Mark Smith - Saturday November 11

Newgate Farm’s Tassort sired his third winner from four runners when the favoured Onemoretwomany made a winning debut over 1100m at Ascot on Saturday.

Ridden aggressively by Brad Parham to take up the running, the Neville Parnam-trained colt was on tired legs to defeat the Rommel gelding Battle Commander by a short-neck with the Awesome Rock gelding Ah Kum three and a quarter lengths back in third.

A $12,000 pinhook for Premium Bloodstock Services from the Kingstar Farm draft at the 2022 Gold Coast National Weanling Sale, Onemoretwomany made $70,000 to the bid of Fantail Holdings from the Ruby Racing & Breeding draft at the 2023 Perth Yearling Sale.

Bred by Kingstar Farm, Onemoretwomany is a half-brother to the very talented Extreme Choice mare Wollombi, winner of the Group III VRC The Vanity and was fourth behind Skew Wiff in the Group III Hong Kong Jockey Club Stakes on Melbourne Cup Day.

Their dam Hazlebrook (Hinchinbrook) was purchased by kingstar Farm for $22,000 from the Widden Stud draft at the 2018 Inglis Australian Broodmare Sale.

Hazlebrook foaled a colt by the Extreme Choice stallion Tiger Of Malay on August 20.

Tassort made a statement with his first runner in the first stakes race of the season for juveniles with Manaal in the Group III Keeneland Gimcrack Stakes at Randwick and Astapor was a 5-length winner when on debut at Rockhampton on Friday.
