong Belmont distance. “I think he likes the track up there, so we'll see what [trainer] Mike [Maker] decides to do. We just have to see how the horse is doing. He's a really nice horse and we don't want to rush him. We'd love to be in the Belmont, so we have our fingers crossed.” The Wine Steward worked four furlongs in :48.00 (23/180) at Churchill Downs Saturday. “I was there and he worked pretty easy and looked good,” said Staudacher. “Mike is going to have to decide on which race in the next week or so. We're still undecided. He had a couple tough races, so we've got to make sure he bounces back right.” The Wine Steward opened his career with three straight wins last summer, including victories in the Bashford Manor S. at Ellis Park and the Funny Cide S. at Saratoga. He concluded his juvenile campaign with a runner-up effort in the GI Claiborne Breeders' Futurity and opened 2024 with a runner-up effort in the Apr. 12 GIII Stonestreet Lexington S. He was 3/4 lengths behind Antiquarian (Preservationist) when runner-up in the Peter Pan.

A late absentee from last month's G1 Satsuki Sho (Japanese 2,000 Guineas) due to lameness, Danon Decile (Jpn) (Epiphaneia {Jpn}) gained compensation with an emphatic victory in Sunday's G1 Tokyo Yushun (Japanese Derby) at Tokyo Racecourse, the second leg of the Japanese Triple Crown. The 17-strong field featured six of the first seven from the Satuski Sho, including the unbeaten winner Justin Milano (Jpn) (Kizuna {Jpn}), runner-up Cosmo Kuranda (Jpn) (Al Ain {Jpn}) and sixth Regaleira (Jpn) (Suave Richard {Jpn}), who was attempting to become the first filly to win the Tokyo Yushun since Vodka (Jpn) (Tanino Gimlet {Jpn}) in 2007. Regaleira was considered to be the main danger to favourite Justin Milano in the betting, with Danon Decile only the ninth pick at odds of 46/1. Breaking sharply from gate five, Danon Decile was settled in a share of third with Justin Milano as Ecoro Walz (Jpn) (Black Tide {Jpn}) led the field in the early stages. Having saved ground on the inner throughout, he quickly settled matters with an explosive turn of foot once hitting the front entering the final 300 metres, ultimately beating Justin Milano by two lengths. Shin Emperor (Fr) (Siyouni {Fr}), fifth in the Satsuki Sho on his previous start, was over a length further back in third, with significant outsider Sunrise Earth (Jpn) (Rey De Oro {Jpn}) and Regaleira making up the first five finishers. It was a first win in the Tokyo Yushun for trainer Shogo Yasuda, while Norihiro Yokoyama became the oldest Group 1-winning jockey at the age of 56 as he celebrated his third success in the race after those of Logi Universe (Jpn) (Neo Universe {Jpn}) in 2009 and One And Only (Jpn) (Heart's Cry {Jpn}) in 2014. “I thought that the pace would be normal or slow since there were no horses that wanted to set the pace,” said Yokoyama. “But as Ecoro Walz took the front, we were able to wait in good position until the straight, and the horse responded strongly from there. I'm happy to have won the Derby but I'm also glad that my decision to not race him in the Satsuki Sho was not wrong. Danon Decile is a horse with great potential, and we knew that he would be a great horse if we took good care of him. I'm really grateful to the horse.” Danon Decile was having his fifth start in the Tokyo Yushun and his first since winning the G3 Keisei Hai at Nakayama in January. He opened his account at the second attempt as a two-year-old before ending that campaign with a fourth-place finish behind Shin Emperor in the G3 Kyoto Nisai S. in November. Big upset in the Japanese Derby! (#東京優駿) 46/1 shot Danon Decile turns over 2000 Guineas winner Justin Milano to score in the Tokyo Grade One!#レーシング #ダノンデサイル pic.twitter.com/tHeGJUEr0G — At The Races (@AtTheRaces) May 26, 2024 Pedigree Notes Danon Decile becomes one of four Classic winners and six Group 1 winners for Epiphaneia, who won the G1 Kikuka Sho (Japanese St Leger) himself in 2013. He later doubled his tally at the top level when also winning the Japan Cup the following year. Already in 2024, Epiphaneia had been responsible for the G1 Oka Sho (Japanese 1,000 Guineas) winner and G1 Yushun Himba (Japanese Oaks) runner-up Stellenbosch (Jpn), while last year another daughter, Daring Tact (Jpn), won both of those races before completing the Japanese Triple Tiara with victory in the G1 Shuka Sho. The first of Epiphaneia's offspring to win a Classic was Efforia (Jpn), who struck in the Satsuki Sho–as well as the G1 Tenno Sho (Autumn) and G1 Arima Kinen–in a brilliant three-year-old campaign in 2021. Bred by Shadai Farm, Danon Decile was sold to Danon Co Ltd as a yearling for ¥135,000,000 (around $992,667) at the JRHA Select Sale. He is the third winner from as many runners out of the GI Alcibiades S. and GI Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies runner-up Top Decile (Congrats).

A trio of graded stakes, led by the GI Gamely S. and GI Shoemaker Mile S., will anchor a stacked Memorial Day holiday program at Santa Anita on Monday. Making her first start since capturing the GI American Oaks Dec. 26, Anisette (GB) (Awtaad {Ire}) headlines a deep nine-horse field set for the Gamely. The Eclipse Thoroughbred Partners colorbearer also captured last term's GI Del Mar Oaks. Hall of Famer Richard Mandella will be represented by last-out local graded winners Ruby Nell (Bolt d'Oro) (GII Buena Vista S.) and the streaking Linda's Gift (Arrogate) (GIII Santa Ana S.). The rail-drawn Olivia Maralda (Ire) (Kodiac {GB}), a 725,000gns TATDEC purchase by Woodford Thoroughbreds last winter, heads west for trainer Will Walden following a rallying second-place finish while making her U.S. debut in a Keeneland allowance Apr. 20. Du Jour (Temple City) and Easter (Fr) (Exosphere {Aus}), the first two finishers across the line in the GI Frank E. Kilroe Mile S. Mar. 3, will meet again in the Shoemaker Mile. The field of 11 also includes returning 2023 GII Del Mar Derby winner Conclude (Collected) and GIII American S. Apr. 4 winner Johannes (Nyquist). The GII Hollywood Gold Cup will showcase a field of eight, including: GIII Californian S. Apr. 20 one-two-three Mr Fisk (Arrogate), Judge Miller (Curlin) and Mixto (Good Magic); and narrow GI Santa Anita H. Mar. 3 runner-up Subsanador (Arg) (Fortify). Trainer Chad Brown, meanwhile, will send out an imposing trio, led by unbeaten 'TDN Rising Star' and Memories of Silver S. Apr. 28 heroine Sweet Rebecca (American Pharoah) as he looks to secure a record-extending sixth victory in the GII Wonder Again S. at Belmont at the Big A. Monday's graded stakes action is rounded out by the GIII Steve Sexton Mile S. at Lone Star and the GIII Winning Colors S. at Churchill Downs.

The sight of a son of Galileo (Ire) out on his own from pillar-to-post at The Curragh might be something soon to be available only in re-runs, but on Sunday his son Chief Little Rock (Ire) offered at least one more exhibition in his honour as Wayne Lordan dominated the G3 Heider Family Stables Gallinule S. Coming on from his return third in Epsom's Listed Blue Riband Trial last month, the G2 Beresford S. and G3 Autumn S. runner-up who started as the 11-4 second favourite had clear daylight on his peers throughout and continued to gallop strongly to the line to inflict a 3 3/4-length defeat on Stromberg (GB) (Iffraaj {GB}).

8th-SA, $54K, Msw, 3-5yo, 6f, 7:30 p.m. In a race that also features the debut of Flightline's half-brother Eagles Flight (Curlin), breaking just to that runner's outside is VISCERAL (Violence) for the partnership of MyRacehorse and Edge Racing. Bought for $400,000 out of OBS March last year after working in :10, the grey or roan colt is the second foal out of a half to GSW San Pablo (Jump Start) and MGSP Slider (Prenup). Working out of trainer Mark Glatt's barn, Visceral has fired bullets in two of his last three works including a sharp five furlongs from the gate in :59 1/5 May 5 to be best of 42 at the distance.

Following the example of stablemate and fellow daughter of Too Darn Hot (GB), Darnation (Ire), who had dominated the G2 German 1000 Guineas less than an hour earlier, Clipper Logistics' Fallen Angel (GB) put her G1 1000 Guineas flop firmly behind her with a clear-cut success in the G1 Tattersalls Irish 1,000 Guineas at The Curragh to cap a red-letter Sunday for her sire. Only eighth at Newmarket, the Karl Burke-trained daughter of Agnes Stewart (Ire) (Lawman {Fr}) who had won the G1 Moyglare Stud S. here at two was ideally placed in a prominent position by Danny Tudhope with the pace only modest. Taking control passing two out, the 11-4 favourite bounded clear for a 2 3/4-length success from A Lilac Rolla (Ire) (Harry Angel {Ire}), with Ballydoyle's G1 Prix Marcel Boussac winner Opera Singer (Justify) two lengths further behind as a respectable third on her belated return.

Rebounding from a disappointing effort when beating only two rivals in the G1 1000 Guineas, Newtown Anner Stud Farm's Darnation (Ire) (Too Darn Hot {GB}–Monday Monday {Ire}, by Galileo {Ire}) was an authoritative winner of Sunday's G2 Wempe 104th German 1000 Guineas at Dusseldorf. Sent off the 13-5 favourite, last year's G2 May Hill S. and G3 Sweet Solera S. winner was handily-placed throughout by Adrie De Vries and stayed on strongly to take control a furlong out. At the line, the Karl Burke-trained homebred had 2 1/4 lengths to spare over fellow British raider Queues Likely (GB) (Massaat {Ire}), with Three Havanas (Ger) (Havana Grey {GB}) a nose away in third.

In rude health for Sunday's G1 Tattersalls Gold Cup at The Curragh, Chantal Regalado-Gonzalez's White Birch (GB) (Ulysses {Ire}–Diagnostic {GB}, by Dutch Art {GB}) readily put old rival Auguste Rodin (Ire) (Deep Impact {Jpn}) in the shade for a career-best success. Behind that Ballydoyle supremo in the Derby, the John Murphy-trained grey had returned this term to garner the track's G3 Alleged S. and G2 Mooresbridge S. and the backers were suitably respectful as his odds hardened to 15-8 before the off. Cruising under a confident Colin Keane with Auguste Rodin just ahead as they raced in mid-division, he was sent alongside that 11-10 favourite with a furlong to go and romped away from there for a comprehensive three-length success as Auguste Rodin ran eight lengths clear of Crypto Force (GB) (Time Test {GB}) in third.

A half-dozen years ago, Charlie Appleby mapped out a plan to send that year's G1 Dubai Sheema Classic winner Hawkbill (Kitten's Joy) to Hong Kong in an attempt to become the first overseas winner of the G1 Standard Chartered Champions and Chater Cup. Those plans were ultimately scuppered, owing perhaps in some part to a down-the-field finish by a then-unexposed Blue Point (Ire) (Shamardal) in the G1 Chairman's Sprint Prize the month prior. In the form of Rebel's Romance (Ire) (Dubawi {Ire}), Appleby surmised that he had the 'right horse' to try once again to crack the Group 1 barrier in one of the world's toughest racing jurisdictions. A hearty traveler, with feature wins on his resume in Germany, America, Qatar and most recently Dubai–where he landed a deep renewal of the Sheema Classic Mar. 30–the homebred continued his winning ways Sunday with a defeat of seven locals by a two-length margin that belied the dominant nature of the victory. Drawn widest in the field, Rebel's Romance was only fairly into stride beneath his regular rider William Buick, but with a long run to the first corner, there was plenty of time to slot in, and the gelding was allowed to roll forward–as has become his custom–to sit just off the flank of Moments In Time (Chi) (Lookin At Lucky). The pace was honest enough for the 2400-metre distance on a course that had taken plenty of rain through the week, and while the leaders had a bit of a break on the peloton down the back, things got a bit tighter as they hit the entrance to the second turn with a half-mile to go. Buick went for Rebel's Romance in earnest fully 600 metres from home, knowing full well he was sitting on a stayer of the highest class and that if something was going to catch them, they'd have to be pretty good. Moments In Time stuck on as long and as gamely as he could, but Rebel's Romance asserted his superiority a furlong and a half from home and cruised home an easy winner. Five G Patch (Ire) (Camelot {GB}) closed off well at the fence for second ahead of his stablemate La City Blanche (Arg) (Cityscape {GB}), reversing the first and second placings from the G3 Queen Mother Memorial Cup H. May 5. Moments In Time held fourth, Hong Kong Derby hero Massive Sovereign (Ire) (No Nay Never) was disappointing in sixth and three-peat seeking Russian Emperor (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) was only seventh in what was likely his final career appearance. Appleby is hopeful that Sunday's win will pave the way for further Godolphin participation in Hong Kong. The operation's last Hong Kong success came courtesy of Mastery (GB) (Sulamani {Ire}) in the 2010 G1 Longines Hong Kong Vase. “Having the right horse in Rebel's Romance, we felt he was a horse we could be competitive with and hopefully in the near future, for sure, we'll be looking forward to finding horses to coming over here,” the trainer said. “He's a gelded son of Dubawi, he loves his travels. He's a professional now and he's done plenty of travelling now. He prefers to be on a plane than actually in his stable. “The whole concept of Godolphin was built on being an international stable and hopefully dining at the top table as fortunately as we are today. Hong Kong racing is one of the pinnacles of racing and to come here, you have to have the right horse.” Buick, who received a fist bump from Hong Kong Jockey Club CEO Winfried Engelbrecht-Bresges on his way back to scale, added: “Hong Kong is a special place. I've been coming here for many years now and it's tough to win at any level. It's great to come here with a horse like Rebel's Romance and even better to win.” One race after Blue Point's aforementioned flop in 2018 with Buick in the boot, the Norweigian guided the mercurial Pakistan Star (Ger) (Shamardal) to a victory in the G1 QE II Cup. Rebel's Romance is likely to return to America for a race like the GI Sword Dancer Invitational S., a 'Win and You're In' qualifier for another crack at the GI Breeders' Cup Turf at Del Mar in November. From there, all roads could lead back to Sha Tin for the Vase the following month. Pedigree Notes: Rebel's Romance is a third elite-level winner in Hong Kong for the all-conquering Dubawi, joining the top sprinter Lucky Nine (Ire) and 10-furlong specialist Akeed Mofeed (GB). With the victory, Rebel's Romance leapfrogs Lord North (Ire) as Dubawi's leading money earner. Sheikh Mohammed's operation purchased Rebel's Romance's second dam Short Skirt, a half-sister to the multiple group-winning and multiple Group 1-placed Whitewater Affair (GB) (Machiavellian), for 1.4 million guineas ($2,839,305) at the 2006 Tattersalls December Mares sale and among her four other winners was G3 Nad Al Sheba Trophy winner Volcanic Sky (GB) (Street Cry {Ire}), while her unraced daughter Rose Law (GB) (New Approach {Ire}) produced Godolphin's Japanese listed winner and Group 3-placed Due Process (GB) (Daiwa Major {Jpn}). There is more Japanese black-type in the third dam, as Whitewater Affair accounted for multiple Japanese champion/Group 1 and poignant G1 Dubai World Cup hero Victoire Pisa (Jpn) (Neo Universe {Jpn}), as well as Group 1-winning miler Asakusa Den'en (GB) (Singspiel {Ire}). Rebel's Romance's G1 Jebel Hatta-winning half-brother Measured Time (GB) (Frankel {GB}) is scheduled to make a New York appearance as early as the GI Manhattan S. at Saratoga on the Belmont S. undercard June 8. Measured Time was a latest fourth in the G1 Dubai Turf Mar. 30. The most recent foal from Minidress is a yearling full-brother to Rebel's Romance.

Showing that she is now a regular presence in the top strata, Baron Edouard De Rothschild's Mqse De Sevigne (Ire) (Siyouni {Fr}–Penne {Fr}, by Sevres Rose {Ire}) battled to a third top-level victory in ParisLongchamp's G1 Prix d'Ispahan on Sunday. Needing all of the unique nine furlongs and 55 yards to get to Horizon Dore (Fr) (Dabirsim {Fr}), last year's G1 Prix Rothschild and G1 Prix Jean Romanet winner enjoyed the perfect tow under cover from Blue Rose Cen (Ire) (Churchill {Ire}) and benefitted from a typically nerveless Alexis Pouchin ride saving ground throughout. Coaxed through a gap to get to Horizon Dore in the shade of the post, the 6-4 favourite had a short head to spare there with Haya Zark (Fr) (Zarak {Fr}) 3/4 of a length away in third.
