Trained by AP. O'Brien. Won 9 races between 6f to 10f at 2yo to 3yo. At
2yo won 3 from 3, successful in 6f maiden and 7f Group 3 (Aug 29th) in
Ireland and the 7f Group 1 Prix Salamandre in France. Won 6 races at 3yo,
5 at Group 1 between 8-10f and runner-up in the Breeder's Cup
-
To stud in 2002 and a good start with his first two crops 2004-5 which
have included the Group 1 winners Maid's Causeway (8f), Footstepsinthesand
(8f) & Shamardal (7f-12f). However, it is worth noting that he has
had strong support at stud and the success should be judged in the context
of the quality of mares he has covered.
-
Well above average record with British raced 2yos and a notably good strike
rate. Gets winners from 6f upwards from July with the best strike rate
at 7f. Sharmadal and Maid's Causeway in 2004 have provided the only wins
at Listed level or higher and no wins in that range in 2005.

8 yearlings sold in 2005 for an average above 100,000gns.
