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.

The $650,000 topper from this year's OBS April Sale, Executiveprivilege was the easiest kind of winner in her June 28 debut over the Hollywood Cushion Track and made it look equally academic when adding the July 14 Landaluce S. by 3 1/4 lengths. Sent off the prohibitive 2-5 chalk for the GIII Sorrento S. at this track Aug. 8, the attractive bay filly was three wide for most of the trip, but drove to the front approaching the final furlong and held sway by 1 1/4 lengths. Drawn one from the outside in stall eight, Executiveprivilege was smooth into stride, but drifted back into midfield, further than she has been in any of her previous appearances. Meanwhile, Beholder was able to clear the field from the widest gate and set a good pace up front and was still going great guns as they raced around the turn. Executiveprivilege was now beginning her advance, but was still trapped out wide and seemed to want to drift to her right in upper stretch. That nearly proved her undoing, but she kept her mind on business and was just able to tag a luckless Beholder at the wire.
