Entered for a couple of maidens at the weekend and also left in the Railway on Sunday at the declaration stage.
This could be another decent 2 year old for Bolger.....
Any information on his breeding lads ?

Not really a lot to go on, dam's family is quite minor and not many winners or even runners to go off. The sire's interesting, second season, family of Dansili but again no idea how classy he makes his progeny but the raw material are there.
Bolger trains his 3 year old brother Agallamh (unraced) so he must see something in the dam (or have a share in her?). Interesting with the entries though, he usually likes to leave one or two of his better ones in the big races to see if they cut up at all. Will look out for him at the weekend. |

JSB's best two year old allegedly

ta ben.

By:
He has sent 10 mares to the US to be covered by the sire ! No New Approach from what i'm told, more in the Chabal mould
|

By:
best two year old he has this year....worst kept secret
will go off very short price unless it's in the railway stakes. There's wads of money waiting for him to run for the last month or so |
|
By:
will JB aggressivelly campaign this one on bad ground iyo ... let's hope not ..

Gets an entry into the railway stakes [:o]

interesting, wil be a tough test on his debut
|

maybe they're going to hype him up so they can sell him to Godolphin
 |

By:
runs tomorrow. Group 3.

i would have thought dunboyne express is the value here. this bolger horse will have to be some machine to win first time out, and samuel morse i dont like at all.

By:
did he run well ?
|
|
By:
looks a small type and lacking in scope. sadly no new approach or teofilo. ran ok but crazy price in hindsight, have to be a group one horse to win such a race on it's debut and do you want to take 6-4 that he is that?
|
|
By:
Would nt rule him out after 1 run, shall c wat he does next time
 |
|
By:
Obviously useless
|
|
By:
Wouldnt write it off just yet. Travelled like the best horse in the race until outstayed in the final furlong.May not have handled the ground either so would like to see him on better ground before I make an assessment. Obviuosly held in high regard by connections to make its debut in a group race
|
|
By:
any particular reason why he got one by Leroidsanimeux?
|
|
By:
I don't believe the hype surrounding any of Bolgers horses. Seen it all before.
|
|
By:
soft ground....cantered home.
Plenty to like about the debut. Certainly will end up better than the 2 of ballydoyle's |
|
By:
Just wondered are there any examples of horses beaten 10+ lengths on debut that went on to be any good?
|
|
By:
her sire was beaten 23.5 lengths on his debut :o
|
|
By:
your fishing/being sarcastic right A_T ?
 |
|
By:
tbf, I expected more from the horse yesterday even IF it was debut in a group race. The reasons being that Jim Bolger sent out Lush Lashes on Debut to win the Goffs Million which is a group race in all but name. He also sent out Moineach
 to win a G3 on Debut, too. |
|
By:
Better groung should help him, they probably felt they had to get a run into him considering he has probably been ready for a while

In the Phoenix Stakes Sunday
|
|
By:
Am I missing something here? why is this horse not 1000/1 for the race, if he wins the Phoenix stakes I will suck of my father.
|

By:
Biblical place lay etc etc...
|
|
By:
fine effort today
|
|
By:
Cracking run, sure to improve again
|
|
By:
Not bad for a biblical place lay!
He is a group 1 horse alright with bags of scope to make a very decent miler. in fact he is the one I would take out of the race as Zoffany is well exposed and Strong Suit looks a bit like damaged goods. Glor Na Mara has only had 2 runs and to finish second in a group 1 is pretty decent. however the setback for Dunboyne Express was a shame as he absolutely slaughtered Glor Na Mara last time, and although it would certainly have been closer I think he would have won again. |
|
By:
Everything slaughtered Glor Na Mara last time out. Renarkable improvement.
|
|
By:
Would not agree with the damaged goods comment tbh. He has only had one more run than Glora and was ridden under different tactics today.
The one horse I would put a line through though is the winner, Zoffany, as he is exposed like you say Cry. |
|
By:
How can you put a line through Zoffany? He won the race going away. Just because he's had more runs than the other two, doesn't mean there's less improvent in him.
What I saw today, if they meet again in the National Stakes. The 7f is going to suit Zoffany even more. |
|
By:
zoffany exposed. I find it hard to see how this can be said. He has hacked up in a couple of small races. Wins a group 1 when having to make up 4 lenghts in the final furlong in his first real race. bred to be better over further. bred to be a 3 year old. If anything he is the least exposed of the 3 protaginists
|
|
By:
The way Zoffany quickened from the furlong pole really took my eye. Hughes prob expected the obrien crowd to belt on seen as Zoff had won over 7 but this wasn't the case and SS was quite keen in front. Still it would be hard to see SS reverse the form especially over further.
|
|
By:
As a son of Dansili there should be an awful lot more to come from Zoffany, lots of horses have bad runs at Ascot
|
|
By:
Rock Of Gibraltar also ran plenty of times at 2 (made it's debut in the exact same maiden race as Zoffany at Leopardtown in April
 ) and was beaten a couple of times as well, yet he still trained on to be a half decent 3 year old. On pedigree Zoffany has plenty of scope to be a very decent miler at 3. |
