PLETCHER EXACTA IN DERBY TRIAL If the GIII Derby Trial S. is any indication for things tocome next weekend in Louisville, look out. Forty Tales(Tale of the Cat), a disappointing fifth as the even-money chalk in the GIII Swale S. at Gulfstream Mar. 2,held off a fierce late rally from stablemate CapoBastone (Street Boss), keying a Todd Pletcher exacta."We felt like there was a bit of speed in the race andboth of these horses' styles are to settle and make onerun,@ Pletcher said. AIt seemed like the track was playingfavorably to those kinds of horses on the night, so wejust let them do their thing and it worked out well.@ Anychance Forty Tales wheels back for the Derby afterpicking up 20 crucial points for the win? "I doubt it, butwe'll see how he comes out of it,@ Pletcher responded.AI'm sure that the owner will want to talk about it, but Iwould say he's probably a one-turn horse." Cont. p4

Todd Squad/Derby Notes cont.
Revolutionary (War Pass) and Charming Kitten(Kitten=s Joy) breezed four furlongs in company (:48.20
& :48.40), with the formerskimming the rail and finishing alength to the good. Calvin Borel,slated to enter the Hall of Famethis summer, met the press aftergetting acquainted with the GIILouisiana Derby hero. AIt is agreat honor,@ Borel said ofFriday=s announcement. AIt hasn=tall sunk in, but I=m very excitedabout it.@ Regarding Saturday=sbreeze, Borel continued, AI wasvery pleased with it. He dideverything right. He=s my kind ofhorse; he does everything theway you=re supposed to. He
does what I ask, not what he wants. He=s smart. Andyou need a horse like that in the Derby. You just knowyou=re going to get in trouble and you need a smarthorse to get you out.@
� �
Overanalyze (Dixie Union), with Gary Stevens aboard, and Palace Malice (Curlin), with Mike Smith in theirons, also worked in company. Palace Malice, a closesecond in the GI Blue Grass S. Apr. 13, had the edgeby about a length in the early stages, but the pairwound up on even terms at the finish. Clockers caughtthe GI Arkansas Derby hero in fractions of :12, :23.40,:35.40, and a final time of :47, the fastest of 70breezes at the distance. Overanalyze galloped out fivefurlongs in :59.60 and six furlongs in 1:13.40. PalaceMalice carved out splits of :12, :23.60, and :35.40,with a final time of :47.20 (2/70). He galloped out fivefurlongs in :59.80. The Dogwood colorbearer woreblinkers for the first time in the work, and will alsosport the shades for the first time in the Derby. AI alsoliked Revolutionary=s drill,@ Pletcher added. AHe wentvery well and galloped out strong. Overanalyze=s workthis morning was very good. It was his best work ever.@

Derby Trial cont.
Forty Tales was a sharp winner of his first two starts,including a six-furlong Parx allowance Jan. 5. He camefrom out of the clouds to finish second, beaten a half-length, in the GII Hutcheson S. Feb. 2, but failed toduplicate that performance in the Swale. Subsequentlyfreshened, he lined up in the Derby Trial as a slight 3-1favorite. Placed in sixth as Zee Bros (Brother Derek)zipped through fractions of :22.48 and :45.07, JoelRosario began to go to work on the far turn, took overfrom the pacesetter in mid-stretch, and found the wirein time as Capo Bastone came flying from last of nine.AIt was a perfect trip,@ Rosario said. AHe broke well. Ifigured there was going to be some speed in the raceand we=d be five, six, seven lengths off the speed.That=s exactly where we were. When we turned forhome, I asked him to go and he went and put me in agood spot.@ As for the runner-up, Pletcher added, AWewere thinking that if he ran really well we couldconsider the Preakness or something like that. We'll seehow he comes out of it.@ Click here for a TDN Feature on FortyTales’ owners. " " "

McPeek Duo Work in Company... The Ken McPeek-trained duo of Frac Daddy (Scat
Daddy) and GI Blue Grass S.hero Java=s War (War Pass)worked five furlongs incompany in 1:02 followingthe renovation break. FracDaddy, second in the GIArkansas Derby, finished ahalf-length in front, andgalloped out six furlongs in1:15.80. Java=s War was outin 1:16.60. AIt was a nicesolid breeze--it was amaintenance work,@ McPeeksaid. AThey=ve workedtogether quite a few times.Frac=s got more speed thanthe other horse. Java=s Warkeeps coming.@ Frac Daddy, a
9 3/4-length maiden winner beneath the Twin Spireslast November, was a close second in the GII KentuckyJockey Club S. Nov. 24. AHe likes this racetrack,@ McPeek continued.AThe timing is right. We=re encouraged.@
Normandy Invasion Works Quick... Normandy Invasion (Tapit) covered five furlongs in:59.00, the second quickest work at that distance outof 52 horses. The GI Wood Memorial S. second-placefinisher went splits of :11.80, :23.20, :34.80 and:46.60. He galloped out six furlongs in 1:11.80.Exercise rider Javir Herrera was aboard. AIt was more ofa maintenance move,@ explained trainer Chad Brown.AHe worked quick, but I thought he did it well withinhimself. He didn=t work with any company and gallopedout well. He came back good. All the serious work isdone.@
Solid Work for Black Onyx... GIII Horseshoe Casino Cincinnati Spiral S. winnerBlack Onyx (Rock Hard Ten) worked a half mile in:48.60 with jockey Joe Bravo in the irons. The SterlingRacing colorbearer set splits of :12.20, :24.20 and:36.20, and galloped out five panels in 1:02.40. AIt wasa good workout,@ conditioner Kelly Breen said. AWeweren=t looking to go too fast. We know what thehorse is able to do and we want to just keep him doingwhat he did before his previous wins. It was a niceworkout.@

Mylute Back on Usual Work Pattern... GII Louisiana Derby runner-up Mylute (Midnight Lute)went four panels in :50.60 Saturday morning underjockey Rosie Napravnik. The time was the 59th fastestwork at that distance of 70 workouts. ALook, I=ve saidfor three weeks, that Mylute=s big work is going to besimilar to what he did before the Louisiana Derby incompany, and he did what we wanted him to do,==trainer Tom Amoss said. ALast week=s work, which wasa half-mile [in 47.80] by himself, caught me off guard.It was a better work than I anticipated, not the kind ofwork he typically does. But he had a target. There werea couple horses working in front of him, and it kept hisattention. Today was certainly a mediocre work bymost people=s standards, but that is my horse, how heworks. His work pattern before the Louisiana Derby isalmost identical to what he did today. I=m verycomfortable with what he did. I have a horse that=scoming into the Derby the right way.==
Oaks Works, Gallops and Arrivals... Trainer Todd Pletcher sent out his four GI KentuckyOaks contenders to breeze at Churchill Downs Saturdaymorning. GII Gulfstream Oaks winner Dreaming of Julia(A.P. Indy) worked a half mile in :51.00 with an early
split of :25.80 andan out time of1:03.60. GIII BourbonetteOaks heroine Silsita(Macho Uno) workedunder Gary Stevensin company with GII Fair GroundsOaks winnerUnlimited Budget(Street Sense). Thelatter, who breezedon the outside, went
five panels in :59.60 and the former covered thedistance in 1:00. AShe=s a good work horse; that=s her,@exercise rider Patti Krotenko said of Unlimited Budget.ABut she felt very strong this morning. She=s definitelyon the muscle and ready to roll.@ Stevens was alsohappy with his mount=s work, commenting AShe wasvery keen going to the pole and I didn=t want herkicking all the way in. But she got over the track welland it was a good effort for her.@ Princess of Sylmar(Majestic Warrior), the GII Gazelle S. runner-up, was thelast of Pletcher=s Oaks quartet to work. She put in fourfurlongs in :49.20 and galloped out in 1:01.60 incompany with stablemate Fusaichiswonderful (FusaichiPegasus). AI thought they all did well,@ Pletcher said ofthe works. AUnlimited Budget was our strongest andfastest today. She=s doing well. Dreaming of Julia--wetried to do with her what we did coming up to theGulfstream Oaks [a :50.80 breeze]. We didn=t want hergoing too fast. We wanted to save something with her.All in all, it was good. I was happy with the wholebunch.@
The Bill Mott-trained Flashy Gray (Flashy Bull) workedin company and was clocked going five panels in1:01.00. AI thought it was very good,== Mott said. ATheywent off nicely. They were off easy in 13 and picked itup. It=s all we needed. I think the most important partwas that the rider felt like [Flashy Gray] was therewhen she needed her.== In other Oaks news, Close Hatches (First Defence)galloped over the track and both Pure Fun (Pure Prize)and Midnight Lucky (Midnight Lute) galloped 1 1/2miles. Beholder (Henny Hughes) arrived at ChurchillSaturday afternoon from California.

The Thoroughbred racing industry has a long andstoried history of producing passionate participants. It's
not unusual to seepeople who have hadremarkableachievements inbusiness, or who runmultinationalcorporations or evencountries demonstratean exuberance notnormally seen in theiroutside-the-racetrackpersona. We are mostoften party to thesedisplays when they'rerooting home one oftheir runners at theBreeders' Cup, theDubai World Cup or
under the Twin Spires. Friday at Keeneland, however, Isaw something which indicated the greatest level ofpassion I may have ever seen in the game. I was inattendance at Keeneland for Ken and Sarah Ramsey'seighth lifetime graded stakes win, which earned themthe track's coveted gold engraved Tiffany plate. Therace was also their 24th win of the meet. I've come toknow Ken over the years and wanted to offer him mypersonal congratulations on such a momentousachievement. I walked toward the Keeneland Director'sRoom after the winner's circle ceremony for theElkhorn. But as I headed into the clubhouse tunnel, Iwas almost run over by Ken, his son Jeff, their farmmanager Mark Partridge, family and friends, who, enmasse, had rushed out of a toast celebrating one of thegreat achievements of racing in Kentucky and wererunning at a pace which suggested a fire. They haddone so because the field for the last race of the springmeet, a $20,000 maiden claimer, had just crossed thefinish line and their 6-1 shot, also trained by MikeMaker, had won the race. I'm not sure any of the 17prior winners of the Tiffany gold plate would have runso hard, so fast and so joyfully to the winner's circle toget their picture taken with a maiden claimer, but that'swhat makes Ken Ramsey so special. He loves the sport,loves winning races, loves standing his own racehorsesat stud and giving them an opportunity to succeed,and, as everybody knows, loves to bet. But I daresaythe thing he loves most is getting his picture taken inthe winner's circle. And over the past 16 racing days atKeeneland, he's done that more than anyone. Ever.Congratulations, Ken. --Barry Weisbord

Despite a 63-day layoff on account of a virus, theconnections of All Too Hard expressed confidence intheir colt prior to this return, and the bay justifiedfavoritism with a stirring victory here that stamped histicket to the G1 Queen Anne S. at Royal Ascot inEngland June 18. AWe always thought he was the realdeal and he certainly proved it today,@ said VineryStud=s Peter Orton. AHe is just the most magnificentlooking animal and a really classy racehorse. AWe didn=tneed to be here today. He=s got nothing to prove, butyou don=t duck and dive from these things. It was justgreat to see him get his return and yes, we willdefinitely be on our way to England.@ The A$1.025-million sales-topper at the Inglis Easter yearling sale in2011, All Too Hard has long since emerged from theshadow of his immortal elder sister Black Caviar toestablish himself as one of the best horses in training inAustralia. He became the first horse to defeat champion2-year-old Pierro (Aus) (Lonhro {Aus}) when collectinghis first Group 1 victory in last season=s G1 CaulfieldGuineas, and followed up with a gallant second-placeeffort against elders in the G1 Cox Plate in October.

Put on the shelf following that effort, All Too Hardhas returned this year to annex three straight Group 1events, including the G1 C.F. Orr and G1 Futurity S.,both at Caulfield in February. He made his finalpreparation for this return by winning a trial over thisstrip last Friday. Making his first start in Sydney inseven months here, All Too Hard took up a prominentposition outside second favorite More Joyous (NZ)(More Than Ready) through the early stages. Swingingfour-wide at the top of the lane, All Too Hard kickedinto gear passing the 200-meter mark, sweeping pasthis rivals to post an impressive victory. More Joyousfaded to a lackluster seventh.

QUEEN ELIZABETH S. cont.
Reliable Man was sent off a long 11-1 second choicebehind the heavily-favored 3-year-old It=s a Dundeel inhis second Australian start here. While the grey left nodoubt as to his dominance in the end, his victory wasmarred when he sustained an injury shortly after pullingup, which trainer Chris Waller later declared to be likelycareer-ending. With yesterday=s victory, Reliable Manbecame a Group 1 winner on both hemispheres. Hewent unbeaten through his first three starts in Francefor trainer Alain de Royer Dupre, including the G1 Prixdu Jockey Club. He collected the G2 Prix Niel twostarts later and, although he went winless in his nextsix starts in Europe, he was far from disgraced,finishing three lengths behind So You Think (NZ) (HighChaparral {Ire}) in fourth in last year=s Royal Ascot=s G1Prince of Wales=s S., and 1 3/4 lengths off Danedream(Ger) (Lomitas {GB}) in the G1 King George S. a monthlater. He wrapped up his campaign with an eighth placefinish in the GI Canadian International. Joining the ChrisWaller stable thereafter, Reliable Man resurfaced with atrial victory at Warwick Farm over Group 1 winnerManawanui (Aus) (Oratorio {Ire}) Mar. 26, and was afirst-up sixth behind Pierro (Aus) (Lonhro {Aus}) going1500 meters in the G1 George Ryder S. at Rosehill Apr.6. Racing prominently through this stretch out to2000m, Reliable Man dropped back to travel midpackoff the rail for the run down the backstretch.

CHAMPAGNE S. cont. Guelph appeared hopelessly beaten at the top of thestretch, but nonetheless came thundering down thestraight to score her second straight Group 1 victory,and sweep the last two legs of the Australian 2-year-old Triple Crown, following her win in the G1 SiresProduce S. two weeks ago. Taking into account thevictory of Overreach (Aus) (Exceed and Excel {Aus}) inthe G1 Golden Slipper Apr. 6, fillies by that sirecompleted a sweep of the Triple Crown. A homebred for Sheikh Mohammed, Guelph kickedoff her career with a second place finish in the ListedGimcrack S. at Randwick last October before taking hernext two races, including the G3 Blue Diamond Preludeat Caulfield. She failed to fire next out in the G1 BlueDiamond S., finishing ninth, but rebounded to finishfourth in the Golden Slipper at odds of 16-1. Sent off at9-1 for the Sires= Produce a week later, Guelph traveledin the rear before making a big move inside the final200 meters, and she made a similar run yesterday.Traveling near the back of the pack through the earlystages, she began to weave her way between rivals atthe top of the stretch and, after appearing to lingerslightly approaching the 100-meter mark, burst throughfor a thrilling victory. AShe was a mile too far back, Ithought,@ trainer Peter Snowden told Racenet.com.au.AWe had a plan to be in the first half dozen from thebetter draw. I thought there was too much to do butshe was good enough to do it. She=s been to Melbournethen back to Sydney for the Slipper and then the Sires=and now the Champagne. It shows her ability andtoughness. She=s right up there with the best we=veseen this season.@ Guelph=s dam, Camarilla--who alsowon the Sires= Produce--died last year, but she has ayearling colt by Shamardal, and a weanling colt byStreet Cry (Ire).

Yesterday=s G1 Sydney Cup looked to be a battle ofthe imports, headed by favored Kelinni (Ire) (Refuse toBend {Ire}), but it was the seasoned Mourayan who ledhome a trio of longshots to post his first Group 1victory. A Listed-winning juvenile at Leopardstown inIreland, the former Aga Khan homebred was sold to hiscurrent connections at the conclusion of a sophomorecampaign that included a placing the G1 Irish Derby.While it took Mourayan more than two years to recordhis first victory down under, he was far from disgraced,placing in Group 1 company three times during thatperiod, and he got off the mark at long last in the G3 Craven Plate over this strip last October. Seventh inthe G1 Melbourne Cup thereafter, he wrapped up thatcampaign with a fourth place finish in the G2 ZippingClassic at Sandown. He resumed this year with a pairof eighth-place finishes, behind All Too Hard (Aus)(Casino Prince {Aus}) in the GII Futurity S. Feb. 23, andin the G1 Australian Cup Mar. 9. He was most recentlyfourth upon his return to Randwick in the G2 Chairman=s Quality S. Apr. 13. Saving ground onthe fence through the early stages while shoulderingco-top weight of 128 pounds here, Mourayan movedoff the rail as the field turned into the backstretch.About five-wide at the top of the lane, he stormeddown the middle of the track under a determined driveto post a landmark victory. AIt just panned out well,@winning rider Hugh Bowman told Racenet.com.au. AIhad to give him a bit of a squeeze out of the barriersand I landed in a nice position but the key to him todaywas he had the blinkers off. That was the difference.He just travelled much smoother than he did a fortnightago in the Chairman's [Quality] and in the MelbourneCup.@
