Making Waves: Public Speaks In Canada

[Wandering Eyes]

   In this series, the TDN takes a look at notable successes of European-based sires in North America. This week's column is highlighted by the victory of former multiple graded stakes hero Public Sector in the Great White North.

 

Kingman's Public Sector Wins In Canada

Michael and Jules Iavarone and co-owner Saffie Joseph, Jr.'s Public Sector (GB) (Kingman {GB}) visited the winner's circle for the first time since taking Belmont's GII Hill Prince Stakes in the autumn of 2021 when capturing a Woodbine contest in July (video). The 6-year-old entire is also a winner of the GII National Museum of Racing Hall of Fame Stakes and the GIII Saranac Stakes.

Bred by The Kathyrn Stud, the son of Parle Moi (Ire) (Montjeu {Ire}) was originally a 170,000gns Tattersalls October Book 1 yearling by for Seth Klarman's Klaravich Stables by Mike Ryan in 2019. He joined his current ownership after bringing $35,000 out of the 2023 Keeneland Horses of Racing Age Sale from Meah/Lloyd Bloodstock on behalf of Iavarone when offered by ELiTE. The fourth foal for his dam, Public Sector's latest sibling is a full-brother born in 2023. A grandson of G3 Prix Chole heroine Di Moi Oui (GB) (Warning {GB}), he is also related to stakes winners King Vega (GB) and Lady Boba (GB), who are both by Lope De Vega (Ire).

Juddmonte's Kingman has 42 winners from 69 runners (61%) in America. A total of eight of those are stakes winners (11%), with three-time Grade I winner Domestic Spending (GB) his flagbearer.

 

Muhaarar Gelding A Winner At Del Mar

Hronis Racing's Bran (Fr) (Muhaarar {GB}) emerged a winner at Del Mar for John Sadler after nine months on the bench (video). The Lordship Stud-bred had won the GII Turf Sprint Stakes at Kentucky Downs in September of 2023, then resurfaced to race just twice last year, with a second in the GII Eddie D Stakes his best effort.

The son of Best Intent (GB) (King's Best), also a winner of the GIII Daytona Stakes, was a €36,000 Arqana October yearling turned €80,000 Arqana Horses-of-Racing Age Sale graduate when purchased by MAB Agency from the later sale. A half-brother to the multiple stakes-placed filly Atakama (Fr) (Le Havre {Ire}), Bran is also a half to that filly's full-brother, the 3-year-old gelding Orfeo (Fr). Kin to Mr. Prospector Group 1 winners Coup De Genie and Machiavellian, Bran's second dam is G2 Prix d'Astarte heroine Hydro Calido (Nureyev).

Haras du Petit Tellier's Muhaarar has seven winners from 15 runners (47%) in the U.S. One of four stakes winners for his sire in that locale (27%), Bran is joined by fellow graded winners Motorious (GB) and Evening Sun (GB).

Without Parole Represented By First U.S. Winner

John Gunther homebred Without Caution (Without Parole {GB}) became the sixth winner for his first-season sire (by Frankel) and first in the U.S. when prevailing at first asking at Saratoga for trainer Cherie DeVaux (video).

The $95,000 Keeneland September yearling is out of Mama Tembu (Street Cry {Ire}), and is her fourth foal. Her latest produce is a filly of 2024 by Good Magic. This is the same family as successful stallion and American Triple Crown winner Justify.

Newsells Park stallion Without Parole was bred and raced by the Gunthers. He won the G1 St James's Palace Stakes at Royal Ascot in 2018.

Repeat Winners

Just two starts removed from taking the G1 Jenny Wiley Stakes at Keeneland in April, Beaute Cachee (Fr) (Literato {Fr}) returned to the winner's circle for Louis Lazzinnaro, Madaket Stables, Michael Caruso and Michael Dubb in the GIII Matchmaker Stakes at Monmouth Park (video). The 5-year-old is trained by Chad Brown.

 

The first stakes race today at Monmouth Park on Haskell Day was a fantastic one! #7 BEAUTE CACHEE ($11.20) goes gate-to-wire holding off #6 Sacred Wish to win the $300,000 Matchmaker Stakes (G3). @FrankieDettori was in the irons for Chad Brown. Congrats to all the connections! pic.twitter.com/YdjPJWEu0Q
