June 1st: Wolverhampton
6f Auction |
Made a lowish price at a British sale.
By underused sire with solid record with producing sprint 2yos from limited
opportunities, occasional with good quality. Fine for producing early 5-6f
2yos that can win on debut.
The sire has made a good start to 2005 with two debut wins from two runners
both for trainer B. R. Millman. These winners are two of the best 2yos
seen so far in 2005. His other runner has also won at a low level.
Dam unplaced over middle distances and has produced 3 minor winners, two
who cost less than this one.
Veteran trainer has an interesting record with 2yos. Backing all of his
debut runners in the last four seasons would have led to a large profit.
This is because he gets his 2yos fit and ready to compete on debut and
they usually run in suitable races. The stable does not appear to bet so
he regularly gets long priced winners and places with his better types.
The problem is spotting which are the better types among the many lesser
2yos unless you can be on-course. One clue is that the earliest debuts
tend to include more of the stronger debuts.
He has had three unplaced debuts in 2005. The earliest debut who was unplaced
improved notably STO and a good second after minor support. If she had
run to that level on debut she would have been competitive to place/win.
