May 9th: Wolverhampton
5.1f Auction Fillies' |
Made lowish price at Tattersalls Ireland sales.
First season sire made good impression at sales and yearlings sold well.
B2yoR reviewed 29 of his yearlings and they were a good group and he should
have a good 2005.
Sire won over 7f at 2yo but reverted to a top class sprinter at 3yo.
Sire has had four runners in 2005. One ran poorly on debut before showing
good form STO (for this trainer). The other three have run solid debuts
in better races.
Dam has 6f+ pedigree and was unraced.
Trainer used to have his own small stable but was appointed as private
trainer in owner J. Fretwell's new, purpose built stables in 2004.
When the trainer had his only stables the better 2yos used to rate around
60-65 on debut and improve 14lbs STO. Interesting to see his approach in
his new position.
The trainer has had four runners so far in 2005. The first expensive runner
for this owner ran a poor debut after each-way support but improved notably
STO. The next two runners won on debut which probably gives the wrong message.
Neither of these were 'wound up' and won at 14/1 and 8/1 after only needing
to be mostly competent to win moderate races where the favourites failed.
His fourth & fifth debuts in the last 2 days for this owner and were
well beaten.
In summary an unproven pedigree and the sales price low considering how
well the sire's yearlings sold. Likely to be uncompetitive here.
