Sebring's Ringerdingding Blows Them Away in Sandown Guineas

Mark Smith - Saturday November 17

Few racehorses are blessed with the withering burst of acceleration so ably demonstrated by Sebring's three-year-old son Ringerdingding in Saturday's Group II Sandown Guineas (1600m).

Coming off a win in the Listed Springtime Stakes at Flemington last week, Ringerdingding stormed home from the tail of the field to defeat Seabrook (Hinchinbrook) by three-quarters of a length with Long Leaf (Fastnet Rock) a long neck back in third.

The Group 1 Australian Guineas at Flemington next March has been pencilled in for Ringerdingding who advances his record to 4 wins, 1 second and 1 third from 12 starts with earnings of $347,295.

"He is a bit heart in the mouth I suppose because he gets back and lets rip late," Weir said.

"He took all of the straight to get them and going forward he is a beauty.

"Now he's got to be targeted towards the Australian Guineas, he is definitely the sort of horse that should be heading to that race."

A $170,000 Inglis Premier purchase from the Three Bridges Thoroughbreds draft for B2B Bloodstock, Ringerdingding was bred by Three Bridges in partnership as they purchased her dam Maybe I through Paul Willetts for $120,000 at the Inglis Broodmare Sale in 2015.

Ringerdingding is a half-brother to this season's stakes-placed two-year-old Salome and is the second winner for Group III placed Red Ransom (USA) mare Maybe I, a grand-daughter of dual Group I winner Flitter.

Now with B2B Bloodstock, Maybe I was covered by Ringerdingding's sire Sebring last year and has produced a colt.

Sebring has 42 yearlings catalogued for the Gold Coast In January.
