Racing Summary
DATE PROFILE/COMMENTS
May 12th: Carlisle
5f Maiden
  • Made a lowish price at the Doncaster St Leger sales.
  • By a second season sire who made an average start in 2004 with a limited number of 2yos. Got winners at 5f from May onwards. He had a 5f winner last week.
  • Dam was unraced and has produced one minor 5yo winner abroad. Her best runner here cost 7.5k and was 3rd over 5f on an early season debut but race only twice more showing regressive form.
  • Trainer normally has his runners competent and ready to compete on debut - particularly from late May onwards. His earliest debuts can be more variable and in 2002-4 many have not developed nor won. In 2005 he has run six 2yos and none has competed strongly on debut including one that was backed from 33/1 to 5/1 at Beverley.
  • In summary a reasonable sales price given the breeding. The trainer has not got going with his 2yos yet and this seems a common theme with the bulk of the stable 2yo winner coming in the second half of the season. He's due a good 2yo debut but on balance this is unlikely to be the one although market support would be interesting. Profile [52]
