Flameaway

Luminous Beauty (f, 2, Flameaway--Sly Beauty, by Into Mischief) went to the front and stayed there, taking her second career start with ease while going 5 1/2 furlongs in Saratoga on Thursday afternoon. She was let go at 21-1 for her career bow going five panels at Churchill Downs on May 15 and she got a little leg-weary late, having to settle for second beaten 1 3/4 lengths by Pierrette (Girvin). Sent off at 4-1 while adding a sixteenth, the $40,000 Fasig-Tipton July yearling purchase broke like a shot and...

Dramatically off form for the bulk of the 2025-2026 Dubai Racing Carnival, Sultan Ali's Dark Saffron (Flameaway) was put right into play from a wide draw in defence of his title in Saturday's $2-million G1 Dubai Golden Shaheen and outsprinted reigning GI Breeders' Cup Sprint champion Bentornato (Valiant Minister) to give jockey Connor Beasley and trainer Ahmad Bin Harmash a rolling Group 1 double. The pair teamed to win the Al Quoz Sprint with Native Approach about 35 minutes earlier. Defeated by a combined 50 lengths after taking his seasonal...

Having dealt with the rookies as a case apart, and then sought a couple of bargains at the base of the pyramid, today we move into a category that remains within the reach of many hands-on breeders--from $10,000 to $19,999--while also containing sires that can raise the bar a good deal higher. On the one hand, it includes a number of young horses still to be given adequate (if any) opportunity to show what they can do, yet already finding their books and fees eroded by still newer names. But...

Named a 'TDN Rising Star' when decimating a field of main-track maidens at Gulfstream by 16 1/4 lengths last October, Shisospicy (Mitole) faded to third after setting hot fractions in the Fern Creek Stakes at Churchill in November. She just failed to last in the Jan. 4 Mockingbird Stakes at Oaklawn, but most recently wired a Gulfstream allowance in her first go on the grass Feb. 5. Carrying an imposing worktab for this return to stakes competition, the Morplay colorbearer was kicked straight into a clear advantage by Irad Ortiz,...

Darby Dan Farm has unveiled a Breeder Reassurance Plan which will provide breeders a 60-day window of financial security to provide insurance should a foal face an unforeseen challenge during its first two months. Instead of the standard 48-hour stand-and-nurse payment deadline after the birth of a live foal, Darby Dan will extend the payment window by 60 days, specifically protecting breeders in the unfortunate event of foal mortality within that period. The time frame aligns with the foal's most delicate stage of development. "We recognize the inherent risks and...
