LEXINGTON, Ky. – German Horse of the Year and leading sire Lomitas has died at age 22.

The Racing Post has reported the Niniski horse was euthanized in Germany due to failing health, ending one of the most eventful equine lives in racing.

Overdose’s unbeaten record came to a crashing end at Baden-Baden on Sunday as the Budapest Bullet weakened to finish seventh as the 3-5 favorite behind the 7.80-1 Amico Fritz in the Group 2, $89,000 Godene Peitshce, Germany’s championship sprint race.

Misty for Me handed even-money favorite Memory a resounding defeat in the Group 1, $300,000 Moyglare Stud Stakes at the Curragh on Sunday as she led throughout to take the seven-furlong race by a length from Laughing Lashes.

One of four juvenile fillies trained by Aidan O’Brien in the race, the 10-1 Misty for Me was given a superb ride by Jamie Heffernan as she held off the late challenge of 7-2 second choice Laughing Lashes through the final 1 1/2  furlongs. Kissable was a neck farther back in third with O’Brien’s first string Together fourth, another half-length behind.

Memory is the odds-on favorite for Sunday’s Group 1, $300,000 Moyglare Stud Stakes, the key Curragh test for juvenile fillies in Ireland, as she steps up to seven furlongs for the first time in an attempt to win for the fourth time without defeat.

A member of Richard Hannon’s powerful stable of 2-year-olds, Memory is a Danehill Dancer filly who has won the Group 3 Albany Stakes and the Group 2 Cherry Hinton Stakes, both at six furlongs. Richard Hughes will ride in her first try outside of England.

The saga of Overdose continues at Baden-Baden on Sunday when the undefeated Hungarian sprinter will be tested in Germany’s premier dash, the Group 2, $89,000 Goldene Peitsche at six furlongs.

Chinchon, unseen since his breathtaking come-from-behind victory in the United Nations Stakes at Monmouth Park on July 3, is preparing for a North American campaign this fall at his home base in Chantilly.

Chinchon returned to France immediately after the United Nations, since when his trainer, Carlos Laffon-Parias, has mapped out an ambitious schedule for the 5-year-old son of Marju, who closed like a rifle shot to defeat the now-retired Take the Points by a handy 1 1/2 lengths in the 1 3/8-mile United Nations.

Dream Ahead provided William Buick with a big transatlantic double at Deauville on Sunday as he scored a convincing victory in the Group 1, $448,000 Prix Morny. With the hurrahs still ringing in his ears after an exhilarating victory aboard Debussy in the Arlington Million just 15 hours earlier, Buick steered the victorious Diktat colt to a 13-1 triumph in Deauville’s premier juvenile event.

Libranno, perhaps the best of Richard Hannon’s five juvenile group-race winners this year, heads a contentious Group 1 Prix Morny at Deauville on Sunday. A six-furlong sprint worth $448,000, the Morny includes five group-race winners at this still-early stage of the 2-year-old season, but Libranno is the only one of them to have succeeded twice at that level.

Sole Power, a 100-1 rank outsider, upset runner-up Starspangledbanner in the Group 1, $374,000 Nunthorpe Stakes at York on Friday as a second 100-1 shot, Piccadilly Filly, filled the third spot in the five-furlong dash.

Midday finally beat Sariska at York on Thursday when she cruised to a three-length victory in the $483,000 Yorkshire Oaks, largely because Sariska refused to race. The 85-40 favorite in the 1 1/2-mile Group 1 contest for fillies and mares, Sariska stood as still as a statue as the gates opened, a look of helpless frustration covering jockey Jamie Spencer’s face as her seven rivals sped on their way.
