Fillies’ Classic step-up ahead for Sudbina

NZRacingDesk

Kingsclere Stables couldn’t have won last year’s Gr.2 David & Karyn Ellis Fillies’ Classic (2000m) more convincingly with Prowess (NZ) (Prowess), and have a chance to go back-to-back on Saturday with Sudbina (NZ) (Almanzor). The recently retired Prowess won the 2000m feature by five lengths, an effortless performance that may be tough to emulate for her younger former stablemate, although a last start victory at Trentham in the Gr.3 Desert Gold Stakes (1600m) suggested Sudbina is swiftly improving. The daughter of Almanzor will line-up in a star-studded Group Two event…

Kelsos unveil another exciting filly

NZRacingDesk

A trip to Melbourne last year not only gave Ken and Bev Kelso their biggest moment in racing, courtesy of Legarto’s (NZ) (Proisir) victory in the Gr.1 Australian Guineas (1600m), but also a filly that could prove to be just as exciting. The day following Legarto’s Guineas triumph, the Matamata couple trekked out to Inglis’ Premier Yearling Sale and were taken by an Alabama Express filly out of Shadow Hill Thoroughbreds’ draft, and went to A$120,000 to secure her in association with bloodstock agent Dean Hawthorne. “I had an order…

Busuttin and Young Rocking Sandown

NZRacingDesk

Trent Busuttin and Natalie Young were quick to make an impact at Sandown on Wednesday, taking out the first two races on the card with a couple of promising gallopers. Well-bred three-year-old filly Rocking The Boat (NZ) (Ocean Park) saluted in tenacious fashion on debut in the opening event, settling off the pace and then fighting right to the line under Luke Currie’s riding after she hit the front early in the home straight. Young was impressed with the professionalism that Rocking The Boat showed at her first trip to…

NZRacingDesk

Habana turned in an uncharacteristically below-par effort at his most recent outing and Lance Noble is understandably prepared to give the five-year-old the benefit of the doubt and move on. The son of Zoustar finished at the back of the field in the Gr.1 Thorndon Mile (1600m) and his Karaka trainer has taken a forgive and forget approach ahead of Saturday’s Gr.1 BCD Group Sprint (1400m) at Te Rapa. Habana will be one of three feature race contenders for the stable, with Aquacade in the Gr.1 Herbie Dyke Stakes (2000m)…
