Dogs o’ War... Though receiving a bit of a break after Dubai Destina-tion scratched, Kalaman will still have to face the olddogs of war Nayef (Gulch) and Falbrav (Ire) (Fairy King)in this test, and that duo have shown enough in theirengagements this term to suggest he will have to do itthe hard way. Nayef, who beat Golan (Ire) in this con-test 12 months ago, bounced back from a third-placingin the G1 Dubai World Cup at Nad al Sheba Mar. 29 totake the G1 Prince of Wales’s S. at Royal Ascot June18. Despite finishing only fifth on that occasion, lastyear’s G1 Japan Cup winner Falbrav comprehensivelyreversed form with his arch-rival when beating him by3/4 of a length in the G1 Eclipse S. at Sandown July 5.He again had Nayef behind when the pair finished fifthand seventh, respectively, in the G1 King George VIand Queen Elizabeth Diamond S. at Ascot July 26.Aidan O’Brien, who saddled the “Iron Horse” to denyKalanisi in the epic of 2000, relies on the progressiveMingun (A.P. Indy), who stepped up off a facile score inthe Listed Celebration S. at The Curragh June 29 tobeat Carnival Dancer (GB) by a head in the G3 Meld S.at Leopardstown last time July 26. Magistretti (Diesis{GB}) took the G2 Dante S. at this track May 14 beforefinishing ninth in the G1 Epsom Derby June 7 butbounced back to finish 1½ lengths behind the smartVespone (Ire) when runner-up in the G1 Grand Prix deParis at Longchamp last time June 22.

NO BREEDERS’ CUP FOR SANTA CATARINABob and Beverly Lewis’ Santa Catarina (Unbridled),winner of the GII Hollywood Breeders’ Cup Oaks in mid-June, will not participate in this year’s Breeders’ Cup atSanta Anita and will instead take aim at the La Canadaseries. “I’ll freshen her up,” trainer Bob Baffert toldDaily Racing Form. “She’s had little physical problems.She’d have to run against Azeri, and I want her to growup. She needs the time.” Santa Catarina was mostrecently fourth in the American Oaks over Hollywood’slawn July 5. The La Canada series begins in late De-cember with the seven-furlong GI La Brea S. at SantaAnita.

SULAMANI BIDES TIME AT BELMONTGodolphin’s Sulamani (Ire) (Hernando {Fr}), who wasawarded victory in Saturday’s GI Arlington Million whenStorming Home was disqualified from first, will take uptemporary residence at Belmont Park in Elmont, NewYork while his connections chart a course for the starfour-year-old. “He will stay in the USA for the momentat our stable up at Belmont, but the [G1] Arc [de l’Arcde Triomphe] is still very much part of the plan,”Godolphin racing manager Simon Crisford told RacingPost. “We have to consider the [Sept. 6, GI] Man o’War S. for him and there is also the [Oct. 25, GI] Breed-ers’ Cup [Turf], but we have to look at all the options.”

SONS OF SEEKING THE GOLD

Although the circumstances weren't ideal, theGodolphin team were understandably delighted thatSulamani's promotion to first in the Arlington Millionfinally helped them reach the magnificent landmark of100 Group 1 victories. Needless to say, there havebeen numerous stars among the horses which contrib-uted to this extraordinary achievement (gained in thespace of less than ten years), but none shone sobrightly as Dubai Millennium, the stunning son of Seek-ing the Gold who contributed four of the previous 99wins (by a total of over 22 lengths). Of course, Dubai Millennium succumbed to grasssickness at the end of April, 2001, after he had covered82 mares during his first season at Dalham Hall Stud.Because quite a few of those mares hadn't had time toconceive, Dubai Millennium's legacy amounts to only56 foals. With many of these 56 belonging to the Maktoumfamily or other owner-breeders, few of Dubai Millen-nium's progeny were ever likely to make it to the salesring. That number was further reduced by Sheikh Mo-hammed's decision to buy as many of his old favorite'sprogeny as possible. Consequently, there are only ahandful of Dubai Millennium yearlings in this year'smajor European sales. Among them are Kilcarn Stud'scolt out of Spirit of Tara, a sister to the triple classicwinner Salsabil; a half-brother to the GI San JuanCapistrano H. winner Passinetti; and a colt out of MissSatamixa, a mare who – like Dubai Millennium – wonthe G1 Prix Jacques le Marois. Remarkably, Miss Satamixa – along with the Ameri-can mares November Snow, Storm Song and Tribula-tion - is one of 17 Grade/Group I-winning racemaresamong the dams of Dubai Millennium's 56 foals. ClearlyDubai Millennium received every help in the quest topass on his exceptional talents, which Timeform ac-knowledged with a rating of 140.

The weight of expectations being carried by DubaiMillennium's heirs has become heavier over the last fewweeks, thanks to the Grade I successes achieved bytwo of Seeking the Gold's other stallion sons, neither ofwhich enjoyed anything like the same support as DubaiMillennium. Lady Tak, who was winning for the sixth time in ninestarts when she took the Test S. at the end of July,comes from the third American crop by Mutakddim,who started his career at Hill ‘n' Dale Farms at a fee ofonly $5,000. Now we have Island Fashion, an impres-sive winner of the GI Alabama S., who comes from thethird crop by Petionville. This accomplished son of Seeking the Gold stood his first season at CrestwoodFarm at a fee of $10,000, but his fee was quicklyhalved. Add in the fact that Bird Town, winner of the GIKentucky Oaks and GI Acorn Stakes, is a member ofthe first crop by Cape Town and you'll see that three ofthis year's best sophomore fillies are all by sons ofSeeking the Gold. Perhaps it isn't just coincidence thatthese high-class performers are all fillies, as Seeking theGold has long had a reputation for being a "filly sire,"notwithstanding the Grade 1 successes of his sonsDubai Millennium, Cape Town, Lujain and Secret Sav-ings. The Claiborne stallion has twice as many Grade1-winning daughters to his credit, with Cash Run, Seek-ing the Pearl, Flanders and Heavenly Prize among them. The very well-connected Mutakddim, who is inbred 3 x 4 to the three-time champion broodmare sireBuckpasser, also has a predominance of fillies amonghis growing list of stakes winners, but this list alsoincludes three Group 1-winning sons in Argentina (LacAzur, El Charlatan and Luna Real). With over 140 maresbred in Kentucky in 2002, Mutakddim is likely to go onto even better things. Significantly, Petionville is also inbred 3 x 4 toBuckpasser. Perhaps this explains why his good win-ners this year include Harbor Blues (Arizona Oaks), KeiaiSakura (Audubon Oaks) and Petionville Indeed (WalmacLone Star Oaks) in addition to another Oaks winner (ofthe Delaware variety) in Island Fashion.

Although Petionville never scaled the heightsachieved by Seeking the Gold, he had a pretty solidrecord. By the time he won the GIII La Jolla H. on DelMar's turf course in August 1995, his record stood atsix wins from nine starts, with five of those victoriescoming at stakes level. He had earlier won the GIIILouisiana Derby and the GII Ohio Derby, so he was agraded winner on both dirt and turf. With three medium-sized crops aged three or over,Petionville has also sired two Graded-winning males, inPublication (a GII Arlington-Washington Futurity winnerwith three lines of Buckpasser) and True Passion, aswell as the Grade II turf-winning filly Caught in theRain. Four graded winners from his first three crops isagain surely a pointer to greater things to come, espe-cially as True Passion has a non-winning dam, Caughtin the Rain has an unraced dam and Island Fashion hasan unraced broodmare sire in A Native Danzig. IslandFashion, though, is out of a good-class racemare inDanzigs Fashion, who earned nearly $200,000. So what will Dubai Millennium, a much better race-horse than either Mutakddim or Petionville, achievewith his highly accomplished mates, I wonder?
