Majestic Warrior's Majestic Hussar Takes to Slop in Spa Debut

TDN MAGAZINE, The International Difference: Part III of A Painful Truth: "Welfare in Europe means to train the horse without any chemicals and make him race if he can face the challenge,” says France Galop's Dr. Roland Devolz. “In your country, welfare means to be allowed to use as many drugs as possible to ensure the horse will support training and race." Whose version is right? Part 3 of A Painful Truth examines North America's singular stance on medication. Download part three by clicking here.

+MAJESTIC HUSSAR (c, 2, Majestic Warrior--Distorted Blaze, by Distorted Humor), looking to become the fifth individual winner for his freshman sire (by A.P. Indy), did so with ease as he relished the underfoot conditions here. Overlooked at 7-1 odds breaking widest of all, he stalked the early pace as favored Rugged (Distorted Humor) and Ithastobegone (Yes It's True) argued the pace. Majestic Hussar ranged up four wide under his own resolve and jockey Jose Lezcano just had to point him in the right direction as the pair edged off to an unextended six-length win. Fellow firster Casino Day (Flashy Bull) was second, with Ithastobegone holding for third. The winner is a half brother to Danse Grecque (Hold That Tiger), MGSP-Fr, $168,736; and Joes Blazing Aaron (Graeme Hall), GSW, $146,656.
