June 30th: Newbury
6f Maiden Fillies' |
Owner bred by Maktoum Al Maktoum.
Exceptional sire has above average record with British raced 2yos. Wins
form 6f+ and usually from mid-season onwards. Good proportion of higher
quality runners and above average FTO win record.
Dam very well related and showed superior form in three runs. Wininng
a 2yo maiden, a 10f Listed race at 3yo and then finishing second in the
Oaks as the strongly backed 7/4f. She has a disappointing record at stud
having produced just one moderate 5yo AW winner.
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 eleven debuts in 2005 with one win and two places. The SP has
not been a good indicator of what is expected with some quite well supported
Maktoum owned 2yos running poorly. Interesting to see how the STO runs
go with the four so far showing no marked improvement. Has he slightly
changed his strategy and had the earlier debuts less ready? Or does he
have a a moderate group?
Trainer runs two in the race with the other owned by Ahmed Al Maktoum.
M Dwyer rides this and L. Dettori rides Kitmaah.
