Final Fields LQP Festival Features

I don't put that much emphasis on the jocks - surely the stable would not have put de Melo up without him putting a leg over her in work - and as for positioning her, from draw 2, all he has to do is to follow Silvano's Pride and let her go coming to the 500; as for the 3 yr olds - looking at the form, Princess Calla was beaten 3 lengths by War of Athena in the Thekwini at level weights - Queen Supreme got beat by WoA nearly 2 lengths giving her 9 kgs (and needing the run a bit I assume) - so giving the 3 yr olds 6 kgs, should not be an issue - we will see

QUERARI - Supreme Vision by Visionaire.

Supreme Vision has 7 offspring of the first dam Sweet Virginia. More notably the Justin Snaith trained 6 y.o b.g Do It Again

OUR WORLD

I really like this horse. What a beautiful bred chestnut filly whose grand dam Aquilonia has offspring like One World

I still can't figure out why the great SENTINEL won 29 races inc many GR1 from 1000Mts to 1600m

Yet his full brother.....ARMED GUARD only managed to win ONE race...?:whistle:


Both bred by Hartford Stud....
No Reprieve....out of Winter's Eve.

Eish Sentinel...... those were the days of great racing.... remember Row To Rio and Abbey Boy and Glory Be.....

Celtic Sea

CAPTAIN AL - Ireland by Mark Of Esteem.

It's dam Ireland has produced offspring such as Greyville long distance runner Donald Mcdonald.
