One to Follow Steps Out at Trials

Tara Madgwick - Friday March 28

For anyone that listed to our Tara Talks Racing podcast this week, John O’Shea tipped us a long range horse to follow for the year and this import trialled at Randwick this morning with James McDonald to ride.

Galileo five year-old Klondike (GB) was having his second trial in Australia and stretched his legs nicely in the run to the line to finish second in his 1200m heat.

Previously trained by William Haggas, Klondike is a stayer that has won three of nine starts from 2200 to 2800m winning at Group III and Listed level in France and the UK.

Purchased last year from the Tattersalls Horses in Training Sale for 240,000 guineas by SackvilleDonald, Klondike has not raced since last September.

A half-brother to Group II winner Kemari from Group III winner Koora, he comes from a Black type packed female family that includes Group I St Leger winner Milan.

Below is his best win in France.
