Bred to be useful and made an encouraging start when fourth of 12 in a Newmarket maiden in July, form which has worked out very well. Absent since but the one to beat with improvement to come.
|
With hood applied for debut, showed a bit to work on amidst inexperience when fourth of 5 in novice at this course (7f) 2 weeks ago. Looks one for further down the line, though.
|
Night Of Thunder colt. Dam, runner-up at 7f, sister to very smart winner up to 9f Diego Velazquez and closely related to very smart winner up to 2m Broome out of useful 2-y-o 5f winner Sweepstake. Makes plenty of appeal on paper.
|
35,000 gns yearling, £320,000 2-y-o, resold 2,000 2-y-o. Too Darn Hot filly. Dam, 1¼m winner, half-sister to smart winner up to 1¾m (stayed 2m) Red Galileo out of useful 1½m winner Ivory Gala. May just be better for this first experience.

Forecasts
Billecart (1/6), Wuood (5/1), Too Darn Spicy (28/1), Shimmering Spirit (80/1)
A 380,000 gns purchase as a yearling, BILLECART knew his job on debut when fourth in a hotly-contested Newmarket maiden last summer and looks to hold leading claims on his return. Well-bred newcomer Wuood could be the one to give the selection most to think about.
