Juvenile Trial Watch – Rosehill

Tara Madgwick - Friday Jul 24

Rosehill trials on Friday morning featured seven heats won by juveniles that include exciting Home Affairs colt I’m Ya Huckleberry.

I'm Ya Huckleberry (red and green colours) has raced once for a close second in the G3 Breeders Plate

The Waterhouse Bott trained I’m Ya Huckleberry was one of the stars at the official 2YO  trials last spring. He beat a couple of colts that day in Paradoxium and The Machine Gun, who have both emerged as stakes-winners this season and was second on race day in the Group III ATC Breeders Plate to Incognito.

Sidelined after that with injury, I’m Ya Huckleberry was having his second trial this prep over 900m and made it two trial wins from two outings.

Ridden by Adam Hyeronimus, he flew the gates to lead and was kept up to the mark to the line to win by more than a length and will be pretty forward in condition when he goes back to the races.

I’m Ya Huckleberry was a $400,000 Magic Millions purchase for Gai Waterhouse & Adrian Bott Racing/Kestrel Thoroughbreds from the draft of Kia Ora, who retain a share in his ownership.

They sold his yearling three-quarter sister by I Am Invincible from Key at the Gold Coast this year for $1.2million to Knine Inc/Rising Sun Syndicate.

Additional winners were: Lava Flow (Too Darn Hot (GB), Mille Feuille (All Too Hard), Definition (Kermadec), The Wildling (Wild Ruler), Harry’s Hussey (Harry Angel (IRE), Temptation (Lucky Vega (IRE).
