June 10th: Goodwood
6f Maiden |
Owner bred by Saeed Maktoum Al Maktoum.
US based sire has had only three runners in Britain in 2003-4 and the only
winner was this one's full sister who won STO over 6f after finishing second
on debut in May.
Dam has produced a debut 5f winner that placed in the Queen Mary as well
as well as a winning full sister.
Fifth debut of the season for the trainer.
He 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.
In 2003 & 2004 his first runner of the season was a winner (15/8f &
5/1). His first five debuts in the last two years have produced 2 wins
and 4 places from the ten 2yos. None of the four that were unplaced won
that season.
The first four runners in 2005 have produced one good FTO winner and a
minor place in a weak race.
Trainer runs two in the race and M Dwyer rides the other.
In summary a solid pedigree to produce a 2yo winner and ought to be competent
to show ability FTO if she has it. Estimate [64 + 5 = 69]
