Racing Summary
DATE PROFILE/COMMENTS
March 30th: Declared 
Folkestone 5f Maiden
  • Well above average price for the cheaper end of the two Doncaster sales.
  • Reviewed at the sales and rated 71 and with slightly above average chance of being competitive at 2yo. Small but with solid build if lighter behind, deep in front and a good, progressive mover. Overall he appealed as a minor early 2yo winner.
  • By an underused sire whose record has declined as he gets less mares and they have less quality. However he is still capable of turning out the odd competitive sprint 2yo each season, it's a question of picking which ones.
  • Older dam has a patchy career and definitely seems limited in terms of the quality she can produce. 
  • Younger trainer with developing stable and has tried different approaches to debut runs with 2yos. However his earliest debut in 2002 and 2004 were competitive to place and one won. In 2004 the earliest debuts produced a win and two seconds at 14/1, 10/1 and 9/2. None of these three improved after their second run. However, most of those debut places were in weaker races than this promises to be.
  • Trainer has two runners and not obvious from jockeys which is preferred.
  • In summary, the sales price (given his pedigree) and the physical review at the sales suggest he should be the competitive little early 2yo that the trainer won early with in 2004. Likely to be competent on debut and might get a place if the race proves not up to the expected standard. In any case, one to assess closely for STO potential. Profile [60]
  • March 30th: Folkestone
    Post Race
  • Was 11/2 joint third favourite and the first string of his trainer's two runners. Lost some ground at the start (as did his trainer's other runner) in a slow race on soft but recovered to be in touch before a solid fade later in the race. 
  • Trainer had his early runners in 2004 ready to compete to their best in 2004 but some minor excuses for this one. On sales review, trainer approach and early debut he is worth another chance to show better form, probably at Lingfield. Estimate [25]
  • April 5th: Declared for
    Folkestone 5f Maiden
  • Trainer ran two in the Folkestone race 6 days ago and both run again here, both with the same jockeys.
  • Trainer has had one placed runner from three 2yos that have made a STO run after a break shorter than 8 days.
  • Both runners showed inexperience and fades on debut here. This one has the profile to do better. Profile [58]
  • April 5th: Folkestone
    Post Race
  • Drifted from 9/2 to 11/2. A better run than his debut and he broke well and ran slightly freely in the lead. Led for 4f and looked to travel well and had the winner (for example) under a little pressure for pace at times. 
  • However, faded notably (again) in the last half furlong looking as if he didn't stay. Estimate [60]
  • April 11th:  Declared  
    Lingfield 5f Maiden
  • One of four runners in the race whose form is tied together by two maiden races run in slowish & slow times on turf at Folkestone. This is a different test.
  • On the evidence of his run last time this downhill 5f on better going should be a help to him. Likely to be involved for the lead and prominent although possibly not quite getting home. Profile [66]
  • Interesting to note that the jockey that rode him on his previous two runs switches to a likely outsider for a small trainer.
