A total of 196 juveniles changed hands during the session for total receipts of $15,573,000, a 17 percent gain compared with last year’s second session, when 213 horses sold for $13,272,500. The average price of $79,454 was up 28 percent from $62,312 last year, while the median of $48,500 climbed 21 percent from $40,000 last year. The buyback percentage rose from 12 percent in the 2013 sale’s second session to 19 percent on Tuesday. The $725,000 session topper by Tapit is the highest-priced juvenile of the sale so far, topping the $550,000 Mineshaft colt who led Monday’s opening session. The colt, who breezed a furlong in 10 1/5 seconds at last week’s under-tack preview show, is out of the stakes-winning and Grade 2-placed More Than Ready mare Ready For Fortune. De Meric Sales consigned the colt, as agent. The session’s highest-priced filly, and second most expensive offering overall, was a Harlan’s Holiday filly purchased for $525,000 by Donato Lanni, as agent for Kaleem Shah. Consigned by Eisaman Equine, agent, the filly breezed in 9 4/5 seconds last week. She is out of the winning Mr. Greeley mare Ruby Summer, dam of three winners from five starters. Through two sessions, OBS reported 380 horses sold for gross receipts of $27,543,500. a 11 percent increase compared with $24,904,500 from 415 sold in 2013. The two-session average of $72,483 marks a 21 percent improvement compared with $60,011 last year, while the $47,000 median is up 27 percent over $37,000 in 2013.

Those dreams were dealt a serious blow the first jump out of the gate, when Commanding Curve was mugged by Rise Up. Commanding Curve did well to rally for third, giving him 20 Kentucky Derby qualifying points. At the time, it looked like that might not be enough to get into the Derby, but defections by horses with more points – including Toast of New York, Constitution, Midnight Hawk, and Cairo Prince – have left Commanding Curve, as of Tuesday, officially just one spot away from securing a Derby berth. Stewart remains hopeful that Commanding Curve can get in, and his anxiety is assuaged by having climbed a much higher hill a year ago with Golden Soul. Last year marked the first Derby that Churchill Downs switched to a points system after three decades of using graded stakes earnings to determine the field. Golden Soul had a mere 14 points after his final prep, a fourth-place finish in the Louisiana Derby. He just did get into the Derby, then ran second to Orb at odds of 34-1. “It kind of all fell apart last year, and there’s a chance it could happen this year, too,” Stewart said Tuesday from his barn at Churchill Downs. “There are some behind us hoping to get in, too. “We knew that if he ran at least second in the Louisiana Derby, he was in. When he finished third, we knew it was risky business. It’s unfortunate some horses get hurt. You hate to see it. But you have to be ready if given the opportunity. You have to be ready if your number’s called, like any sport.” Commanding Curve has run twice this year. He was sixth under Robby Albarado in the Grade 2 Risen Star Stakes in February prior to the Louisiana Derby. “He finished really good [in the Louisiana Derby],” Stewart said. “Robby said he didn’t mind the dirt, didn’t mind the traffic.” Albarado has committed to Medal Count, the Grade 1 Blue Grass Stakes runner-up, for the Derby, so Stewart has secured Shaun Bridgmohan for Commanding Curve. Last fall, Commanding Curve scored the lone win of his six-race career over maidens at Churchill Downs with Bridgmohan aboard. “When you have a 2-year-old that wins a two-turn, mile-and-a-sixteenth race at 4 Barbara D. Livingston Dallas Stewart trained last year’s Kentucky Derby runner-up Golden Soul, and took the 2006 Kentucky Oaks with Lemons Forever. Churchill Downs in the fall, it makes you feel really good,” Stewart said. Stewart has yet to win the Derby, but he was an integral part of the team that prepared the filly Winning Colors for her Derby victory in 1988. Stewart, who eventually rose to be an assistant trainer with D. Wayne Lukas, was the exercise rider for Winning Colors at Churchill Downs after she arrived from Santa Anita. “She was a special horse,” he said. “I had never been around a horse like that. She was a real tough horse. She trained beautiful for the race.” Commanding Curve has had two works since the Louisiana Derby, both at Churchill Downs, including a strong five-furlong drill in 1:00.40 last Friday. His final work will be Friday or Saturday, depending on the weather, Stewart said. “We saw with the points situation last year that a lot of things can happen,” Stewart said. “You just have to keep your emotions down and train your horse.” The horse currently in the top 20 with the shakiest prospects of remaining in the Derby field is Chitu, who is scheduled to run Saturday in the Grade 3 Derby Trial. He is ranked 12th, with 54 points. Harry’s Holiday, tied on points with Commanding Curve but ranked higher, at 20th, owing to the tie-breaker (earnings in non-restricted stakes), is certain for the race, trainer Mike Maker said Tuesday, though a jockey assignment has not been made. Entries for the Derby are taken April 30, and posts are drawn later that day. In addition to the maximum of 20 in the main body of the race, up to four also-eligibles can be entered. Scratch time is 9 a.m. on May 2, the day before the Derby. BACK TO TOP STORIES Headline3 Romantica stands out in Bewitch By Marty McGee Juddmonte Farms has seen bigger days. After all, the powerhouse stable was represented by two-time European Horse of the Year Frankel as its most recent global superstar just a couple of years ago. Still, Thursday at Keeneland qualifies as a big day for the pink and green, considering that Romantica, a Breeders’ Cup runner-up, and Morpheus, a half-brother to Frankel, both will be in action on a ninerace card that starts at 1:05 p.m. Eastern. “I think we’re more hopeful than superconfident,” said Garrett O’Rourke, the American racing manager for Juddmonte. “We’ve already had some disappointment this meet with Emollient [third at odds-on last Friday in the Grade 3 Doubledogdare Stakes] and a few others, so I’m hesitant to get too cocky.” Nonetheless, it stands to reason that Romantica is strictly the one to beat in the Grade 3, $150,000 Bewitch Stakes, a 1 1/2-mile turf race carded as the eighth on the day, with a post time of 4:42. Switched over to Hall of Fame trainer Bill Mott after Andre Fabre sent her out to a sharp runnerup finish behind Dank in the Breeders’ Cup Filly and Mare Turf last fall, the now5-year-old Galileo mare has flourished in training toward her return. “She’s doing very well and has worked quite nicely since her arrival,” Mott said. O’Rourke said Romantica “obviously has the distance that should be to her liking. On form, she looks like the class of the race. With some luck, we can have a nice year with her.” Romantica is out of U.S. and European champion Banks Hill, and her second dam is Juddmonte’s elite producer Hasili. She won the Group 1 Prix Jean Romanet and a Group 3 stakes in France last year when trained by Fabre. With Joel Rosario riding, Romantica will break from post 9 as the 2-1 morningline favorite in the three-turn Bewitch, which drew 11 other fillies and mares and shapes up as an outstanding race. Among the other logical contenders are Left a Message, Viva Rafaela, Aigue Marine, and Inimitable Romanee. The Bewitch is the sister race to the Grade 2, $200,000 Elkhorn Stakes, which closes out the 15-day spring meet Friday. One race earlier Thursday, all eyes will be on Morpheus as the 4-year-old colt makes his U.S. debut when breaking from 5 Barbara D. Livingston Group 1 winner Romantica is scheduled to make her first start of 2014 in the Bewitch Stakes at Keeneland. post 1 under Jose Lezcano in a $64,000, third-level optional claimer (race 7, post 4:11) at 1 1/16 miles on Polytrack. Morpheus, also new to Mott’s care after being campaigned by the late Henry Cecil and his widow, Lady Jane Cecil, has won three of eight career starts. The son of Oasis Dream will be getting first-time Lasix when facing 11 other older horses off 13 workouts (11 at Payson Park and two at Keeneland). “We’re just crossing our fingers in the hope he’ll adapt over here,” O’Rourke said. “Obviously, he has some talent, and we’re hoping he’ll find a niche for himself, something that’s ideal on these American tracks and with firm ground.” Morpheus is listed at 4-1 in a race that has Charming Kitten, ninth in the Kentucky Derby last year, as a 3-1 program choice. A highly eventful Thursday card begins with the third 2-year-old race of the meet and the first restricted to fillies. Wesley Ward will send out the uncoupled pair of Beauty Sisters and Spanish Pipedream in a field of nine. BACK TO TOP STORIES illman DAN ILLMAN’S PEDIGREE HANDICAPPING drf.com/blogs/dan-illman A closer look at Puntrooskie PUNTROOSKIE (Dk. b. or br. g., In Summation–Siren Cove, by Montbrook) Foal date, state: March 15, 2011, Florida Trainer: Nicholas Gonzalez Owner: Tucci Stables Breeders: John David O’Farrell, J. Michael O’Farrell, and Our Sugar Bear Stable Last race: 1st, Woodstock Stakes, 6 furlongs, Woodbine, April 20, Beyer: 98 For the second year in a row, Nicholas Gonzalez made a prescient claim at Gulfstream for Tucci Stables. In 2013, the owner-trainer combination haltered Midnight Aria for $35,000 out of a runnerup performance in a nine-furlong turf race. Six starts later, Midnight Aria placed his name in the record books with a gate-towire triumph in the Queen’s Plate, the first jewel of the Canadian Triple Crown. Puntrooskie, a Florida-bred 3-yearold, won’t win this year’s Queen’s Plate, but he looks like a very promising sprint and middle-distance prospect. Taken for $50,000 following a second-place finish in a one-mile dirt race on Feb. 8, Puntrooskie dominated the Woodstock Stakes traveling six furlongs last Sunday at Woodbine. Making his synthetic debut, Puntrooskie brushed the side of the gate at the start and ended up trailing the six-horse field while three wide on the backstretch. Meanwhile, up front, 28-1 longshot Callmeoldfashion battled with Go Greeley through fractions of 22.19 and 44.85 seconds. Puntrooskie, ridden by Jesse Campbell, swept to the front with LIFETIME PAST PERFORMANCE REPORTS AT 6 a three-wide bid on the turn and was geared down in the final sixteenth of a mile. He scored by five lengths in 1:09.31 and received a career-best 98 Beyer Speed Figure. Puntrooskie didn’t beat up on a bunch of tomato cans, either. Go Greeley was named Canada’s champion 2-year-old of 2013 after reeling off three stakes victories; Only I Know won both prior starts by a combined 14 1/4 lengths; Tuscan Getaway is multiple stakes-placed at Woodbine; favored Jose Sea View won a pair of stakes last year and finished a solid fifth behind Cairo Prince in the Grade 2 Nashua Stakes at Aqueduct; Callmeoldfashion overcame a closer’s bias to win his lone prior outing on Polytrack. Puntrooskie is from the first crop of In Summation, a crack sprinter that won 12 of 29 races for over $1.2 million in career earnings. In Summation prevailed at distances ranging from 4 1/2 to seven furlongs on dirt, turf, Polytrack and ProRide. He took his first five starts on dirt at 2 by a combined 25 1/4 lengths, received a career-best 108 Beyer in nabbing the Grade 2 Palos Verdes Stakes over Pro-Ride, and won the Grade 1 Bing Crosby Handicap on Polytrack. In Summation set or broke track records at six furlongs over the Santa Anita Pro-Ride (1:06.67), 5 1/2 furlongs on Pro-Ride (1:01.27), six furlongs on Del Mar’s Polytrack (1:11.06) and 5 1/2 furlongs on turf at Monmouth (1:01.85). In Summation stands for a $4,000 fee at J. Michael O’Farrell’s Ocala Stud in Florida. Puntrooskie’s dam, Siren Cove, by Montbrook, was never off the board from four starts. She won her debut on dirt at five furlongs and finished third in the My Dear Girl Florida Stallion Stakes at 1 1/16 miles. This is the female family of Mindy Gayle, who succeeded in both the Grade 3 Florida Oaks at 1 1/16 miles and the Grade 2 Forward Gal Stakes at seven furlongs. Bred by John David O’Farrell, J. Michael O’Farrell, and Our Sugar Bear Stable, Puntrooskie was foaled on March 15, 2011. Consigned by Ocala Stud, he sold for $62,000 at the OBS June auction of 2-yearolds in training and horses of racing age after breezing two furlongs in 21 3/5 seconds at the under-tack show. Puntrooskie showed some promise in his four unsuccessful starts for Our Sugar Bear Stable and trainer David Braddy. He finished third in his second start, his 3-year-old debut, in a six-furlong statebred maiden special weight at Gulfstream on Jan. 4, and received a 73 Beyer. Puntrooskie raced on turf in his first try for Gonzalez, a $75,000 maiden claimer at Gulfstream going 1 1/16 miles. He finished a decent fifth in a race that produced four next-out winners. One of them was Puntrooskie, who handled five others in a statebred maiden special weight at 6 1/2 furlongs on dirt. Puntrooskie received an 82 Beyer for that 6 3/4-length win and was flattered when the runner-up, Souper Lucky, returned to graduate by seven lengths with a 79 Beyer. That maiden race set Puntrooskie up perfectly for the Woodstock, and he came through with flying colors to become his sire’s first stakes winner. Puntrooskie looks strong on both dirt and Polytrack, but may have some trouble in races beyond a mile. Keep an eye on him throughout the spring and summer in shorter-distance heats. Lifetime PPs are available in packages of 10, 20, 50, 100 and 500 reports. Go to DRF.com/horsemen BACK TO TOP STORIES headline5 Broodmare of the Week: Champagne Royale By Nicole Russo Danza’s pedigree on his dam’s side suggested that the colt was crying out for a distance of ground – and when given the opportunity, he stepped up to the plate in a big way. The Street Boss colt, who is trained by Todd Pletcher for Eclipse Thoroughbred Partners, romped by 4 3/4 lengths in the Grade 1, 1 1/8-mile Arkansas Derby April 12 at Oaklawn Park. With that effort in his first start around two turns, Danza punched his ticket to the Kentucky Derby. Danza is out of the 13-year-old French Deputy mare Champagne Royale, who herself was stakes-placed going 1 1/16 miles, and was already the dam of marathon stakes winner Majestic Harbor. Danza hinted at his ability early on, finishing third, beaten less than a length, in the Grade 2 Saratoga Special last summer. In the first start of his 3-year-old season, the colt was third in a seven-furlong allowance March 1 at Gulfstream Park. “We always had [his pedigree] in our minds,” Pletcher said. “Trying to get to that two-turn race, we felt the best way to do that was to start back in a sevenfurlong allowance, and that would set him up well for that race. I was still pleasantly surprised at how well he handled the mile and an eighth. He finished up real strongly, he had his legs up underneath him at the end, and he galloped out strongly. That’s all encouraging stuff.” Champagne Royale won four of her 11 starts racing exclusively at Hastings Park, earning a modest $63,887. She finished second in the Land Michener Matriarch Handicap at 1 1/16 miles. Following the conclusion of her racing career, Champagne Royale went through the ring at the 2006 Keeneland January horses of all ages sale, selling for $29,000 to Brandywine Farm and Liberation Farm. Brandywine later bought the mare outright at the 2012 Keeneland November breeding stock sale, to dissolve a partnership. Champagne Royale is the dam of four winners from as many starters to date. Less than a month before Danza started in the Arkansas Derby, the colt’s 6-yearold half-brother Majestic Harbor served up a hint to astute pedigree handicappers, 7 Barbara D. Livingston Arkansas Derby winner and probable Kentucky Derby starter Danza is the second graded stakes winner this year out of Champagne Royale. capturing the Grade 3 Tokyo City Cup Stakes going 1 1/2 miles at Santa Anita. The Rockport Harbor horse also finished second in the Grade 2 San Pasqual Stakes at 1 1/16 miles earlier this year. The mare has also produced Consider Yourself, a winner at about 1 3/8 miles in England; and Totally Tucker, a Larry Jones-trained filly who scored a memorable debut win sprinting on the Kentucky Oaks card at Churchill Downs in 2012 and won at one mile and 70 yards last year at Fair Grounds. Eclipse Thoroughbreds purchased Danza from Liberation and Brandywine for $105,000 at the 2012 Keeneland September yearling sale. Pletcher noted that the group’s familiarity with the colt’s sire may have also played a role in the purchase. Eclipse campaigned Street Boss’s Grade 1-winning son Capo Bastone. “They did a great job with finding him,” Pletcher said. “They’ve had success with Street Boss… so I think maybe knowing Capo Bastone was one of the reasons why [Eclipse’s Aron Wellman] found Danza.” Champagne Royale was bred to Preakness Stakes winner and Darby Dan stallion Shackleford for 2014. Bred in California by Budget Stable, Champagne Royale is out of the winning Tank’s Prospect mare All Tanked Up, making her a half-sister to stakes winner He’s Hammered.
