June 20th: Windsor
6f Auction |
Made a solid price at the Doncaster St Leger sales.
Sire has a below average record with 2yos and his wins tend to come from
July onwards. He also has a better record over 7f but does get 6f winners.
He has had 7 unsuccessful runners over 5f in 2005 but has had two FTO winners
of 6f races.
Well bred dam showed just about average winning form over 7f at 3yo. Her
previous, cheaper, foal showed moderate placed form at 2yo.
Trainer is notable as a 'Show FTO or nothing' type of trainer. He usually
has his debut runners fit, professional and ready to perform to a high
level within their ability and if they do not place, then they are probably
moderate.
He has had six debuts in 2005 with one win, one place and four unplaced
(two well supported for Maktoum family and run poorly). The SP has not
been a good indicator of what is expected.
Trainer's only FTO win in 2005 has been with one of his own sales purchases
like this one. R Hughes rides despite R Hannon having two in the race.
Poor draw in 1 of 16.
Trainer has not had a 2yo debut at the course since 2002 when he ran 2
poor one shere.
