2013 Debut Runs Page

Background Information
  • 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. A poor season with his British raced 2yos in 2006 with a single winner from 10 runners with the majority costing 6 figures at the sales. 7 sold at european sales in 2006 with the average 140,000 guineas and the median 47,000.
  • 2005 to 2012 Wins List.
