Horse racing newsletter: Different kind of Stewards’ rulings this week
Hello, my name is John Cherwa and welcome to our horse racing newsletter as Mo Forza puts on an impressive performance in the Del Mar Mile.
This week we’ve got some stewards’ rulings that are a bit different, and a couple that reflect the times we live in. Plus, there is a cold case and a documents fabrication.
But before we get to them, in case you missed it, colleague and friend Bryce Miller of the San Diego Union Tribune had a nice read on Maximum Security’s win in the Pacific Classic. So give it a read, just click here.
And speaking of Maximum Security, he came out of Saturday’s race just fine. In fact, trainer Bob Baffert said the Pacific Classic was not even his best race out of his two Del Mar races.
“The most impressive race was the San Diego [Handicap],” Baffert told Hank Wesch of Del Mar. “He was inside, got stopped, had to overcome trouble and a slow track and still won.”
Baffert said he didn’t know which might be his next race. One possibility is the Jockey Club Gold Cup at Belmont on Oct. 10. Of course, the race he’s really aiming for is the Breeders’ Cup Classic at Keeneland on Nov. 7.

Stewards’ rulings
--Jockey Drayden Van Dyke dropped his appeal of a ruling made on May 22 and will serve his suspension from his riding in the Desert Stormer Stakes at Santa Anita on May 17. Van Dyke, aboard Fighting Mad, was involved in two incidents, one leaving the starting gate which caused an outside horse to clip heels and a second at the top of the stretch, in which he made contact with an outside horse. He was given a five-day suspension at the time, which will now be scheduled for Aug. 14, 15, 16, 21 and 22. During a suspension, a jockey can run in “designated” races, which are basically stakes races. Van Dyke ran in the Rancho Bernardo on Aug. 21 and finished second and ran in two races on Aug. 22, winning the Del Mar Oaks and finishing fifth in the Del Mar Handicap. If you run in more than one “designated” race on any day, the you have to make up that suspension day at a later time.
--Owner Juan Pablo Silva was fined $500 for entering an ineligible horse in a race because the horse had not been on the grounds for 24 hours. It’s a bit confusing. The owner was shipping Into a Hot Spot from Turf Paradise in Arizona to run in the first race on Dec. 14 at Los Alamitos. The horse arrived at 6:40 p.m. on Dec. 13, less than 24 hours before the race. However, the person who brought the horse filled out the arrival/departure” slip as saying the horse was coming from San Luis Rey Downs, which does not require the 24-hour wait period. There was discussion as to who falsified the slip, but it didn’t matter because the complaint did not carry with it an infraction notice for falsifying an arrival/departure slip. But, discovered in hindsight, the horse was not eligible to run and the fine was levied. Into a Hot Spot finished fifth in the maiden claimer.
--Groom Miguel Lopez Fabian was reinstated for an incident that occurred in 2006 at San Luis Rey Downs. Fabian was suspended for failing to appear before the Hollywood Park stewards for a hearing on Nov. 22, 2006 with the suspension issued on Dec. 13, 2006. Fabian was cited by San Luis Rey security for allegedly driving a vehicle while under the influence of alcohol and crashing into a fence. Fabian said he has since “changed his habits” and is working for a feed company delivering feed. He wanted to get his license back and possibly return to the industry. He did sign a testing agreement and will be evaluated by the Winners’ Foundation.
--Jockey Brice Blanc was suspended three days (Aug. 15, 16 and 21) for careless riding aboard Goodtingscominpink in the seventh race at Del Mar on Aug. 7. The ruling said he did not make the proper effort for keep his mount straight in the stretch and interfering with another horse. He was disqualified from second to third. Blanc said his horse was shying from other horses and he was riding to win.
--Jockey Tiago Pereira was suspended three days (Aug. 15, 16 and 21) for careless riding when he was aboard Lavender in the seventh race on Aug. 7. The stewards contended that Pereira failed to make enough effort to keep his mount straight in the stretch and causing interference. Lavender was disqualified from fourth to seventh. Pereira was “adamant” that the horse to his outside drifted in, narrowing the hole he hoped to ride in. The stewards agreed but said there was sufficient time to redirect his horse.
--Apprentice jockey Alexis Centeno was suspended three days (Aug. 15, 16 and 21) for careless riding in the fifth race on Aug. 7 aboard his mount Blackout. The stewards said he allowed his horse to drift inward, causing another horse to check and take back. Blackout finished sixth. Centeno accepted responsibility for the mistake.
--Exercise rider Sophia Barandela was fined $50 for failing to move off the rail after a workout on Aug. 2. It happened at the 7/8ths pole partly because of gate workers at the quarter chute. Barandela accepted responsibility.
--Groom Ryan Glatt was fined $100 for failing to wear a face covering properly. Glatt, who runs the barn for his father Mark, was warned three weeks prior to properly wear his face covering. It was also suggested “he reel in the stable employees for their disrespect and use of demeaning remarks towards the Del Mar Equine Patrol.” Further violations of the mask rule could lead to Glatt being barred from the facility.
--Exercise rider Larry Gary was fined $50 for failure to wear a face mask on Aug. 8 after being previously warned. He admitted to the infraction.
--Jockey Carlos Lopez was fined $100 for having spurs on during morning training on Aug. 7. Lopez said he didn’t know it was a violation and said it wouldn’t happen again.
Los Alamitos update
Jockey Vinnie Bednar was injured in the last quarter-horse race on Saturday night’s card when his mount, Peek It Up, suffered what appeared to be a catastrophic injury. Bednar is “alert and responsive” in a local hospital. The 3-year-old filly was euthanized. For more on this story, just click here.

Del Mar review
After five graded stakes on Saturday, Del Mar was able to muster up one more for Sunday. And, it was a really good win by really good horse. Mo Forza didn’t break especially sharp, ran mid-pack on the rail until the middle of the far turn and then found an inside seam entering the stretch and won the Grade 2 $150,000 Del Mar Mile by a widening 4 ¼ lengths on the turf.
It was a classic push-button performance for the 4-year-old colt who last raced on Jan. 25 when he finished ninth in the Pegasus World Cup Turf Invitational at Gulfstream. Trainer Peter Miller had him tack sharp and jockey Flavien Prat found a hole when there wasn’t one. It was impressive.
Mo Forza paid $4.40, $3.00 and $2.40. Restrainedvengence was second and Royal Ship finished third.
Here’s what the winning connections had to say.
Peter Miller (winning trainer): “That gave me goose pimples. I was just hoping I had him tight enough and ready to perform. These were a good group of horses, but he’s exceptional. To see this horse back in the winner’s circle is really exciting. He had a tendency to get rank in his races last year and wanted to run over horses, so we thought we didn’t want that problem this year so we took the blinkers off. He’s been working without them and I thought that if it doesn’t work out I’m going to look like an idiot, but thank goodness it worked out. We think the Breeders’ Cup will definitely be the end of the year with one race in between.”
Flavien Prat (winning jockey): “Peter [Miller] and I talked before the race and we noted that there looked like a lot of speed in the race. That turned out true. He told me he took his blinkers off and he was hoping for the best. I had a good trip, my horse was relaxed. Then, when I say ‘Go,’ he had a really strong response.”

ACTING OUT set the pace in the two path with FLAT OUT JOY to the outside, pressured from both sides leaving the turn, kicked clear in upper stretch but could not fend off the winner. AS TIME GOES BY off a bit slow to begin, stalked the leader near the fence, bid inside around the turn, lost ground in upper stretch but stayed on willingly for the show. FLAT OUT JOY prompted the pace outside the leader then three wide into the stretch but proved no match in the late stages. ENGLAND'S ROSE off slow from the inside, raced greenly early, trailed three wide to the turn, went around TICO TIME on the turn and moved into the two path and finished with a belated rally. LA V. stalked off the inside, took aim four wide into the lane and weakened in the late stages. TICO TIME went two wide around the turn and was never a factor.

SAPPHIRE SILK dueled for the lead outside a rival, put away that foe at the seven-sixteenths then dueled with TRUE MISCHIEF around the far turn, cut the corner into the stretch, shook free in upper stretch and inched away. INTO VICTORY stalked two wide then moved to the rail, saved ground into the stretch and rallied for the place. TRUE MISCHIEF forwardly placed outside the top pair, moved three deep on the backstretch, bid outside the leader at the three-eighths, dueled around the bend and into the stretch, could not match the winner in the final furlong and was edged for the place. GOTTA BE LUCKY stalked the pace in the two path then three wide around the far turn turn, lacked a bid but held for a minor award. DOLCI went five wide into the first turn, stayed well off the inside on the backstretch, left the far turn four wide and summoned a mild rally. MIDNIGHT JAMBOREE stumbled badly at the start, trailed off the inside early, advanced five wide up the backstretch, came with a mild bid outside the top pair but faltered in the lane. MOUNTAIN PASS stumbled badly, went five wide into the first turn, tracked four wide to the lane and came up empty. CAMEO SHORES hard to manage into the first turn, raced three wide and between foes around that bend, tracked off the rail then two wide into the stretch and never threatened. MIRACLE MILER tucked inside on the first turn, stayed near the inside then angled out into the lane and was always outrun. DADDYTELLSASTORY dueled for the lead from the inside, checked at the three-eighths marker, dropped back on the turn and faded.

JACK SPROUT raced a bit off the rail, split foes past the three-eights, went two to three wide around the final turn, took over at the eighth pole, cleared and held late under right-handed urging. HUGE BIGLY off the rail early then angled in nearing the first turn, moved out on the backstretch, angled five wide around the turn, closed well but could was not enough to get by the winner. SILENT MUSKETIER unhurried in the early stages, traveled outside a rival, went three deep at the three-eighths, swung four wide into the drive, rallied and finished game third. EXETER broke out and bumped rival at the start, tracked off the rail, two wide into the lane, took aim on the top pair in the drive but went evenly in deep stretch. SUMMER FUN showed early speed between rivals then dropped back a bit to stalk the pace, split foes at the five-eights pole, closed in on the leader and gained command at the quarter pole, lost the lead at the furlong marker and weakened late. ULTIMATE MYSTERY settled near the inside then a bit off the rail, between foes at the three-eighths pole, two wide around the final turn, moved to the rail in the stretch and improved position. TEMBO bumped both sides at the start, traveled near the back of the field, steadied past the three-eighths pole, went three wide into the stretch, steadied again in upper stretch and could not regain momentum. PERSEVERANCE tracked off the rail, two to three wide then moved out on the backstretch, raced outside a rival on the second turn and came up empty in the drive. NEWELL contested the pace five deep early then cleared and angled in on the first turn, padded the lead on the backstretch, lost command at the quarter pole and tired. NOTRE DAME vied between foes then chased off the rail, angled to the rail then dropped back on the second turn, eased in the stretch and walked off. MR. CLUTCH sent from the inside, up close early then in a bit tight into the first turn, chased the pace near the inside, was through early then eased through the lane and across the wire and walked off. QUICKER vied four deep then chased off the rail, dropped back leaving the backstretch, eased through the lane and walked off. HAND TIMED.
