Juvenile Trial Watch – Warwick Farm

Tara Madgwick - Friday October 7

The big wet in Sydney meant the barrier trials on Friday morning went ahead on the polytrack at Warwick Farm with two heats for juveniles producing winners sired by Snitzel and Exceed and Excel and both are full siblings to stakes horses.

First heat went to the Ciaron Maher and David Eustace trained Snitzel filly Tabata Set, a full sister to Group II placed Willinga Beast, who is entered for the Group II ATC Roman Consul Stakes this Saturday.

She ran at the official trials finishing last of six behind Gimcrack runner-up Perfect Proposal, but was not knocked around that day when she got tired on the heavy ground and found this task a lot easier.

Tabata Set was bred and sold by Arrowfield Stud.

Tabata Set had a nice pedigree update last weekend as she is the third foal of Time Check (USA), who is a half-sister to Sayf Shamal (USA), the dam of last weekend’s Listed VRC Maribyrnong Trial winner Zulfiqar. If Willinga Beast happens to win the Roman Consul then that will be two new stakes-winners on the page in a week!

The second heat for colts and geldings was run in slower time and produced a quinella for Godolphin and Exceed and Excel with quality colts Barber and Stanislaus hitting the line half a length apart.

Barber is the full brother to Group III winning sprinter Manicure from Group III winning Lonro mare Trim, while the runner-up Stanislaus is bred the same way being from stakes-winning Lonhro mare Calaverite and he is the half-brother exciting Group winning colt Golden Mile, the favourite for this Saturday’s Group I MRC Caulfield Guineas.
