Almanzor
Exciting young prospect Nucleozor will be given his chance at attaining black-type in the coming months following his pleasing debut victory at Wingatui on Saturday.Bred and raced by Te Akau Stud and Westonlea Bloodstock, the son of Almanzor had two previous trials, placing behind subsequent multiple Group performer Poetic Champion over 850m at Te Awamutu last November before winning his 800m heat at Riccarton last month.Punters took note of his trial form, backing him into $3.40 favouritism in the Dakota Boutique + Lifestyle (820m) ahead of stablemate Discretion Rules at $3.50.Nucleozor was caught three-wide with cover through the middle stages before improving five-wide at that turn and under the urgings of jockey Ashvin Goindasamy he showed a good turn of foot late and was able to reel in the Shankar Muniandy-trained Enterprise to win by half a length, with stablemate Discretion Rules a further three-quarters of a length back in third.“It was a really good win because it’s hard to sit wide, especially over that short distance, and then find the line like he did,” said Mark Walker, who trains Nucleozor in partnership with Sam Bergerson.“Hunter (Durrant, Riccarton stable foreman) is doing a fine job with the horses in the South Island. He’s a gun track work rider and that’s a big help with these young horses.“He’s (Nucleozor) definitely up to black-type level and we’ll give him that chance in his next few starts.”Durrant was pleased with Nucleozor’s debut showing and is looking forward to watching him take on stakes company in the near future.“He (Nucleozor) travelled down well and has a good constitution on him. He just wants to eat and work, he’s so professional,” Durrant said.“We gave him a quiet trial at Riccarton, behind runners, and he did it nicely in winning, and he’d worked great since then.“He’s pretty laidback, they both are, and it was great to see Discretion Rules hit the line well too. Lily (Sutherland, jockey) felt Discretion Rules would improve for it, but he’s very quiet as well and does everything right.“They’ll have some stakes race options coming up for them, and also Quintefeuille, who won on 10 February at Riccarton.”Bred and owned by Te Akau Racing principal David Ellis and Weston Lea Bloodstock’s David Peacocke, the Te Akau Racing-trained dam, Nucleonic, impressed winning on debut over 1200m as a two-year-old, while granddam Mexican Rose was Champion two-year-old and three-year-old in Singapore, having first impressed when winning two of her three starts in New Zealand.“Greg Tomlinson (Nearco Stud) and I bought Mexican Rose,” Ellis said. “We sold two O’Reilly colts out of her for good money and her weanling topped the sale in 2016.“She was pretty smart, Nucleonic, and this is her third foal, so it’s great to get another promising horse like this early in her breeding career.“The Peacocke family has had a lot of success with Te Akau, racing Avantage among others, and have a long family involvement in racing.“We won the same race last year with our homebred Cu Chulainn and it was great to do it again with Nucleozor.” The family had another pleasing result on Saturday, with Nucleozor’s full-sister Qali Al Farrasha gaining black-type when runner-up behind Positivity in the Gr.3 Sunline Vase (2100m) at Ellerslie. – LOVERACING.NZ News Desk

Our shuttle stallion Almanzor was the dominant force in the fillies’ feature at Ellerslie where his daughters Positivity and Qali Al Farrasha quinellaed the G3 Sunline Vase over 2100 metres.Their performances saw their odds for the G1 New Zealand Oaks tumble with the former now an $8 equal favourite for the Trentham Classic with Qali Al Farrasha moving in to $12.Trained by Andrew Forsman, Positivity was making her fifth appearance and was trapped deep before rider Masa Hashizume let her stride along to sit in second spot.She got to the front early in the run home and stayed on strongly to defeat Qali Al Farrasha, who came on well from back in the field.“That was so good and she has got better with every run and she didn’t have a lot of luck in her previous two,” stable representative Gemma Hewetson said.Positivity had copped interrupted runs when midfield in both the G3 Desert Gold Stakes and the G2 David & Karyn Ellis Fillies’ Classic.“Andrew has always had a big opinion of her, she’s kept improving and is a lovely filly.”Bred by the late Sir Patrick and Justine Lady Hogan with Peter Walker, Positivity was bought out of Woburn Farm’s draft at New Zealand Bloodstock’s National Yearling Sale by Ben Kwok for $160,000.She is a daughter of the stakes-winning O’Reilly mare Pussy O’Reilly, who was also runner-up in the G1 Makfi Challenge Stakes.

Tony and Calvin McEvoy’s patient handling of Bavicia looks set to be handsomely rewarded.The Ballarat trainers have taken their time with Almanzor’s son who was in a league of his own when produced second-up over 1800 metres on the Hillside course at Sandown.The lightly tried four-year-old lobbed along in fourth spot before he strode to the 250 metres from home and romped home by three and a-quarter lengths in the hands of Luke Currie.“He’s a horse with a future and he was fantastic,” Calvin McEvoy said.“He won over 2000 metres last prep and he’s got so much improvement to come.”Bavicia finished a creditable sixth in the Listed Morphettville Guineas 11 months ago before he was given a lengthy break and ran sixth when resuming over a mile at Bendigo earlier this month.“He’s been a big, immature horse who we bought at the breeze-ups in New Zealand and has needed time. He’s fully mature now and can go a lot further,” McEvoy said.Bavicia was originally purchased out of Curraghmore’s New Zealand Bloodstock National Yearling Sale draft for $260,000 and realised $330,000 when reoffered by Phoenix Park at the Ready to Run Sale.He is a son of the Guillotine mare Tricoteuse, who has unraced juvenile colt by Almanzor, from the family of the G1 New Zealand Thoroughbred Breeders’ Stakes winer Arlingtonboulevard.

He was a lovely horse to train, showed his class and ability at a very early stage and was such a sound horse all the way through his career.
Kevin Ryan
I’ve always liked him, he had raw ability as a 2YO and I knew as a 3YO he would be a top-class colt
Opie Bosson
He was hands down the best 3YO in Europe in 2016 and is a top-class sire prospect
