Racing Summary
DATE PROFILE/COMMENTS
April 18th: Windsor
5f Maiden
  • Made solid but not high price for Tattersalls part 1 sales, especially considering he is a full brother to a 100+ rated horse. Unsurprisingly the stable that bought that horse for 5k bought this one.
  • Reviewed at the sales and smallish but with solid build. Not athletic enough behind. Looked capable of being a competitive minor winner but not useful.
  • Sire has good record with 2yos and regularly gets examples of precocious 5f winners (take the winner of this race in 2004 as an instance).
  • Dam has produced a useful 6f 2yo winner who showed better form over 8f at 3yo+ from the same sire. Other than that she has a moderate record.
  • Trainer does not target FTO wins although runners are usually competent on debut and make the first 6 places in appropriate races. The earliest debuts in the season tend to be the 2yos winners (of varying ability) for the stable during the season.
  • In summary the pedigree and sales review to be a minor sprint winner and aided by his early season debut but lacking scope to develop. Expect a forward showing but unlikely to be able to place unless it is a weak race.  Profile [61]
  • April 18th: Windsor
    Post Race
  • Medium size with slightly better build. Ready type and lacking strong scope to grow and develop. In theory ought to be an ok 'medium' sprinter his movement behind was tight and not fluid and a slight issue. His behaviour was just about acceptable although he was unsheathed for most of the pre-parade
  • 9/1 volunteer third favourite and the trainer's first 2yo runner of 2005. A neat and ready type and fit enough on debut. Ran a poor race in the stands' side group and was never competitive. Slightly poorly behaved before the race but not enough to explain this poor effort. Estimate [45]
  • 14th May: Newbury
    6f Maiden Div II
  • Poor debut and slightly poorly behaved. Trainer has not got going with his 2yos yet. Profile [61]
  • May 25th: Newmarket
    5f Novice
  • 25/1 seventh favourite of 10 at Newbury with a 3lb apprentice. In a mixed group showed the expected improvement. Used his experience to track the pacemaker by 2L at halfway. Made an effort and led as the too free front runner faded 2F out. Led for around a furlong until the two better colts (both on debut) moved up either side of him at 1F out. Squeezed out as winner To Sender hung left across him and lost around a length. Wouldn't have been able to compete with the first two who pulled away but held on for third in front of the stalled leader and a newcomer who had lost three lengths at the start. Estimate [64]
  • Ought to be able to improve a little further here and receives 7lb from the penalised topweight..  Profile [68 + 7 = 75]
