A filly by leading sire Tapit sold for $1 million to Robert Krembil’s Ontario-based Chiefswood Stable as the Keeneland September yearling sale continued on Tuesday.

Trend, with Dennis Carr aboard, earns his first career stakes victory in the Joseph Grace Handicap. The well-traveled Trend made his Northern California debut in the $54,210 Joseph T. Grace Handicap and scored his first career stakes victory Sunday at the Sonoma County Fair.

7th-DMR, $76,250, Msw, 2yo, f, 6f (AWT), 1:10 2/5, ft.
STARLET O’HARA (f, 2, Discreetly Mine–My Chanel, by Gilded Time) was off very slowly in her Los Alamitos debut July 4, but flew home to complete the exacta.

Moon Song broke his maiden Saturday, May 2 in Pimlico’s 6th race. Moon Song prompted the pace, was three deep leaving the turn, wrested command in upper stretch, was under brisk urging and drew clear. Ridden by Trevor McCarthy.

Kitty Wine was away in good order and opened clear to dictate terms, repelled the challenge of Keening and Artie R R midway through the turn, widened entering the stretch and drew away to score as the rider pleased.

Number Five pulled early, stalked outside a rival, bid three deep into the stretch, gained the lead in upper stretch, drifted in and held gamely under left handed urging.

When the temperatures dip to below freezing many folks may start to worry about their horses, whether they are warm and if it’s safe to keep them outside.

Menifee retained his Leading Sire crown by a huge margin at the end of a year where his progeny have dominated once again.

Filly Speedy First, who landed a Korean Derby and Oaks double was Menifee’s chief money earner in a year where the Leading sire saw 14.2% of all his starters win.

Kudos to Arthur Hancock for his brave article of condemnation of race-day drugs for Thoroughbreds.

Stone Farm’s Extravaganza, away alertly but unhurried early, launched a belated bid outside rivals in the final furlong and was up to win Sunday’s $53,000 allowance spring over a Stall-Wilson Turf Course rated soft by 1 1/4-lengths.
