Since relocating to Gooree Stud, Everest hero Yes Yes Yes has continued to deliver winners with over 40 this season and a new season juvenile winner at Ballarat on Tuesday is held in high regard by the stable.
A homebred for Brae Sokolski’s Yes Bloodstock and partners, promising gelding Harry Met Sally was last seen finishing fourth to Gin Twist in the Listed VRC TAB We’re On 2YO Stakes at Flemington last month.
Dropped back to maiden grade for this assignment over 1200m by astute trainer Mark Walker, Harry Met Sally proved much too good for the race favourite King’s Adress from the Ciaron Maher stable.
He surged away at the finish to win by nearly two lengths in a dominant display for Lachlan Neindorf.
“Lachie rode him last start, so he understood the horse and coming here today, there was obviously no tempo, but the race experience and that fitness was definitely on our side over that last furlong,” said stable representative Ben Gleeson.
“We’re thrilled to get a win for Brae (Sokolski) . It's his first winner for us in those silks, so I'm just very pleased for the support and the reward.
“He's going to be a horse that they'll have a lot of fun with. I'm sure as a gelding, he's going to really come on in knowledge and physique-wise in the next six months.
“I really think it's a horse that can go through the grades and eventually end up as a stakes horse.”
Harry Met Sally is the seventh winner from seven foals to race from Group III placed General Nediym mare Agueda.
Yes Yes Yes has had steady stream of winners since the start of this year including many metro winners such as Maybe Moet, Yoyo Yeezy, The Wheelbarrow, Yes Yoshi, Let’s Go Barbie and Mrs Goldberg.
