Mercer again experimented with waiting tactics and turned into the straight in fifth place behind Radeztky, Jellaby, Fair Season and Swiss Maid. He produced a strong finishing run to take the lead a furlong out and won by three-quarters of a length from Jellaby, with Foveros and Lightning Label close behind in third and fourth.
My Tent Or Yours was restrained by McCoy in the early stages and survived a mistake at the fifth hurdle before moving up into second place behind The New One before the second last. The two leading contenders drew away from the other runners in the straight with My Tent Or Yours gaining the advantage in the last 100 yards to win by half a length after what Daily Telegraph described as "the best hurdle race run in England or Ireland this season". My Tent Or Yours prepared for the 2014 Champion Hurdle with a run in a two-mile flat race on the Polytrack surface at Kempton on 19 February.
La Farina led from the start and when Sardanapale up to challenge 800 metres out, the two colts drew away from the rest of the field. After a prolonged struggle, Sardanapale got the better of La Farina 100 metres from the finish and won by a neck, with a gap of four lengths back to Durbar in third place. In July, La Farina contested the Prix du Président de la République over 2500 metres at Maisons-Laffitte Racecourse but failed to reproduce his earlier form and finished unplaced behind Sardanapale. Shortly afterwards, the outbreak of the War led to the suspension of horse racing in France.
He was opposed by eleven opponents including Durbar, who had beaten Le Grand Pressigny in the Prix Noailles before winning the 1914 Epsom Derby for France. Ridden by George Stern, he won by two lengths from Diderot, with Le Corsaire third and Durbar fourth. On 28 June, Sardanapale faced a rematch with La Farina in the Grand Prix de Paris over 3000 metres at Longchamp Racecourse and started the 1.95/1 favourite in a twelve-runner field. La Farina led from the start and when George Stern moved Sardanapale up to challenge 800 metres out, the two colts drew away from the rest of the field.
Less than two weeks later, the filly started 5/2 joint-favourite for the Group Two Ribbledale Stakes at Royal Ascot. Ridden by Willie Carson, she led for most of the race and drew away from her opponents in the straight to win by five length from North Forland. Bireme was injured in June, and Shoot A Line took her stable companion's place in the Irish Oaks at the Curragh Racecourse in July. Carson sent the filly into the lead from the start and she turned back the challenges of the Irish fillies Little Bonny and Racquette in the straight to win by two and a half lengths.
After a three-month break, Fascinating Rock returned for the Winter Hill Stakes at Windsor Racecourse in England on 29 August. He started the 6/5 favourite but finished fifth of the eight runners behind the Godolphin three-year-old Racing History. In the Enterprise Stakes over one and a half miles at Leopardstown on 12 September the colt started second favourite behind Answered in a field which also included the one time Derby favourite John F Kennedy. After racing in third place, he took the lead in the last quarter mile and drew away from his rivals to win by six lengths from the gelding Panama Hat.
Ridden by the champion jockey A. P. McCoy, he took the lead after the final hurdle and drew away from his twelve opponents to win by seven lengths. Four weeks later he finished second when favourite at the same course but then won minor novice events at Sedgefield Racecourse in September (wearing blinkers for the first time) and November. In the early part of 2002, Intersky Falcon, though still technically a novice, began to compete against more experienced rivals in handicap races. At Doncaster Racecourse in February he carried 152 pounds in a seven-runner handicap in which he was ridden by Liam Cooper and started at odds of 7/2.
In both of her races as a two-year-old Teppal was ridden by Jamie Spencer. She made her racecourse debut when she started at odds of 11/4 for a maiden race over seven furlongs at Lingfield Park on 30 August and won "cleverly" by a neck from Awesometank after taking the lead in the closing stages. On 25 September the filly started the 11/10 favourite for a minor race over the same distance on the synthetic polytrack surface at Kempton Park Racecourse. After tracking the leaders she went to the front approaching the final furlong and drew away from her twelve opponents to win by four lengths.
Mount Nelson did not compete in a race until late autumn, but then ran three times in a little over three weeks. On 6 October he started at odds of 5/2 in a seven furlong maiden race at Gowran Park, County Kilkenny and finished second of the fourteen runners behind the Dermot Weld-trained Treasure Map. In a similar event at the Curragh Racecourse sixteen days later, the colt started 2/1 favourite against twenty-eight opponents. Ridden by Seamie Heffernan, Mount Nelson established a clear lead approaching the final quarter mile and drew away from the field in the closing stages to win impressively by six lengths.
The other runners included Musetta, Asterita (Lingfield Oaks Trial) and Russian Snows (runner up in the Pretty Polly Stakes). Pure Grain was always towards the front of the ten runner field and turned into the straight in third place behind Musetta and Larrocha. She took the lead approaching the last quarter mile and drew away from her rivals in the closing stages to win by six lengths from Russian Snows, with a further four lengths back to Valley of Gold in third. When Robert Barnett was asked by journalists about his plans for the filly he said "I pick the trainers, they pick the races".
On his first racecourse appearance, Highland Reel contested a seven furlong maiden race at Leopardstown Racecourse on 12 June and finished strongly to take second place, beaten three quarters of a length by the Dermot Weld-trained Tombelaine. Nineteen days later the colt started 8/15 favourite in a one-mile maiden at Gowran Park. Ridden by his trainer's son Joseph O'Brien he took the lead two furlongs out and drew away from his opponents to win "easily" by twelve lengths from Taqaseem. On 30 July Highland Reel was stepped up in class when he was sent to England for the Group Three Vintage Stakes over seven furlongs at Goodwood Racecourse.
On his first appearance of 2001, Kyllachy contested minor handicap over five furlongs at Sandown in April. Ridden by Kieren Fallon, he was held up at the rear of the fourteen runner field and struggled to obtain a clear run in the last quarter mile. When Fallon switched to the right in the closing stages, Kyllachy accelerated into the lead and drew away from the field to win "easily" by five lengths. After a break of three months, the colt was moved up in class and sent to France for the Listed Prix du Cercle at Deauville Racecourse on 2 August and finished second to the French-trained Do The Honours.
Starting at odds of 3.5/1, she took the lead on the final turn and drew away from her rivals in the straight to win by seven lengths. On September 30 Caressing was moved up in class and distance for the Arlington-Washington Lassie Stakes over one mile at Arlington Park. She tracked the wire-to-wire winner Thunder Bertie throughout the race without ever looking likely to win and finished second, beaten two and three quarter lengths. John Velazquez took over the ride from the injured Kuntzweiler when Caressing contested the seventeenth edition of the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies, run that year at Churchill Downs on November 4.
Rather than making his debut in a maiden race, Pedro the Great began his track career in the Listed Rochestown Stakes over six furlongs at Naas Racecourse on 4 June. Ridden by his trainer's son Joseph, he started at odds of 8/1 and finished fifth of the six runners behind Dawn Approach. On 21 June he was dropped back in class and started favourite for a maiden at Leopardstown in which he was partnered by Seamie Heffernan. He led from the start and drew away from his five opponents in the final furlong to win by four and a quarter lengths from the Jim Bolger-trained Wexford Opera.
Gallic League took the lead from the start and set a very fast pace despite a strong headwind. He drew away from his rivals in the last quarter mile and won by two and a half lengths from Tommy Daly with J Cheever Loophole in third ahead of Classic Ruler. Gallic League was then stepped up in class and distance for the Group One Middle Park Stakes over six furlongs at Newmarket Racecourse on 3 October. With Cauthen again in the saddle he was made the 6/4 favourite ahead of Rahy, Persian Heights, Digamist (winner of the Phoenix Stakes) and the 50/1 outsider Golden Garter.
The colt was held up by Asmussen as usual before turning into the straight in fourth place and then taking the lead 150 metres from the finish as Miesque also produced her challenge. Soviet Star and Miesque drew away from their opponents to fight out the finish with the colt prevailing by a head. The other runners finished strung out with gaps of four, five and eight lengths back to Gabina, Blushing John and Bluebook. On his final racecourse appearance, Soviet Star started 9/4 joint favourite for the Queen Elizabeth II Stakes at Ascot in October, but never looked likely to win and finished fourth, beaten eight lengths by Warning.
Many of Fassbinder's films deal with homosexuality, in keeping with his interest in characters who are social outsiders, but he drew away from most representations of homosexuals in films. In an interview at the 1975 Cannes Film Festival, Fassbinder said about Fox and His Friends: "It is certainly the first film in which the characters are homosexuals, without homosexuality being made into a problem. In films, plays or novels, if homosexuals appear, the homosexuality was the problem, or it was a comic turn. But here homosexuality is shown as completely normal, and the problem is something quite different, it's a love story, where one person exploits the love of the other person, and that's the story I always tell".
In July he was sent to Germany and finished second to Orofino in the Grosser Preis von Berlin, after which Carson offered the opinion that the 2,400m distance was too short for the colt to show his best form. At Newmarket in October, Little Wolf was moved up in distance for the Jockey Club Cup over two miles. Ridden by Carson he carried top weight in the Group Three race and started 9/4 favourite. He appeared to be struggling at one point but moved through to take the lead three furlong from the finish and drew away from the field to win by six lengths from Halsbury, with the Irish horse Ore three lengths away in third place.
Robinson settled his mount behind the leaders as Leipzig set a strong pace, and then moved up into second place behind Pebbles with two furlongs left to run. The two Guineas winners quickly drew away from the field with Katies proving the stronger, taking the lead inside the finsl furlong and winning by a length. There was a gap of five and a half lengths back to So Fine who took third place ahead of Desirable. Katies started odds-on favourite for the Child Stakes at Newmarket Racecourse in July but was beaten into second place by the 1000 Guineas runner-up Meis-El-Reem, to whom she was conceding six pounds in weight.
In the National Breeders' Produce Stakes at Sandown Park in July Chelandry, who started the 9/4 joint-favourite, led from the start and won "with ridiculous ease" by two lengths from Ardeshir with the unnamed "Braw Lass colt" in third. On 9 October Chelandry ended her season in the £3,000 Imperial Produce Stakes over six furlongs at Kempton Park. Starting the 4/7 favourite she drew away from her opponents in the final furlong and won "unchallenged" by three lengths from Cortegar, with Redress a head away in third. At the end of the season, Chelandry was rated the best juvenile filly in England, albeit eight pounds inferior to the top colt Galtee More.
In August, The Fugue ran against all-female competition for the first time in 2013 when she started the 2/1 favourite for the Yorkshire Oaks. Buick sent her into the lead approaching the final furlong, and she drew away from the field to win by four lengths from the Irish-trained Venus de Milo. Gosden expressed his satisfaction with the filly's recovery and nominated the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe and Breeders' Cup as future targets. On 7 September, The Fugue was sent to Ireland to contest the Irish Champion Stakes at Leopardstown Racecourse and started at odds of 4/1 in a field which included Al Kazeem, Trading Leather and Kingsbarns.
Leo was constrained to conclude the Liturgy and determined on ending those roaring witcheries he drew away from the altar and forced his way through the parishioners to face that "demonic jester". Deranged by sorrow, he drew the conclusion that all his mild approaches and patient argumentations would have not been efficient any more. So, he decided to dare that impious enchanter to show publicly and prove baldly he who professed the rightest creed. After ordering to heap up wood for a pyre in a furnace inside the close Achillean Thermal Baths, Leo suddenly enwrapped his Omophorion round the abashed miscreant dragging him towards the chosen place where the balefire was already crackling.
Starting second favourite behind the English-trained Inshallah, she raced at the rear of the nine-runner field before moving up to take the lead a furlong from the finish. In the closing stages she drew away from her opponents to win by six lengths and half a length from Real Snug and Coalminer. In October Kilijaro was sent back to England for a rematch with Devon Ditty in the Cheveley Park Stakes in which she was moved up to six furlongs for the first time. She moved up to challenge Devon Ditty approaching the final furlong but after a prolonged struggle she was beat a neck by the 11/8 favourite.
He gained the advantage in the closing stages and won by a neck from Armiger, with Dernieur Empereur taking third place. On 6 June, Hernando started 2/1 favourite for the 156th running of the Prix du Jockey Club over 2400 metres at Chantilly Racecourse. Fort Wood and Dernieur Empereur were again in opposition, whilst the other contenders included Hunting Hawk (winner of the Prix Greffulhe), Regency (Prix Hocquart), Sin Kiang (Prix La Force) and the Criquette Head-trained Freezing Bird. Hernando drew away from his rivals in the closing stages to win by two and a half lengths from Dernieur Empereur, with Hunting Hawk taking third ahead of the British challenger Newton's Law.
In the Grade I Ashland Stakes at Keeneland Race Course on April 7, Monomoy Girl started as odds-on favorite against six opponents and never looked in any danger of defeat. She took the lead from the start and drew away from the field in the last quarter mile to come home five and a half lengths clear of Eskimo Kisses. In the Kentucky Oaks on 4 May Monomoy Girl started second favorite behind the Santa Anita Oaks winner Midnight Bisou. Eskimo Kisses and Wonder Gadot were again in opposition while the best fancied of the other ten runners were Coach Rocks (Gulfstream Park Oaks), My Miss Lily (Gazelle Stakes) and Rayya (UAE Oaks).
Le Marmot began his three-year-old season in the Prix Greffulhe over 2100 m at Longchamp. Starting at odds of 3.9/1, he took the lead in the straight and drew away from his opponents to win by four lengths and one length from Wolverton and Soleil Noir. On 6 May at the same course, Le Marmot started 14/10 favourite for the Prix Hocquart over 2400 m in which he was opposed by High Sierra and Son of Love, who had finished first and second in the Prix Noailles. The colt raced just behind the leaders before accelerating clear of the field in the straight and winning by three lengths from High Sierra.
For the first time she did not start favourite, going off the 9/4 second choice in the betting behind the French Champion Hurdle winner Benie de Dieux. The other seven runners included Roksana and Stormy Ireland who had finished first and second in the race in 2019. Honeysuckle was in contention from the start as Stormy Ireland set the pace, and moved up on the inside to take the lead on the final turn only to be challenged by Benie des Dieux. The two favourites drew away from their rivals with Honeysuckle staying on well to win by half a length with a gap of six and a half lengths back to Elfile in third.
Heffernan settled the favourite in third place as his stablemate Mikhail Fokhine set the pace from another Ballydoyle outsider New Zealand. Septimus moved up alongside the pacemakers entering the straight, went to the front, and drew away from the field to win "very easily" by thirteen lengths. His win made Aidan O'Brien (who was at the Doncaster St Leger meeting on the day) the first trainer in 73 years to win all five of the Irish Classic Races. O'Brien's wife Anne-Marie addressed the press after the race and said "I’m so happy for everyone associated with Ballydoyle, and we’ve been so lucky that the horses have stayed sound. Septimus got his opportunity today and I’m really thrilled".
The two colts quickly drew away from the rest of the field, with the favourite prevailing by one and a half lengths and Chief Singer finishing four lengths clear of Lear Fan in third. In June, a year after his last win, Chief Singer returned to Royal Ascot for the St James's Palace Stakes (then a Group Two race) over one mile. Starting the 85/40 favourite, Chief Singer again started slowly but moved up to fourth place entering the straight. Cochrane sent him into the lead two furlongs out and the colt accelerated clear of the field to win by eight lengths from Keen and Kalim in a track record time of 1:38.90.
McCoy sent the favourite into the lead at the second last flight of hurdles and Call Equiname prevailed in a closely contested finish, winning by a neck and a short head from Speedwell Prince and Strong Promise. On 23 February 1996 Call Equiname started 4/7 favourite for a novices' handicap at Kempton Park Racecourse. Carrying top weight of 162 pounds he took the lead at the fourth hurdle and drew away from his rivals to win by twenty lengths from Peace Lord. In March, Call Equiname ran for the first time at the Cheltenham Festival when he contested the Supreme Novices' Hurdle and started 10/1 fourth choice in the betting behind Castle Sweep, Kimanicky and Dance Beat.
Gang Forward made his first appearance of 1873 in the 2000 Guineas at Newmarket on 30 April and started at odds of 8/1 against nine opponents, with Kaiser being made 15/8 favourite. The race attracted an extremely large crowd and there was a delay to the start as spectators were cleared from the course. Ridden by Tom Challoner, Gang Forward was among the front-runners from the start and two furlongs from the finish he was moved forward to dispute the lead with Kaiser. The two colts drew away from the rest of the field and after a "good race" Gang Forward prevailed by a head from the favourite, with Suleiman three lengths back in third place.
She tracked the leaders as Golden Silence set the pace, before moving into the lead approaching the final turn and quickly drew away from her rivals and won "with great ease" by five lengths from Golden Silence, with Sister Anne two lengths back in third. Jelliss eplained that he had briefly shown the winner whip as at the filly appeared to think that the race was over and wanted to stop. Her winning time of 2:35.8 was 0.6 seconds faster than that recorded by Trigo in winning the Epsom Derby over the same course and distance. The filly was then dropped back in distance for the Coronation Stakes over one mile at Royal Ascot but ran poorly in a race won by Daumont.
Zabeel Prince began his third campaign with a step up in class for the Listed Doncaster Mile Stakes on 24 March in which he was partnered by Atzeni and started 10/11 favourite against five opponents. He led from the start and drew away from the field in the final furlong to win "comfortably" by two and a half lengths from Born To Be Alive. The gelding was moved up to the highest class for the Group 1 Lockinge Stakes at Newbury Racecourse on 19 May but made little impact and came home thirteenth of the fourteen runners behind Rhododendron. Zabeel Prince was off the track with injury until 28 September when he contested the Group 2 Joel Stakes at Newmarket Racecourse.
She took the lead a furlong out and drew away from her four opponents to win "easily" by three and a quarter lengths from Ramarama. Alan Munro took over from Culhane when Music Show was moved up in class for the Group Three Firth of Clyde Stakes at Ayr Racecourse on 19 September. Starting the 5/1 choice in the betting she finished tenth of the thirteen runners behind Distinctive, appearing disadvantaged by a poor draw which saw her racing on the unfavoured stands-side of the course. Despite her defeat at Ayr, Music Show was stepped up again for the Group Two Rockfel Stakes over seven furlongs at Newmarket Racecourse on 17 October when she was ridden by Kieren Fallon.
The pair drew away from the field and were neck and neck at the penultimate hurdle but stalking ominously in behind was Sublimity and as Hardy Eustace and Brave Inca fought, Carberry cantered into the lead at the final hurdle and went away beating Brave Inca into 2nd by 3L. Niggling health problems had plagued Sublimity throughout the 2006/07 season but somehow everything fell right on the day. Next season the struggle with his health and the bad Irish racing ground was lost and he finished winless, although did record a fourth in the Champion Hurdle and would possibly have beaten Punjabi in the Punchestown Champion Hurdle had Barry Geraghty not got first run on the Nicky Henderson-trained stalwart.
Jwala began her racing career by finishing sixth in a maiden race over six furlongs at Great Yarmouth Racecourse on 10 October and then finished second in a similar event on the polytrack surface at Kempton nine days later. On 28 October she was stepped up in class for the Listed Bosra Sham Fillies' Stakes at Newmarket Racecourse and finished eighth of the fourteen runners behind Artistic Jewel. She finished third in a maiden at Kempton in November and was dropped back in distance for a five furlong maiden at Wolverhampton Racecourse on 12 December. Ridden by Shane Kelly, she led from the start and drew away from her rivals in the straight to win by two and three quarter lengths from Pale Orchid.
On February 1, 1904, the auxiliary cruiser USS Yankee was on patrol off Santo Domingo, observing the fighting between government and rebel troops loyal to Carlos F. Morales and General Juan Isidro Jiminez. The American captain decided to put some men in a launch and send them ashore to make contact with the Dominicans, but when it drew away from Yankee the insurgents attacked it with small arms fire and Seaman J. C. Johnston was mortally wounded. In response, President Theodore Roosevelt ordered the protected cruisers USS Columbia and USS Newark to proceed to the islands and exact an apology. The temporary commander of the Brazil Squadron, Captain Richard Wainwright, was placed in charge of the operation on board the Newark.
After being unraced as a juvenile Mabs Cross began her racing career by running unplaced in a six furlong maiden race at Pontefract Racecourse on 11 April 2017. Nineteen days later in a similar event at Thirsk Racecourse she produced a better effort as she finished a close third in a ten-runner field. For her other races that year she ran over the minimum distance of five furlongs and was partnered on each occasion by Paul Mulrennan. On 23 May on the Tapeta surface at Newcastle Racecourse she started at odds of 3/1 for a maiden and recorded her first success as she drew away from her rivals in the final furlong to win by almost four lengths.
Racing on soft ground he was made the 4/7 favourite ahead of Ramian (third in the Irish Derby) and Good Thyne whilst the other five runners were Capitano, Sheringham, Prancing Prince, El Cito and Sir Mordred. After tracking the leaders in the early stages Gonzales went to the front half a mile from the finish and drew away from his rivals in the straight to win easily by five lengths from Good Thyne with another three lengths back to El Cito in third place. At the end of the year, the independent Timeform organization gave Gonzales a rating of 120, fifteen pounds inferior to their best stayer Le Moss and seventeen pounds behind their Horse of the Year Moorestyle.
Godetia made her racecourse debut in the Gilltown Stud Stakes, a maiden race over seven furlongs at the Curragh Racecourse in September. Her connections appeared to have little confidence in her chances, as she started a 20/1 outsider and was ridden by Vincent Rossiter, one of the stable's lesser-known jockeys. She challenged for the lead in the final quarter mile and finished second of the eighteen runners behind her stablemate Kalamaika. Ten days later she started 1/2 favourite for a maiden over the same distance at Phoenix Park Racecourse and drew away from her opponents in the last two furlongs to win by twelve lengths from Sister Jinks, a filly who had finished third in the Group Three C. L. Weld Park Stakes.
Sporting Yankee began his racing career in a seven furlong maiden race at Newmarket Racecourse in early October in which he overcame an unfavourable draw to finish second to Sin Timon, a colt who went on to win the Cambridgeshire Handicap in 1977. In the Chesterton Maiden Stakes over the same course and distance two weeks later he drew away from his twenty-six opponents in the last quarter mile to win by four lengths. At the end of October, the colt was moved up sharply in class for the William Hill Futurity over one mile at Doncaster Racecourse. The race had previously been known as the Timeform Gold Cup and the Observer Gold Cup before Sporting Yankee's owner took over the sponsorship in 1976.
The following day, after the 21st fatal breakdown at the track since the meet started on December 26 (Battle Of Midway was the 18th), Santa Anita closed "indefinitely" until the cause of the fatalities could be discovered and fixed. On March 17, it was announced that live racing would resume at Santa Anita on March 29, and the Santa Anita Handicap was rescheduled for April 6. McKinzie, drawing the rail for the Santa Anita Handicap and again carrying more weight than the rest of the field, stalked the pace set by Gift Box and Prime Attraction. He approached Gift Box at the top of the stretch and the two slowly drew away from the rest of the field, hitting the wire in a photo finish.
On 7 October 2002 at Pontefract Racecourse, Zee Zee Top made her track debut in a maiden race over one mile on firm ground and started the 4/6 favourite in a six-runner field. Ridden by Kieren Fallon she took the lead approaching the final furlong and quickly drew away from her opponents to win by seven lengths. Fallon was again in the saddle ten days later when the filly was stepped up in class for the Listed Severals Stakes on softer ground at Newmarket Racecourse and was matched against older fillies and mares. Starting at 12/1 she was restrained in the early stages before making steady progress to take second place, two lengths behind the four-year-old Salim Toto.
On her racecourse debut, Melchbourne made little impression, finishing unplaced in a maiden race at Newmarket Racecourse but then won four consecutive races against modest opposition. She recorded her first victory with a three length win in the five furlong Little John Maiden Stakes at Nottingham Racecourse and followed up by easily defeating twenty-three opponents in the Quickly Plate at Windsor. She won the Palgrave Plate at Yarmouth Racecourse by seven lengths and was then moved up in distance for the July Fillies Stakes over six furlongs at Haydock Park Racecourse. She drew away from her rivals in the last quarter mile to win "in a hack canter" by an officially recorded margin of five lengths, although Timeform reported that she won by ten.
Racing on firmer ground than he had previously encountered, Cyborgo led until he was overtaken by Seekin Cash at the eighth but regained the advantage when his rival made a bad mistake at the next. At the second last, he was passed by Mysilv but remained in touch as the two drew away from the other contenders. On the run-in Cyborgo rallied strongly under a "frantic" ride from Bridgwater to retake the lead from the mare and won by three quarters of a length, with a gap of ten lengths to the 33/1 What A Question in third. After the race Pipe said that he had been very confident about the Cyborgo's fitness, despite the gelding's lengths absence.
Thirteen days later, over the same course and distance, Wind and Wuthering was one of nine colt to contest the Group One Dewhurst Stakes, Britain's most prestigious race for two-year-olds. He started at odds of 11/1 with the untested, but highly regarded Simply Great, from the Henry Cecil stable being made the 6/4 favourite ahead of the Vincent O'Brien-trained Raconteur and the Richmond Stakes winner Tender King. As in the Somerville Tattersall Stakes, Waldron sent Wind and Wuthering into the lead from the start, and steadily increased the pace, leaving many of his rivals struggling at half-distance. In the final quarter mile he drew away from the field and won easily by seven lengths from Be My Native and Tender King.
Star Catcher was ridden in all of her races as a three-year-old by Frankie Dettori. On her seasonal debut, she started 10/11 favourite for a maiden over ten furlongs on soft ground at Newbury Racecourse on 12 April and recorded her first success as she drew away from her ten opponents in the closing stages to win by four and a half lengths. After the race Dettori told Gosden "don't go for the Oaks, go to the Ribblesdale, she's not got the strength for the Oaks yet". On 18 May, over the same course and distance, the filly was stepped up in class for Listed Fillies' Trial Stakes in which she led until being overtaken in the final furlong and finished a close third behind Queen Power and Lavender's Blue.
On her first appearance as a three-year-old, Arabian Queen started at odds of 9/1 for the Group Three Princess Elizabeth Stakes over eight and a half furlongs at Epsom Downs Racecourse on 5 June. Ridden by de Sousa, she led from the start, drew away from her opponents in the last quarter mile and won by four lengths from Crowley's Law with the favoured Odeliz in third. The filly was moved up to Group One level for her next start, the Coronation Stakes over one mile at Royal Ascot in which she led until the final furlong before being overtaken and finishing fifth behind the French-trained Ervedya. In the Falmouth Stakes at Newmarket in July she was matched against older fillies for the first time.
Chief Contender did not race as a two-year-old and began his racing career by finishing ninth in a maiden race over one and a half miles at Newmarket Racecourse on 16 April 1996. On his next appearance on 5 May the colt ran in a maiden over the same distance at Salisbury Racecourse in which he was ridden by the apprentice jockey Robert Havlin and started at odds of 10/1 in a ten-runner field. He took the lead from the start and recorded his first success as he drew away from his opponents in the final furlong came home nine lengths clear of Wilawander. Havlin was again in the saddle when Chief Contender started 5/6 favourite for a minor race over the same course and distance.
Mathew Dawson, Minting's trainer In early 1886 the betting for the Classics was dominated by Minting and the also undefeated Ormonde, In March Minting was 2/1 favourite for the 2000 Guineas with Ormonde on 5/2, while the colts were 11/2 joint favourites for the Derby. On 28 April Minting started the 11/10 the 2000 Guineas at Newmarket. The race was run at an exceptionally strong pace and Minting, ridden by John Watts, tracked the leaders in the early stages before moving up to dispute the lead with Ormonde just after half way. Minting went a neck in front as the two colts drew away from the rest of the field, but Ormonde’s superiority became evident as he pulled away in the closing stages to win by two lengths.
The flat racing season in Britain and Ireland was disrupted by the COVID-19 outbreak and Mohaather did not make his reappearance until 16 June when he contested the Queen Anne Stakes which was run behind closed doors at Royal Ascot. He finished seventh behind Circus Maximus staying on well in the closing stages after being unable to obtain a clear run in the last quarter mile. On 11 July, over the same course and distance, the colt started the 2/1 favourite for the Group 2 Summer Mile Stakes in which he was ridden by Dane O'Neill. After racing in mid-division he took the lead approaching the final furlong and drew away from his opponents to win in "impressive" style by three and three quarter lengths from San Donato.
Lyric of Light made her third and final appearance of the season in the Group One Fillies' Mile on good to firm ground at Newmarket on 23 September. With Dettori again in the saddle she was made the 2/1 favourite with Fallen For You and the Roger Varian-trained Firdaws joint-second choices on 3/1 and Samitar being the best-fancied of the other five runners. Samitar went to the front from the tart with Lyric of Light, as at Doncaster, being held up at the back of the field before beginning to make ground just after half way. The favourite moved alongside Samitar a furlong out and the pair drew away from the opposition, with Lyric of Light gaining the advantage in the final strides to win by a head.
With Murphy in the saddle, Benbatl took the lead soon after the start and drew away from his rivals in the straight to win by two and three quarter lengths from Stormy Antarctic. Saeed bin Suroor said "He made all and the pace suited him as he was still on the bridle with two furlongs to go. I'm very pleased with him and we'll now look at our options", suggesting that the colt might be sent to Australia to take on the great mare Winx in the Cox Plate. On his third and final European start of 2018, Benbatl was ridden by Jim Crowley when he was sent off at odds of 10/1 for the International Stakes over ten and a half furlongs at York Racecourse on 22 August.
Ali-Royal ran nine times as a three-year-old in 1996, starting with a third place behind Ramooz and Bahamian Knight in the Classic Trial at Thirsk Racecourse on 20 April.

On Boxing Day, Intersky Falcon faced the reigning Champion Hurdler Hors La Loi III in the Grade I Christmas Hurdle at Kempton Park Racecourse, which also attracted Marble Arch and the dual Grade I-winning Irish challenger Davenport Milenium. Ridden by Charlie Swan, he took the lead at the third hurdle and opened up a six length advantage over his opponents before appearing to tire two hurdles from the finish.
On the Newmarket training gallops Salse showed considerable promise but also appeared to be somewhat headstrong and hard to handle: he was therefore accompanied to the start by his trainer's assistant in his early races. The colt made his racecourse debut in a maiden race over six furlongs at Yarmouth in August and won by two and a half lengths from Persian Heights. In the Sancton Stakes over seven furlongs at York Racecourse in September Salse recorded an impressive victory as he drew away from his opponents in the closing stages and came home six lengths clear of Strike Force.

Almodóvar's growing success caught the attention of emerging Spanish film producer Andrés Vicente Gómez, who wanted to join forces to make his next film Matador (1986). The film centres on the relationship between a former bullfighter and a murderous female lawyer, who both find sexual fulfillment through acts of murder. Written together with Spanish novelist Jesús Ferrero, Matador drew away from the naturalism and humour of the director's previous work into a deeper and darker terrain. Almodóvar cast several of his regulars actors in key roles: Antonio Banderas was hired for the role of Ángel, a bullfighting student who, after an attempted rape incident, falsely confesses to a series of murders that he did not commit; Julieta Serrano appears as Ángel's very religious mother; while Carmen Maura, Chus Lampreave, Verónica Forqué and Eusebio Poncela also appear in minor roles.
Liam's Map led from the start, drew away from his rivals in the straight and won easily by four and three quarter lengths from Coach Inge with Wicked Strong in third. Pletcher commented "I'm just happy to see him get that Grade I that he deserves so much... he has that style where he can get into a cruising speed and just keep carrying it... He just gets into that rhythm and he just runs horses off their feet". At the Breeders' Cup meeting at Keeneland, Liam's Map's connections opted to miss a clash with American Pharoah in the Classic and instead contest the Breeders' Cup Dirt Mile on 30 October. Shortly before the race it was announced that an interest in the horse had been bought by Lane's End and that Liam's Map would be retired to the Versailles, Kentucky-based stud for the 2016 season.
At the start, Prost took the lead after Senna suffered wheel spin, but on the first lap Senna with greater downforce was noticeably faster through Eau Rouge. Despite running with more wing than his teammate, Senna was able to then slipstream Prost up the Kemmel Straight and easily out braked him into Les Combes. From there Senna steadily drew away from his teammate who was unhappy with the balance of his car after his last minute setting change, going on to take an easy 30 second win. Third and fourth was filled by the two Benettons, however they were both disqualified from the resultsGrand Prix Results: Belgian GP, 1988 Retrieved from www.grandprix.com on 2 December 2009 long after the race had ended for using illegal fuel (in fact, the DQ was not known until after the season had ended meaning most publications showed the Benettons as finishing 3rd and 4th).
At 3, Swale won the Hutcheson Stakes at Gulfstream Park by seven lengths first out. After displacing his palate in the Fountain of Youth Stakes, where he finished third, he won the Florida Derby with new rider Laffit Pincay, Jr., running the mile and one-eighth in 1:47 3/5 as he drew away from favored Dr. Carter at the end.

His first two pictures show some influence of Peter Monamy, but he was already displaying strong signs of a distinctive personal manner. He soon drew away from the native traditions of the marine genre, which included formal ship portraiture, although there are at least two works signed by him, one now in the Maritime Museum at Greenwich, which portray a ship in this convention. There is also a group of paintings and prints, signed or inscribed "Monamy" and datable to the years circa 1745-1750, but whose style is more consistent with Brooking’s. Some of the identical prints occur with attributions by different print dealers to both painters in separate issues. Brooking’s accuracy and exceptionally careful attention to detail manifest his intimate knowledge of maritime practice and naval architecture, as well as his remarkably close observation of the ocean conditions of wave and wind. Contemporary accounts suggest that he had been “much at sea” and he certainly owned a small yacht.
On 6 April 1993 White Muzzle began his second campaign in a maiden over 10 furlongs at Pontefract Racecourse and recorded his first success as he came home five lengths clear of his rivals at odds of 8/11. The colt followed up two weeks later as he won a minor event over one and a half miles at Catterick Racecourse by six lengths. The apprentice jockey Stephen Davies took the ride when the colt started odds-on favourite for a similar event at Beverley Racecourse and completed his hat- trick as he won one and a half lengths from the Queen's representative Spring To Action. Twelve days after his win at Beverley White Muzzle was sent to Rome to contest the Group 1 Derby Italiano over 2400 metres at Capannelle Racecourse. He took the lead 500 metres from the finish and drew away from the field to win by five lengths from Needle Gun.
