Horse racing newsletter: New York trainer banned by tracks
- Share via
Hello, my name is John Cherwa and welcome back to our horse racing newsletter as Santa Anita sets a record for a trifecta payout.
In what was a big story on social media this weekend, horse racing took swift action to ban a New York trainer over his use of a racist term. It started on Jan. 1 when Eric Guillot posted a picture of one of his horses named Grape Soda. It said, “This colt will run next week and has unique name in honor of a TVG analyst.” It was followed by a Black power emoji. “Grape soda” is a racial slur when directed at Black people.
The slur was believed to be directed at Ken Rudulph, the only Black person who is on the air at TVG. Guillot doubled down on subsequent tweets and even sent out a GIF of a Black person making a quiet sign with his finger. Much more extensive reporting on this was done by Bill Finley of Thoroughbred Daily News (you can read here) and David Grening of the Daily Racing Form (you can read here.)
The horse won the first race on Friday in what was supposed to be Guillot’s final race before retiring. This is where things exploded in horse racing circles. Guillot did some backtracking and said the horse was named after a favorite childhood beverage. But, by then, it was too late. On Saturday, there were statements coming out of some major players.
Dave O’Rourke, president and CEO of NYRA: “Racism is completely unacceptable in all forms. NYRA rejects Eric Guillot’s toxic words and divisive behavior in the strongest terms. At this time, he will no longer be permitted to enter horses at any NYRA track nor will he be allotted stalls at NYRA grounds. In addition, we will review further steps may be available to us. Our racing community is diverse, and we stand for inclusion.”
TVG: “TVG commends NYRA for taking swift action on the matter involving Eric Guillot. There is simply no place in society for racism and we condemn his behavior, a deliberate attempt to slur one of our employees, in the strongest terms. Our network will no longer air races in which he has an entry. We also commend the action by new owner Larry Roman to change the horse’s name. We will continue to work toward making racing more inclusive and to attracting a new generation of fans to the sport.”
Aidan Butler, COO of the Stronach Group: “[TSG] stands firmly against the inexcusable actions of trainer Eric Guillot. There is no place in the sport of thoroughbred racing for racism in any form. Our company will not tolerate the use of hateful and divisive language or behavior. [TSG] agrees fully with the New York Racing Association’s move to ban Mr. Guillot from racing and will take the same action. Mr. Guillot is no longer welcomed at any [TSG] track.”
(Note: I use TSG instead of 1/ST because it’s what racing fans know. Whatever marketing genius said this rebranding was the way to go didn’t take into account that the slash makes for a terrible visual and confusion on how to pronounce.)
Now, these statements and actions would be even more bold if Guillot had not just retired. Obviously, it goes without saying that racism in any form should not be tolerated. And, it’s difficult to come up with any explanation that Guillot’s actions were not racially insensitive in the most extreme ways. As a final thought, the quickest way to get me to block a reader’s incoming email is to spew racist thoughts to me. There haven’t been many, but there have been a few.

Santa Anita review
Before we get to the stakes, the sixth race was quite interesting as 99-1 Just a Command finished first followed by 17-1 Funkenstein and Ben’s a Goalie, at 7-2, was third. What does that mean? A record 50-cent trifecta of $31,184. It topped the $1 trifecta of $52,892, set on Sept. 26, 2001. Just a Command paid $201.00 to win. OK, on to the features.
Grade 2 $200,000 La Canada: This race for fillies and mares going 1 1/16 miles was supposed to be a battle between Fighting Mad and Hard Not to Love. But in the end, it was Sanenus who blitzed the field, winning by six lengths. It was the mare’s fourth race since coming up from Chile.
Sanenus paid $17,00, $8.20 and $4.60. Miss Stormy D was second, followed by Hard Not to Love, Never Be Enough, Fighting Mad, Proud Emma and Message.
Michael McCarthy (winning trainer): “Umberto [Rispoli] did a great job, he had to niggle a little bit at her to kind of keep her in the game around the first turn. I thought she was in a great position up the backside and she went up to engage those fillies leaving the half-mile pole. At the quarter, she had her ears up and I love the way she opened up. The La Canada has a great history, a lot of really nice mares have won this race over the years, and this is a nice race to have on her resume.”
Umberto Rispoli (winning jockey): “I’ve been on her several times in the morning. I knew she was a very good filly. [Saturday], I asked her a bit at the half-mile pole and she responded well. At the top of the stretch, she was looking around and I was just hoping she was going to stay focused. She finished well and I think she has more there.”
Grade 3 $100,000 Las Cienegas: This six-furlong race for fillies and mares started very oddly when Oleksandra appeared to clip heels with Superstition a few jumps out of the gate, causing the horse to stumble, and jockey Joel Rosario went flying off, even taking the bridle with him. Rosario missed his mount on the last race, but both the horse and jockey were OK. It changed the complexion of the entire race and Charmaine’s Mia was able to sit just off the lead, move in front by the half and win by 2 ½ lengths.
Charmaine’s Mia paid $35.40, $9.80 and $6.00. Jolie’s Olimpica was second, followed by Superstition, who was moved up to third when Lighthouse was disqualified to fifth. Bohemian Bourbon was placed fourth.
Drayden Van Dyke (winning jockey): “I’ve never been on her before, but Phil just told me she was working lights out. She was sitting on a big race; that’s all I knew about her. He said, ‘Play the break wherever you are, and go from there.’ She was doing it so easy, she had her ears pricked up and she was enjoying herself so I wasn’t taking anything away from her. I knew she was going to show another gear at the top of the lane, if I had any competition behind me that was going to run me down, but I had too much horse for them to catch me. She ran a hell of a race.”
Phil D’Amato (winning trainer): “I’ve learned with some of these horses coming in from Woodbine, that because they’ve got a deeper turf up there, this is their first chance to run over a firm turf and sometimes, they just float over it and she did just that. She had trained phenomenally well on the training track here. I haven’t had a horse get over this training track this well since [multiple Grade I winner] Obviously.”
Sad to report …
Before racing started on Saturday, Cali Caliente, a 5-year-old gelding, suffered what is believed to be a fatal cardiac event while jogging during morning training. Cali Caliente, winner of three of seven races, was doing light jogging on the outside rail when he collapsed. A necropsy will be performed. The death did not appear to be the result of exertion but because it happened on the race track, it will be counted as a racing or training death by the California Horse Racing Board. It would be the second at Santa Anita since the season started on Dec. 26.
Santa Anita preview
Sunday’s nine-race card, back to a 12:30 p.m. start, is heavy on filly and mare races with six of them. I hate to keep bringing this up, but the new racing office seems to be keying in on the horse population and writing races that have decent sized fields. I believe it was longtime racing secretary Rick Hammerle who used to say, just try and get through January and February so you can be strong in March and April. (If he didn’t say that, I’m sure he’ll let me know.) Chris Merz, the current racing secretary, schooled under Hammerle, so if things are strong now, there is reason to feel good about future months.
Sunday might be the first day that there are fewer races on the turf than dirt as there are only four today. The feature is the $75,000 Kalookan Queen Stakes for fillies and mares going 6 ½ furlongs. The favorite, at 2-1, is Qahira for trainer Bob Baffert and jockey Joel Rosario. The lightly raced 5-year-mare has won four of seven starts and is coming off a second in the Grade 3 Chillingworth Stakes at Santa Anita on Sept. 25. Rosario will be the fifth different jockey to ride the horse.
The second favorite is Amuse at 5-2 for Richard Mandella and Drayden Van Dyke. She has won two of 10, but the last win came Dec. 30, 2018 at Santa Anita. She finished third last out in the Chillingworth. Post is around 4:05 p.m.
Here are the field sizes, in order: 8, 5, 7, 10, 10, 7, 9, 6, 11.
Ciaran Thornton’s SA pick of the day
SEVENTH RACE: No. 8 Too Much Heaven (6-1)
Too Much Heaven has won two in a row with Umberto Rispoli riding. That last win was Nov. 5 at Del Mar. Trainer Peter Eurton drops the horse for Sunday’s race in a move that has been profitable for his stable. ‘Heaven has a 3-2-0 record from 6 starts at this distance with all three wins under the guidance of Rispoli.
Saturday’s result: La Gata Elegante was restless pre-race but after the start broke nicely. Racing in second, La Gata took the lead into the stretch but was caught to run fourth. Make a note of this horse next out especially on a jockey upgrade to someone like Umberto Rispoli.

Chris Wade’s LA pick of the day
SIXTH RACE: No. 1 Go To Girl (4-1)
She benefits from solid connections and is a well-bred runner who has earned very competitive figures for this event in all of her six career starts with trouble and track variant factored in. In her most recent effort, this filly broke a little slow and was brushed inward to lose almost a length of ground at the start versus a quality winner who’s the heavy favorite in Sunday’s eighth and final race. With a typical performance expected Sunday in a field with the main contenders (shippers) having a question mark above their head, this runner could and should be a big player for the top spots at a medium mutuel.

GREAT POWER bumped leaving the gate, stalked in the two path, went two to three wide around the turn, angled out in upper stretch, rallied and bested MALAKAI MOXIE late. MALAKAI MOXIE vied for the lead three deep then cleared foes around the turn, led to deep stretch and got caught. DEFENSE WINS raced along the inside, saved ground to the stretch then angled off the inside and gained ground late. SQUALOTORO chased four then three wide around the turn and finished willingly for a minor share. BOB'S SNIPER vied for the lead between rivals, could not keep pace with the leaders into the turn, chased outside a rival to the stretch and flattened out. DAPPER forwardly placed from outside, entered the turn four wide, moved in a path then back out four wide into the lane and never produced a bid. ECOLOGIST off a bit slow to begin, raced off the pace, was along the inside into and around the turn, tipped out in the lane and never threatened. UNCAPTURED HERO broke out and bumped rival at the start, vied for the lead from inside, could not keep pace around the turn and faded in the drive. DYNAMIC DUO dropped back early, angled into the two path, went around a rival and four wide into the stretch and made no impact. ASTROLOGER chased two wide then angled three wide into the lane and tired.
