Bio
Pilkington Racing presents a physically imposing colt with great strength and presence, and the temperament to match it. This horse hugely impressed us at each point of inspection! He is gorgeous to look at, a good size and has plenty of bone. He showed a confident and professional nature throughout the sale, is well balanced and comes from a good family that continues to improve.
First season sire Alabama Express (Redoute’s Choice) is out of a half-sister to Giga Kick and was undefeated at 2yo prior to becoming a WFA G1 winning 3yo over 1400m.
Bouquet De Flores (Street Cry), was placed at Listed level and has Group 2 and Listed winning siblings that have been racing in the UK, France and Dubai. She was trained in France under the Godolphin banner and was most effective over sprint distances, making this a very fast family of great depth.
He breezed through the breaking preparation, including 10 days on track at Hawkesbury. His second preparation included working at 3/4 pace on the grass prior to his latest spell. He is now ready to come back into work for his third rotation.
We expect this horse to debut around January, and make his presence felt in the Sydney Autumn 2yo races. We feel he is likely to reach his full potential at 3-years-old.
