Racing Summary
DATE PROFILE/COMMENTS
April 23rd: Ripon 
5f Auction Fillies'
  • Made acceptable price at Tattersalls Ireland sales.
  • First Season Sire only ran at 7f as 2yo. Made moderate impression at sales. B2yoR reviewed 9 of his yearling sales and most were moderate. 
  • Sire has had four moderate runners so far.
  • Dam was a precocious 5f 2yo that did not progress and she has produced two competitive 2yos that made early debuts.
  • Trainer has a variable record with 2yos and had his best season by a long way in 2004 when he had a good group. Runners tend to be competent on debut and with the better 2yos in 2003-4 he has managed to get FTO wins in weaker northern races with runners rated between 65-72. 
  • This is his second runner of 2005 and he had had 2 debut winners by this date in 2004. The first debut was in second place to inside the last furlong before losing her action in a race this week.
  • In summary a pedigree which might produce a 70-75 sprint 2yo but the sire is unproven. Likely to be competent on debut. Joint topweight in this auction race. Profile [63]

    May 4th: Chester
    5f Maiden
  • 7/1 with a 3lb apprentice and made a poor debut in soft ground at Ripon. Lost a little ground breaking right handed and never got into the race. Made some late progress to finish a poor 5th of 10.  Estimate [16]
  • Trainer's debuts in 2005 to date have all been uncompetitive and this is his first STO runner. Poorly drawn in 13 of 16 and has J Spencer riding rather than the apprentice. Profile [53]
