Racing Summary
DATE PROFILE/COMMENTS
01 May The interesting newcomer is Astroleo for Mark Tompkins. The trainer hasn't had a debut winner in the five years 2003-7 and the only one he had in 2002 was with Babodana to give you an idea of the quality of the one that did win. That's a total of 1 win in 132 debuts in the last 6 years. In the last five years as many as 11 of the FTO juveniles have placed but only 3 of them proved to be winners during the season. He has an odd record in that he gets places with his early debuts suggesting he has chosen the competitive ones to run but they don't then improve and convert to winners. Astroleo is an early start for him in recent years and being chosen as the first debut suggests some natural ability but the pedigree is mixed and not obviously 5f (worth noting the prevalent Soft ground this Spring hasn't put much emphasis on pure speed in the turf racing over 5f). The booking of Jamie Spencer is bound to catch eyes but overall probably a placer at best.
