Racing Summary
DATE PROFILE/COMMENTS
March 31st : Declared
5f Conditions - Brocklesby
at Doncaster
  • Made a good price for the DSL sales.
  • By First Season Sire that won over 6f in first half of its 2yo season. Sire made good impression at sales and likely to get some early sprint winners.
  • The sire has has made a good start with two winners from three runners. One a minor winner with a runner that cost 800 gns the other with a type that looked likely to come into his own over 7f and has already won over 5f.
  • Dam unraced and related to sprint winners.
  • Good trainer that supports 2yo racing. His debut runners tend to be competent and the FTO wins come along with better runners who can win on better ability. However, he tends to choose his earliest debut runners well and most are competitive to place and win if they are useful+.
  • He has had one runner in the period 2002-4 who finished second in a below average race in 2003 and might have won but for being taken on a tour of the course by her jockey (who rides this one). This runner has a slightly better profile than that runner.
  • In summary nearly all positives with the sales price allaying some doubts over the dam. The start made by the sire with his runners and this one chosen as the early debut by a trainer that is a good judge suggests a very strong contender in this race.  Profile [77]
  • March 31st: Doncaster
    Post Race
  • Weak in the market at 12/1 and some very mild each-way support to get to 10/1 which suggested the trainer would be happy with a solid run on debut but did not expect to win. He got a slightly slow break and had to be driven at times to pick up. He was taken over to the far rail after halfway which may not have been the best ground (although the subject of draw bias here in April is a tricky one). 
  • Ran a creditable debut but without ever showing the zip and readiness to suggest he's superior. The trainer has run two in this race in 2001 and 2003 and those two finished third and second before winning comfortably STO. Neither of those two won again in the season although both got OR figures above 80. On the evidence of this run a similar progression for this one would be expected as a minimum. Estimate [61]
  • May 4th: Chester
    5f Maiden
  • Ran a acceptable although uncompetitive debut in the Brocklesby. The form of that race has looked moderate and the 2nd & 5th-8th have been beaten subsequently. His trainer's earliest debut runners have looked behind his normal level and the first STO showed good improvement to win comfortably in a similar race 4 days ago.
  • Ought to show good improvement and has a usable draw in 5 of 16 with 4 newcomers drawn inside him.  Profile [74]
