Klaravich Stables

Klaravich Stable and Chad Brown might be the only ones in New York having a better afternoon than Coolmore America's young stallion Tiz the Law. 3-year-old filly Fully Subscribed (Tiz the Law) became the fourth winner on the Saturday card at Aqueduct for the owner/trainer combo, capturing the GII Mother Goose Stakes. Her win came just 60 minutes after another 3-year-old, Tiz Dashing (Tiz the Law) took down the GII Hill Prince Stakes in upset fashion on the grass for Sackatoga Stable. A classy debut winner going seven furlongs on...

7th-Belmont The Big A, $85,000, Msw, 9-28, 2yo, f, 1m, 1:37.28, ft, nose. BELIEVABLE (f, 2, Curlin--Temptress, by Tapit), an $800,000 Fasig-Tipton Saratoga Yearling sale grad, may not have made the front in her debut race as an 8-1 shot here, but she certainly remedied that by the time the field exited the chute and hit the main track. The 2-year-old held sway up the backstretch and around the far turn, but entering the lane she was challenged by a bid to the outside from Concurrently (Amercian Pharoah). Duking it...

B-Tony Dardis, Dell Ridge Farm, Ken Donworth and Desmond Ryan (Ky). T-Chad Brown. J-Flavien Prat. Deep Learning's debut generated the highest Beyer so far this year among 2-year-old turf fillies, and stacks up well with some of Brown's past stars. Five of his six GI Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf winners also launched their careers in Saratoga 1 1/16-mile turf maiden races--and her 84 Beyer...

Klaravich Stables' Deep Learning (Cairo Prince) sat a midfield trip while saving all the ground in Friday's third race from Saratoga, hugged the fence into the lane, and when she was popped the question by Flavien Prat with better than a furlong to go, she left her rivals in the dust, careering away to graduate by a good three lengths to achieve 'TDN Rising Star' status. Sent off favored at 2.35-1, the $27,000 Keeneland September buyback who blossomed into a $325,000 OBS April breezer (see below) was content to gain...

He nearly ran out of time but Klaravich Stable runner Capital Partner (GB) (Kingman {GB}) put in a furious rally down the middle of the Saratoga turf course Saturday to become a new 'TDN Rising Star'. The debuting colt, purchased for 360,000gns out of the Tattersalls October Yearling Sale Book 1 last season, left himself with plenty of work to do early after getting squeezed back in a tight spot on the run into the first turn. Racing at the back of the second flight under Flavien Prat, the 9-5...

2nd-SA, 60K, Msw, 2yo, f, 5f, 4:33 p.m. Baoma Corp went to $900,000 to acquire HIMIKA (Curlin) just two months ago at OBS April after the filly worked in a co-fastest :9.4. Bred by Klaravich Stables, she is the first foal out of stakes-placed Motivated Seller (Into Mischief), who set a new track record at Saratoga in 2021 going 5 1/2 furlongs in 1:02.48. Himika signaled her readiness with a near-bullet four-furlong work June 7 in :46 4/5 (2/74). TJCIS PPS 2nd-CD, 120K, Msw, 2yo, 5 1/2f, 5:29 p.m. First-crop...

A 2024 Eclipse Award finalist in the Female Sprinter category, Ways and Means (Practical Joke) chaired the GII Bed o' Roses Stakes session like a seasoned pro at the Spa on Friday afternoon. Named a 'TDN Rising Star' after debuting a winner by an eye-catching 12 3/4 lengths as a juvenile upstate that August, the filly last season turned in a sparkling performance when she netted the GI Test Stakes over the local course Aug. 3, and followed that up with a score in the GII Gallant Bloom Stakes at...

4th-Monmouth, $51,275, Msw, 6-1, 3yo/up, 6f, 1:11.05, ft, 9 1/2 lengths. SINGLEMINDED (c, 3, Win Win Win--Eva London {SP}, by Adios Charlie) debuted Apr. 5 at Gulfstream Park in a mile turf maiden, and never left midpack for most of the race, finishing sixth in what became a blanket scramble on the wire. Moved to the main track and given blinkers for this second jump, the betting public made him the 6-5 second choice behind Bob Mo (Uncle Mo), who stepped forward to set the tempo as the 4-5 favorite....
