Family: married Sheikha Hind bint Juma al Maktoum 1979 ... Princess Haya of Jordan in April 2004 ... Four of his sons, Sheikhs Rashid, Hamdan (owner of Eastern Anthem before he went to Godolphin), Mansoor (owner of Gladiatorus before he went to Godolphin), Ahmed, and Majid have been racing their own horses in Dubai each winter, while Sheikh Rashid races under the name of Zabeel Stable. Sheikh Rashid owned Grade 1 winner Henny Hughes. ... Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid al Maktoum is now the Crown Prince of Dubai, while his namesake uncle Sheikh Hamdan bin Rashid al Maktoum remains the Finance Minister of Dubai and head of Shadwell Stable. ... Princess Haya also has her own stable, led in 2008 by Epsom Derby winner New Approach and Queen Elizabeth II Stakes (G1) winner Raven’s Pass, who ended 2008 with a victory in the Breeders’ Cup Classic, the first under the Darley banner. Her highness had her first child, Al Jalila, in Dec. 2007. Sheik Mohammed has 19 children. ... Education: Attended Bell School of Languages (Cambridge, UK), Mons Officer Cadet School (Aldershot, UK). ... Web site: www.darley.co.uk Quick facts about Darley Stud: • Darley is the breeding arm of Sheikh Mohammed’s global operation, with stallions standing at Dalham Hall Stud in England (the original property which remains the flagship farm), Kildangan Stud in Ireland, Darley America in Lexington, and properties in Australia, and Japan. • In recent years, the cream of the Maktoum family racehorses have

been concentrated under the Godolphin banner, which emerged in 1994 and soon established the policy of wintering the horses in Dubai, returning to England or the United States in April. • Multiple Grade 1 winner It’s Tricky, bred by Stonerside and trained by Kiaran McLaughlin, raced for Darley through the summer of 2011, but then was transferred to Godolphin. She finished second in the 2011 Ladies’ Classic. • Bred 2012 Coaching Club American Oaks (G1) and Alabama Stakes (G1) winner Questing (GB), who raced for Princess Haya during a two-year-old campaign that saw her place in two Group 3 events in England and finish fifth in the Juvenile Fillies ... The Hard Spun filly raced for Darley at age three, including a fast allowance win by 3-3/4 lengths at Belmont Park on June 24, earning her promotion to Godolphin. • Bred 2012 Travers Stakes (G1) dead-heat winner Alpha. The Bernardini colt debuted with a six-length win at Saratoga on Sept. 3, 2011, in Darley colors, then was transferred to Godolphin. Alpha finished 11th in the 2011 Juvenile. • Darley as breeder was represented by six entries in the 2011 Breeders’ Cup, including Alpha and Questing (GB). Two others raced in Europe for Sheikh Mohammed’s brother Sheikh Ahmed bin Rashid al Maktoum: Group 1 winner Nahrain (GB), and Farraj (GB). Two others had been sold and raced in America: My Gi Gi owned by Richard Lynn and Grace Hall owned by Michael Dubb, et al.

• Other top horses representing Darley as breeder in 2011 included Group 1 winner Lyric of Light (GB) and Rakasa (GB), both trained by Mahmood al Zarooni and owned by Godolphin, and Darley homebred Higher Court, trained by Tom Albertrani in America. • Among the top runners bred by Darley in 2010 included Arlington Million (G1) winner Debussy (Ire) raced by Princess Haya (and under the Godolphin banner in 2011), Sword Dancer Invitational (G1) hero Telling, and multiple G3 winner Etched, raced by Godolphin. Overseas, the breeding operation has been represented by Group 1 winners Cutless Bay, Dream Ahead (who continued to shine in 2011), and Danon Chantilly as well as Group 3 winners Anna Salai and Simon de Montfort. • Acquired Bob and Janice McNair’s Stonerside Stable in Aug. 2008, including subsequent Juvenile winner Midshipman. • The 2008 Breeders’ Cup was huge for Darley. Raven’s Pass, racing for Darley and Princess Haya, won the Breeders’ Cup Classic. Donativum and Coronet of a Baron finished one-two in the Juvenile Turf, and Midshipman won the Juvenile. • Sheikh Mohammed augments his breeding operation with purchases at auction. The 2008 purchase of Fasig-Tipton by a Dubai-based group of the Sheikh’s business associates received his great support as a supplier of international racehorses, as did Darley stallions. • Darley expanded in Australia in March 2008 with the purchase of Woodlands Stud and the Crown Lodge racing operation from Robert

Ingham. • Purchased the former Whitney Family’s Greentree estate in Saratoga Springs, New York, from Robert McNair in Jan. 2007 to train at the 120-acre (Polytrack) training oval adjacent to Saratoga Race Course. • While Sheik Mohammed has pushed to win an American classic with his Godolphin string, it was Bernardini who provided him with his first victory in a U.S. Triple Crown race, racing in his maroon and white silks. The colt went on to win the Travers (G1) and was runner-up to Invasor (Arg) in the 2006 Breeders’ Cup Classic. Graded winners Dubai Escapade and Songster helped Darley lead North America in earnings that year and shared an Eclipse Award with Lael Stables, as the 2006 outstanding owner. • Balletto, a Darley homebred, was the first UAE-bred to compete in the Breeders’ Cup; she finished third in the 2004 Juvenile Fillies and third (via disqualification) in the 2006 Distaff (now Ladies’ Classic). … Among horses Sheikh Mohammed has raced in his own name are Breeders’ Cup Turf winners Pebbles and In the Wings, and Breeders’ Cup Mile winner Barathea. • Darley stands more than 50 stallions in five countries including the United States, where they are based at the former Jonabell Farm, in Lexington. Sheik Mohammed purchased it in 2001, where it has been called Darley since 2007. Among the stallions are homebred 2006 Preakness winner Bernardini, the 1-2 finishers in the 2007 Kentucky Derby, Street Sense and Hard Spun, and Medaglia d’Oro. A July 2009 purchase, Medaglia d’Oro allowed for 20 percent ownership to remain

with Barry Weisbord and Richard Santulli. • Has aggressively pursued top quality mares at auction in recent years, particularly for Darley America stallions, including champion Ashado (record $9 million), Breeders’ Cup Distaff (now Ladies’ Classic) winner Round Pond ($5.75 million), multiple G1 winner Octave ($4 million), and Playful Act, for a world record $10.5 million while in foal to Darley stallion Street Cry (Ire), with a Street Cry weanling at her side. • Sheikh Mohammed paid $10.2 million, the second-highest price in Thoroughbred auction history at the time, for a Northern Dancer colt at Keeneland in July 1983. Named Snaafi Dancer, he never raced and proved infertile at stud. That remains the highest price the Sheikh has paid at auction for a yearling, but he approached it when spending $9.7 million for Jalil, a Storm Cat colt at Keeneland in Sept. 2006. He also was the underbidder for The Green Monkey, the world-record setting $16 million 2-year-old sold to rivals Coolmore in 2006.

The best will move to Sheikh Mohammed’s Godolphin racing operation.

• The Sheikh saw his first horse race on May 5, 1967; watched Royal Palace win the 2,000 Guineas. ... Purchased his first racehorse (Hatta, winner of four stakes including Molecomb Stakes) in 1976.

Dettori will ride as a freelancer in 2013, and Godolphin will retain Mickael Barzalona and Silvestre de Sousa.

A few hours later he almost added the world’s richest race when he saddled Allybar to finish third, beaten in a very tight three-way photo, in the Dubai World Cup.

There was also a dead-heat in 1874 that was resolved by a run-off. “It’s a dead-heat, but it goes in the ‘W’ column,” said McLaughlin, who shared the win with fellow Kentucky native Ken McPeek, trainer of Golden Ticket. “It doesn’t happen very

often in a Grade 1, $1 million race, but we’re all happy it happened today for two guys from Lexington. We’re happy to win a Grade 1 with this horse.”

Questing overpowered her rivals in the Alabama by 9 lengths following a 4-1/4-length win in the Coaching Club American Oaks on opening weekend at the Spa. “She’s a special filly,” He said about Questing. “I’m glad we have her on dirt here in North America and that we tried her on it. She could have won today going a mile and a half. She’s definitely the best 3-year-old filly in America on the dirt.” Bred in Great Britain, Questing was fifth in the 2011 Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies while still trained by John Gosden. • Other 2012 stakes winners include Emcee in the G1 Forego at Saratoga; It’s Tricky in the G1 Ogden Phipps and G2 Distaff and G2 Top Flight. • On Belmont Stakes Day in 2011, won graded stakes with both It’s Tricky and Trappe Shot. It’s Tricky took the Acorn (G1) and Trappe Shot romped by 8-½ lengths in the True North (G2). “Wow,” he said after the True North. “To win by that much and that fast ... wow. You don’t get many wows in a year, and now I get two in a day.”

Began to make his

presence felt in the Triple Crown series in 2005 when G3 Holy Bull Stakes winner Closing Argument finished second in the Kentucky Derby at odds of 71-1 ... Sent out Uptowncharlybrown to finish fifth in the 2010 Belmont Stakes, but the 3-year-old was disqualified for losing an eight-pound weight pad during the race.

• Left the Lukas operation in Feb. 1992 to become the agent for jockey Chris Antley.

• Won his first U.S. Grade 1 stakes in 2003 when Lunar Sovereign took the Man o’ War at Belmont Park.

• McLaughlin worked for trainers James Burchell, John Hennig, Mark Casse, Dave Kassen and Tim Muckler before joining the D.

He split his year between Dubai and New York through 2003 when he returned to the United States full-time … While training in Dubai, McLaughlin trained for Sheikh Mohammed and his brother, Sheikh Hamdan. He led the trainer standings in wins four times at Nad Al Sheba Race Course in Dubai – 1994-95, 1995-96, 2001-02 and 2002-03.

• His large stable doesn’t leave McLaughlin with much time for hobbies, but he does manage to get some poker playing in now and then. McLaughlin nearly made it through Day 2 of the main event of the 2007 World Series of Poker in Las Vegas. • Was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis in 1998 and takes daily injections to combat it.

Quick facts about Live Oak Plantation: • Live Oak is expected to be represented in the 2012 Classic by To

Honor and Serve and Brilliant Speed. • To Honor and Serve, one of Live Oak’s best horses ever, set a track record in the $1 million Pennsylvania Derby (G2) in 2011. To Honor and Serve won graded stakes at ages two, three and four, including wins in the Cigar Mile (G1) in ’11 and the Woodward Stakes (G1) in 2012. Live Oak bought the Bernardini colt for $575,000 at the 2009 Keeneland September yearling sale. • Homebred Brilliant Speed’s victories included the Blue Grass Stakes (G1) in 2011. After his run in the Classic, he is scheduled to stand stud at Three Chimneys Farm in Midway, Ky., in 2013. • Live Oak’s seventh Breeders’ Cup starter, homebred Miesque’s Approval, finally put it in the winner’s circle on World Championships day with a dominating four-length win in the 2006 NetJets Mile … The win was instrumental in the son of Miesque’s Son earning 2006 Eclipse Award as top turf horse … Miesque’s Approval subsequently was sold to South African interests for stallion duty. • Weber was introduced to horse racing at an early age by family members. She counts women such as Penny Chenery, Betty Moran, Josephine Abercrombie, Marylou Whitney, Elizabeth Arden, and Helen Groves as major influences on her racing philosophy. • In 1968, Weber acquired 1,000 acres of what had previously been the Ocala farm of Peter Arrell Brown (P.A.B.) Widener III, another Philadelphian who parlayed wealth first gained after providing meat to the Union Army and died one of the country’s wealthiest men. …

Renamed Live Oak Stud, the farm now encompasses 4,500 acres. • Live Oak Stud, Weber’s breeding operation, has seen its offspring earn at least $1 million on the track each year for the past decade … The operation was named the Outstanding Breeder/Owner of the Year by TOBA in 1991 … That year also saw Live Oak broodmare matriarch Sultry Sun named the Florida Broodmare of the Year. Her offspring Sultry Song and Solar Splendor were both Grade 1-winning millionaires. The former was 1992 Florida-bred horse of the year, the year his wins included the Hollywood Gold Cup, Whitney Handicap and Woodward Stakes, all Grade 1 events. Woodward win came on same day and same program as Solar Splendor won his second straight Man o’ War Stakes (G1). • While Live Oak has produced more than its share of top homebreds, it also dabbles in a big way at the markets: It purchased My Typhoon for a then-record price for a filly foal of just under $3 million at 2003 Tattersalls Sale. Her dam, Urban Sea, was France’s Arc winner in 1993, and the dam of champion and sire Galileo (Ire). ... My Typhoon went on to win the 2007 Diana (G1) and the 2006 Ballston Spa (G2) at Saratoga. • Live Oak spent $2 million at the 2009 Keeneland November mixed sale to purchase Private Feeling, the dam of 2009 champion juvenile and 2010 Preakness and Haskell Invitational (G1) winner Lookin at Lucky. • Live Oak has a network of trainers, most recently using Christophe

Clement, Bill Mott, Nick Zito, Seth Benzel and Marty Wolfson among several others. • Campaigned homebred High Fly, who won the Florida Derby (G1) in 2005, when Live Oak was named the National Owner of the Year by TOBA. Also earned award as Southern Regional Owner of the Year … High Fly’s half-brother Revved Up (by Sultry Song) achieved a reputation as an iron horse, finally being retired at age 11 after nine years of racing and earning more than $1.5 million; he had taken 20 of his 43 starts before finally returning to his Live Oak birthplace in Ocala. • Other top runners include Most Distinguished, Silver Charades, She’s Indy Money, Autobahn Girl, Stradivinsky, Tacit Agreement, Unbridled Humor, and Laser Light, runner-up to Gato del Sol in the 1982 Kentucky Derby. • Weber is the granddaughter of Campbell Soup founder John T. Dorrance and she serves as a board trustee of Campbell Soup Company … She also is a member of the board of trustees of the Metropolitan Museum of Art and provided funding for the Met Museum’s Charlotte C. Weber Galleries for the Arts of Ancient China. • Weber is a member of The Jockey Club, a board trustee of the Thoroughbred Owners and Breeders Association, a board member of the Florida Thoroughbred Breeders’ and Owners’ Association and a trustee of the National Museum of Racing and Hall of Fame … Weber was honored with the 2005 Penny Chenery Most Distinguished Woman in Racing Award.

Quick facts about Tom Albertrani: • Although he is still looking for his first Breeders’ Cup victory, Albertrani’s four previous starters have finished in the money, starting with Balletto’s third-place finish in the 2004 Juvenile Fillies. In 2006, Balletto finished third in the Ladies’ Classic, while his stable star, Bernardini finished second in the Classic behind Invasor ... Brilliant Speed, his most recent runner finished third in the 2011 Turf and now looks to close out his career with a victory in the Classic. • Albertrani’s top horses in 2012 have been Brilliant Speed and Zo Impressive. Brilliant Speed, winner of the 2011 Blue Grass Stakes (G1), has not won this year, but has picked up three third-place

finishes in the Bowling Green (G2), Sword Dancer (G1) and Woodford Reserve Turf Classic (G1) ... Zo Impressive had not been worse than second until finishing fourth in the Alabama Stakes (G1), where she suffered a career ending condylar fracture. Her top victory was the Mother Goose Stakes (G1). • A personal favorite in 2011 was Tropical Park Derby winner King Congie ... The colt, owned by West Point Thoroughbreds, was named after Congie DeVito, a longtime West Point employee who passed away at the age of 35 on Feb. 16, 2011. DeVito suffered from osteogenesis imperfecta, commonly known as brittle-bone disease, and was born with 25 broken bones. • Albertrani notched his lone Triple Crown victory with Bernardini, who captured the 2006 Preakness en route to being named that year’s champion 3-year-old. • Enjoyed his greatest success with Bernardini, whose 2006 victories included a streak of five straight stakes wins: the Jockey Club Gold Cup, Travers, Jim Dandy, Preakness and Withers. Bernardini was second to Invasor (Arg) in the 2006 Breeders’ Cup Classic . . . “It was a pleasure to be around a horse the caliber of Bernardini,” Albertrani said. “I was so fortunate to train him.” • At stud, Bernardini has become one of the most sought after sires... He covered 2010 Horse of the Year Zenyatta, and she produced a colt on March 8, 2012 ... In 2012, Bernardini also covered 2009 Horse of the Year Rachel Alexandra and 2010 3-year-old filly champion Blind Luck.

• Won the Tampa Bay Derby in 2010 with Odysseus, who suffered a hyperextended knee in the Blue Grass Stakes that prevented him from running in the Kentucky Derby and was unfortunately euthanized in August of that year due to laminitis. • In 2009, Albertrani sent out Gossip Girl to take the American Oaks and Sands Point and Criticism to triumph in the Long Island, for a second straight year, as well as the Sheepshead Bay. • His list of stakes winners also includes Deputy Glitters, Songster, Sauvage, and Barrier Reef and Stage Luck. • Albertrani first made his way to the Belmont Park backstretch at age 13 when he went to work walking hots and grooming horses for his uncle, trainer Jack Abatemarco. He eventually became a jockey and rode in 685 races over parts of six years and compiled a record of 49 wins, 70 seconds and 68 thirds with total purse earnings of $531,410. • Worked for trainer Mark Casse, first as an exercise rider/jockey and then as assistant trainer, before becoming Bill Mott’s top N.Y. assistant in 1986. During that time, Mott developed champions Theatrical and Paradise Creek and Cigar emerged as a superstar. His future wife, Fonda, was the regular exercise rider for two-time Horse of the Year, Cigar. • In 1995, was hired by Godolphin Racing and moved his family to Dubai, where he was a top assistant with the main Godolphin string of

trainer Saeed bin Suroor. Albertrani had been introduced to members of Sheikh Mohammed’s Godolphin operation because Mott handled a few of their horses. • Albertrani and his family moved to Dubai two days after Cigar won the 1995 Breeders’ Cup Classic at Belmont Park. Among the top horses he worked with were Street Cry (Ire), Imperial Gesture, Sakhee, Fantastic Light and Daylami (Ire). While Albertrani worked with bin Suroor, Godolphin won 85 Grade 1 and Group 1 races. • Albertrani and his brother, Louis, both celebrated Breeders’ Cup victories at Gulfstream the same day in 1999 with Daylami in the Turf and Artax in the Sprint. • In 2003, Albertrani began training in New York full-time with 10 horses for Darley, all owned by members of the Maktoum royal family of Dubai. Two years later, in Oct. 2005, Albertrani opened a public stable for the first time with the permission of Darley to take on some outside clients. • Albertrani registered his first official stakes winner as a trainer of record on Sept. 4, 2004, with Swither in the $250,000 NATC Sorority Futurity at Delaware Park for Darley and then saddled Balletto for his first Grade 1 win in the Frizette. • He currently has 45 horses stabled in New York, with Darley Stable, West Point Thoroughbreds and Live Oak his primary clients.

Breeder Phil and Judy Needham ... Born: Phil was born Feb. 7, 1942 in New York City, but moved as a toddler to Connecticut, where he grew up. ... Family: Two grown children. Quick facts about Phil and Judy Needham: • Bred one Breeders’ Cup starter in the 2011 edition, Dullahan, in partnership with Procter & Gamble executive Bena Halecky. The Even the Score colt finished fourth in the Juvenile after earning a “Win and You’re In” spot in the race by virtue of his Breeders’ Futurity victory earlier in the season at Keeneland Race Course. • Dullahan has continued to succeed in 2012, winning the Blue Grass Stakes at Keeneland en route to a third place finish in the Kentucky Derby. After the Triple Crown season, Dullahan challenged older competition for the first time and won the Pacific Classic Stakes at Del Mar in a track record-setting time. • The Needhams, along with Halecky, own Mining My Own, the dam of 2009 Kentucky Derby (G1) winner Mine That Bird and multiple Grade 1 winner Dullahan. The Needhams plan to continue selling her offspring. • Mining My Own produced a Giant’s Causeway colt in 2012 and was bred to Bernardini.

• The Needhams operated Needham/Betz Thoroughbreds with Bill Betz before the commercial breeding business was dissolved in 2008. The horses were raised on their 280-acre farm near the Fasig-Tipton Kentucky sales grounds in Lexington. • Top horses bred by Needham/Betz include leading sires and half brothers El Corredor (12th in 2001 Sprint) and Roman Ruler (fifth in the 2004 Juvenile) and Grade 1 winning half-sisters Dubai Escapade and Madcap Escapade, the latter two in partnership with Jim Blackburn. • The Needhams lived in Connecticut for a year when they were first married, but Judy didn’t care for it, so they moved to Kentucky and Phil got a job at Xalapa Farm, which was used as a backdrop for the 2003 movie “Seabiscuit.” • Needham is an avid cycler who once missed the Kentucky Derby in favor of a bicycle race. He watched Mine That Bird’s Derby on television shortly after completing a 123-mile bike race in Springfield, Ohio. • Phil met Judy when she was his riding instructor in college. • Phil graduated from St. Lawrence University and represented the school in show jumping. Served in the Peace Corps in Afghanistan. Judy went to St. Lawrence as well.

Quick facts about Donegal Racing: • Founded in 2008, Donegal Racing has already had numerous top runners carry its green and gold colors, the latest being multiple Grade 1 winner Dullahan. A half brother to 2009 Kentucky Derby (G1) winner Mine That Bird, Dullahan became the fourth 3-year-old to win the Pacific Classic (G1) when he won the 1-1/4-mile contest in Aug. 2012 in track record time. Dullahan previously captured the Breeders’ Futurity (G1) in Oct. 2011 and finished fourth behind eventual champion Hansen in the 2011 Breeders’ Cup Juvenile. Dullahan later defeated Hansen in the 2012 Blue Grass Stakes (G1) prior to running third in the Kentucky Derby. • Purchased for $250,000 at the 2010 Keeneland September yearling sale, Dullahan has helped Donegal rank among the top 20 owners by

• Paddy O’Prado became Donegal Racing’s first Breeders’ Cup contestant when he finished fifth in the 2010 Classic. Paddy O’Prado finished third in the 2010 Kentucky Derby (G1) but was switched to the turf by trainer Dale Romans following a sixth-place finish in the Preakness Stakes (G1). The gray colt proceeded to win four stakes races, including the 2010 Secretariat Stakes (G1), in his final six career starts before a fractured sesamoid in his right front ankle ended his career in May 2011. • An owner of horses for more than three decades, Crawford founded Donegal with partners Gary Kirke Sr., Gary Kirke Jr., Peter De Coster, Dennis Albaugh, Jason Loutsch, Judi Smith, George Cataldo, Dr. William Jacobson and Joe Savage. Crawford is the managing partner of the group. In Sept. 2008, Crawford spent $500,000 to purchase eight colts at auction, the most expensive of which was a son of El Prado later named Paddy O’Prado, who cost $105,000. “I went down hoping to buy a couple and with the same amount of money I was willing to invest in a couple, I was able to buy eight,” Crawford said. “I

came home and I said to a bunch of my friends, ‘If you all want to do a partnership, great, if you don’t, I’ll be happy to raise these horses myself’. And they were all excited about it.” • The name Donegal refers to the Irish county of origin of the Crawford family. The partnership is unique in that it buys one group of horses each year (usually six to eight colts) and its partners own a percentage of the entire group. “The way we do it is, we have one partnership a year, if you’re a partner you own part of every single racehorse that

year, and so if we have a big horse, as we have two of our first three years, well then you’re in on the big horse,” Crawford said. • Crawford is the managing owner of the Iowa Energy, the Des Moines NBA Development League team, and practices law for the firm Crawford & Mauro in the areas of government relations, litigation, racing and gaming, sports law, project development and policy initiatives. His legal career also includes participation in local, state, and national Democratic politics.

The 4-year-old also won the Churchill Downs (G2) in May and finished second in the Kelso (G2) in his final 2012 Breeders’ Cup prep. • Arguably the nation’s top 3-year-old turf horse, Silver Max has won races at six different tracks in 2012, taking the Transylvania Stakes (G3), American Turf (G2), Arlington Classic, Oliver Stakes and Virginia Derby (G2) before finishing fifth in the Secretariat (G1). • Scored upset with Moonwalk at odds of 36-1 in Keeneland’s Jessamine (G3). The win by a nose earned an automatic spot in the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf. • Two weeks after having his Kentucky Derby dreams dashed in the final yards as his pacesetter Shackleford faded to fourth, Romans captured the first Triple Crown race of his career when his stable star was able to turn the tables and hold off Kentucky Derby winner Animal Kingdom for a half-length victory in the 2011 Preakness Stakes ... His first Classic win came one year after he “hit the board” in all three Triple Crown races. Paddy O’Prado finished third in the Kentucky Derby and then stablemate First Dude finished second in the Preakness and third in the Belmont Stakes. • Paddy O’Prado made a successful return to the races in 2011, winning the Dixie Stakes on the Preakness undercard, but exited the race with an injury to the sesmoid bone of his right front leg and had to be retired ... Following a sixth-place finish in the 2010 Preakness, Paddy O’Prado developed into one of the top turf horses in the country, winning the Colonial Turf Cup Stakes (G2) and Virginia Derby (G2) at Colonial Downs and Secretariat Stakes (G1) at Arlington Park before

finishing second to Winchester in the Joe Hirsch Turf Classic Invitational (G1) in October ... He closed out the 2010 season with a fifth-place effort in the Breeders’ Cup Classic (G1). • Other top horses from Romans in 2011 are Sassy Image, who pulled the upset in the Humana Distaff (G1) on the Kentucky Derby undercard, Little Mike, a three-time stakes winner on turf at Gulfstream Park, and C.S. Silk, winner of the Just a Game Stakes (G1) in June at Belmont. • Following his tries in the Preakness and Belmont, First Dude added third-place finishes in both the Haskell Invitational Stakes (G1) at Monmouth Park and Travers Stakes (G1) at Saratoga Race Course before finishing second in the Pennsylvania Derby (G2). He closed out the year with an eighth-place finish in the Classic and after starting off his four-year-old season with a fourth-place effort in the Sunshine Millions Classic, was transferred to trainer Bob Baffert. • Experienced his breakout year in 2004 thanks in part to Eclipse Award-winning Kitten’s Joy, runner-up in the Turf, and Whitney Handicap (G1) winner Roses in May, runner-up in the Breeders’ Cup Classic. They were Romans’ first Breeders’ Cup starters ... Roses in May returned in 2005 to win the Donn Handicap (G1) and Dubai World Cup (UAE-G1) before being sent to Japan for stud duty. Kitten’s Joy also was retired in 2005 after finishing second in the Arlington Million (G1) and now ranks as a leading sire. • Won his 1,000th race on June 14, 2006, at Churchill Downs with C F O Lite ... Has won training titles at Churchill, Keeneland, and Turfway

Park … Key assistants are Baldemar Behena (Churchill Downs and his private Liberty Lane Training Center, Kentucky) and Mary Doser (New York and Florida). • Grew up on the Churchill Downs backstretch learning his trade from his father, Jerry Romans, who passed away in 2000 … Credits his father with having the greatest influence on his career. “The biggest thing he ever taught me – the racetrack is a small world. Don’t cheat anybody if you want to survive.” ... Says he also learned from watching other trainers at Churchill Downs, particularly Don Winfrey, Greg Foley, Angel Montana and Bernie Flint. “I watched the people [trainers] at the gap, watched what they’ve done right and what they’ve done wrong, and taken a little bit of good from all of them,” he said.

• In additon to working for his father, Romans worked for Hall of Fame trainer Woody Stephens for four months. He took out his first trainer’s license at age 18 and saddled his first winner on Feb. 15, 1987 at Turfway Park with a filly named Miss Mindy, whom he bought for $1,500. He also scored his first stakes win at Turfway with Morning Punch in the 1991 Florence Stakes. • Romans’ preparations of Sharp Humor for the 2006 Kentucky Derby was a focal point of the documentary “The First Saturday in May.” • Has won more than 1,400 races including nearly 600 at Churchill Downs.

Quick facts about Nikolaus Bock: • Flat Out, whom Bock bred in Florida, became only the 10th horse to win the Jockey Club Gold Cup (G1) twice when he captured back-to-back editions of the race in 2012 while being trained by Bill Mott. In 2011 while in the barn of Charles “Scooter” Dickey, Flat Out also won the Suburban (G2) and was second in the Whitney (G1), Woodward (G1) and Lone Star Handicap (G3). When Flat Out finished fifth in the 2011 Breeders’ Cup Classic, he was Bock’s first starter as a breeder or owner. • Bock has bred Thoroughbreds in Illinois and Florida, although he has not registered a foal in the Sunshine State in several years. In 2010, he registered two Illinois-bred foals. He purchased Flat Out’s dam, Cresta Lil, while she was carrying him for $5,000 from Claiborne Farm at the 2005 Keeneland November mixed sale and the next year she was sold to A. Renee McCollum for $3,500 at the 2006 Ocala Breeders Sale October mixed sale. Cresta Lil has not produced a registered foal since 2008. Flat Out was sold as a weanling for $11,800 at the 2006 OBS fall mixed sale and then he was sold again

• Bock purchased Native Roots, the dam of 2004 Breeders’ Cup Juvenile winner Wilko, when she was in foal to Talk is Money for $22,000 at the OBS 2004 winter mixed sale. He then bred her to Street Cry and put her up for sale. “I was getting offers of $50,000 for her and told them to forget it,” he said. “I sold her to someone in Ireland who I prefer not to name for six figures. The guys who bought her put her in foal to Street Cry at the 2005 Tattersalls Ltd. December mixed sale in Newmarket, England but then scratched her. They sold the foal privately but he never made it to the racetrack.” At the time, the Thoroughbred Times called the move a “tremendous pinhook for Illinois breeder Nikolaus Bock.” He also bred Gautier, who finished third in the $250,000 Golden Bear Stakes at Hoosier and the $75,000 Birdstone Stakes at Saratoga in 2011. • Bock said that he never went to the track, either in Europe or North America, or had any interest in racing until his friend, Edward Cox, brought him to the 1984 Arlington Million, won by John Henry. He was captivated and decided to get into the business. “My friend, Ed Cox, tried to talk me out of it,” he said. “I bought my first horse privately for $3,500 and named him Oberklaus. He made about $90,000 so that was a pretty good start.” • Bock currently races horses he owns in Illinois and West Virginia and boards about 20 mares in Kentucky at farms in Paris and Florence. “I like to buy mares at sales when others ignore them,” he said. May Apple, who produced a foal by Curlin and was bred back to him, is one of his mares.

• Bock is a director of Penson Futures, a Chicago-based full service futures commission merchant (FCM) providing futures execution and clearing services on the world’s major exchanges ... He was president of the biggest grain processing plant in Germany and came to the United States in 1975 after being recruited by executives of major

companies. “When I came here I was in charge of the largest soybean operation in the country,” he said. “Then I became a trader responsible for export business. In 1982 I joined the Chicago Board of Trade and had clients from around the world, mostly in the agricultural business.”

Quick facts about Preston Stables LLC: • Preston Stables won the 2012 TVG Jockey Club Gold Cup Invitational Stakes (G1) with Flat Out, who was winning for the first time since taking the 2011 renewal of the same race. Preston transferred Flat Out from trainer Charles (Scooter) Dickey to Bill Mott after the horse finished off the board in his first two starts of 2012. • Purchased Flat Out for $85,000 at the 2007 Fasig-Tipton Kentucky July Yearling Sale under his Oxbow Racing banner, a name under which Preston previously raced. He also campaigned as LOR (Lone Oak Racing) Stables. • Tends to name horses using first letter of sire’s name. • Preston buys young horses at various Thoroughbred auctions

throughout the year. Owns Oxbow Farm in Paris, Kentucky about 30 miles north of Lexington. The farm and training facility covers about 800 acres and houses about 50 horses – weanlings, yearlings, and horses of racing age. The property’s only broodmare is scheduled to be sold in November. Preston has about 25 horses in training, excluding yearlings. • Has spent more than four decades in the gas and oil business after launching his career as a geologist in the Illinois Basin which extends from central Illinois into western Kentucky. Preston and his brothers – Jack and the late J.R. – have partnered on numerous ventures involving gas and oil as well as real estate, Thoroughbred operations, cattle ranches, nutritional supplements marketing, fiber optics, restaurants, and geothermal power generation companies. • “In the oil business you get a dry hole and lose 80 percent of the time,” Preston said in a July 26, 2011 article in The Blood-Horse. “It’s like racing – if you persevere, you’re going to hit the big one.” • He and his brother Jack are often mistaken for one another. “We take turns – I’ve been out in California where people will congratulate me on a great win they think I had out there with Jack’s horse, and I’ll go ahead and tell them how I did it,” he said in a July 26, 2011 article in The Blood-Horse. • With their late brother J.R., Art and Jack Preston campaigned under their Prestonwood Farm banner. Their best horses include Da Hoss, who won the 1996 Breeders’ Cup Mile (G1) and returned two years later to win another Mile, and Groovy, runner-up in the Breeders’ Cup

Sprint (G1) and Eclipse Award champion sprinter in 1987. The brothers also campaigned 1999 Eclipse Award champion older male Victory Gallop, best remembered for spoiling Real Quiet’s Triple Crown bid in the 1998 Belmont Stakes (G1).

Farm when it was sold in 2000 to Kenny Troutt and Bill Casner. (Casner sold out to Troutt in October 2010.) WinStar is home to prominent stallion Tiznow, the only two-time winner of the Breeders’ Cup Classic.

• Art Preston entered the Thoroughbred world in the late 1970s when he purchased a percentage of a claiming horse. With brothers Jack and the late J.R., Preston established Preston Farm near Quanah, Texas, and later launched Prestonwood Farm in the heart of central Kentucky’s famed Bluegrass region. The farm was renamed WinStar

• According to his Presco Inc.’s Web site, Preston’s “companies have developed and sold numerous oil and gas assets, with cumulative sales prices (not counting normal production revenues) in excess of $400 million.”

Quick facts about Bill Mott: • Mott has had 69 career Breeders’ Cup starters, the first coming with Taylor’s Special in the 1986 Sprint. Taylor’s Special returned to the Sprint in 1987, the same year Mott picked up his first Breeders’ Cup victory with Theatrical in the Turf. • Mott’s eight Breeders’ Cup wins have come in three races: the Turf (Theatrical, 1987; Fraise, 1992); the Ladies’ Classic (Ajina, 1997; Escena, 1998; Unrivaled Belle, 2010; Royal Delta, 2011); and the Classic (Cigar, 1995; Drosselmeyer, 2011). • In Breeders’ Cup history, Mott is tied for third in wins and is second with $14,441,210 in purses. • Mott has trained six year-end champions: Royal Delta, the top 3-year-old filly of 2011; Ajina, the top 3-year-old filly of 1987; Cigar, the top older male and Horse of the Year in 1995 and 1996; Escena, the top older female of 1998; Theatrical, the top turf male of 1987; and Paradise Creek, the top turf male of 1994. • Mott’s phenomenal success at Churchill Downs – where he is the all-time wins leader – continued in 2012 when he captured the G1

Stephen Foster with Ron the Greek and the G2 Fleur de Lis with Royal Delta on the same June 16 card. “To me it’s great when you can win two races like that,” he said. “It’s something special to have a couple of nice horses and be able to compete in the best races. We have a handful of horses who can win those type of races and that’s what it’s all about.” • Other graded stakes triumphs in 2012 include To Honor and Serve in the G1 Woodward, Ron the Greek in the G1 Santa Anita Handicap and Royal Delta in the G2 Delaware Handicap. • Mott has enjoyed amazing success on his birthday, winning 14 races. His 2012 birthday present was Alaura Michele, who paid $15.60 for her win on the day the Hall of Fame trainer turned 59. “It’s like lions eating wildebeests, I suppose,” Mott said of the feat. “It’s part of nature’s plan.” Since 2006, $2 win bets on each of Mott’s July 29 starters generated a profit of $42.40. • In 2011, became only the second trainer to win both the Breeders’ Cup Classic and Breeders’ Cup Ladies’ Classic in the same year when he captured the Ladies’ Classic with Royal Delta and the Classic with Drosselmeyer. “Nice weekend,” the ever-humble Mott said to Daily Racing Form after Drosselmeyer’s victory. John Shirreffs was the first to win both races when Zenyatta won the Classic and Life Is Sweet took the Ladies’ Classic in 2009. • Other 2011 stakes wins included the G1 Alabama with Royal Delta, and the G1 Shoemaker Mile with Courageous Cat. Royal Delta also captured the G2 Black-Eyed Susan. Also, the G2 Churchill Distaff Turf

Mile with Aviate (GB), the G3 Poker with Courageous Cat, the G2 Brooklyn Handicap with Birdrun, the G3 Chicago Handicap with Devil by Design, and the $1 million G2 Pennsylvania Derby with To Honor and Serve. • In 2010, Mott picked up his first Triple Crown victory with Drosselmeyer’s upset of the Belmont Stakes at odds of 13-1. Mott has had only 14 Triple Crown starters: seven in the Kentucky Derby, two in the Preakness and five in the Belmont. • The son of a veterinarian, Mott would tag along on his father’s rounds and, as a result, knew from an early age that his life would be spent around horses. • Owned and trained his first horse, a $320 mare named My Assets, who he ran at unrecognized meets in South Dakota, winning his first race at a recognized track with her at now-defunct Park Jefferson. Aided by purse earnings from My Assets, he spent $2,000 on a horse named Kosmic Tour, who won the South Dakota Futurity at Park Jefferson before Mott was out of high school. • Worked for three years under Hall of Fame trainer Jack Van Berg, going out on his own in the fall of 1978. • In 1998, at the age of 45, Mott became the youngest trainer ever inducted into the National Museum of Racing and Hall of Fame in Saratoga Springs, N.Y., an honor previously held by Allen Jerkens. • Became the ninth trainer in North American Thoroughbred history to reach 4,000 wins with Mystic at Saratoga Race Course on Aug. 7,

2010. • When Victory Gallop won the 1998 Belmont Stakes, Mott saddled the horse for trainer Elliott Walden, who was sidelined with a leg injury. Walden is now the racing manager for WinStar Farm, which owns Drosselmeyer. • Was voted back-to-back Eclipse Awards as top trainer in 1995 and 1996, and was the recipient of the New York Turf Writers Association Outstanding Trainer Award in 1995, 1995 and 2000. Along with Cigar, late owner Allen Paulson and jockey Jerry Bailey, won the Turf Publicists of America Big Sport of Turfdom Award in 1996. • Will always be best remembered for his training of Cigar, winner of a record-tying 16 consecutive races in 1995-96. The streak included victories in the 1995 Breeders’ Cup Classic and the inaugural Dubai World Cup, and ended with the Arlington-Citation Challenge. Said Mott of Cigar, “He’s the best horse I’ve ever trained. He may be the best

horse anyone has ever trained.” • Cigar’s streak ended in the Grade 1 Pacific Classic, and he closed his racing career running third in the 1996 Breeders’ Cup Classic. Until passed by Curlin in 1998, Cigar retired as the highest money-earner of all-time with purses of $9,999,815. After a public retirement ceremony at Madison Square Garden in New York, Cigar was to join the stallion band at Ashford in Versailles, Ky., but due to infertility, is living out his days as a star attraction at the Kentucky Horse Park. • Mott has won nine training titles at Saratoga, 10 titles at Belmont Park, nine at Gulfstream Park and five at Keeneland. .He is the all-time winningest trainer at Churchill Downs, and set the record for number of victories at a single Churchill Downs meeting, 54, during the 1984 spring meet. • Currently has a stable of approximately 100 horses, based primarily in New York and Kentucky.

Quick facts about Ian Wilkes: • Fort Larned emerged as one of the country’s top older horses in 2012 and provided Wilkes with his biggest career score in Saratoga’s Whitney (G1) on Aug. 4. The 1-1/4-length win provided a guaranteed spot in the Breeders’ Cup Classic to Janis Whitham’s homebred 4-year-old son of E Dubai. … Fort Larned set the track record in Gulfstream’s Skip Away (G3), covering the 1-3/16 miles in 1:53.92. Also won the Cornhusker (G3) at Prairie Meadows and Tampa’s Challenger Stakes … The grandson of the great Bayakoa, two-time champion mare and winner of the 1989 and 1990 renewals of the Breeders’ Cup Distaff, was third in the Jockey Club Gold Cup (G1) in his most recent start. • Collected graded stakes wins in the Indiana Derby (G2) and Matt Winn

• Earned first stakes win in 2006 with Court Folly in Saratoga’s Grade 2 Amsterdam. • Wilkes has sent out two Breeders’ Cup starters – Capt. Candyman Can (2009, Sprint) and Warrior’s Reward (2010, Sprint), who both finished off the board. • Other stakes performers trained by Wilkes include Bearpath, who was second in the G3 Louisville Handicap at Churchill; Moonport, third in the $50,000 Cliff Guilliams at Ellis Park; and Motor City, third in the G3 Arlington-Washington Futurity. • Wilkes has more than 265 lifetime wins going into Breeders’ Cup 2012 for purse earnings of more than $12.5 million. • His win total includes 18 stakes, among them 10 graded races. • Based in Louisville, Ky. with 70 horses in training, Wilkes stables part of the year at Churchill Downs and nearby Skylight Training Center, sends a string to Saratoga in the summer, and winters at Palm Meadows Training Center in Florida. Keeps a small string at Belmont

Park in the fall. • Wilkes grew up on a dairy farm in New South Wales, Australia, and at age 16 began his career in racing as a groom and exercise rider ... Worked in the stables of Paul Sutherland, Vic Thompson Jr. and Colin Hayes. • While working for Hayes, arranged through a mutual friend to come to the United States and work for Hall of Fame trainer Carl Nafzger. • He arrived in the United States in 1989 and galloped horses for a year and half, including 1990 Kentucky Derby and Breeders’ Cup Classic winner Unbridled before returning to Australia for three years to train, coming back to the United States in 1993 to again work for Nafzger,

becoming the stable’s top assistant. • In early 2006, Nafzger semi-retired, working only for select clients, and turned the bulk of the stable over to Wilkes. Clients had already begun sending horses to Wilkes in the fall of 2005 as Nafzger began scaling back his involvement. He remains closely associated with Nafzger, who continues to train for a limited clientele. • For Nafzger’s longtime client James Tafel, Wilkes helped develop Street Sense, who won the 2006 Breeders’ Cup Juvenile and the next year became the first Juvenile winner to also win the Kentucky Derby. Wilkes’s wife Tracey regularly exercised Street Sense in morning training.

Quick facts about Bernard Schiappa: • Schiappa returns in 2012 for another shot at the Breeders’ Cup Classic with multiple G1 winner Game on Dude, in which he is a partner with the Lanni Family Trust, Diamond Pride Racing Stable of baseball’s Joe Torre and Ernie Moody’s Mercedes Stable. Game on Dude was run down by Drosselmeyer in the final eighth of a mile in the 2011 Classic, finishing second. • Schiappa engineered the private purchase of Game on Dude prior to the 2010 Florida Derby and sold him to the other partners. The horse remained with trainer Michael Mareina through the Florida Derby before being sent on to Hall of Fame trainer Bob Baffert. Game On Dude finished fourth in the 2010 Belmont Stakes (G1). • With partners Terrence Lanni and Ken Poslosky, Schiappa

campaigned Silic, winner of the 1999 Breeders’ Cup Mile. Lanni and Schiappa returned to the Breeders’ Cup in 2000 with another Mile prospect, Ladies Din, but that one finished eighth. Game on Dude became the partnership’s third Breeders’ Cup runner. • Schiappa’s first starter in a Triple Crown race was G1 stakes winner Sinister Minister, co-owned with the Lanni Family Trust and Mercedes Stable, LLC. Sinister Minister won the 2006 Blue Grass (G1) by 12-3/4 lengths, but finished 16th in the Kentucky Derby. Another G1 winner Schiappa owned in partnership with Lanni was Shining Energy, winner of the 2006 Gamely Breeders’ Cup Handicap. • In another partnership that included Lanni and Mike Sloan, Schiappa claimed Ladies Din in his second start for $32,000 as a 2-year-old from Meadowbrook Farm and trainer David LaCroix at Del Mar in Aug. 1997. He raced once for trainer Ron Ellis, then was turned over to Julio Canani. The son of Din’s Dancer was a multiple graded-stakes winner in his seven-year racing career and retired with nearly $2 million in earnings. His eighth-place finish in the 2000 Mile brought in no earnings. • Schiappa also races some horses in his own name. All Schiappa’s horses are with trainer Baffert. His blue silks with an orange basketball and orange sleeves are a tip of the cap to the NBA’s New York Knicks. • Retired in 2010 from his position as general manager of Fletcher Jones Imports, a Mercedes-Benz dealership in Las Vegas. Since Feb. 2011, manages some 200 horses for Ernie Moody’s Mercedes Stable, LLC, and also oversees any partnerships with the Lanni Family Trust.

• Became involved first with Standardbreds while living in New Jersey. He moved to Las Vegas in 1978 and became a partner with Terrence Lanni and Mike Sloan in his first Thoroughbred. That was the

beginning of a long-time friendship and horse partnership with Lanni, who died in 2011.

Breeder John Liviakis ... Born: Aug. 27, 1956 in Sacramento, Calif. ... Residence: Kentfield, Calif. ... Family: wife, Renee and five children: Audrey, Caroline, Katherine, Thomas and Michael. ... Education: After earning an associate’s degree from American River College he majored in business and economics at the University of California-Berkeley. ... Web site: www.liviakis.com Quick facts about John Liviakis: • Breeders’ Cup contenders Handsome Mike, Reneesgotzip and Renee’s Queen, all bred by Liviakis, will represent him for the first time as a breeder in the World Championships. In 2011, he came close as an owner and breeder with Sorrento Stakes (G3) winner Mighty Caroline. “She was one of the favorites for the Juvenile Fillies Turf, but she got hurt before the race and had to be scratched,” he said. “Now she’s one of my broodmares in Kentucky and is in foal to Lonhro. I am pretty excited about having three of the ones I bred run this year. I’ll be there rooting for all of them.” • Handsome Mike, a contender for the 2012 Classic, was sold to J. Paul Reddam after he placed in the Generous Stakes (G3) last year. Handsome Mike went on to race in Grade 1 competition and win the Pennsylvania Derby (G2) in an upset this year. “I was super high on the colt. I could tell when he was just a kid that he’s intelligent, has a nice personality, and is light on his feet. He has no wasted motion and has a beautiful way of going. But Paul Reddam really wanted him as a prospect for the Cash Call Futurity and you can’t keep them all,” he said. “You can’t sell the ones nobody wants. I sold him for a lot of

money.” So far, with the original price and the bonus factored, the total was $475,000. Handsome Mike is named for Liviakis’ father, Mike. • Liviakis’ wife, Renee, is the namesake for Reneesgotzip, who won the Santa Ynez Stakes (G2) by almost eight lengths this year as well as the C.E.R.F. Stakes, and Renee’s Queen, first in the Oak Tree Juvenile Fillies. • Other top runners that Liviakis has owned and/or bred include Gentle Audrey and Captain Kurt. He sold Renee’s Titan to Mrs. Paul Reddam after she chased probable Juvenile Fillies favorite Executiveprivilege in the Del Mar Debutante Stakes (G1) this summer. “Gentle Audrey was fourth in a Grade 1 and I had an offer of $1 million for her from Sheihk Mohammed (bin Rashid al Maktoum, the ruler of Dubai). But she had chips in her ankle and didn’t pass the vet test so I kept her. Captain Kurt was a grade one horse and one of the top horses in New Zealand, but he got hurt, too.”...Liviakis said that he also owned a Standardbred, Pretty Katherine, and she was a champion 2-year-old pacing filly and a world record holder....Gentle Audrey, Mighty Caroline and Pretty Katherine are named for his three daughters. • Liviakis buys racing prospects at the sales and sells horses, but in recent years he has gotten more invested in the breeding end of the business. He has 23 broodmares, including Mighty Caroline and Gentle Audrey, and nine weanlings plus nine yearlings at Hill ‘n’ Dale Farm, Taylor Made Farm and War Horse Farm in Kentucky. “My philosophy is to sell the ones people really want, keep the ones I like a lot, and give away the ones people don’t want,” he said ... Right now he has only two horses in training with Melody Conlon in Southern

California and Billy Morey at Golden Gate but nine 2-year-olds are on their way to the races...His game plan for buying at the sales is, “I’m trying to find the next stars, just like with the stock market, I’m looking for that one – the one nobody else has figured out yet,” he said.

breeding. “I am very interested in how to get the healthiest horse,” he said. “We use an advanced feeding program with the best nutrients and supplements and it’s expensive, but you can tell it works because all of my horses look healthy and look really good,” he said.

• Liviakis, formerly a licensed trainer, fell in love with horses and racing when as a child his father took him to the races at Cal Expo. “I was very into sports as a kid and here were all these beautiful Thoroughbreds competing. The horses are magic on earth and the greatest of God’s creatures. It was a thrill to see how athletic and magnificent they are.”... He said that he has made a study of equine sports medicine, genetics, training, nutrition, and all aspects of

• Liviakis became a stockbroker for E.F. Hutton out of college and soon was the firm’s top broker in the United States in under two years of being licensed. He later worked for Merrill Lynch and independently before founding his own company, Liviakis Financial Communications in 1986. He is recognized as a pioneer who redefined financial public relations by introducing ideas never before conceived. The company is considered to be the leading financial public relations firm in the world.

Quick facts about J. Paul Reddam: • Enjoyed a tremendous ride this past spring when his I’ll Have Another shocked the American racing scene by capturing the Kentucky Derby and Preakness Stakes in two stunning come-from-behind victories. As so often happens, despair dogged the owner and the horse when tendinitis developed in one leg and the colt had to be withdrawn from the Belmont Stakes, thus ending his quest for racing’s Triple Crown. Later, I’ll Have Another was sold by Reddam to Japanese interests for stud duty for $10 million. • Though he had only one runner in the 2011 Breeders’ Cup World Championships, he appears to be better-stocked this year, with such top runners as Handsome Mike, winner of the Pennsylvania Derby (G2); Know More, winner of Del Mar’s Best Pal Stakes (G2), and Quiet Oasis, winner of Hollywood Park’s Royal Heroine Mile (G2). • In advance of the 2011 Breeders’ Cup World Championships, Reddam acquired 2-year-old filly Self Preservation via private sale after a win in

a maiden race at Tipperary, Ireland, on June 23, 2011 and brought her to the United States in late August for a runner-up finish in the Sept. 3 Del Mar Debutante. The filly, trained by Ben Cecil, followed that with a fifth-place finish in Oak Leaf Stakes at Santa Anita on Oct. 2 and a fourth in the Juvenile Fillies. • Among his 16 Breeders’ Cup runners in 23 starts, Reddam has sent two to the winner’s circle: Wilko in the 2004 Juvenile and Red Rocks (Ire) in the 2006 Turf. Red Rocks returned to the Breeders’ Cup Turf in 2007, ’08 and ’09, finishing third, 10th and fifth, respectively in his other three efforts. • Wilko and Red Rocks are prime examples of the success that Reddam has had purchasing horses in Europe and then bringing them to the United States for the Breeders’ Cup ... In 2004, he bought 75 percent of Wilko, an Awesome Again colt, in England shortly before he scored in the Juvenile at Lone Star Park for trainer Jeremy Noseda ... In 2006, Irish-bred Red Rocks registered a 10-1 upset in that year’s 2006 Turf for trainer Brian Meehan. In 2008, Red Rocks, then trained by Mark Hennig, earned a spot in that year’s Turf by scoring an authoritative win over two-time Horse of the Year Curlin in Belmont Park’s the Man O’ War Stakes (G1) … Also in 2008, Square Eddie, who ran early in England, came to the United States to win Keeneland’s Breeders Futurity (G1) and finish second to Midshipman in the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile. In 2009, finished 10th in the Turf Sprint. He was trained by Doug O’Neill both years. • Other Breeders’ Cup success has come with Ashland Stakes (G1) and Hollywood Starlet (G1) winner Elloluv, runner-up in the 2003 Breeders’

Cup Distaff (now Ladies’ Classic) and Great Hunter, third in the 2006 Breeders’ Cup Juvenile ... Overall, his Breeders’ Cup starters, individually and in partnerships, have brought in purse earnings of $3,790,000. • Began pinhooking yearings in 2011 with them going to Ciaran Dunne’s Wavertree Stables to be sold as 2-year-olds. Of 10 he purchased, he has sold five, one is Grade 2 winner Know More, and another is highly regarded maiden winner We’ll Have Another. • Other G1 winners are Sharp Lisa, Cash Included, Swept Overboard and Pt’s Grey Eagle … Swept Overboard, who won the 2002 Metropolitan Handicap (G1) and the 2001 Ancient Title Handicap (G1), was a $700,000 dispersal buy from the late Marshall Naify’s 505 Farms in 2000. Swept Overboard was a close fourth in the 2001 Breeders’ Cup Sprint, beaten about a length for the big prize … Reddam’s G1-winning juvenile Crowded House, trained in England by Brian Meehan, started 2009 as the winter book favorite for the Epsom Derby before he suffered a respiratory infection and was sidelined. ... Other notable stakes winners include Spring At Last, winner of the Godolphin Mile (G2), Andujar, Momentum, Zillah the Hun, Notional, winner of the 2008 Salvator Mile (G3) at Monmouth Park, and Mistical Plan, winner of the 2008 Princess Rooney (G1) at Calder. • Has about 40 Thoroughbreds in training, 20 with Doug O’Neill, 9 with Ben Cecil, two with Simon Callaghan, five homebreds with Ed Freeman (who also breaks and starts his young horses and rehabs his layups), and a few on the East Coast with Mark Hennig and a few more in England with Brian Meehan. Uses Dennis O’Neill and Jamie

McCalmont as bloodstock agents, with McCalmont also his racing manager.

the company to General Motors in 1999. Serves as president of CashCall, a finance lending company in Fountain Valley, Calif.

• Has pensioned his stallion Momentum, but stands Square Eddie at Vessels, where the colt has bred 40 mares three years in a row. Plans to buy mares in foal to I’ll Have Another to foal at Vessels and have California-bred I’ll Have Anothers to race.

• Earned bachelor’s degree in psychology from the University of Windsor, master’s degree in philosophy from the University of Toronto, and Ph.D. in philosophy from the University of Southern California. Former philosophy professor at California State University, Los Angeles.

• Owns 20 broodmares at Vessels Stallion Farm in Southern California and Kingswood in Kentucky. Also owns Standardbreds that he races at Windsor Raceway in Canada and Cal Expo in Sacramento. • In 1995, founded Ditech.com, a mortgage loan company that was the first to use television and billboard advertising for current rates. Sold

• Introduced to racing during high school by a friend, Carlo Fisco, who worked as a Standardbred groom at Windsor Raceway. During the 1980s, put together harness syndicates while at Cal State L.A. and retains a strong interest in that sport. Claimed first Thoroughbred, Ocean Warrior, in 1988.

• Has saddled 19 Breeders’ Cup starters previously, with three winners: Stevie Wonderboy in the 2005 Juvenile, Thor’s Echo in the ’06 Sprint and Maryfield in the inaugural Filly & Mare Sprint in ’07. All three won Eclipse Awards in their divisions. Finished second in the 2008 Juvenile with Square Eddie. • Was on the wildest ride of his career this past spring when he saddled I’ll Have Another to win the Kentucky Derby and Preakness Stakes. However, as often happens, despair followed as the 3-year-old colt suffered tendinitis and was pulled from the Belmont Stakes, ending his quest for the Triple Crown. Later, the dual classic winner was sold by owner J. Paul Reddam to Japanese interests for $10 million. • Befriended Hope Hudson, a 12-year-old from Missouri who is battling a rare disease, after meeting her on the backstretch of Churchill Downs Derby week and brought her into the winner’s circle for both the Derby and Preakness. She and her family were at Churchill for her first up-close look at the Thoroughbreds she loves, thanks to the Make-A-Wish Foundation. • O’Neill had another setback not long after the Belmont as he was suspended for 40 days for an overage of carbon dioxide in one of his

horses in 2010 under the trainer insurer rule. The California Horse Racing Board determined he was not guilty of any wrongdoing, specifically ruling that he did not “milkshake” the horse, but as the trainer he is ultimately responsible for the health and welfare of horses in his care. His suspension began during the Del Mar meeting and ended Sept. 29, in time for him to resume training with an eye toward the Breeders’ Cup World Championships at Santa Anita.

• A perennial leading trainer in Southern California in recent years, he has won 25 titles on the circuit since 2002, including the spring/summer Hollywood Park and Del Mar titles in 2010. The Hollywood Park title was his fifth for the spring/summer meet. In 2007, he tied with Jeff Mullins, each saddling 26 winners, a record number for a Hollywood Park spring meet ... Most recently he was leading trainer at the 2011 Fairplex Meet.

• One of the nicer things that happened to the O”Neill Stable during the Del Mar meet was the purchase of the multiple graded stakes winner Richard’s Kid by several of his clients. In his first start for his new connections, Richard’s Kid finished in the Pacific Classic (G1), a race he had won the previous two years. He was trained by longtime O’Neill assistant Leandro Mora in O’Neill’s absence.

• His major performer in 2010 was Enriched, a half-brother to the retired Lava Man, the trainer’s multiple G1 winner. Enriched has posted eight in-the-money finishes, including three victories; his biggest win coming in the Del Mar Mile (G2).

• Mora, a former assistant to Brian Mayberry who O’Neill has referred to as the “Captain of the Team,” handled the stable for the rest of the Del Mar meet and chalked up 10 victories, giving the O’Neill stable 28 wins overall for the meet, but leaving O’Neill, himself, in third-place in the rankings behind Peter Miller and Bob Baffert with 18 victories. • Among the O’Neill prospects for the 2012 Breeders’ Cup is 2-year-old colt Know More, winner of Del Mar’s G1 Best Pal Stakes and the first first-time strater to win a graded stakes in memory at the seaside racetrack. His other possibe starters include Richard’s Kid, who was sixth in the 2009 Classic for then owner Arnold Zetcher and trainer Bob Baffert, and Handsome Mike, who earned a spot with his 19-1 upset of the $1 million Pennsylvania Derby.

• Top performers in 2009 were Informed, winner of the San Diego Handicap at Del Mar and Hollywood Park’s Californian Stakes, both G2 events; the filly Necessary Evil, winner of the Hollywood Championship Stakes (G3) against colts, and third in Del Mar’s Sorrento Stakes (G3), and Acting Lady, winner of the Providencia Stakes (G2). • Associated with one of the greatest claim stories in racing history with Lava Man. Claimed for $50,000 at Del Mar in Aug. 2004, the gelding was retired in Aug. 2008 with earnings of $5,268,706, more than $5-million since the claim by S T D Racing and Jason Wood. In 2006, Lava Man swept Southern California’s top three races for older horses – the Santa Anita Handicap, Hollywood Gold Cup and Del Mar’s Pacific Classic – the first time any horse won all three races in the same year. Lava Man’s third successive Hollywood Gold Cup in 2007 put him in the record books with the legendary Native Diver as the only

other horse to accomplish the feat. With the Gold Cup win over Hollywood Park’s Cushion Track, Lava Man became the first horse in history to win a G1 race over three different surfaces ... Lava Man now serves as a stable pony for O’Neill. • Won his 1,000th North American race when No Means Maybe captured the Bustles and Bows at Fairplex Park Sept. 13, 2007 … O’Neill’s first stakes win was Tanks Forthemusic in the 1996 CTBA Marian Stakes at Fairplex Park. • First major stakes winner was Classy Cara, winner of the 2000 Fantasy Stakes and Honeymoon Handicap … Won his first Grade 1 race when Sky Jack scored in the 2002 Hollywood Gold Cup (G1) ...

Won the 2003 Japan Cup Dirt with 48-1 longshot Fleetstreet Dancer, a $40,000 claim by O’Neill in 2002. • Named California Thoroughbred Breeders’ Association Trainer of the Year in 2002 and 2006. • Other stakes winners trained include Sharp Lisa, Supah Blitz, Cobalt Blue, Notional, Great Hunter, Shamdinan, Excessivepleasure and Super Freaky. • Began working at the track in 1986, right out of high school, and learned under Jude Feld, Hector Palma and Doug Peterson before taking out his license in 1994.

Breeder John D. and Carole A. Rio ... Born: John was born on July 27, 1956 in Tampa, Fla. and Carole was born on Sept. 20, 1970 in Englewood, N.J. ... Residence: Ocala, Fla. and they are constructing a 15+-acre farm in Sparr, Fla. ... Family: Daughter, Isabella ... Education: Carole is a licensed practical nurse. Quick facts about John D. and Carole A. Rio: • Under the name Caballo Grande, which means Big Horse in Spanish, the Rios operate a small breeding and pinhooking business on 40 leased acres at Rose Grove Farm in Ocala, Fla. Primarily commercial breeders, they occassionally keep a horse to race and currently have two fillies, one of whom is a half-sister to Mucho Macho Man named Macho Man’s Gold, in training with William White at Calder Race Course ... Mucho Macho Man, winner of the Suburban (G2), Gulfstream Park Handicap (G2) and Florida Sunshine Millions in 2012 and the 2011 Risen Star (G2), is the most accomplished horse they have bred. • Mucho Macho Man, who finished third in the 2011 Kentucky Derby and was the only Derby starter bred by the Rios, also will be their first Breeders’ Cup runner. “The colors of the Breeders’ Cup are purple and gold, and those are the same colors of Westminster,” she said. “Every year that I have shown my dogs, I’ve walked out of Madison Square Garden with an award, so I feel like maybe there is an omen there. Everyone dreams of having a horse in the Derby, but I dream of having one in the Breeders’ Cup, especially the Classic. It is such an honor to be in that race. They are established handicap horses and I

have a breeder’s mentality. I want to breed a lasting horse, not just one who is a one-race wonder. I want to breed a horse who will become a legend.” • Mucho Macho Man, who is named after the signature disco song by the Village People, was broken and received his early training by the Rios and was then sold privately to Dream Team Racing although they kept a minority share. After the horse’s first start, he was bought by Dean and Patti Reeves of Reeves Thoroughbred Racing, one of Dream Team’s partners. “So far in the horse business, we have been very fortunate,” said John. • The Rios bought Ponche de Leona, Mucho Macho Man’s dam, at the 2007 Keeneland mixed sale while she was in foal to Macho Uno from Adena Springs for $33,000. Mucho Macho Man has already earned more than $1.3 million. But when he was born, Carole thought his story would have a tragic ending. As she told The Blood-Horse, she knew that “Ponchie” had been a late cover and thus was expecting her to have a May foal. By Father’s Day on June 15, she was three weekes overdue and Carole had stayed up with her day and night, being only relieved for brief periods by John. The Rios had to leave the farm to attend to one of her dog shows so they left the mare out in the field to make her more comfortable and left farm manager Jeff Sekay in charge. As they were driving home at 3:30 in the afternoon, Sekay called to say that the foal was coming. “A few minutes later, he called back to say he thought the foal was dead,” recalled Carole, who does not like foaling mares out in the field. “When we arrived, Jeff and his wife were standing over the foal, praying. I was doing my own praying on the way there. When I arrived, I looked at him and he was lifeless.

Ponchie was standing over him, too. I couldn’t see any breathing. I started rubbing him and finally, I stopped and we all prayed together. Just then, this sucker jumped up started running. He didn’t just stand up, he jumped up and then ran off from the mare. It was bizarre. I remember saying to my husband, ‘Well, here’s your Father’s Day present.’ He said that we’d find out in two years how good of a gift it is.” Not surprisingly, Carole nicknamed Mucho Macho Man “Lazarus.” • The Rios consigned Mucho Macho Man’s dam to the 2009 OBS company October mixed sale, even though Carole said she was against the idea. When “Ponchie” brought only $5,000 after a miscommunication on the reserve price set, Carole was convinced that she had to get the mare back. Carole’s good friend Kathy Paul of Fanlew Farms in Louisiana was the buyer so she let the sale go through. But when the Rios started training Mucho Macho Man, they realized he was a good horse and Carole knew she had to get his dam back. Paul was unsure about the buy-back, but then the stars aligned for the Rios. The client Paul had bought the mare for ran into legal and financial trouble and Paul wanted to sell out to get her board money back. So the Rios were able to buy Ponchie back when she was in foal to Chestertown Slew. “The whole story is freaky,” Carole said. Nonetheless, the Rios sold Ponchie last year at the Keeneland November breeding stock sale and the mare was consigned by Three Chimneys Farm. “We have two foals on the ground now,” said Carole. “I also own a yearling who is a half-sister to Mucho Macho Man.” • The Rios plan to attend the 2012 Breeders’ Cup in Los Angeles to watch Mucho Macho Man compete. They were at Churchill Downs when he ran third in the Kentucky Derby last year. “When they broke

out of the gate and the announcer said, ‘They are off and running in the Kentucky Derby,’ I looked at my husband with tears in my eyes,” she recalled. “I had chills running up and down me and I can’t really express the unbelievable joy I felt. I said to myself that we have already won because whether he wins or runs dead last, we’re still the breeders of a Kentucky Derby starter.” • Carole grew up in New Jersey horse country and worked with broodmares and foals at several farms in the Colts Neck area, including the former Due Process Stable, where Hall of Fame inductee Open Mind and other top New Jersey-breds were bred during its heyday. She also is a former equestrian and competed in the upper levels of Grand Prix show jumping. John is a former jockey who rode at tracks in Illinois, Ohio, West Virginia and New Mexico. “I came onto the racetrack when I was 15 and started as a hot walker, was then a groom, then an exercise rider, and then started riding” he said. “For me, Beulah Park was elementary school, River Downs was high school, and college was when I came to Ocala to break horses,” he said. John worked for trainers Jack Van Berg and Frank Kirby and he said they taught him to break babies at Hondo Ranch in New Mexico.They met when John was galloping horses for Jacinto Vasquez and Carole’s sister had a horse being trained by that Hall of Fame rider. • Carole also breeds champion dogs, including Boston terriers, and has reached the pinnacle of success with her miniature pinschers. Her min-pin “Grand Champion Marlex Classic Red Glare”, a/k/a “Classie,” won Best of Breed at the Westmister Kennel Club Show, the most prestigious show on the circuit, in 2011 and repeated that feat in 2012.

Classie is currently rated as the #1 min-pin in the United States and this year she set the record for the winningest female of her breed in history. “The thrill I’ve had with her is amazingly exciting and joyful,” said Carole, who has not only bred and owned dogs but handled them in the show ring as well. “My love for breeding started with dogs and transferred to horses, which I’ve been around my whole life,” she said. • The Rios also sold the first Smarty Jones foal in the United States. “He was the sales topper, not just of the day but of the whole sale,” said John. That transaction was at the 2006 Ocala Breeders Sale fall mixed

sale. • The Rios’ 13-year-old daughter, Isabella, is a junior Olympic swimmer and competes with the Gator Swim Club, which is coached by the University of Florida team staff. “This has been a crazy, crazy year. Our horse made it to the Breeders’ Cup Classic, our dog made it to the top at Westminster, and our daughter made the Junior Olympics,” John said. “I guess you could say we’re at the top of our game. We are very fortunate.”

Quick facts about Hermitage Farm: • Pollard sold Hermitage, located about 20 miles northeast of Louisville. Ky. in an equestrian-rich area with several Thoroughbred breeding operations, to Louisville entrepreneurs and philanthropists Laura Lee Brown and Steve Wilson for an undisclosed amount in April 2010, but has continued his breeding operation on the property under a leaseback arrangement. The lease agreement is through 2013. • Established more than a half-century ago by Warner L. Jones Jr.,

Hermitage has been home to some of racing’s most storied horses, including Dark Star, who handed the legendary Native Dancer his lone career defeat in the 1953 Kentucky Derby, and Seattle Dancer, who was sold by Jones at the 1985 Keeneland July yearling sale for $13.1-million, a record at the time ... Pollard and Jones were good friends. After Jones died in Feb. 1994, Pollard bought Hermitage later that year. • Best horse to race is Caressing, winner of the 2000 Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies and that year’s Eclipse Award champion 2-year-old filly … Purchased Caressing as a yearling for $180,000. She now is one of the broodmares Pollard keeps at Hermitage. Her first two offspring (by Fusaichi Pegasus and Gone West) died as foals, but she has since produced four winners from five starters ... She delivered an Indian Charlie colt in 2012 and was bred back to 2011 Breeders’ Cup Classic winner Drosselmeyer. • Pollard typically buys a few fillies each year with the long-range plan of retaining them as broodmares …Hermitage is a regular consignor to the Keeneland yearling, weanling, and broodmare sales … Hermitage stands the Gone West stallion Pembroke. • Has horses in training with Kentucky-based David Vance. • Got involved in racing with a group of 10 friends called “The Tavern Club,” who together leased two fillies. • Former chairman of Churchill Downs and member of The Jockey Club … Former president and CEO of Humana hospitals and health-care

company … Once owned Louisville and Lexington branches of Nevada Bob’s Golf stores … Former board member of National City Bank, Kentucky, and former president of the Kentucky Derby Museum at Churchill Downs. • Previous Breeders’ Cup starters bred by Hermitage (since Pollard bought the farm): Jack Sullivan (12th in 2005 Classic); Marie J (4th in 1997 Juvenile Fillies); Northern Afleet (seventh in 1997 Sprint); Sensation (fifth in 2005 Juvenile Fillies); and Siphonic (in partnership) (third in 2001 Juvenile) and most recently, C.S. Silk (seventh in 2008

Juvenile Fillies) ... Will be represented for the first time since ’08 by Nonios in either the Classic or Dirt Mile. • Parts of Hermitage Farm are now being used for Hermitage International Training Center, which focuses primarily on carriage driving and provides an FEI regulation dressage arena, cones course, cross country obstacles, and trail system. It is now home to the annual Hermitage Classic, a unique three-day event featuring combined carriage driving competition.

Owner Green B. Smith Jr. ... Born: Sept. 14, 1948 ... Residence: Iola, Texas ... Family: wife Kathy and six children, five boys and one girl. Quick facts about Green B. Smith Jr.: • Smith “just decided” to buy a racehorse about 2-1/2 years ago ... Had been in the Greyhound racing business for 18 years and wanted to try another sport. • Met agent Christina Jelm at the Ocala Breeders’ Sale in 2010 and the following year she helped him purchase four horses and introduced him to trainer to Jerry Hollendorfer, who had gone to school with her father. • Among the four horses Green initially purchased and turned over to

Hollendorfer was Nonios, a candidate for either the Classic or Dirt Mile. • While Nonios did not make any of the Triple Crown races, he has been keeping tough company all year and picked up a win in the Affirmed Handicap (G3) ... He also finished second in the Haskell Invitational (G1) behind Paynter and in the Awesome Again (G1) behind Game On Dude. • Smith currently has about 10 horses, all with Hollendorfer. Among them is Scarlet Strike, owned in partnership with John Carver and Hollendorfer, a Smart Strike filly who has had the misfortune to be born in the same year as Executiveprivilege, finishing second to her in the 2012 Chandelier Stakes (G1).

• Smith has been the President and principal owner of S-Con, Inc. since its inception in 1990. Green has more than 40 years of Engineering, Procurement, Fabrication and Construction (EPC) experience in the

Quick facts about Jerry Hollendorfer: • Hall of Fame trainer is in the midst of another big year in 2012, though he no longer has his star of the past two years, Blind Luck, who has been retired and is in foal to Bernardini. After missing last year’s Ladies’ Classic because of an uncharacteristic off-the-board showing

in her final prep for the Breeders’ Cup, she was given time off with the idea of racing again in 2012. But owner Dr. Mark Dedomenico, who bought out his former partners for $2.5 million, retired her and bred her. Even so, Hollendorfer has trained 2012 graded stakes winners Nonios, City to City, Via Villagio, Halo Dolly and Capital Plan. • Earned his first Breeders’ Cup victory in the 2010 Dirt Mile with Dakota Phone and also had a runner-up fnish in the Ladies’ Classic with Blind Luck, his Kentucky Oaks winner who was voted the Eclipse Award as the year’s top 3-year-old female. Those scores provided him with earnings of $900,000 over the two-day championships. Prior to 2010, Hollendorfer saddled Blind Luck for a third-place finish in the 2009 Juvenile Fillies and Hystericalady for second in the 2007 Distaff, now the Ladies’ Classic. • Entered racing’s Hall of Fame in 2011, the only human chosen by the voters’ panel that year. He was joined in the induction by sterling racemares Open Mind, Safely Kept and Sky Beauty. Of his induction, he says: “You know my name goes on the plaque, but there should be a thousand other names on there of people who have contributed to all of this.” • Became just the fourth trainer in history to saddle 6,000 winners on Sept. 3, 2011. Fittingly, the victory came at Golden Gate Fields with all-time leading jockey Russell Baze aboard his horse Just Tappin It. Baze and Hollendorfer have combined for more than 2,500 victories in their Hall of Fame careers. • Blind Luck’s Kentucky Oaks victory was the third for Hollendorfer,

leaving him one shy of D. Wayne Lukas and two behind the late Woody Stephens. His other Oaks winners: Lite Light in 1991 and Pike Place Dancer in ’96.

learned from them.” It was while he was working for Fanning at Hollywood Park that he met his wife-to-be, Janet, who worked for trainer Mel Stute.

• His Kentucky Derby experiences have been snake-bitten. Favorite in 1998 Event of the Year fractured a knee the week before, with many feeling he could have won. Two years later, Globalize made it to within two days of the race before the stable pony kicked him on the way back to the barn. His finishes have often been marred by what many observers have thought were bad rides, a muddy track, or general bad luck, but Hollendorfer has never complained. Kentucky Derby finishes: 2011 Rousing Sermon 8th; 2009 Chocolate Candy 5th; 2007 Bwana Bull 15th; 2006 Cause to Believe 13th; 2003 Eye of the Tiger 5th.

• In his first six years as a trainer, won only 59 races combined, but gradually improved his numbers after that and now regularly wins races at about a 20 percent clip. Even in those early days, he was never discouraged. His take on that time: “I was just happy to be on the backside and happy to be working. Those were good days for me.” Working hard is one of Hollendorfer’s premier facets. He doesn’t vacation and he has no hobbies outside the racetrack except reading detective stories.

• Northern California’s all-time winning trainer. Won every training title at major Bay Area tracks from 1986 to 2008. Has been spending more time in Southern California in recent years. • Saddled 5,000th winner on Dec. 22, 2007, becoming only the fourth trainer to reach that milestone. • Love affair with the racetrack began as a teen-ager as he and buddies bet on races at the long-defunct Acton Park in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio, not too far from his hometown of Akron. It blossomed into a full-blown career when he went to the San Francsco area to visit friends in his early 20s. He talked his way onto the backstretch at Bay Meadows and talked his way into a job with trainer Jerry Dutton. He continured his apprenticeship with Jerry Fanning. Of his early training, Hollendorfer says: “I got to work for a couple of good guys. Most of what I do today I

• First hit the national radar in the late-1980s as King Glorious won the 1988 Hollywood Futurity and came back in 1989 to win the Ohio Derby and Haskell Invitational. Then came his early Oaks winners and such other stakes winners as Event of the Year, who possibly would have been the morning-line favorite for the 1998 Kentucky Derby had it not been for an injury that ended his career as a racehorse. Hollendorfer ranked Event of the Year as his best horse until Heatseeker. Other top horses he’s trained include Globalize, also hurt on his way to the 2000 Derby, Tuscan Evening, Chocolate Candy, Hystericalady, Blind Luck, Heatseeker and Dakota Phone. • Buys at the sales in the low to mid-range, often with his own money, and then puts partnerships of his various owners together, and retains part ownership of many horses he trains. Has spent millions on horses the last few years, never spending very much on any one individual.

Quick facts about Windfields Farm: • The 1,500-acre Windfields ceased to operate as a private farm in Oshawa, Ontario, Canada in 2009, after shutting down operations as a commercial venture in 2008. As of Nov. 1, 2008, the stallion station was closed and the boarding of mares and other ancillary businesses were stopped. When announcing the decision on Aug. 20, 2009 to shut down entirely, Judith Taylor Mappin termed it “difficult but inevitable.” The broodmares and weanlings were designated for auction at the Canadian Thoroughbred Horse Society mixed winter sale and the remaining bloodstock was dispersed at the Keeneland November sale. All of the farm’s remaining equipment was liquidated at auction on March 6, 2011. Windfields’ Maryland division had already been sold in 1988 and North Stallion Station and Rowland Farm occupy its former land.

• Taylor became the first Canadian member of The Jockey Club in 1953, and received Eclipse Awards as Outstanding Breeder in 1977 and 1983. Although Taylor was successful in many areas of the Thoroughbred industry, he will be best remembered as the breeder of Northern Dancer, Canada’s first Kentucky Derby winner and later one of the most influential sires in Thoroughbred history.Taylor and/or Windfields Farm bred a record 48 champions and 361 stakes winners, including winners of more than 10,000 races and over $84 million. • Windfields was the only farm to breed and sell at auction three Epsom Derby winners – Nijinsky II, The Minstrel and Secreto, all sons of Northern Dancer and all successful sires in their own right. Some of the top Windfields broodmares were Kamar, La Lorgnette, Smitten, South Ocean and Square Angel. Windfields was North America’s leading breeder in purses won nine times, leading breeder of stakes winners 13 times, and leading breeder by number of races won 19 times. The farm also was Canada’s leading racing stable 15 times, and Windfields-breds captured 21 runnings of Canada’s premier event, the Queen’s Plate. • When Taylor retired in 1980 after being incapacitated by a stroke, his son Charles took over management of the farm and Windfield’s focus shifted toward breeding and selling in the commercial marketplace. A prominent journalist and author, Charles Taylor quickly became a

major influence in the Thoroughbred industry as the farm produced a steady stream of record-breaking yearling consignments and internationally acclaimed runners. After Charles’ death in 1997, his sister Judith Taylor Mappin and his widow Noreen took the helm of the family’s beloved farm until its closure in 2009.

Ontario Institute of Technology and Durham College, which erected parking lots on the southeast corner of the farm. Some of the historic barns, the grave of Northern Dancer, plus a trillium forest where 15 of the famous Windfields horses are buried, have been preserved as a commemorative park. The other horses buried there include Archer’s Bay, Canadiana, New Providence, South Ocean, Vice Regent, Victoria Park, and Windfields.

• Windfields Farm bred five Breeders’ Cup starters including Flag Down, who ran third in the 1997 Turf and 12th in the 1994 Classic, 1994 Juvenile Fillies finisher Honky Tonk Tune, and 1996 Classic sixth place finisher Tamayaz. They also were the co-owners with Sam-Son Farm of two Breeders’ Cup starters – Regal Classic, runner-up in the 1987 Juvenile, and Regal Intention, who finished 10th in the 1989 Sprint. Windfield Farms was also the sole owner of Commemorate, who was the runner-up in the 1984 Sprint.

• During its heyday, Windfield bred two Eclipse Award winners, Devil’s Bag and Glorious Song in addition to European chamions Storm Bird, El Gran Senor, Shareef Dancer, Awaasif, Danzatore, and Try My Best. Other major stallions and stakes winners bred at Windfields include Storm Bird, Nijinsky II, the Minstrel, Vice Regent, Archer’s Bay, Saint Ballado and Northern Taste.

• After its closure, the Taylor family partnered with real estate developers to build residential homes on the east side of the property. As part of the downsizing, large portions were sold to the University of

• Peter Poole, who had worked at the farm since 1950 and was its general manager until his retirement, died on May 14, 2010 at the age of 89.

• Casse has won four Sovereign Awards as Canada’s top trainer, including in 2011, and in back-to-back-to-back years (2006-2007-2008) he set a record for the most consecutive wins. Six of his trainees are Sovereign Award winners and have a combined nine trophies among them- Delightful Mary (2010 Two-Year-Old Filly), Marchfield (2008-09 Outstanding Older Horse on dirt), Sealy Hill (2007 Three-Year-Old Filly, Turf Female, and Horse of the Year), Kimchi (2006 Three-Year-Old Filly), Added Edge (2002 Two-Year-Old Male) and Exciting Story (1999 Two-Year-Old Male). • Casse is having another exceptional year in 2012 to build upon his record-setting success in 2011. A top trainer at Woodbine for more than a decade, he is on track to win his sixth consecutive title and seventh overall when the meet concludes. He has been the top juvenile trainer there for the past 14 years.

Quick facts about Mark E. Casse:

• Once again, Casse has a bevy of promising two-year-old fillies in his barn in 2012, including Spring Venture, who earned a spot in the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf by winning the Natalma Stakes (G2), which is a “Win and You’re in Race,” at Woodbine. Her stablemate, John Oxley’s Spring in the Air, closed strongly for second. In 2011, Northern Passion took the same route to the Juvenile Fillies, where she finished seventh. Spring Venture was Casse’s fourth Natalma winner in seven years.

• Casse has started 10 horses in the Breeders’ Cup and came close in 2008 with Canadian Filly Triple Crown winner Sealy Hill, who led in deep stretch, but finished second in the Filly and Mare Turf. Five of his horses have competed in the Juvenile Fillies.

• Casse’s very impressive undefeated 2-year-old colt Uncaptured took the 2012 Clarendon, Vandal, and Swynford Stakes after breaking his maiden at first asking for owner Oxley. Casse plans to send him to Santa Anita to train on dirt for the 2012 Breeders’ Cup Juvenile. “He’s

2010 2011

a beautiful moving horse. He’s just all class,” said Casse. • Casse has added to a strong 2012 with 3-year-olds winning graded stakes. Oxley’s filly Dixie Strike won the Prince of Wales Stakes, the second jewel in the Canadian Triple Crown, after finishing third against the boys in the first leg, the prestigious Queens Plate. She also won the Selene Stakes (G3) and the Florida Oaks. Prospective and Stealcase, both owned by Oxley as well, are multiple 2012 derby winners, with Prospective taking the Tampa Bay Derby (G2) and the Ohio Derby (G3) and Stealcase notching the Ontario Derby (G3). • Casse oversees an expansive stable of over 80 horses and is based at Woodbine in Ontario, Canada, with divisions in New Orleans and California, while his wife Tina operates a training center in Ocala, Fla. named Moonshadow Farm. His son, Norman, is his top assistant and they employ more than 50 people in the United States and Canada. Casse is the former private trainer and operations director for the massive Mockingbird Farm, which former owner Harry Mangurian dispersed in 1999. • In 2011, he won a record 119 races at Woodbine and more purses than any other horseman in a single year ($6,670,906) to eclipse the mark he set in 2007. • Casse won the 1,000th race of his career on Aug. 9, 2008 when

Laragh won a maiden allowance for juvenile fillies at Woodbine. • One of his favorite horses is Sealy Hill, the only filly to capture the Canadian Filly Triple Crown and a Eugene Melnyk homebred who was retired after nearly winning the 2008 Breeders’ Cup Filly and Mare Turf and is now a top young broodmare for Melynk. “I really miss having her in the barn,” Casse said. “Maybe I’ll be fortunate enough to have one of her babies to train soon.”. His other good horses have included Met Mile (G1) upset winner Exciting Story, 2011 Stephen Foster Handicap (G1) winner Pool Play, Seaside Retreat, who ran 10th in the 2006 Kentucky Derby, Top Notch Lady, who competed in the 2006 Kentucky Oaks, Marchfield, winner of the $500,000 Breeders’ Stakes (G1) in 2007 and the Sky Classic (G2) in 2009. • Father, Norman, retired as the chairman of the board of the Ocala Breeders’ Sales in 2006 and is a 40-year-plus veteran of Thoroughbred owning, breeding and training. • Casse immersed himself in Thoroughbred racing when only 12 years old. A trip in a horse van with his father to see Secretariat win the Kentucky Derby in 1973 in track record time completely hooked him. He began running his father’s Cardinal Hill Farm when he was only 15 and began training officially when he was 18. He won his first race in 1979 at Keeneland.

• After emigrating from Syria to the United States in 1964, Paul Sr. was taken to the races at Santa Anita by a friend, and he became an instant fan, buying into a claimer with that same friend. In 1999, he decided to start building a stable with his sons as partners. “He passed on his love for racing by taking us to the races when we were growing up,” said Paul Jr. That passion has been passed on to the next generation. “My kids love going to the racetrack,” Christopher says. True to the family’s passion, the entire family is expected to be at Santa Anita Park for the 2012 Breeders’ Cup.

• Triple B Farms, majority owner of Richard’s Kid, will be making its fourth appearance in the Breeders’ Cup Championships, having been eighth with Vino Tinto in the 2003 Juvenile Fillies, second in the 2007 Turf with Shamdinan and 11th in the Juvenile Fillies Turf as a partner with Three Chimneys Racing in Elusive Galaxy.

• Has saddled 19 Breeders’ Cup starters previously, with three winners: Stevie Wonderboy in the 2005 Juvenile, Thor’s Echo in the ’06 Sprint and Maryfield in the inaugural Filly & Mare Sprint in ’07. All three won Eclipse Awards in their divisions. Finished second in the 2008 Juvenile with Square Eddie. • Was on the wildest ride of his career this past spring when he saddled I’ll Have Another to win the Kentucky Derby and Preakness Stakes. However, as often happens, despair followed as the 3-year-old colt suffered tendinitis and was pulled from the Belmont Stakes, ending his quest for the Triple Crown. Later, the dual classic winner was sold by owner J. Paul Reddam to Japanese interests for $10 million. • Befriended Hope Hudson, a 12-year-old from Missouri who is battling a rare disease, after meeting her on the backstretch of Churchill Downs Derby week and brought her into the winner’s circle for both the Derby and Preakness. She and her family were at Churchill for her first up-close look at the Thoroughbreds she loves, thanks to the Make-A-Wish Foundation. • O’Neill had another setback not long after the Belmont as he was suspended for 40 days for an overage of carbon dioxide in one of his

horses in 2010 under the trainer insurer rule. The California Horse Racing Board determined he was not guilty of any wrongdoing, specifically ruling that he did not “milkshake” the horse, but as the trainer he is ultimately responsible for the health and welfare of horses in his care. His suspension began during the Del Mar meeting and ended Sept. 29, in time for him to resume training with an eye toward the Breeders’ Cup World Championships at Santa Anita.

• A perennial leading trainer in Southern California in recent years, he has won 25 titles on the circuit since 2002, including the spring/summer Hollywood Park and Del Mar titles in 2010. The Hollywood Park title was his fifth for the spring/summer meet. In 2007, he tied with Jeff Mullins, each saddling 26 winners, a record number for a Hollywood Park spring meet ... Most recently he was leading trainer at the 2011 Fairplex Meet.

• One of the nicer things that happened to the O”Neill Stable during the Del Mar meet was the purchase of the multiple graded stakes winner Richard’s Kid by several of his clients. In his first start for his new connections, Richard’s Kid finished in the Pacific Classic (G1), a race he had won the previous two years. He was trained by longtime O’Neill assistant Leandro Mora in O’Neill’s absence.

• His major performer in 2010 was Enriched, a half-brother to the retired Lava Man, the trainer’s multiple G1 winner. Enriched has posted eight in-the-money finishes, including three victories; his biggest win coming in the Del Mar Mile (G2).

• Mora, a former assistant to Brian Mayberry who O’Neill has referred to as the “Captain of the Team,” handled the stable for the rest of the Del Mar meet and chalked up 10 victories, giving the O’Neill stable 28 wins overall for the meet, but leaving O’Neill, himself, in third-place in the rankings behind Peter Miller and Bob Baffert with 18 victories. • Among the O’Neill prospects for the 2012 Breeders’ Cup is 2-year-old colt Know More, winner of Del Mar’s G1 Best Pal Stakes and the first first-time strater to win a graded stakes in memory at the seaside racetrack. His other possibe starters include Richard’s Kid, who was sixth in the 2009 Classic for then owner Arnold Zetcher and trainer Bob Baffert, and Handsome Mike, who earned a spot with his 19-1 upset of the $1 million Pennsylvania Derby.

• Top performers in 2009 were Informed, winner of the San Diego Handicap at Del Mar and Hollywood Park’s Californian Stakes, both G2 events; the filly Necessary Evil, winner of the Hollywood Championship Stakes (G3) against colts, and third in Del Mar’s Sorrento Stakes (G3), and Acting Lady, winner of the Providencia Stakes (G2). • Associated with one of the greatest claim stories in racing history with Lava Man. Claimed for $50,000 at Del Mar in Aug. 2004, the gelding was retired in Aug. 2008 with earnings of $5,268,706, more than $5-million since the claim by S T D Racing and Jason Wood. In 2006, Lava Man swept Southern California’s top three races for older horses – the Santa Anita Handicap, Hollywood Gold Cup and Del Mar’s Pacific Classic – the first time any horse won all three races in the same year. Lava Man’s third successive Hollywood Gold Cup in 2007 put him in the record books with the legendary Native Diver as the only

other horse to accomplish the feat. With the Gold Cup win over Hollywood Park’s Cushion Track, Lava Man became the first horse in history to win a G1 race over three different surfaces ... Lava Man now serves as a stable pony for O’Neill. • Won his 1,000th North American race when No Means Maybe captured the Bustles and Bows at Fairplex Park Sept. 13, 2007 … O’Neill’s first stakes win was Tanks Forthemusic in the 1996 CTBA Marian Stakes at Fairplex Park. • First major stakes winner was Classy Cara, winner of the 2000 Fantasy Stakes and Honeymoon Handicap … Won his first Grade 1 race when Sky Jack scored in the 2002 Hollywood Gold Cup (G1) ...

Won the 2003 Japan Cup Dirt with 48-1 longshot Fleetstreet Dancer, a $40,000 claim by O’Neill in 2002. • Named California Thoroughbred Breeders’ Association Trainer of the Year in 2002 and 2006. • Other stakes winners trained include Sharp Lisa, Supah Blitz, Cobalt Blue, Notional, Great Hunter, Shamdinan, Excessivepleasure and Super Freaky. • Began working at the track in 1986, right out of high school, and learned under Jude Feld, Hector Palma and Doug Peterson before taking out his license in 1994.

Breeder/Co-Owner Jack T. Hammer ... Residence: Miami Beach, Fla. Quick facts about Jack T. Hammer: • A certified property manager and licensed real estate broker, Hammer is the breeder and co-owner of Ron the Greek, who has developed into one of the top older males in training in 2012. After winning five of his first 15 career starts, the 5-year-old son of Full Mandate began his turnaround with a pair of minor Aqueduct stakes wins in winter of 2011. • Since then, Ron the Greek has been first or second in five of six 2012 starts, winning the Stephen Foster (G1) at Churchill Downs in June and the Santa Anita Handicap (G1) in March. He was runner-up in the Whitney (G1) and Oaklawn Handicap (G2), as well as the Sunshine Millions Classic at Gulfstream Park. • Hammer named Ron the Greek after his friend, Ron Skrumbellos, himself a longtime Thoroughbred breeder who first saw the young colt on the farm in Ocala, Fla. and was inspired by him during a two-year battle with lung cancer. An avid golfer, horseman and fisherman, Skrumbellos died at the age of 68 in Aug. 2010 without ever seeing his namesake run.

• Founded Buckingham Stables, a racing and breeding venture, in Florida in April 1998. Serves as director and sole owner, with Douglas Trivers employed as secretary. • Campaigned Forty One Carats, who won seven of 22 starts and $828,843 in purses from 1998-2001, including the Grade 2 Pegasus Handicap in 1999, when he set a Meadowlands track record of 1:45.40 for 1-1/8 miles. A son of Tactical Advantage trained by David Fawkes, Forty One Carats also set a track record winning the 2000 Smile Handicap at Calder, going six furlongs in 1:08.95. • Forty One Carats suffered a condylar fracture while running fifth in the Memorial Day Handicap at Calder in May 2001. He underwent sucessful surgery to repair the damage, but was euthanized in the following weeks after developing an infection after the procedure. • A life member of the Atlanta Board of Realtors Million Dollar Round Table, Hammer is also founder of HSI Management, which operates 5,000 multi-family units, and chairman of the board of the American Opportunity Foundation, a non-profit organization that advocates for affordable housing, and a founding member of the Southeastern Affordable Housing Management Association.

Quick facts about Brous Stable: • Along with Adam Wachtel and breeder Jack Hammer, co-owns Ron the Greek, a 5-year-old son of Full Mandate who has emerged as one of the top older males in training in 2012. After winning just five of his first 15 career starts, Ron the Greek has two wins and three seconds in six races this year, both victories coming in Grade 1 stakes: the Stephen Foster Handicap at Churchill Downs in June, and the Santa Anita Handicap in March. He was second in the Whitney (G1) and Oaklawn Handicap (G2), and Sunshine Millions Classic. • Brous also partnered with Wachtel in Al Khali, winner of the Bowling Green (G2) in 2010 and Saranac (G3) in 2009. Trained by Bill Mott, Al Khali was seventh in the 2010 Breeders’ Cup Turf and finished as runner-up in his two most recent starts, the Sword Dancer Invitational

(G1) at Saratoga in August and the Northern Dancer Turf Stakes (G1) at Woodbine in September. • Got into the ownership game in Jan. 2005 when he was part of the group that purchased Attila’s Storm. Trained in New York by Rich Schosberg, Attila’s Storm won the Grade 3 Toboggan, was second in the Grade 2 A.G. Vanderbilt and third in the Grade 1 King’s Bishop in 2007 before being retired. He ran in two editions of the Breeders’ Cup Sprint, running fourth in 2005 and fifth in 2006, both at odds of more than 40-to-1. In 2005, he completed a superfecta that returned $35,358. • Brous and Wachtel met when they tried to buy a company from Joe Sweedler, who was an original partner in Attila’s Storm. The pair also owned stakes winner Yate’s Black Cat, who ran second in the 2009 Sycamore (G3) to eventual Breeders’ Cup Marathon winner Cloudy’s Knight, and continue to campaign Desert Wheat, who has won eight stakes and placed in 11 others in Louisiana and Kentucky. • A private equity investor, Brous worked for Goldman Sachs on Wall Street as an investment banker after graduating from Harvard. For the next 10 years, he did private equity investing for Kohlberg, Kravis, Roberts. • He was raised in Woodmere, N.Y., near Belmont Park, and his father owned a couple of horses that ran there. “I went with him to the stables at 5 o’clock in the morning and always loved it,” he said. “I always wanted to own horses and now that I have more time, I can be more involved.”

Co-Owner Adam Wachtel ... Born: July 9, 1962 in Suffern, N.Y. ... Residence: Briarcliff Manor, N.Y. ... Family: wife, Susan; daughter, Emma; stepchildren, Lauren and Matthew. ... Education: B.B.A. in business administration, 1984; J.D., 1988; Emory University. Quick facts about Adam Wachtel: • Wachtel, 50, is the son of prominent New York owner Ed Wachtel who grew up around the New York circuit tracks and bought his first horse, Ms. Stalwart, as a student at Emory College. He has bred and owned several stakes winners on his own and in partnership with his father and others. As a broodmare, Ms. Stalwart has produced six winners from six starters, including graded stakes winner Stalwart Member. • Has more than two dozen horses in training, led by standouts Ron the Greek and Al Khali, both multiple graded stakes winners. Co-owned by Nils Brous and trained by Hall of Famer Bill Mott, Al Khali has just one allowance win in eight 2012 starts, but was second in a pair of Grade 1 races -- the Sword Dancer at Saratoga and the Northern Dancer Turf Stakes at Woodbine -- in his two most recent outings. • A son of Medaglia d’Oro, Al Khali owns wins in the Saranac (G3) at Saratoga in 2009 and the Bowling Green (G2) at Belmont Park in 2010 and has placed in three other graded stakes. He shows seven wins from 33 starts and nearly $1 million in purse earnings.

• A 5-year-old son of Full Mandate, co-owned by Brous and breeder Jack Hammer, Ron the Greek evolved into a two-time Grade 1 winner in 2012, capturing the Stephen Foster at Churchill Downs in June and the Santa Anita Handicap in March. He also has run second in the Whitney Handicap (G1), Oaklawn Handicap (G2) and Sunshine Millions Classic this year. • Entering the year, Ron the Greek showed five wins from 15 career starts, including a pair of minor stakes at Aqueduct in 2011 and the LeComte (G3) at Fair Grounds in 2010 in his 3-year-old debut. Ron the Greek lost nine consecutive races between the LeComte and the Sunny and Mild Stakes at Aqueduct in Nov. 2011. • Now with Mott, Ron the Greek was previously trained by Tom Amoss, Tom Albertrani and Peter Walder. Wachtel, who keeps eight mares and stands the stallion One Nice Cat at Keane Stud near Armenia, N.Y., also employs trainers Chris Englehart, Dale Romans, Billy Morey and Allen Iwinski. • Purchased Attila’s Storm in 2005 after having watched him run as a 2-year-old in California, and shipped him to New York to race for an ownership group that included Brous, Barry K. Schwartz and Double S Stable. Attila’s Storm made two starts in the Breeders’ Cup, running fourth in the 2005 Sprint, completing a $35,358 superfecta at odds of 45-to-1, and fifth in the 2006 Sprint, only a length behind runner-up Friendly Island.

Quick facts about Bill Mott: • Mott has had 69 career Breeders’ Cup starters, the first coming with Taylor’s Special in the 1986 Sprint. Taylor’s Special returned to the Sprint in 1987, the same year Mott picked up his first Breeders’ Cup victory with Theatrical in the Turf. • Mott’s eight Breeders’ Cup wins have come in three races: the Turf (Theatrical, 1987; Fraise, 1992); the Ladies’ Classic (Ajina, 1997; Escena, 1998; Unrivaled Belle, 2010; Royal Delta, 2011); and the Classic (Cigar, 1995; Drosselmeyer, 2011). • In Breeders’ Cup history, Mott is tied for third in wins and is second with $14,441,210 in purses. • Mott has trained six year-end champions: Royal Delta, the top 3-year-old filly of 2011; Ajina, the top 3-year-old filly of 1987; Cigar, the top older male and Horse of the Year in 1995 and 1996; Escena, the top older female of 1998; Theatrical, the top turf male of 1987; and Paradise Creek, the top turf male of 1994. • Mott’s phenomenal success at Churchill Downs – where he is the all-time wins leader – continued in 2012 when he captured the G1

Stephen Foster with Ron the Greek and the G2 Fleur de Lis with Royal Delta on the same June 16 card. “To me it’s great when you can win two races like that,” he said. “It’s something special to have a couple of nice horses and be able to compete in the best races. We have a handful of horses who can win those type of races and that’s what it’s all about.” • Other graded stakes triumphs in 2012 include To Honor and Serve in the G1 Woodward, Ron the Greek in the G1 Santa Anita Handicap and Royal Delta in the G2 Delaware Handicap. • Mott has enjoyed amazing success on his birthday, winning 14 races. His 2012 birthday present was Alaura Michele, who paid $15.60 for her win on the day the Hall of Fame trainer turned 59. “It’s like lions eating wildebeests, I suppose,” Mott said of the feat. “It’s part of nature’s plan.” Since 2006, $2 win bets on each of Mott’s July 29 starters generated a profit of $42.40. • In 2011, became only the second trainer to win both the Breeders’ Cup Classic and Breeders’ Cup Ladies’ Classic in the same year when he captured the Ladies’ Classic with Royal Delta and the Classic with Drosselmeyer. “Nice weekend,” the ever-humble Mott said to Daily Racing Form after Drosselmeyer’s victory. John Shirreffs was the first to win both races when Zenyatta won the Classic and Life Is Sweet took the Ladies’ Classic in 2009. • Other 2011 stakes wins included the G1 Alabama with Royal Delta, and the G1 Shoemaker Mile with Courageous Cat. Royal Delta also captured the G2 Black-Eyed Susan. Also, the G2 Churchill Distaff Turf

Mile with Aviate (GB), the G3 Poker with Courageous Cat, the G2 Brooklyn Handicap with Birdrun, the G3 Chicago Handicap with Devil by Design, and the $1 million G2 Pennsylvania Derby with To Honor and Serve. • In 2010, Mott picked up his first Triple Crown victory with Drosselmeyer’s upset of the Belmont Stakes at odds of 13-1. Mott has had only 14 Triple Crown starters: seven in the Kentucky Derby, two in the Preakness and five in the Belmont. • The son of a veterinarian, Mott would tag along on his father’s rounds and, as a result, knew from an early age that his life would be spent around horses. • Owned and trained his first horse, a $320 mare named My Assets, who he ran at unrecognized meets in South Dakota, winning his first race at a recognized track with her at now-defunct Park Jefferson. Aided by purse earnings from My Assets, he spent $2,000 on a horse named Kosmic Tour, who won the South Dakota Futurity at Park Jefferson before Mott was out of high school. • Worked for three years under Hall of Fame trainer Jack Van Berg, going out on his own in the fall of 1978. • In 1998, at the age of 45, Mott became the youngest trainer ever inducted into the National Museum of Racing and Hall of Fame in Saratoga Springs, N.Y., an honor previously held by Allen Jerkens. • Became the ninth trainer in North American Thoroughbred history to reach 4,000 wins with Mystic at Saratoga Race Course on Aug. 7,

2010. • When Victory Gallop won the 1998 Belmont Stakes, Mott saddled the horse for trainer Elliott Walden, who was sidelined with a leg injury. Walden is now the racing manager for WinStar Farm, which owns Drosselmeyer. • Was voted back-to-back Eclipse Awards as top trainer in 1995 and 1996, and was the recipient of the New York Turf Writers Association Outstanding Trainer Award in 1995, 1995 and 2000. Along with Cigar, late owner Allen Paulson and jockey Jerry Bailey, won the Turf Publicists of America Big Sport of Turfdom Award in 1996. • Will always be best remembered for his training of Cigar, winner of a record-tying 16 consecutive races in 1995-96. The streak included victories in the 1995 Breeders’ Cup Classic and the inaugural Dubai World Cup, and ended with the Arlington-Citation Challenge. Said Mott of Cigar, “He’s the best horse I’ve ever trained. He may be the best

horse anyone has ever trained.” • Cigar’s streak ended in the Grade 1 Pacific Classic, and he closed his racing career running third in the 1996 Breeders’ Cup Classic. Until passed by Curlin in 1998, Cigar retired as the highest money-earner of all-time with purses of $9,999,815. After a public retirement ceremony at Madison Square Garden in New York, Cigar was to join the stallion band at Ashford in Versailles, Ky., but due to infertility, is living out his days as a star attraction at the Kentucky Horse Park. • Mott has won nine training titles at Saratoga, 10 titles at Belmont Park, nine at Gulfstream Park and five at Keeneland. .He is the all-time winningest trainer at Churchill Downs, and set the record for number of victories at a single Churchill Downs meeting, 54, during the 1984 spring meet. • Currently has a stable of approximately 100 horses, based primarily in New York and Kentucky.

Owner Besilu Stables ... Owner(s): Benjamín León ... Born: Dec. 4, 1944 in Oriente, Cuba.

• León’s first equine interests were Paso Fino show horses; he has owned and bred numerous champions.

Quick facts about Besilu Stables: • Besilu Stables is the name of Benjamín León’s racing operation.

• “Since I was young, I’ve been fascinated by horses. I’d get in trouble for drawing pictures of horses in history class. As long as I can remember, I’ve been passionate about horses and playing baseball,” León told Ocala.com in 2011.

• León has a number of horses in training, but hasn’t yet brought to the races the yearlings he bought in 2011, saying that he wants to take his time with his horses. Royal Delta is his only stakes winner.

• León was a record-setting competitive softball player, winning four national and world titles in Sept. 1981. He was inducted into the National Softball Hall of Fame in Feb. 1988.

• As the owner of Royal Delta, he has won the Fleur de Lis Handicap (G1), the Delaware Handicap (G2), and the Beldame (G1); Royal Delta ran second in the Personal Ensign (G1) in Saratoga. In March 2012, she finished ninth in the Dubai World Cup.

• In 1996, León established Leon Medical Centers.

• In 1970, León Jr. and his father founded Clínica Asociación Cubana (CAC), which in 1973 was granted Florida’s first HMO license.

• He first began buying Thoroughbreds in 2008 and has purchased the sale-topper at three recent sales: an A.P. Indy-Maryfield colt for $1.2 million at Saratoga in 2010; an A.P. Indy-Balance colt (named Mr. Besilu) for $4.2 million at the 2010 Keeneland September sale; and Royal Delta for $8.5 million in 2011 at Keeneland November. • Among León’s equine purchases are mares for a broodmare band; they and his young horses are with his Paso Fino horses, known as the Besilu Collection, at his farm in Ocala.

• The León family sold CAC in 1977; two years later, León Jr. purchased it back, selling it in 1994 to UnitedHealthCare for $500 million.

• León’s father, Benjamín Sr., with a group of doctors and other professionals, founded Clínica Cubana in 1964, to serve Cuban emigrants; Benjamín Jr. later joined his father as the first director of member services at the Clinic. • The León family – Benjamín, his brother, and his parents – emigrated from Cuba in 1961.

Quick facts about Bill Mott: • Mott has had 69 career Breeders’ Cup starters, the first coming with Taylor’s Special in the 1986 Sprint. Taylor’s Special returned to the Sprint in 1987, the same year Mott picked up his first Breeders’ Cup victory with Theatrical in the Turf. • Mott’s eight Breeders’ Cup wins have come in three races: the Turf (Theatrical, 1987; Fraise, 1992); the Ladies’ Classic (Ajina, 1997; Escena, 1998; Unrivaled Belle, 2010; Royal Delta, 2011); and the Classic (Cigar, 1995; Drosselmeyer, 2011). • In Breeders’ Cup history, Mott is tied for third in wins and is second with $14,441,210 in purses. • Mott has trained six year-end champions: Royal Delta, the top 3-year-old filly of 2011; Ajina, the top 3-year-old filly of 1987; Cigar, the top older male and Horse of the Year in 1995 and 1996; Escena, the top older female of 1998; Theatrical, the top turf male of 1987; and Paradise Creek, the top turf male of 1994. • Mott’s phenomenal success at Churchill Downs – where he is the all-time wins leader – continued in 2012 when he captured the G1

Stephen Foster with Ron the Greek and the G2 Fleur de Lis with Royal Delta on the same June 16 card. “To me it’s great when you can win two races like that,” he said. “It’s something special to have a couple of nice horses and be able to compete in the best races. We have a handful of horses who can win those type of races and that’s what it’s all about.” • Other graded stakes triumphs in 2012 include To Honor and Serve in the G1 Woodward, Ron the Greek in the G1 Santa Anita Handicap and Royal Delta in the G2 Delaware Handicap. • Mott has enjoyed amazing success on his birthday, winning 14 races. His 2012 birthday present was Alaura Michele, who paid $15.60 for her win on the day the Hall of Fame trainer turned 59. “It’s like lions eating wildebeests, I suppose,” Mott said of the feat. “It’s part of nature’s plan.” Since 2006, $2 win bets on each of Mott’s July 29 starters generated a profit of $42.40. • In 2011, became only the second trainer to win both the Breeders’ Cup Classic and Breeders’ Cup Ladies’ Classic in the same year when he captured the Ladies’ Classic with Royal Delta and the Classic with Drosselmeyer. “Nice weekend,” the ever-humble Mott said to Daily Racing Form after Drosselmeyer’s victory. John Shirreffs was the first to win both races when Zenyatta won the Classic and Life Is Sweet took the Ladies’ Classic in 2009. • Other 2011 stakes wins included the G1 Alabama with Royal Delta, and the G1 Shoemaker Mile with Courageous Cat. Royal Delta also captured the G2 Black-Eyed Susan. Also, the G2 Churchill Distaff Turf

Mile with Aviate (GB), the G3 Poker with Courageous Cat, the G2 Brooklyn Handicap with Birdrun, the G3 Chicago Handicap with Devil by Design, and the $1 million G2 Pennsylvania Derby with To Honor and Serve. • In 2010, Mott picked up his first Triple Crown victory with Drosselmeyer’s upset of the Belmont Stakes at odds of 13-1. Mott has had only 14 Triple Crown starters: seven in the Kentucky Derby, two in the Preakness and five in the Belmont. • The son of a veterinarian, Mott would tag along on his father’s rounds and, as a result, knew from an early age that his life would be spent around horses. • Owned and trained his first horse, a $320 mare named My Assets, who he ran at unrecognized meets in South Dakota, winning his first race at a recognized track with her at now-defunct Park Jefferson. Aided by purse earnings from My Assets, he spent $2,000 on a horse named Kosmic Tour, who won the South Dakota Futurity at Park Jefferson before Mott was out of high school. • Worked for three years under Hall of Fame trainer Jack Van Berg, going out on his own in the fall of 1978. • In 1998, at the age of 45, Mott became the youngest trainer ever inducted into the National Museum of Racing and Hall of Fame in Saratoga Springs, N.Y., an honor previously held by Allen Jerkens. • Became the ninth trainer in North American Thoroughbred history to reach 4,000 wins with Mystic at Saratoga Race Course on Aug. 7,

2010. • When Victory Gallop won the 1998 Belmont Stakes, Mott saddled the horse for trainer Elliott Walden, who was sidelined with a leg injury. Walden is now the racing manager for WinStar Farm, which owns Drosselmeyer. • Was voted back-to-back Eclipse Awards as top trainer in 1995 and 1996, and was the recipient of the New York Turf Writers Association Outstanding Trainer Award in 1995, 1995 and 2000. Along with Cigar, late owner Allen Paulson and jockey Jerry Bailey, won the Turf Publicists of America Big Sport of Turfdom Award in 1996. • Will always be best remembered for his training of Cigar, winner of a record-tying 16 consecutive races in 1995-96. The streak included victories in the 1995 Breeders’ Cup Classic and the inaugural Dubai World Cup, and ended with the Arlington-Citation Challenge. Said Mott of Cigar, “He’s the best horse I’ve ever trained. He may be the best

horse anyone has ever trained.” • Cigar’s streak ended in the Grade 1 Pacific Classic, and he closed his racing career running third in the 1996 Breeders’ Cup Classic. Until passed by Curlin in 1998, Cigar retired as the highest money-earner of all-time with purses of $9,999,815. After a public retirement ceremony at Madison Square Garden in New York, Cigar was to join the stallion band at Ashford in Versailles, Ky., but due to infertility, is living out his days as a star attraction at the Kentucky Horse Park. • Mott has won nine training titles at Saratoga, 10 titles at Belmont Park, nine at Gulfstream Park and five at Keeneland. .He is the all-time winningest trainer at Churchill Downs, and set the record for number of victories at a single Churchill Downs meeting, 54, during the 1984 spring meet. • Currently has a stable of approximately 100 horses, based primarily in New York and Kentucky.

Quick facts about Twin Creeks Farm: • Twin Creeks Farm is the co-breeder of To Honor and Serve, who stamped himself as a leader in the 2012 older horse division when he won the Woodward Stakes (G1) at Saratoga Race Course. To Honor and Serve was sold as a weanling for $250,000 at the Keeneland November breeding stock sale and resold to current owner Live Oak Plantation for $575,000 at Keeneland’s September yearling sale. “To

Honor and Serve was a long, leggy colt, the kind you would think could run the classic distance,” Twin Creeks Team Manager Randy Gullatt said in the Oct. 4, 2011 issue of The Blood-Horse. “We hoped he would develop into what he has turned out to be, which is awesome.” Twin Creeks sold Pilfer, the dam of To Honor and Serve, for $650,000 at the 2008 Keeneland November breeding stock sale. • Twin Creeks Farm and Twin Creeks Racing are owned by Steve Davison who has been involved in the Thoroughbred industry for over 20 years as a racehorse owner, farm owner, and breeder. He recently purchased “The Sheets,” the popular handicapping tool used by trainers, handicappers, and industry professionals. • An attorney from Ruston, La., Davison is a principal owner in Genesis Energy, LP, a publicly traded energy and transportation company. He also is the developer of Squire Creek Country Club, the top-rated residential golf course community in Choudrant, La. • Davison and team manager Randy Gullatt have been best friends since kindergarten and when Randy began his career as a trainer, Steve bought a couple of horses in 1985 and put them in Randy’s care. Those runners included stakes winner La Paz who they eventually sold as a broodmare for $1.6-million at the 2000 Keeneland November breeding stock sale. In 2008, Twin Creeks purchased La Paz’s colt for $200,000 at the Keeneland September yearling sale. He blossomed into Grade 2 winner Mission Impazible for Twin Creeks. • Gullatt, a trainer for eight years in Louisiana, Arkansas, California and Kentucky, is responsible for selecting the horses purchased for Twin

Creeks Racing and managing the racing career of the stable, while Davison is primarily responsible for the organization of the partnership and the evaluation and purchase of yearlings. Gullatt’s wife Kim, a former jockey, handles marketing and client relations for Twin Creeks. Todd Pletcher, Mike Maker, Dale Romans and Steve Asmussen train for the Twin Creeks Racing partnerships.

• Twin Creeks Farm was established in 1992 and is nestled on nearly 180 rolling acres in picturesque Nonesuch, Kentucky on the fringe of Central Kentucky’s famed bluegrass region. The farm is home to about 25 broodmares. The farm breeds for the commercial market typically consigning horses under their own banner or with Taylor Made Sales Agency. Horses that are not expected to sell well are retained for the racing division.

Quick facts about Rancho San Miguel: • Rancho San Miguel, located on 250 acres in the central coast foothills near Paso Robles, Calif., is co-breeder of multiple graded stakes winner To Honor and Serve with Twin Creeks Farm and Larry Byer. To Honor and Serve appears headed for the 2012 Breeders’ Cup Classic. • Hystericalady, co-owned with trainer Jerry Hollendorfer and Dr. George Todaro, is Rancho San Miguel’s most accomplished stakes performer to date. She was runner-up in the 2007 Breeders’ Cup Distaff, now the Ladies’ Classic, and was fifth in the 2008 edition of the Distaff ... Hystericalady was purchased at Keeneland in Sept. 2004 for $125,000, by Jerry Hollendorfer in partnership with Dr. George Todaro and Rancho San Miguel. With her win in the 2008 Delaware Handicap, she became the richest horse in Hollendorfer’s career and the richest horse to come from Northern California. (Hystericalady trained under

Hollendorfer at Golden Gate Fields). Hystericalady was purchased as a racing prospect, but also because of her potential as a broodmare. “She was a racing prospect but also has a very good pedigree,” Clark said. “She has plenty of residual value as a broodmare prospect. Distorted Humor is the hottest sire right now.” ... She was sold through Taylor Made Sales Agency right after the 2008 Breeders’ Cup in the Keeneland November sale for $3 million to Darley. • Other stakes winners for the farm include Press Camp and Congressionalhonor, winner of the 2004 Bay Meadows Derby. • Owns about 25 mares and is actively pursuing bringing top quality mares to California to go with the higher quality stallions he is trying to establish in the state. • The ranch, bought in April 2007 by Tom and Nancy Clark, is considered one of California’s top stallion stations. Its stallion roster consists of Comic Strip, Marino Marini, McCann’s Mojave, Onebadshark, Sierra Sunset, Slew’s Tiznow, Southern Image, Storm Wolf and The Pamplemousse. The ranch gets creative to get stallions out to California, like entering into sharing agreements with established Kentucky farms like Lane’s End and Taylor Made, and seeking high-end castoffs that don’t make the cut at places like Coolmore yet have exceptional breeding and conformation. • Clark lived in California in the 1980’s and had 2-year-olds he was racing go to Rancho San Miguel to be broken and used the farm for layups. He thought it could make a good commercial operation, especially with the great breeders’ awards program in California. When

it became available and he was retired, he bought it and built a stallion barn. Clark kept longtime general manager Clay Murdock, and brought out Dr. Jake Lynch from Kentucky’s Rood and Riddle Equine Hospital to run the breeding operation. • Tom Clark grew up on a Pennsylvania horse farm. “I’ve always had this passion for horses,” he said. “Now, I’m living my dream.” His grandfather, Francis “Buck” Clark, trained on the Maryland-Philadelphia circuit for many years. His father, Tom Sr., owned Thoroughbreds for decades, mostly claimers. He caught the bug and bought his first horse in the 1980s.

• Tom is a former NewYork investment banker, who spent 13 years with Morgan Stanley before starting his own business. Nancy, who managed a California horse farm before their marriage, takes an active role in the ranch and breeding operation. Although his family never had horses better than $10,000 claimers, he now is able to race and breed at the stakes level and wants to improve California breeding in the process. • Tom Clark earned business degrees from Virginia Tech and Harvard and his wife, Nancy, holds a degree in animal science from the University of California, Davis.

Quick facts about Live Oak Plantation: • Live Oak is expected to be represented in the 2012 Classic by To

Honor and Serve and Brilliant Speed. • To Honor and Serve, one of Live Oak’s best horses ever, set a track record in the $1 million Pennsylvania Derby (G2) in 2011. To Honor and Serve won graded stakes at ages two, three and four, including wins in the Cigar Mile (G1) in ’11 and the Woodward Stakes (G1) in 2012. Live Oak bought the Bernardini colt for $575,000 at the 2009 Keeneland September yearling sale. • Homebred Brilliant Speed’s victories included the Blue Grass Stakes (G1) in 2011. After his run in the Classic, he is scheduled to stand stud at Three Chimneys Farm in Midway, Ky., in 2013. • Live Oak’s seventh Breeders’ Cup starter, homebred Miesque’s Approval, finally put it in the winner’s circle on World Championships day with a dominating four-length win in the 2006 NetJets Mile … The win was instrumental in the son of Miesque’s Son earning 2006 Eclipse Award as top turf horse … Miesque’s Approval subsequently was sold to South African interests for stallion duty. • Weber was introduced to horse racing at an early age by family members. She counts women such as Penny Chenery, Betty Moran, Josephine Abercrombie, Marylou Whitney, Elizabeth Arden, and Helen Groves as major influences on her racing philosophy. • In 1968, Weber acquired 1,000 acres of what had previously been the Ocala farm of Peter Arrell Brown (P.A.B.) Widener III, another Philadelphian who parlayed wealth first gained after providing meat to the Union Army and died one of the country’s wealthiest men. …

Renamed Live Oak Stud, the farm now encompasses 4,500 acres. • Live Oak Stud, Weber’s breeding operation, has seen its offspring earn at least $1 million on the track each year for the past decade … The operation was named the Outstanding Breeder/Owner of the Year by TOBA in 1991 … That year also saw Live Oak broodmare matriarch Sultry Sun named the Florida Broodmare of the Year. Her offspring Sultry Song and Solar Splendor were both Grade 1-winning millionaires. The former was 1992 Florida-bred horse of the year, the year his wins included the Hollywood Gold Cup, Whitney Handicap and Woodward Stakes, all Grade 1 events. Woodward win came on same day and same program as Solar Splendor won his second straight Man o’ War Stakes (G1). • While Live Oak has produced more than its share of top homebreds, it also dabbles in a big way at the markets: It purchased My Typhoon for a then-record price for a filly foal of just under $3 million at 2003 Tattersalls Sale. Her dam, Urban Sea, was France’s Arc winner in 1993, and the dam of champion and sire Galileo (Ire). ... My Typhoon went on to win the 2007 Diana (G1) and the 2006 Ballston Spa (G2) at Saratoga. • Live Oak spent $2 million at the 2009 Keeneland November mixed sale to purchase Private Feeling, the dam of 2009 champion juvenile and 2010 Preakness and Haskell Invitational (G1) winner Lookin at Lucky. • Live Oak has a network of trainers, most recently using Christophe

Clement, Bill Mott, Nick Zito, Seth Benzel and Marty Wolfson among several others. • Campaigned homebred High Fly, who won the Florida Derby (G1) in 2005, when Live Oak was named the National Owner of the Year by TOBA. Also earned award as Southern Regional Owner of the Year … High Fly’s half-brother Revved Up (by Sultry Song) achieved a reputation as an iron horse, finally being retired at age 11 after nine years of racing and earning more than $1.5 million; he had taken 20 of his 43 starts before finally returning to his Live Oak birthplace in Ocala. • Other top runners include Most Distinguished, Silver Charades, She’s Indy Money, Autobahn Girl, Stradivinsky, Tacit Agreement, Unbridled Humor, and Laser Light, runner-up to Gato del Sol in the 1982 Kentucky Derby. • Weber is the granddaughter of Campbell Soup founder John T. Dorrance and she serves as a board trustee of Campbell Soup Company … She also is a member of the board of trustees of the Metropolitan Museum of Art and provided funding for the Met Museum’s Charlotte C. Weber Galleries for the Arts of Ancient China. • Weber is a member of The Jockey Club, a board trustee of the Thoroughbred Owners and Breeders Association, a board member of the Florida Thoroughbred Breeders’ and Owners’ Association and a trustee of the National Museum of Racing and Hall of Fame … Weber was honored with the 2005 Penny Chenery Most Distinguished Woman in Racing Award.

Quick facts about Bill Mott: • Mott has had 69 career Breeders’ Cup starters, the first coming with Taylor’s Special in the 1986 Sprint. Taylor’s Special returned to the Sprint in 1987, the same year Mott picked up his first Breeders’ Cup victory with Theatrical in the Turf. • Mott’s eight Breeders’ Cup wins have come in three races: the Turf (Theatrical, 1987; Fraise, 1992); the Ladies’ Classic (Ajina, 1997; Escena, 1998; Unrivaled Belle, 2010; Royal Delta, 2011); and the Classic (Cigar, 1995; Drosselmeyer, 2011). • In Breeders’ Cup history, Mott is tied for third in wins and is second with $14,441,210 in purses. • Mott has trained six year-end champions: Royal Delta, the top 3-year-old filly of 2011; Ajina, the top 3-year-old filly of 1987; Cigar, the top older male and Horse of the Year in 1995 and 1996; Escena, the top older female of 1998; Theatrical, the top turf male of 1987; and Paradise Creek, the top turf male of 1994. • Mott’s phenomenal success at Churchill Downs – where he is the all-time wins leader – continued in 2012 when he captured the G1

Stephen Foster with Ron the Greek and the G2 Fleur de Lis with Royal Delta on the same June 16 card. “To me it’s great when you can win two races like that,” he said. “It’s something special to have a couple of nice horses and be able to compete in the best races. We have a handful of horses who can win those type of races and that’s what it’s all about.” • Other graded stakes triumphs in 2012 include To Honor and Serve in the G1 Woodward, Ron the Greek in the G1 Santa Anita Handicap and Royal Delta in the G2 Delaware Handicap. • Mott has enjoyed amazing success on his birthday, winning 14 races. His 2012 birthday present was Alaura Michele, who paid $15.60 for her win on the day the Hall of Fame trainer turned 59. “It’s like lions eating wildebeests, I suppose,” Mott said of the feat. “It’s part of nature’s plan.” Since 2006, $2 win bets on each of Mott’s July 29 starters generated a profit of $42.40. • In 2011, became only the second trainer to win both the Breeders’ Cup Classic and Breeders’ Cup Ladies’ Classic in the same year when he captured the Ladies’ Classic with Royal Delta and the Classic with Drosselmeyer. “Nice weekend,” the ever-humble Mott said to Daily Racing Form after Drosselmeyer’s victory. John Shirreffs was the first to win both races when Zenyatta won the Classic and Life Is Sweet took the Ladies’ Classic in 2009. • Other 2011 stakes wins included the G1 Alabama with Royal Delta, and the G1 Shoemaker Mile with Courageous Cat. Royal Delta also captured the G2 Black-Eyed Susan. Also, the G2 Churchill Distaff Turf

Mile with Aviate (GB), the G3 Poker with Courageous Cat, the G2 Brooklyn Handicap with Birdrun, the G3 Chicago Handicap with Devil by Design, and the $1 million G2 Pennsylvania Derby with To Honor and Serve. • In 2010, Mott picked up his first Triple Crown victory with Drosselmeyer’s upset of the Belmont Stakes at odds of 13-1. Mott has had only 14 Triple Crown starters: seven in the Kentucky Derby, two in the Preakness and five in the Belmont. • The son of a veterinarian, Mott would tag along on his father’s rounds and, as a result, knew from an early age that his life would be spent around horses. • Owned and trained his first horse, a $320 mare named My Assets, who he ran at unrecognized meets in South Dakota, winning his first race at a recognized track with her at now-defunct Park Jefferson. Aided by purse earnings from My Assets, he spent $2,000 on a horse named Kosmic Tour, who won the South Dakota Futurity at Park Jefferson before Mott was out of high school. • Worked for three years under Hall of Fame trainer Jack Van Berg, going out on his own in the fall of 1978. • In 1998, at the age of 45, Mott became the youngest trainer ever inducted into the National Museum of Racing and Hall of Fame in Saratoga Springs, N.Y., an honor previously held by Allen Jerkens. • Became the ninth trainer in North American Thoroughbred history to reach 4,000 wins with Mystic at Saratoga Race Course on Aug. 7,

2010. • When Victory Gallop won the 1998 Belmont Stakes, Mott saddled the horse for trainer Elliott Walden, who was sidelined with a leg injury. Walden is now the racing manager for WinStar Farm, which owns Drosselmeyer. • Was voted back-to-back Eclipse Awards as top trainer in 1995 and 1996, and was the recipient of the New York Turf Writers Association Outstanding Trainer Award in 1995, 1995 and 2000. Along with Cigar, late owner Allen Paulson and jockey Jerry Bailey, won the Turf Publicists of America Big Sport of Turfdom Award in 1996. • Will always be best remembered for his training of Cigar, winner of a record-tying 16 consecutive races in 1995-96. The streak included victories in the 1995 Breeders’ Cup Classic and the inaugural Dubai World Cup, and ended with the Arlington-Citation Challenge. Said Mott of Cigar, “He’s the best horse I’ve ever trained. He may be the best

horse anyone has ever trained.” • Cigar’s streak ended in the Grade 1 Pacific Classic, and he closed his racing career running third in the 1996 Breeders’ Cup Classic. Until passed by Curlin in 1998, Cigar retired as the highest money-earner of all-time with purses of $9,999,815. After a public retirement ceremony at Madison Square Garden in New York, Cigar was to join the stallion band at Ashford in Versailles, Ky., but due to infertility, is living out his days as a star attraction at the Kentucky Horse Park. • Mott has won nine training titles at Saratoga, 10 titles at Belmont Park, nine at Gulfstream Park and five at Keeneland. .He is the all-time winningest trainer at Churchill Downs, and set the record for number of victories at a single Churchill Downs meeting, 54, during the 1984 spring meet. • Currently has a stable of approximately 100 horses, based primarily in New York and Kentucky.
