More sad news from Dubai.....

Rest in peace.

Zabeel Stables’ Brazilian champion Tudo Azul euthanized

Tudo Azul, two-year-old male champion in Brazil for 2005-’06, who was purchased last season to race in Dubai for Sheikh Rashid bin Mohammed Al Maktoum’s Zabeel Stables, was euthanized last week after a long battle with an intestinal infection.

“The first 10 days after he arrived from the US where we purchased him, he arrived with pneumonia,” explained his trainer Satish Seemar.

“He was treated but then had a relapse with us when we were hardly training him, and he developed an intestinal infection and could not absorb any food.”

The three-year-old son of Boatman had joined Seemar’s stable last fall after winning four of five starts in his native Brazil for owner Luis Felipe Brandao Dos Santos’s Stud Eternamente Rio.

Victories included the Grande Premio Associacao Brasileira dos Criadores e Proprietarios do Cavalo de Corrida (Brz-G1) in Rio de Janeiro and the Grande Premio Ipiranga (Brz-G1) (Brazilian Two Thousand Guineas), the first leg of Sao Paulo’s Jockey Club Quadruple Crown series for three-year-old colts on the turf.

“Our plan was to nominate him for the UAE Derby - he would have been the perfect type for the Derby, unless, of course, he proved himself better on the turf,” added Seemar.

Sad news.....

From TT.

Candy Stripes dies of colic at age 25

by Pete Denk

Candy Stripes, the sire of America’s reigning Horse of the Year Invasor (Arg), died at Haras Carampangue, in San Antonio de Areco, Argentina, due to colic on Wednesday at age 25.

A two-time leading sire in Argentina, Candy Stripes also is the sire of 2005 champion grass horse Leroidesanimeaux (Brz) and the broodmare sire of Candy Ride (Arg), who retired undefeated after being named Argentina’s champion miler of 2003 and winning all three of his American starts, including a track-record performance in the Pacific Classic Stakes (G1) at Del Mar.

Candy Stripes has sired ten champions in America, Argentina, Canada, and South Africa. From 1,010 foals of racing age, Candy Stripes has 465 winners, 59 stakes winners, and 43 group or graded winners. His progeny earnings are $28,843,164.

A winner of two of six starts in two seasons, Candy Stripes earned $47,357, finishing second in the 1985 Poule D’Essai des Poulains (French Two Thousand Guineas) (Fr-G1).

By Blushing Groom (Fr) and out of the Lyphard mare Bubble Company (Fr), Candy Stripes was bred in Kentucky by Allen Cowen.

He stood at Haras La Quedabra in Argentina from 1988 to 1996. After spending four years in America, he returned to South America following the 2000 breeding season.

Rest in peace.

Blue on Blues, who was to run today at Nad Al Sheba.

A sad week in Dubai.....

Run in peace.

'Real favourite' Blue On Blues dies

Tragedy struck Satish Seemar’s yard this week when one of his most popular horses in training Blue On Blues died.

The Argentine-bred performer made his debut for the Seemar operation in December 2005 and went on to win on four of his 12 starts for the leading UAE trainer.

His final victory was earned on his penultimate start last month, when he won a valuable handicap at the Dubai International Racing Carnival at Nad Al Sheba.

“It was devastating,” said Seemar. “He was a real favourite and it’s made everyone very sad. It was a suspected heart attack at the yard, and there was nothing we could do.

“He was so consistent, always gave his all, and was becoming a bit of favourite for the public too.”

The son of Lode had won three of his five starts this season and was due to run at tonight’s DIRC meeting.
