- Ir 92,000gns yearling trained by JAR Toller. Won 3 races between 5-6f at 2yo to 3yo. 6f Group 1 winner at 3yo. Won 2 from 5 at 2yo - 5f maiden on June 15th debut and 6f Conditions race on third run August 1st. Placed in 6f Group 2 Gimcrack and 5f Group 2 Flying Childers
- To stud in 1999 and a just above average record in producing 2yos winners and sprinters although lacking a high class 'star'. Best British runners before 2005 have been Boogie Street, Monsieur Boulanger & If Paradise (all three trained by R. Hannon), Compton's Eleven and Bigalos Bandit. 2005 2yo group saw his best results with Godfrey Street (R Hannon) winning the 5f Group 2 Flying Childers, Hunter Street the 5f Group 3 Cornwallis and Pacific Pride placed in the Coventry Stakes. In a lacklustre year for 2yos it is hard to say that the two Group winners were better types than his previousbetter quality runners.
- 2yo winners almost exclusively at 5-6f and only one at a longer distance in the period 2003-05. Gets winners from April onwards but hints that better types win from June forwards.
- He had 42 yearlings sold in 2005 for an average just over 20,000gns and an indication of his position as a popular sire. Gets a range of physical types but notable for getting an above average number of bigger 2yos. A number of these are not the classic, compact, sprinter physiques and can appear relatively lengthy and 'boaty' but can still show sprinter pace. Examples of this type would be Malapropism & Captain Saif (2002), Boogie Street and Compton's Eleven(2003), Bigalos Bandit (2004) & Pacific Pride (2005).
- Another solid year in 2006 with 10 winners, mostly at 5-6f, although none at higher class.
