Primed for his return with three trials, the Gai Waterhouse and Adrian Bott
trained Fiery Red led all the way for Tommy Berry and kicked hard to the line
to win the 1100 metre maiden by half a length over highly rated first start
Quantico, a $1,050,000 Inglis Easter colt by I Am Invincible."It's good to see him put it all together. He's a much stronger horse this time and we saw that today," said Adrian Bott.
"We'll take him through his grades this preparation and he's probably best suited over sprinting trips."
A $160,000 Inglis Classic purchase for Aquis/Gai Waterhouse and Adrian Bott from the Newgate Farm draft, Fiery Red was bred by the Kolivos family, who raced his sire Pierro.
He is the first winner for Blazing Snitzel,
a half-sister by Snitzel to stakes-winner Excuse My French from the family of
Group I winner Julinsky Prince. Blazing Snitzel also has a yearling colt by
Pierro and is in foal to Zoustar.
Fiery Pierro looks a bright prospect for his sire Pierro, who stands at Coolmore this spring at a fee of $88,000.
