Breednet Track First Season Sires at the Trials

Tara Madgwick - Monday Apr 11

As we move into the back end of the season, interest remains in the progeny of first season sires stepping out at the trials so Breednet are tracking them and our report for this week features 12 sires with unbraced trial winners in the pipeline.

The Warwick Farm trials on Monday featured a couple of heat winners on the polytrack by first season sires Impending and Ribchester (IRE) that both raced last year and are now back for their second preparations.

The report catalogues the performance of all progeny of first season sires up until they race offering a quick way to see anything of interest that may be in the pipeline.

These horses remain on the list up until they go to the races, so the list only features UNRACED two year-olds.

First season sires with trial winners on this list this week are: Caravaggio (USA), Heroic Valour, Highland Reel (IRE), Impending, Kobayashi, Overshare, Pariah, Ribchester (IRE), Russian Revolution, Spieth, The Mission and Thronum.
