MESSAGE This year’s MARHO Championships racing festival is more memorable for being the 20th

anniversary of this exciting and significant event.

With the best interests of the industry at heart, MARHO directors and members have always made an effort in the face of challenges to hold this racefest that is much-awaited by participants and racing fans alike.

We thank our loyal and generous sponsors for helping us sustain this event – foremost among them Amb. Eduardo M. Cojuangco Jr., the founder of MARHO and chairman of San

Miguel Corporation, as well as SMC President & COO Ramon S Ang. SMChas consistently supported this event since it was first held.

To the Philippine Racing Commission, its chairman Andrew A. Sanchez, and its Commissioners; and to the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office and its vice-chairman and general manager Atty. Jose Ferdinand M. Rojas II, our gratitude for the reliable sponsorships.

We also thank Philippine Racing Club for their unstinting cooperation that makes this event successful, as well as for their generosity and logistical support.

To our other sponsors this year, our gratitude as well: Andok’s Corporation, Esicor, Jade Bros. Freight, Ciara Marie Foundation, Transprint Corporation, Shelltex/Uratex, and Siomai House, and others that may join the event after this magazine goes to press.

We wish participants the best of luck, and to guests and viewers, may you enjoy racing at its finest this MARHO Platinum weekend!

ANTONIO G. DE UBAGO Jr. President

MESSAGE It seems only yesterday that we came up with the idea for the MARHO Championships

program, and now we are celebrating its 20th edition – how fast time flies when you’re having fun!

The program’s aim is to bring racing and breeding closer to international standards; provide incentives for local breeders to improve bloodstock in the country; and for racehorse

connections to bring up their runners to championship standards.

It is interesting to look back and see how humble our beginnings were, and to see how big the program has become after 20 years. Thanks to the leadership of MARHO through the

years, which has not wavered from this path, the program is stronger and more prestigious than ever.

We also look to the future and vow to continue what is now an annual tradition eagerly awaited by participants and aficionados.

To everyone who supported the MARHOChampionships racing festivals through the past two decades, please accept my sincere thanks, as we set as our sights on the years to come.

Happy MARHO Platinum Day!

THE Metropolitan Association of Race Horse Owners (MARHO) Founders Cup (MFC) racing festival last 28 March

2015 was a day marked by longshot and big dividends.

The 12-race fiesta de karera was held at the Metro Turf racecourse and was the first time MARHO held an event at the track owned and operated by businessman Norberto B. Quisumbing Jr.’s Metro Manila Turf Club, Inc. (MMTCI).

Also held that day was a MARHO general membership meeting and election of officers.

Congratulations to the new slate of directors headed by Javier, Leyte Mayor Leonardo M. Javier Jr. as chairman.

Ramon S. Bagatsing Jr.MMTCI through the generosity of Dr.

Quisumbing gave added prizes of P25,000 to the winners of 10 MFC races.

Dr. Quisumbing also put up a P50,000 added prize for the winner of the MARHO Founders Cup held in honor of the association’s 15 original founders who established what is now the sport’s oldest horseowners’ group in 1974. He was himself one of the original members of MARHO.

The MFC was won by longshot Cat’s Silver (Ultimate Goal x Cat’s Gold), owned by Mayor Abalos, trained by CC Angeles, and steered by Jonathan Hernandez.

MARHO provided an added prize of P50,000 for the MARHO-Dr. Norberto B. Quisumbing Jr. Cup won by Mabsoy (Art Moderne x Springstreetballet), owned by Reli de Leon, trained by DV Bungar, and ridden by Jeffrey Bacaycay.

Each winning groom that day also received a P1,000 added cash prize.

Cote d’Azur started the trend of longshots that by the end of the day yielded good dividends in the exotic betting.

MARHO directors and members also gave to the winners of each of the 12 MFC races free stud service certificates to stallions Bwana Bull, Ultimate Goal, Warrior Song, Trust n Luck, Self Feeder, Fort

Dignity, Ibarra, Minsk, Zap, Smart Farda, Shining Fame, and Reenact.

Also held that same day was the Philracom 3YO Fillies Stakes, won by Running Rich Racing’s Miss Brulay (Cat Brulay x Near Miss), trained by Renato and guided by jockey Kelvin Abobo.

On hand to award the trophies to the winners were Philracom commissioners lawyers Ramon S. Bagatsing Jr., Wilfredo de Ungria, and Victor Tantoco.

All races at Metro Turf that day were run over 1,400 meters. n

GENERAL PROVISIONS1. There will be no handicap weight allowance for apprentice jockeys in the MARHO Cup Championship Races.

2. The maximum number of entries for each race shall be fourteen (14). In case there will be more than 14 declared entries for any of the races, horses that have won the highest prize money as of the day of declaration will have entry preference. Owners whose horses were not accepted due to the oversubscription of entries will receive a refund for the declaration fees paid. Fees paid for horses that have already been accepted and qualified shall be non-refundable.

3. The residual of the guaranteed prizes for the said races (guaranteed prize less prize of the day) shall be paid directly by MARHO to all the winners.

4. Declarations and entries in all of the MARHO Cup Championship Races are accepted on the condition that all claims and objections arising out of a race with respect to any interpretation of any rules or condition of the races shall be decided by MARHO and the host racing club. *

* Includes all horses that have already passed the barrier/trial races. * Only local-bred and MARHO-nominated horses are eligible to run. * Sires of entries must also be MARHO-nominated, otherwise the runner, even if nominated, will not be allowed to compete.

A supplementary fee shall be paid to render the offspring of a non-MARHO nominated sire eligible to participate. * Non-nominated horses may compete, provided that a supplementary fee is paid equivalent to one-third (1/3) of the total

prize money offered for the race.

Since then, the group has cemented its position in the industry as a growth leader seeking the upliftment and promotion of the sport for the benefit of all its

stakeholders.One of the most

significant accomplishments of MARHO is the MARHO

Championships program, initially known as the “MARHO

Breeders Cup” when it was created in 1996 by MARHO

Chairman Leonardo M. Javier Jr. and then-president Aristeo G. Puyat.

From a simple event with only two championships for 3YO horses, the MARHO Championships program has grown so popular among racing fans that it is among the most awaited events of the year. The 2004 edition broke all sales records

when it was held at Santa Ana Park in Makati City.

Mandaluyong Mayor Benhur C. Abalos,

MARHO president in 2005, arranged that year’s edition of

the MBC, the tenth anniversary of the event. “A Decade of Champions” was the theme for that year.

He also took charge of MARHO activities from 2006 to 2009, including the MARHO Founders’ Cup and the Jade MARHO Breeders’ Cup of 2009, commemorating MARHO’s 35th anniversary.

Twenty Yearsof the MARHO Cup Championships

MARHO was established in 1974 by a group of 15

horsemen led by businessman and diplomat Eduardo M. Cojuangco Jr.

By JENNy ORTuOSTE

Platinum is rare, durable, and enduring. It is so pure that is it hypoallergenic. It symbolizes endurance, determination, and overcoming challenges.

This year’s event metal embodies concepts of prestige and exclusivity – exactly what MARHO sees its MARHO Cup championships to be.

PCSO Sprint: 1,100 meters

THE tricky 1,100-meter distance makes the MARHO-

PCSO Platinum Sprint a test of stamina and finishing kick!Five game contenders

will be vying for the honor of becoming the MARHO Platinum – PCSO Sprint Champion namely: Barcelona (Art Moderne- Spanish Coin) owned by Maverick Leonardo T. Javier, trained by Renato “Atong” R. Yamco; the Ruben S. Tupas-trained coupled entries of Mandaluyong City Mayor Benhur C. Abalos Jr., Cat’s Silver (Ultimate Goal - Cat’s Gold) and Never Cease (Ultimate Goal-Never Left); Ik Hou Van Jou (Wind Blown – Lamborghini) of Ms. Leonora S. Pasion, conditioned by “Atoy” C. Sordan, Jr.; and, Sta. Clara Stockfarm, Inc.’s Nemesis (Quaker Ridge-Kaindara Gold), trained by Nestor E. Manalang.

Records-wise, Never Cease, again employing the services of its riding partner Jonathan Hernandez, appears headed for victory based on the 1:09’ it was able to muster for 1,200-meters at Metroturf on more than one occasion.

This fact exerts pressure on Nemesis to give chase at once or try to wrest the lead early. If the early challenge materializes or in anticipation of the strategy, the tacticians of the coupled entry can opt to have Cat’s Silver act as pacer.

In 2010, MARHO’s then-president, businessman Eric R. Tagle, continued the MARHO legacy by way of the 15th MARHO Cup Championships, tagged “MARHO Kinse,” and the succeeding “MARHO Swift Sixteen,” “MARHO Daisy-Siete,” and “MARHO 18th Edition.”

Last year, the first under the leadership of president

Antonio G. de Ubago, was the occasion dubbed MARHO Ruby, the 19th staging of the event in line with the organization’s landmark 40th anniversary.

This year, MARHO Platinum is the celebration of the 20th staging of this iconic racing festival that has become one of the sport’s annual traditions and a proving ground for champions. n

In any event, a mistimed charge made by Chris Garganta could prove to be weakening for both, and thus leave the door open for late charges by the other runners like versatile Ik Hou Van Jou, piloted by Fernando Raquel Jr. whose 1:05’ for 1,100-meters turned in last Aug. 25 is about one second and a fraction of second slower than what Never Cease can do if left alone unbothered in the early stages of the race.

Ik Hou Van Jou will however miss the services of its regular rider who has understandably chosen to guide Never Cease instead.

THE MARHO Juvenile Fillies has historically been a favorite betting race for the aficionados. Five promising champions

from the stables of Dr. Nick Cruz, Rafael Abacan, George Raquidan, Antonio “Tony” V. Tan Jr., and Stony Road Horse Farm will offer bettors an even spread to choose from.

In any event, the 1:22’ time for the 1,300-meter distance it registered last September in Carmona (which translates to about 1:19’ or faster in Naic), may yet prove to be insurmountable.

Familiarity might just work for Port Angeles and her declared rider, regular pilot Mark Angelo T. Alvarez, when they take on the track distance they seem to be most comfortable with. Trained by Danilo R. Dela Cruz, Port Angeles is a progeny of US-born Cat Brulay out of Australian mare Teresina.

This Stony Road Horse Farm filly won three of five races, failing in the 1,000-meter race on Aug. 30 won by Spectrum; and in the Philracom Juvenile Fillies stakes race last Oct. 25 won by Subterranean River, owing partly to a poor start and perhaps because Port Angeles missed the services of its favorite rider.

Raquidan’s Real Flames, however, appears to have a different outcome in mind. To be steered by a seasoned Class A jockey, Antonio B. Alcasid Jr., the connections of Real Flames naturally expect a creditable performance. Oyet’s expert riding skills may just be more than adequate to fashion a quick and easy finish for this filly by Real Spicy out of Eternal Flame.

This bay filly won its Oct. 5 assignment in a field of eight runners with plenty to spare. Also worth noting is that the time Real Flames registered, a 1:03.2 in a field of seven runners in its novato run at San Lazaro Leisure Park is a shade quicker than that turned in by Port Angeles in the latter’s own novato assignment at the same track.

This Time not giving its best is not happening. Tan’s bay filly, trained by Ruben S. Tupas, won by only a neck last Oct. 9 in a longer 1,400-meter race in Metro Turf with a time which is about a second shy of that made by Port Angeles on Oct. 4 at the same track.

But, with This Time to be piloted by pacer master Jonathan B. Hernandez, who is to say then that this runner will not reign over the shorter distance? As far as its connections are concerned, This Time, a progeny of USA sire Warrior Song out of Australian dam Almarli, everything in its favor will come to be and, maybe This Time the victory will be theirs. Besides, aside from Bowties and Charms, This Time can brag of having competition experience at Santa Ana Park.

Incomparable, a chestnut filly (Shining Fame-Elite), is slow-starting in

some of its races but has shown it can pull off a quick dash out of the gate and maintain speed

from start to finish. Abacan’s promising champion managed to win and place in most of its races. Who knows if the Tupas training has already polished this runner into a champion?

On the other hand, Dr. Cruz’s Bowties and Charms hopes to find magic in its new rider Jeff T. Zarate. Trained by A. C. Sordan, Jr. this filly by Bwana Bull (USA) out of Dream Romance (Aus) should avoid a slow start with Zarate in the saddle and remain within striking distance from the front runners in the early part of the race; by the time the runners reach the long home stretch of Santa Ana, it might have more than charm left to fashion a victorious finish. n

THIS year’s gems in the rough can be found in the juvenile races. The stables of Dr. Nick Cruz, Herminio S. Esguerra,

Antonio “Tony” V. Tan Jr., Makati Councilor Ferdie T. Eusebio, and Stony Road Horse Farm will showcase their two-year-olds’ bloodlines in the MARHO-Platinum-Philracom Juvenile Colts race.

The Danilo “Dave” Dela Cruz-trained Underwood is likely to dominate the race banking on its impressive wins in its last three outings. This quick starter (Real Spicy-Kayumanggi) owned by Stony Road Horse Farm may find the shorter distance of 1,300-meters an easier sprint compared to its 1,400-meter win last Oct. 4.

What is even more impressive is that Underwood ran off-the-pace in the third leg of the Philracom Juvenile Stakes race last Oct. 25, dealing the vaunted Spectrum its first loss.

Stark, also trained by Dela Cruz, might not only shadow Underwood but, given the chance, also

outrace him after finishing a similar time in a 1,300-meter race last Sep. 3.

Another foal of Real Spicy (out of Arriba Queen), Eusebio’s Stark followed its half-brother, Underwood, to the finish line in their last two outings against each other. The long home stretch of the Naic track may prove to be a factor in Stark’s favor.

Owner/trainer Esguerra might just spring a surprise with Dewey Boulevard (Hook and Ladder – Aboutthetown). Winning its last race in “miles ahead fashion” with a blistering 1:12’ for the 1,200 at Santa Ana Park less than a week after its impressive novato race, Dewey Boulevard could become another star under the guidance of star jockey Fernando M. Raquel Jr.

Two colts, sharing both trainer and sire, complete the field of juvenile colts. Bite My Dust (Shining Fame out of Tiwi Magic), owned by surgeon Nick Cruz and trained by multi-awarded Ruben S. Tupas, placed third in its last two 1,300-meter outings. Under seasoned pilot Patty Dilema, it will likely be ridden to a strong finish.

Lucky Toni hopes his name will work for him, like its new jockey Andrew “Boom-boom” R. Villegas. Tan’s colt, another Shining Fame progeny out of Tiger Wind, might find this shorter distance

race to be more favorable to its quick but short style of running. Hopefully Tupas will have made

the necessary adjustments in time to fashion a sterling performance in this race. n

BITE MY DUST

THIS year, fillies Gentle Strength and Hook Shot will try to show their male counterparts that gender is not an issue in

racing — or at least not in this race. Of the two, perhaps Gentle Strength (Ultimate

Goal- Shadow of the Moon) of Mayor Benhur C. Abalos has the better credentials to outshine the colts in this race. This Ruben S. Tupas-trained runner turned in a 1:39 for the mile at Santa Ana Park when it placed second to Court of Honour last Sep. 6.

While she was carrying only 52 kgs. at the time, there was a prolonged head-to-head battle between her and the eventual winner in that race; and, only a week before, Gentle Strength won a 1,750-meter race.

This time she will be running adequately rested and will likely submit an equal or better time for the mile. Gentle Strength is versatile and can pace or wait patiently before attacking the lead and it will be piloted by an equally versatile rider in Jonathan B. Hernandez.

While Hook Shot (Hook and Ladder-Local Rules),

Santa Ana Park 3YO Colt and Filly Mile: 1,600 meters

to be ridden by Kelvin B. Abobo, has had impressive performances for the distance at the racing meet venue, it has not been as actively competing as Gentle Strength.

But Hook Shot’s owner Mr. Joseph C. Dyhengco can rightfully remain optimistic. After all, its coupled entry Sky Hook (Hook and Ladder out of Amber Shore), to be guided by heady Patty Dilema, won its latest mile assignment at Sta. Ana in wire-to-wire fashion with an impressive time of 1:39’ and has locked horns with the likes of SuperV, Princess Meili, and Icon, showing everyone that he is a tough nut to crack.

Completing the line-up are the Tupas-trained, Nardy Naval-owned Shintaro’s Speed, a progeny of champion Ibarra out of Touch Wood who will be brandishing an ace rider in Jeffril T. Zarate; and Super Spicy (Real Spicy-Kayumanggi) of owner-trainer-breeder Herminio S. Esguerra, with Fernando M. Raquel Jr. carrying the whip. n

THE Classic has always been a crowd drawer and this year is no exception. The owner

of the winner of the lung-busting 2,000-meter event will not only be richer by a cool million pesos, but also, together with the names of the winning horse, trainer and jockey, will have his name forever carved in Philippine horse racing history and in the hearts of the passionate Filipino racing fans as champions of the 2015 MARHO Platinum Classic.

By pAtrIcIA S. DIZON and cOMM. wIll j. A. DE uNGRIA

The entries of the well-respected Abalos stable show how serious the connections are at achieving success. The “People’s Champ” Hagdang Bato (Quaker Ridge - Fire Down Under) has been fielded by the good Mayor

of Mandaluyong City, Benhur C. Abalos

Jr., while his son, Benjamin A. Abalos III, has entered two Bwana Bull progenies Kanlaon (out of Never Left) and King Bull (out of dam

Nothing Impossible).Suffering only five setbacks

in its multi-titled racing career, crowd darling Hagdang Bato is expected to dominate the sales and rightfully so. Of this field of seven contenders he is the most experienced in distances longer than a mile.

In addition, familiarity between Hagdang Bato and its pilot Jonathan B. Hernandez is certainly not a problem. Admittedly, its June 2015 loss to Skyway in a 2,000-meter-contest in Malvar and scratching in a 1,750-meter race scheduled last August have left some quarters entertaining the idea that maybe Hagdang Bato is still not in tip-top shape.

guiding and appeasing Caloocan City Vice Mayor Macario E. Asistio III’s Biseng Bise (Reenact-

Real Queen) to conserve energy. Kanlaon, conditioned by C.C. Angeles and ridden by

come-from-behind expert Val Dilema, and the Ruben Tupas-prepared King Bull, ridden by Andrew Villegas, will prefer to

be the back markers.The late second canto or early third

quarter will see Hagdang Bato, Marinx, and Biseng Bise

more excited and trying to wrest the lead. From the late third up to the wire, Kanlaon and King Bull will make good use of their reserve strength to try and fashion blistering finishes. n

Regardless of whether or not the doubt has basis, Marinx (Sir Cherokee-Syrinx), owned and trained by Mayor Sandy Javier and steered by the able hands of Jeffril T. Zarate, carrying the lightest handicap weight of 54m, will certainly give her all.

While the early stages of the race will probably be contested by Fernando M. Raquel Jr. atop Herminio S. Esguerra’s Manalig Ka (Real Spicy - Tatler Cover) against Jordan Cordova riding Joseph Dyhengco’s Anthony Francisco-trained Hot and Spicy (Real Spicy-Bulakena), judging by the recent runs of Marinx, Zarate will opt to be a second liner to Hagdang Bato, who is not expected to be rushed by Hernandez, with Mark Alvarez
