How impressive was maiden winner Tigger Tahnee (Towkay-Smoke and Fire by Hula Chief) at Stratford last Thursday? The Kim Grant trained, bred and owned four-year-old won by nearly four and a half lengths with his ears pricked!
Towkay had another domestic winner the following day when the Kevin Hickman bred Moonofklairessa (Towkay-Mulan Magic by King’s Theatre) scored over 1600m at Timaru.
Another excellent season in Hong Kong for Towkay wrapped up this week when Ocean Roar (Towkay-Crystal Jet by Clay Hero) scorched the turf to win over 1000m. Towkay also had two second place finishers on the same card.
Per Incanto’s seventh individual winner for the season looks a horse well worth following. The still rather unfurnished, leggy gelding, had over four lengths between him and the third place finisher, while the winning time was nearly a second faster than the highly rated winner of other two-year-old event on the card.
Rule The World who was bred by Buzz and Suzie Williams, George and Luce Williams , and Anna and Ben Petro, was a $15,000 purchase from our 2014 Karaka Festival draft by his trainer Mark Rogers.
Nadeem sired the quinella in a 1300m event in Queensland last Thursday when Spring Rose (Nadeem-Rosa Brava by Thunder Gulch) defeated Court Clown (Nadeem-Our Greta by Rory’s Jester).
