The royally bred CINQUANTE CINQ (IRE) (Kingman (GB) x Fifty Five (multiple stakes winner 2017-2019)) sails out of the Maiden Fillies ranks @HSIndyRacing on Wednesday with @A_Achard_11 for @Riley_Mott and owner Peter Brant. Her sire won the 2014 G.1 Irish 2000 Guineas @curraghrace, G.1 St. James’s Palace at Royal @Ascot, G.1 Sussex Stakes @Goodwood_Races and G.1 Jacques Le Marois @fgdeauville to cap off his brilliant three-year-old season before retirement.
CIGAR, winner of the 1995 Jockey Club Gold Cup and one of history's all-time greats, occasionally watched airplanes fly over Belmont Park in the mornings.
Here, 1996 morning partner Gerard Guenther shared the view.
Being stabled down on Rice Road, we are very fortunate to have Keeneland as a training facility all to ourselves for a couple months while the sales are conducted. Great atmosphere for any horse #MottRacing

The @jockeyclub requires New York to operate under its own set of rules for racing silks, while owners racing in other states are basically free to design their silks as they wish.
In New York, owners face multiple restrictions - including being limited to just three letters on their silks.
My guess is these rules date back to an ancient era of regulation and control that serves no real purpose today. It’s time for The Jockey Club to let go of this power and allow NYRA to give owners the same freedom to design their silks that they have everywhere else.
When Dave Portnoy (@stoolpresidente) redesigned his silks for @gogogreys, we actually had to make TWO different sets - one for New York and one for everywhere else.
It’s 2026. This is ridiculous.
This seems like a simple fix. Let’s fix it for everyone.
How’s Al Today wins the $250,000 @keenelandsales September Colts Allowance!
